It appears that the new campus, was. in part, designed to prevent student disturbances from reoccnrring, and tailing that, to limn their size and effectiveness. Perhaps operating under the assn in p I i o n that m os I disturbances arise spontaneously from large crowds, the planners envisioned -a sprawling, de centrali/ed campus, lacking a natural nucleus or focal point. union, stud enI T he unquestionably the natural "hub of ihe Main Street Campus and many o i i g in o I the demonstrations over the years, was completely stricken Irom the Pedestrian planning concept. routes, bus terns, ie pul 11uI l changes in elevation and other complex architectural techniques combine to seemingly decrease the chances ot" large crowds spontaneously coining together. Smaller units as centers It is widely acknowledged by o I lie ia I s that University dc-centiali/alion was the driving foice behind the design theory. Pari One ol The Cwh/mis Plan illustrates the theory in a section entitled “Environmental Goals." The plan states: In a large and changing campus, the concept of one center works against the purposes of the University. Under a heading "Purposes of the University” the plan reads: The organization of faculties must allow the University to function as a whole while establishing smaller units that can become centers. This altitude is expressed in the Cmpau Plan numerous times, in both rhetorical and architectural terms. It surfaces repeatedly throughout the design in plans for individual buildings, footpaths, and roadways. The concept of de-centrali/ation, quite simply, dominates the design. Vice-President for Facilities Planning, John Telfer, a expert in the field of campus planning, explained the us? of the de-centrali/ation concept. “Part of it was sociological. We were going through very tumultuous times.” he observed, adding that there “may have been some over-reaction” on the part of planners to collegiate unrest here and across the nation. "Some of the decisions were made with the idea that things were easier to control when they were de-cenlralized,” Telfer said. Split functions of union The relative ease in controlling the student population may have been at the heart of the decision to split the functions of what was Norton Union (new Squire Hall) into six different buildings on the new campus. Each structure would contain some division of the network o!' student organizations and services currently housed in Squire, but not a large enough! proportion to qualify the building as the Student Union. The importance of a student union on a college campus cannot be understated. Squire Hall is a classic example of an ingeniously located, fully functional student pulse center. Most pedestrian routes pass by. or directly through liktl«Hfe;TTt» easily identifiable as a symbol of the students, and appropriately houses all student activities and organizations. The same building was the scene of many strike meetings and demonstration gatherings in 1969 and 1970. Jerry Rubin spoke in its lounges; The Spectrum, the radical voice on campus, cminated from its third floor offices. When demonstrators were chased by riot police for breaking windows in Hayes Hall, they fled to Norton, where other students helped battled the troopers. It is not unreasonable to conclude that, had there been no student union then, there would have been fewer considerably demonstrations and less violence. Elimination of a student center focus of the is carefully disguised in The “symbolic Campus Plan: University.” It is also referred to Although student as the “cross-roads of the many activity junctions can be most campus In reality, the Plaza is only one appropriately accommodated within individual colleges or of several partial “cross-roads academic faculties, there is still a and by no means the most need for centralized faculties. important.

Reiss Managing Editor The Millard Fillmore College Student Association (MFCSA) refused Thursday to allocate its portion of the Bus Board I budget and consequently will no longer be a member of the student corporation’s Board of Directors. Its constituents will henceforth be ineligible to utilize Sub Board’s activities and services. The undergraduate Student Association (SA), the Graduate Student Association (GSA), and the Medical School Polity all signed Sub Board allocation contracts and will now be the participating members. In addition, members from the Dental School Association indicated that they will make every effort to sign the allocation contract by late October, wflile officials from the Student Bar Association (Law School) agreed to sign in the near future. Rift developed Since its inception in the early 1970’s, (an effort to give students control of their mandatory fees), Sub Board has been the organization binding six student governments. However, discord racked the corporation this summer as Board members traded allegations of incompetence and selfishness, resulting in a bi-polar organization. SA found itself on one side, unwilling to accept the fact that it, through was mandatory student fees, undergraduate financing 90 percent of Sub Board’s budget while receiving only five of twelve votes on the Board. MFCSA became the spear earner for the opposite camp, charging that services had been severely limited while threatening to withdraw or reduce their appropriations. The conflict manifested in the refusal of MFCSA and the Dental School Association to fund their respective share of the Sub Board budget. Sub Board disbursing agent has also for a fee acted as the for the six student governments. However, the Student Bar Association and MFCSA have decided to no longer use Sub Board for this purpose. GSA has not as yet signed a disbursing agreement but Sub Board Treasurer Black claimed he is confident that GSA will eventually decide to utilize Sub Board’s disbursing services. Be it resolved Upon Dental School Association no longer be eligible to use the activities and services of Sub Board I freely, and shall be charged non-student or special rates where it applies because of their failure to provide meaningful allocation to Sub Board I, Inc. Further, that the chairman be required to disseminate these restrictions throughout Sub Board to ensure the proper enforcement of these restrictions throughout the various divisions of Sub Board I, Inc.” The ramifications of such a resolution are far reaching. Simply put, students enrolled in Millard Fillmore College and the Dental School will not be extended Sub Board benefits and will be treated according to SA President Dennis Delia, “as students from another university.” Delia termed the situation “unfortunate,” but defended the Board’s decisiion as “the only logical choice,” claiming, “if you want to participate, you have to contribute. Even though only a few people made the decision, a whole constituency will have to suffer. We had no choice in the matter but to pass the resolution once they decided not to appropriate the money.” any No future cutbacks today Delia, commenting on the effects of MFCSA’s withdrawal from Sub Board, indicated that their refusal to appropriate funds was the prime factor in the Board’s decision to cut the Off Campus Housing Office from its budget. The Off Campus Housing Office cost Sub Board $6,000 while MFCSA’s contribution was $13,000. “The dropping of that office,” explained Delia, “was a result of MFCSA’s pulling out of the corporation. We had to cut something and that was a difficult decision. The other alternatives were to cut the Browsing Library, The Spectrum, the Dental Clinic or UUAB (University Union Activities Board). As of today, I see no future cutbacks.” Black said he was disappointed because officials from the Student Bar Association and MFCSA failed to appear at the meeting, despite the fact that they had requested copies of the allocation contracts. Said Black; “We made an effort to help them. Not showing up at the meeting was not classy.” It was revealed Thursday that SA will appropriate $324,oOO, a $29,000 increase over its last year’s allotment, to Sub-Board over 90 percent of the corporation’s budget, GSA will allocate $25,000 the Medical School Polity $750, and Student Bar Association $1,000. It was uncertain at press time how much money the Dental School Association intends to contribute. - MFCSA’s and the Dental School Association’s decision not to allocate funds, the Board of Directors passed unanimously the following resolution: “Be it resolved that those constituencies represented by MFCSA and the recognizing by Denise Stumpo Feature Editor Erie County Sheriffs cards will be issued at Squire Hall, beginning Wednesday in an effort to appease students dissatisfied with this year’s University Identification ID card. The Sheriff card, issued to those eighteen years of age or older, includes date of birth and signature, two most necessary items which do not appear on the University cards. John Baird Longworthy of the Sheriff’s Department said the program will continue as long as perhaps even for a month to accommodate all students who want cards. A fee of $3 per card will be charged. Student rip-off At least one student is less than joyful to hear of this. “The proper information should have been on our cards in the first place,” said one in discontent. “This is an added rip-off. The students lose out; the county makes money.” Questioned Friday about the new card plan. Chairman of the ID card committee Richard Dremuk replied, “It’s news to me. I don’t know anything about it.” Erie County Sheriff Ken Braun explained, “Someone from the University called and asked if we could provide cards for the students. We said we would be more than happy to.” According to Inter-Residence Council (IRC) President Daniel Kinley, Dremuk was notified in writing last spring that lack of pertinent information on the new model ID card would be a problem for students. “Dremuk suggested that we get Sheriff’s cards if we wanted date of birth,” state Kinley. Frustrated victims IRC Executive Vice-President Stephanie Freund contacted University Police, whose job has been made more difficult by the cards this year. They, in turn, contacted the Sheriff’s department about an on-campus visit. Cards will be available in the Haas Lounge area starting Wednesday, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Original birth of baptismal certificates (or copies with a seal) and passports are acceptable as proof of age. Applicants must also show proof of address, such as a rent receipt or a cancelled envelope to an Erie County address. The address need not be permanent, since it will be kept for the record but will not appear on the card. Students who must rely on ID cards for proof of age have reportedly been very frustrated, feeling themselves victims of the piece, especially since security at the Ellicott pub has been tightened this year. ‘They proof everyone who walks iitf the d6or,’ reported Steve Peck, IRC Treasurer, adding that this had rarely been done in the past two years of the pub's existence. According to Peck, one member of an ethnic minority who was proofed at the door caused a scene because he felt the bouncers had been prejudiced in proofing him. The bar had to be closed and the pub cleared until campus security could arrive to fore ibly remove him i.AUUOlVt The Best Selling Novel Is Now A Triumphant New Film.

The Spectrum . Page three �Legal turmoil over insurance policy Last year's Health Insurance Policy for students at this University is in legal turmoil. Members of last year’s Sub Board have not yet signed that contract with the New York. Life Insurance Company. In addition, the New York Life policy was put into effect before it was approved by the New York State Insurance Department (NYSID). Sub Board I, who represents students in that contract, did not sign because a clause stipulated that all premiums had to be paid one month after the commencement of service, September 1, 1976. A Sub Board spokesman said he didn’t receive the contract until mid-October, 1976 and that all student premiums hadn’t and couldn’t possibly have been paid by then. The New York Life Insurance Company was tardy in sending the contract to Sub Board because the company is required to submit all contracts to the New York State Insurance Department for approval. The Chief of Health and Life Policy Bureau at NYSID, George Lafaro, said that the contract under which this University functioned was not approved until October 12,1976. Obviously not practical Therefore, students here were paying health insurance fees in September for a policy that had not been approved until the middle of October. Upon approval, it contained a clause requiring full payment by October 1. Current Treasurer of Sub Board, Dennis Black, stated that such a policy was obviously not practical for implementation. To add to the confusion, there is no seal or number of approval by NYSID on Sub Board’s copy of last year’s contract. This means that in duplicating the contrac*, either the seal didn’t reproduce, or New York Life is the only party with a copy of the approved contract. The contract is currently being examined by a Sub Board lawyer to determine if it can be signed now dr last year’s coverage. The Sub Board spokesman said, “Many letters were written to New York Life explaining the dilemma.” An insurance company representative replied that he “understood the situation and would ignore the clause that invalidated the contract upon lack of premium payments.” However, because there was no apparent legal justification for that statement. Sub Board refrained from signing the contract. Changes in health insurance York Life because of “major dissatisfaction and problems arising from claim payments.” Black alluded to the fact that New York Life was inept. The Student Health Insurance Waiver deadline “They were never set up right, they were not has been extended to Friday, September 23, Sub prepared to offer what they said they would. Their Board I Treasurer Dennis Black announced Friday. operation just didn’t work.’’(See related story this Black cited this year’s change in insurance companies page) “Under the new law. New York Life couldrt’t as the basis for the extension. The mandatory Student Health Insurance policy offer its package to us again,” said Black. The new was implemented last year by the University’s Board law requires pregnancy coverage for policies starting of Trustees, as a measure to protect University January 1, 1977, and New York Life was not Health Service. Local hospitals and private prepared to deal with this. Another major problem physicians had threatened to terminate medical with the former insurance company was its rates. service to students at this University, because Since it dealt with the general public and not students who were referred to private physicians by specifically with students, the company’s rates University Health Service often failed to pay “didn’t reflect that of a college student, but rather doctors’ fees. “This rip-off was widespread,” the overall business community,” said Black. commented Black. This year’s new insurance company pays special attention to colleges and universities, who represent New policy This year, Sub Board and the American its main source of income. The American Accident Accident and Health Insurance Company have and Health Insurance Company represents many designed a comprehensive student medical insurance SUNY schools in addition to Buffalo, as well as program. The new policy benefits include payment numerous private institutions throughout the of up to $1000 for medical expenses incurred within country. one year from the date of an accident.

The new Hall which will handle all student health insurance insurance policy requires all students to present problems. proof of adequate health insurance so as to except When asked to comment on 1 the difference them from the $68 fee. This requirement has created between the two companies. Black said, “There is no an “unnecessary burden on the student by virtually way to tell what thy new insurance company’s profit demanding that everyone call home to obtain policy will be until the end of the year, but they definitely statements,” said one student. offer more.” Black continued, “What costs us $68 Waiver no good with American Insurance would have cost $85 with One reason for this year’s mix-up has been the New York Life.

Samuel P. Clemens Hall, the new "home” of the faculty of Arts and Letters, has met with considerable criticism by the occupants of the S5.1 million structure. The ten story building, designed by Ulrich Fran/.an, is described as “two rectangles put on end with an elevator in the middle of it" by Associate Chairman of the Lnglish Department Fred Sec.

The People's Power Coalition has called for a rally to protest against the proposed i*te increases, a rally sponsored by over 10 local organizations, including the New York Public Interest Research Group (NVPIRG). NYPIRG has been urging students to attend a Public Service Commission hearing tomorrow at 1 p.m. which will determine if NFG's request for a rate increase is justified. The Coalition and NYPIRG have both demanded that NFG pay a rebate of $10 to every gas customer in Western New York. NFG's rate hike should be denied and the gas company should be forced to pay a rebate to all its customers. In addition, it should prepare itself now to be able to provide maximum service to all when the blizzard of '78 strikes. NYPIRG has been granted permission to audit NFG's books, something unprecedented in Western New York. Its findings will undoubtedly place justice on the side of the consumer. The Public Service Commission will hopefully heed the call of justice and not the money of NFG. The hearings are being held at the Buffalo and Erie County Public Library at 1 and 7 p.m. in Lafayette Square, where rallies will take before each. Be there, if you can.

Association's Annual on these recommendations. standards for consultation and for faculty whose notice to Administration unchallenged In its report, the investigating committee emphasizes that SUNY as a whole has not undergone any significant reduction, but rather that the administration terminated the appointments of selected faculty members through a “retrenchment” provision in the collective bargaining Agreement between the State of New York and the United University Professions. Article 35 of that Agreement authorizes the Chancellor or his designee not only to decide on retrenchment but to determine the level at which retrenchment will occur, whether university-wide or on a campus or the specific in department program or unit appointments were terminated, along with the failure to provide for hearings for faculty members on tenure or extended appointments, acknowledged the administration's power to take, virtually unchallenged, actions like those described in this report. With the need only for such consultation as the Chancellor or his designee considered appropriate (and that not necessarily with the faculty), and with a need to give notice of one semester ‘where only circumstances permit,’ the retrenchment of tenured faculty members determined unilarterally the by and administration, announced to the faculty on several weeks’ notice, was entirely consistent with the Agreement The committee also notes that in its investigation it found no evidence of a genuine state of financial exigency at SUNY: “No one interviewed the by investigating committee expressed opinion the that the actual survival of the State University of New York or any of its constituent institutions was threatened by the budget cut,” the report said. Need for reduction questioned According to the report, the total funds available to the State University of New York were cut 76 from $967 million in 1975 to $928 million in 1976 77 or about 4 percent. Such a reduction raises a question about the need to terminate the services of faculty members on continuing or extended appointments under any - - circumstances. “The investigating committee finds the retrenchment, as a general policy authorized and set in motion unilaterally by the University administration, to be contrary to accepted standards relating to faculty partiepation in government academic and violative of the provision on financial exigency in the 1940 Statement of Principles," the report said. The faculty members whose appointments were terminated received little help from the SUNY administration in finding positions suitable elsewhere.

Headley’s wife, friend and two sons were arrested in a September 1976 "Marijuana Plantation” raid, although no marijuana plants were ever found. The local newspaper reported in a front page story that “more than 2.000 marijuana plants” had been found with an estimated street value of “S450.000." Spectrum City Editor neighborhoods. A proposed zoning amendment which would regulate the opening entertainment of adult bookstores and live cabarets will be presented to the Common Council tomorrow morning, said Paul Barrick, Buffalo’s Director of Planning, in an exclusive interview conducted Friday. Patterned after a similar plan which was successful in Detroit, the Buffalo amendment would hopefully curtail feared neighborhood deterioration by forcing new adult entertainment businesses be reviewed by the Buffalo Common Council or the Planning Board. “We are hopeful that the plan will work very well,” commented Barrick. The Planning Director observed that the Detroit plan had been tested and upheld by the United States Supreme Court. The lawsuit, filed with the assistance of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML) and Playboy Magazine, charges that Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Drug Lnforcement Agency (DLA) agents entered into a conspiracy to violate the plaintiffs' civil rights. Under Montana’s harsh marijuana laws, cultivating even one plant can result in life imprisonment. Controversial clients The bizarre case began over a year ago when Lake Headley moved lo Red Lodge, Montana, with his family to take a vacation on a friend’s ranch and write about his adventures as a private investigator. Headley, 47, worked in California for lawyers defending political radicals and other controversial clients. Over the years, he has managed to antagonize a number of local, state and federal law enforcement officials. As an investigator for the Wounded Knee Defense Committee, he made a citizen’s arrest of two FBI agents in 1973, and supplied much of the evidence which freed the principal defendants because of “improprieties” on the part of the government. He was later retained by the parents of two members of the Symbionese Liberation Army who were killed in a shootout with police officers in Los Angeles in The Detroit plan One of the innovators of the Detroit plan, Head Planner of Zoning Donald Brownell, discussed on the phone the facts regarding the Supreme Court’s March 1976 decision. “Two owners of adult movie theaters protested the act because they alleged it violated their first amendment rights of freedom of speech,” stipulated Brownell. The Supreme Court upheld the Detroit plan as not being an infringement of the theater owners’ constitutional rights. “The Detroit Plan has been a model for many cities throughout the nation because it legally regulates the location of adult entertainment in cities,” said Brownell. The Detroit amendment has put a number of prospective “adult entertainments" out of business and has prevented relocation of certain businesses because City Hall’s approval would be necessary. The plan can be applied in two different ways: it can disperse the uses of adult entertainment throughout an area or concentrate the uses in a “combat zone” one area of a city. 1974. Headley’s move to Montana did not go unnoticed by local law enforcement officials. According to the laWsuit, a pattern of “intimidation and harassment” began Headley’s telegrams were intercepted, and evidence was planted on his property, which was often trespassed. — Principal attorney on the suit, William E. Rittenberg, commented, “This is one of the most outrageous cases I have seen in my practice of law A real horror story.

All undergraduates are urged to run Sex acts and cabarets Gennuso proposed that adult book stores, motion picture theaters and “exotic cabarets of the go-go variety” would need to have a petition approved by the Common Council of the Planning Board if they were to be opened within 500 feet of a similar business establishment The place of entertainment which hopes to open its doors to the public must obtain the signatures of 51 percent of the similar business establishments prior to sending the petition to City Hall for perusal and possible approval. Gennuso went on to consider the definition of what might be regarded as adult entertainment. He spoke of emphasis on matters of specific sexual acts or anatomical areas as being the basis for judging what was or was not adult entertainment. Though the definition seemed vague and centered on moral values at tunes, Gennuso replied that he believed the amendment was not concerned with moral value judgements but with upgrading different sections of the Buffalo community. Understanding that the Common Council could and proceed to approve certain i n tervene establishments of adult entertainment if the establishment was not encouraging the growth of a skid-row area, Gennuso predicted that the proposed amendment would benefit the city of Buffalo by curtailing areas plagued by urban blight.

Over the past few years the strength of CAC has dwindled to last semester’s low of 1500. If this trend continues, CAC faces a reduction in the services it can offer to the Buffalo community. At a time such as now when “social awareness” is dying, the reduction of social services in this community could have very unfortunate results. The Community Action Corps is seeking volunteers to fill positions in all of the eight areas within the organization. These areas include Health Care, Drug and Youth, Social Action, Legal and Welfare, Child Care, Education, Recreation, and Older Adults. By having such a diversified selection, CAC feels that anyone can be placed to work in any situation he desires. In addition to projects generated by CAC, resource contacts exist which place the volunteer with already established programs such as — - - - - March of Dimes, American Red Cross, etc Dedication a requirement Community Action Corps, the largest student run volunteer organization in the country, does not face the same problems that other student organizations must deal with every year. When a change in leadership occurs, it is the responsibility of the departing coordinators to fill their positions. All decisions are made by a Central Committee the heart throb of CAC. Only coordinators, who run the programs, must attend Central Committee meetings. Any interested person with something to say is always welcome to become part of the leadership. CAC needs people in every capacity, from coordinators to van drivers. The only requirements are dedication and a sincere desire to become part of solutions, not problems. Anyone interested in more information, please feel welcome to stop at the information tables in the Center Lounge of Squire Hall on either Monday or Tuesday the 19th and 20th from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., or call 831-5552 and stop in Roon) 345 Squire Hall, anyday from 9-5 p.m. - Opening the doors of Drop-In Centers Behind Amherst A new Drop-In Center located on the Amherst Campus (Room 104 Norton) and the Main Street Drop-In Center (67S Harriman Library) will open their office to students today. Staffed by volunteers consisting of students, professionals and faculty of this University, the Drop-In Centers are a place for anyone in (he University to “drop in and talk” about anything, ranging from problems with a roommmate, class schedules, sexual problems, or difficulty in finding a certain building. For anyone who needs to talk, it is “almost like an ‘in-person’ hotline," said Drop-In Manager Lorrie Po/.arik. No forms Part of the University Counseling Services, the Drop-In Centers offer “crises services.” This is an immediate source of help with no commitments, no forms, and no waiting. Gene Nelson and Lorrie Pozarik, responsible for the management of the Centers, stated the philosophy of the staff: “We believe that if we can learn to be aware of curselves, we can help other people learn to be aware of themselves.” The Drop-In Centers try and help people with their problems and referrals are made, if necessary. Usually, the volunteers try to help the person become “aware of alternatives and look at the problem with a clear head,” said Pozarik. Initiated by Dorothy Adema, the program is in its fifth year of service to the University Community. Last year, the center at Main Street helped over one thousand people. This year, two centers are willing and able to accommodate more. Need at Amherst The staff of thirty volunteers alternates working in two-hour shifts. There is continuous training for the volunteers and staff meetings once a week at which time they discuss any problems that within a ten minute class change. This necessitates, among other things, a shuttle bus in constant service around the perimeter of the academic spine. Thus, a great deal of movement between buildings will be made by bus and will not require walking through any central area or “cross-roads.” This again differs radically from the Main Street Campus. In addition, a large number of the buildings will be connected by enclosed bridges spanning the spine area on the second and third levels. It will not be necessary to descend to the ground level to walk from some areas of the campus to others. Nor will a student tend to spend leisure time between classes for example in a centralized area such as Squire Hall. Each of the seven major faculties will have its own activity space. The residential buildings will also have extensive activity, dining and study areas, and will, as such, be largely self-contained. arise When asked about the necessity of a permanent center at Amherst, Pozarik said, “It looks like there’s nobody there, but there are a lot of people who could use a drop-in center.” There was a center at Amherst last year, “inappropriately located in a second floor Richmond lounge.” A very informal servicd, the Drop-In Centers don’t solve people’s -JulieMellen problems for them, but are willing to listen. Communication cut Although the plan does provide the actual space for large gatherings of people, it also lowers the probability of those gatherings occurring by chance, and furthermore limits the extent to CLASS TIME 4:30 5:30 pm (Tues. & Thun.)

The Associate Chairman of this University’s English Department, Fred See, has observed the lay-out of the Campus and feels the spine was “deliberately decentralized instead of being hub designed. “The late sixties was a time of perfidious campus unrest,” See observed, “and the new campus was designed to minimize the chances of riots. “One would think that men responsible for a University of this magnitude would understand that history changes. It’s a folly to believe that students would remain at the same level of violence, that the social order wouldn’t change.” The Dean of the Colleges, Irving Spitzburg, noted that the decentralization concept clashes with the environment it was both created out of, and applied to. He considers the University, as well as state and student governments, to be organized along centralized, bureacratic lines. “The theory behind the Campus,” he felt, “is inconsistent with the tendency of the University to centralize.” Amherst Councilman Gerry Brownrout, in an interview last CLUB TAE KWON —Continued . ALL ARE WELCOME! from page 1 — • summer, asked if he thought the campus was designed to control students. “That’s the truth, Brownrout said. “Believe me. That’s how the campus was set up.” He recalled talk among University officials of encircling the campus with iron gates. This was later confirmed by high placed sources here. The high costs involved were the main reason the gate plan was dropped, the sources said. Brownrout said the residents of the Town of Amherst genuinely feared the cmong of 25,000 students. The other heavily weighed site for the campus was downtown Buffalo. After considerable study and controversy, Amherst was chosen over downtown. Union unitity The Campus Plan, as a blueprint, bears little resemblance to the Amherst Campus as it exists today. The plan was revised and cutback considerably as the State began to realize it did not have the financial resources to carry it out. What is now called the Amherst Campus only hints at the hugeness of the original plan. Whatever havoc a completed de-centralized Amherst Campus would have played with student life is equalled by the current split between the Main Street Campus and the partially finished Amherst facility. Three of the six buildings slated to house student activities have not been built and do not appear anywhere on the priority list for the restart of construction. With the move of five student organizations to Talbert Hall last summer, the future of the student groups left behind in Main Street’s Squire Hall is very much in doubt. Space at Amherst for the remaining groups exists soley in blueprints for the three unbuilt structures. Hewlett-Packard Available af LACO BOOKSTORES 3610.

Belts Dimmick < MEET *GUS* IN 355 SQUIRE HALL FOR ONLY $.08 LESS THAN ANY — — HE COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE COPIER ON CAMPUS?! OTHER The Buffalo field hockey team will open their season today with a new coach, a new philosophy and some impressive new players. Women s Athletic Director Betty Dimmick took over the coaching duties for the field hockey team this year after the squad had seen three different coaches in the past three years. Dimmick had previously been the women's tennis coach. Among the new players are three freshmen and a transfer, all of whom have outstanding credentials. Freshman Joyce Kotin was the Most Valuable Player on her high school team and was chosen for the All-Star Team of a field hockey camp site attended. xVickic Phillips, another freshman, was an All-Star in Westchester County, while freshman Lorinda Burgers played in the sectional tournament for her high school. Bari Slatas. a transfer, was the Most Valuable Player at Suffolk Community College. Veterans Along with the rookies, UB also has some strong returning players, including goalie Jean Neal, halfback Lynne Azzaro and Ruse Bowden, forward Gabi Gray, and Margaret Cardina, who will see action as a fullback or a halfback. This year. Dimmick will test a new coaching strategy. Instead of keeping the defense in the backfield, she will use the whole team on aitack. Defensive players will be encouraged to move all over the field and even to score goals. “I I will be much mure of a creative game now,” explained Dimmick. “The defense used to just play defense. Now, there'll be a lot of playing together, a lot of moving together.” Dimmick is very optimistic about the team, especially the new players. "There's so much interest on this team,” she said. It’s a very strong team." The Bulls have a good defense, may have problems on forward line, partly due to a lack of players for those positions. Buffalo travels to the University of Rochester today to open their season. They were beaten by the strong Rochester squad last year, and so are out to even the score, according to the coach. The Bulls will play theii first home match on Thursday against Houghton. "Om main weakness is the lack of time we’ve had to spend together,'' said Dimmick.

Schwall Spectrum Staff Writer The UB rugby club has started practicing for its second season of play with an eight game schedule this fall. The team wfll play in the Eastern Rugby Union, with matches against other schools and local clubs. Important games include the SUNY tournament at Cortland and a tough Syracuse squad in Syracuse. Rugby is a tough game, but there are no size requirements. “It’s a physical game and endurance is the key factor,” said Pbul Kruger, the club president. Two forty minute halves with a “running clock” are played. There are no timeouts, and halftime is a five minute rest. ABCs There arc fifteen players on each side. Usually, there is an “A” points. Scores of twenty points squad to play the whole game are commoivfor a game total. The ball is given up when with subsequent “B” and “C” games to follow, depending on the intercepted or fumbled, and when size of the clubs. Of the fifteen a player is tackled.

Buffalo the football program became a reality last May, the task of rebuilding the Bulls fell upon the shoulders of coach Bill Dando. To assist him, Dando has chosen an assortment men, each of whom of young have fine football backgrounds. Directing the offense will be Denny Mason, who proved capable of handling the backfield when he directed the Bulls from 1966-68 as the one quarterback and captain. Mason, who holds four individual UB passing records, has taught at Cleveland Hill High number School and coached freshmen football since graduating. It is often said that the game of football is decided on the line, mainly because linemen say so. offensive line for the Bulls will be Charlie Donner. Donner was a standout as the Buffalo captain and center from 1967-70. For the past six years he taught at Clarence High has School while assisting the football program there. Coordinating the Slop ’em and beat ’em The wide receiver coach is Paul Dusenberry, who joined the staff as a personal favor to Dando.

Administration of the fee will begin this semester and is expected to hit hardest at poorer SUNY students. The Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) does not cover the new charge or any other fee. “We did express opposition to the fee,” said Vice Chancellor for Educational Services James Smoot. “Our main concern was that this additional fee is not covered by available financial aid (including TAP).” Health services on SUNY campuses, rather than improving, have suffered a 10 percent cut in staff positions the past two years. The new fee is not expected to reverse the trend. According to Smoot, the Legislature’s action is a major departure from SUNY Board of Trustees policy. “Several years ago the Trustees, in raising tuition, took a stand against extra fees,” Smoot observed. “They’ve given ground on the matter of student activity fees, but 1 think they are still basically committed to a tuition, rather than a fee-oriented structure.” In levying the fee, the Legislative Finance Committee apparently compared SUNY to public universities in other states. It found that “most other states utilize a combination of mandatory basic health fees and fees for specialized services.” Smoot felt these findings were misleading, however. “In examining the subject of health fees,” he said, “the fiscal committees looked strictly at what other states charge as a health fee, they did not look at tuition. So while many states might have a health fee, very few statfes have a tuition as high as SUNY.” Smoot feels the Eastern states in general are pricing their public education higher than warranted. The Student Association of the State University (SASU) has lobbied against the fee this year. — at Friday, Buffalo 16 September 1977 TAP head comes underfire by Jay Rosen Managing Editor State Senator William T. Smith (R.. Big Flats) has called for the resignation of Fileen Dickinson, president of the Higher Education Services Corporation (HESC), which administers the state’s trouble plagued Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) Smith, in a recent letter to Governor Hugh Carey, demanded Dickinson’s resignation based on what he termed "HESC’s dismal performance, the remaining backlog of 1976-77 TAP applications and reports of new trouble with TAP and non-TAP awards.” Smith warned of a “two-year backlog and a full-fledged crisis in the entire higher education awards program.” HESC was instituted in 1976 in order to provide “one-stop shopping” for all Federal and State loan and scholarship programs. Since HESC’s inception, the TAP program has become a “nightmare for all concerned,” according to a Senate task force committee report. The report details a host of problems caused by HESC’s inadequate handling of the $447 million TAP program. As the fall semester of 1976 arrived, HESC had only processed 25 percent of TAP applications. The year before, prior to HESC’s inception, 80 percent had been completed by September. Never ending problems According to the committee’s report, students by the delays were forced into taking additional loans, skipping meals and changing residences, applying for welfare and food stamps, taking part-time jobs at the expense of their studies affected and in some cases, dropping out of school. Private schools had no choice but to obtain high fill financial gaps caused by the lack of TAP monies. The report blames the "seemingly never-ending problems” on "poor management and interest loans to organizational difficulties ” Smaller private schools were forced to threaten students who were unable to pay their tuition with "Student financial aid officers were expulsion among the most frustrated," the report states, “as spent hours trying to assist students against odds that usually proved insurmountable.” The management of HESC cited various reasons delays. for the Incorrect and incomplete applications, the need for supplementary forms for financially independent students; difficulties in processing address, college and scholarship changes, inexperienced staff; and inadequate quality control were all blamed for the TAP nightmare, which is not over for hundreds of students who still have not received their awards despite filing applications over a year and a half ago. they Kept in the dark The report charges that “HESC policymakers made several grave errors in judgment and organizational difficulties were common A “grave misconception” of the “magnitude of the problem” resulted in students and universities being "kept in the dark about TAP applications and payments," the report said In response to mounting complaints about the TAP program, the State legislature held state wide hearings during 1976. The hearings brought to light the “chaotic state of affairs at HESC.” In an unprecedented move, funding for the last eight months of the 1977-78 academic year was cut off. Only after HESC submitted a "Management Improvement Plan” were the funds restored in the state's supplemental budget. Although HESC management feels the problems ot 1976 will he avoided through implenetation of the improvement plan, early indications do not support this hope. As of August 22, HO percent of City University of New York (CUNY) applicants had received their awards, but only 24 percent of all other applicants theirs CUNY’s pre-processing of had received applications accounts lor the disparity in figures. Thousands of students at non-CUNY schools, such as SUNY at Buffalo, are still in the dark about this year’s TAP money. HESC’s goal is to have 80 percent of the applications completed by September, yet as the Senate report brings out, before the birth of the corporation. 80 percent success by August was the " rule �Fantasy fulfillment Roddenberry’s visit here is a dream come truefor many by Elaine Levinstein Spectrum Staff Writer Did you ever wonder what it’s like to meet someone you’ve worshipped, loved and cherished for longer than you care to remember?

Friday, 16 September 1977 to - New series, movie There will be a new Star Trek television series — already in its preproduction stage. The new series will reflect the key social crusades of the I970’s such as the feminist movement power movements among minority groups, rapid technological advancements that have affected all phases of our lives and other basic changes that have arisen from these movements. He hopes that this time the starship crew will complete its five year mission. The new series will probe further into the evolution of the Romulan and Klingon empires, and most of the crew will be returning, with the exception of who Spock, might make occasional return visits. A new young Vulcan science officer named Xon (pronounced Zon) will replace Spock, and there will be an alien woman officer on the whom bridge Roddenberry promises will ania/.c you. The new show will probe into new alien cultures and there will be major alterations of the ship itself, since according to the creator, the nature of science itself has changed. There will also be a Star Trek movie coming out, although production is being slowed down due to several difficulties in coordination. Roddenberry promises that Star Trek 2 will be belter, and continue to show us how little we know about life and our purpose here, and our need to find out as much as we can. He claims he derives the most happiness by opening up people’s hearts and minds through Star Trek to the wonderful world of science fiction, and of utmost importance, to thinking about who we are, what we’re here for. and what direction we’re going in.

They perturbed about Roddenberry’s original plan to have a woman on the bridge in a command position. The character of Mr. Spock, with his satanic appearance, was also a source of agitation to them.

The process began with the dequarterjng of 36 overcrowded triples in the Elljcott Complex, most of which were handled by Wednesday.. The remaining overcrowded rooms, amounting to approximately 125 in Goodyear Hall and Governor’s Residence Halts, are also undergoing the detripling process, and they too should be completed by Friday, said Boyce. One area desk secretary said, “We are in the making progress definitely notification process." Another secretary, Jeanne Nartem, said that almost all the extra people have been notified to move, and that “just a small percentage are yet to be told.” Nartens added that most of the people who have been reassigned were moved into triples and quads, “since very few doubles exist,” she said. Notification problems He originally claimed the extra people people.” The overcrowding was instituted due to an increased demand for dormitory accommodations, and, according to Boyce, the number of extra students has exceeded the number of students who have yet to show up to claim their spaces in the dorms. He claimed he expected the theoretical number of “no shows” to accommodate extra students, and said the Housing Office was calling those students who did not show up by the first day of classes in order to confirm their spaces. /. le secti ions o: spaces arc in the dorms.:He said this will necessitate the consolidation of available female space, and will mean more students will have to move to different rooms, causing further inconvenience. In other words, some males will be asked to occupy rooms that would normally be filled by females. A problem concerning these males’ accessibility to bathrooms will have to be handled. One student living in an overcrowded triple said, “This is an incredible inconvenience. I just got to know a few Sex causes problems However, even though the number of “no shows” has surpassed the number of temporary in extra students accommodations, the Housing Office has encountered problems in placing students in newly available rooms because of their sex.

However, the daily functions of the office will be severely cut, according to Sub Board Treasurer Dennis Black. Said Black, “The $850 purportedly given to GLS by Sub Board on Monday for off-campus housing, is, in fact, designated for innovative programing for Squire Union activities.” This money is' under the supervision of Director of Union Activities Joyce Levin, who is currently out of town. GLS has been asked by Black to be responsible for the upkeep of the housing bulletin boards, along with handing out housing sheets, and answering the phone calls concerning off-campus housing. Director of Group Legal Services David Brownstein said, “We’ve been asked to do it and we will, but it is one of a series of ridiculous cutbacks and examples of screwed-up priorities.” Sub Board and the Board of Directors did not look into it.” She further complained, “Sub Board’s closings was at the peak of the need for an OffCampus Housing office.” Black contends “there is a demand for an office at specific points during the year, but the Off-Campus Housing Office wasn’t serving its purpose anyway.” He felt “there was total chaos this summer, and Heidi Lewis appointed someone who knew nothing about anything to run the office this summer.” Lewis responded, “If he has any complaints then why doesn’t he talk to me about them? He stiB hasn’t faced the fact that Sub Board has eliminated a very valuable service.” Dangerous directions?

October 14 will be the last date to drop a course. Past that date, students will have to accept a failing grade. Last year the date was November 30. In recent years students were able to resign from courses and receive a grade of “R” (officially withdrew) up until the last two weeks of the semester. “A general feeling of concern about academic standards was the major reason behind the change, according to Dean of Undergraduate Education Walter Kunz. The decision was handed down as part of a Faculty Senate resolution titled, “Definition of a Student in Good Standing and Associated Regulations.” The resolution was passed last May 3 and was aimed at setting new guidelines for academic retention. Reputation enhanced Kunz said that the decision corresponds with a “nationwide feeling” about academic standards and was a response to the “permissive policies” instituted in the late 1960’s. He felt that students would benefit from the action through an enhanced reputation for the University’s, academic standards on the part of graduate and professional schools. Other schedule changes have been announced by the Office of Admissions and Records. The dates for initial registration without Dean’s approval, and the last day to add classes and to drop them without an “R” or without financial liability have been changed. The new date for initial registration is Friday, September 23, changed from September 16; for adding and dropping, Friday, September 30, changed from September 23. The Jewish holidays which have been added to the academic calendar this year resulted in the latter changes. According to Assistant Director for Student Records and Registration, James Schwender, night school students and day students whose classes meet only once a week would not have had sufficient opportunity to make decisions under the old calendar. Although most day school students would have still had plenty of time, the dates were moved back for everyone in order to keep things less confused. The new schedules have been posted around campus. The Admissions and Records offices (Hayes C) will remain open during the holidays.

And it is. , Revolution were being " ; " — ' Arrows and signs Up until this summer, the Center was run under the nebulous titles of Family Planning Clinic and Human Sexuality Center. The two organizations shared an office and little else. “There wasn’t a dividing line,” said Director Laura Rubin, “but you felt like there was. A sort of nationalism,” existed among the separate staffs which according to Fish created a divisive atmosphere. Last year’s physical the office The woman who desires a pregnancy test must also see a counselor who, at the first “intake” session, will take down vital information about the woman, calculate the number of weeks she may be pregnant, note her emotional state and answer any questions she has. A pregnancy test will be administered at Michael Hall for a charge j)f about five dollars. If quicker results are desired, a blood test can be done at a local hospital. Such tests are more expensive, but can give results in few as eight days after jtercourse. Results of the pregnancy test come to the office Squire Hall. They are not given over the telephone. An appointment to discuss the results made it the intake session. * ' Up to die woman 1 At the second session, if the results are negative, the woman may be advised to use some form of birth control .or change her present one. If results are positive, the counselor will go carefully over the various options available. At no point will the counselor ever make a decision for the woman. Alternatives will be laid out, questions will be answered, but this final decision is strictly up to the woman. “We never do anything to persuade the person in any way,” Rubin said, “although it is a very common thing to have people say, ‘I don’t know what to do’.” “As long as they have enough knowledge about the information it’s their choice,” observed Foley. Fish concurred, adding, “We give them tools to work with.” All three stressed the non-participatory function of the — counseling staff, observing that any professional counseling service could function no other way. The emotional demands of the job are large enough without involving oneself in what are often gut-wrenching decisions. If a decision is made in favor of abortion, at least three doctors abortion procedure is discussed in detail so that the woman will know what to expect. Cotas will also be discussed. Currently in the planning stage are post-abortion counseling groups, designed to ease the difficult psychological effects of the operation. If the woman decides to keep the child, doctor and clinic referrals will be made, and financial data made available. If adoption is desired, the center will refer women reputable to adoption agencies. Not everyone feels the Center has a place on campus. One woman went through an entire counseling session just to see if the Center offered abortions as an option.

Page five �Student writing anthology seeking manuscripts Thr undersigned, being several officers of The Spectrum and faculty members of the English Department, propose to publish an annual Anthology oj Student Writing at SUNY/Buffalo. The following statement is a description of the project and a solicitation of manuscripts. We want student writing of any kind, of all kinds. The quality of the writing not its subject or form or original purpose is what interests us. We are asking to look at term papers, essays, independent writing by ambitious students, accounts of personal experience, and a wide variety of journalistic writing. Almost anything perhaps even a really good letter home. Students who submit writing for inclusion in the SUNYAB Anthology must be prepared to undergo and participate in a strenuous process of editing and revision. Indeed, this is the heart of the mallei. Our purpose is to publish writing in order to encourage the good, the better, and the writing on this campus best writing by Buffalo students, graduate and undergraduate. To achieve this end. revision and editing are called for. This editing process is additionally necessary since we see superior writing as non-professional, of broad interest and appropriate aspiration, and addressed to a general lay audience. So, for example, we would welcome work by a student in chemistry or linguistics or engineering or dentistry or an> of the special hut only if written or revised for departments comprehension by a non-technical readership. The Student Writing Group does not now, at the outset of the Anthology project, request submission of verse and advanced or experimental fiction: we don’t have the right kind of editors. But we would hope, in the near future, to recruit faculty editors for poetry and fiction, so that all good student writing will have a place in a fully representative anthology. Initially, we expect to publish the Anthology as inexpensively as possible. This may mean, for the first issue, a volume of reproduced typescript. As soon as may be feasible, we look forward to putting out a regular hard-cover type-set book. That would be after the project proves itself in practice, with a quality product. Once a proper editorial system is established, a new number of the Anthology can be published whenever sufficient copy is ready for the printer. In brief, that is our proposal. - - - 0 t* * * * Our purpose is to honor writing here at Buffalo want to do Mostly, we want to do more for writers as we can to encourage them and facilitate their efforts. (More of this on a later occasion.) Foremost is the chance of seeing one’s work in print ami having it read by strangers. Immediately following that, however, is the wonderful utility of editing as a means of teaching and learning to write. The Anthology will encourage writers by publishing writing, hut the rigorous process of preparing material for such publication will also ’‘teach" writing to the editor and the edited writer both. Once the Anthology has been established, what else can be done for student writers at Buffalo? Some of us are pursuing this question within the English Department, while others are doing so among workers at The Spectrum We may hold some public meetings in the future, we will certainly make reports on the progress of our efforts, and, of course, we are open to as much suggestions. A few words on the organization of the Student Writing Group: the undersigned organizers are mostly ad hoc: there are not many of us, but we don't want a more elaborate structure than we need. What we Jo in addition to a nice flow of need for the Anthology good manuscripts and writers willing to re-write are a bank of initial screening editors, a number of advanced and a editors, few undergraduate senior graduate/faculty editors to staff three levels of the overall editing process. We also need typists and one or more production helpers. And some money, of course. We are applying, in the first instance, to Sub-Board for starter funds to cover production of the first volume, and to pay typists. (We expect to apply soon for other grants elsewhere.) Eventually, we would like to be in a position to give some money to the hardest-working - - editors. And to pay all waters a word-rate. It could be big. The best writing on campus, very well-edited, regularly produced in print. We hope it will encourage writers here at Buffalo.

For most bachelor of science (B.S.) degrees, the major field of study will appear on the diploma. Majors generally do not appear on the diploma at most American universities unless required for licensing purposes (e.g., Nursing, pharmacy, teaching, etc.). June 1974 was the last time this University printed all majors on diplomas. the decision to eliminate printing of most majors on diplomas was made by then Division of Undergraduate Education Dean Ebert and President Ketter’s cabinet. “It was a decision based on budget reductions,” said Director of Admissions and Records (A&R) Richard Dremuk. “The cost was too great and it required too much staff time. It would be nice but not necessary.” Many students are “shocked, to say the least,” said Mark Sposato, a student who was shocked, to say the least, to discover his diploma did not state his major. He claimed many students are taking their diploma to the printer to have their major added, although no one is sure if this is legal. The cost of printing a diploma is S.65. There is an extra charge for printing of Latin Honors. This addition involves sending the diploma to the printer and re-alphabati/.ing the diplomas for each individual Latin honors. The State Education Department of New York then mandated that the diploma bear the exact title of the degree, specifying that majors requiring licensing would be printed. This will not be the case for most B.A. degrees. If a student receives a double major in the Arts, the dip'oma will not specify the major. Double majors will be specified on students' transcripts. If a student receives a double degree, over 128 credit hours, he will receive a B.A. and a B.S diploma, neither of which will specify the course of study (unless they reauire licensing). "You look for some index when you have to save money,” said Dremuk, “and this was considered a fringe.” Senior Credentials Assistant Carol Meldon dubbed it a time consuming process. “Each major had to be separately alphabati/.ed. It took three or four times longer." One secretary said the purpose of a diploma was just self satisfaction, because transcripts were used when applying for jobs. She then confessed, “For the students who aren't satisfied when receiving their diploma, diplomas aren’t serving their purpose.” One student, milled by the decision stated, “After all that money and effort, I want to see what I got.” Total enrollment in the Nation’s schools and colleges will drop slightly this school year, while the total cost of education will increase by about $12 last year, billion over Marie D. Eldridge, Administrator of the National Center for Education Statistics, predicts. The annual “Back-to-School” forecast, prepared by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), indicates that 60.3 million students are expected when schools open this fall. This is a decrease of about one-half of one percent from the fall 1976 enrollment of 60.6 million. Total expenditures at all levels are expected to reach $144 billion for the 1977-78 school year, as compared with about $132 billion in 1976-77. Education occupations More than 3.1 million persons will be employed classroom teachers this year, while another 300,000 will work as superintendents, principals, supervisors, and other instructional staff, both about the same as last year, Therefore, education in 1977-78 will be the major occupation of 63.7 million Americans. Mrs. Eldridge pointed out that, given a national population of 217 million, about three out of every ten persons will be actively involved in the education process. as The biggest decline in enrollment will occur this fall at the elementary level. The number of students enrolled in kindergarten through grade eight is expected to drop about one and one-half percent to 33.3 million from last fall’s enrollment of 33.8 million. This reflects the continuing decrease in the number of children 5 to J3 years of age, a phenomenon which has been characteristic of the 1'170’s. again High sch ool enrollment, which peaked last year 15.8 million, is just beginning to reflect the decrease in the school-age population. The number of high school students probably will decline less than one percent to about 1 5.7 million this fall. at Increased college students An increase of about two and one-half percent BEGINNING FILMMAKING CMS 101 No CMS Reg 103 CMS 107 Reg No CMS 301 No Reg 098175 303 No FILM WORKSHOP I ?li Wende 3lU FILM CMi CMS Reg No ANALYST Paul No 093C CMS 501B Reg No. 0912 Rep CMS 512F Reg.

This represents a very small decrease from the number of teachers employed a year ago. The instructional staff at the college level is expected to number about 700,000, up nearly threepercent from the 680,000 employed in the tall of 1976. Other highlights of the coming school year include A record number of students, over 3,150,000 will graduate from high school in 1978. The graduating classes ot 1976 and 1977 were both slightly more than 3.1 million. The number of earned degrees to be conferred during 1977-78 is estimated as follows: bachelor’s degrees, 969,000, first-professional degrees, 64.000; master’s degrees, 356,000; and doctorates, 35,000. More bachelor’s and higher degrees will be awarded in 1977-78 than in any previous year. Out of the estimated expenditures of 5144 billion for education in 1977-78, elementary and secondary schools are expected to spend $91 billion, up from $84 billion last year. Colleges and universities will spend an estimated $53 billion, as compared with $48 billion in 1976-77. Total expenditures of public schools and colleges will be about $117 billion. Privately controlled institutions will spend approximately $27 billion. Total expenditures for education from all sources amounted to nearly eight percent of the gross national product last year.

Ragsdale The Guardsman, a 1924 play by the Hungarian playwright Ferenc Molnar, is not exactly one of the major dramatic works of this century In fact, it is a piece of fluff, an enjoyable but essentially trivial play. There seem to me to be two basic justifications for Robin Phillips having chosen it tor presentation at the Stratford (Ontario) Shakespeare Festival: (1) it provides a vehicle for his two major stars. Maggie Smith and Brian Bedford: and (2) it is highly metadramatic is (albeit superficially so). Metadrama drama about theater itself one of Phillips' continuing interests. All in all, this production must be considered a success. Granted the shallow waters in which the actors are wading, they obviously have a very good time splashing around, and so does the audience watching them. Their classiness, and Phillips' lightness of touch in directing them, give this play more weight than it has in the text, enough to sustain a pleasant evening. The absense of real characters, real comedy. — and real wit Is smoothed over with plenty of style Bickering love The plot is simple. The Actor (Brian Bedford) suspects that his wife of six months, The Actress (Maggie Smith) no longer loves him. He resolves to test her virtue and at the same time prove his own acting skill by playing the part of her current romantic fantasy, a Guardsman, and making love to her Much to his chagrin, his Guardsman succeeds in winning her affection. But when he reveals his scheme to her, she claims to have known him from the start, and to have only been playing along. We never know for sure if this is true, but their love is seemingly renewed, and the play ends as it began, with bickering between the Actor and the Actress' maid Mama (Mary Savidge) The basic triviality of the play lies in the fact that it raises problems with which it never deals. At the start, the ambiguous relationship between real feeling and theatrical behavior is brought up, when the Actor complains that his wife kisses him more passionately onstage than at home (complicated by the fact that their "home" is actually of course, a stage set). Real human problems concerning their marriage are postulated, and, through, the fictional Guardsman, we expect the play to address these problems, and relate them to the theme of theatrical performance. Vet this "character" never comes to life There is no reason provided for us to believe the Actress would fall in love with him, except for her claim to have done so Her falling in love therefore, becomes nothing more than a requirement of the plot, and when it is dismissed at the end, the main issues have not even been touched. Under the guise of appearing to develop its emotional substance, the play completely diffuses it Nothing is serious Furthermore, we are not given any good reason why the trick which the Actor has played should cause the Actress to renew her love for him. And if she does not do so (which is an escape route the play leaves open by suggesting the ambiguity of her real feelings, and by returning at the end to exactly the same stage action we saw at the ontmued iJm! r ,fc I <n>/ ' v ■ on page 12 s \ \ - �' Guardsman .. —continued from page 11- beginning), if, in fact, it is all just a performance, then the play is not saying anything about its characters' experience. The bottom line of this play is: nothing is serious, all behavior is ephemeral performance. This can be a significant idea, but only when its implications are made clear, not when they are avoided. The difference between this play and, say, Shakespeare's metadrama is that there is no believable dramatic world here. A Midsummer Night's Dream exists both in Athens and in the theater. The Guardsman exists only in the theater. If one removed the metadramatic qualities of Shakespeare's plays, it would still be quite possible to believe in their human content, their straight drama. There is not much genuine human content in Molnar's play. It is metadrama without drama. The play might have been better if Molnar were genuinely witty, if he had balanced the rather wishy washy melancholy that coats the play with a certain amount of the sharp detachment one finds in, say, Noel Coward. Unfortunately, there is no real wit in this play. It provides the semblance of wit, the semblance of romance, and the semblance of metadrama. We enjoy all of these things enough that we can also enjoy their semblances; they pass the time in a pleasantly light way. And if no more than that, it is perhaps stuffy to require anything else. The cast is as good as the play allows its actors to be. They suggest by the very manner of their acting the ambiguous relationship between sincere emotion and dramatic performance. Brian Bedford is urbanely they do self-parodying as the Actor; Eric Donkin ironically detached as the Critic; and Mary Savidge appropriately flustered as Mama (less a character than a sustained pose, and a body to fill out the stage). The rest of the small cast is also quite adequate The sets are excellent. An especially effective coo p: sc device is Phillips' (or designer Daphne Dare's) idea to have the curtain cut across the living-room set of Acts I and III. Before the play starts, we see a couple of chairs, a side table, a lamp, and a footstool in front of the curtain, all of which looks very much like a stage set. Then the curtain is drawn, to reveal these items as part of a highly naturalistic living-room. This little device does as much to embody the relationship between the play's world and the actual theater as anything in the text itself. Maggie Smith showcase The chief rfeason to see The Guardsman, however, is to see Maggie Smith. This play is not really the perfect vehicle for her more profound acting talents, because it is so superficial that it presents no real challenge. But it is an excellent showcase for her by-now patented style of acting, what might be described as aristocratic aesthetic slapstick She characteristically suggests a comic detachment from the other characters in the play and even from the character she herself is playing, by means of her double-takes of aesthetic shock, her ironic disdain for any evidence of crudity or stupidity. She seems to withdraw from anything so lacking in wit as, say, a flat declaration of feeling, or an outburst of anger. Life for such a person must be ordered like a work of art, according to aesthetic criteria of style and intelligence. Her detachment is not the least bit snide. Rather, it suggests the disruption caused by the ordinary absurdity of life to a perspective which is absolutely secure in its tasteful criteria of value. Thus, in a sense, she is laughing at her own persona and its disorientation from reality, while at the same time implicitly asserting the superiority of her refined standards to the crudity of the real world. And she invites the audience to share her dead-pan quizzical look at life's absurdity. Maggie Smith is to high ironic comedy what Buster Keaton was to silent film slapstick. Sometimes her almost reflex double-takes creep in where they do not belong (as in the Titania scenes with Bottom in Dream, or in her portrayal of Masha in last year's Three Sisters) and mar her performance. And she cannot play all parts equally well (eg . she could not be as trampy as last summer's Antony and Cleopatra required). No actor or actress, after all, can do everything. But for parts like Amanda in Private Lives or the Actress in The Guardsman or Millamant in The Way of the best actress in the world.

In layman's terms, Richie is the man responsible for bringing jazz, folk, soul, rock, and other music to the UB students. Ever wonder where your $67 goes? It goes into the budget of one of the most actively-watched committees on this campus. When concerts cost $4 and not the usual $7 or $8, UUAB is usually involved.

UUAB is the entertainment committee of the student corporation Sub Board I Inc., which is partially funded by the $67 mandatory student activity fee. Sound Tech provides sound systems for musical events. For a typical coffeehouse, the necessary equipment would include two JBL colinear columns, two to six microphones and a Shure six channel Prodigal Sun mixing board combination amplifier. This year Sound Tech can handle large "gigs" at Shea's Buffalo using up to twenty-two speakers and twenty or more microphones. These acts would be mixed on a 16 to 24 channel mixing board. Bob Hartecker, who has five years experience in the western New York music business, is in charge of the equipment department of Sound Tech. Hartecker said that 90 percent of Sound Tech's equipment is functional, meaning that all specifications are up to new standards. The rest of the equipment will be ready for the first free outdoor folk festival at Buffalo State, September 18.

Prodigal Sun �Photos by Rick Vazquez Should stop singing Benson's guitar work so-o-o slick The evening certainly was stylish. But I think of jazz, I recall Kerouac's when Neal Cassady, down under in a sweaty Frisco bar, screamin' "Blow, man, blow!" Pierre Cardin was nowhere in sight. But lately, it seems the stimulating and rewarding renaissance of jazz has brought expected (but still annoying) side effects. As disco sometimes grows out of soul, so it now goes with jazz. Mind you, Anthony Braxton is probably light years (literally and figuratively) away from this, but the guitarist once thought to be another young Charlie Christian is now the worst offender of all. That's exactly what it says on the liner notes of Breezin', "It was as if the young Charlie Christian, who left this world at the tender age of twenty three has taken possession of him. I wonder if Charlie Christian wore Aramis? George Benson should stop singing. He plays guitar too well to let that Vegas-voice If Breezin' is to be the criteria by which the Friday night concert is to be rated, then it should be noted that "Six to Four," an instrumental, still stands out as the best on that lush piece of vinyl interfere Benson's vocalizing does have one quality aspect. He scats duets with his instrument incomparably. But this talent was reserved for numbers like a covered "World Is A Ghetto," a song that loses its chance at being jazz by being vocalized. Ronnie Foster, who is coincidentally a Native Buffalonian, was responsible for the Benson turnaround. It seems that Benson introduced him as being involved in the most important projects of his (Benson's) career, those being the late In Flight, and of course. Breezin' No mention of Jack McDuff, Red Holloway, or any of real jazz people inspire the born-again the that (?) have guitarist. But may then again, the band was the entire crew from the two last albums, so maybe Benson is trying to forget the lean part of his career You'd figure on at least one other song other album, and that did But it was only "Here Comes the happen from The Sun" Other Side of Abbey Road. Also again, vocals. It's really too bad. from any that you just want to rub it all over yourself, the too-slick vocals find you sliding right off the surface of the music. Not to mention Melba Moore's outfit. Ve-e-e-ry slick. I can't say that those white tuxedos and blinking rhinestones diverted anyone's attention from the poorest sound quality at any concert this side of Rich Stadium. The sound people for both Benson and Moore committed double sacrilege: Much feedback in Kleinhans. And Moore especially should understand the importance of having a vocal carry powerfully without blaring too much. But she didn't. Everyone was very well-behaved Friday night. But I'd rather be carried away. I haven't seen too many jazz concerts in my life, but broadened my horizons haven't been any at this writing. Benson has the potential to attract the jazz audience that may feel put off by much of the avant garde things being produced. But he fails to take advantage of it. I'll wait and see what on their new record. Spyro Gyra will do Barbara Komansky Where Benson's guitar work is so smooth '/ Jm m ■ M m Prodigal Sun Friday, 16 September 1977 . The Spectrum .

The man is very optimistic and it doesn't seem that a bulldozer running over his foot would force his faith down. Shiver in the night, Pratt's third album, contains eleven little candy bars, some make it to your mouth white most melt in your hands. Andy is the composer for one classic song, "Avenging Annie," which might have further suffered lack of recognition if it wasn't for Roger Oaltrey's recent cover of it. Between the release of Pratt's early single and this album, he has been as anonymous as his stunning debut 45. Nevertheless, Shiver in the Night is irresistably pleasant, even if some of it dribbles right off of the turntable. Fortunately, there is an avoidance of heavy self-contemplation and a focus on pastoral romance. Each cut carefully blends the pop ballad with electrical ornaments, not too far away from Framptonland. What is certainly amazing about Pratt's lyrics is that he transforms cliche phrases into statements that sound ironically convincing, which is mostly talent rather than luck. The most exceptional cut is "I Want to See You Dance," a disco-ish number that contains a deft mix of romance and eroticism in the outstanding words: Late last night under a sycamore tree. The Cambridge moon came calling me. Seven sea gulls from New Orleans, Calling hey there, lucky boy. You got everything you need. I wanna see you dance, I wanna see you dance, Like a child of love. Don't you know you're free. Takes a woman like you to bring out ) The moon in me. ■ ■ ■■ '■ j' Yes, the word "love" is mentioned at least twenty times per song and images of the sky, water and dreaming are used frequently throughout the album. There is no fault in this but a great deal of the time, there is a ' surprising lack of melody. This is where much of the impact is lost, for lyrics such as these need better musical treatment Arif Mard.n again forms effective string and hom arrangements for his second endeavor with Pratt. Even these tight charts can not rescue most of the musical humdrum of Shiver Injhe Night. Hopefully, Pratt can be more consistent on the next time around.— Drew Reid KenRay ChaHes/Cleo Lane, Porgy and Bess (RCA) In Cleo Laine's bubbling cauldron, voice is a heavenly lament; a rise to self-inflict optimism in the rise of a realism so pessimistic as to be bloody angels at play. The people portrayed in- Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess a daily play to ward off demons and the people who think they know this 'game' (only to discover themselves used by each other. Checkmate as a wedlock of doom.) A few minutes now, please, as I point some examples. Listen to Cleo on "My Man's Gone Now" the beautiful vocal slide an up ride to impossible heights/not even a strain Cleo comes like summer rain. Change My Man's Gone/Now I'm Coming To. Right This Scene. Circle's curve craves killing's end. Cleo's cry, a defiant ring/clarity born of more than reaction, though some actions she (and we) shall see are to be cancelled out. Ray Charles on Summertime is rough a fineness that is often missed by the unhearing since the emphasis here lullabye often falls on sadness (qt lulling bye suicide i.e. sleeping through a revolution: Your thoughts growing?) and not the reason why. Most can see/now/(did many see when Mr. Gershwin unveiled this opera in '1935/did he?) the toughness generated daily to bear undue abuse/a determination disguised in child behavior/(which this land yet doesn't understand its young cr old) a bravery captured blood hold in Ray's unique grandeur. Then comes Cleo/golden bush horn 'where the sun never sets,' as is said in London/with that strong honeyrich tone and power backed by a depth that few can withstand (some think she has no right to have)/and she hits this song with the sarcasm of Bessie Smith and the uplifted (flamboyant) eyebrow flavor of Lena Horne or Beverly Sills. The . unspoken satire generated by her, and by her and Ray in excellent duet might go like this Summertime (but this s~t it cold) and the living iteasy (it too hard to die whips, dogs, frogs) Fish are iumpin (but niggers stravin' HUH!) and the cotton is high (yeah, money get th'pick o' THIS crop) 0 yo' daddy's rich (he ain't my pick he stole me) and yo' ma is good lookin' (that's how I got in this mess) so hush HT baby (but He straigh t, and 'til we get the props) don’t you cry - — - (be coo!) and so on. - — — — — — = The same irony voices itself in "I Got Plenty of Nothin'" a lost of feelings sparked in Ray's piano at the center of a symbol, still a man (Nice to hear him play again.). Met by grit guitar, a duo sound that captures the atmosphere of a real Catfish Row no fairy tale for us. Different (totally related) dynamics next as Cleo and Ray vocalize and underline throughout into the field, song of tragicomedia overtones that are to be felt more than most people do a hip hobo clown to be hit in the fact by pie eventually (Thanks, Richard Pryor, for the in the sky gritty soliloquy a warning, De light.). Porgy, (who this song is sung by), indeed, is of a level to be viewed, not just witnessed our views, an invite. With the Bess elements present, again we feel multiplication of that enduring of pain. As Carmen McRae sang evocatively. Only Woman Bleed, which is (esp. here) a cuttingly concise critique to be carried forward for correct completion. Ray Charles, thie promise of the Sun, and Cleo Laine, the evidence of brighter stars in the sky. Showing the torn toil and tapered threads of an existing order which must change on First Power: The Strength of Love. An arms talk on our way. -Michael F.

These two albums portray what is most notable about their particular outgrowth of American rock and cynicism, dieetsd over and roll: with laycn of alternately sweet and biting guitars, and harmonies.

Am AJC A AM of the year's finest; and is the demanded highquality that was often undelivered on their solo efforts. But die Neil Young album is the most real and immediate release of the year. Young plays and sings rock and roll with a vengeance unmatched by any singer-songwriter (how ill-fitting that tide hat become) to have evolved from the late sixties folkish aggregation. He may well prove to outlast anyone in the battle to maintain sanity and artistry fought within the performer. Where the CSN album is almost pure in its trueness to the individual styles of the group members, the Neil Young disc is parodic in and of itself. Side one,' which best reflects this idea, is played by the bullets. They are the latest evolution from Crazy Horse, carrying forward Bully Talbot and Ralph Mlina. The side also features Ben Keith of the stray Gators, violinist Carole Mayedo. and vocalists Nicolette Larson and (surprise) Linda Ronetadt. Odd as that sounds. Ronstadt adds more by way of contrast to Young's spare vocals than CSN did. Not that one is better than the otber( you understand; it's just that the Bullets are singularly suited to the mood evoked by the tide. The slightly flat violin matches Young in tonality and offsets the more traditional style of Ronstadt and Larson. Thb irony of the pedal steel is perceptive at to be amazing: If I were the Eagles. I would be embarrassed by the disdain audible in The Old Country Waltz and "Saddle Up The Palomino." "It's a cold bowl of chili when love lets you down / But it's a neighbor's wife I'm after." Young is dumped and left with only his horse, comically, like the good oT boy left up the creek without his Porsche Targa. What is also amazing about the sarcasm is that it is heavy with references to Harvest, Young's most commercial (and successful) recording. In spite of all this however. Young still manages to come up with what ii probably the best real country-rock number since "Take It Easy." "Hold Back the Tears" even pays lyrical tribute to the Eagles, a band Young once thought he'd like to Join: Two lying fools, and then four crying eyes ..." It's so simple as to be practically deceiving. "BBite the Bullet," which concludes the side, is so raunchy that it's immediately great. The female vocalists are outstanding on this side. Ronstadt, in particular, virtually outshines the entire volume of her own work, which at times can be too evocative for its own good. All of side two is work that is a year or older, but, if we have to wait that long to get another song like "Hurricane," it's fine with me. "You are like a hurricane / There's calm in your eye ..." Without question, it's the finest usage of an old image ever devised. And side two is raw. It's the way unadorned, unsynthesized rock and roll should be played. Face it. the term "best" is rather inescapable at a time like this. While CSN falls short of the immediate brilliance of American Stan and Ban, it compensates quite fairly in style and production. Crosby is still a spacey politic. Stills remains the maltreated, gruff romantic at heart, and Nash is forever the quietly lyrical poet But the unforgivable excesses of the individual careers have been admirably laid to rest. It's almost an overcompensating apology, from Crosby especially. "Shadow Captain" is more believable than "Almost Cut My Hair," and slips in rather than hitting you annoyingly over your head. Stills' Latin youth is beautiful in "Dark Star," one of the most palatable moments, and "See the Changes," despite the pretentious-sounding title, is the best three vocal ballad since "Helplessly Hoping." and since CSN wrote the book on those, it's the best comparison. Nash stole the performance here, despite heavy competition from Stills. The album's single, "Just a Song Before I Go," better describes the moment of parting that any ballad of the whole affair. His description of encountering his stewardess wife is lovely; "You came from out of the blue." "Cathedral" is profound but not preachy: "I'm flying in Winchester Cathedral / All religion has to have its day." 1 All the songs on the release are finely crafted, obviously the product of many hours of effort. But that's what American Stars and Bars has over CSN: Raw power is never sacrificed for polish. And raw power is often the missed Buffalo in releases lately. The original CSN album of 1969, was polished, but so fresh that it didn't matter. But considering CSN as a milestone rather than trendsetter is easier when considering its They more than any other two merits. Get both releases this year redefine whatever it is they call that kind of rock these days. —Barbara Komansky — C.O.D. 4% ofprtem V OUAMAMTEED only uHth m.O. or CorMHoM ft.

This lovely a product is of the persistent wall of music which covers phenomenon everyone each summer. What better way to begin my Second Annual Summer Music Review and tie the notes and weather together. I sat down and wrote a list of 10 songs. These are songs which I heard on the bus going to camp, when the kids would spot me from the corners of their eyes instinctively mouthing the words. When I was coming home late at night from the Island (guess which one?), I purposely tuned to a station that programmed this popular music so I could sing along and not doze off behind the wheel. Perhaps you can this past summer, • rr\ BOARD / Cooney THE ONE MAN FOLK FESTIVAL were attracted to them? scooped out two candidates for the summer's Kickass I Driving Song. Ones that Al the Bus Driver revved up the moment they have hit the airwaves and pressed his foot a little further down on the gas the pulsating bass chord riffs of Heart's "Barracuda" reached my senses, I felt like pulling out my Jimmy Page Guitar Playing Manual and re-reading it. Ann Wilson maks you feel super-guilty, screaming out viciously at the main who has "tales to tell - they never pedal. When fail." This is surely the winner over Steve Miller's "Jet Airliner," the sequel to "Rock 'n Me," that gave me some thoughts on Miller being an asthmatic. For those who were slow dancing at the neighborhood parties, you may recognize Leo Sayer crooning "When I Need You" into your ear and you just couldn't help holding on tighter. yVith a sax solo dubbed in on the single version, this further heightened the soap opera romance of this cut by one of rock's most dynamic singer/songwriters. Speaking of soap operas, the little six-year-old girls on my bus hypnotically chanted the catchy refrain of Andrew Gold's "Lonely Boy." Gold is a marvelous musician and showed his full deck this past summer as a superb composer of pop. "Lonely Boy" is the worst track on the second album by Gold, so you don't know what you're missing on the rest of it. Another newcomer that made it big this summer past was Foreigner with their moog-intwined rocker, "Feels Like the First Time." a half-ass local band across the street used to play a lame version of it and every Sunday, the female vocalist did injustice to my ears as well as the song. This soon-to-be rock standard came off of a debut record which reminds me of the amazing consistency of Boston's opening shot last fall. If the dancing moved up to the rock the-boat beat, the uptempo drum solo that led into "Whatcha Gonna Do?" by Pablo Cruise was the inevitable clincher. From the sun-drenched album, A Place in the Sun, these boys wouldn't let you drop that "good thing when you've got it in your hands." A sure-fire tune full of bright guitar leads that practically dripped out of the speakers was made for Top 10 airplay. Comic relief came in the form of lOcc and their second smash hit The Things We Do For Love." There were so many hooks in those few minutes, you might have gotten cut. If you could identify with Eric Stewart's and Graham Gouldman's lovers' pratfalls, they were just the sidedish to the main course melody What I can picture about the diabetic "I'm in You" is that when I saw Frampton sing it on the Mike Douglas Show, I was waiting for a band of heavenly angels to swarm in from above. “Terrific words," my Friday, Sept. 16 at 9:30 pm Saturday, Sept. 17 2 shows 8:30, 10:30 Cafeteria 118 Spaulding Cafeteria/ Amherst Ellicott Tickets are BEER - WINE refreshments 1st Floor SQUIRE/MAIN (please note time differences) available at BOTH campuses ticket - — offices and other will be available STUDENTS $1.00 Faculty/Staff $1.25 Public $1.50 � UUAB is Div. of Sub-Board 1, inc. a mother commented sarcastically from the kitchen. Yeah, well, those words belonged to a song that was certainly not at Frampton's romantic best (compared to "Baby, I Love Your Way?"). Anyway, enough female friends sang that simple-minded seduction to persuade me to reluctantly like it. Before "Don't Stop" became the third successful single off of Fleetwood Mac's Rumours, I pondered why it wasn't the first. In a low voice, I samg the chorus at Ronda's house at night in her kitchen, after checking out a nearby film. Christine McVie made the most of three chords in the thumping musical piece of advice Since quiet simplicity made a better ending, James Taylor’s cover of the oldie, "Handy Man," lifted from the magnificent JT, best summed up the qualities of the summer fever. Basic guitar picking, an adhesive tune and a captivatingly easy chorus was the equivalent to any carefree night before I left Ronda to go up to school. It was especially reminiscent of the last night together walking down the boardwalk of Jones Beach on a brisk evening and that unsure feeling in my head. Some radio nearby was playing "Handy Man" and now it brings back a Pavlovian response. Next year, before the summer's wildness sets in, think of the songs you heaid over and over again the previous year. Feel out the types of songs they were, how they affected you and it won't be hard to find new ones with a similar purpose. There will always be a barrage of guitars that will provoke your killer instinct and another that will be the one you want to have played over the radio when your mate is Drew Reid coming over to go out.

There were nine board members: two presidents of private colleges, one banker, three representatives of the public, the Commissioner of Education, and the Chancellors of SUNY and CUNY. HESC opposed the bill because it felt four students were too many. In addition, HESC was concerned over the fast turnover of student members. (Other board members serve six year terms.) Such a concern. Packer said, amounted to an argument against inclusion of any students on such boards.

The score that won the game for Niagara, as far as Esposito was concerned, came about as the Bulls made a costly mistake. “Our fullbacks got their signals crossed and this allowed the Niagara player to walk right in and take a 3-2 lead,” explained Esposito. Although behind late in the game, the Bulls played as if the contest had just begun as their hustle allowed Karrer to score after a scramble in front of the Purple Eagle net. Barry Kleeman’s pass from Karrer’s left set up the goal. Fateful overtime The first five-minute overtime period was scoreless as both offenses could not get untracked and the defenses played well.

The first thirteen minutes of play saw end to end action with several good scoring opportunities wasted as both the Bulls and the Eagles had difficulty finding the opponents’ net.

That is to say, at this point, it does not exist. The responsibility for maintaining any semblance of an office has been passed on by Sub Board to Group Legal Services. What was not passed on was a coherent plan to insure that the functional ability of the service would not be impaired and that time would not be lost in the interim. The fact of the matter is. Sub Board really dropped off campus housing onto Group Legal Service's shoulders, but didn't give them a body or legs on which to stand. What this alludes to is that to provide the maximum service possible to students (and at this time of year that service is vital), the sheets on the boards must be changed daily. Most importantly, a separate telephone line and personnel to operate it must be provided, because that is the only means of offering fresh names and numbers of landlords and possible vacancies to students who are now sleeping on their friends' living room floors. Group Legal Services has neither the phone lines nor the secretarial capacity to handle constant calls and new names and addresses. To not provide them with such facilities was a big mistake on Sub Board's part. Sub Board is therefore urged to either allocate to Group Legal Services the money to hire a secretary and to buy another phone line specifically used for off campus housing, or to directly provide GLS with a phone and a secretary, both so necessary to insure a maximum service to students. Special appreciation must be given to one Elissa Buckman, a student who works at GLS and who happer.ed to take an interest in the off campus housing proceedings. She made phone calls and actually provided much of the information that appears in today's article. She didn't have to get involved, but felt compelled to do so because it seemed that "no one was doing anything about the situation." Maybe she regrets getting involved; it is hoped not. No one should ever regret getting involved. Remember Kent State ft is a direct affront to students everywhere and a blow to the remembrance of the anti-Vietnam War movement and a shocking insult to the souls of those four students killed in 1970 that Kent State University officials in Ohio have decided to continue construction of a gym annex on the site of the infamous May 4, 1970 massacre. At that time, students who had the guts and the presence of mind to stand up against the American government and its involvement in the filth of the Vietnam War faced nervous, trigger happy National Guardsmen OB a grassy hill and soccer field on the Kent State University Campus. 13 seconds later, four students lay dead and nine wounded. AH were shot from behind. No Guardsman was ever charged for their deaths. To build a gym on that site is to glorify what the students were demonstrating against, the Vietnam War. and is to attempt to eradicate their place of struggle and death in American history. This past summer, students and faculty from this University (including three The Spectrum editors) participated in demonstrations at Kent State University against the building of the gym. The Spectrum's position has not changed. "Remember Kent State, Move the Gym." Hundreds were arrested this summer when they refused to leave the construction site. Many more will undoubtedly be arrested in the days and weeks to come, because students there are talking about tearing down the fences surrounding the site and impairing the bulldozers that now occupy the land. The Spectrum supports any course of action students there plan to take to prevent construction. The May 4 Coalition at KSU knows the consequences of whatever it deems necessary to foul up the designs of university officials. Its members are prepared to struggle just as their older brothers and sisters did in 1970. Don't forget them. Show your support.

Through the column, we at SA would like to inform students about campus affairs involving SA and highlight other issues of student concern. By doing so, we hope to ease the communication problems that have existed over the last few years. Consequently, we hope that a more informed student body will result in a more active student body working toward common goals. Another reason for the creation of this column is to be a kind of liaison between the Amherst and Main St. campuses. Confusion will abound surrounding this year’s move to Amherst by many academic departments, the student governments, and the University Central Administration.

Roman's letter ("Appeasement of Jewish Minority”) concerning the Jewish Holy Days, let me first say that the minority he is speaking of is a minority of approximately 3000 students, according to the number of students that indicated their religion on the school’s optional questionnaire and 5400 students according to the This is in rebuttal to an article (?) that was in the issue of Monday, 12 September 1977, entitled "Appeasement of Jewish majority Jewish Student Union's figures. However, this number game of Mr. Roman's is a poor argument in any case, because we are talking about student ethics and not considerations, principles, and arithmetic statistics. Does Mr. Roman realize the significance of these Holy Days? (Apparently not!) Does he realize that any Jew wishing to observe these Holy Days in an Orthodox manner cannot attend classes? This is because he cannot write nor use electricity (including motorized transportation). This student is also required to attend services at specific time and is not able to go to a later service in order to make up for the one he missed during his classes. Does Mr Roman think that the Orthodox Jew wants two extra vacation days'* Come on now, Mr. Roman, let us use our heads, furthermore, is It fair for a student to be religiously discriminated against (can t attend lectures, lake labs or exams, nor obtain materials from that day for (he next day’s lectures, labs, and exam)? This right of religious students has been protected in the N.V.S. Higher hducation Law (Section 224-a) entitled SliiJt ni I > nahle Heean.se nj KcHkihiis Hellels hi AllcnJ Classes nn Certain Dues for years. Don't you think it was about time that we actually followed the spirit of this law? I hope Mr Roman is able to see that his argument of giving off another Holy Day as a tradeoff is nonsensical. (As a sidepoint, Xmas is already mandated by the SUNY System because of its importance to Christians). The problems of each Holy Day involved are unique and these days can’t actually be compared to each other. I urthermore, Mr Roman, this problem is not as plain cut as you make it out to be. I’ve worked on this problem for a year and was the one instrumental in obtaining these days as mandatory days off for twenty-nine state schools. The contents of this letter nor one twenty times this size would do justice to all the unique hassles the Jewish students confront during classes on these days. In conclusion, may all the students use this time off toward their academic goals and may all the Jewish students use this time to observe their Holy Days, in a proper unrestrained manner.

The article entitled "Appeasement of Jewish minority" borders on slander and accentuates the narrowminded abilities of the writer. I am of the Jewish faith and am proud of it but I also respect the faiths of others and do not attempt to slander or chastise them My first criticism upon reading the first part of the article was here is a person that after four years of college can only remember the negative qualities of a learning institution. Upon continuing to read I realized the true content of the article. My reason for writing this is not to be the avenging angel of the Jewish people but only to attempt to clearly and without prejudice review the claims made by Mr I’at ('. Roman. Perhaps an appropriate start would be to begin a sentence taken from ''Appeasement of Jewish nimlony" I quote; are "The minority tokl that is the article appeased a ml the religions (heir or insignificant." Bullshit, I don’t know whether Mr. Roman realizes it or not but since the independence of this country there is no majority or minority. We are all Americans with equal rights no matter what our religious beliefs are or our colors. In the article Mr. Roman composed with a great deal of thought, he neglected to mention the holidays of Christinas and faster, and also the law of one time that stores are to be closed on Sunday's. I also was not aware that in order for a person or persons beliefs to be respected, they must be in a position of plurality In conclusion, Mr. Roman. I respect your feelings yet I think you should show a little consideration for the feelings of others as that will probably help you immensely upon your imminent graduation from the State University of New York at Buffalo. Mark I. Ah inht ri; It’s high time To the I Jilor In I’at C f*/l2, Roman Roman's letter in The S/ieelrnni ol claims that by recognizing Jewish religious holidays, the University is "departing even more from a Stale Institution."

Some planned to study Some planned to party. Some planned to straighten out their classes, and some planned to pray Surprisingly enough, no one planned on doing any suffering II Mr Roman feels slighted in regard to his religious beliefs, it would behoove him to take it up with the administration.

Ih in e Dm non Friday. 16 September 1977 . The Spectrum Page twenty seven �Uirging the Governor Editor's note: The following letter was sent to Graduate Student Carey by Association Vice President Stephen Shanlev. Governor Hugh Dear Governor Carey 1 write to you about the current SUNY budget crisis in three capacities as a graduate student in Clinical Psychology, as Administrative Vice President of the Graduate Student Association, and as a New York taxpayer. My education has already been jeopardized enough due to past SUNY budget cutbacks without having to endure further projected cutbacks this year. I’ve seen a steady deterioration in the quality of my faculty, as several excellent non-tenured and even tenured faculty have left for more challenging and rewarding positions elsewhere. There’s a hopeless feeling in my department and several others that the University is going downhill and that its promises of improved laboratory, classroom and research resources cannot be delivered. There’s also a growing resentment here that SUNY Central and ex-governor Rockefeller decided to mortgage the future of the University through the construction of the mammoth and extravagant Amherst Campus. Students are just now becoming aware of the cost of retiring the Debt Service on terms designed more for the bankers’ profit motives than for the educational needs of the students. What bitter irony that students will be driven away from an ever more expensive <nd less comprehensive university education while that monument to bureaucratic vanity continues to suck up dwindling financial resources! SUNY Central seems unable to place student needs as a top priority in their budgeting. What a fungus they have become, feeding off society’s desperate need for an educated and critical populace! I’m afraid that many students have also succumbed to a narrow, self-serving and bureaucratic definition of education. This gives taxpayers the false impression that students don’t return to society the investment society makes in their education. In this cycle of forgotten ideals, lost enthusiasm, and deteriorating public support everyone loses. Once again the burden of change and revitalization falls on the shoulders of the person most accountable and hence open to the average taxpayer voter, and student. In your recommendations for the SUNY budget, I and literally thousands of concerned graduate and undergraduate students ask that you use the power of your office to return student needs to the top priority they truly are. This could be done in several ways: Insure full funding of I OP, TAP and SUS 1. forms of financial assistance and, specifically, raise teaching stipends for SUNY graduate students, who currently are among the poorest paid graduate workers in any major university system, 2. Place a ceiling on projected price rises in tuition, dorm rent, and ancillary services; 3. Freeze construction debt service payments to banks or arrange a less costly and damaging form of paying for the excesses of past administrations; Mandate the creation of state-supported 4. university day care centers, which can free students and would-be students to more efficiently and securely pursue a university education, 5. Insure adequate health care for students, a group traditionally lost in the confusion between family policies and makeshift University policies; 6. Improve the existing inadequate library resources of SUNYAB; 7. Instigate reorganization of the SUNY bureaucracy, to improve efficiency and the quality of faculty and administrators alike. Finally, let me add my sympathy for the people who have to deal with this crisis. A budget cut hurts students directly, but budget increases don't necessarily filter through to Improve the quality of a student’s education or life. Revitalization is needed throughout the SUNY system, hopefully, some of the above suggestions can help both you and us to achieve this goal. Stephen Shuttle \ President Student Assiiciullnti.

The mass movements to learn from Taching in industry and from Tachai in agriculture are surging ahead on an unprecedented scale. Undoubtedly, a new leap forward is taking shape in China’s economy Furthermore, the mass struggle to expose anil criticize the “Gang of Four” is pushing forward the revolution on the scientific and technological front, in education, in literature and art, and in public health 1977. Indeed, in 1976, one witnessed extraordinary political disorders in the People’s Republic with the respective deaths of late Premier Chou Fn-lai and Chairman Mao Tse-tung of the Party. Fven Hua himself had timely admitted such a critical Chinese historical moment at the end of the year. Nevertheless, the Chinese leadership change in time, according to their own interpretations, was indeed another and yet greater victory won in the continued process of the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution, launched by Mao personally eleven years ago. As exemplified by the overwhelming results of the current political line and class struggles, the socialist Chinese revolution has once again overcome another political as well as cultural stalemate, that would promoted have otherwise subversively great economic stagnation and social discontent across the country. The exposure of the “Gang of Four” has indeed brought forth China a present excellent new situation and hope. It has be»n in fact a tremendous liberation of the Chinese people in many terms, especially in their thoughts and productive forces, in particular, according to a recent editorial of the No one China observer from distant lands could analyze the present new situation in the People’s Republic more accurate than any of (he actual Chinese history makers himself. Ilua declared in the congress that the smashing of the “Gang of Four” marks the triumphant conclusion ol the First (ireat Proletarian Cultural Revolution which lasted eleven years, and this has ushered in a new period ol development in the country’s socialist revolution and socialist construction. Now, stability and unity can be achieved and great order across the land can be attained in the continuing revolutionary course of making China a great, powerful, and modern socialist country before the turn of this century. As now People's Daily . While there have been many different speculations the world over with regard to China’s future development, stability, and unity since the death of Mao, no one will now deny that ld76 was indeed a critical historical turning point for the Chinese people as well as their rightful destiny in pursuing their socialist revolution and socialist construction. The present situation in China is very good, Hua pointed out in his political report to the I 1th Party Congress. It has been indeed in accordance with what Mao had said at the beginning of the Cultural Revolution “C.reat disorder across the land leads to great order.” Wise as being claimed to be by the Chinese people, llua has in actuality proven to he surmountable of their expectations, and most importantly, efficient Since October, l l »7b, the exposure of the “Cang of four’s” attempted and of upsurging political criticisms their exemplified by mass Page twenty-eight The Spectrum . Friday, 16 September 1977 hailing demonstrations immediately alter the closing of the timely and decisive 1 I th Party Congress, very obviously. Ilua has succeeded consolidating the Party cadres and further boldly thrusted them with an important historic task. Such mass demonstrations had only been witnessed by distant observers associating with victorious historical events in the People’s Republic. Thus, what remains to be seen is yet the timely outcome of such a Chinese historic task to be actualized m the land of great order.

The tough assignment of forming one cohesive defensive unit has been given to George Carlo and Martin MacVittie. Carlo will be dealing strictly with defensive line, and, as you have to stop 'em before you can beat ’em, he certainly will have his hands full. MacVittie will be working quite hard along with Carlo to ensure a solid defense. Although he is rather young, MacVittie has excellent experience as a coach. From 1968 until the demise of UB’s football program in 1970, defensive played MacVittie halfback for the Bulls.

The following year he was tapped by Southern Methodist University (SMU) for assistant his coaching duties. In 1966 Dsndo made the move to UB, coaching the linebackers until 1970.

Donner was even more optimistic. “We’ll surprise a lot of people,” he said. “Right now we do have a good nucleus to work with.” But if the revitalized football program is to get off the ground, it’s going to take more than just players’ and coaches’ involvement.

The Specturn Friday, 16 September 1977 . TRB Chairman Thompson took his subcommittee down to Roanoke Rapids, N.C. for the hearings and asked representatives of the J.P. 45,000 Co., with Stevens employees and $1.5 billion net sales around the world, to appear. They didn’t. There are several Stevens plants in the vicinity. Louis Harrell was one of the workers. He testified huskily. He worked there 26 years, he said. He quit, he explained: “I got to breathing so bad.” Diagnosis; bysslnosis (brown lung). That was a couple of years ago. -It'S a curious contest, this one between Mrs. Bailey and Louis Harrell on one side and the gigantic conglomerate on the other. Stevens probably makes the sheets you sleep on tonight (Utica and Tastemaker). It’s the second largest textile firm in the country. And ingenious; it has found that a big firm doesn’t really have to 1935 Wagner Act. It’s obey free enterprise. Forty-two years after the law declared it, “the to policy of the United States and encourage the practice procedure of collective bargaining,” J.P. Stevens has found it cheaper to pay occasional fines in low-wage states than to obey the law. Crime pays. Do I exaggerate? Here are excerpts from the finding of the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, handed down on August 31. If ... said that the court is probably a little bit miffed. In earlier cases (“Stevens I and II”) the Court Labor upheld the National Board’s finding “that Stevens has engaged in massive violations of its employees’ rights ....” Now it is shocked to discover that “these cases marked only the beginning of Stevens’ battle with the union” that got it the reputation of “the most notorious recidivist” in the field of labor law. The Court finds none of the new transgressions as imaginative as earlier ones, when for example in 1973 Stevens bugged the motel room where the union was organizing its campaign. But the court found that Stevens had coerced and fired employees; “the of using minor or pattern non-existent rules to harrass union organizers is unmistakable.” If Stevens pays a fine for the government defying the law pays half the tax law permits the fine to be written off as a legitimate business expense. And the same benign government gives out contracts to the violator; just recently Stevens got a $3.4 contract for Army million clothing material. (Defend your country in a non-union uniform.) The union is trying to organize a bpycott of Stevens’ products — - hosiery, (Fruit-of-the-Loom Oulistan carpets, etc.).

In addition. Student Association (SA) President Dennis Delia claimed that he had been given a promise by University President Robert Ketter that once the idpey slated for Amherst construction is received, Phase H of the gym will receive top priority. The lack of a SUNY-wide construction plan has been a continual source of aggravation and disappointment for administrators and students here who have resolved to get the new campus built. According to Delia, die State Division of the Budget (DOB) has, in die past, withheld funds due to the failure of the SUNY Board of Trustees to produce a comprehensive construction {dan. Now Delia feels DOB will have no choice but to deliver the funds appropriated for Amherst construction. fa the late 1960s, when plans for “the campus of the future” were devised, a construction ceiling of S6S0 million was set. Since then, the State has spent approximately S300 million far the campus, while officials anxiously await the release of the remaining funds. ‘‘Well never get what was originally appropriated," Delia said, “but we are looking forward to the plan’s development so that, construction can continue next year.” Phase 11 has long been considered the more important portion of the gym since.it will house a gymnasium and a natatorium, including a triple gym, a squash court, a swimming pool, a diving pbp), classrooms and a spectator and press area. Phase I will feature a field house which will include a playing floor, seating far 10,000 people, i lecture hall and a locker area. of Federal The Capital procurement Construction Funds earlier this summer will enable work to begin on Phase 1 in April, 1978. If the essential buildimu Delia said uuuuuigs, vnH “Whatever buildings are on the priority list will be the first to to up. We want to see as many Amherst buildings on that list as possMt.*^ Delia felt that priority should be given to a music hall, libraries, student activity buddings and a lecture hall. The fate of the student union is particularly emgmantic since only three of the original six structures have been completed, while the remaining three have not been given priority. Hence, student organizations have found themselves divided between Main Street’s Squire Hall and Amherst’s Nortun-Capcn-Talbert Complex. Recently, construction resumed on the Amherst campus with the awarding of three contracts to local firms. The Phillip Dorsheimer Laboratory (a biology greenhouse), the John Beane Center (a sendee and administrative building), a —aphnme, roads and utilities are presently undergoing construction. �i— * absolutely aosoiuieiy ” oscmidi Let us hope Ketter was heartened by work on the new projects saying: “The resumption of construction activity on our Amherst Campus is good news to both University and the Western New York community. The University needs these new facilities and the Western New York area desperately needs the employment that this construction will create. Let us hope that this is only the beginning of the process of completing the campus facilities so vital to the continuance of the University's quality academic, research and public service programs.” Ketter further warned that the campus will remain “non-functional” if not completed. Delia, commenting on Amherst’s present “non-functional” status, and the molasses-like construction process quipped, “For the yet unborn, there might be a nice campus someday.” After struggling for yean with overcrowded facilities and an understaffed faculty, the Division of Undergraduate Education has waived the physical education requirement for all students who have completed at least 12 credit hours. Incoming freshmen students win now be required to complete two semester hours of physical education in their first year. According to a memorandum issued by Walter Kunz, Acting Dean of Undergraduate Education, “Due to the University’s inability to offer enough sections of basic physical education (RAI) because of inadequate facilities and staff shortages, the University physical education requirement (two semester hours of 100 level RAI courses) is being wanned for all day students who have completed 12 or more semester hours.” Millard Fillmore College freshmen arc stfll exempt from the requirement. No more worry For students who have been dosed out of gym dataes year after year and were worried about finishing their requirement in order to graduate, the announcement earns as a relief. “We’ve had this problem for four or five years," said Kunz. “We required it (physical education), but didn’t have the facilities to accommodate all the students.” Viola Die bold, Coordinator of Base Instruction for' the Department another schedule The to do agreed for three yean to take tennis, and now 1 won’t be able to,” complained one disgruntled senior. physical - — Upperclassmen Allowed Both Kunz and Die bold emphasized that upperclassmen can take gym classes as long as they are not filled by freshmen first If there are extra spots in the dasses, seniors will pet them first. This solution is a temporary one at best, until a new gym is built on the Amherst Campus and faculty lines are restored. "We need about three buildings the size of Clark Hall,” said Diebold. The new gym has been approved by Albany, although construction has yet to begin. Students should benefit from taking physical education in their first year, said Diebold. “They’ll be able to establish skills early, and go on to participate in intramural, recreational or even intervarsity athletics,” die said. Will the overloaded facilities and staff be able to accommodate all of the freshmen this year? “We hope we can accommodate them in fire fall, spring and summer," said Diebold. And what three semesters happens if they can’t? “I don’t even want to think about drat,” said Kunz. ?■ - - Despite heavy use Off-campus housing office closed by Sub Board by Brett Kline Editorin-Chief then became, could we operate it for this much,” he said. Computer listings expensive “No one was happy with the service then and we received many phone calls about it," Black continued. "The computer listings weren’t worth what they should have been because they weren’t run enough,” he noted. Heidi Lewis, the director of the Off-Campus Housing Office, requested about $8600 from Sub Board for the 1977-78 school year. At the Sub Board budget hearings in August, the office was granted $6400. Two weeks later it was closed. Black estimated that the highest expense of the housing service was maintaining up-to-date computer listings, an expense that the administration could afford bnt that Sub Board and Group Legal Services could not. “A more effective method will be to keep the names on thk bpards outside the office, which will be continued under Group Legal Services,” he said. $850 has been aboeated by Sub Board for the purpose. Hack explained that when the transition was made from the administration to Sub Board i, the office’s budget was “paired down" to about $5500. “The question Office very bwy Dene Schweitzer, Due to a last minute budget crunch, Sub Board I has closed the Off-Campus Housing office. Originally financed by the University Administration, the Off-Campus Housing Office was turned over to Sub-Board’s jurisdiction last year, and continued to provide students looking for rooms, houses- and apartments with names of landlords and possible vacancies. Sub Board Treasurer Dennis Black said, however, that the Squire HaO office will be reopened “hopefully by Wednesday.” h will now fait under the jurisdiction of Croup Legal Services, which will assume responsibility as soon as some unexpected personnel problems are taken care of, according to Black. who worked in the office throughout the summer, was surprised and dismayed when acting director of Squire Hal], Bob Henderson, notified her on August 30 that die office space was being taken away. On September I the phones were taken out “In the last three or four weeks the office was wry busy,” said Schweitzer, “with about 2S people a day if not more coming up, phis the people outside looking at the boards.” She estimated that at least five landlords a day reported houses and apartments for rent to the office. Landlords often called in more than one house at a time. “Many elderly women with big houses called up looking for student roomers,” Schweitzer continued. “The office was packed with people the day it was dosed and it was definitely getting more crowded as school started.” As discouraged house-seekers found the office dosed, they began ripping down signs and names and addresses from the boards outside in the hall, realizing there would be no more service. Now, however, as Sub Board Treasurer Black emphasized, “The boards will be up with sheets and supervision no later than Wednesday ” �t#: j of summer events Move to buildings, MaimghiK h'Jllor .cupancy for five years.

The Administration has consistently maintained that individual representation of students, as a concept, does not adhere to SUNY guidelines for use of mandatory fees. Student leaders have, of course, argued the for over a year. opposite Currently, they are rewriting their proposal in order to make it more acceptable to University President Robert Ketter.

Late in the summer, Bethlehem Steel, the area’s largest industrial employer, dropped an economic bomb on Western New York by announcing a 40 percent cutback in production which forced the firing of thousands of laborers. The unexpected announcement dealt a cruel blow to the reeling Buffalo economy and fueled a drive by local politicians to improve the business climate in New York State.

His faith was too great to dispute the belief. “Everyone plays a little dirty at election time; 1; mean, it’s politics, right?” commented a young female Eve supporter. She was responding to the biggest issue in the campaign so far: Democratic mayoral contenders had charged Democratic County Chairman Joseph Crangle with totally running City Hall. They believed this “bossism” was a product of Erie County’s strong Democratic machine. At times during the campaign, Arthur O Eve and James Griffin indirectly and directly pointed out that the endorsed Democratic candidate Leslie Foschio was merely a puppet to be manipulated by Joe Crangle. But the women, who had been an . Eve backer since the mid-sixties, was caught off guard. She turned to leave, “Please don’t put my name er picture in the paper. It May jeopardize my job with Eve.” She turned to leave and began watching the football - fme. . .‘iJ S: % _ from animated to grim.

And then, he invoked the Holy Spirit for hope, He recalled Bobby Kennedy’s statement, Vhen the going gets tough, the tough get going.’ With religion and politics, all seemed well even political losers are ‘ winners. Grangle was dying, politically, By morning, 13 of 19 political candidates endorsed by Crangle had been defeated. One of the strongest political machines in the nation was dying too. Crangle, sometimes alluded to having the power of Chicago’s Richard Daley, would not say what happened to the machine. So Buffalo was the big machine. He stipulated he would run again to be the county’s chairman. Lips have a stiff upper labial when - rigor mortis sets in. Crangle’s end?

Eve claims victory before ecstatic s With less than half the votes tallied, Griffin declared himself a winner in the primary. He said he didn’t, have the money the other candidates had, didn’t have the pretty boy image of those in City Hall. Then his eyes turned heavenward as the effect became r- ‘somebody up there likes me.’ Middleclass, steel worker-type supporters gathered at the Peace Bridge Exhibition Center to celebrate. A south Buffalo employee of Bethlehem Steel chugged beer and mentioned how sweet victory was. A man wearing a ‘Dump Foschio’ T-shirt was euphoric as he agreed with the exuberant atmosphere. A number of Griffin advocates surrounded a television set to bathe some more in the glory. They were shocked, their mouths hung open in disbelief. Because Eve was ahead. By over 200 votes.

In order to comply with a SUNY Central order to justify the hundreds of four credit courses that require only three contact (classroom) hours, the committee examined all such courses and set specific guidelines for instructors to meet. All justifications submitted to the committee were eventually approved and, according to Dr. Murdock, “it is our feeling that many, if not the majority of the courses affected.have been ‘beefed up* in.order to pass the justification process.'* The areas most affected were the Colleges along with upper level Social Science and Arts and Letters courses. The courses that were justified will now require additional reading, more papers.s and more work outside of class. All professors teaching in the above areas were asked to substantiate the value of their particular courses according to a Set of criteria. Courses in the natural sciences (because of their fab time) and management courses (because of the management department’s total revision in 1969), already met these standards and did not have to be justified. The instructors were required to reflect the increased workload in their syllabi. defense of the new card. He. fell that in the past, II) cards had served too many purposes, stating, “It’s not meant to be an entrance ticket to a beer garden.” Squire Hall, the new card brings the response, “I need something with your signature on it.” Missing information The deleted information is also necessary for getting a beer in the Rathskeller, buying books by check and in case of accident or emergency. Many students, Student approval Dremuk stressed that the new card was designed with student approval. Lee Perez and Steven Schwartz, then coordinator of Student Affairs and president pf SA respectively, were official members of the ID card committee. According to SA Vice President Lalonds, assistant to the President Ronald Stein, also a committee member, stated that neither Perez nor Schwartz showed up at the meetings. Stein was reportedly in favor of including more specifics on the cards, but after the fifth meeting with no student representation, he claimed the attitude became, “if the students aren’t arguing for anything, then why should we?’’ One enterprising student, after receiving his card from the file, made for the nearest typewriter and, added his date of birth and major. Signing the back, he returned to Ilarriman to have the card completed with photo and lamination. especially those who do not drive, are under eighteen or have recently turned eighteen, do not already have proper identification. They must therefore rely on their University ID. “The new card lacks practicality,” agreed Student Association (SA) Vice President Andy Lalonde. “It serves no purpose whatsoever.” “We’ve had complaints but it doesn’t really matter,” said one student working on the ID assembly line. “The Administration does not care. It’s just like Kent State they’re going to build that gym anyway.” She further likened the ID improved says situation to the planning of the Dremuk that the sprawling, decentralized Amherst construction of the cards is an campus, which was termed by The over the more improvement Spectrum this summer as an flimsy paper used in past years. administrative scheme to prevent The cards are not suitable for use student uprisings. with the new library computer “They’re trying to restrict us selection system, he said.

Lack of pertinent ID data may cause difficulties this year for University police. When Food and Vending Services asked for patrolmen to check proof in the EUicott pub, police had to say no. "It’s impossible with no DOB (date of birth),” sighed Captain Jack Eggert. “The cards are no good and needless to say, they can be easily duplicated.” The cards are permanent, meaning they will not be reissued each year. The cryptic “17” which appears on all the new cards is a code for the date of issue, in this case, semester 1 of ’77. Validation for spring semester (27) will consist of a peel-off sticker in die space marked “OAR.” A heat stamp will be used for each new school year. Whereas the old cards cost S.1S each per semester, according to Dremuk, the new blue will cost only $.23 per student for four years. “It figures that since they’re good for nothing, they’re permanent,” commented sophomore JanisFox. Card committee set-up At a meeting last week with President Ketter, SA officers Delia, Lalonde and Seiden voiced the complaints of so many students. Lalonde stated since that Ketter seemed concerned and that a committee is being set up to look into the situation, adding that he believed some change will be made. Might there be a silver lining to the ID cloud? Well, who is to know that you’re not a student five years from now as you flash your undated card for a student discount rate? If your desire for gratification is more immediate, you can cash in on the chips at McDonalds. The “free frosh fries’* offer runs till February 28, 1978. Resubmission The Faculty-Senate Committee serves no role in ensuring that these changes are implemented. It will be up to the individual professor to follow the additional requirements set forth. Of all the courses that required justification, S-IO percent necessitated resubmission because their new standards were not sufficient to allow four credits for three contact hours. —continued on There IS a AjgU page 12— difference!!!

I described a week-long leafleting campaign outside the men’s room in Harriman basement, protesting Campus Security’s practice of employing undercover details to, ostensibly, clamp down on “deviate sexual activity” in that bathrrom. As documented in The Spectrum and Ethos articles over the past two years, such routine and continual patrolling turns out to be more an exercise in discrimination against gay males on this campus, than protection of the University community. I want to share some of the questions which arose among those who participated in the Co., Chicago 1970). Humphreys spent long hours inside public Johns, posing as a voyeur and “watchqueen” (who .looks out for the cops), and later as the sociologist, remember interviewing tearoom clientele about their jobs, families, political and religious background. Much of the information in this letter is taken from his - - work. Apparently, straight men are usually completely unaware of tearoom activity. Cruising stops when a stmager enters, and resumes only when/if he makes it clear that he is interested in playing. Obviously, cruisers are not interested in offending straights, molesting youth, and getting arrested. Thus the chance of any of these leafleting. .people accidently witnessing sexual activity 1)What is so special about the Harriman is slim. mensroom?

Indeed, the homosexual offence).

Additional persons were assigned to the rooms due to an increased demand for housing this fall. The great number of requests Cor dormitory accommodations necessitated the overcrowding. The decision to overcrowd the dorms, according to Director of Housing Madison Boyce was based on the belief that for every extra student accepted in the dorms, one would not show up. Boyce emphasized that the overcrowding problem is a temporary one, providing the “no-show” theory holds water. Boyce, who claimed that the number of “no shows” equals about four percent of die requests for housing, said the additional requests for housing this fall have equalled the estimated number of “no shows” and claimed, “hopeftdly no overcrowding will be left.” The overcrowding has affected doable rooms on the Main Street Campus and in the Governor’s Residence Halls at Amherst, along with some triple rooms in the EUicott Complex. According to Assistant Director of Housing Cliff Wilson, the triples in EUicott will be “de-quartered” first, and then overcrowded doubles wiU be handled. > M - High and low seniority The criterion used in determining which rooms were to be overcrowded, according to Boyce, was based ort a seniority system, whereby fiedunan and transfers were given the lowest priority. However, these were not the only people affected, for example, the fourth person in an overcrowded triple may have a low seniority code, but his three roommates may, in fact, have high ones. One outraged sophomore in such a situation complained of a freshman male who received a double, “I should have higher priority,” he said. Boyce, in response to this assertion said the entire program could not be reorganized to assure those with higher seniority of receiving their choices first. However, he indicated that such rooms were high on the list of rooms to be “de<|uartered.” Only the fourth person in each of the overcrowded triples was notified of the status of his room, due to a lack of time. One-RA in EUicott said it usually came as a big shock to those who could not be notified. Boyce, who said that it would be impossible to notify everyone in advance, daimed that the occupants of a room in substandard condition are entitled to in inconvenience fee reduction. Boyce explained that the housing office has already started the process of “de-quartering” by (droning those students who have not yet claimed their places in the dorms, and questioning them concerning | fC ,' { their intentions. in Latin Amarica for Human of General Pinochet'* military takeover Citibank opened a branch in Santiago, Chile lion.

Boyce said those students who apply for housing at a later date have a smaller chance of receiving the rooms they requested. The system which assigns people to rooms is operated sometime in July even though requests for housing continue throughout the summer. Those students whose housing applications are received after the initial system is run are placed in remaining rooms. This explains why law and graduate students who apply late are housed with undergraduates instead of in the designated areas in Governor’s and EUicott. When asked what will happen next year should the same surpluse situation occur, Boyce said an “analysis ofresidential space” is being conducted, whi'h includes the office space in Spaulding Quad and the space used by the residential colleges in the EUicott Complex. in December 1975 with $4 OUR SUPPER YES DAY You missed some great food (home cooked) and some good fun (volleyball).

First of all, it should be noted that the drop to Division III does not mean that UB’s teams will not strive for excellence. They most certainly will continue to strive for excellence. And the drop to Division III is not a “de-emphasis of athletics” as Buffalo’s newspapers and television stations reported. By going to Division-Ill, the University admitted that it cannot compete effectively at a Division I level, the NCAA’s highest level of of competition. Most Division I schools offer scholarships to most of their athletes, while SUNY schools are not permitted to give scholarships for athletics. As wrestling coach Ed Michael noted, “Budding a winner all boils down to dollars and cents.” Given that restriction, Division III seems to be the best choice. Division II has a scholarship structure similar to Division I, the only difference being that the total number of scholarships a school can offer in any sport ialess. Division III only allows scholarships based on need. Chance for a championship Another reason in selecting Division 111 was that it would allow many of Buffalo’s teams to compete in national championships in Division III, that is. In Division I, the Bulls’ chances of winning any national championships were nil. In fact, an old joke around The Spectrum office was that if a UB team ever did win a national title, the headline would • read: “Hell Fretzes Over!” Now, a national championship would not be quite so miraculous. Two examples should prove the point. Buffalo’s wrestlers had been moderately successful in Division I, but in their league, the Eastern Wrestling League, Buffalo won only one match in two years. However, against the Division III national champion, Brodkport State, Buffalo scored a 23-15 win. The other example concerns Eldred Stephens. As a track runner for Up, Stephens was good, but Rood tpopgh for a chance to compete in post-season play, However, Stephens transferred to Division HI Fredonia State and last year Stephens and his Fredonia team went to the national championships and did very well. Don’t get the impression, however, that going Division III will automatically turn all of Buffalo’s teams into winners. Last year, the UB basketball team lost by 30 points to Division III Albany, and - Best spot Basketball coach Leo Richardson and wrestling coach Michael both admitted they would have preferred to stay in Division I, but they conceded that under the circumstances. Division III may be Buffalo’s best position. Men’s athletic director Ed Muto said that the change would be a good thing for the Athletic Department, and under the 1 think he’s right. Baseball will remain in Division I. NCAA rules state that one sport at a Division III school can remain in Division I. Baseball was chosen because it has been extremely successful even without scholarships. In the last two years they have reached the playoffs and in 1976, they led the nation in team batting average. Hockey stays in Dninoo II, winch is an BCAC (Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference) designation, not an NCAA designation. It makes sense, too, because most of the team’s opponents are members of Division IL Miscellaneous: In case you missed anything over the summer, here is a quickie recap. Bulls’ pitcher Bill Casbolt signed a contract with the Kansas City Royals, and Mike Dixon signed with the Philadelphia Phillies. The track team and the fencing team have both been returned to vanity status after a one year absence. The scoreboard at Rotary Field reportedly has been fixed, and new scoreboards also have been purchased. Mike Reilly returns as Buffalo’s head athletic trainer. He held But position from 1974-76, but was at Canisius last year. Dick Baldwin is no longer officially the school’s Sports Information Director (SID), although he is still handling the duties until a new SID can be found. Mike Kitsch, Buffalo’s best golfer last year, is now UB golf coach. Connie Camnitz has been named women’s tennis coach and Betty Dimndck, last year’s tennis coach, takes over field hotkey.

The development will include retail stores, office space, and a 150-room hotel. vi'• The green light fur the $9-10 million project came as a signed lease between the State and the UB Foundation, which has designed plans for the development. Though legislation permitting the commercial development on State land was passed in 1975, DOB -held- uj> tjie • ' _ project by refusing to agree on various details of the lease. At the same time, inflation continually pushed the original S8 million price tag , upward. The major stumbling block had been DOS’s insistence that revenue from individual merchants be required to go to SUNY first, as payment for rent, rather than towards a bank mortgage. John Carter, chairman of the Parcel B Board of Directors, opposed the rent stipulation, claiming “no bank in the world” would grant the Foundation a mortgage under those terms. The new lease contains, instead, a grace period that, according to Carter, will allow the Foundation to accumulate rent for a number of years before paying the State. Start again With the lease in hand, the Foundation, an organization of University alumni and area business leaders, can reopen negotiations with private developers that had fallen off when the lease complications arose. “We were in the process of talking with these people in March, April and May of 1976,” Carter explained. “We really have to start all over again. The advantage is that now we have a lease to work with.” Although the selected developer will construct the project and lease the store space to merchants, he will operate under a number of constraints. The state must approve all building plans to insure that the development conforms to the “architectural language” of the Amherst Campus. The UB Foundation will have final say in what type of stores are placed in the 75,000 square feet of mail space. An advisory committee of students, faculty and staff will be assembled to assist in the selection of merchants. Cartas was not optimistic about construction starting this fan. “We’ll be In a better position to judge that in about five Weeks,” he said, “bat It would be highly unlikely that well be in the ground this year." Carter added that ifground were broken in the spring, “our goal wpuld be to have as much operational by'the time school opens next fifl.” The hotel; in which several large chains have expressed interest, would take longer to construct, he noted. S . Must be pieUy Pared B is located west of Lake LaSalle, between Samuel Clemens Hall and the Ellicotf Complex. Completion of the shopping mall witt be an important step in the uphill climb towards making the half-completed campus into a self-contained unit. Unlike other area mails, the project will have to be visually appealing from all viewing angles. This will complicate design somewhat, and more importantly increase construction costs. Rental rates to merchants will thus be higher and prices for various goods will probably follow suit. “There have only been guesses," Carter said in reference to how high rental rates would be. “I don’t think it’ll be high enough to discourage area merchants.” The Foundation plans to include in any agreement with a developer, stipulations setting fninimum hours for merchants. This will be to make sure die project satisfies the particular needs of the campus community. “We don’t want someone closing at 5:00,” Carter observed. “What good would that do the campus?” ~ ' Greater interest Carter expects to have no trouble filling the retail space which is restricted by law to the 75,000 square feet figure. If all goes well, he >■ explained, die UB Foundation may realize some monetary gain from the Parcel B project. “There could be a profit in the project for us," he said. “But it will not be a great one. Any dollars made out of the pidfect will be donated to the University for University projects . , scholarships, loans, etc.” Carter pointed to a “high degree of interest” about Parcel B among the business community that has “intensified since the lease arrived.” - - The project literally has “something for everyone.” Students will not be forced to trek off campus for many goods and services. The University will not have to provide bus service to Boulevard Mall, and complaints about the Amherst Campus being “isolated” should ease. The UB Foundation, as mentioned, may profit. The State of New York will receive about $35,000 a year in rent. The Town of Amherst will be issued “payments in lieu of taxes” for the ten acres of land which currently generate no revenue. Area merchants stand to gain a strong foothold in a potentially huge, but as yet unexploited student market, and the local construction industry will receive a much needed $10 million boost. • Delia proposes amendments in two Sub Board by-laws by John H.

NYPIRG has repeatedly charged that the utility reaped windfall profits last winter as thermometers plunged and gas bills soared. Also, the company did not pay wages to thousands of employees that were on strike for 18 weeks. Other utility companies in the state voluntarily offered rebates to their customers following the record snapping winter. These factors, coupled with suspicions that NFG was “hiding” profits by juggling their books, led NYPIRG last May to petition the State’s Public Service Commission (PSC) to allow NYPIRG to examine the company’s financial records. Rate increase requested Monday’s announcement that the PSC was granting that request came as something of a shock. It was believed to .be-the first such permission granted to a non-governmental agency by the PSC. Ihe decision to allow the audit came on the heels of NFC’s recent filing for a 2.2 percent rate increase. According to a PSC spokesman, it is “in the context of the current rate filing’’ that the auditing decision was made. The company has received considerable criticism for awarding over $1 million in bonuses to administrative and clerical employees who worked overtime during the strike. Despite relentless pressure from NYPIRG, the City of Buffalo and the County of Erie, NFG has steadfastly refused to issue rebates, claiming its profits were not excessive but ra|her well below the rate allowed by the PSC. profits NYPIRG has accused the utility of paying extra taxes in fire spring months in order to show smaller profits, “ft’s a question of where they’re burying their money said the Regional Director of NYPIRG, Ken Sherman. Uncovering the alleged buried profits will be the aim of the statewide ” consumer group’s audit. NYPIRG has called for a $10 rebate per customer which would total S6.2 million, although “some groups are demanding more,” according to Sherman. Although the PSC does not have the actual power to order rebates, it does determine utility rates and set allowable profit margins. The 12.3 percent rate of return allowed NFG by the PSC is significantly higher than other utilities across the state. According to Sherman, the PSC hopes to encourage exploratory drilling investment by NFG by granting the higher profit margin. However, he feels the company has shown little or no interest in gas exploration on the Niagara Frontier. National Fuel Gas has remained largely silent throughout the debate, repeatedly declining comment on possible rebates. �Sub Board.

The discussions involve representatives and counsels for the May 4 Coalition and for the Kent State Board of Trustees and Administration. Earlier this week, after a wire mesh fence had already been erected around the site and after bulldozers had already begun leveling land, the judge issued a restraining second temporary order, termed in the national press as a “stay,” to halt construction. Coalition representatives are seeking to halt all construction on the site, at least until the Department of the Interior in Washington determines whether the site should be declared a national landmark. One Federal Court spokesperson in Cleveland said, “The temporary restraining order halting construction is still' in effect. So fat there have been no any indications on further decisions.” Possible law suits Three specific issues are currently being negotiated before die judge. The first is a plea by the Board of Trustees to “vacate the temporary restraining order or to establish adequate bond.'’ Kent State University News Service Director Anthony May clarified these terms, explaining, “If they stop us from building, we want the plaintif (the Coalition) to post a bond to protect us against damages and possible law suits.

French nuclear advances The fact that several thousand from youths neighboring countries, who speak different languages and have in some cases very different cultural heritages, joined in Monday’s demonstration indicates that lines of communication are being established between opponents of nuclear energy in different Western European nations. Despite President Carter’s call for at least a temporary halt on international development breeder and the reactor use of plutonium, the French have made continual advances in their programs. Last month in Paris, they signed agreements with West Germany and other Common Market countries to continue research and development of the breeders and eventually market them abroad. The French government’s attraction to the breeder reactors is twofold: because they produce more fuel than they consume, the breeders would apparently reduce French dependence on uranium imports, and once built, would give France a substantial lead in the lucrative international market. The Super Phoenix breeder reactor has been a particular of nuclear target energy its because opponents funcdonability depends entirely upon the use of plutonium. They have argued that the plutonium can' also be used to manufacture nuclear bombs, that it is an if deadly poison extremely inhaled even in minute amounts and that there are no adequate safeguards to deal with a substance drat remains radioactive for thousands of years. Both the government majority and the leftist parties in France are faced with an important and pressing dilemma: how to garner the votes of the environmentalists and and-ttuclear forces in the legislative elections scheduled for next March. The Communists have called opponents of nuclear energy partisans of "a return to the days of sailboat navies and oil lamps,** thus reiterating their support For the maintenance of an military atomic independent force. demonstrations in order to magnify its criticism of die nuclear program. The two Western European nations most advanced in their Britain and nuclear technology have faced die West Germany most pressure from nuclear opponents, both in the courts and in die streets.

Peace Center expressed its concern about the nature of the Naval Park now being built in downtown Buffalo in a letter to Judge Anthony LoRusso (see page 13 of this issue for the complete text of the letter). Claiming that U.S. strategic missiles alone carry the destructive force equal to about 1000 times the amount of explosives used against both Germany , and Japan during all of World War 11, Peace Center Coordinator, Walter Simpson, said “we are concerned that the Naval Park will have the effect of glorifying war and weapons of war. This, we believe, is entirely inappropriate especially in an age of thermonuclear weapons The Peace Center, while agreeing that economic development is important for Buffalo, objected to plans to bring in more weapons, including a polaris missile. The Center’s letter to LoRusso also stressed the importance of designing tire park museum to reflect the horrors of war and the need to avoid future wars. Simpson asked LoRusso; “Can’t we , - — memorialize the victims of war in such a way as to help prevent future wars ..' and future victims?” The Peace Center is interested in working with the Naval Park Committee to insure that thepjrk does not have the effect of promoting a military mentality, especially in children who may come with school groups to visit the warships. The Peace Center is interested in helping to design the park museum so that it’s message is one of peace and not war. The Center’s letter to LoRusso closed by inviting him and members of the Naval Park Committee to join Peace Center members at the site of the Naval Park, Tuesday, from 1-2 p.m. for a vigil commemorating the 32nd anniversary of the atomic bombing of Nagasaki, Japan. The purpose of the vigil will be “to remember the victims of WWIl’s atomic bombs and to call attention to the on-going arms race which threatens our lives and the lives of our children” For more information, call Walter Simpson at 833-0213 or 833-3175.

Seven columns ago, I urged you to hike up to 355 Squire and thumb through back copies of The Spectrum. Well, although you have the feet for hiking and the thumbs for thumbing, you did neither. Had you done so, you would have some idea of what former Editor-in-Chief Rich Korin an meant when he discussed with me his image of this University as a “place of former greatness.” Rich Korman is like Merril Lynch when he talks, people listen. Well, I listened. And his thoughts crystallized the one elusive problem that haunts this University, and more strikingly, this office. The spector of what this University used to be looms over all of us. For a student journalist it is no less than tormenting. When the enormity of what occured here seven years back sinks into the often swelled head of a The Spectrum editor, he suddenly feels dwarfed in importance by his predecessors. It is a very disconcerting feeling to leaf through the old issues and come to the realization that nothing this paper could print now would even approach the impict of The Spectrum of 1969 and 1970. Our front page stories today would be their filler copy. There is a story, actually it’s kind of a folk tale, that floats around this office now and then. It is the type of yarn Out literally chilli the listener, no matter how many times it has been spun. It is about this columnist who was typing his column in 355 Norton. And, as he’s typing he begins to notice that tear gas is seeping into the office from fire first floor where on this night the cops were invading Norton HaU.

Beacon-Herald, the intelligent British actress Margaret Tyzack, while praising two of 'the directors with whom she is working this summer at the Stratford Shakespeare Festival (Robin Phillips and David Jones), declined to comment on Arif Hasnain, who is directing her in Ibsen's Ghosts. Having seen the production, it is easy for me to understand why. Hasnain provides no guidance at all for the actors, and they are left to flounder around on their pyvn, searching for a rhythm of interaction with one another. They fail to find one, and the first half of the play is a total loss. It is not until Nicholas Pennell's Osvald -assumes a dominant role halfway through that the production comes alive, and it is his extraordinary performance which rescues it. It is painful to watch excellent actors like Margaret Tyzack (Mrs. Alving) and William Hutt (Pastor Manders) isolated and exposed like this. They stand up there uttering words which never connect, lines that die as soon as they are spoken. And the blame for this lies almost pntirely, I think, with the lack of direction. Actors need the guidance a good director provides, the objective viewpoint which can perceive when something simply is not working, or is heading in the wrong direction. But the actors in the Stratford Ghosts do not get this kind of support. There is simply no pacing or control in this production. \ Tick-Dock r. f v-iA* a result, the characters remain self-contained caricatures. Hutt and Tyzaek never relate to one another. Instead of the rhythms of real human interaction, we have a kind of metronome of alternating speeches, in which each line is left on its own, and produces a response from the audience independent of its connection to plot or character. Because of the accumulation of these, Manders is reduced from a believable human being to a mere object of derision, a Victorian buffoon, a priggish figure of fun. And Mrs. Alving becomes little more than a smug straight-man or, rather, woman. Therefore, their relationship never makes any sense, end the first half of the play is nothing but an occasion for the ridicule of one character and the reticence of another. Margaret Tyzack is capable of .great emotional intensity, when the dramatic context is well defined (as in Robin Phillips' Richard HI or the BBC .3 production of Balzac's Cousin Bette). The trouble with her performance here (smug all the way through, then utterly crushed at the final revelation of Osvald's mental condition), where the dramatic context is poorly defined, is that it places too much weight on her ability to overwhelm us at the end. Oesfrite her considerable acting skills, she fails to do Pennell's best It is Nicholas Pennell, finally, who salvages something from the wreckage of Hasnain's production. This if his,finest performance to gate, even better than his first-rate Hamlet last year. Although generally a physically robust actor, he here controls and subdues his physical presence, and delivers a subtle and moving protrayal of the introspective, sickly, idealistic, and melancholy i psvald. i, •> About a third of the way into Act II, when the audience's laughter at Manders if finally petering out, the production hits an absolutely dead spot. Although the actors go on speaking, nothing is happening onstage. It becomes clear at this point that, apart from ridicule of Manders, nothing has been established no relationships, no momentum, no rhythm of action. Then Pennell begins to take over, and the play starts to move, laboriously at first, like a train starting from a dead stop. From this point on, the production gradually picks up momentum, and manages to be quite powerful at the end. But too much has been lost before Pennell can assert himself.

Aguirre, second in command, murdered the leader, declared himself "the Wrath of God, Emperor of El Dorado," and ted his band to death at the hands of the t ”, Peruvian Indians. ; •*•>' . *' " y if r* -» History interpreted > > -f. tn Like the work of any good historian, Herzog's tale not only recounts history but interprets it the film's second level; Arsuperbly played by Klaus Kinski, Aguirre is the purest kind of megalomaniac, who laughs at the quest for the Seven Cities of Gold because all that matters is power. His "empire" is a stifling swamp, his men are falling prey to disease and poison darts. Still, he notes that his rule falls over an area six timet larger than Spain the base for,"the most perfect dynasty the world has ever known." He instates hjs dynasty by marrying his dead 15-year-old daughter. Aguirre is mad, but he, alone — n; mm ' *>■ - PARACHUTE . of all hit party, has survived. Stunningly filmed on location in South America, Aguirre is of great sensual effect it communicates the lushness and stifling heat of the jungles. And, in a way that may only be possible for one who lived in Hitler's Germany, Herzog cooly examines the binding ties between power and madness, from Aguirre's meditations on his "dynasty" to his hypnotic demagoguery. Aguirre is an experience of mingled beauty and terror, peace and turmoil, and it marks Wemer Herzog as a major film talent , ~ — -V-.-rt. Marcel Game's Children of Paradise, in the three decades since it making, has been acknowledged as one of cinema's truly singular masterpieces, but the film is still seldom shown outside of the major cinema pities. The UUAB Film Committee, in what promises to be the J highlight of its summer season, will be showing Children as the final film of the summer, on Thursday and Friday, August 25 and 26, in the Squire (Norton) Conference Theater. With the elegance and simplicity of a child's dream, it details the fantasy love between Jean-Louis Barrault, as a mime, and the unforgettable Arletty, in two of the most legendary of film performances. Beyond any disagreement Children of Paradise is a classic; every film fan should avail themselves of this rare opportunity to see one of the film world's most wonderous dreams. -Bill Maraschiello c $ On SHottcutfete Buffalo 8 Guys and Gab!

Nevertheless, manages to remain fairly distinctive, maintaining a of musical sophistication not usually associated punk rock. seems that quite a few follow-up singles were released during the past few weeks. One is Greg "C'est La Vie" (Atlantic) from ELP's Works "C'est La Vie" is essentially the child of You Turn Me On," which was the child of From The Beginning," which itself was a distant offspring of "Lucky Man." As one progresses farther farther from the original, the quality becomes increasingly diluted; "C'est La Vie" is boring, with arrangement far too simple and monotonous for song's length. It will probably meet vyidi as much commercial success as its predecessor, "Fanfare For Common Man." lot on the heels of "Da boo Ron R6n" comes a ingle by Shaun Cassidy, "That's Rock 'N' Roll" ;amer/Curb).

Susie Allanson is definitely one of the latter, but her single, "Baby, Don't Keep Me Hangin' On" (Warner Bros.), is surprisingly good.

His instrumental feature "Easy Go" is a masterful demonstration of his powerful attack. Otis' agonized singing is welt featured on the slow title track and the minor key blues "Your Turn to Cry.” The closing tune 'Take A Look Behind" combines great lyrics, vocal and guitar. Seeing how many of Otis' tunes like "I Can't Quit You Baby," "Double Trouble," and "All Your Love" have been done by the likes of. Butterfield, May ail, Clapton and Led Zeppelin, this tune wilt also probably be popularized in a few years. 'Tore Up" and Albert King's "Natural Harry Nilsson.

This single could possibly pass for something by the Ronnettes. but the rough edges are tampered by a Newton-John style arrangement. For a little known artist who is probably a newcomer, this is a good record. Roy Buchanan is definitely no. newcomer to the music world. He has. however, gained only moderate recognition, but his audience may start to grow because of his new tingle, "Green Onions" (Atlantic). It is a remake of dte old Booker T and the MG's tune tailored for the seventies, featuring some very good organ and guitar work against the characteristic four chord backbone. Firefall has released a new single called "Just Remember I Love You" (Atlantic). Although it sounds like a combination of the Eagles and America, it is nice to listen to for its full harmonies and melody line. It certainly is a groat improvement over "You Are The Woman." Burton Cummings' latest release is a double sided single, "Timeless Love"/"Never Had A Lady Before" (Portrait). Of these two, "Never Had A Lady Before" will probably be the more successful. It is purely a rock song, on the order of "American Woman," but it fits in with the late seventies because of its disco beat, much like Aerosmith's "Walk This Way." Listeners who had given up on Cummings when he recorded the MOR "Stand Tall" will be pleasantly surprised by this one. Another rock single is Mr. Big's "Feel Like Calling Home" (Arista). Unfortunately, it is not even one tenth as successful as Cummings' effort. The refrain (which is also the title) is repeated, ad nauseam, the lead singer seems to be suffering from a terminal case of laryngitis and the arrangement is so uninteresting that it emphasizes, rather than conceals, all of the song’s defects. Clive Davis, who normally shpws good taste in choosing bands for his label, redfly made a mistake in signing Mr. Big. Minnie Riperton's new single, "Wouldn't Matter Where You Are" (Epic) is a pleasant bit of innocuous disco fluff. It is fine for light listening, but one gets the feeling that Riperton's vocal talents are being wasted by producer-arranger -Freddie Perren. Last, but not least, is a single by master songwriter Jimmy Webb, "If You See Me Getting Smaller I'm Leaving" (Atlantic). Webb possesses a surprisingly good voice, sounding a bit like James Taylor and the acoustic arrangements of George Martin complement it perfectly. The peculiar and strangely chilling, particularly a line from the refrain: "I've got a right to disappear." —Eugene Zielinski * , RECORDS the typical English murder mystery is dramatized as "Who Dqpe It?" proceeds. Nilsson, the frustrated director, is the persona of the murderer of twelve on a dark and stormy night. (Maybe Snoopy should be writing this essay.) He is insane and claims he did not do it. Who done it? Not all buy the alibi. Not prevalent on the Nilsson co-produced Knnillsson is the use of strings to create mood. A large number of songs are slow, orchestrated pieces, albeit insightful and whimsical. More than any album, Knillsson, is Nilsson's personal invention. Not Harrison, Starr, Perry or Frampton add to the album; nothing suffers or is lost. The effect of the orchestral arrangement requires this only solo performance, lest overproduction detract from the when concept. Throughout, "Laughin' Man" the listener, if human, a groping fool on a hill, is told how to cope: “If trouble tries to trouble in And tries to shake its ratde in The laughin' man begins to grin And when the devil tries to creep Into his dreams and tries to sleep The laughin’ man a dream away A slack, a slack a day." By showing man's imperfections to all, by reacting to their sound, Nilsson wins. He says, "Bye folks; see you in lawful satiric dreams of morning wet dew."

It's chaotic semblance of stability lends itself to a format of flighty musical permutations, much along the Ijnes of that Crimson institution of techno-rock. Their previous message Relayer betrayed youthful enthusiasts as the result of Wakeman's iconoclash with other mainstay members; a split that prompted the importation of Refugee Patrick Nora* and his space whoosh delicacies. (The triple live set Yetsongs previously sent minor shock waves to rock epicenters when the tuned percussion of Bill Fruford was replaced by the reformed 0no-plasticity of Alan White.) £ But through it all. Yes survives. With their latest overdue release, we find Yes has altered its form once again; this time revealing a resurrected line-up from the days of the oceanic tales. With Wakemao once more, the group is Going For The One (and with their temporary membership don't discount the alarming propheticness of this tide). The introductory title song, "Going For The One" reintroduces the listener to the first chasing sounds of a group product in over two years, while the wares with Wakaman date back nearly four. Guitarist Steve Howe delimits on steel guitar as he strings along with the expressionist bass work of Chris Squire on this Anderson composition. Wakeman's moog meandering* are also extremely titfit, considerably more inspired than his previous solo storytelling. But for this selection, the attention is focused upon Jon Anderson's snap singing of his delightfully obscure lyrics. Much of the magic of Yes lies in the interpretation of their messages.

"Turn Of The Century" showcases an expansion of Howe's classical Themes, much like those exhibited on his solo jaunt. Beginnings. The lyrical power supplied by Anderson this time is somewhat more direct, telling the forgotten tale of artistic depression. The lengthy, introspective piece is entitled "Awaken" and comes across as a two-phase religious realization by Anderson and Howe, glancing bade with Close To The Edge attitude yet it totally avoids the same's dream-like stance.

Prodigal Sun �Militarism Guest Opinion of Buffalo Editor’s Note: The following it an open letter by the Peace Center, on the developing of Buffalo Naval Park, sent to City Court Judge Anthony LoRusso and other public officials. Judge LoRutso is Chairman of the Committee for the Naval and Serviceman‘s Park and Museum. Buffalo Dear Judge LoRusso. The Peace Center objects to the militarization of Buffalo which may result if current plans for the Naval Park are carried out. As you know from our previous conversations, we are cohcemcd that the Naval Park will have the effect (whether intended or not) of glorifying war and weapons of war; this, we believe is entirely inappropriate especially in an age of thermonuclear weapons where the next world war could devastate the entire planet. Right now, in the nuclear arsenals of the superpowers there is literally the equivalent explosive power of tons of TNT for every man, woman, and child on the face of the earth. Our strategic missile force alone has as much destructive power as 150,000 Hiroshima atomic bombs, or nearly 1000 World War Us (based on the -explosive power used against the Germans and the Japanese in WWII). As the arms race continues, these weapons hold us all hostage. The future of the human race is itself in question. To paraphrase Albert Einstein, we need an entirely new way of thinking if we are to survive this nuclear age. The Naval Park may have the unfortunate effect of reinforcing old ways of thinking about the usefulness of war. In our view the Naval Park would be less objectionable if the Polaris missile (and other additional - - by Charles Haynie weapons) were not permitted on the site — and the museum memorialized the war dead by stressing the horrors of war and by explaining why it is imperative that another world war be avoided. (The Peace Center is interested in assisting in the design of such a display.) We too support economic development for the City of Buffalo. However, we question the desirability of the Naval Park, especially in the form that it seems to be taking. Can’t we make Buffalo ... Walter Simpson Peace Center Coordinator P.S. On August 9, the 32nd anniversary of the atomic bombing of Nagasaki, Japan, we intend to hold a vigil at the Naval Park site. The purpose of the vigil will be to remember the victims of WWW’s atomic bombs and to call attention fo the on-going arms race which threatens our lives and the lives ofour children. You and other members of the Naval Park Committee are invited to join us. We will be there from 1-2 p.m. Copies to Rep. Henry Nowak, Buffalo Mayoral candidates, Mayor Stanley Makowski, and the press.

I am writing in response to the letter appearing in The Spectrum (7/22/77) concerning counseling services at U.B. While not wishing to comment directly on the circumstances of Ms. Leggin’s apparent frustration with University Counseling Services, I would like to point out that Sunshine House’s service may well be of help to those experiencing the same plight as Ms. 4 Leggin. Sunshine House is aware that many counseling services in Buffalo have waiting lists, usually due to over-burdened case loads. Because of this. Sunshine - House offers immediate service, on a walK-in basis or via telephone. It may be that some individuals require longer-term counseling than Sunshine House can offer; however, in the case where they are placed on a waiting list, I am confident that Sunshine House can be of help in alleviating much of the emotional stress during that waiting period. We may also be in a position to refer such an individual to a counseling service without a waiting period. I hope you may be in the position to draw this service to the attention of your readers. Andrew J. O’Brien , Project Head Students worthy of help To the Editor. The Spectrum, of Friday, July 22, printed a letter to the Editor which pointed out some real problems the University Counseling Service is experiencing as well as the effect on our ability to provide service to students. We are shorthanded due to budget cuts and it has become increasingly more difficult to see students as promptly as we have in the past. Beyond this, every effort is made to provide some form of relevant service to students, including the use of our “Drop-In” facility at 67S Harriman Library where students can and do receive counseling, sometimes as a temporary measure while waiting for assignment to a counselor, and sometimes as the student’s preferred mode of receiving help. “ on those campuses. 4 But it wasn’t until the four were murdered at Kent State in the late Spring of 1970, that the nation rose up in honor at what had bear taking place all along. I remember being here at this Unirererty which I thought had spent itself out wife *j>roknged * ' ,. - Let the sun shine To the Editor: A week ago I stood atop a hill on the campus ofKent State Uniyeriity in Ohio, on the some spot where Ohio National only their own Guardsmen no newspaper articles for them understanding of crowd of students protesting the Indochinese War. That was in 1970. As I stood there seven years later,* die feeling was still overwhelming. I shuddered. I remained transfixed; I felt I couldn’t move from that spot. I didn’t want to talk to any of the others of the small group from Buffalo who came to Kent State to join the "May 4th Coalition" in trying to preserve this historic site, the University’s best possible public relations, by presenting new far is Peter Davies, The Truth About Kent State, which features photographs that put the lie to the dams of Guardsmen that they were in mortal danger. It has upset me a great deal to re-read these books and once again search these photographs for the truth. I would tike to believe that the Guard fired in self-defense. For if they didn’t fire in self-defense, (which is what the FBI report says) then I am in mortal danger and so are all students, protestors and strikers or anyone else who wants to demonstrate in public their opposition to war, racism, sexism, class oppression or anything else they do not like. I thought I had become immune to these feelings of deep resentment, anger, fear, almost terror, that come over me when I plunge once again into the records of events like the Kent State killings. I was stuck with horror, back in the early 1960’s, when one by one Civil Rights workers were killed on the South’s dusty back roads trying to encourage black sharecroppers to register to vote. In 1963, black children were bombed to death while in Sundajr School. A year later, while 1 was wandering the back roads in the Mississippi Delta, three of our fellow civil rights workers, Goodman, Chaney and Schwemer, were murdered by a conspiring mob which included the police. In fact, scores of people were murdered all across the South. Later on, members of the Black Panther Party were systematically murdered by police plots. What happened at Kent State happened repeatedly at Southern Black Colleges in the late 1960’s; massacre after massacre of protestors - attractive without selling people on war as a means of resolving international disputes? Can’t we fascinate tourists with non-violent, ecologically sound windmills instead of with a collection of instruments of mass destruction? Can’t we memorialize the victims of war in such a way as to help prevent future wars ... and future victims? We hope that you will share our letter with the members of your committee. Please inform us about when the Naval Park Committee meets and who we should contact concerning our ideas about the design and purpose of the museum. profiles by Helen Swede £4 Publicity Chairperson Coordinator, Tolttoy Cottage (F) All students are worthy of help; we sec many different students with all kinds of problems, so much so, that approximately twenty-five percent of all students make use of the University Counseling Service in the course of their academic careers. 1 cite this figure to encourage these people to seek counseling who would otherwise decline getting help with a problem for fear of social stigma. For the student who, unfortunately had to wait an untypically long time for an intake, my apologies for the delay. However, the use of the “Drop-In” Center is not based on a catch-as-catch can basis and counselors are available on an ongoing basis there despite staff cutbacks or vacations. ' massed ih £ven broader protest after the Cambodia invasion and Kent State murders in May 1970. We marched put into Main Street, some 3-4000 from U.B., the police clearing the streets of traffic and not even presuming to interfere. We were joined by large numbers of students from Canisius College (would you believe) and MadeiUe College, Buffalo State, and other campuses. We marched down Main Street, protesting the killings at Kent State, the Cambodian invasion, and the war in general, down to Niagara Squire where some 6000 or more students and others assembled. It showed me that people were not willing to allow the forces of the Government to use murder to put down legal protests. I believe today that the post-Kent protests which involved approximately one half of aD the campuses in America, and over a half million students from put on the streets, had a significant affect on the authoritarian ambitions of the Nixon Administration. I urge anyone reading this to take some time and regd the reports, the books, the accounts of what appears to me to have been a conspiracy to murder at Kent State back in 1970 by Company G of the Ohio Guard. See for yourselves. And recognize the implications for yourselves: if you are a working person, and someday may go out on Strike, must you, too, fear being diot down dead on the streets by angry Guardsmen as has happened in the past American history at Haymarket Square, 1886, Holestead Strike, and so on? If you are black, and may protest racist violence, must you too expect to be shot dead, as has happened to so many Mack people in our terror ridden history? If you are opposed to the construction of nuclear energy plants, or opposed to the various plots and schemes of the wealthy and powerful to make money at the egpcpse of the environment, might you, too, be shot dead in the streets, as is now beginning to happen? If you are female and may someday take to the streets to protest sexism by sexist judges as is going on today in Madison or Los Angeles, might you too be pierced by a bullet of the National Guard or Police? If you And yourself described above, or can see yourself taking to the streets to protest something, and wish to prevent your possible execution by the death squads of the powerful in this country, then you might be compelled in self-defense, as I have been, to give support to those at Kent State today who are reminding us once again of the injustices that took place there seven years ago injustices that have yet to be- remedied.

The Spectrum Page thirteen . �W 3ft > ..>« - •*$* ■■ - ■—■■' — % ' x *f~ O'-iWW ¥ Guest Opinioil by R. Nagarajan President, GSA Through its front page article and an editorial concerning Sub Board, The Spectrum (July 29, 1977) has created the impression that (1) the problem stems flrom the fact that SA allocates more than 90% of Sub Board’s funds while receiving only five of the 12 votes in Sub Board's Board of Directors and, (2) the situation is made more acute by the reduction in allocations from the five other participating student governments affecting the ability of Sub Board to organize student activities and provide student services as much as before. The views that are contained within the above statements are partial and do not lead to a full appreciation of the problem. It is my view that adequate factual information should be presented before the student body so that they can form their own views arid direct their student governments to act according to the same. The present constitution of Sub Board’s Board of Directors is based on the number of students represented by each of the student governments. This certainly is an anachronism if seen in the context of financial participation of the student governments. Allocations of Student Governments to Sub Board in $ 76-77 77-78 295,000 35,000 12J00 2.450 Lew. Med. 323,900 25,000 5,000 2,450 . A Dent. , However to my knowledge this has rarely affected the nature of decisions made by Sub Board concerning stud*rii activities and student services, SA has always had a practical mqority due to think is the main problem and 1 believe that this influences both directly and indirectly the nature of participatifbh by different student governments. If changes can be introduced in the functioning of the Sub Board to reduce significantly the administrative and disbursar fee expenditures and correspondingly increase the expenditure on student activities and student services, then all the student governments can be expected to make more adequate financial commitments. Of course there will always remain differences in this commitment between' different student governments because there are and there will be definite and significant variations in the use of Sub Board facilities by different student populations, as a recent survey confirms. Now i would like to explain the “reduction” in GSA’s contribution to Sub Board. Looking at GSA budgets of the last few years it becomes obvious that there is no significant change in the proportion of GSA’s total budget committed for Sub Board. It indicates that there is no altitudinal change in GSA this year towards Sub Board in spite of our dissatisfaction with its functioning particularly in .terms qf its efficiency in handling GSA accounts and the cost for 'the same in the form of the ever increasing disbursar fees (from $2000 in 74-75 to 16000hi 77-78X A major part of GSA’s budget (made up of a student activity‘fee of only $9.50 per semester) is directly returned to the students thro' their clubs, Sub Board facilities, GRAD Research Council, special activities and programs sponsored by GSA etc. The operating expenses and the secretarial expenses serve to provide the indirect services to graduate students at large, in terms of representing their interests at all levels of the University administration, keeping students Informed of issues of concern thru a variety of means, serving as a referral center fur any needs, etc. We are attempting to make more visible these indirect services to that graduate students can better appreciate the role of the GSA and the need for its existence and consequently begin to participate more actively in it making GSA a viable representative of their interests, To summarize. 1 see the fundamental problem to be the present status of Sub Board’s functioning and not the absence of control by SA over Sub Board. And GSA’s ‘’reduced” contribution reflects the continuity of GSA’s support to Sub Board and not an attHudinal change towards it. If at all anything has changed, it is only that GSA is no more a silent and indifferent spectator of Sub Board but a conscious and active participant within it. To deal with the problems reflected in the present uncertainty over Sub Board’s continued existence, the GSA Executive Committee has made the following recommendations; a) Sub Board retain its present form of Board of * * '•* ( 3H Paget fourteen The Spectrum Friday, 5 August 1977 . On the evening of J uly 12 1 became suddenly ill while attending a class in the Millard Fillmore Academic Center of the Ellicott Complex. I called the University Police and two officers were sent to me. Their arrival was unnecessarily delayed, however, by a locked interior door to which they did not have a key. It was several minutes until they found another way up to me. 1 was lucky this time; I had a dime with me and I happened to know the phone number of the University Police (1 did not actually become ill until after 1 had left the classroom and then I knew the quickest course of action was to call security myself.) Also, although it was difficult, I could breathe. If 1 had been worse that delay could have been fatal. All interior doors, in Ellicott as well as in other buildings, should have master, locks and all on-duty security officers should carry master keys with them. Every part of every building should be easily accessible to them at ajl times. Further, there ought to be several on-campus phones in each building. Such phones should not require a coin to make a call and the number of the campus police should be clearly posted by each. At the very least an alarm system should foe installed which would notify the Campus Police in case of an emergency. I demand that action be taken in this matter for the protection of everyone in the University community. Mary Mischler — inactive participation of the other student govenunehts, and if SA’s hands have remained tied in the past, it is so due to different reasons. In my opinion this question is not the main question as The Spectrum makes us believe. However. I see no rationale for an anachronism to continue. On the question of reduced financial commitments of student governments, only SA, GSA and MFCSA are the main contributors to Sub Board, and the latter two have made reductions in their contribution. What is significant to be noted is that the total allocation to Sub Board for ’77-78 is more than that of the. current year. Yet, die total money allocated in Sub Board’s budget proposals for student activities and student services has declined, while the administrative expenditure and the disbursar fees have steeply risen.

Dick spent a lot of time preparing programs for the fans at UB sporting events, and even more time preparing press brochures. In fact, in one such brochure a couple of years ago, Dick wrote the team’s preview and signed someone else’s name to it. And if you compare his programs and brochures to those of Canisius or Buffalo State, Dick’s are by far the best. His duties often necessitated that he work more than just nine-to-five daily. He usually attended all of Buffalo’s home hockey, basketball and baseball games, as well as wrestling and soccer. And many times he stayed home on Saturday nights to receive a call from one of Buffalo’s teams playing on the road, so he could relay the score to the local media. He also found time to coach in the Amherst Hockey Association, and his three sons, Bob, Tom and Jim all played hockey for him., i Dick was very well respected by his peers. Cy Kritzer, long-time CourierExpress sportswriter, described him as “a writer, equally fluent before a radio or TV mike; a researcher, statistician, archivist, counsellor, promoter and producer." Dan Hurley, former SID at Caniaus, also thought very highly of Dick. /‘Dick Baldwin is always ready to give, of his experience and his information to any one of us [other SID’s] in Western New York,” ,Hurlcy said. “I think if we took > vote among us it would be that Dick is No. 1 in our upstate area. I know I could not have got by our first football season without him.” If you attended many UB sporting events last year, you might have seen him walking along the 'Sidelines or sitting in the stands. He usually can be spotted with a pipe in his hand or by the little cap he wears (to cover a small bald spot). He has a dry sense of humor and a calm disposition that is until someone attacks UB. And he is one of the Bulls’ 'biggest fans. Dick’s new position represents a promotion for one that he asked for. I wish him well, and at him the same time, I can’t help feeling sorry for whoever his successor will be, because Dick Baldwin will be a tough act to follow. ROOM WANTED, September.

Rein Managing Editor The spector of the total reorganization of the student corporation, Sub Board, loomed large this week as Board members failed completely to hammer out a budget agreement at two meetings this week, i 1 Discussion at both meetings was tabled early in the procedures at the request of Student Association (SA) President Dennis Delia due to his assertion that it was impossible for SA to participate in the hearings until all student governments submit “letters of intent to participate financially in the operations of the corporation.” Most notably, Millard Fillmore College Student Association (MFCSA) was unable, due to internal problems, to submit a firm proposal. The SA Executive Committee, headed by Delia, felt the apparent reorganization of Sub Board to be both necessary and inevitable. The problem stems from the fact that SA allocates more than 90 percent of Sub Board’s funds, while receiving only five of twelve votes on Sub Board’s Board of Directors. Making the situation more acute is the reduction in allocations from the five other participating student governments. Severe eductions Last year. SA submitted $295,000 to Sub Board while this year it is preparing to spend $323,000. However, at the same time -the five other student governments are severely reducing their allotments to the corporation. The activities,” Delia said. “On the contrary, the whole idea is to improve them. This never would have come about if the Graduate Student Association (GSA) is cutting its contribution from 540,000 to $25,000 and MFCSA President Judi Jones claimed her government will cut its allocation from $13,141 to approximately SS000. Delia is particularly upset that undergraduate students at this University are spending- $323,000 of the total $354,000 to finance activities and programs in which hit students participate. “This is asking 14,000 students to provide activities and services for 27,000 students,” Delia said at Monday’s meeting. “1 just can’t accept that.” Cost reduction The reorganization of Sub Board would take place in the following manner. SA would simply refuse to fund its portion of the budget, effectively terminating the corporation and then reform Sub Board, becoming its. sole sponsor. In this manner, Delia claimed, SA could incorporate the management portion of Sub Board into its own operation, reducing that cost by an estimated $77,000. This would more than offset the loss of $31,000 from the five student governments. Sub Board, however, would continue to be the recognized dispersing agent of student governments. The “new” Sub Board would then become a student corporation tun for undergraduates. Ajf activities it funded would be made available only to undergraduate students. This would mean, for example, that graduate students would be prohibited from attending University Union Activities Board (UtlAB) functions. “We have absolutely no intention of endangering the other governments hadn’t reconsidered their positions.” No services Jones claimed that MFCSA, representing this University’s night students, reduced its allocation by more than 60 percent because “no services are being provided to us by Sub Board. The Bookstore is closed at 5 p.m.. Health Care at 4:30 p.m. and Admissions and Records (A&R) at 6:30 p.m. We can’t even get The Spectrum at night. By nighttime, services have been curtailed.” Jones explained that MFCSA didn’t withdraw its allotment altogether because she felt there existed a possibility that “we can make Sub Board work.” When asked, however, why, if MFCSA felt it could help make Sub Board work, it had so drastically reduced its allocation, Jones hedged, saying only that it planned to use the remaining money for other programs. Vice President for External Affaire of the GSA, Michael Sartisky, explained that his organization’s reasons for limiting its allocations were two-fold. “The reductions," he said, “are based on a decrease in our own revenues by 25 percent and also on an interpretation of the scfvices provided by Sub Board. GSA feels that services related to graduate students were neglected.” like Jones, Sartisky stated the money not given to Sub Board would be spent on other services “we fed will affect grads more in the long run.” . - _ �mmW xpress responds to commentary 9 TOW*. ■> Editor's note: The following is a response to a Commentary written by Special Features Editor Jay Rosen about the coverage of the proposed Buffalo hospital merger by the Courier-Express.

If it opens, merged or not, it will force more tax burdens on hard-pressed job providers (whose profits are taxed to support state facilities, such as UB). We think it makes sense for UB and its administration-related organs of communication to do all it can to get what it can from such eminent institutions as Buffalo General and Children’s Hospital. What is good for UB is good for The Spectrum, 1 suppose. And why hot? Your readership, constituted as it is, cannot be expected to care as much as the “townies” or the natives about what happens to pediatric health care in the central city, cannot be asked to worry about Main Street and Elmwood Avenue businessmen, or what happens to the families whose breadwinners are employed in the urban core at such hospitals as General, Deaconess, Lafayette General or Columbus... although your own social studies faculty will tell you that they will not travel far from their neighborhoods for new unskilled jobs. However, to say that we have no business demanding to know all that we can about ail the issues that surround this study, its organization, its biases, its financing, its focusing, and that we should not sound out every single element of the community for a viewpoint, and prominently display those viewpoints, and for you to say that we should not take a vigorous position insisting that public hearings be held into every facet of this thing, all of which you have said, is plain silly.

Kevin Seitz, assistant to Faculty Student Association (FSA) President ten Snyder, will be Moore’s successor as Acting Director of the Bookstore. Although Seitz foresees no major organizational changes, both he and Moore agreed the shift in management will open the possibility for needed fresh ideas. For Seitz, the upcoming year will necessarily be one of learning; a year during which he claimed he will try to maintain and improve the quality of service recently offered in the Bookstore. He felt his past experiences as night manager of the Squire Bookstore and as manager of the Gllicott Bookstore will serve him well. In the Mack Leaving behind what he believed to be an excellent staff, Moore felt assured the transition would continue smoothly. Beginning his tenure at a time when he said the store was “frankly disorganized” and operating in debt, Moore claimed his major accomplishments have been in delegating responsibility in such a way that the people working under him had a chance to prove their capabilities. He added they developed the store to the point where it is now operating in the black. Under Seitz’s leadership, Moore believed this trend will be maintained. The difficulties that have arisen in the past and may cause problems in the future, Moore said, are due ta the de-localized nature of the bookstore and a general lack of space. “We must plan from year to year, Seitz claimed, “since there is no permahent facility at Amherst and there are no plans for one as of yet.” This year, the Bookstore will operate out of Squire Hall, the Eliicott Complex, and a makeshift store in the basement of Baldy Hall, where the cafeteria used to be. In order to compensate for what Moore called “the poor physical layout of the store,” and the resulting hardships on students, plans have been made for increased night hours on Monday and Thursday. The store will also be open for four hours on Saturday with check cashing service. Selective enforcement? by Richard Chon Spectrum Staff Writer A case currently before the U.S. Supreme Court could conceivably change the course of professional educatton 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 dvU 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 Palo 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, stating that he was a victim of “reverse discrimination,” and that. the policy 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 in 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 Court, and its outcome will have a definite impact on many colleges and universities across tile nation, including this University. 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 Educators, reinforced this belief last week. “At this school, the competitiveness 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 discrimination. The admissions board was making an active effort to secure the best qualified students to go to medical school.” “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 per cent. 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? I 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. 1 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 desireable, 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 ' ,> NYCL V defends Inconclusive petitioner's rigfits Views on homosexuals polled by Nevan Baldwin Staff Writer Spectrum Buffalo City Court Judge H. Buswell Roberts has reserved decision the case of Rev. Kenneth Sherman, co-chairman of a local taxpayers’ in coalition, and Regional Director of the campus-based New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG). Sherman is charged with trespass for circulating a petition in the arcade area of East Buffalo’s Broadway Market, June 18. The petition called for abolition of the five councilman-at-large positions in the city of Buffalo. Sherman’s organization, “The Taxpayers” estimates a saving to the city of about $250,000 per year if the positions are abolished. According to Sherman, his arrest came after he was asked to leave the market by manager Andrew Meany. He refused to leave when Meany could not cite a rigid policy concerning political activity in the arcade. Meany, himself the son of a former councilman, had Sherman arrested at the same time other groups such as The Jehovahs Witnesses were soliciting support in the arcade area. Selective enforcement Earlier on the same day, Buffalo mayoral candidate Leslie G. Faschio and councilman-at-large Richard Okoniewski, whose job the petition seeks to eliminate, had been campaigning in the same area as Sherman’s arrest, shaking hands and filming campaign spots. The New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU), which has taken the defense of Sherman, feels his rights have been violated through up selective enforcement of the law. The NYCLU that Judge Roberts subpoena Foschio and Buffalo Mayor Stanley Makowski as witnesses Faschio, according to Sherman, “managed to avoid being served the subpoena” and did not testify at the trial. Makowski was served his subpoena and appeared in court. He acknowledged, under defense questioning, that the Broadway Market is a known center for political activity and has been for the past 20 years. Makowski admitted that he has campaigned there numerous times. Civil Liberties Union attorney David Gerald Jay, who is representing Sherman, stated that although a decision is still pending, he expects the outcome to be favorable. Sherman also predicts a favorable decision and, as a show of his confidence in justice, he has twice refused offers by Meany to drop charges and publicly apologize. The results of a recently released Gallup poll show that while a majority of the American public supports job rights for homosexuals, only half believe homosexual behavior should be legalized. uncertain. groups. As Michael Kagay, polling consultant to the New York Times noted, we as people can accept The abstract idea of equal rights for homosexuals, but we hesitate to legally sanction their behavior. Taken in June after voters in Dade County, Florida repealed an ordinance that guaranteed job rights to homosexuals, 1,513 adults responded to the survey. The issue of homosexual rights has gained national prominence since the Florida vote and as a result many homosexual rights groups are now vowing to political stronger undertake lobbying. Although 56 percent of the respondents to the Gallup poll expressed the belief that homosexuals should have equal job rights, few showed support for homosexuals holding positions in the clergy and elementary schools. The polls also reflected the dose relationship that exists between one’s religious beliefs and his her of perception or homosexuality. Of the 53 percent of the respondents WlvP expressed the belief that a person’s sexual preference would not hinder his religious development, nearly all also showed great support for the of homosexuals. At the same time, only a third of the 33 percent of public the who viewed as a religious homosexuality hindrance, supported equal job employment rights Despite 'Vmp rights. < i\i opinion. Regarding suggestive of the prevalent attitudes of Americans towards members of non-conformist opposition, AND WITH WYSUWPhD When asked whether homosexual relations between dr consenting adults should should not be legal, the survey found the public to be split, 43 percent voicing both approving and disapproving views. The remaining 14 percent offered no the proposal that homosexuals be allowed to adopt children, an overwhelming 77 percent disapproved of the idea while 14 percent agreed and 9 percent expressed no opinion. The answers of men and women varied little on any of the questions according to the survey. To some, the results are such however, the leaders of many rights groups homosexual throughout the country feel that most homosexuals are living more openly now than five or ten years ago. A few public officials in such cities as New York, San Francisco, Minneapolis and Atlanta have openly announced their homosexuality and while such, Mormon dominated states as Utah and Idaho remain violently anti-homosexual, inroads are being made. As the Gallup poll also found, 66 percent of those surveyed believed homosexuality to be more prevalent today than 2S years ago.

Ten days earlier, 194 people had been dragged off the hill and peacefully arrested after a 62 day protest against University plans to build a gymnasium annex on the grassy slope. Last Friday, police played a passive role, merely observing the hundreds of protestors who swarmed the site. No arrests were made. y; The 300-odd demonstrators amounted to somewhat fewer numbers than the May 4 Coalition, organizer of the event, had anticipated when it called for a nationwide rally last week. At a strategy meeting of the coalition the night before, people voluntarily arrested, symbolic of the four dead and nine wounded at Kent State in 1970, and two students slain at Jackson State University in Mississippi the same year. ■ - Court order violated Those plans remained intact up until the climactic moment of the four hour rally and march, when the chosen fifteen slipped under the wire barrier separating the crowd from the police, who numbered no more than a dozen. As the mass of protestors cheered and repeatedly chanted “Move the Gym!,” the 15 inside the fence raised their fists in triumphant defiance. The police watched. With the chanting growing louder and the crowd becoming impatient with the police inaction, two demonstrators ducked under the wire and began dancing in exhiliration. This was the go ahead for other protestors to cross the line, and within minutes, over half the throng paraded gleefully on the cordoned off site of the proposed gymnasium. Thus hundreds violated Judge Joseph Kainrad’s court order by illegally crossing the barrier. While scores of photographers clicked away, demonstration leaders vowed to return to the hill again and again .until the proposed site for the new gym is moved. After several spirited speeches the protest broke up, ending as it had begun, under a burning Ohio sun. risking the loss of a large number of supporters. The Coalition’s bail fund was severely depleted after bailing out almost 200 people the week before at $25 each. Crowds began gathering' around noon on Friday at The Commons, a large grassy field a few hundred yards from the scene of the controversial proposed gym site. In 1970, Kent State protestors were chased through The Commons by the National Guard before coming to a halt near Blanket Hill. Some of those same students spoke to the crowd later that day. The rally began around 12:30 with a resounding toll of a large bell and an inspired singing of a tune written by area folk singer John Barret about Kent State. Letters and telegrams of support for the May 4 Coalition, including one from author Studs Terkel and another from students at the University of Paris at Vincennes, were read to the crowd throughout the day. Allan Canfora, who was wounded on campus in 1970, delivered the initial speech, an emotional and effective oration recounting the events of seven years ago, including a chilling description of the 13 second barrage of shots. Banners and signs The fast-paced speeches rambled oii, interspersed with rhythmic chanting and clapping. Photographers and reporters populated the hill behind the speakers’ rostrum, while most of the crowd sat* cross-legged in front. Numerous signs and banners colored the scene, including a large one from a Buffalo contingent. Four police officers carefully watched the proceedings. At about 1:30, Bill Artill, Coalition organizer, took the mike to appeal for protestors willing to be arrested as part of the group of fifteen. Organizers planned to have as many states represented as possible in the fifteen, in order to symbolize nationwide support. Volunteers were instructed to meet behind the rostrum to be briefed about their arrests. At 2:45, following over two hours of speeches* the march around campus commenced. Demonstrators were asked to line up in rows of three behind several banners that were to head the procession. The crowd, which had begun to drift apart as the speeches wore on, seemed to collect itself again as the members of the Coalition marshalled people into lines. ■ Emotional speech ''’WiSSB&U Uke « ***, meeting the night before, organizers had agreed specifically on where to march through the campus, at which buildings to stop for speeches and on the arrest plans.

Demonstrators ringed the entire fenced off area and, with police and cameramen watching, shouted several choruses of “The People, United, Will Never Be Defeated!” - The march was then split into two groups. Separate speeches were made before the crowd merged in front of the old gymnasium for more harangues. The protest then proceeded to the Kent State University Police headquarters, where Mark Canfora delivered what many observers felt was the most moving speech of the afternoon. Canfora, brother of Alan Canfora, wounded in 1970,recalled the hate mail his family received after Alan was shot, how his father subsequently lost his job as town councilman and the recent emotional scene of ten days earlier, when his entire family stood proudly on the gym site and was arrested. He was awarded a stirring ovation, at which time the spirits of the crowd seemed to peak. The demonstration wound through the pastoral campus, pausing in front of the Administration building for a show of solidarity but not before an ugly shoving match between members of the Coalition and the dissident Spartacus Youth League. As a few demonstrators pushed and shouted at one another, others marched by, resuming the chant of ‘The People, United, Will Never Be Defeated!” * Painful significance As the crowd treked along the sidewalk of one of the major streets of Kent, passing motorists honked their horns in approval and received raised fists of appreciation from the visibly tired demonstrators. Most of the photographers and media people did not follow the demonstration on this back stretch. At 4:15, the assemblage filed past the small memorial to the slain students and up the now familiar Blanket H31, preparing itselffor the arrests that never came. A huge gathering of cameramen,, including Network TV film crews, greeted the demonstration as it ascended the tree shaded hill. Also waiting was a police photographer inside the fenced off gym site. Reportedly, his pictures could be used as basis for arrests at a later media exposure for the *date£ thereby eliminating v i Bullhorn speeches were delivered as emotions of the protestors swelled. The crowd lined the wire fence, straining the barrier, eyeing the police who casually smirked while staring straight ahead. A few of the plainclothes officers laughed and joked as the fifteen designees approached the fence. All fifteen wore bright red shirts bearing the ensignia: “Long live the Spirit of Kent and Jackson State.” Fourteen stepped briskly under die wire barrier, Stealing glances at the watching police.

He stepped cautiously through the labryinth of slumbering humans and canines, reaching the porch door just as the final chord of Blowin In the Wind was struck. The occupants of the porch were applauding themselves for finishing the song, as all people everywhere do. The air was heavy from a summer shower earlier, but the stars were out now, and the darkness was more a comfort than a threat. He realized that while he knew precisely where he wanted to go, he had no idea how to get there. As he took a left instead of a right down the tree-lined street he wondered about this feeling of ease he had, despite being in an unfamiliar town in Ohio and an unfamiliar time in his life. After taking more rights instead of lefts and vice versa, the campus of Kent State University loomed before him. Walking briskly through the hilly campus he could not help gazing in awe at buildings, trees and walkways that, on any other,campus, would have struck no peculiar notes in anyone. Getting slightly carried away, and not caring, he raced up and down staircases, nearly sprinting over streets and concrete paths, taking turns when he might have gone straight; following some path that was haphazardly, inevitably, pointing the way to a rendezvous with ’ Student Association (GSA) and MiHerd Fillmore College Student Association (MFCSA) helped force Delia's hand.

Much approved years before. Some say the two events had everything to do with one another, though he was never convinced they had. In any case, when the unearthing of Kent State shoveled its' way through the upper floor of Squire Hall, it was a strange and thd whisperings of freedom that initiated the trek to Ohio. This summer, for the first time, he had heard the drummin’. Then it was the beating of his heart that left him sleepless this July night, and the choruses of Dylan, and the anticipation that maybe, just maybe, a chapter or two of history would be penned before his eyes the next day. He Was not surprised then, to find himself tying his sneakers while being careful to not distrub those around him. And he was not surprised when he began thinking about the irony of the situation considering where he was, where he was about to go. impulse history. He could sense the nearness of the site, perhaps because of how far he’d walked, perhaps because of how far he’d traveled. He could not help imagining how many had done this before him, and how many might not after. It was then that he rounded a comer and was greeted by a hastily thrown up wire fence, and sign warning to come nb nearer. Knowing exactly where he was now, he hiked up the hill that was to become so familiar the next day. Upon reaching the crest, and peering down the grassy slope, a special, . almost frightening thrill cascaded through his being and trickled down to his hands which were cold and moist. Feeling finally on his own, he paced carefully down the incline, eyes fixed on the asphalt plain below him. In the cehtef of the parking lot lay a small island of grass, ringed in concrete. In the center of the island rested a stone with four names inscribed on it. The flowers around the tiny monument looked.strangely outof place. And as he stood by the memorial and looked up towards the hill where the bullets came from, The Answer, to him, was still blowin’ in the wind. «• �M-: BUI uy Din marascniono Ant Editor A review of Star Wars ? As such, superfluous, since everyone in the city has seen it, and some even went back the second day of its run. Commentaries on it, though are «s scarce as Oarth Vadar's positive qualities.

That’s an important distinction. Star Wars hasn't diddley-squat to do with any physical theories, relativistic theories, or .any theories more than that of having a good time at the movies.

Almost without exception, the movies that have tried have been failures, most honorable, but still failures. (Significantly, the only ones that worked were made outside of the major studios The Last Days of Man on Earth and A Boy and His Dog.) No, I didn't forget 2001: like everything else it's ever touched, Kubrick's creative ego, with its temperature of absolute zero, turned its subject into cold lifelessness.

This idea is not so much scientific as it is literary. The Atlanta Rhythm Section reminds of the power of bluesy rock 'n roll. We are all arrested, captured in the bluesy short story.

When Emerson, Lake and Palmer took the stage Sunday evening in Toronto, it was like 1974 all over their extended absenteeism becoming the mare — detached pages from a book unseen. The 70-piece orchestral fantasy had ended in a series of Midwestern mishaps and with it went the reason for financial group's three-year seclusion, the the collaboration and musical introspection by-product album Works. What started out as the most extravagant rock stage show ever quickly metabolized into the modest supertrio and a format that bore shocking resemblance to the pre- Brain Salad Surgery days. But modesty is only relative and once one was able to see beyond the notion of the orchestra, one realized that the exacting fusion prowess of Emerson. Lake and Palmer still exists. - Welcome back, my friends, to the show that never ends. For sure. Despite the weak sales success of Works and their disastrous attempt to perform it live, Emerson, Lake and Palmer continue on their North American tour like the true showmen that they are.

But without the orchestration, ELP were limited in performing their recent Works, from which only three selections were played, Instead, the trilogy introduced re-workings of the hits extending across their first four albums, Wayne Shorter has spanned three decades dimensionally (time, space, matter) via acoustical physics with deep seated musical honesty.

A Retrospective (Capitol) This is a charming two-album package of previously released material containing some of her obscure early recordings with the Stone Poneys and some newer, more repent songs. Those of you who are familiar with Ronstandt should know what to expect from this latest ■ release. For the uninitiated, this album serves as a good introduction to her music. Her music is pleasant, fluffy, and easily absorbed. Her voice is gentle on the ears and the liner photographs are pleasing to the eyes (there are enough photos to keep her male fans panting for two weeks). Which brings me to this: what percentage of her audience is female? The question is basically one of image who is she relating to? Does a major part of her appeal lie merely on the physical plane? And while there is nothing really wrong with that, could she have sold all those albums if nobody knew what she looked like? As an artist and a woman, she should be concerned with communicating with both sexes and to do that she has to offer us more than cheesecake and pleasant harmonics. She must relate not only to men, but to her sisters as well. Only after accomplishing this can she transcend that level of fluff and make her music really worth listening-to and buying. I would like to add, however, that if anybody is to blame, the fault probably lies in the recording industry, notorious for interfering in the artist's creative process and also for the mangling of many souls. The album too smells of greedy businessmen. The whole package looks as if it was made to sell, sell, sell., Still, her music is enjoyable and she is backed by talented musicians.

On one plane the music is palatable of taste and really nice. On the other, and broader, plane there is something very wrong with this album. Going by the impecably high standards that the Coloristic Grandmaster has set for himself over the years, McCoy may question himself here. He ploys ballads arid interprets them (and all he surveys) with a staggering visionary power only a Taylor, a Shaw, or a Ra can cope with. There is little, if any, of this special insight here. Trident (7W h$$ the beauty (wj»ichprd, celeste, and above an, McCoy's ever-heightening virtuousity. On this LP (Supertrios ? Even the title is out of perspective.), he slows down comparatively and limits his vast pianistics to hovering at themes; breaking out, at the most, pn the second set (esp. "Lush Life" and "Consensus") with the fine flamenco basswork of Eddie Gomez (This is another point: Bill Evans did let Eddie work. How about more of McCoy's group. Milestone?

Tony Williams is the Standout on set one while Ron Carter hides behind McCoy's bass lines. 'The Greeting" seems to give an impression of a Joe Ford flute interpretation there (i.e. 'Theme for Nana," Focal Point, or Indo-Serenade) in the future. I hope so, and I hope for the group and McCoy to be on upstreet for the upcoming African voices and horns LP.

This record is a must for any Blues fan who's Moody and upset that as a band they don't exist any longer. teenage licks The Stranglers, IV Rattus Norvegicus (UA Import) Vile, obnoxious, woman-haters, snots, and general all around unpretty boys. The Stranglers are a strange breed of wild boys heralding an age of asexual psychotic drone. With a scaly approach much like the early Doors, the Stranglers are this kid's favorite group, why, easy, they show us what it's like out there in the world of real robots. Swear ta God, the first time ya hear "Sometimes" with the classic lines, "Sometimes I feel so mean/Sometimes I feel so mean/Sometimes you look too clean" you'll eat your pot canary; this song simply evokes visions of loose and desperate destruction. "Hanging Around" compares to anything done by the Animals: with Hilton Valentine: and for those whosq ilk leans towards Beefheartian language grins there's, "Goodbye Toulouse" and "Peaches." So far out of the miasma of selflabeled Engloid punk bands, the Stranglers have that certain stance which makes 'em as refreshing as a kick in the prostrate. - - The Saints, I'm Stranded (EMI Import) t Another entourage of attempted punkoids whose homage is paid to that icon of nastitude, Iggy Stooge. The Saints are a loose knit outfit who play a gilded sort of white noise guitar with Memento Mori vocals. They play a shapeless music with no idols and seem to be yet another advertisement for chaos and acoustic oblivion. The stance punk. “Demolition Girl" and is classic modem classic "No Time" are gorgonizing in their simplistic stunability, "Night in Venice" Injures as quickly as it desicates. Put as succintly as possible, if the Stooges' "Raw Power" hadn't been made, these guys wouldn't exist. slumberous Live set has as much excitability as cornholing a dead dog. On top of the can you imagine a fourteen minute plus version of the Doors "Roadhouse Blues." 'Mon guys, gimmie a break. A pavid peccadillo for the sake of pure pelf, which makes as much sense as this double album does. Oklahoma (Capitol) The only reason this is included here is because it’s produced not only by Mark Lindsay from Paul Revere and the Raiders fame, but also by Melcher and if ya don't know who he is it don't matter. This group looks good, ya know Ultra Brite sex appeal aka man-wise, and they remind me of the first Allman Bros, album as far as sound goes, though they're not as well produced. It seems Lindsay and Melcher wanted a Beach Boys cum Raiders cum Allmans' sound and that just makes things too damn confusing. The dual guitar work of Steve Crossley and Don Juntunen is occasionally inspired and the guitar breaks on "Ain't it Sad" are just plain intriguing. Meeting this group for the first time is like walking into Ingrid Bergman for the first time, interest, excitement and... If you're the kind that likes homespun lyrics about deserting women and too much booze with a soothing air of suburban sophistication thrown in for respectability then Oklahoma ought a make your drugs flow freer. — - Brownsville Station (Private Stock) After a long tour with Kiss whatta ya think this album sounds like. Vup, Cub Koda and Co. are now playing Kiss songs as they think. Kiss should sound. It's too bad about these rock rejectamentas, they could've been good, but. they're just too blatantly ecletic for their own good. "Lover" might hit the airwaves and "Hot Spit" is a great title that never reaches any kind of fruition, and the "The Martian Boogie" is nothing less than embarassing. My little 12 yr. old coursin laughed in my face when I asked if he wanted the new Brownsville Station album and that's a criticism that can't be taken lightly. Status Quo, Live (Capitol) These subterrestrial limeoid rockers are as good ar argument for xenophobic snuffout rituals as anything that's come down the pipeline in a long while. They even give boogie a bad name which ain't that easy to do, no not too DU as in 'Nam whores, to do as in ... nevermind. This The Moody Blues, Caught Live +5 (London) Vertiginous mellotron viscidity circa 1969. The Moody Blues are important, maybe not because of their musical abilities, which are suspect to say the least, but because they were the first of the telesthetic supraliminals they've a place in the history of things. Starting out as a pop/punk band with the likes of "Go Now" and "I Go Crazy" both from the first album which featured the talents of Denny Lame: as a matter of fact after that first album the band went into a Sargasso Sea of yawn, split up. went on retreat and came back with the litres of Justin Hayward etc. and the full scale symphony orchestra, something no band had aver tried before. It was an instant success and on //» Search of a Lost Chord they even shunned the extraneous help of an orchestra and played thirty-three instruments by themselves. One of the first electronically contrived bands ever, it was interesting to see how they could carry over their complicated studio recordings onto the stage. It would've been easy to hire a complete orchestra to hit the road with but that would've put them into bankruptcy. Instead they had the fortitude to hit the road with their trusty mellotron and attempt to maintain the image of the records. Caught Live +5 is an example of their problems. The album is fraught with Roy Buchanan, Loading Zone (Atlantic) A friend of mine used to hang around with Roy in the old days and he used to tell great Roy Buchanan stories. My" favorite was the one where Roy and my friend were out getting shitfaced drunk one night and while driving Roy home he decides it's time to have a vision, a religious vision. My friend always said imagine sitting in the back seat of a car with this incredibly talented guitarist and he starts seeing Christ coming over the dashboard. And Va know most of the truely genius guitar-players of the decade have all been visionaries. Hendrix was enthralled with planet love, Clapton was silent, Townsend wrote Tommy which is nothing more than an ultra modern retelling of the Christ story, etc. and the legendary Lonnie Mack got so far into religion he gave up the entirebusiness of music for quite some time. Buchanan has been an enigma for awhile now, everybody acknowledges his absolute mastery of the Fender guitar but nobody's really cared for any of his records. Well, this latest Loading Zone should put everyone's worries to rest. Produced by Stanley Clarke, with the likes of Steve Crooper and Duck Dunn from the old Booker T. and the MG's, Roy is forced to glissade his butt off, and this is seen in an absorbing version of the old MG's hit, "Green Onions." This version sounds even better with Roy and Cropper trading licks that are empyreal in their ability to create fantastic landscapes. This guitar Malmsey'll soothe even the most sceptical of listeners. A perfect example of true guitar autism. Elkie Brooks. Two Days Away (A&M) This lady was sexy when she was with Vinegar Joe, and many thought she was the one who was going too take over where Janis left off at far at pure rock sensuality goes. Unfortunately Vinegar Joe toured and since then Elkie't been wallowing around trying too find a suitable home for her visual at well at vocal talents. Well, in Two Days Away it seems A&M is finally pulling out all stops to gat this girl back out into world view. The album is produced by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller of early Atlantic records fame (specifically the Coasters) and sports the considerable talents of the inevitable Muscle Shoals entourage. As a matter of fact the lead cut it none other than the famous "Love Potion No. 9" originally done by the Clovers and originally produced by Leiber and Stoller. There are three songs on this record that qualify at excellent, "Honey. Can I Put On Your Clothes," "Pearl's a Singer" and "Mojo Hannah" which is my personal favorite. The rest of the record is inconsistent and none of the above ever attains the rockability of her Vinegar Joe days. Oh well, maybe someday, until then all us male members of the cast can drool over Elkie Brooks’ album covers just waiting for the day when the music equals the cover art. Editor's Note: The purpose of this column is to inform the reader of records that are rarely heard of and hard to get We feet, however, that these records are worth attention and even some appraisal. Miss Julie... —continued from page 11— did not support a conclusion so absolute as suicide. Troilus is left cursing. But, although opaque at the center, the play is not trivial. It prefigures much of the modern drama of Sartre, Genet, Beckett, Pinter, and others. It seems to me that a director should develop those aspects of the play which remain compelling to us. And, although it is all right to present the dialogue in the rhythms of Pinter, the structure of the whole needs the sense of entrapment of Sartre's No Exit (relevant to Miss Julie in that; all the action is confined to one room; there is constant talk impossibility about the of escape; there is even the famous quotation from Sartre, so descriptive of Miss Julie, the in reprinted Stratford program: "Hell is other people"). If it were clear to the audience from the start that, for all their planning, Jean and Julie were never going to be able to leave the marior (nor, for the purposes of Prodigal Sun the play, this room), then the doomed before it begins, that action would take on a new there is no place to which they dimension, and Julie's suicide can escape.

There's somebody behind it because of the play's appearance a hand moving, it and of clarity and order. The director to some extent, .fight must, something else moving the hand." The presence of that "something against (or, at least, work around) the Count, the entirety of the play's seemingly greatest else" virtues.

So where the boys begin to weaken, ... the musical union attempts to strengthen. Cissy Houston vocalizes some needed power for the rocking "Surrender" and thusly lays the groundwork for Peter Wolf's raspy garblings.

Now there are many avenues available to your friendly neighborhood rock musician this day and age. If a group wants to rock straight out, profound lyrics are inconsequential; that again is only if the power is supplied. What's happening on Monkey Island is a poor compromise of undernourished music and trite storytelling.

Also, as indicated by the liner notes, many of the earlier choices had some original profound impact on her musical career. From her first recording the 1961 release A Maid of Constant Sorrow. Collins chose "Pretty Saro." The autobiographical liner notes (more on those later) explain how this was the actual steppings tone from the extensive and valuable classical training that Collins experienced with the great Antonia Brico to her role as the madonna figure of folk. "I had fallen in love with folk miusic." It Is a fitting way for Judy to describe her personal reasoning behind the move away from a promising future as a concert pianist. From Golden Apples of the Sun, the traditional trend continues with "Bonnie Ship the Diamond," and the tide cut. which is a musical adaptation by Collins of a Yeats poem.

The other time was the short period of time immediately following Marley's coup within the Waiters., Burnin' and Catch A Fire were new; not only that, they were also rather exotic. The reggae beat was mysteriously sinous; it had a molton, heat-inspired combustion. It was sweltering, inside-pounding beat, almost tribal in its effect. Jah was the mysterious African emporer-god, and the Jamaican government was a political hotbed. Tourists were advised not to enter the hills. So Marley slipped out of .. them. Only to flee to another set of hills, you realize. When - . Marley and the Wailers play at the Roxy, in the valley of the Hollywood Hills, you can be assured that every one from Sarah Dylan to Don Henley to Linda Ronstadt to the Section will be there to see it. So, big deal. And that's exactly it. Where the Waiter's reggae used to be a genuinely unique brand of music, this one has gone completely Hollywood. Everyone knows about the Jews' historical flight to Israel, widely publicized due to the work of the {ilm industry. That Marley has turned into what is supposedly a sacred sect of some sort into a full scale rock and roll show, and in the process lost his perspective, is somewhat equatable with those such as the Reverend Ike. The cuts on the album are like a primer for children attending afternoon lessons in Rasta. The cover is like a ten chapter index. Well, where is the index to the pictures? Listen to chapters three, four and five: Guiltiness, The Heathen and Exodus. At the end of side two is a medley entitled "One Love/People Get Ready." An apocalyptic vision, indeed. And it can ell be yours now, these sacred songs of the seventies, for only $5.98! Marley is the world's best known conscientious objector in the case of marijuana in the world. A Jot of men who declared that excuse a few years back were not granted the desired results. If this album is a slate of Marley's reasons why we should deal with this album and gold-plated set of prophesies, then permission for making exciting music will be denied.

The summer had had a crippling effect on our volunteer population due to the large numbers of students that leave Buffalo for the summer. We need volunteers now more than ever in many of the seven areas bn which CAC focuses. The basic concept of CAC is that students must be given a chance to expand their classroom experiences through action and service. Our rationale is that CAC must not be isolated fronr the Buffalo community, but become part of it. The needs of this particular community are great and we place volunteers in seven project areas: Health Care, Drug and Youth, Senior Citizens, Social Actiop, Day Care, Education, and Legal Welfare. The area of Health Care is the largest and perhaps most diverse area of CAC, involving approximately 20 projects. The summer is an especially difficult time for the Health Care area because many of the Volunteers in a particular program leave and this often causes the shut down of the project. This area is somewhat unique to CAC. The problems handled, working with retarded, autistic, or emotionally distrubed individuals are not easily visible to the public eye. More often than not the public shies away from these people hoping they really do not exist. These problems do not disappear and CAC tries to do something for these people.

Arguments over space allocations in recently opened Talbert Hall have increased the frustration caused by the shift to generally smaller offices in the new building The situation is so severe that some of the groups are claiming they are unable to function in their new offices. The split between campuses is playing havoc with communication lines within the organizations and disrupting day-to-day operations. The Millard Fillmore College Student Association (MPCSA) is the least satisfied with its space. The rift between MFCSA and the student corporation, Sub-Board I Inc. (which seems the most satisfied) is becoming so wide that the MFCSA is now refusing to fund Sub-Board, according to Sub-Bdard Treasurer Dennis Black. The corporation receives its from six student funding governments, MFCSA, being the largest contributor, second • to conferences. GSA President Raroanthan Nagarajan said his organization was under the impression they were moving July 11-13. The movers came unannounced on July 8. “It was fortunate we had packed everything already,” he observed. Nagarajan felt GSA’s space problem was two-fold. First, he said there is not enough student space at Amherst in general. Second, he felt that GSA did not receive an equitable portion of the footage available when the five groups sat down to hammer out an allocation agreement. Student role minimized He also complained about a lack of meeting rooms, adding that GSA’s space amounts to less than its old offices in Squire, were which themselves inadequate. “Even to preserve what we’re doing now, we don't have enough room, and we had plans to do much more concrete plans,” Nagarajan lamented. “The problem is not just one of space, it is much deeper than that. It is giving a particular character to the nature of student - ;aasrt*J8tf«~Si character is minimize the role to Groups left behind students play in the policies of the Besides the above two groups, University” the others that have moved are Nagarajan felt that the new the Student location in Talbert will tend to Undergraduate Association (SA), the Graduate remove the GSA government from Student Association (GSA) and the students it represents. “The the University Union Activities numbers of students that come to Board (UUAB). All are unhappy us with problems will be much with their space in Talbert to less. That is a great disadvantage," some degree. he said. There is no room in Talbert or anywhere on the Amherst campus Attacking each other for the student organizations left Dennis Black said Sub-Board’s behind in Squire Hall. The future move went smoothly “because we of these groups remains very were so well planned” but much in doubt the School of nonetheless foresaw -great Dentistry will eventually take over problems in functioning out of their sapce.

There is no, way we can function.” Last Tuesday, over a week after the moving began, desks and file cabinets filled the hall outside SA’s offices. There is simply no room for the fixtures inside. Lalonde was hopeful of working something out with Sub-Board in order to obtain more space. No protest “Conditions in general are going to be cramped,” he said. ‘There is going to be serious problems with communication.” He also felt students will be less tempted to “drop by” offices of their government a fear that is shared by Black who commented that “the only people that are going to get here are people that are desperate.” Black also felt that SA “obviously was not prepared to move.” When asked if his organization Can’t travel Soviet teachers here restricted by Michael Terpln Spectrum The 37 Soviet teachers living in the EUicott Complex this summer are apparently unaware of restrictions being placed on them by the government. Not their’s, ours. Soviet citizens traveling in the U-S. are under the same restrictions as Americans traveling in the U.S.S.R., said Stephen C. Dunnett, Director of the Intensive English Language Institute (IEL1) at this University. There is a 25-mile radius within which the Soviets must stay during their time here, Dunnett said. Although this is a “relaxed program,” he noted, all motion of the teachers outside the limit has to be reported directly to the U.S. State Department. These restrictions are placed on all Soyiet citizens in the United States, Dunnett said. In addition, certain areas such as San Diego and the entire state of Texas are off limits, he stated. There are currently three major groups of Soviet citizens residing in the United States. They include the scholars in the Soviet Scholars’ Program, the teachers visiting this. University and the staff of the Soviet Embassy in Washington, x Not told ofrestriction*- ' " - The Soviet teachers have not been told of the restrictions, to make “the Soviets feel as free as we do,” Dunnett revealed. Valery Martynov, assistant to the Deputy Minister in charge of international relations in the Ministry of Higher and Secondary Specialized Education of the U.S.S.R., said in direct opposition to Dunnett that Soviet citizens in the two ongoing cultural exchanges are not restricted in ahy fashion by the U.S. State Department. The current teacher exchange here revolves around a set schedule and therefore does not leave much room for freedom of movement, although the teachers are free to visit anywhere in Buffalo, he said. Martynov travels with the teachers as an “observer” for his Ministry in Moscow, Dunnett said. The Soviet Scholars’ Program, involving about SO Soviet scholars dispersed across the country, places no restrictions on the movement of the scholars, Martynov said. “There is absolutely free travel for scholars,” he commented. “There are no restrictions from the State Department to visit colleagues.” No briefing sessions Martynov We knew it was coming. We just didn’t know when.” He explained that SA will have to undertake an extensive public relations campaign to inform students of the shift, Lalonde said SA would have liked to stay in Squire, but did not protest the shift to Talbert because they felt it was inevitable. “We could have sat down in our offices and refused to move, but what would have come out of it?” Lalonde commented. Staff Writer continued that the selection of the teachers was left the universities involved, without government He also said the teachers were given no advance preparation or briefing sessions before the trip. The 37 Americans sent to the Soviet Union were briefed on proper behavior before leaving, Dunnett said. He also said he expected the Soviets had comparable sessions in the U.S.S.R. before arriving here, contrary to Martynov’s claim. The University of Buffalo was chosen over 61 other schools to host the exchange this year. The teachers have been here since June 20 and depart from Buffalo August 12. The group is comprised of five men and 32 Women. The purpose of their stay here is “to improve speech habits, compare teaching methods and get acquainted with the American totally up to intervention. on pa«a 10— - ~ - •; - ■ Remember Kent State? Today, a rally is being held at the Commons there to protest the construction of a gym annex on the site of the killings of four students and the wounding of nine others in May, 1970. A court decision is supposed to be reached today on whether to begin construction on the site, called Blanket Hill. According to one member of the May 4 Coalition, the organizers of the ongoing protests there, the decision “will probably be delayed until Monday,” when most of the demonstrators have gone home. “There may be bulldozers here soon,” he said. Student representatives and of several of the dead and wounded students met this week with Ohio congressmen and top Presidential aide Midge Constanza in parents Washington. Coalition members are planning the arrests of 13 students, symbolic and in memory of the four killed and nine wounded in 1970. Two National Guardsmen were recently arrested after they entered the cordoned off site and protested against the proposed construction, according to one Coalition member.

Reiss Managing Editor “Where Were You When the Lights Went Out?” was a popular movie in the ’60’s depicting life during the power failure that crippled the Atlantic Northeast in November, 1965. And where were most people? Well, in New York City, they were, for the most part helping others, aiding the injured, engaging in frivolous and innocuous activities and generally participating in a game of friendly Survival. Most victims of the blackout have fond memories of the hours they spent in the dark, reacting with insouscience and gaiety. And where were they when power was curtailed last week? The great majority of City dwellers, who take unparalled pride in their ability to contend with the inordinate number of adversities that befall them each year, repeated their carefreee performance. Yet not everyone was having candellit parties and making babies. Thousands, mostly in the black and Hispanic sections of New York, spent the night and the following day pillaging local stores in the most devastating incidences of looting the City has seen, worse .than the riots following the Martin Luther King assassination. Summer fever People roamed the streets like soldiers overtaking a city in time of war. Groups of youths, often with their parents, smashed windows and pried steel grilles from their hinges in order to break into shops and collect their booty. In most areas where the looting occurred, the damage was complete; nothing remained. People stole all items that were not nailed down (plus some that were) and that which they could not remove was either destroyed or burned. Fires blazed in numbers six times above normal and false alarms tolled nearly 170fttimes. By the time the festivities were over, over 3500 partiers had been arrested and 100 police officers were saddled with injuries. “It’s like a fever struck them,” explained Frank Ross, a Bedford-Stuyvesant police officer. “They were out there with trucks, vans, trailers, everything that could roll.” A woman who lives in one of the attacked neighborhoods likened the looters to cockroaches, scurrying about from store to store, then dispersing when the police arrived. Police Sergeant Robert Murphy echoed the resident’s claims. “You grab four or five,” he related, “and a hundred take their place. We come to a scene and people who aren’t looting whistle to warn the others. All we can do is chase people away from a store, and they just run to the next block, to the next store.” Aftpark isfor people, art and justplain Tombs opened mmm The relatively small percentage of lawbreakers who were arrested ~ — Israel** - - • 875-4265 m <J*aUtCUttm £ Quck European Cuts for Guys and Gab! 688-9026 Maple Center 1400 Millersport Rage two Hie Spectrum Friday, 22 July 1977 . . 688-S67S - The Spectrum it publish*/ Monday Wednesday and Friday during the academic year and on Friday only during the summer by The Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc.

The answers to all three “quickies are, in order, Gerald Brownrout, Gerald Brownrout and Gerald Brownrout. If you correctly answered all three queries, Johnny Olsen is not here to tell what you’ve won, but consider yourself an expert on Amherst town politics as consolation. Controversial municipality Despite rumors to the contrary, Amherst is not the place they named after the campus. It is the second largest and fastest growing town in Western New York. Its 110,000 population is expected to double in 25 years. T he relative affluence of the town’s residents, the high percentage of independent voters, and the potential impact of the Amherst Campus, politically a “sleeping giant,” are combining to thrust the rapidly developing municipality into the local political spotlight. F.nter Gerald Brownrout. Since 1971 he has darted in and out of the Amherst political scene, refusing to follow party lines, taking risky stands on controversial issues, making enemies among political heavyweights and friends among his constituents. Although he detests the term, Brownrout very much fits the image of a “grassroots” politician. In a town gleaming with well manicured lawns and gardens, Gerald Brownrout has been seen “hitting the pavement” in each of his campaigns, goirig door to door, shaking hands, collecting signatures. Handles explosive issues “If someone doesn’t have a voice to speak from, I’ll support them,” Brownrout said in a lengthy interview with The Spectrum. This philanthropic approach has enticed him several times to handle political “time- bombs,” potentially explosive issues on which he has always taken . the people's side., In the early 1970’s, when environmental issues dominated the political scene, Brownrout opposed the expansion of a pollution-checking sewage treatment plant onto land that was slated to be a neighborhood park. He sided with the residents of the immediate who were unaware of the expansion when they purchased their homes. “Every organization in town was against these people,” Brownrout recalled. The councilman also opposed the building of an energy-saving rapid transit line through Amherst. He felt “the neighborhood would be split in two” by the line which was planned to connect the Main Street and Amherst Campuses. Brownrout observed in a moment of digression that, “if you look at the breakdown of any highway built through a city, it always runs through a black .... _ Rat Am-Ton Journal In 1971, at the urging of acquaintances, Brownrout first cast his line into Amherst political waters. Behind him lay two successful McDonald’s franchises, a seafood retailing firm, an international auto racing championship, and The AM-Ton Journal, a politically volatile village weekly, second in size only to The Village Voice, which he Protect my ass, The scenario grew more intriguing when Democratic Party members unofficially offered Brownrout the chance to run as the party’s candidate for supervisor. He declined, but wryly observed, “I find it very interesting that they would apparently ‘offer’ the. highest elected office in the town to an individual whom they did not support for election as one of the six councilmen.” “They said the only way to unify the party was for me to run as supervisor, but what they were thinking was ‘we’ll get rid of Brownrout and make him spend some money at the same time.” “1 figured they were going to sacrifice me, let me run and lose, and leave me high and dry.” Brownrout still intends to run for a third term on the town board. The Democratic party has pledged not to challenge his petitions or force a primary, but the councilman is suspicious of the gesture. He plans to meticulously collect the needed signatures on the assumption that their validity will be questioned by the published. In an overwhelmingly Republican town, Brownrout ran as a Democrat against a 22-year incumbent for a seat on the six-member town board. He lost, and the day after, began campaigning for the 1973 election. “As much as the name was known for McDonald’s and known for fish, it still wasn’t a ’known’ name,” be said in explaining the defeat. Brownrout switched from the Republican party <“my lawyer was a Republican, so I was,” he explains) to the Democrats after attending a political cocktail party in 1970. “All the old ‘hacks’ were on the Republican side,” he observed, “and all the young, energetic people were Democrats.” Shunned by Democrats By the fall of 1973, Brownrout had made enough of a nuisance of himself to be shunned by the Democratic party in its endorsements for town board seats. The party was frightened enough by this new kid on the political block to challenge his qualifying petitions and charge fraud. “They put out 30 people to scrutinize my petitions,” Brownrout said. ‘That’s one way they try to knock out independent candidates.” He survived the fight, which reached the State Supreme Court, and went on to deliver a knockout punch of his own by sweeping the Democratic primary, the first ever held, or needed, in Amherst. Lacking the Liberal Party endorsement, which usually accompanies the Democratic nod, Brownrout captured a seat on the town board that November. He became the first Democratic Councilman in the history of the town, but did little to ease the tensions between himself and his party, tensions that still exist. The party has challenged his petitions each year he has run for office. party. “I have to go on the premise that there will be a primary and a challenge (to his petitions). This is called Protect Your Ass. Everyone has told me to be P.Y.A very wary, even Republicans,” he said. - Supports Amherst control theory Thus the controversial councilman is seeking to extend a stormy political career in to what promises to be a new era in Amherst town politics. The drifting of this University to Amherst should alter the political demography of the town. Liberals and Democrats are expected to gain a solid foothole in what used to be a rock of conservative Republican strength. Brownrout recalls that when the new campus was being first proposed (in the midst of student disturbances here and across the nation), Amherst residents were “scared to death” of 25,000 students “invading” their town. a particular debate at 'which his that tall grassy hills surround the even talking about iron gates,” Brownrout recollected. “I got up and said ‘The next thing you’ll want is electrified barbed wire, and to tatoo all the students so we’ll immediately know if they are infiltrating 1 the community.” “The ultra-right wing mentality, which there is a lot of in this town, was supportive of sealing off the campus,” he He remembers opponent proposed campus. “He was Refused to quit In 1975, Brownrout declared early his intention to run for supervisor, the highest elected office in tqwn government. The Liberal party endorsement followed, but the councilman was defeated in the Democratic prithary. in characteristic Brownrout fashion, he refused to quit and clear the way for the Democratic candidate. “The Democratic party wanted me to take down my signs and pull out of the election,” Brownrout recollected, “but I felt I had an obligation to the Liberal party to run to the end.” The councilman drew 2400 votes in an election that was taken by Republican Jack Sharpe by a scant 220 tallies. “Had I screwed the Liberal Party and pulled out, the Democrats feel they would have won,” Brownrout observed. Needless to say, the events of the 1975 election widened the rift between the party and the maverick councilman. When endorsements for three town board seats were handed down this year, the Democratic Party ’ related. In commenting on the theory that the Amherst Campus was designed to prevent student riots, Brownrout flatly said, “That’s the truth. Believe me. That’s how the Campus was set up.” Brownrout had his own ideas on setting up the campus, including a wild idea about building the 80,000 seat Rich Stadium on Amherst Campus land. He related, “Big construction money was fighting me, saytng ‘Tell Brownrout to shut up he’s rocking the boat. So naturally, I increased the rocking.” Naturally. - unaffected HEAR THE BREEZE?

Page three �Advice for advisors EditPriol Cry wolf too late The Amherst Control Theory has begun to be applied. In fact, for the moment, but only for the moment one hopes, it seems to be working. Student officials of both the graduate and undergraduate Student Associations (SA). of Millard Fillmore College (MFC) and of Sub Board I. Inc. are encountering tremendous difficultues after having been relocated this past week to Talbert Hall on the Amherst Campus. The office space allocated to these vary important organizations by provision of The Campus Plan is pitifully small. The design of The Campus Plan emphasizes a strict decentralization of all student services, as well as of all academic facilities. That very process has squeezed the student governments into physical dimensions small enough to impede many functional accounting procedures and to effectively temporarily, one hopes, cut established lines of communication.. « Those directly involved in the ordained transfer have been very frank about their dissatisfaction and quick disillusion with the new headquarters. Sub Board treasurer Dennis Black said. "They couldn't have planned it any better if they wanted to split student organizations." SA Vice-President Andy Lalonde actually said. 'There is no way we can function." One week after the moving has begun, SA desks and filing cabinets still fill the halls outside their offices. We are tempted to say, "We told you so." Black and Lalonde. albeit their critical, even angry remarks, apparently still don't realize that they could have "cried wolf" before it was too late much earlier noise to the Ketter Administration might have ameliorated their cramped isolation. The structural layout of Tha CampusPlan has been available to the University public for quite some time. The Spectrum has seen it; assuredly, to have the student governments. Tha Spectrum was raising questions about the dislocation of student governments and service organizations, publicly and privately, in April. SA was too busy with the Lev Referendum (Leverendum) and the mere "changing of the guard" then to worry about some place in the distant future called / Talbert Hall. Showing active concern for a'future disaster does not necessarily entail breaking the windows of Hayes Hall in protest. Nor does it simply mean sitting in and refusing to move. Formal memos signed by officials of the governments involved in the then future move could have been sent to President Ketter. Service organizations now slated to move into buildings not yet constructed could have signed petitions against being forced to move. Meetings, at which contingency plans to avoid such functional impairing should have been insisted upon, could have been arranged with such administration officials as the Director of the Student Union. James Gruber, or Vice-President for Facilities end Planning. John Teller, or oven Ketter himself. All this could have transpired over the lest few months. We doubt it. Hopefully, all the governments and organizations already in Talbert Hall (as of last week! will send notices to be printed in The Spectrum in time for the next deadline, Tuesday, announcing their new addresses and phone numbers. Otherwise, they might be lost forever. Due to arguments and discrepancies in space allocation, Millard Fillmore College is threatening to withdraw from Sub Board its annual $20,000 input. This unprecedented move would have a devastating effect on student service organizations and on students themselves at this University and must be avoided by whatever reconciliation — possible. Sub Board now funds Health Care facilities, the Sexuality Clinic, UUAB, which brings music and films here. Group Legal Services, the Browsing Library and the Music Room, and various campus publications, including The Spectrum. The futures of many of these student services could be severely endangered if MFC were to withdraw from Sub Board. Additional expenses have already been levied on Sub Board as a result of the move. Couriers must now go back and forth from campus to campus to handle the banking prodecures between organizations still in Squire Hall and the Sub Board Banking Office in Talbert. These couriers will be very busy in the fall and their estimated cost for the entire year is somewhere around $4500. At the moment, this money is coming out of the Student Mandatory Fee. The costs of these couriers should be absorbed by the State University's Supplementary Budget, and should be taken off the backs of students, victims of a transition that came as no surprise.

But I realized that I’d have to bring up the placing of this huge Campus in Amherst instead of in downtown Buffalo and also how political the decision was, and how everyone is paying for it now excepting the people who never pay for things like this. It’s just not something I care to discuss, It’s just not. I was going to ask you something. I was going to aak you why The Blackout is such a big deal when so many people have been living in darkness for all these yars. But that is not the sort of thing we generally print in The Spectrum and besides you might say “Now what the Hell does that mean?” Yeah, and I was going to tell you what a change its going to be when Squire Hall is altered to accommodate the School of Dentistry. I was going to have you picture in your mind rows and rows of white-coated Dental students sitting in The Rat, drinking milk, sporting Mark Spitz mustaches and each owning rows and rows of nice white teeth. Then I was going to have you picture Jerry Rubin speaking to overflowing crowds in the Fillmore Room. I guess t sort of hoped you would sec the significance of a Student Union. What a crazy idea, huh? Needless to say, I’m not going to go through with it. I was going to try and tell you about this friend of mine. But this friend is such a unique person that acres and acres of newsprint might not be enough. 1 think you know what I mean! I saw her today at the I was going to tell you that while The Blizzard is long gone. The Snow Job continues. Alright, a show of hands. How many of you believe the focus of the University is shifting to Amherst? OK. How many of you believe it isn’t? Uh-huh. How many of you didn’t vote? Just as I thought. I was going to tell you that the notion that the University is in any sense “shifting” from Main & Bailey to The Turkey of The East is simply absurd. But then you might ask What’s so absurd about that? and I would be forced to tell you that the only real change is the dosing out of Ridge Lea and Bell Hall facilities and the opening of a few concrete nightmares out in The Wilderness. And I would have to tell you that every square foot of space at Main Street will be used next fall, as usual, so the old campus will be just as important as ever. And so the focus of this University will remain somewhere in between the two outposts. Perhaps The Turning Times on Minereport Highway would be appropriate. Of course, they would have trouble focusing on anything. So you see, I would have to tell you not to believe every heavy hype you hear out of Hayes Hall, and I’m not sure I want to go in to it. You know what else I was going to tell you but decided not to? I was going to tell you how much you owe to the students that attended this University during the tale 40V and early 70’s. Yeah, but then I*d have to go into the four course load, and the disarming of Security, and the elimination of Military research, the 11-month halt of construction on, the Amherst Campus until the unions were desegregated, the self-control of student fees and a host of other trivial tilings. So you can understand reception... �Shakespeare in The Park: Improvising on the classic play, Hamlet V . -• • •, ' by Bilt Maraschiello Arts Editor It would make an awfully perverse introduction to this rogue and peasant slave, but if you've ever wanted to see Hamlet done a la the Firesign Theatre instead of the Globe, head for "Shakespeare in Delaware Park." Be prepared, though, to see Hamlet parade through the audience selling peanuts and' balloons, King Claudius and his guards in business suits, and the death of Hamlet's father announced as a headline in the Buffalo Evening News. Is this what happened to our existential boy when those college punks got their mitts on him? Weil, yes and no': mis is actually a son of New York third-generation piece: Shakespeare impresario Joseph Papp's 60's “Naked" Hamlet, brought into the Buffalo of the 70's. And neither Papp's version nor that of Saul Elkin's troupe intends to be an adaptation of Hamlet, but rather a wild improvisation on it. Living theatre Most of the references to the age of Vietnam and Woodstock have been erased. But what reamins it what was, to theatre, the most important legacy of that era. What the Open, Living, and what-have-you Theatres did above all was bring a sense of pocking chanteuse. And the Ghost of Hamlet's unpredictability back into the theater; it gave us Father, played by Elkin in longjohns and a people who were more excited than any the art had cotton-candy fright wig, is Edwin Booth as W.CJ seen in years about what could be done with a stage.

Granted, Hamlet is as much coin-of-the-realm as any play is likely to be, but I still see the possibility of fostering an intolerance, in some quarters, of theatre done without the razzle-dazzle.

His voice retains that same asthmatic quality first heart on 'The Hurt" and 'the arrangement is too abrupt and graceless. In fact, this song sounds like an Elton John and Xiki Dee version of 'The Hurt." Another comeback attempt is that of Gilbert O'Sullivan. In contrast to his old material, "You Got Me Going" (MAM/Epic) is a very straightforward nek song. Pop-rock may be more accurate, and, surprisingly enough, it works very well, mainly because O'Sullivan has written a likeable melody that is able to propel itself effortlessly through the ,, Turnstiles but. so enjoyable mention nonetheless. "I've Loved These Days" displays a surprisingly restrained arrangement for an AM song: primarily Joel's voice and piano, occasionally accompanied by some strings and horns, It builds gradually, never reaching a well defined climax all of which adds to its subtlety and uniqueness. I've lost count of the times I listened to "I've Loved These Days." but each time I listen, it unceasingly captures my interest and attention. The other contender was "Barracuda" by Heart (on Portrait records). This is almost the antithesis of the preceding song, displaying as much grace and finesse as an enraged Canadian Grizzly. The lumbering guitar chords provide a perfect backdrop to the impassioned, dear vocals of Ann Wilson, There may be more energetic rock singles, but whatever "Barracuda" lacks in energy Is more than compensated for by sheer power. Two things kept "Barracuda" out of the Favorite category. One is the recording's sound quality, which rivals any ancient Hendrix tape for murkiness. The other is.the song's length. Although it is a minor defect, "Barracuda" could have been made a bit more interesting if some judicious editing were employed.

Page six The Spectrum Friday, 22 July 1977 . groove and the group Illusion, a lineup proceeding the classical rock Renaissance, displays its musical beauty, its haunting smoothness. After an absence. Illusion has returned. The way is perfection, something I need. The music of Illusion's Out Of The Mist is what I really am. Because I have just witnessed the mobs at the stadium-white, gray and ashen as they overdosed on an event with music only a sideshow attraction. The fair's affair was the •midway of drunken, doped people. Even so, in any way, people are enjoyable to an observer. Here I am, hushed in my room, for the time being thankfully forgotten by media types. Illusion's music soothes, envisioning a critic's Walden. Lead singer Jane Relf's voice provokes a placidity I haven't felt for weeks. More pristine perfect than Fleetwood Mac, less nervous than Stevie Nicks, but sensual in a separate way, Relf's voice is the excitement one feels the moment after a Cape Cod wave has crashed against the jagged, rocky shore. Jane Relf conjures all that is of nature with each note escaping her lips. No, escaping is too harsh a word. The notes flow forth, knowing they are leaving heaven, happy they are sharing sanguine feelings with the listener. Renaissance's present superb vocalist, Annie Halsam, tries too hard to please the listener with gymnastic vocals, needed to keep pace with each tune's arrangement And perhaps it is Illusion's instrumental arrangement that gives Jane Relf the opportunity to be her soft self. Whereas Renaissance's keyboards dominate the sound's intensity. Illusion's mainstay is a mode of classical folk-rock rather than rock, depending on the soft acoustic guitar of Jim McCarty, and the rhythm of bassist Louis Cennamo and drummer Eddie McNeil. The fine keyboard of John Hawken meshes well to form a complete band during "Out Of The Mist." McCarty's lyrics in "Face of Yesterday" are born life through -flelf's, vocals as if Mona Lisa painted Da Vinci: Lonely street eclipse the sun Until the sculptor hed begun To etch endmold e dream Which soon became a passing day A sight for God unseen A lace of Yesterday, Yes, out of the mist, Mona Lisa painted Da Vinci in the soft tone of love colors. Illusion is no dilemma of desert mirage. The oasis is real as in "Beautiful Country," a song only one from the practical British Isle imagination could begin to cogitate upon: Beautiful country your mountains are heaven Your discerning rivers are twisting away Beautiful Country you are of summer's whitekisses Only for winter we want you to say / will lay me down upon *Upon the soft and solid ground The summer wind rattles the windows knowing the truth as did Plato -Harold Goldberg simple arrangement.

The soloists are more than adequate, the orchestra is taut andwell .controMacL .and the chorus' performance is lively and inspired. All I can say is that this as a very obscure work of Franz Schubert and it may not appeal to the casual record buyer. Those familiar with the work who wish to own a copy of it will find that the presentation is well recorded, the orchestra and chorus are balanced well, and in general, this i$ a fine release. I have a few minor quibbles however. It seems that Nonesuch's engineers are guilty of fooling with the sound levels. I find such tampering with the performance, using electronic gimmickery and insensitive volume changes by an ignorant engineering staff, disgusting. Someone.should get the message to these engineers (and they are few and far between) to stop. It does no justice to the performers or to the composer. Otherwise, it is a very satisfactory job.

He also seems all of Stewart and playing Gouldman, it is Stewart's and McCartney-esque vocals that dominate the album. Even on the infrequent occasions where Gouldman does sing lead, he sounds so much like Stewart that the two are practically interchangeable. Nevertheless, the situation does work out quite well. Besides the deservedly popular "The Things We Do For Love," the album contains other gems, such as "Feel The Benefit," with its intricate guitar work, and the junior of "Honeymoon With B Troop." Also notable is the disco-infected "You've Got A Cold," which manages to blur the boundaries between a sickness and sex with lyrics like: "You've got a beauty, a bad ass, the mother of them all..." and "Ain't no use in fighting it/Get into bed and try to sweat it out..." As long as it is considered within a vacuum. Deceptive Bends is fine. Take it out of that vacuum for comparison with previous efforts, however, and it does not do so well. Assuming a sort of "we'll show them" attitude, Stewart and Gou.. eschewed a large amount of creativity oommerciatlty the type of commerciality geared more toward the United States than It it highly probable that Deceptive Bends will outsell all of lOcc's previous releases. The differences involve just about every aspect of the band's music:\the lyrics, the vocals, the arrangements and even the song structures themselves. The keyword has become simplicity, which has also become the keyword to mass-appeal. The lyrics, while clever, are not as witty as they could be. There are no images that compare with those from "Don't Hang Up" ("I stumbled from my stag night/To a never ending limousine."); gone also is the outrageous humor of "Head Room." Even 'The Things We Do For Love" cannot hold a candle to the eccentricity of its precursor, "I'm Not In jUk., Love." The lack of any complexity in structure is also fairly evident, particularly since it is augmented by far too few harmonies and some pared-down musical arrangements. In contrast, oh many of their earlier albums, lOcc was never content with a simple song structure. Instead, they would create dynamic, aural tapestries: their compositions frequently sounded -like two different songs expertly spliced together. Now, however, they have opted for a style as simple as that of the first lOcc album. i m But wallowing in the past is futile. Stewart and Gouldman are obviously happy with the commercial success of their album, while Godley and Creme are probably equally pleased with their gizmo music. Still, because of the breakup, somebody is ultimately going to lose; let's hope it isn't the audience. -Eugene Zielinski Alan Parsons Project I Robot (Arista) All must the know concept behind concept albums: the recordings seem to portray ideas brought to culture in ways other than in musical form. At times, music is the perfect genre to creatively re interpret fiction and non-fiction. But the mood must b4 right, or else the concept suffers as a tawdry pulp novel plot tine, repeated over and over again. over-production expert Parsons, Alan extraordinaire, has graced his listenership with the science fiction spectrum of progressive rock with Issac Asimov's / Robot. The thought behind the recording works well. Better in fact than Parson's previous effort Tales of Mystery and Imagination, which was, in effect, maudlin. / Robtot is science fiction put to music at its best. This is not to say the music is like space rock as it is not weird and has a pattern, distinct and listenable. The album is not over-produced if there are too many strings or vocals, the mode of sci-fi is appropriate. The words have been said before; the music has captured the feeling. In the premise, machine overcomes man. A simple twist of literary fate this, and all speculative minds become sanguine when the simple becomes intricate. So this is Alan Parsons' gift well received because The Project clearly spalls it out. For instance, / Robot's title song produces a rhythm line in via bass sequence in 7/4 time. As the beat builds through the song, one can see mechanical robots, made in the image of humans, taking over the world. Parsons makes you believe it could happen. On “Breakdown," Man is robot, the booming bass rises, becoming subordinate to the once controlling human vocals on the track. The vocals of Allan Clarke and Steve Harley sympathize with the psychology of, the matter. They understand the breakdown of a robot in human terms: through science fiction, this phenomenon is not a contradiction but a paradox: Where are all my friends who used to talk to me All they ever told me was good news People that I've never seen are kind to me Is it any wonder that I’m confused When / breakdown, when / breakdown. "The Voice" shows the robots skulking, lurking, waiting for the time to free themselves from slavery to their human counterparts. The strings introduce the robots chasing humans but it is all a pian in their minds. They chase anyway; they need more than pit to keep their conscious memory banks functioning: dare I say living? Living robots are a rub that might seem trite to some; again, the idea is not complex: still it should serve as a warning, not to yield paranoia, but to remind of man's delicately balanced dominance of the planet. During the song "Day After Day/' the power seems to change hands from the human to the robot. Contemplated was human action the contemplation of dreams turned to apathy. Dominance ends: Think of a boy with the stars in his eyes Longing to reach them but frightened to try Sadly you'd say someday, someday But day after day the show must go on And you gaze at the sky And picture a memory of days in your life With time on your side. So, with thirty people compared to two hundred on The Project'* last effort. Parsons may disclaim the fact that too many cooks spoil the soup; in reality, the proof is in the pudding of / Robot. One who gormandizes, has always taken a backseat to one who consumes only to keep physically fit. —Harold Goldberg on its own terms. Deceptive Bends is a fine example of Efritish pop music. It displays a variety of moods and stylet, yet this variety is not to great that the album fOtes its consistency. Every tong has something to offer, be it a pleasant melody, a particularly appropriate original arrangement or a quality vocal performance. Such things maintain interest very well throughout the album's entire . length. Not surprisingly. Deceptive Bends is very guitar-oriented; little keyboard ornamentation can Eric Stewart is primarily be heard responsible for this, because he was the band's lead to have assumed a role as leader, for, the songs were written by both — — — . • . — * Prodigal Sun Friday, 22 July 1977 The Spectrum Page seven . . �Record Co-op hours The S.A.

James Taylor: still sweet by Barbara Komansky Mutic Editor One thing about James Taylor that will probably remain unchanged as long as he chooses music as his direction, will be the quality of sweetness that is characteristic of his genre and own personal efforts. "Sweet Baby James," "How Sweet It Is," "Sweet Dreams and Flying Machines". although it has been a long time since Taylor described the pleasure of the friction that occurs when one applies his shoe leather to the dust of the country roads. To wit, on this album, JT, the only reference to that old highway is in "Traffic Jam": “Damn, this traffic jam Gotta gat home before it gets too lata It hurts my car to go so slow.. ." Certainly sounds more like a confirmed urbanite than a post-period revamped talkie. The cover photo is a striking one, true to the tradition that was followed in the fifties' series pf movie stills. There’s also Danny "Kootch" Kortchrhar, the guitarist who's been with James since the periods long before James did the album containing Paul McCartney bass on "Carolina In My Mind." Kootch is a fine electric guitarist, not to mention active showman, and contributes to the new rockier feel with "Honey. Don't Leave LA," a tune that James chose for this album. A bit more at rollin' and tumblin' than "When I get a common cold/Wanna hear a course, Of there is the saxophone." so-sweet-it-is-crawlin'-with-flies "Handyman," a remake that is pretty with Leah Kunkel vocals, indeed, but lacking the bounce of "How Sweet It Is."* Linda Ronstadt and Taylor share their first harmony vocals on the JT album since their work on Neil Young's Harvest It is clear that James Taylor is on the upswing; while this album is not Gorilla, it is as good as In the Pocket, and certainly still far superior to the very weak Walking Man collection. James Taylor releases and tours every summer. Tours are easily identifiable with albums. Taylor still .. evokes art image that makes him quite identifiable but hard . to completely effectively capture in imitation. That is why his concert was such a pleasure just to listen to. The Niagara Falls Convention Center is easily one of the worst concert facilities, due to its squareness. Taylor smoothed some of the sharp edges with an excellent sound system, and of course, his interpretative vocal quality. He played "Carolina In My Mind," along with alt of those from Sweet Baby James, the calypso "One Man Dog" and electric blues version of "Steamroller" that was first featured on {he recent greatest hits package. But there was a surprisingly strong choice of louder, bounder (heavier is really not ah applicable word) numbers, such as "How Sweet It Is" and "Money Machine," from In The Pocket, that was able to stir the crowd out of its seats. But velocity and volume are of any real performers are often cornered into adding some weight to their act to make it marketable; Taylor is able to avoid this with great success. Also, the Section, which played a rather loud set of Fusion-oriented rock, is restrained and delicate with Taylor's quiet delivery. Kootch is joined here by Russ Kunkel, Clarence MacDonald and Lee Sklar, musicians who have been Taylor's band since Sweet Baby James. Witness "Long Ago and Far Away." The backup is so subtle that the performer and musicians function as a tightly woven mesh, with flexible warp threads. It wasn't earth-shattering, but it was certainly a fine musical presentation. Sometimes it's hard to find descriptive words for artists that are more consistent than anything else. There are times when one is just out of descriptive adjectives. It's especially hard to review the old guard unless there is some radical change of style. James Taylor's audience was carved out long ago. Just add him to the list of performers having their renaissance in popularity. Nicely done, both album and presentation. not consequence to Taylor's strength.

On June 22, 1977, an all-white jury convicted me on charges of rape, robbery, and sodomy. On July 27, Judge William J. Ostrowski will sentence me to prison on that conviction. In sentencing me, the judge has the option of giving me the maximum term of 25 years or the minimum term of three years. Of course I will appeal that conviction all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court of necessary. Also it still remains to be seen if I will actually be incarcerated or not, pending application-for bail on the appeal. 1 still mantain my innocence, despite the verdict reached by my so-called “peers.” Unfortunately racism was allowed to interfere with the course of justice and the verdict was not based on the evidence. Consequently my struggle to clear my name continues, and with more intensity than ever before. Your help is urgently needed in this matter. The first and most important thing that must be done, is to help assure that the sentence is as close to the minimum as possible. In order to help assure that, it is necessary to give the judge a more complete picture of me and my background by requesting that you and other individuals submit letters on ray behalf. These letters should be addressed to: Hon. William J. Ostrowski, Supreme Court Justice, Erie County, Erie County Hall, Buffalo, New York Unfair trial 14202. However these letters should be mailed to: Joseph D. Bermingham Jr. Esq., 1340 Statler Hilton Hotel, Buffalo, New York 14202. The letters should begin “Dear Judge Ostrowski” They should contain the following information: (1) A statement of whom the writer is. (2) How long the writer has known me, if personally acquainted with me. (3) Some statement that the individual knows the basic charges against me, that they know that I have been convicted, and reasons, based on the writer’s knowledge of me and my background, as to why I should be given only a minimum term of imprisonment. It is important that these letters be very neat, and wherever possible, typewritten. Since these letters will be bound in book form, please leave a one-inch (1”) left hand margin. They should be written on 8&xll” paper. It is also important that you refrain from attacking anyone in particular in tins letter. I urge you to prepare a letter and to ask others to do the same immediately.

I thank you very much in advance for your cooperation in this matter. Kenny Johnson Guest Opinion by Wendy Krasnoff Outrage has been expressed by members of the Buffalo community at the conviction of Kenneth Johnson, a black man accused of rape, robbery, sodomy and resisting arrest. The evidence presented in both trials clearly indicates that he is the victim of a racist frame-up. Members of women’s groups, labor unions, church groups, and student groups will be participating in a mass demonstration on Saturday, July 23, to support Kenneth Johnson. Supporters will assemble at 11 a.m M at Goodrich-mad EUicott, and will march down Main Street to Lafayette Square Park for a rally. The charges leveled against Johnson stem from a series of rapes which occurred in late November, 1975. The business community pressed for an arrest, since the rapes would curtail Christmas sales. Thd police were apparently desperate to find any black man, and proceeded to arbitrarily arrest and beat up Ken Johnson at his place of employment. The composite sketch presented to the police was of a light skinned black man. Johnson is dark skinned. Another discrepancy pointed out by the defense lawyer was that Johnson was noted to have no upper front teeth, a fact not mentioned until the trial. Additionally, a third rape victim who had participated in the drawing of the sketch so widely publicized in Buffalo was willing to testify that Johnson was not her attacker. The judge denied the motion that she be allowed to appear, claiming that she could have been raped by someone else, and that her testimony had no bearing on the case. After Johnson’s defense produced scores of witnesses that testified they were with him either during the rapes, or around that time, the first trial ended with an acquittal on first counts of rape, robbery, sodomy, and resisting arrest, and a hung jury on second counts. Much of the prosecutor’s case was based on the fact that both women were raped by the same man, yet his (the prosecutor’s) request for a re-trial was granted. A relevant but unexplored aspect of the charges against Johnson concerns several other rapes that occurred at the same period as the two for which Johnson was charged. Five or six rapes were reported, including the two that Johnson was charged with committing. All were by a man of similar description, and operating in a similar manner. The other victims did not identify Johnson as their attacker, but no further arrests were made. The prosecutor’s case was solely based on distortion of evidence, and defamation of the character of the witnesses. He whipped up every racist stereotype in order to convince the jury that the defense witnesses, many of whom were black, were unworthy and that their testimonies had no credibility. Even two of the jurors from the first trial stated that the atmosphere of racist hysteria created by the prosecutor greatly interferred with the course of justice. The use of racism was so prevalent in the second trial that it led the jury to disregard much of the evidence and hand down a guilty verdict. The prosecutor then audaciously asked that bail be revoked, but this was denied by the judge. Johnson is now free on $30,000 bail, pending sentencing on July 27. It is imperative that people come to the demonstration and show their anger at this gross miscarriage of justice. 3f\ profiles by Helen swede SA Publicity Chairperson Student Association’s (SA) long-awaited move to the Amherst Campus occurred last week but it may be a long while before things get settled. According to SA Office Manager Mary Palisano, “the place is a mess,” primarily due to the smaller office SA occupies in the new building. SA Executive Vice President. Andy Lalonde echoed similar complaints of disorganization and points out that after weeks of indefinite moving plans, the University Administration gave SA only three working days notice to move. Located in 114 Talbert Hall (636-2950), the student government and academic facility at Amherst, SA hopes to receive more working space. Prospects are dim, according to Sub-Board Norton/Amherst Division To the Editor: On June 22nd, 1977 Kenneth Johnson was convicted in State Supreme Court of Rape, Robbery, and Sodomy. At his first trial in April he was acquitted with regard to two incidents (rape and resisting arrest) but the jury was totally split with regard to the other charge. It was the retrail of this charge that led to the present conviction. The verdict is the culmination of nineteen months of fighting and organizing by Kenny and his supporters during which time Kenny has maintained both that he is totally innocent of the charges and that he could not expect a fair trial from the justice system that operates in this country. The trials have proved Kenny correct on both these points. Of the twenty-eight jurors that listened to Kenny’s case (twelve plus two alternates in each trial) all have been white. This is in a city where the Mack population is approaching 40 percent. Most of the jurors were middle-aged and from the suburbs. KENNETH JOHNSQN WAS NEVER TRIED BY A JURY OF HIS PEERl Kenneth Johnson’s defense was a thorough, straightforward statement of where he was at the time the rape occurred. This statement was never substantively challenged by the prosecution who instead sought to inflame the prejudices of the jury by racial and sexual slurs against Kenny and his witnesses and by lengthy discussion of past convictions (which were nothing more substantial than misdemeanor possession of marijuana). KENNETH JOHNSON WAS TRIED IN AN ATMOSPHERE OF VIRULENT AND PROFOUND RACISM. -The case against Kenneth Johnson consisted solely of an eye-witness identification by the victim of the rape. There was no supporting physical evidence (the clothes the rapist wore, the weapon he used). The police never made the slightest effort to find any such evidence. THE PROSECUTION DID NOT WISH TO TRY THE CASE ON THE FACTS. Kenneth Johnson and his defense committee have always maintained that rape is a vicious crime against women that must be fought against by women and men. In supporting Kenneth Johnson we do not condone, excuse, or seek to mitigate in the slightest the horror of what happened to the victim in this case. But racism in our society, and society’s racism mirrored in the racism of the courtroom, has a long and vile history which has destroyed and continues to destroy the lives of many, many people. It is attempting to claim Kenneth Johnson as its latest victim. Kenneth Johnson is innocent. They have arrested, and now they have convicted the wrong man. Kenny, and all of us, have suffered a severe setback. Very soon Kenny may be in prison, but he and all his supporters will continue to fight to clear Kenneth Johnson and eliminate racism from our society. If the fight against racism means anything to you we ask you to do something about Kenneth Johnson’s case. And right now one thing that everybody can do is give money. As much money as possible. The two trials cost the defense around $2S,000. Most of this money has not yet been paid. The cost of the appeal could easily be as high as $20,000. Publication of information, mailing of letters, sustaining a political campaign to free Kenny, all cost money. A lot of money. If you do not support us financially the fight cannot continue and an innocent man will spend twenty five years in prison. But I am sure we will get your support and though your money will not itself win Kenny’s freedom it is vital to the political and legal struggle that we will build. Make your checks out to the Committee to Clear Kenneth Johnson. Thank you. - — Director Joyce Levin. To grant more space to one group would result only in diminishing another group’s space, she said. However, SA maintains that additional space is sorely needed and many in SA feel that disproportionate space allocations were made. Lalonde believes that adjustments can be made without hurting other organizations which he feels can afford to relinquish space. He hopes to avoid tension among the other student groups relocated in Talbert but “SA simply can’t function in these quarters,’’ he said. He believes that an amicable solution to the problem is possible. Other student groups who join SA at the new campus include Sub-Board, UUAB, and the Graduate Student Association (GSA). Millard Fillmore College (MFC) is scheduled to move before the end of the sumiper. Also located in the three-floor structure is a Senate John L. Stainthorp Chamber for use by both student and faculty governments and a new Conference Theatre. But, because of delays in carpeting deliveries, these new facilities probably will not open before January, explains Levin. Consequently, most student activity will remain centered in Squire Hall, she points out. In anticipation of this and other problems, most groups will maintain satelite offices in UUAB’s former office space in 261 Squire Hall. Since the move to Amherst will not be fully completed for at least five years, according to University plans, Lalonde foresees much difficulty. “A lot will be determined this fall on how the situation is handled and planned,” he said. He further believes that student reaction coupled with Administration policy will be the key factors for a successful but unavoidably long transition. Friday, 22 July 1977 The Spectrum .

It is at the Artpark site that the Niagara River formed a gully, making it the easiest landing place along the river for miles. Here it was possible to surmount the only obstacle in the waterways from the Atlantic to the Mississippi the Falls. Whoever controlled this spot controlled all trade to the West. It was fought over for centuries by the British, French, Indians and American settlers. As early as 1615, thousands of dollars worth of furs were being portaged up the first mountain of the escarpment, which the Indians called “Crawl-on-all-Fours.” Citizens responsible In past years, the Artpark site has been a stone quarry, town garbage dump, winery, chemical dump and depository for millions of tons of rock, “spoil,” dug from the face of the gorge to accommodate the Niagara Power Project.

WBFO is the only publip radio station in the country to receive either a Gavel or Certificate in the 1977 competition. Its award-winning program competed with those of commercial and non-commercial radio stations of its market size located throughout the U.S. The ABA presented <19 Gavels and 38 Certificates of Merit to U.S. newspapers, news services, magazines, book publishers, motion picture producers, and radio and television networks and stations. “Separate but Equal” was produced and broadcast in May 1976 as an historical documentary reviewing U.S. Supreme Court cases pertaining to integration and spanned decisions from Plessy v. Ferguson (1896) to Brown v. Board of Education'(1954). The program also included a 1 discussion with Wade Newhouse and Lee Albert, both professors of law and jurisprudence at SUNY/Buffalo. The series was funded by a programming grant from the New York Council for the Humanities.

A visit to quiet, suburban Sweet Home High School left some of the Soviets dismayed at the relaxed atmosphere, informality and lack of discipline, according to Dunnett. One can only imagine what impression a visit to one of Buffalo’s inner-city schools might have left. One of the professors, Natasha Gvishiani of the Department of Philosophy at Moscow State University, said America was exactly as she expected it. At 28, Gvishiani is the youngest member of the group, whom Dunnett called the representative of the “new generation” of Soviets. Surprised by Ellicott Gvishiani, who speaks impeccable English with a British accent Prince Charles could envy, althpugh taught it by other Russians, was dressed in new American clothes and sported a fresh sunburn. “The advertising and mass media in America is very striking,” she said. “They keep stopping the films to say what toothpaste to buy. The people must be tired of it.” Gvishiani was also quite surprised by the absence of showers in the dormitory rooms they currently occupy in Ellicott. “I might expect it from an older building,” she said, “but this building is so new.” Dunnett stressed that the Soviet teachers are just like teachers anywhere. “People are basically the same everywhere,” he said. “These exchanges help break down the barriers to understanding that.” The most common items bought by the Soviets here are books, clothes and records, Dunnett said. ‘Their children gave them lists of records they wanted.'especially punk rock,” he noted. “They must not be that out of touch with the West.” scheduled.

LiOOtCTS . . . were cramped in Overcrowded Jails while awaiting arraignment. For these pilferers, who were confronted with the misfortune of being caught robbing their neighbors, the horror had just begun. Prisoners, ten per cell, were kept overnight in holding centers which contained no beds, and were served hot coffee and tea in the debilitating heat. Most unfortunate were those i ho were sent to the Tombs, an antiquated detention center wihich had been closed in 1974 by a Federal court because it was unfit for habitation. In striking contrast to the riots of the ’60’s, were the actions of the police in handling the delicate situation. Bver since the Columbia University uprising in 1967, New York police have been given explicit instructions not to shoot into riotous crowds, but only to disperse them by using nightsticks. As a result, no one was shot and only a very few were beaten. However, the non-violent handling of a violent situation handicapped the police force’s ability to control the mobs, making life much easier for the looters. Some city officials contended that the National Guard be called upon to help ease the burden of New York’s patrolmen, but Mayor-Abraham Beame declined to take such action. Beame’s prudent decision was made in view of the fact that the National Guard has jio training in riot control, a lesson learned all too well at Kent State University, seven years ago. F.xplanations for the hideous actions of the slum dwellers are legion. Most prevalent is the axiom that the poor people, given the chance, will steal from the wealthy “establishment” in a form of retaliation.

Indiscriminate looting Had the looters been hungry, desperate people, who had made WANTED cooks food markets as their targets, the riots could, in some way, be excused. However, even as degrading as life surely is in the. ghetto, it is improbable that the pillagers were starving. The first areas to be hit were clothing and furniture stores, and car dealerships, containing much merchandise hardly essential to survival. A feeling of Christmas-come-early pervaded the atmosphere as people happily frolicked among the ruins and taunted storekeepers while holding fast to their finds. The great tragedy of the debacle is, and this is so often the case, that the poor robbed the poor. Unlike the King riots in 1968 or those which occurred earlier in that decade when whites were most often made targets, the looting was indiscriminate. No distinction was made between black and white establishments; all fronts were hit. And when this type of action takes place in an impoverished area, those who can least afford it are stricken the hardest. Innocent sufferers What will soon become evident to those who cavorted gleefully in the havoc, is that they will soon have to awaken to, and live within, their own devestation. Precious little aid will arrive from the more affluent whites who are sure to have little sympathy for 'what they perceive to be people destroying what little they have. This is unfortunate because the overwhelming majority of those who lived in the affected areas did not participate in the vandalism and thus remain blameless. Yet these are the people who undoubtedly will suffer the most; the decent, law abiding citizens who will remain guilty by association and must begin again, on their own. One woman, while joining in the community devestation, joyfully announced, “There ain’t gonna be no Broadway tomorrow.” And she’s right, there ain’t.

The protestors had been encamped in a tent city on the hill for 62 days in an effort to block the university’s plans to build a $6 million gymnasium annex on the site of the May 4, 1970 violent confrontation. The prolonged demonstration was organized by a group of students called the May 4 Coalition, which had been ordered by Judge Joseph Kainrad of Common Pleas Court to leave the site of the proposed gymnasium or face mass arrests. In what was considered a small concession to the demonstrators, however, Kainrad ordered the university not to start any construction work until a final court hearing on the issue is held on July 21. The helmeted campus police and Portland County Sheriff’s deputies carried nightsticks, but no guns, as they arrived at the hill and began arresting the demonstrators, many of whom linked arms and legs in nonviolent resistance. Todd McFarren, of the May 4 Coalition, confirmed the absence of any violence, but added that there were “some twisted ankles and bruised backs” as people who “went limp” were dragged down the hill. A spokesperson from the Kent State University News Service stated, “The incident was peaceful and not one nightstick was used.” McFarren continued that all those arrested were released almost 194 people were arrested on Kent State University Campus last Tuesday. They were staging a sit-in at the site where 4 persons were killed on May 4, 1970 by National Guardsmen. The confrontation developed because the University plans to build a gym on the site.

The report had been leaked to the local newspapers four days earlier. Dr. John Naughton, Dean of School at headed University, controversial study which undertaken to evaluate the Medical rumors was altogether. the Grider Street. The study has come under fire for recommending the “phased relocation” of Children’s, a unique pediatric care facility. (See article page 3.) the questioning Much of revolved around the elimination of Children’s. Naughton conceded in his response that public outcry about the phasing out of the facility might be too great to be overcome. “We read the papers, we’re aware of public sentiment,' he said. “But,” he concluded “our recommendations are based on what best economi ically, environmentally, and medic lly in the years ahead.” Non-vocal supporters interview speculated nature puui 01 ,->C The a igh I Tuesday Naughton been Doctors ‘defensive’ Naughton observed that some physicians object to the merger suggests “greater because it control and accountability, two features of life with which many physicians are not completely comfortable.” Asked to elaborate this statement, he responded, "We’re pretty much individuals who like to do our own thing. We like to have a lot of options.” He added tend to that doctors become “defensive” when their professional “boundaries become more fixed." By no means does the study policy dictate to the four Naughton insisted, hospitals, adding that the consolidation may have to be reduced to two or three institutions depending on how many accept the report on Handles questioning with abou t an Speit ru rn that the staff there had opposed to the merger this the possibility of merging Children’s, Deaconess, Buffalo General, and Meyer Memorial Hospitals in to the new Fne County Hospital on In press conterence, At the Naughton hinted that the relative importance of the report is possibly being exaggerated. “Our job is not to make a decision Our is too make a job recommendation.” He suggested that the staff and planning board of Children’s Hospital get together to discuss the future of the facility.

Reiss Managing Editor The New York Metropolitan area was paralyzed Wednesday night by a widespread power failure which encompassed virtually all of New York City and portions of thy surrounding suburbs. It was estimated that upwards of 20 million people in New York’s five boroughs, parts of northern New Jersey, Suffolk County, and counties north of Westchester were affected by the blackout. The cause of the power failure appears to have stemmed from a series of lightning bolts which struck a major Consolidated Edison generator in Westchester County, knocking it out. Efforts to shift the power burden to other plants failed and the lights went out at 9:34 p.m A Con Ed spokeswoman said the demand for power during the evening had been particularly high in the hot and sultry weather. When the first generator went out of commission, she explained. Con Ed attempted to channel the load to other facilities, particularly to its Big Allis generator, and in fact purposely blacked out certain areas to ease the load. Unfortunately, she explained, the extra drain was too much for those plants and they systematically broke down in what is known as a cascading effect. Widespread looting Con Hd appealed to affected customers to turn off all electrical appliances which may have been in use when the blackout occurred. Officials were fearful that a second power failure could result due to a “demand surge” when power was restored The experience stirred memories of the t of Noven ,her Q !Qr,5 blackout wl.i. f. rl (allure the North Eastern seaboard That power however, struck earlier in the evening when stores were still open, enabling people to venture outside and purchase candles Among the most immediate and deveslatmg effects of the blackout was the widespread looting which was evidenced mostly in Brooklyn and Manhattan As of 10 a.m. Thursday, over 2000 people had been arrested for vandalizing local stores and countless others had successfully evaded city police. No such problems were experienced in the 1965 power failure, and Mayor Abe Beame declared the City to be in a state of emergency. In one area of East Harlem, on Third Avenue between 104th and 114th Streets, WCBS radio correspondent Steve Reed reported free-for-all looting. Reed claimed that nearly three-quarters of the stores in the area had been hit and he predicted that by daybreak, most shops would be free of merchandise. One person who was participating in the illegal activity claimed “The people are hungry; they’re hurting. We haven’t had an opportunity like this in twelve years.” Cubs play without lights One of the most dangerous results of power failures in New York is that thousands of people inevitably become trapped in underground subways. Many people had to be guided by police along the tunnel catwalks to the nearest street exits. Still others remained trapped in subway cars until alternate power systems could be utilized. However, these alternate systems do not control the ventilation system and temperatures in tne tunnels become very uncomfortable. Restoration of power to some customers began early Thursday morning, with most of the recipients living in Queens and Westchester. By 11 a.m. Thursday, Con Ed reported that approximately one-third of the affected customers were receiving electricity. take During the evening, New Yorkers, who often pride in facing adversity, weathered the storm overflowing with new found customers and people throughout the city seemed to be taking a sit and wait attitude. Thousands were left in the dark at Shea Stadium where the Mets were playing the Chicago Cubs. The Cubs are used to playing without lights, although not under these circumstances. The game was halted, as were Broadway performances �International Study grants available now from Council WBFO Laetrile reviewed Buffalo public radio station WBFO (88.7 FM) will broadcast live coverage by National Public Radio of Senate Health Subcommittee hearings on the controversial drug laetrile. The hearings are scheduled to begin at 10:05 am and are expected to run three hours. WBFO anticipates scheduling coverage of an afternoon session as well if it arises. The Food and Drug Administration has refused to allow the manufacture of laetrile in the United States, citing studies showing it to be ineffective as a cancer cure. A number of physicians dispute the findings, claiming that the drug has actually helped some cancer patients. The subcommittee, chaired by Sen. Edward Kennedy (D., Mass.), will enter the controversy by hearing testimony from witnesses who hold that laetrile is either a miracle cure or a cruel hoax. NPR science reporter Ira Flatow will host the radio coverage. WBFO will pre-empt regular programming for the duration of the laetrile hearings. The Council on International Studies has announced the opening of the 1978-79 competition for grants for graduate study or research abroad, through the Institute of International Education, in academic fields and for professional training in creative and performing arts.

All resisting arrest charges against the protestors were dropped, leaving only charges of disobeying a court order. Weekend bus service between Ellicott and Main Street will be continued at least until the end of July, although the frequency of the service has been cut back by approximately 50 percent. The bus service was continued because ridership during the two trial weekends indicated that there was a reasonable demand for it. An average of 139 people per day rode the buses over the five-day (two trial period weekends and July 4), with a high of 199 people on July 2. Buses ran from 9 a.m. At the end of July, the weekend bus service will be reevaluated to see if there is still enough demand for service. Vice President for Finance and Management Ed Doty said that there are usually fewer people attending this University during the last summer session, decreasing the need for weekend service. He said that after July, it was “likely” that weekend buses would be eliminated entirely. According to Doty, the new schedule will cost approximately there was not enough demand to continue running morning and late night buses, so they were discontinued.

This will be at the expense of other things.” to 11 McFarren said the May 4 Coalition has called for a national rally on July 21 and 22 to protest the construction of the gym annex on the site where four students were killed and nine others wounded in the 1970 shootings. The Coalition does not object to its being built someplace else on campus. The parents of Sandra Scheuer, one of the four dead students, and the parents of Aim Canfora, who was wounded, were among the first to be arrested on Tuesday. “It was a very emotional scene when they came and sat with the demonstrators,” said McFarren. “People were crying and cheering at the same time,” he continued. As protestors were being carried away, a crowd estimated by both McFarren and the News Service spokesperson at 800 to 1000 people gathered, many of whom began chanting. Mounted police arrived and, according to McFarren “there was some tension, but then the crowd disbanded.” He continued that the Student Caucus (student government), from whose offices the Coalition is now operating, supports the fight against the construction of the annex and Out the student newspaper. The Daily Kent Stater, “vaguely” supported the movement before ceasing operations for the summer. Questioned about general university and community support for the protestors, McFsiren commented, “Things are better than ever." He felt that of the 5000 or so students on campus for summer sessions, many were against the construction of the annex and that “the faculty is moving toward our direction and will soon issue a statement.” McFarren also felt that businessmen in the town of Kent, many of whom felt students “dese.ved it” in 1970, are “on our side now because the situation makes for bad publicity and bad business.” The University News Service spokesperson said, “There have been no faculty statements as of yet” and furthermore didn’t know of “any dissension in the administration.” The spokesperson continued that “privately, some members of the administration have reservations about the construction, but are not voicing them in public.” A major reason for constructing the annex on Blanket Hill, where die Coalition feels a national monument should be erected, is a possible savings of much money. A News Service press statement reads: “The savings from this site are estimated to be in excess of one million dollars. The construction design utilizes the hillside as a natural insulator, reducing all anticipated heating costs.” University began the summer $40,000 over its budget for busing, but the weekend service will not make matters too much worse. “We’ll just be a little shorter than we were," Doty said. In the fall semester, something will have to be done to make up for the $40,000 deficit. “I don’t p.m. during the trial period, but National rally planned Better $170 per weekend, or about half the cost of the trial service.

The motion was brought by Dacajeweiah in order to challenge the validity of the New York State Parole Board decision of January 18, 1977 which denied him parole despite the fact that his sentence had been commuted to immediate parole eligibility by (Governor Carey on December JO. 1976 The motion claimed that the parole board was pressured denying Dacajeweiah parole by legislators, prison guards, state into police, correction officers, sheriffs and others who acted improperly Meeting held It also alleged that the hoard was not fit to hear Dacajeweiah's the since application parole chairman of the hoard is I dward Hammock, was Hammock formerly on the staff of the Attica prosecution and was involved with prosecuting Dacajeweiah.

The Spectrum Page three �EditPrial I_ _J 'Tin soldiers and Nixon coming’ On an anxious, sunny day seven distant years ago, when most of us were still in junior high school, four students were fatally shot and nine others wounded by careless National Guard bullets on the campus of Kent State University in Ohio. The Guard had been summoned by Ohio governor James Rhodes with instructions to "get" the student demonstrators, whom he termed "worse than Communists, worse than brownshirts." Remember Kent State? It is a unique moment now, because the memory of those tragic shootings is still as charged with emotion as it is filled with historical significance. Perhaps all of recent history can be described in such terms, but the anti-war movement of the late 1960s and early 1970s is not only a segment of chronological time, it is a vivid portrayal of a national consciousness. Kent State has become a symbol of the frustration, the much maligned solidarity and the utter rage of that consciousness. Vet all that remains of the incident is a small tablet in the parking lot next to Blanket Hill, the site of the shootings, bearing the names of the four dead students Allison Krause, Jeffrey Miller, Sandra Scheuer, William Schroeder. Not a single person was ever convicted of their murders. — astronauts, let's say, If those four had been American heroes killed in a freak accident a national monument would have been erected immediately. "They died unjustly," it would have read. Did those students die any less unjustly? No, they were protesting a tragic, costly mistake, the fault and filth of which have already been well documented.

The article manipulated by high ranking freaking) government and business leaders. While the matter was exposed very well, I felt as though he did not delve deeply enough! into the reasons why. He did state that the isolation of the campus and the students was a reaction to the movements of the late 60’s and early 70’s This was clearly the main reason but 1 would have preferred to see the matter more severely exposed. Obviously, those who make decisions such as these, felt an extreme urgency to do so. The establishment was being threatened and it responded accordingly to protect its OWN INTERESTS. They aimed at preventing dissent and unity among the youth, on a major college campus from which new ideas for the improvement of society are supposed to emanate. New ideas, improvement? What are those'’ I oday s universities are merely training centers for the preservation of the status quo. Democracy 7 Ha! WE are rapidly approaching the Humanoid status which Howard Biele spoke of in the movie Network. If this is news to you, you’d better start thinking about it and perhaps screaming, “I’m mad as hell.” And so it goes. Education becomes exclusive, a tool for the expensive, isolated, specialized perpetuation of the present hierarchical order. Another point worth mentioning is the “other” the Buffalo proposed site for the new campus Waterfront, behind City Hall. Barren land, a beautiful site overlooking the mighty Niagara River and Lake Erie. Downtown businesspeople wanted the campus in order to save their decaying city. And what a fine location it would have been, in the heart of the city where real things happen, not in an isolated Suburban swamp. So what really happened? Did Rockefeller seek to keep students away from the center of a large city where they would surely be exposed to his games, those of the ruling elite, our very own feudal overlords 7 Or did people who owned the Amherst swamp lands and the surrounding area use their filthy dollar-power to profit to an even greater extent? A combination of the two? Ask yourselves some questions, seek the truth, learn about what people or conglomerate powers are controlling, shaping YOUR future, YOUR lives. Then and only then can you even seek to be free and live meaningful, truly happy lives. - - Morv Fox — • > — L A monument should be erected on Blanket Hill, which should be declared a historical site. As such, no university administration would ever consider destroying it in favor of a gymnasium annex. Officials at Kent State cannot wipe away the blood of an important historical event by removing the grounds upon which it was spilled. But they are not stupid; they chose to begin action at the end of the spring semester so that when the decisive moment arrived, few students would be around to protest. (When students at this university returned to school last fall, they were suddenly hit with a manoatory health insurance. When hid that decision been made?) This attempted manipulation of history must not go unnoticed that we presently have the choice of going to this University and — studying what we please without the fear of being drafted or otherwise dealing with a military machine on this campus is living proof that those four Kent State students did not die for nothing. If you choose disavow their importance by ignoring the bloody facts, by contending that the days of student activism are over, you are wrong, because your current university experience is born out of the trials and tribulations of that era. to The current fight at Kent State is not over.

Purchase Power is one of several SASU sponsored programs that Clifford and fellow representatives Claire Reardon and Jeff Winkler plan to work on this year. Other plans include a voter registration drive, increased publicity of student rights and investigation of unionization of this University’s student government. Unionization is a process by which students can dispense with parliamentary procedure and conduct informal meetings to deal with problems. Clifford pointed out that this procedure would not replace the present government structure, only supplement it. Further plans will include helping students adjust to the new campus, Clifford hopes that SASU’s planned information campaign will be of assistance in the University’s move to Amherst.

Reciting statistics of album sales, concert attendance and media visibility in the pre-V.S.O.P. concert publicity only made one more aware that a singular musical event was going to take place. By the night of the concert the excitement level had built to a point where downtown Buffalo experienced it's first late-night traffic jam since the hockey season ended. Like the fine cognac from which the name V.S.O.P. was garnered, each musician in the quintet has continually matured and distilled his talent over the years of experience they have had at the forefront of modern jazz. The V.S.O.P. concert (which actually stands for Very Slow Old the process of producing not Very Special One cognac Time Performance as the Columbia concert hype would have one believe) last Friday evening gave the ever-growing jazz audience in Buffalo a chance to savor a rare moment in the history of jazz that may ultimately alter the course these five musicians will chart in their next ventures. The evidence of the return to a Pale, — higher standard of playing was laid out in full view for the near capacity crowd at Shea's. This display was hampered, however, by a sound crew that even by the second show seemed ill-prepared to deal with the acoustics of this historic national landmark. Sound plaguM cognac Sound problems plagued the set opening by delivered saxophonist John Klemmer and group, an aggregation that seemed at home with excessive volume and rockish rhythms which led to a muddled performance. A pit, because Klemmer can play his sax as he's proven on numerous live and studio albums. Despite the low level of musicianship displayed by Klemmer's back-up group, the and volume heavy-handed rhythm combined with Klemmer's catchy phrasing did get the audience "up" as is the function of the warm-up band. Most successful of the Klemmer set was his closing number, Stanley "Quiet Clarke's Afternoon." The sound problems were not resolved by the time Hancock led the V.S.O.P. quintet on stage. As a result, much of the first number, "Eye the Hancock's of Hurricane," was lost in the booming bass (which was no fault of Ron overbearing was again Carter) and the drum sound (which no fault of Tony Williams). ’Eye of the Hurricane" is a firey, uptempo piece which gave lots of solo space for the well-tempered sound of Wayne Shorter's tenor sax and for the trumpet of Freddie Hubbard which proved to be surprisingly lyrical that evening. It was a crowd pleaser which towards the end of the piece allowed the skill and finesse of Williams' drumming to come through. His rapid rolls and devastating cymbol crashes stole the show and he received a warm ovation for his efforts. As the audience settled back Herbie announced the next R on selection. Carter composition, Waltz," “Blues taken at an easy tempo. It was a delightful experience which by its nature allowed the volume level to come down still further. Shorter seemed most cognizant of this fact and he played as tenderly as I've heard him in years. Carter's bass work was featured throughout the piece and he delivered a very subtle solo ending in octave slide that provoked oohs and aahs of approval as Herbie led back into the chorus. At the conclusion of "Blues Waltz" Herbie smiled amidst the ovation and remarked, "Yeah. I enjoyed that myself." Focus on Herbie Hancock At this point it seemed Hancock and company were warming to the audience and each other and they exchanged glances of approval, at times breaking into unrestrained smiles. Herbie cajoled the others and was the focal point for the performance. At one point he reached into the acoustic piano, plucking and strumming the strings during Hubbard's solo and Freddie responded by a few squirks and squeals from his horn. It was quite they were listening apparent intently to each other which gave the music freedom and happiness. Of all the quintet, 6'4" Ron Carter has over the years remained truest to the straight-ahead acoustic jazz of the 60's. His performance at Shea's revealed this steadiness and excellence which has established him as the leading bassist of his generation. During the performance. Carter showed why he is in such demand these days for album dates and concerts by musicians of all types. Another of his compositions, "A-1," is a slightly funky number which moves out of the funk and into a light, graceful swing making it the perfect showcase for Carter's rich, resonant tone. Saxophonist Wayne Shorter easily between the soprano and tenor sometimes pulling the switch during the middle of the piece as he did in Carter's It was a pleasant change to see Shorter given so much room to move. His recent performance at Kleinhans with Weather Report made it painfully obvious that he is restricted by the increasingly commercialized alternated -continued on page 6 �Trash and treasure can be found in cinema this week me briefly dispose of two eminently disposable movies, opening coincidentally with the summer junk food stands Is there anything deep about The Deep 7 Not the plot: again Peter Benchley has pierced his muse's side and, like Jesus on the cross, biood and water flows out.

Shakespeare Stratford by directed Robin Festival, Phillips, was the best performance of a Shakespearean comedy I have seen. Brought back this summer, a changes have been made, some good, some not so good, but by and large it is the same production. It is, therefore, the best of the seven offerings currently running at Stratford. In Robin Phillips' brilliant and complex interpretation, this play is about the ephemerality of beauty, and metamorphosis, and the of identity, and the relationship of theatrical experience to dream. Phillips our crystallizes of aspects theatrical experience of which we are ordinarily only vaguely aware by embodying them in an actual figure onstage, the figure of Queen Elizabeth I.

Stripped of magic as Phillips recognizes, Shakespeare did, that the beauty and meaningfulness of theatrical indeed, of all experience — experience is inseparable from its ephemerality. It cannot be pinned down to the objects which were its source. Step by step, he strips the magic from the physical beings in which it has inhered. We, like his Elizabeth, are made acutely aware of its departure, until finally we actually watch the last evidence of the play's a spotlight transforming magic on the stage (and lighting has been paramount in creating the forest's magic) "scrubbed" away by a washerwoman, who herself is the metamorphosis of Titania's First — — . — ... — Fairy. The magic of the experience consisted of the relationship . audience and intensified greatly our experience of the play as wonderous and dreamlike. Elizabeth is made to be the summation of the play. She is at both its core and its periphery. From one perspective, she is the audience to a masque presented in her honor (as the original production of this play probably was, in 1595). The actors are the aristocrats of her court, and she herself (as was Renaissance for English poets) as the Fairy Queen. From another perspective, the whole play takes place inside her head, as a beautiful romantic fantasy. All the female figures are made up and costumed like her, and are, therefore (like Hippolyta and Titania), in some sense avatars of Elizabeth. And all the male figures are costumed like Barry who the plays MacGregor, represented is customary combined part of Theseus-Oberon. This figure is the projection of Elizabeth's romantic fantasy stern, handsome, and dashing. As many critics have noted, the characters of this play — lack psychological depth. But this is quite appropriate for dream projections of our desires. We do not dream rounded, "characters," three-dimensional we dream images of what we want and what we fear. Queenly slumber In a sense, the whole court was Elizabeth's dream. As the Queen, she was the dreamer who dreamed the kingdom, and, conversely, the object and subject of everyone else's fantasies (especially poets'). the other perspective From mentioned above, the whole court was a play presented to her, in her honor. The fact that all the secondary characters look alike in this production can be taken in two directions: (1) into the play proper, where it emphasizes the conventionality and, therefore, the interchangeability of people in love, and lovers in romantic (2) and into the literature; where it framing device, SUPERFE5T at the STADIUM for “PART 12” Orchard Park N.Y. , SAT. AUG. 20th Guys and Gals! — emphasizes the melancholy of absolute rule. All Elizabeth can ever encounter whether this is a public masque or a private dream are projections of herself. When one is omnipotent, one is also completely alone. And insofar as we of all have fantasies total omnipotence, of the fulfillment of our desires fantasies which a play like this one is designed to engage and recreate we are in the same situation. The experience of this play may well have been one of the poignant melancholy for the real Elizabeth: a hymn to the magic and beauty of sexual love, ending with a blessing of the marriage bed, presented to the life-long solitary and lonely Virgin — — — FESTIVAL EAST I BELKIN PRESENT "With A Little Help From OFM 97" UNISEX iMtest European Cuts er Center the and magical experience, and then back to final - Quch at communal Historically speaking.

A number of the changes in this year's production clarify both the identification of the play as and its dream, Elizabeth’s metadramatic qualitites (i.e., the ways it is about theater itself).

He seems now not a figure of romantic fantasy, but merely an actor (or aristocratic masquer) who, having presented a play to his Queen, goes off with the other actors and leaves her alone.

Furthermore, instead of having the house! ights come up gradually, dispensing with the curtain call, and having the actors bid us goodnight in the theater lobby (as was done last summer), a regular curtain call is instituted.

The Gabby Pahinui Band (Warner Bros.) Michael Stanley Band, Stagepass (Rpic) Album covers, with the exception of the abstract realisms portrayed by Norman Seefe, tend to portend little of what is to be in store for the ear. Fork It Over, the album by backup musicians extraordinaire, Danny Kortchmar, Lee Sklar, Craig Doerge and Russ Kunkel, known as The Section, frees the arcaneness of album cover art to elucidation. Painted, and more importantly, felt is a fork holding a record wedge. It is not dripping lusciously for the taste buds, but for the ear. The section of the album is meaningful, too, in that a part of many marketed records has, for years, been intricately pieced together by these fine talents. As the Buffalo summer rolls from humid breezes to banal doldrums. The Section is touring with and opening for James Taylor, bringing to the air a refreshing coolness. The conditioned freshness sees music in the rock-jazz mode. The Section's expert creativity spurns burning imagination on the listener's part. the ear. Through interpretation. Through Through the mind. Music here is orchestrated by pastoral images of scenery and fast paced, sometimes confused, city living. Of course, The Section splits the images to two record sides, rural and urban. This production is not a whim of schizophrenia Fork It Over's idea is more complicated than that. Ears become eyes apt to see stories with the words and lyrics of scaled notes. Very smooth and easy is the sound, not the dross of Kiss or the waste of The Ramones. "Magnetic Lady" is a bass, keyboard, drum, mystical to understand the argument guitar mesmerizing potion of love The struggle for love ends in harmony, a realized oneness with David Crosby vocals given this insight by the Section. "Rainbows" defines water colors with the welcome outpouring of heart analogous to downpouring storm by Craig Doerge's keyboards. Russ Kunkel's drums characterize ram flowing rhythm and a feeling natural and Lee Sklar's bass booms softly, then confidently, to introduce the sun.

One's appetite for color brilliance is appeased as The Section's Fork It Over makes nature accessible to all. David Sanborn's saxophone tunes the true jazz of nature to mellow each involved in the tenable feeling of emotion. Promise Me The Moon claims and changes even the most casual listener's mood to one of sensuality. From the peppy Danny Kortchmar written title track to the woozy jazz blues notes of James Taylor's "Benjamin" Sanborn exhales his essence to his sax, exploding to invade one's own mind with lively life breaths. Although Hiram Bullock's vocal on "Promise Me The Moon" is too casual and Dale Oehler's piano is too overbearing on "Benjamin," Jumana Santos' percussion keeps the faithful beat alive and carefully moving to Sanborn's instrument. The album's second side flows easier than does side one. This is due to the extended length of songs; since jazz is composed of improvisation (which gives it life), time is needed to ripen the jam. Everyone wakes to the rising Latin beat of "Morning Salsa;" the sax sound is made full by keyboards and guitar. Warm sun shines the day ahead of you; the music is the warm body and the body is full of energy. How rich we are. "The Legend of Cheops" shows the Egyptian Khufu unleashing the country citizenry to enslaving and build the Great Pyramids, impoverishing his Egypt for his questionable supernatural beliefs. Here the sax reveals the almost divine ego of the king.

Combining traditional sad smiles of the islands with modern movements, Pahinui reflects the genuine genuflection toward the people's prideful identity before Western colonization and still-hoped-for assimilation. But this sort of mixture cannot happen so long as music flourishes the surreality of life's chauvinism. Pahinui features the swaying palms, the innocence of dark young women and carefree life with the happy wines of steel guitars sobered by the optimism of acoustic sounds. Lyrics are the Hawaiian language translated not on record, but on liner notes, to English. "Wahinui U'l is: "You, this is for you Flower, Lake!a flower Beautiful, you are so beautiful Such a lovely lady. The simplicity is almost untarnished. Almost.

The Michael Stanley Band's Stagepass permits the listener to return to midwest rock 'n roll . permitting the whole of America to gather 'round the live album. Always a sucker for a good ballad, Stanley's Cleveland Sleaze "Will You Love Me Tomorrow" starts as a mellow rocker, then bridges slicing what is mellow to be spliced with driving rock 'n roll. The original arrangement proposes electric rock to Goffin-King; what a fine, admirably immodest proposal. Bob Pelander's vocals enhance the song with progression. The soft becomes hard; never give up on the original positions of this band. The double live Stagepass combines standards with many new tunes. I especially like the satirically sexual "Midwest Midnight." "Witti thirteen lovers I hid beneath the covers Got staples in my hands for my time With the radio so low so my folks won't know / proceed with my passion crime. The song moves to reveal the best interpretation of rock star life I have ever heard. The lyrics are biting monition . . — " and incisive a rock begins and ends with the radio.

He is also very good in the "Emerson" and "Thoreau" movements (Kalish employs the optional viola and flute parts in each movement, respectively), and achieves an overall homogenity in temperment, yet difference in style that adds up to a total experience.

The Iranians spent this week in Las Vegas, competing in the World Junior (20-year olds and under) Wrestling Championships, so by the time they arrive in Buffalo, they could have among them some Junior World Champions. The trip to Buffalo will be partly sponsored by the International Affairs branch of the Student Association. The Iranian athletes will be given a luncheon, and at 2 o’clock on Tuesday, will give a clinic at Clark Hall. The clinic, which will be open to the public, is designed to help local high school and junior high school wrestlers and coaches. There will be demonstrations in both freestyle and Greco-Roman wrestling. (Greco-Roman wrestling, which is not very popular in the United States, does not allow any holds below the waist.) Bulls in action Tuesday evening, the Iranians will wrestle against the Niagara AAU All-Star team, at Orchard Park High School at 7 p.m. The Niagara AAU team will feature several Bulls wrestlers, including Tom Jacoutot at 114 pounds, Ed Tyrrell at 136, Kirk Anderson at 163 and Dave Mitchell at 180. The coaches of the AAU team will also be UB Alumni. The freestyle team will be coached by Tony Policare and Roy Guarino. Policare is currently the coach at Orchard Park High School and Guarino coaches at Williamsville East. The Greco-Roman team will be coached by Gary Fries (now at Frontier High) and by Bill Jacoutot (now at Bishop Neumann). Bulls wrestling coach Ed Michael is primarily responsible for bringing the Iranian team to Wrestern New York. This is the second time that a foreign national wrestling team has visited this University, the first being the Polish National Team in 1975. Wrestling is the national sport in Iran. Iranians have done very well past, winning several World Titles, although they did not fare the in well in the Montreal Olympics last summer. Those who do win world championships are regarded as heroes in Iran. sports shorts. Digging into UB’s football past, some interesting items come to light. For example, the worst loss ever suffered by the Bulls was a (By the way, the team 128-0 thumping by Michigan, way back in Buffalo’s win was an 81-0 then.) biggest the Bisons back was known as was in 1894, begun Hobart 1918. Since football over in triumph Buffalo has won 238 games, lost 243 and tied 27. In 1935, the football team reported to fall practice only to find that there were no footballs on campus. The Bulls first played at Rotary Field in 1920, although during the 1940s and 1950, Buffalo played many of its games in Civic Stadium (now known as War Memorial Stadium). Before 1920, the Bulls played their home games at Main and Jefferson, where the Sears store now stands. Buffalo moved into the NCAA’s University Division (the highest level of competition) in 1962, and from then until 1970, the sport s last year, Buffalo was 46-37-4 having only one losing season. Two Bulls from that era, Gerry Philbin and John Stofa, wound up in the pros. 1901. Wrestling recruits There will be an increased spirit of brotherhood on the wrestling Bulls next year. That’s because there will probably be two pairs of brothers on the team next year. Freshman Dave Tundo from Elmira will be joining brother Gene Tundo on the Bulls squad. The younger Tundo, who will probably wrestle at either 134 or 142 pounds, finished fifth in New York State as a senior at Frontier High. The other brother combination will be Michael and Tom Jacoutot of Old Bridge, New Jersey. They are brothers of Bill Jacoutot, a Bulls wrestling star in the early seventies. Michael, who wrestles at 126 pounds, finished second, third and fourth in consecutive years at the New Jersey High School Championships. Tom, who wrestles at 118 pounds, will be returning to the team after a one year absence. Wrestling coach Ed Michael has also recruited some excellent prospects for the heavier weight classes, where the Bulls were weak last Bulls year. Heavyweight James Bottcher of Elmira will be joining the at tournament Olympic Junior the National after finishing fifth in to expected also Memphis this summer.

The At the source of the dispute President felt certain phrases in over the program are the the document were “internally SUNY-wide guidelines for use of inconsistent” and must be revised mandatory fees. Those rules allow The GLS program would be fees to be spent for “programs of supported by student mandatory educational, social, or cultural fees and would provide free legal enrichment, of benefit to the* counseling and representation to campus community” and for all students. Most of its supporters “student services to supplement feel it will be ultimately rejected or add to those provided by the by the Administration and a court University.” The administration battle will ensue. “I can predict has consistently held that that the program will not be individual of representation approved and that we’ll win in students, as a concept, falls well court,” said Director of GLS outside the guidelines and on David Brownstein. those grounds Associate Vice President Anthony Lorenzetti officially rejected the proposal Right to know “I think we are sympathetic to last month. the fact that this has taken almost Loren zetti’s opinion was that a year,” related Assistant to the the program benefits only the President Ron Stein, “Even if the answer to W students have a community, and that it was not right to that knowledge because the type of program that SUNY they do have certain options.” Board of Trustees would term “a His~ Stein was referring to the studeht service.” expected court test. understanding was that the nearly enough to cover costs. Objections were also raised concerning the use of student fees to defend “criminals.” “He (Ketter) seemed to be -. pointing out that the criminal element will flourish because there are lawyers to represent it,” Meridean related. “That is as absurd as saying disease will flourish because there are doctors to treat it.” David Brownstein of the portion was meant for guidelines 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. “services” Criminals? . An appeal to Ketter is now the only remaining avenue for the student outside of litigation, Last week’s meeting was not an official appeal, although some of the students attending were under the impression it was. “The was meeting > Both Meridean and Brownstein felt that discussions surrounding the feasibility or ultimate effect of the were program extemporaneous to the real issue of whether or not individual representation falls within the fee guidelines. “They can’t disapprove a program because they think its an unwise expenditure,” Meridean observed. Lorenzetti that agreed particular characteristics of the program such as feasibility were “not really the issue. The issue boils down to litigation, if boils down individual to representation.” His position on individual representation has always been that it does not adhere to the guidelines. represented. Although Brownstein had decided to drop the controversial clause last month, it was still contained in the actual document that was debated at the meeting. There was also some confusion as to whether the proposal had ever been formally submitted to the President. Students reasoned that submission to Ketter’s designee, Lorenzetti, constituted submission to the President. Stein said that is not, and never has been, the case. Students noted that Counsel to the President HQlory Bradford received the document and rendered opinions on it months ago. “Because his employees did not inform him does not mean he can say he was unaware of the proposal,” Meridean commented. “Although I’m sure he can deny formal knowledge,” she added. The student side was hampered further by the existence of two versions of their proposal. One contained a section providing for « bail fundIt. was not known if other existed discrepencies between the two documents. Students were apparently unaware of the differences until they were brought out at the meeting. ' Digging may begin next year Rapid transit in Buffalo hinges on impact study by Richard Chon Spectrum Staff Wjiter The $336 million light rail rapid transit system planned for the Niagara Frontier could be a reality by the late summer of 1982, an official of the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority (NFTA) has told The Spectrum. According to Larry Schieber, spokesman for the Metro Construction Division of the NFTA, if all goes well, construction on the 6.4 mile transit route could begin as early as the summer of next year. Among the obstacles facing final go-ahead of the transit route is the Environmental Impact Statement (GIS), a study of the environmental effects the route could have on the area. The findings of the EIS must be approved by the federal government before the final funds are appropriated for the project. A public hearing is scheduled for July 14 at the Buffalo and Erie County Public Library (comer of Clinton and Ellicott) to discuss the environmental study. There the study will be placed under close scrutiny by several federal, state, and local agencies. The record will be kept open for those absent from the hearing to voice their opinions in written form. After the hearing, the EIS will then be sent to the Federal Urban Mass Transit Administration (UMTA) for final approval. If other problems are overcome (a soil test of the route along Main Street is being done), and the EIS is approved, then construction could conceivably begin by late summer of 1978. Commitment The rapid transit system proposed for Buffalo was given the financial green light in June of last year, when the federal government announced a “commitment in principle” to the project. Under the provisions of its agreement, the federal government pledged 80 percent of the transit route’s $336 million price tag providing that the state supply the remaining 20 percent. In October of last year, the federal and state governments appropriated the first $10 million for the route. These funds were employed for general architectural and engieering studies, as well as for the funding of the environmental study. NFTA expects the decision on the EIS in January of next year at the latest. If the project is completed, Buffalo will be the first city in the United States to use the so-called “light rail” transit system. The name “light rail” is misleading, having nothing to do with the weight of the tracks themselves. The term refers to the “light” passenger capacity of the individual cars. Also, while “heavy rail” transit cars would receive their power through a “third rail” built into the ground, light rail systems are powered through an overhead wire, much like the old fashioned trolleys that raa through Buffalo at the turn of the century. Flexible . The light rail system also offers more versatility than its counterpart. It can run above ground as well as below, and is capable of the slower speeds that the proposed Buffalo system will require. The transit system was originally proposed in the late 1960’s as a heavy rail system. But federal budget strains, which for a while threatened the existence of the route, forced a shift, to the less expensive light rail system. The six stations originally envisioned (the heavy rail system requires more space between stops for acceleration, and is capable of higher speeds), grew to 14 stations. The light rail system as proposed, would begin at the Main Street campus of SUNY Buffalo and would follow Main Street underground to Memorial Auditorium, a distance of 6.4 miles. It would travel underground for most of the route, surfacing between Tupper Street and the Auditorium, for a stretch of 1.23 miles. From Main Place Mall (Church Street) to Tupper, cars will be re-routed permanently. The system, would co-exist with a pedestrian walkway, lined with trees and benches. For the remaining 5.2 njiles, the route would travel underground. The route will not reach the Amherst Campus as originally planned, because funds could not be found for the additional 11 miles. Under the federal plan, however, the NFTA can apply {dr funding for the rest of the originally planned touted while the first, section is still being built. The NFTA is'also planning to build lines over unused, already existing railroad passages in the Town of Tonawanda. But the Amherst route maintains first priority, “because we always planned to go to the new campus,” said NFTA spokesman Schieber. Subsidies needed Schieber warned that the transit system will not be financially self-supportive. “People have the impression that a rapid transit system can be kept going through fares, and that fares will eventually pay for the entire system. This is a faosehood. Just like buses, rapid transit will have to operate on subsidies,” he related. ‘The subsidies won’t be as great as those needed for buses, though. If you figure that each transit car holds ISO people, then four cars together will hold 600 people, with only one driver. Buses hold only forty people with one operator. As you can see, the operating and maintenance costs will be much lower than the comparable costs for buses. But, of course, you don’t have the flexibility of buses, in that you can’t go everywhere,” he continued. One further advantage of the light rail system is its many stations, which can each be visited by several “feeder buses.” These buses will enable a resident living anywehre in the city to get to a'station. Schieber was optimistic about rapid transit’s future in Buffalo. “Besides thinking of the number of jobs the transit system will create, the system will be good for the city in the long run,” he said. “If you look at an aerial map of Toronto, you’ll notice that all the businesses and all the magnificent highrise buildings are clustered around the stations following subway lines,” Schieber continued. “If that occured in Buffalo, and we think it will, it will bring a lot of people back into the city and generate a tremendous real estate boom, as well as create a greater tax base for the city.” �V* 1 ■ - 1; • .?• hildren “For every prescription drug, there are (at least) one or two over the counter drugs,” Yaffe explained. Many of these drugs, he went on, such as sedatives, diuretics antihistimines, and antacids, are for nsed symptomatic relief. Possible malformations Yaffe Unfortunately, remarked, it takes a great number of infants showing ah abnormality as a result of prenatal ingestion of a drug for the adverse effects of that drug to be properly recognized. Such was the case with thalidomide, whose potential creating malformations, for malformed or missing limbs in newborns was only recognized after years of use and a disturbingly high number of stricken infants. Yaffe further noted that drugs taken for physical relief can cause long term functional and developmental defects in children. These long term effects can be even more severe and difficult to correct than shorter term defects. Valium, for example, a drug used to lessen the stress of delivery, can alter the infant’s body temperature, which, unless corrected quickly and properly can affect the child’s brain. Lithium, Yaffe continued, generally used in the treatment of mental illness, can retard the mental development of the infant.

Roswell Park DNA research lab set to be built New York students help A group of five researchers at Roswell Park Memorial Institute has recently received federal funding to build a laboratory facility for recombinant DNA experimentation. This funding consists of $600,000 granted by* the National Institutes of Health (NIH), a division of the Department of HEW. An additional $200,000 is anticipated to come from the New York State Department of Health. The facility’s construction will be completed in one year. Recombinant DNA experiments involve the combination of genome (DNA) segments from two different species, achieved by splicing the pieces together using various enzymes. Deoxyribonucleic acid, DNA, is the class of molecule which blueprints the biological potential of virtually all organisms and which also controls the specific execution of that p otential during the life of the organism. After a recombinant gehome is constructed, it is inserted into a simple organism, such as E.coli bacteria. Upon entering the organism, the recombinant DNA can replicate and perform other genome functions. This system thereby provides a mechanism which is capable of producing large quantities of a particular DNA sequence, or which can produce large quantities qf a particular DNA coded protein or allow the behavior of the DNA sequence to be studied in a simplified environment. Exoli, a bacteria vital to the function of the digestive tract of humans and many other animals, has been extensively characterized and therefore provides an expellent backdrop for manipulation of recombinant DNA. The techniques of constructing and utilizing recombinant DNA are of recent origin. Since this work has only been carried out ih the past few years, its full range of applications has yet to be reached. Dr. Ken Paigcn, Chairman of the Roswell Molecular Biology Department and one of the recombinant DNA researchers, voices the opinion of many other biologists when he says, “The benefits M recombinant DNA research cannot be estimated.” Paigen cites the potential for studying the genetic causes of cancer and congenital birth defects and the possibility of constructing crop strains that can fix nitrogen. Nitrogen fixation is a process which converts atmospheric nitrogen into soil fertilizing nitrates. Additionally, there is the potential to create bacteria which can mass produce pharmaceutically useful proteins, such as insulin. A few weeks ago a group of scientists at the University of California at San Francisco announced that it had succeeded in inserting a rat insulin gene into an E.coli plasmid, which is the first step in achieving bacterial insulin production Numerous scientists, however, have also recognized potential risks involved in these experiments. Uncertainty concerning the effects of inserting foreign genomes into'a novel environment and the ubiquitous nature of E.coli has precipitated a controversy over the performance of recombinant DNA experiments. This controversy has thrust the recombinant DNA issues into a public decision making arena, first in the field of biology.. Biological havoc Concern over the safety of recombinant DNA work pivots about the fear that these experiments could produce dangerously altered bacteria which would escape laboratories and wreck biological havoc upon the world. This point has been countered by the contention that the chance of that oCcuring is quite low. Paigen also points out that in the total human population, a small but significant number of natural integrations of human DNA into E.coli probably is continually occuring. The debated safety of recombinant DNA experiments resulted in a voluntary moritorium called on 'all such research in July 1974.

Waihrib termed this year’s near 50 percent registration rate “fantastic” and was hopeful for even more success in the coming weeks. NYPIRG was heartened by the recent report that student voters from New York State helped push Jimmy Carter over the top in November’s Presidential election. If students in New York hadn’t voted, die report stated, Gerald Ford would have been the victor. NYPIRG is now trying to help pass legislation which would allow students to vote in their school’s district, rather than by absentee ballots. In addition to its vot?r registration efforts, NYPIRG is also conducting a study of banks in the Buffalo area. Lew Rose of NYPIRG is spearheading the study which is attempting to give students a guide to banking facilities in die area. According to Wainrib, NYPIRG is trying to give students a “voice and a choice” and let students know what services are available. The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) has successfully registered 111 of 230 freshmen at die first two freshman Orientations to vote in this November’s elections. This, according to NYPIRG Staff Project Coordinator Rob Wainrib, is the highest success rate in this endeavor that this University has freshmen arriving for Orientation receive registration material in packets which also contain pertinent information concerning the University.

Pried S5E«o) Albany have produced a bill that reduces the possession of 25 grams, about seven-eighths of an ounce, of pot to one similar to a traffic offense, with fines of $100 to $250 but no criminal records or jail terms until the third offense. Much credit for passage of the bill must be given to NYPIRG, which for three years has maintained the only full-time marijuana lobby in Albany. NYPIRG consists mostly of college students and as such was rightfully the most concerned lobby in Albany, because college students smoke at least ten times as much pot as any other group-of people in the state. S|p rejoice, rejoice, you have no choice. This bill is as inadequate in substance as it is timely and welcome in appearance. Yes, roll up a nice thin joint of good gold, but smoke it in your room, and, by all means, smoke it by yourself. If caught toking with a friend, you may find yourself facing three months in jail, because the act of passing a jomt is considered a "gift," and no longer mere "simple possession." i Granted, three months is a considerable reduction from Rockefeller's maximum of 15 years, but any such "gift" clause is idiotic and should be removed from the bill. If one considers smoking at all, it is certainly as natural to smoke with a friend as it is to smoke alone. The new bill also prohibits smoking in public places such as beaches, parks. Main Street or the fountain area in back of Squire Hail. Public display is still punishable by up to three months In jail, which is not only idiotic but socially unrealistic. There is no reason why someone who feels comfortable about smoking pot in his house and who does not feel he is destrqying his brain cells by doing so should feel any differently about performing the same act with his friends at a beach, under a tree in a park or in the fountain area for that matter. Those who have no desire to smoke are r '' still free not to. f W The new law is also vague, at jeast untiNegal precedents have been established (in other words, until people have been tried under it, which should happen soon). What if, during the course of a routine pull-over for a license check, a joint is found on the floor of the back seat of the car. Is that "private possession" or "public display"? The vehicle is privately owned, but traveling on public roads. What effect will the new taw have on the.person going to Bay Beach in Canada and caught with two joints in his pocket by the American border patrol? Can his car still be searched and impounded, even for a simple misdemeanor charge? Or, is that still a simple misdemeanor? Be careful smoking, especially in these next few months, when confusion about the law is bound to develop. If the man can no longer arrest you for "simple possession," he will be told to try his hardest to do you in on some other, related charge. Oh, and the next time you buy an ounce of pot (if you feel so inclined) weigh it. This new law could start a trend which would shortchange everyone out of the bottom of the bag. v, •’ * ■ - The Spectrum Vol. 28, No. 4 Friday, 8 July 1977 Editor-in-Chief — Brett Kline Managing Editor Laura Bartlett Managing Editor John H.

Six students now sit on the Association (FSA). the twelve member board. Previously, the board included only two student representatives. Two advisory committees for the Bookstore and Food Service were the other sources of student input. Four representatives from the Student Association (SA. Dennis Black, Andy Lalonde. Dan Kinley, and Alexandra Kukan), one from the Graduate Student Association (GSA) Steve Cohen, and one from Millard Fillmore College (MFC), Carol Block are tho.*summer members. In September, a new Board will be appointed with Lalonde remaining as chairman. FSA operates various University services including Food and Vending Service, the Bookstore, Check Cashing, the Ticket Office in Squire Hall, and linen services. Operating on a non-profit basis, the corporation tries to maintain low cost services for students and faculty. FSA receives no outside funding, relying only on income generated by its services. Hence, estimates fnust be made to maintain operating guidelines. For instance, Food Service operates on a 10 j>ercent “missed meal” estimate in order to keep costs down. This usually accurate system, however, was upset by last winter’s blizzard when the normal 10 percent margin was dramatically reduced causing a shortage.

In the original production, since the Vietnam war was on, there was a lot of reference to that situation, which we've removed. Bura lot of those emotions are still present in youth, despite the fact that they're no longer marching." - New score The play is also being brought up to date by the replacement of its original score, by Hair composer Galt McDermot, with a new one by Ray Leslee, who has provided scores for many previous SUNYAB . productions. "McOermont's score was a 60's score, while Ray's draws on today's jazz, rock, and a lot of the current trends in music." Elkin hopes that this summer Shakespeare will renew the "communal spirit" engendered by last year's The Winter's Tale, the first production of the program. 'There were any number of problems weather, vandalism, wondering whether the stage would be there when we arrived. On the other hand, what happened was so wonderfully different from what we think of as 'going to the theatre.'

They invariably describe production (largely attributable to 'Phillips himself), which, as I see it, him as an "actor's director." This is in one respect quite surprising, since his productions are usually characterized by such imaginative intelligent and over-all interpretations that one would think it had been necessary to force the individual acton to submit ip Kis general design. That he can both provide the intelligent support and guidance an actor needs and at the same time produce an extraordinarily subtle and coherent interpretation of a play in its entirety that he can, in other words, be both an actor's director and an author's director is a remarkable achievement. However, in the current production of Richard Hi he does not do both. The actor's director in him overshadows the author's director. The performances are excellent, and die staging is sure and intelligent, but the total experience of this Richard III is not the sort of fascinating and complete vision of the play to which we have become accustomed from him. has two primary characteristics: a thorough understanding of the stage-space, so that Stratford's bare platform can affectively become, through the use of lighting and blocking, a wide variety of different psychic spaces, as well as physical places; and a kind of acting that Is neither purely naturalistic nor stylized, but something in- between which can therefore move freely back and forth from the formalistic aspects of a Shakespearean play to its more naturalistic qualities, Both of these characteristics are .exemplified fully in Phillips' Richard III, and the production is a intelligent consistent and rendering of the play. But It Is not an especially interesting one. Not, at least, in comparison with Phillips' previous work (notably Maasura for Maasura, Antony and Cleopatra, and Midsummer Night's Dream), Phillips and Brian Bedford (who plays Richard) seem to have sought deliberately to tone down play's the self-conscious Stratford style theatricality, just that quality Phillips On the positive side, this which has most is production thoroughly emphasized in odier productions, ' - - Page six The Spectrum Friday, 8 July 1977 . .

The letters VSOP stand for a "Very Special One-time Performance," vritich actually took place last summer at the Newport-New York Jazz Festival, and from which blossomed a live album and now, a year later, a tour. The most exciting aspect of tonight's concert is easily the members of the band, who are some of the most influential exponents of the past two decades of modern jazz. When Herbie Hancock, Freddie Hubbard, Ron Carter, Wayne Shorter and Tony Williams step on stage together, the sounds they produce together will echo what was the modern mainstream of jazz and what is still best and brightest in contemporary improvisations! music. All of them but trumpeter Hubbard played together in the Miles Davis Quintet of the mid-1960's. Since then all of them have recorded with Hgbbard. Although all currently lead or are involved with bands that play "fusion" or "jazz-rock." this concert wilt feature the acoustic straight "improv." jazz that pipneerad their individual careers. Herbie Hancock, the keyboard player and the group's nominal leader, is now famous for the funky, electronic jazz that sent his album. Headhunters, into the pop top-ten a few years ago. Yet a quick earful of the music he recorded with Miles in the early sixties and with his own band a few years later would shock the listener attuned only to the funk. John Hunt will be speaking with Hancock at 3:30 this afternoon on WBFO, 88.7 FM. Puts fusion to shame Freddie Hubbard entered the trumpet funk world with his album. High Energy released a week before his appearance in Clark Gym here almost three years ago. His albums released before that, which are many in number and include the monumental Clay, Red prominently display his incandescent tone and qualify him as a legitimate heir to the thrones of Louis Armstrong, Roy Eldridge, Dizzie Gillespie, Clifford Borwn, and of course. Miles Davis. Since leaving the Miles Davis Quintet in 1969, RoaCarter has become the world's most in-demand freelance acoustic bassist.

There was a time (about two, three years ago) when there was no one Loggins and Messina would open for, except maybe Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, if that opportunity ever arose. Certainly it was not forseeable in '75 when Fleetwood Mac opened for Loggins and Messina's fall tour that the two bands' names would appear in reverse order on the marquee two years later. But here it is, Fleetwood Mac is one of the three biggest selling acts America has come up with (the other two the Eagles and Stevie being Wonder), and Kenny Loggins is out warming up the crowds for them. is Loggins stage, On reminiscent of Paul McCartney, finger stabbing the air in between chords, and exhibiting severe hyperactivity while the band does its instrumental break. This is an aspect unchanged from Loggins and Messina's show: Messina poker-faced and bent over his Telecaster, white Loggins ran to and from the audience, enticing them to their feet. Loggins includes some standards from that time in his set, predictably "Danny's Song" and "House at Pooh- Comer." But the new material is up-tempo and fresh, and the crowd is as pleased with "Why Do People Lie" and "I Believe In Love" as they are with the "Vahevala" encore. L&M alumnus Jon Clarke is still with Kenny, and his recorders (two at a impressive very time coordination) are sweet and high. There is also a backup vocalist in the band that serves only that purpose. When asked about how the band was formed, Loggins replied, "The same old way. A lot of time and a lot of auditions." No doubt it was strange after years of having a band that knew exactly what each member needed and what was needed from each musician. But Loggins is enjoying the experience. It must be remembered that he originally intended for Jim Messina only to sitting be He's also in. concentrating on perfecting the stage show enough to start work on another record. He says: "All the material you see tonight represents my past. The sooner I can perfect it on this level until the point where I am satisfied, then I can get on with the future." The band now, featuring lead guitar, drums, bass, keyboards, and two horn players is Loggins' first solo band, but he concedes that it isn't exactly what he would have done if Messina hadn't become a more permanent cronie. 'Things change. This is what I want to do now. This isn't exactly what I would have done then." - what I learned from my experiences than for hare. Also, I wrote that tong with the piano player, so there was no real need for me to play guitar on that number." One of the most important factors when an artist markets his product is the quality of production. Jim Messina, a wizard of the boards (history: Messina produced the Buffalo Springfield at 19) was both an advantage and disadvantage for Loggins in the beginning. Says ha: "An artist as producer tends to take his own ideas and mold them into what he thinks they should sound like. Also, it was a duo, so I couldn't give everything that I wanted to." Now with producers Phil Ram one and Bob James, Loggins can expand with the freedom of not having to worry what the finished mix will be like. When Fleetwood Mac booked this tour, they heard Kenny was available and gave him a call. Loggins says that they're old friends. We're still in the middle of our conversation when the first chords of "Say You Love Me" can be heard through the dressing room halls. Loggins leaned his ear in the direction of the music. You could hear the crowd dissolving into hysteria. It seems Loggins has primed this crowd just right. And for an artist facing the second uphill climb of his career, ho does a tremendous job. One thing that Loggins never did while with his former act was sing without a guitar in hand, That is always a facet of performing that gives the artist a lot of freedom on stage. The circumstances behind this are unusual: cut my hand "I (revealing a rather large scar to illustrate), so I spent most of 1976 learning how to work a mike without a guitar.

Nazareth, "This Flight Tonight" (A&M) The fact that Nazareth would cover anything by Joni Mitchell is farfetched, to say the least, but releasing it as a single is unbelievable. That they have failed in their attempt, however, is to be expected. In tailoring it for rock music, Nazareth has ignored or eliminated the essence of "This Flight Tonight." The nervous, uncertain delivery of Joni Mitchell, so well complemented by the original sparse arrangement, is gone. In its place are the typical, cocksure vocals -nd the solid, but all too loud, background music. It simply does not work. Lenny Whit*-, "Sweet Dreamt" (Nemperor) This jezz song is very appropriately entitled. From the delicate interplay between the electric piano, guitar and percussion in the opening bars, to the final piano notes, an atmosphere of dreaminess but not somnambulence is created and maintained. The effect is further strengthened by sultry vocals and lyrics like these: - — Concerts in July Buddy Rich V.S.O.P. Danny O'Keefe . .

Even when alone with the audience, Bedford's Richard seems to possess very little self-knowledge, is much the same vicious, small-minded schemer, the "bunch-back'd toad" the mourning Queens perceive him to be. This Richard is less a brilliantly active villian than a skulking opportunist. And considered, in purely realisitc terms, this makes sense. By the end, Richard has been reduced to a pathetic. conscience-ridden man, and it is difficult to square this in terms of strict character consistency with the man who spoke the opening soliloquy, with its total self-awareness and rejection of moral codes. It seems to me that Bedford has read the character backward from the end, and toned down the confident self-aware irony at the start in order to be psychologically consistent with this final pitiful figure. The character is therefore uniform and Bedford's performance as this uniformly loathsome man is first-rate. But I do not understand why it was considered necessary to treat Richard in such a naturalistic way, why the theatrically self-conscious qualities were blurred. It is not precisely accurate to say that Richard is self-aware at the beginning and degenerates into self-delusion at the end. Rather, his dramatic status changes. At first he is in the theater with us, directing the play. By.the end, he has been absorbed back into the play, back into history. An actor can, as Brian Bedford does, read this change simply in terms of Richard's "character." But to do so sacrifices the play's metadrama, Century Kleinhans Niagara Falls Convention Center CNE Stadium, Toronto Kleinhans —continued from page 6— • • • its basic opposition of two different modes of awareness.

"Natural Avenge" is still another in. a long line of reasons for the Moody Blues to get back together again. The whole of the Moodies is much greater than the sum of their parts. Carpenters, "All You Get From Love Is A Love Song" (A&M) The greatest talent of the Carpenters has always been their ability to combinl pop and MOR arrangements without having them become too overbearing. Their track record has Jifcen remarkably consistent, although they have had a few failures along the way. This single is one of them. The keyword here is "slick." It accurately describes the background music, which would sound more appropriate for Frank Sinatra or Johnny Mathis in other words, Las Vegas music. The vocals and harmonies are fine,' and the song itself is fairly well written. Other than this, however, it has very little to recommend. - Rick Wakeman, "White Rock" (A&M) After the dismal failure of No Earthly Connection, Wakeman promised that his next effort would Le more rock oriented. On "White Rock," he has lived up to his promise; now, he should concentrate on the quality of his work. "White Rock" is very reminiscent almost too reminiscent of early ELP. Its arrangement is simple (a couple of synthesizers and some percussion), but it is immediately recognizable as something by Wakeman because of his playing. Despite his many years of schooling, Rick still cannot compose for a synthesizer. What he does is simply run up and down the keyboard sometimes quickly, sometimes gradually, but never creatively. He has been doing this since Journey to the Center of the Earth, and it has become predictable and annoying. -Eugene Zielinski — John Lodge, "Natural Avenue" (London) Ostensibly a rock song, "Natural Avenue" is in trouble from its first few opening bars, where a somewhat off-key chorus herajds the many problems to come. Among these are the meaningless lyrics and simplistic melody lines that are too monotonous to sustain interest. Add to this an arrangement which is duttered but still inadequate, and the result is one of the worst songs that Lodge has written.

Listen Friend is a book of poems and drawings by Mike Finn, who will be familiar to some through his readings at and around this University.

Yet what has Essence echoes and echoes through time. One bird call doesn't make us want to stop listening to theirsong. And one of the major tragedies to affect modern humanity seems to me to be this great loss of Gratitude; a sanctity born of experience, easy and natural, and at once profound. For with this loss have come ten thousand self-effacing and superficial hungers that can never be appeased. Readers accustomed to the obscurity, the reluctance to draw conclusions, and the tangled emotions in much contemporary poetry likely are tb feel by embarrassed the simple directness of such statements. So many poets find they cannot even use a word such as "love" or "gratitude" without either feeling a twinge of embarrassment, or giving it an ironic turn. They are more comfortable rendering the most complicated and elusive emotions that lie on the very border of what can be said. In our constaolr ..guest for novgUtips, these basics are likely to be overlooked, partly because they are almost too easily expressed.

There's no reason for the alarm: it was still rambling over the greensward of Toronto’s Center Island, where the ducks and the seagulls wander in from the surrounding lake. It was still three days of nonrushing music, with seven continuous stages running from the late morning until 8:30, which gets everyone home at, a reasonable hour while also saving on lighting energy. Several years ago Mariposa the usual folkfest dumped procedure of importing a horde of the most popular folkies of the moment In favor of an emphasis lesser-known musicians, on Canadian especially ones. (Intersting to hole, in this light, that Mariposa was an important first step in the careers of Kate and Anna McGarriglp scheduled this year, but absent, rumor being that Anna was pregnant and Leon Redbone.) But there have never been as few "contemporary" folkies at Mariposfe as there were last weekend: David Bromberg (the McGarrigles' replacement), David Amram, Paul Siebel of "Louise" fame, and Canadian songwriter Stan Rogers were about it. Instead, there were more craftspeople, mbch more dance, and above all much more of both the younger musicians working in established folk music the traditions and the older ones who are their fountainheads. It was a big gamble for the Festival, and I think it paid off, in sharing knowledge, in establishing a real feeling of continuity over the years, certainly in a great deal of fine music. — — Rosin stars It's common practice to see people lugging guitars around at every folkfest, but this year there were more fiddles than guitars. And if the Festival had a musical focus, it was the fiddle workshop. with a really stellar lineup. There was old-time country's Tommy Jarrell, who I can only describe as eighty years young, still swinging a bow with the best. Aly Bain, of the Shetland Islands (and the Boys of the Lough), was there with his teacher, Tom Anderson, a man of great humility, knowledge, and skill. ("It's interesting to see them together," Utah Phillips remarked; "Aly's such a hot-shit fiddler, and Tom's always telling him, 'Slow down, Aly, you're losing it'." Two different French cultures were mirrored in Quebec's Louis Boudreault and Cajuns Dewey and Will Balfa. Oh yes, the greatest fiddler in the world was also there. Taciturn Jean Carignan had to be coaxed into playing two breathtaking tunes that all but stole the show from this very fast company. I remember Tom Anderson intently watching Carignan and Carignan studying Anderson just as closely. And it ended with almost a dozen fiddlers, speaking some four different languages, together on the tune every fiddler knows, "Soldier's Joy." "It's this kind of thing," Anderson said afterwards, "that can save this world from a holocaust." For sheer flukiness, my award goes to the workshop titled "Something In Common," with a pair to have unlikely very blue-eyed anything in common bluesman John Hammond and British singer Lou Killen. Unlikely unless you know that Killen, before he took up balladry and the concertina, was a glues singer himself. So Killen, Geordie accent and all, gave us Jimmie Rodgers' "T For Texas" .. . and Hammond parried with a Hank Williams tune I RH - — — — Momentous is you see, The word, spontaneity. With the bulk of the several throwing festival performers together onto a workshop and letting it go wherever it ends up, anything is likely to happen, and what does is usually delightful. It can be simply the contrasts in performers' styles, as in the acapella singing of Scotland's Norman Kennedy, Ireland's Kevin Mitchell, and England's Martin Wyndham-Read. It can be a blues songswap between harmonica hound Peg Leg Sam and Roy Bookbinder, an unexpected guest who picks a tasty guitar. Or Mike Seeger, about to solo oh guitar and reed panpipes, stops, listening to Leonard Emmanuel on another stage, lets loose with a holler meant to span the North Carolina mountains, and which pricks up ears all over the grounds. Despite the absence of the McGarrigles, and several other scheduled female performers, women's voices were hardly absent. Among the most notable were those of Celtic singer Margaret Christl; Lydia Mendoza, who's sung the music of Mexico for almost half a century; and Vera Johnson, another drop-in guest who was belting out her songs under a tree when she wasn't on stage. The crafts this year were the best I've seen at Mariposa, and the with instruments, leatherwork, weaving, looms beneath the trees, and quilts and hooked rugs hanging from the branches. There was the chip of a music here, too woodcutter's chisel blending in rhythm with the driving beat of most diverse, jewelry, — two drummers. The clouds gonna roll away The biggest problem was the weather; there was no replay of last year's Saturday cloudburst, but this year's Saturday seesawed between drizzle and cheers from the crowds when the sun peeked out. But the music accommodated this, too. The heaviest rain of the day merely accentuated Utah Phillips' tale of "railroad nights huddling in the boxcar from the rain." By the time Archie Fisher was singing, "Someone bless these seeds I sow ... till the rain comes tumbling down," the clouds were breaking. Dance has been used for centuries to bend the weather to people's will, and it surely worked on sunny, hot Sunday. All weekend, in fact, there was constantly dancing English Morris dancers, clog dance from Irish Quebec to Appalachia, — step-dance, square dancing ... (pianist Gilles Losier deserves mention for both his constantly reliable backup of a mind-boggling array of instrumentalists and for for the translating many French-speaking performers). For organized of. less those inclinations, there was ample opportunity to just shake it on out, to the blues harp of Alain' Lam ontagne, dancing in his chair as he played, and the Caribbean sounds of Oick Smith's steel drum band Syncona. Some of the people I spoke to were upset by the relative absence others of singer-songwriters, wanted more country music, more worn ansong. But there was, for me, a very welcome absence from Mariposa this year: with so much traditional music, the “music business" was almost nowhere to be seen. It was the folkiest festival I'm evety likely to see, and it was as refreshing as a sip of spring water after years of faucets. It was probably said best by Dan Womack, who painted the guitar and piano the deepest shade of - blue: "Now, I don't know how you like me just as you don'tknow how I like you but to me, this is one of the garden spots in the whole world." —Bill Mifaschietlo - — Photos by David Conant Prodigal Sun Friday, 8 July 1977 The Spectrum Page nine . . wm �IS HfHHi vx m • mb** , Mighty Jo* Young « • i J t-r m ■ writers -'X' 'fTsl!, " - V-i ' ;.■ % vl%, V % of Firstborn and The � of three women Department on residence July ot her work Room of Belle Starr hosts the blues ' ' mm Marge Piercy 1-6).

Films parallel the music; the motions of a man, a loner, a stranger, a legend, a martyr... he shines! The sights and sounds intensify, distorting and defying the senses, welcoming you to the machine, beckoning you to . , The blues is a paradoxal music in that it is a very traditional music and yet the strongest blues performances are strikingly individualistic. Mighty Joe Young, one of Chicago's premier guitarists and singers proved.that during his recent visit to the Belle Starr in Golden. Joe sings his series of Chicago standards and his own tunes, in a manner reminiscent of Bobby Bland though less forcefully. While his guitar playing carries the mark of B.B. King, it is characterized by fluency and imagination. Ken Dajdak provides strong support on keyboards and his own vocals are forceful and natural. Cornelius Boyson's bass and Willie Hayes' drums provide a strong rhythmic foundation on which Joe Young provides assured treatments of "I Wonder Why" or "The Things I Used to Do." At my request he does a nice version of Fenton Robinson's "Somebody Loan Me a Dime" which he recorded for his first album on Delmark about eight years ago. Another request brings forth a fine version of "The Thrill is Gone" which is marked by Joe's smooth singing and cutting guitar. Cash and Tyrone Davis. Willie Dixon, Bob Koester and Bruce Iglauer used Joe on numerous blues sessions including recordings by the late Magic Sam, Fenton Robinson, Otis Rush, Jimmy Dawkins. Koko Taylor and Willie Dixon himself. Hold the horns Joe used to play with horns, and when I had seen him last in Kent, Ohio in 1971 he had a bigger band. I asked if he dropped the horns because of the expenses of a larger band. He replied it wasn t the cost. "Back at that time, the kids would all figure that when they saw a supposed to be blues band with horns, they figured a band should have a harmonica. But it ain't like that, especially the type of blues that I was into. And I would get a lot of bad write-ups about the horns. The rhythm section^was always ok but the horns they just didn't understand. So I cut the horns out later and formed a good tight rhythm section. I've been with that ever since." I asked Joe about B.B. King's recent records and Johnny "Guitar" Watson. We talked about the lack of blues on the radio (especially black radio Blues moves stations). Young blacks don't listen to blues because It has been a long road for Joe to Buffalo. This they aren't exposed to it on the radio. This is partly was his first appearance in the Buffalo area. Born in since much blues is oh small labels. Joe recognizes Louisiana, Joe moved to Milwaukee with his family that "Small labels don't get distribution or radio at a very young age. It was there he started playing play." The only music soul programmed stations guitar. While there was always a guitar around his play is that of big soul artists.

The only really new music on simple Little Queen is Nancy's piece, "Treat Me Well," a soft and ballad of love’s questionable future. Is she speaking her mind or Her Heart. Next album will tell the gypsy's creative fortune. True innovation is not merely the spark of afterglow with the English folk album of June Tabor and Maddy Prior entitled Silly Sisters. Seeming a bit more middle class, and therefore, more at home with the essence of spritely, chipper folk ballads than Kate and Anna McGarrigle, the Silly Sisters do not write songs. The two interpret with glad voice, traditional English folk songs. Eager to leam, the artists travel from town to town collecting the lore of folk by talking to village inhabitants. The most startling song Tabor and Prior come upon may be the pleading and lamenting of "My Husband's Got No Courage In Him:" Every night when / goes to bed / He and throw my lag right o'er him And my hand I clap between his thighs But I can't put any courage in him / wish my husband he was dead. The acapella vocals in the ballad are haunting, getting the meaning of unfulfillment across easily. To other songs like "Game of Cards" and "The Seven Wonders" are added melodeons, hurdy gurdy's, bouzoukis, bonbards and whistles. So the feelings one achieves is the familiar tone of living happily ever after. And it is foreign as Cockney history. The bridge between the two is an open, honest, sharing heart given us by Maddy Prior and June Tabor. Here the heartbeats are lovebeats, living lifebeats; I never ask for more. Buddy Holly's heart swelled, rolling with rock. The rock was thrown at Denny Laine's and Paul McCartney's ears. When Holly died, everyone expired a little; but the heart tells a tale constant, beating eternal. Laine figured this sensation out and moved to recapture the man's spirit in Holly Days. Electronically rechanneled to simulate mono, Laine and producer McCartney recorded the collection of songs in a four-track studio. Showcased are the bluesy, folksy riffs that were so simple, yet so Mery rack musician has been influenced by Holly's songs, the tinny soundlof old 78's were reconceived as are even the skips and Holly Days' songs are enhanced by some fine arrangenSents. For instance, the "why do you skip when my baby "Heargbeat" is backed by a Latin-Carribean flavor. The kisses Linda/PauTharmonies of "It's So Easy/Listen To Me" lend a Wings flavor to Holly's songs. Adding a Chipmunk's-like overdub to 'Take Your Time" although at first distracting later adds a comedic flavor. There is no doubt that Laine's voice inflects as did Holly's. Laine's voice complements Holly's and Holly's Laine's. It's too bad they can't harmonize in this life; things were so much simpler in mono. If your heart bleeds for Wings or Holly, you know what to purchase for your collection. Did your heart ever desire Percy "ThriHs" Thrillington? I hesitate to explain... Thrillington is a muzak reproduction of McCartney's Ram album. Even as a novelty item, this tends to aggravate the very marrow of my bones. Because I know McCartney had something to do with this LP. And I can swear I hear Linda in the background with the sickening synch of MOR feeling. Maybe when I'm older I'll appreciate the strings and flutes on "Monkberry Moon Delight," but right now, the obtuse, abstruse ruse of Thrillington is enough to yield heart seizure.

The phrase “a need for This attitude is expressed in* centralized facilities” is the Campus Plan numerous times, particularly at odds with what was rhetorical and designed. The academic core of both in architectural terms. It surfaces the campus is structured around repeatedly throughout the design seven major facilities, each in plans for individual buildings, grouped around its own activity footpaths and roadways. The space. Student ativities, as concept of de-centralization, quite previously detailed, are hardly centralized, simply, dominates the design. but spread must Vice-President for Facilities Planning, John Telfcr, an expert in the field of campus planning, the use of the explained de-centralization concept “Part of it was sociological. We were going through very tumultuous times,” he observed, adding that there “may have been some over-reaction” on the part of planners to collegiate unrest here and across the nation. “Some of the decisions were made with the idea that things were easier to control when they were de-centralized,” Telfer said. 1 Split functions of Union The relative ease in controlling the student population may have been at the heart of the decision to split the functions of what was Norton Union (now Squire Hall) into six different buildings on the new campus. Each structure would contain some division of network student the of and services organizations currently housed in Squire, but not a large enough proportion to qualify the building as the Student Union. The importance of a student union on a college campus cannot be understated. Squire Hall is a classic example of an ingeniously located, fully functional student pulse center. Most pedestrian routes pass by, or directly through the union. It is easily identifiable as a symbol of the students, and appropriately houses all student activities and organizations. The same building was the scene of many strike meetings and demonstration gatherings in 1969 and 1970. Jerry Rubin spoke in its lounges; The Spectrum the radical voice on campus, eminated from its third floor offices. When demonstrators were chased by riot police for breaking windows in Hayes Hall, they fled to Norton, where other students helped battle the troopers. It is not unreasonable to conclude that, had there been no student union then, there would have been fewer considerably demonstrations and less violence. , Non-subs tan dated riiethoric Elimination of a student center is carefully disguised in The Campus Plan: student Although many be most can activity functions accommodated appropriately within individual colleges or academic facilities, there is still a need for centralized facilities, particularly for activities of interest to large or specialized groups. The plan goes on to state In addition, it is vital to have a common place which maximizes the opportunities for interaction and casual meetings between the various segments of the University community. lakeside could terrace where crowds conceivably gather. Significantly, the plaza is set at an elevation fifteen feet below the surrounding academic spine area. Hence, activities on the terrace, called the “dominant open space on campus,” would not be visible % ground-level occupants of the spine. The terrace is bordered on one side by the lake and on the remaining two sides by broad flights of fifteen-foot steps., throughout six buildings. There are three separate dining facilities, located at intervals along the 2000 foot academic spine, and at least five separate libraries in the plan. Administrative offices ace split between three structures. The Talbert-Capen-Norton complex is located in the center of the academic spine area and in that sense could be considered “centralized,” yet all the services located in the complex can be found in other areas of the campus. For example, 75 percent of the University library collection is slated to be housed outside the general library in Capen. Walking impractical The Campus Plan states, in an almost cautionary tone: The Plaza can be used far large gatherings of people, but should also have areas for small, informal groups. The Plaza is about a half-mile (twenty minutes walking time) from the major residential areas. Governors and Ellicolt... hardly a desirable of the crossroads of a University. The large scale of (he campus in general makes walking between many points impractical. An estimated third of normal pedestrian trips cannot be made within a ten minute class change. This necessitates, among other things, a shuttle bus in constant service around the perimeter of the academic spine. Thus a great deal of movement between buildings will be made by bus and will not require walking through any central area or “cross-roads.” This again differs radically from the'Main Street Campus. In addition, a large number of the buildings will be connected by enclosed bridges spanning the spine area on the second and third levels. It will not be necessary to descend to the ground level to walk from some areas of the campus to others. Nor will a student tend to spend leisure time (between classes lor example) in a centralized area such as a student union. Each of the seven major facilities will have its own activity space. The residential buildings will also have extensive activity, dining and study areas, and will, as such, be largely self-contained. \ Cross-roads not central After describing a "common which maximizes place opportunities for interaction” as being “vital,” the planners did little to carry out this thought. The Campus Plan features a location termed the “University Plaza,” supposedly the “dominant open Space on campus" and the focus of the “symbolic University.” It is also referred to as the “cross-roads of the campus.” In reality, the Plaza is only one of several partial “cross-roads” and by no means the most important. It is triangular in shape and bordered on one side by Lake LaSalle. Hence no pedestrian or other traffic can approach from the northeast. It is located on the eastern edge of the academic core, approximately 1200 feet from the Talbert-Capen-Norton complex. Thus the “centralized facilities” turn out to be nearly a quarter mile from the “cross-roads” of the campus. This is radically different from the Main Street Campus, where the focus of the University, the fountain area, is adjacent to the student center, Squire Hall. The Plaza area includes a large .

The groups left behind in Squire face an uncertain future: space for them exists only in blueprints for the three unbuilt structures, and lead time for their completion is at least five years. The de-centralization concept, while at times promoting the spontaniety of small groups, large-scale works against organization of students. It also cuts deeply into communication lines between various segments of the student population. Student organizations and services will be the fragmented throughout campus. There is an untold psychological barrier, particularly in the winter, to walking between buildings in order to communicate with a person face-to-face. Members of student groups will be forced to confront many such barriers under the Campus Plan.

At least 250 of those students have been attending this University. According to Ruth Falbo of the Office of Rehabilitation some of those students may find themselves three years through a degree program and unable to finish because of this assistance being lost, Falbo explained that the Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) and Basic Educational Opportunity Grant (BEOG) awards, will no longer be available. This money made it possible for many handicapped persons from families “with decent incomes” to attend a University who otherwise could not have afforded to do so. Even if a handicapped person’s family seems to be making a relatively high income, Falbo explained, the extra expenses of doctor and medication bills involved for a^ handicapped person consume a huge chunk of that income, often making higher education an impossibility without some additional financial assistance. Because of the income level, TAP and BEOG awards are often not enough. Weekend bus service is slated to begin this weekend on a two-week trial period to determine to what extent the buses are needed. Ron Stein, assistant to the President, noted that this move would throw the busing budget even further into debt, but that student arguments were valid and something had to be done. Stein attributed the initiation of Saturday and Sunday busing to the Friday. 24 June 1977 efforts of Student Association and University Union Activities Board. Roger McGill, director of Busing Services, was unsure what schedule would be used; but he said that there would probably be one bus running on either the regular A or B Weekday schedule. Crucial aid Bertha Cutcher ,of this University’s Office for the handicapped said the Office of Financial Aid has been notified that these additional students may be needing assistance in the Fall, but added that it is too early to tell how big the problem is, and how many students will need that additional money from somewhere in order to continue. Until all the students who had been receiving the aid are notified and the problem discussed with them, it is unknown how many would hot be able to return without some additional assistance. She did, however, y v estimate that about 40 percent will not be able to return in the Fall unless some tuition assistance replaces that of the Office of Rehabilitation. 1 Cutcher explained that her office, made possible by a government grant, o ftrs support services to the handicapped to help them “integrate into the mainstream of campus life,” and provided readers, note takers, and other assistants to over 100 handicapped students last year. These services will continue, she said, but her Office will be unable to offer any tuition assistance monies. - . . ' ' Still hope Both Cutcher and Falbo pointed out that there is still a chance the State Legislature will restore this program in its Supplemental Budget, which will be approved sometime this month, if enough support is shown for it. Local legislator Arthur Eve was cited as being sympathetic to the students’ plight, since his office has received numerous calls concerning the situation. However, he could not be reached for comment. Falbo added, however, that the cut appears quite definite, at least at the present time, since her office has already received its directives from Albany, and many students have already been contacted and interviewed. She said her office’s purpose is to provide training that will help in a handicapped person’s rehabilitation 2nd return to the working world, and this training often necessitates a college education. Her office is also able to provide some of the support services Cutcher mentioned, but she added that they do little good if tuition can’t be paid. The program’s total budget statewide was around $3 million, she said. Student organization space"" lacking at Amherst Campus by Jay Rosen and Mike Terpin A cloud of confusion surrounds the move of some student groups to the Amherst Campus. Neither University administrators nor students know exactly when the shift will be made, or what will happen to the organizations that must remain in Squire Hall because of lack of space at Amherst. Student organizations have been allocated square in space 29,500 feet of the Norton-Capen-Talbert complex, less than the area currently in use on the third floor of Squire. The Undergraduate, Graduate, and Millard Fillmore College student associations, along with the University Union Activities Board (UUAB) and Sub-Board I Inc. are slated to move into new offices sometime this summer. All other groups will remain in Squire for the present, although the School of Dentistry is eventually supposed to take over the building. Student space unbuilt Three of the six buildings scheduled to house student organizations have not been built and do not appear anywhere on the priority list for the restart of construction. Space for the groups left in Squire exists only in blueprints for the three unbuilt structures. Many hurdles Cutcher said she fears some of the students affected may not realize it until the Fall. Falbo pointed out, however, that the funding cut was effective immediately and extended to summer school assistance. Some students had already enrolled in summer school before the news came out, and are now faced with absorbing the costs without the financial assistance they anticipated. Cutcher feels that the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, which required Universities to provide equal opportunities for handicapped people, was actually being disregarded by this cut. She concluded that for many of the students affected, loans will be the only recourse. Falbo expressed deep concern for the students themselves, and said she hated to see assistance cut off to students who “have such hurdles physically and emotionally.” — Sub-Board has also been poorly informed its moving timetable. According to Treasurer Dennis Black, exact dates “depend on whom you talk to last We’ve been given about five different days. We can’t plan on it,” he said. With other organizations staying on Main Street, Black felt Sub-Board would be “caught between two concerning campuses.” Although Sub-Board is satisfied with its space, other groups are not. Ironically, Sub-Board’s rooms have been “donated” by the other four groups because they were left out of original plans. The Graduate Student Association felt its space was insufficient, and made its views known, according to a spokesman. Director of Squire Hall James Gruber claimed he hasn’t the “foggiest idea” about long term accommodations for student activities. As far as the School of Dentistry’s move to Squire is concerned, he said, “I don’t know when and 1 don’t know how.” Student focal point He said Squire Hall will continue to function in its present capacity. Features such as the Bowling Lanes, Browsing Library and recreational room will be kept as long as they are “financially feasible.” While explaining the lack of space on Amherst, Gruber observed that “Talbert Hall was originally to be the focal point for student government and UUAB. The other three buildings would be for student organizations. However it didn’t go * The five organizations shifting to Amherst will occupy the second level of Hall. However, serious problems with air conditioning throughout the complex have prevented occupancy by students TalberJ or administrators. (SA) Student Association Executive Vice-President Andy Lalonde described the current situation as “frustrating.” His organization was originally slated for a June II move, a date which has been changed several times. The current date is July 13, according to Lalonde. Timetable troubles He described the new offices as “cramped,” adding that many have no windows. “We don’t know what’s happening,” he said, “We can’t get anything too clear out of the administration.” according to blueprint.” Gruber did not feel student organizations have “squatter’s rights” to their present space in Squire Hall. “Placement of student organizations is not a de facto right,” he observed. “From a legalistic standpoint this is not true.” Besides the air conditioning difficulties, there are other problems with the new buildings. Contractors are now in the process of knowcking out recently plastered walls between classrooms. The rooms as planned were too small for current class sizes, which have been steadily increasing as faculty lines shrink. �¥■ F' » ben L y.

The next group, which he labeled the New Left or the Ultra Left, or “Maoists and Trotskyists." included Swee/y and Baron of the Journal Monthly Review, and Ceorge Novak of the Socialist Workers Party. Without offering many specific criticisms. Kuvakin dismissed them as not being Marxists.

He claimed that these external pressures have much to do with the Soviet Union's internal deformations. Kuvakin also pointed out that there was no model for the first socialist country to follow. our country.” he said, “people have a different psychology. We see ourselves as one big family. If we criticize some bureaucrats, we criticize to make positive change. We do not connect criticism with breaking the system;" In further explanation of the definition of Marxists. Kuvakin said people have to have the right position regarding the working class and peaceful co-existence to be Marxists. He was asked whether peaceful co-existence itself was not in conflict with Marxism, since only world socialism could benefit the Soviet and international proletariat. He was further asked if Soviet leadership needs peaceful co-existence to prevent revolutions in the West, which might have repereusions at home. Kuvakin answered that peaceful 'v'.o-exislence was in no way contradictory to class struggle. This reflects the feelings in the U.S.S.K. that revolution can not be exported and it can only happen as a result of internal developments, lie said. £. He was questioned about the Four Fssays on Philosophy by Mao-Tse-Tung. whether he saw them as having a Marxist content. This question brought this unsolicited but interesting response. "I do not consider Mao as a creative Marxist thinker or Stalin as a Marxist theoritician. I think Mao doesn't develop anything in theory and Stalin very simply over-simplified Marxist-Leninisl Theory." He said the Four Fssays were vulger but contained Marxist ideas. ov o A A A o K' <(, Work inside Marx criteria he' ttad"placed on the title. He was asked, ’How can you exclpdc StfrXte/Marcusse and Adorno from the realm of Marxism?"

Marxists are men and women who work inside Marx, not those who try to combine Marx and Freud, as did Marcuse and others of the Frankfort School." He was then asked if the dehumanization that Marx had defined as alienation, to he relieved by socialism, still existed in the Soviet Union. Kuvakin replied that alienation is a broad phenomenon still present in the Soviet labor process. Only a Communist society can overcome alienation, he said, implying that the Soviet Union has not yet reached the stage called Communism. Kuyakjn claimed that the USSR still has many problems, such as differences in pay scales. He felt that many of the problems were “Stalin's mistakes" and that many originated from the "international situation.'- A' <b 9 V** \ £ <b A £ <0 A <o * *.

They have come from poor and underprivileged Belfast homes to stay for six weeks with Western New York families. “This kind of experience is our only hope for peace,” said Paul Cameron, one of the chaperones for 80 Catholic and 80 Protestant children together for the first time in peaceful coexistence. Aged nine through eleven, the kids have known nothing but bombings and shootings all their lives; for it was nine years ago that the current Protestant/Catholic conflict surfaced in Northern Ireland. The Belfast Summer Relief Program Committee of Buffalo raised $60,000 for these children to have a vacation from terrorism, for them to interact with those of other religions and sec that they need, not fight. At this age, the children are ripe for such learning. “Negative attitudes have been ingrained by the time they reach the teen years,” said Cameron, a 23 year-old teacher who has ten of his students along on the trip. He volunteered to supervise when he heard that the summer of 1975 Buffalo program would be repeated and expanded to allow 100 more children to come. - - Improved relations “The headmaster is really keen on it,” said Paul, noting that there has been a very definite improvement in Protestant/Catholic neighborhood relations since the 1975 trip. He told of a meeting that was held with all the parents and children a week before departure: “At the end we all joined hands and sang, ‘Auld Lange Syne’,” Paul added that he had been no signs of animosity between the two religious groups on the plane ride over. Ca.neron’s chaperone duties consist of “getting them here and getting them back again.” He paid only for his passport. He plans to spend his first trip out of Great Britain “meeting as many people as I can” and visiting new places. He will find downtown Buffalo very different from the city center of Belfast “We automatically get searched when entering shops, restaurants and public buildings,” Cameron commented, adding that “incendiary devices” (bombs) are often found hidden in cassette tape boxes. British soldiers armed with machine guns are always on guard. “They stop your car, ask where you are going and for how long.” We have a fine selection of gifts! I'm located in that /new. white Apt.

Living in fear Paul lives in a fairly quiet area of East Belfast, but he can recall some car bombings in his neighborhood. “The cars were just sitting in driveways and they blew up,” he said matter-of-factly. The residents of his neighborhood keep their car and house doors locked at all times. “People are afraid to travel after dark,” continued Cameron. “Nobody goes into the city at night, and nothing there is open after six.” Local pubs have become the center of social life in Belfast and seem to be chief targets of the terrorists. Paul remembers a recent incident outside one of his neighborhood pubs. Several shots rang out from a passing car, killing an acquitance of his. Firing from a moving vehicle is a common technique since it allows for a quick get-away. “The police do quite a good job of catching up with them,” he reported. “At the beginning It was hard to get witnesses. People were afraid to speak up. But now that they are tired of it and want this whole thing finished, they are coming forward.” The average jail sentence for such a killing is 10 years, he said. Cameron felt that the Peace People mostly women who have — waged marches and rallies for peace have made great strides for peace in Northern Ireland. “But we’re still very much in a rut. Many people have become resigned to the terrorism.” Sudden senseless death has become commonplace, and Paul has heard that news reports don’t even mention single shootings anymore. “I can believe it,” he declared. ’ In the beginning, he noted, news stories have reported to what “side” the victims/criminals belonged. “People objected strongly to this. The important thing was that there had been a killing.” A protest was raised and the practice was discontinued. “The vast majority of our people are peaceful,” Cameron asserted. — Sex-Ed hours Summer hours for the Sexuality Education Center (Pregnancy Counseling and Birth Control Clinic) are as follows: Monday 1-4, Tuesday & Wednesday 1-9, Thursday 10-4 and Friday 12-2.

In deciding where to build it, they considered a waterfront site in the city of Buffalo. This project was to cost, oh, about $650 million. Neediest to say, it would have been a tremendous boon to "Bn ailing neighborhood. It was eventually to be the. largest employer in the area, hence the entire city envisioned sharing in the bonanza. Well, today the winds still sweep off the lake. There is nothing to block them. The neighborhood is still ailing. The bonanza never found a home in the city. The officials went searching for greener pastures. They found them. Across the tracks of rusted steel. . . Miles from the unending rows of two and a half story wood frame dwellings. . . Far away from the concrete caverns that haunt downtown and the painful shrieks of sirens that echo off their stone walls There lay lightly wooded fields of nothingness, nestled in a thriving upper-class suburb pleasantly named Amherst. A six-lane expressway ran nearby. A two-lane highway cut across one edge. Other than that, just verdant acres of trees and grass and a creek called Ellicott. Yes, and the nights were clear and quiet. Just remember this, my girl. When you look up in the sky - you can see the stars and still not see the light. The project these officials had in mind is now the Amherst Campus, it is still largely in the minds of officials and has yet to reach $650 million. Who can blame the men for placing the campus in Amherst? They had their crystal visions. They probably live in places with names ending in “Oaks” or “Acres,” just as the author of this column does. So it goes. Sixteen paragraphs have not changed the patient's status. The City is dying. Yet, there are oases of life, gleaming distinctly in contrast. Allentown is one, consisting mostly of Buffalo State students. The University area is another. The homes in the area are well kept. The storefronts are hardly splintered, but freshly painted and always occupied. The elms still arch over the city streets like two giant, comforting pairs of arms just barely touching their leaved fingers at the crest. The oasis blooms. The area has an appeal. Not the “country manor” appeal of the suburbs, but a distinctly urban appeal, unique in the city of Buffalo. Ever so slowly, the University itself will shift to Amherst. We will flee to the suburbs. The Main Street campus will be phased out. Health Sciences will remain, but the bulk of student and faculty activity will be centered in the wilderness of - Amherst. As the lifeblood of the University area, the students, is transfused, will the neighborhood that feeds off it now be left to decompose with the rest of Buffalo? It seems so inevitable. The stores will begin to board up, the student bars will close, the coops will leave. Your Host will survive. And then the campus community can sit back in their new pastoral home and watch the corpse rot. And then we can point proudly to the sign on Maple Road that reads: STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK AT BUFFALO. Just remember that Amherst is downWfhd ffom The City, and from the School on The Hill. If this column disturbs you, it is because its author is disturbed. If it does not disturb you, then that is surely why he is disturbed. So it goes. �t >u ;! 'Romeo and Juliet' Stratford production far from Spectacular Michael love go Altogether like*, a attempting to assimilate the formalistic aspects of Elizabethan theater into purely psychology, naturalistic productions flatten out both the poetry and the psychology. There is certainly a market for simple-minded romanticism (as the success of Love Story demonstrates), but Shakespeare was trying for a good deal more, even in this relatively early play by Wing ■Spectrum Aits Staff The Stratford Ontario Shakespeare Festival production of Romeo and Juliet, directed by David William, is a thoroughly conventional rendering of the play. It does a competent enough job (although far from a spectacular one) of providing what has come to be a predictable experience. But for those whose expectations have been raised by Robin Phillips' intelligent interpretations of Shakespeare in his two years as Artistic Director of the Festival, this Romeo is likely to prove a — Romeo and Juliet is a play with a great deal of self-conscious poeticizing. Parts of i. fWturirf 'dearth ' ' rt However, we now bring a very different set of expectations to the theater, formed by the naturalistic drama'of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. And it is this which most naturalistic bias to conventional productions of Shakespeare's play succumb. They try to treat even the most formal poetic passages as if they were the drdlnary speech of breathless in the current young lovers. The result Stratford production, as in Franco Zefferelli's gauzy film of a few years ago is to reduce the play to. the level of a rather simple-minded romanticism.

Denis de Rougemont and others have argued, ultimately leads toward (and, in fact, desires) death, it seems to me that a production could make effective theatrical use of the contrast and alternation of these two worlds, and that such a production would come closer to embodying the full complexity of Shakespeare's play. Romeo and Juliet is self-consciously concerned with language; in large measure, it is a play about Romeo's name. My ideal performance would convey a sense of language having a life of its own, independent from action and "character." Such a performance might startle summer vacationers and those for whom this play has become a comfortable romantic ciiche.

He treats his lines as so many physical sounds he must utter, not as if he understood what they meant. Monette has been quite good In parts like Lucio in Measure for Measure and Pasolles in AH's Well That Ends I-Well, which call for little psychological complexity but considerable comic dexterity. He seems, however, to be out of his depth in tragedy. Marti Maraden, on the other hand, is excellent as Juliet. Her youth, energy, and wide-eyed but intelligent love are the strongest forces in this production. An equally good performance is given by Nicholas Pennell as Mercutio, rather more sharp and angry than the character is usually played, but effective - disappointment. it, to be sure, are very nattjtfali&ic, notably the characters of the Nurie and Mercutidt, But the scenes bdwecii the two young lovers are largely carried pi} Ip formal verse. They virtually speak sonnets to and about one another. In the 16th century theater, this sort of overt artifice was the rule rather than the exception, and would no more have disturbed Elizabethan spectators than spooky mood music in a horror film disturbs a modern audience. individual performers are quite good (especially Pamela Hyatt as a bitchy Lady Capulet, and Gregory Wanless as a sympathetic Benvolio), there seems to be a general assumption that more physical action and higher volume equal more emotion. This mars the otherwise fine performance of Florence Paterson as the Nurse, and infuses the production as a whole with an overabundance of frenzied and wearying activity. Still, there is not much to ripple our calm mental pools in this production, and the hustle and bustle naturally are no doubt there to signify Moving ...?

Why, inside of an hour Gould would have started a poker game in the Mess tent, Redford would be posing for the photosection of Gentlemen's Khaki, and Hackman would be asking confused Germans if they'd picked ever their feet in Poughkeepsie. Though lacking the dimension Hollywood never has managed to give WWII enemy officers, the Germans still assume both more dimension than our boys at the front, due largely to the mobility shown by both Hardy Kruger, as a grimly efficient tank commander, and Maximilian Schell, the chivalrous defeater of the siege of Arnhem the "bridge too far" which a skeleton force of British soldiers were unable to hold.

The price is a $2.00 drink fee the drink usually being the size of a Dixie — cup, with waitresses asking fgr fees (sternly, in one case) right in the middle of the show. No respect, and before I go on, this is another point to think about, the subject of low prices. Sure, two, three and five dollars are a low price in comparison to New York City, but New York City has a larger populace, with more people who can afford these prices and more. In New York City, there is much more room for the music (to grow or to be lost I didn't say NYC was heaven.). Does Buffalo allow breathing space for diversity to capitalize on their talent? If not, are prices of $4.00 and more justifiable (as was asked by the Association for Jazz Performance when Joe Ford played at the Tralfalmadore last week (over a week ago now)). Four dollars, when Joe, Sabu, Nasara Abadey, Tommy Schufnman hardly even made the tip. Some iceberg? Located in the Statler are the headquarters of Improv Records, Tony Bennett's label.

As the Arnhem attack commander, abandoned by lack of support, Anthony Hopkins shows considerable spirit and strength beneath his flaky, fox-horn-blowing surface. What matters most in the vast bulk of Bridge are the smaller nuances images like a spilling of Wood onto a child's electric or a single soldier, trains, surrounded by the dead and dying, placidly palying a flute. For all its precise staging, none of the carnage is as shocking as the horror on Laurence Olivier's face as he surveys the scene of battle, or the sorrow of Liv Oilman as her family leaves their gutted home, its lawn now marked with crosses.

Whatta you, a DNA Cow-person in search of a humanity /fix or an electron in search of a plus or minus. As day reaches middle age, all you remember is the voice of Zan Zandt and Lynard Skynard breathing heavily with caked whiskey and the singular howl of "Freebird" which you always thought was "Freiberg" and much more acceptable in terms of social derigeur, you think is this all worth while! As the day attains a mature old age and Ted Nugent rambles onstage asking you if you're a motherfucker and wanna get down and tear your neighbor apart in a semi-religious ritual of rock anger you say yeah and reach out your elongated fingernails to the fleshoid closest to you in an obvious display of cannibalistic joy. ted furthers the mood by insisting upon playing a guitar that's so nasty and low down destructive you cringe in decibel horror. "Cat Scratch Fever" says it all as far as Ted, or the Nug as those not so close to him call him, goes: Agents of fortune A brief respite. The day has reached the senility of the evening and you're all miscast agents of fortune awaiting the arrival, in leatherized regallia, of Blue Oyster Cult. These gnomes of mnemonic guitar assimilation and energy squash are the only reason you're here. When the mutant strains of "Godzilla" (which is from the new album currently being mixed, and available around October) bounce off the Stadium walls in a piercing wail of concrete demise you head is turned. When they sally forth into a spine numbing edition of Helen Wheels' (the essential poetess of the seventies, this girl ain't no beatnik jive like Patti Smith she's the real thing and lives next door to the Hell Angels in the city of Neu Yawk) "Tatoo Vampire" Photos by Rick Vazquez everyone goes crazy with sonic lust.

The only thing is, this "Born Too Be Wild" is better, more violent, more flesh eating, the sky's bursting into flames and you don't know why. The noise of a thousand claps buzzes through your head and people keep yelling, "Is It Over, man. Is It Over man" and you keep mumbling "No, hun, no, hunh .." Just then the Cult hit the stage and do "Don't Fear the Reaper" a hush quiets the night and everyone sits back thinking about Romeo and Juliet.

But a riot ended it all. No riot this night. Just the fear of rabid rowdiness breaking loose. The Michael Stanley Band comes from Cleveland's creative mire; like Buffalo, creativity demands mire. And as Stanley is cool, his rock 'n roll set is tight. Hooks are placed to entice the listener's ear, though they are not obnoxious so as to be sickening. Guitar solos are not extended to banality. What Stanley and his cohorts promote is fine cohesion during riffs. Jonal Prodigal Sun — Stanley stands up monitors to listen to, and must use the top-billed band's sound men. But Michael Stanley Band's harmonies are crisp and clear, unlike the shoddy, rough-edged Orleans who played the Theatre last fall Stanley is one group to watch fpr and listen to in the very near future. It is apparent the crowd's majority is here to witness the jazz guitar of Al DiMeola. Backstage is Buffalo's premiere jazz guitarist, Mike Smiarowski. He waits to talk to the vested player. The stairs leading up to the Theatre's dressing room are small, appealing in' that they house locked human energy ready to burst forth.

Prodigal Sun �Guest Opinion* Over the past ten years, there has been a trend in the visual media depicting Vietnam Veterans as violent, of such characterizations presented by the visual media and the atrociousness of the acts committed by actors in these roles is increasing at an alarming rate. The excessively high unemployment rate which Vietnam Fra Veterans across the nation are experiencing is a direct result of the continued portrayal of Vietnam Veterans in this light. The capabilities of the television and film industries to greatly influence public opinion are well known. Employers also watch television and go to the movies, and as members of the public, they too are influenced. Recent films of this nature are the Academy Award nominee. Taxi Driver, Vigilante Force, and The Fnjorver. Taxi Driver is about a violent, pathological taxi driver who is a “Vietnam Veteran." He botches an attempt to assassinate a politician then goes on to do in a few members of a prostitution ring. In Vigilante lone. Kris Kristofferson leads a band of “Vietnam Veterans” who take over a small town. C'lint Fastwood, The Fnjoreer. annihilates a gang of “Vietnam Veterans" terrorists who kidnapped the mayor of San Francisco for S2 million F.ven now public opinion, focused in public interest Parent-Teachers Association), are pointing out the bad effects of violent T.V. programming. Congress is also presently debating the effects of violent programming. These actions alone seem to indicate that the media industry is not listening to the consumer. Many claim the violent times we live in are caused by returning veterans. There is. in fact, evidence to the contrary. The Bureau of Prisons found in 1973 that the proportion of their inmates who were veterans was 32 percent. Accbfding to the Veterans Administration, 49 percent of American males are veterans. A study by Archer and Gartner exploring the myth of the violent veteran concluded (Psychology Today, Dec., 1976). "We now know that homicides generally increase after wars, and this increase cannot be explained by violent ex-soldiers." The media is irresponsible when it chobses the Vietnam Veteran minority to blame for the violent times we live in. The media is falsely perpetuating a myth of violent veterans, all to the detriment of Vietnam F.ra Veterans who are struggling for a job, an education and a ransom. meaningful life. The most recent Hollywood release is Black Sunday. In the film, (based on a novel by Thomas Harris) Bruce Dern plays the role of a psychopathic former HOW of Vietnam who pilots the Goodyear blimp. Dern’s objective is to kill a capacity Super Bowl crowd with 300,000 steel darts to be unleashed by plastic explosives. None of these films are based on fact. To depict Vietnam Veterans in these roles is without reason and unrealistic. The release of other films of a similar nature is due soon. The one which promises to be most destructive of the veterans’ image is (appropriately titled). Apocalypse Now. i On television there have been more of the same gross inaccuracies. The mafia hired dozens of “Vietnam Veterans” to spread havoc and kill in Stone Killer. As many of you have watched T.V. over the past decade, we are sure you can recount several “law and older” type programs, most often referred to as “cop shows.” In the majority, if not all of these program series, a Vietnam Vet has been portrayed in the villain s role. More often than not, he commits crimes for no monetary gain, but simply from an anti-social attitude. the media industries’ rationale for such If programming is that it “sells,” or worse yet, that this type of programming is what the public wants, we believe that their credibility no longer exists. flic present unemployment rale for veterans between the ages of 20-24 is 16.4 percent. This is two times greater than the national average. For blacks and other minority veterans the rate is even higher. The rate for older veterans is also excessive. I’residcnl Carter is to be commended for his recently announced lobs program for veterans. Hopefully, it will help to alleviate the aforementioned rates. Veterans education Benefits are deteriorating and are substandard compared to those offered to other veterans who risked their lives. The influence the media has on public opinion is a contributory factor. The education program, though useful, has become less helpful to those who utilize it. It has failed to keep pace with inflation, the education loan program is unfair, end of month payments will make it difficult to meet living expenses and the program is losing its rehabilitative aspects. (Non-payment drug-crazed, psychotic terrorists. At present, the number NYPIRG reviews groups such as the for non-punitive grades). Veterans are going to college to increase their employability and earning possibilities. If they can't get a particular job because of their image as a Vietnam Fra Vet and the way employers have been brainwashed by the media, they are wasting their time. Therefore, it is to their best interest to support those actions designed to change this “image." The Vietnam Veteran performed a difficult task in efforts Editor's note: The following letter was submitted by the New York Public Interest Research Group. had used the Small Claims Court recently. They gained an insight as to the day-to-day workings of To the Editor. findings. NYPIRG provided a means of personal involvement for students in various public interest issue areas during the 19.76-1977 school year. Students took advantage of the opportunities to work with NYPIRG to strive for reforms in areas of governmental accountability, children’s justice, consumer rights and energy conservation. They also helped their fellow students through a large-scalevoter registration and absentee ballot distribution decriminalization support campaign, marijuana efforts, students working with professional staff gained both valuable educational experiences, and the personal satisfaction of contributing towards a necessary reform. We are proud of our successful efforts on these projects last year: Almost 15,000 students were registered to vote in Western New York as a direct result of NYPIRG's students’ efforts. More than 30 per cent of them were registered at UB and Buff State. Thousands of out-of-county students were enabled to vote by absentee ballot as a result of NYPIRG’s distribution of application request forms and information. Our efforts did not end with the November election. We followed up through both legislative and judicial means with continued pressure for the right of students to register and vote at their college addresses. Countless students were in Buttalo and around the were denied their right to vote in the 1976 elections due to the confusion created by this statutory restriction. Students in Buffalo were part of a statewide effort to urge our state legislators to pass a marijuana decriminalization bill. These efforts included collecting petitions, letters, phone calls and working through media to gain both student and community support. The effectiveness of the Small C laims C ourt ot the City of Buffalo was analyzed to determine the extent to which it serves the needs ot area citizens. Students had particular interest in this project, since many of them had friends or family members who the Court, and are now in a position to publish from the violent roles in films and on television. If blacks or any other minority were continually portrayed as mentally irrational and violence prone with no counter programming, the networks would have been sued, picketed, chastised, vandalized and forced to apologize for “racist” programming. How they can get away with this type of programming regarding Vietnam Vets is a disgrace to our Country, Government, F.C.C. and the First Amendment. The rights guaranteed under the First Amendment are to provide freedom of speech and expression. The First Amendment should not be used by the media as a tool to villify, disgrace and persecute an identifiable segment of society. When the media, Under the protection of the First Amendment, can contribute to the high unemployment rate of Vietnam , Era Veterans they are abusing and prostituting that constitution which so many G.l.'s fought and died for. The visual media is, to a large extent, to blame for P.V.S. and high unemployment among Vietnam Era Veterans and must not cause the further disruption of the lives of thousands of Vietnam Era Veterans via its persistent and continuing identification of villains as Vietnam Veterans. Jay Gilpatrick President, UB Veterans Association Positive Image Campaign a - 31 profiles by Helen Swede SA Publicity Chairperson their Buffalo students took part in a statewide in-depth study of the operations of New York’s child care system. We studied the extent to which public agencies around the state supervise and monitor their placements to ensure adequate care, education, and treatment for their children. Students visited Family Courts, Social Services Departments, schools, and the institutions into which they place their children throughout Western New York. They gained extensive knowledge of its structure and operations by talking to people involved at all levels of the system. A particular focus was upon the out-of-state placement of children by these public agencies. Our findings of their involvement in this controversial practice have been a major contributing factor in drafting of the “Out-of-State Child Placement Act of 1977” in the State legislature. A published report will help to enlighten all concerned citizens about the controversial issue. Students teamed up with community leaders to fight for rebates from National Fuel Gas after the incredibly high heating bills last winter. We put constant pressure on the Public Service Commission in Albany to call for open hearings to discuss the need for rebates to NFG customers based on their excessive profits all winter. worked in an alternate energy Students laboratory at the Amherst campus. They applied their interests and skills in constructing various alternative energy •systems, including windmills and solar panels. These are a sampling of the projects that UB were involved in this year with NVIMRG. Industry Reform, Others funeral included: Initiatives and Recall, f reedom of Information Law Compliance Study, Decommissioning of Nuclear Power plants and Cogeneration ol Power. In most cases, students learned a great deal and contributed directly to pressure for legislative reform in Albany. Let's make next semester even biller. The projects we work on are up to students to determine. Join us and get involved! students war considered ugly by most of the American people. The Vets did their job in response to the supposedly legitimate orders of those holding the most powerful offices in the country. When the Vietnam Era Veteran returned to civilian life he was shunned by society. This unique situation, combined with the readjustment problems resulting from being shunned, was dubbed the Post Vietnam Syndrome (P.V.S.) P.V.S. is in a vicious cycle with veterans’ unemployment. The first problem the Vietnam Era Veteran faces is that of finding a job. The inabSity to find a job is a casual factor underlying P.V.S. The longer the veteran is without a job, the greater the effect of P.V.S. upon him. The more the veteran is affected with P.V.S., the more difficult time the veteran has subsequently finding a job. since he has not been interacting with the “real world.” The media (see illustration) are perpetuating this cycle with their grossly unfair depictions of the Vietnam Veteran, since employers and society are being influenced negatively toward Vietnam Era Veterans. Do you know what it is like to be asked by a close relative; “Are you going to have flashbacks?” The Federal government and some states’ agencies have provided programs to employ and educate Vietnam Era Veterans, thereby helping to facilitate re-entry into society. This helps to relieve the symptoms of the problem, but the problem will persist unless the cause is cured. The prescription; Remove “Vietnam Veterans” The Student Association (SA) is playing an integral role in the planning and implementation of Freshmen Orientation this summer. the SA representatives working on with the Orientation staff is SA Director of Student Affairs Paul Glauber. He is presently compiling the orientation handbook which will be distributed at the eleven orientation sessions. The handbook is an overall description of , University functions from the students’ viewpoint. Glauber is also arranging the busing of students from the New York City area for orientation. SA is also involved in the “Activities Workshop” presented on the first night of orientation. Various student clubs, organizations, publications and other programs funded by the mandatory fees will be described. Included will be an SA workshop. With assistance from other SA members, Glauber is preparing the workshop in order to introduce SA activities and services to the incoming freshman. The workshop will present the basic structure of student Among conjunction government at this University discussing such items fee allocations, SA budget procedures and various SA task forces. Commuter Council Co-ordinator Cheryl McNerny will present a commuter workshop on the second night of programming. She will discuss aspects of commuter life along with SA’s commuter activities. Lori Pasternak adds to SA’s commuter representation as one of the thirteen orientation aides. Also, several orientation Resident Advisors are members of SA including l.xecutive Vice-President as mandatory Andy Lalonde. Through involvement in orientation, SA hopes to facilitate the new students’ adaptation of the campus environment by familiarizing them to student government activities at this University. Next fall student clubs will he located on separate campuses, thereby precluding students from having one center of student life. Therefore. SA’s participation in this summer's orientation is particularly important for incoming freshmen so they may acquaint themselves with their new school a University with two campuses and hut one student union.

Would you be willing to play rightfield for the Yankees and hustle on every play? 1 certainly would. Apparently, Reggie Jackson is not. He isn’t asking for mora money, so that’s not the reason he didn’t hustle on Jim Rice’s pop fly' on Saturday. Perhaps he was thinking of what the candy bar named after him would be called; how does “Oh, Reggie” sound to you? “E Reggie” sounds more like it. In any event, Reggie didn’t hustle, and Rice's fly dropped for a double. Dropped in front of him for a double. When" was the last time that happened? Yankee manager Billy Martin sent Paul Blair to play rightfield, Jackson stormed ihto the dugout, embarrassed by the move, and the two nearly wound up in a fight.

Who wins and who loses and why are rapidly losing importance. Ever since the Julius Erving show ended, the most played-up sports events have been “superstars” feuding and Seattle Slew. Now even Slew is gone from the sports pages. I’m fed up with stars asking to renegotiate their high-priced contract and crying in public about it. I’m not interested in personality conflicts between managers and players and owners.

In Italy, it’s a “ciclomotori;” the French call it “mobilctte.” Here in Buffalo, the “moped” craze has taken off through a trail of red tape and is holding its own at speed limits of 17 and 30 miles per hour. “If you can ride a bike, you’ can ride a moped!” read the ads. Actually, mopedaling is easier than bicycling, because no energy is required by the rider. Simply twist the clutch and gas handles and you’re off. “I get just as big a thrill riding my moped as when I drive a big bike,” sayd Skip Giambrone, who has motorcycled for eleven years. “It’s the same free and easy feeling.” The inoped. named for motor/pedal, was bom after World War II in Italy where high gas prices and narrow, crowded streets to contributed its immediate success. Today mopeds major are a mode . of transportation in the large cities of Europe and for good reason since most get 140-200 miles per gallon of gas. “You can’t beat it for, city driving,” says Chuck Minneci “I’ll drive about 180 miles in two weeks and spend 60 cents.” Giambrone and Minneci opened the doors of Moped Unlimited in Buffalo on June 8th and sold five mopeds the first week. drives in their parking lot. The moped s are attractive in bright colOft,>«sembling a cross between a bike andamotorcycle. They are extremely light and easy to handle, riding much like a mini bike or a small motorcycle. Gears are automatic and there are no batteries. The lights and horn are powered by magneto, which generates electricity. “It’s only the pedals and its 30 mile per hour maximum that distinguish it ' from motorcycle,” says Giambrone. Some mopeds, such as the Puch from Austria, only reach 17 miles per hour. These can be driven on the street by any licenced driver over sixteen and require no license plate, insurance or helmet. The faster mopeds require all of the above, and this often causes considerable confusion. The driver of a moped need not full-power register his vehicle if he drives at 17 mph or less. How are police going to check up on this, or are they? “The cops don’t know what to do at this point,"i said one new moped owner, whose license expired last month. He does not plan t>n renewing it, terming mopedaling “hassle-free.” , Student mopedalers Many get some exercise by pedaling with the motor, which makes tor better gas mileage. It is not very easy or efficient to use the cjfcle by pedaling alone; even Giambrone admits: “You really have to chop it to get moving.” Mopedaling would seem to be ideal for students at this university who jnust commute from one campus to another. Virtually pollution-free, the moped saves energy, gas and money. Moped insurance costs far less than that for automobiles, totalling $26 for women and $54 for single males under 25 per six months. Fire and theft coverage is - . fantastic,” beams Paglia, founder of Moped Distributors, which operates out of the Chamber of Commerce Building in downtown Buffalo. He plans to expand the availability of his mopeds to many of the 27 states in which mopeds are legal. “Within the next three months we have 5,000 mopeds coming in from Italy,” Paglia reports. 100,000 mopeds were sold in the U.S. last year and sales are expected to double in 1977. While the sleek, bright little moped may seem to attract wild-eyed youth, it has gained a large adult constituency. “It’s the most fun I’ve had since I discovered downhill skiing.” sayd 47-year-old Madeleine Howland. M4- mopeds are as practical Ss they are fun. “I’m giving Dad his own moped for Father’s Day,” said one young man, “maybe then he’ll stop riding mine.” The Spectrum - also located on Bailey Avenue! 12 Austrian They received mopeds last Friday and sold five within three days. Right off the boat Mopeds were legalized on January 1 this year, after two and one half years of lobbying by men such as Pat Paglia, who arranged for moped export from Italy, and has exclusive distribution rights in the United States and Canada for New York’s students helped Carter win Does Jimmy Carter owe his presidential victory to the students of New York? In a manner of speaking, yes. Had no students voted last November, the man from Plains, Ga. would have lost the state by 70,000 votes, ind‘hence its bldek of electoral college votes. This is according 1 to a just published survey of student voters conducted by the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG). According to the poll, 68 percent of students in the state voted in the election, versus SS percent of the general population. Paul Hudson, NYPIRG attorney, commented, “The political apathy of the early aeventies appears to be ending... The student or youth vote has finally come of age. Our best estimate is that three times as many students voted in November of 1976 than have ever voted before in the state.” New York students went to Carter by a two to one margin over Gerald Ford (Carter 61 percent, Ford 31 percent, others 8 percent). The victor carried the state by less than 290,000 votes, and thus clearly needed the 360,000 tallies he received from students. Absentee ballots were used extensively, approximately half the students voting by mail. infiucncial source three makes of mopeds. “The acceptance has been 'NYPIRG’ha* been working to repeal a state law that requires students to vote where their parents reside through absentee ballots. The stste-wide consumer group feels the law makes it more difficult for students to make their political preferences felt. NYPIRG staff attorney, Ron Wainrib, commented, “Our elected officials will finally see that students are indeed an influencial source of votes. The impact of students’ opinions on the legislative process has been given an enormous boost.” NYPIRG is continuing its voter registration efforts this summer by providing registration forms in this summer’s orientation packets. Forms will be available throughout the summer in the NYPIRG offices in 311 Squire HaU and Room 120 MFC at the Ellicott complex. Vol. 28, No. 2 Friday, 17 June 1977 State University of New York at Buffalo Delia hopeful Fate of new gym unclear by Join H. Rein made this week to advance the gym’s place on the Iftdder end enure its early construction should the Federal money fall through. He has claimed though, that Hie is “very happy and confident that Phase I will go up on schedule.*’ priority Managing Editor Construction on Phase I of the Amherst Gym will begin no later than April 1976 if at least SI7.2 million in Federal Capital Construction Funds is appropriated by New York Governor Hugh Carey. If the money is not mandated by the Governor, the future of the gym can best be termed uncertain, according to Student Association (SA) President Dennis Delia. Delia, along with University President Robert Ketter, conferred with state legislators and members of the State University Construction Fund (SUCF) in Albany last week and returned with “mixed feelings.” He claimed drat he ahd Ketter had achieved considerable gains in the construction effort but admitted that he did encounter some disappointments, most importantly the realization that work on Phase II .of the gym will be delayed. The two phases cannot be built simultaneously, Delia explained, because money required for the planning of Phase II has not been appropriated. , , r i More money needed i, The problem surrounding the starting date for construction of Phase. 1 is due to die questionable availability of Federal funds. Governor Carey baa at his disposal a total of ISO million in these funds which are to be spent at his discretion. Ketter has asked the Governor for a minimum of SI7:2 million, while his highest request is for $30.8 million. SUNY at Buffalo has already secured S1S.6 in Housing Finance Agency Bonds (HFA) purchased by the firm of Hornblower and Weeks, and die additional Federal money would allow the University to begin work on six projects, including the gym. However, if the money from the Governor’s office is not allocated to Buffalo, the future of the gym is unclear. Although Ketter, at Delia’s urgings, has repeatedly claimed that the Amherst Gym is the “number one priority” and, in fact, has stated so in a letter written by Ketter and the bi-partisan delegation of Western New York legislators, there are indeed four protects which precede the gym on the priority,Jflst. If the federal funds are not secured,' those four projects (the Maintenance and Repair Facility, a Biology Laboratory Greenhouse, Interior Roads and Parking Lots and a Utility System) are slated to begin before the gym. It would therefore appear that the gym is in fact not the “number one priority” but number five. Delia, however, stressed that every effort would be Lauds Ketter If t$e funds are made available, Delia said, “We will be in very good shape.” The four aforementioned projects will be constructed as will Phase I of the gym. In addition, work will begin on either the Instructional Communication Center (audio-visual center) or the Music and Chamber Hall. The following is a list of the estimated construction costs of die seven projects: Maintenance Shop and Repair Facility $5.3 Laboratory million; v Biology Greenhouse $1.8 $5810,000; Interior Roads and Parking Lots million: Utility System 84.3 million; Phase I of dm Amherst Gym $9.1 million; Instructional Commuakatkm Center $4.4 mBUon; Music and Chamber Hall $8.3 million. “We aaust fulfill our dedication to higher education,” Doha said. “We have to get the planning appropriation.” The SA President tended Wte* "The administration la doing a vqiy commendable job.

He said he and Ketter successfully heightened the awareness of the Western New York legislators regarding the “dire" situation this University faces. He was also pleased with the belief that he bad nude igroads with the State Division of the Budget (DOB) am) said he expected immediateand instant results. In his report to the legislators, Ketter maintained that many of the plans for both the Amherst and Main Street campuses could still be carried out at original cost. Wrote Ketter: “Despite several delays and an estimated inflation rate of 10 to 20 percent in construction costs, the University can still build out the Amherst Campus and rehabilitate the Main Street Campus for the health service schools with the original construction ceiling of $650 million.” �iH .WfF Qj«n| Shocking news After a long and circuitous countdown, the Buffalo mayorat race jeached lift-off last week as the Democratic Patty:olpcialiy endorsed presen ty deputy .mayor Leslie G.

NYPIRG investigates out-of-state troubled children’s facilities by Amy Miler Spectrum Staff Writer -VuquM DOB's help needed Parcel B may rise in Fall by Jay Rosen Special Features Editor of their potential market. Original planners of the campus envisioned 50,000 students, a figure which has shrunk considerably over the years. In any event, the foundation can now only wait for the lease to come through in final form. “Until that lease is signed, sealed and delivered, we are unable to do anything,” Carter admitted. Once the lease is finalized and a developer selected, design work can begin almost immediately. According to DeSantis, this type of commercial construction can be designed and blueprinted much quicker than academic-type buildings. This makes a completion date in 1978 reasonable. “We could have part of it operational by next fall.” Carter speculated. The long awaited roar of dump trucks and diggers may be heard by next fall on the Amherst Campus as the plans for a commercial development on Parcel B solidify. Ground breaking for the project will be an important step in the uphill climb towards developing the campus into a self-contained unit. The construct is slated to include various stores, markets, a bank and other services in,a commercial mall-type setting. Attorneys for the SUNY system are working out the details of a lease which would be acceptable to the State’s Division of Budget (DOB) and to the UB foundation, an organization of University alumnus High rental rates and area business leaders that has formulated plans One factor that may complicate design and for Parcel increase costs is the stipulation that the development John Carter, chairman of the project's Board of must conform architecturally to the rest of the Directors, hopes the lease will be written and signed Amherst Campus. Attention grabbing signs will be by July 1. Selection of a private developer could be banned, and unlike other area malls, the project completed by August I and, if all goes well, ground must be visually appealing from all viewing angles, could be broken sometirne in September. including from above, as occupants of Baldy and Gemens Halls will be able to look down on the Construction costs rising construct.

Whether these higher rates will be get that project flying.” Legislation permitting, reflected in prices of particular goods and services commercial construction on SUNY land was passed remains to be seen. Carter envisions no problems in eventually almost two years ago. An initial lease has existed for over a year. The Division of Budget has held up the filling the maximum square footage, set at 70,000 by $10 million project by hesitating on various details legislation. Current plans include 20,000 additional square feet of office space, and a 1 SO room hotel. of the lease.

Also, Carter which would contain shopping centers and constantly Campus the Amherst are of population changing, interested merchants cannot gauge the size services on the ground floor. - ' ... - - - Relying simply on brochures and long distance phone calls, New York State officials have been shipping troubled and handicapped children to uninspected out-of-state facilities. Tuition costs at the private facilities are rising at triple the rate of similar institutions available in New York State despite the less stringent licensing laws and child care regulations of other states. Figures on both the numbers of children placed and the dollars spent to support them are steadily increasing. Locally, the Erie County Department of Social Services and Family Services accounts for more out of state placements than any other county outside of New York City. The New York Public Interest Research Group, Inc. (NYPIRG) has been investigating the problem since Fall 1976. According to NYPIRG staff attorney, Ronald Wainrib, “The out-of-state placement phenomena is growing out of control and unless something is done soon to create appropriate programs or increase control over the placements made out of state, more kids will be lost in the bureaucratic maze.” ' Failed inspection Wainrib testified before a State Assembly Committee investigating the matter last month that the Erie County Department of Social Services and Family Court has placed 20 children in institutions operated throughout the country by the Youth Rehabilitation Center, Inc., also known as "Hdgemeade.” These 20 placements cost Erie County taxpayers approximately 5300,000 annually, exclusive of plane fares and phone bills. An inspection of one Edgeraeade facility in Virginia by the state of New Jersey revealed that: “The school does not function as a special education program, according to guidelines established by the New Jersey Department of Education.” The State of New York has approved placement of children in the company’s facilities around the - , country. Erie County officials make on-site visits to these insitutions only when bringing new children there. “They are not funded by Erie County to travel to facilities outside of Western New York for other purposes,” testified Waiprib. At least SO other children from the area are currently being considered for placement across the country. These children range in age from five to 18 and include the severely physically and mentally handicapped, emotionally disturbed and delinquents. ■ Legislation pending Wainrib expressed concern over the lack of interstate coordination between officials, inadequate monitoring and supervision of the children's progress, and overall quality of treatment. A bill pending before a state assembly committee is a direct result of the NYPIRG investigation. It would promote the creation of state programs for handicapped and troubled children, create an out of state placement bureau and develop standards for out of state facilities. Wainrib has suggested “mandatory, unannounced on-site inspections by our own agencies' officials at least once a year.” He added that this is not specified in the bill. National industry The NYPIRG attorney felt that, “out of state placements are symbolic of the lack of priority for child care and for education of handicapped children.” He pointed to a “national, industry that has grown significantly in the last few years in response to the marketing of these children.” Wainrib was critical of sending children to states that don’t meet New York’s standards of education. NYPIRG has been one»df the chief guardians of the welfare of handicapped and troubled children. A comprehensive report, documenting the investigation of the out of state placement issue, will be available soon in the NYPIRG office. The consumer group has expressed the need for legislative support and public awareness of the issue. Letters of support for the bill are urged.

At Ellicott, the situation is basically the same, with service terminating at 4 p.m' daily and closing completely on the weekend. Director of Health Services M. Luther Musselman has cited budget cuts of $12,000 as the reason for the limited service. The services offered here are less than limited; they are minimal. Summer school students are now being housed in Ellicott for the first time. According to Dinctor of Nurses, Virginia Troy, Musselman foresaw a possible conflict in lack, of service, and wrote to Ketter in April asking for more money and more nurses, requests which were turned down. What Musselman possibly foresaw, and what Ketter obviously did not. is that at the same time that no health service is being offered, nor are there any buses to get out of Ellicott on the weekend.

Indeed, many will further inform you that the Stills-Young outings were in reality YOUNG-stills, an embarrassment for the blonde guitar man, once efficient enough to be considered one of the world's top ten by Eric Clapton, Only abouj five or six years ago, that was a hell of a compliment, Bands who now bring in more millions with one record than CSN might bring in with a collection of ten of their solo projects idolized the group. actively seeking the combustive chemistry for which only they had the formula. More than once I've heard performers retell their meeting with Crosby at the Troubadour when they first in sunstreaked Los arrived Angeles. Observed with these encounters can Be viewed as a type of omen. But back then, it was a sort of indicator as to Mho was setting the standards, and who was keeping up with them. And there remains little doubt in any faithful camp follower's mind that CSN (with or without the Young) darkly humorous entwined the roots of the Byrds, Springfield, and Hollies and produced the style that is still aspired by Frye-booted to Martin-pickers in wooden bars, Eagles. America, Firefall, some I Poco, Loggins and Messina imagine some of the Friday nighe audience's younger members are rather unaware how much influence CSN had on that broad scope of American music loosely labeled folk and/or country rock, And on behalf of that sector of spirited the audience, their reception proved that CSN are still doing it; or maybe that should read can,still do it. They are as applicable with "Our House" now as they were in front of the Four Way Street audiences, As a concrete confirmation of all this fanatical noise, Crosby, Stills, and Nash have produced the album that never made it. following Reunion '74. And their concert was a protrayal of the California ethos is one of the purer senses of the term. ’ — Acoustic magic A visible reinforcement of this point was the performance of the new single. It was in "Just a Song Before I Go" that the three part harmonies first registered their full impact. And even author Graham Nash's lyric implied the wistful warning advised in such vintage numbers as "Teach Your Children:" Just a song before / go A lesson to be learned Travelin' the speed of sound It's easy to get burned. And Stephen Stills, who will admit to putting out a string of none-too-exciting records, was lead, solid electric playing performance in the style once so admired by Clapton (Hendrix, too.). This set saw Crosby (who was all red and brown, as usual) with twelve string Gibson electric, and Nash behind the piano for a surprising rendition of "I Used to be a King." But what I really anticipated was the acoustic set. Like to sing? I used to revel in just the sight of any of CSN's aged Martins (Old Martins never die, they just mellow out). Stephen Stills is known to travel with no less than thirty guitars at a time, and the usual closet's worth of rosewood, mahogany, and spruce made my kleptomaniacal urge make a temporary appearance. The’ last time I saw Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, I would have passed up the rest of the acoustic set for just "Judy Blue Eyes." But that was the opener Friday, and although the audience got to its feet a good two minutes before the end of the number, I thought that there would have to be more to it than just “Judy." What they followed up "Judy" with as the vocal penetrating intation I've ever seen. The isitely simple "You Don't t to Cry" generated pure ince. It was easily the most 'ive acoustic number I've seen them perform. The lienee saw Stills at his acoustic with Robert Johnson's ossroads" into Chuck Berry's Can't Catch Me." Steve's lot of guitars, sure, but he damn well does know how to play them. "Do you like to sing?" asked Nash. And that audience sang every word of "Our House" right back to him. The acoustic set segued back into electric with a film on Whales, produced for Nash's "Wind On The Water." Rescuing the whales from extinction is one of Crosby and Nash's favorite outside projects, and the audience was impressed by whales' personal form of ballet. The band for the electric sets returned at this point. Still* brought along bassist George Perry, and Joe Vitale for drums. a keyboardman was one Mr. Craig Doerge. Doerge is notorious for session work with almost all of LA. The last set featured “Carry On" in shortened form as the close. They fulfilled their obligation for "Wooden Ships" as an encore. Again, in the electric set, the delicate balance of voices and electricity was showering sparks. 'Teach Your Children" brought them back a second time, followed by the final "Find the Cost of Freedom." The express chugged to a stop and CSN got off. The audience trailed out, fobking for beers on Elmwood and Allen. Notedly, present, Buffalo is a town that enjoys its rock and roll, to say the least. The hugest bill of the summer so far, Superfest, features Blue Oyster Cult, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Tod Nugent, and Starz. That's line-up. quite weighty a Aerosmith is selling fast and Kiss chose Buffalo to publish their first comic. But CSN carried the weight without the decibel level. It would have been a little more disappointing than usual if the concert didn't work that well. But it succeeded to the point that it didn't need allowances made to be acceptable. I asked myself in amazement not how they can do it, but why it still works. But the encore can explain: Don't you ever ask them why If they told you you would cry So just look at them and sigh. .. �Artpark's free workshops slated to kick-off this month Artpark's highly successful series „of free outdoor performances for children and adults returns to Lewiston, N.Y, for a third season, beginning June 29 and continuing throughout the summer.

Prodigal Sun �'All's Well That Ends by Michael Wing Spectrum Staff Writer Shakespeare's All's Well That Ends Well is a difficult play with an ironic title, We seem to be asked to rejoice in the heroine's acquisition through trickery of a husband patently unworthy of her. In Shakespeare's source a story by Bocaccio the premises were those of fabliaux, a moral questions about the plot devides were not raised. But Shakespeare does everything he can to raise such questions by making his hero Bertram arrogant, snobbish, cruel, superficial, and insensitive. Hence, as in another of the so-called "problem plays," Measure for Measure, there is a gap between plot resolution and — — — emotional satisfaction. It is difficult to know, therefore, whether or not this play can be effectively staged. It is even more problematic for the directpr than Measure for Measure because we are forced to endure for most of the play's duration the awareness of a discrepancy between what is happening and what we want to happen. In Measure for Measure this awareness Only comes into focus at the end. However, having acknowledged the difficulty of the play, the fact remaini that it simply will not do to deal with the problems by just ignoring them. Yet that is just what David Jones has done, ih his production at the Stratford (Ontario) Shakespeare Festival. He has treated AH's Well as if it were a festive comedy, and has done everything he could to tone down Bertram's nastiness. The result is rather bland. The driving force in the play its ironic undercutting of its own plot has been defused, and although the experience is not unpleasant, neither is it genuinely celebratory. AH’s Well That Ends Well can be wrenched into the semblance of a festive comedy, but it cannot be (Trade into a very good one. —Courtesy Robert C. Ragsdale, a.r.p.s. — but almost to require such imagery, yet Shakespeare scrupulously avoids language which would relate Helena's ministrations to nature. They are exclusively supernatural, miraculous, unearthly. i ‘% — Cleansing of characters Subversion of mood and content David Jones, who is Artistic Director of England's prestigious Royal Shakespeare Company at the Aldwych in London, seems to have a for deflecting Shakespeare's comedies from their true courses. In his Stratford Twelfth Night in 1975, he drained the play of most of its joy, injecting an aggressive and apparently purposeless malignity into almost every character's behavior. It can, of course, be interesting to bring out qualities of a play which usually remain subliminal (as RoeejftiUieu** igl briM*aatay m&v* years at Stratford). But it rranother thing entirely to deprive a play of its natural strengths to no apparent end. This year's AH's Well is certainly much better than Twelfth Night was, but it still reflects the same willful subversion of the manifest mood apd content of the play as did the earlier production. If he wanted an unpleasant play in 1975, why didn't he do All’s Well then? And if he wanted a festive comedy this year, why choose All's Well now? The strangeness of this production's attempt to turn the play into a romantic comedy is nowhere more evident than in the attempt to impose a seasonal pattern. There is one speech in the play which can be used to support this. It is Helen's in IV iv; But with the word the time will bring on Summer, Whenbriers shall have leaves as well as thorns. And be as sweet as sharp. But surely this is rather slim support. And there is nothing else in the play to suggest the seasonal pattern of birth-death-renewal which almost always characterizes Shakespearean comedy and romance. Helena's miraculous revival of the King's health would seem not only to invite Thus, it is rather a weak device to suggest, as this production does, a seasonal progress from autumn (fallen leaves on the stage at the beginning, which the Clown ostentatiously draws attention to by sweeping them off, ad infinitum), to winter (an old withered tree, a campfire, and the actors holding their cloaks tightly about them, in Act IV), to Spring (a long green garland hung along the balcony in the last scene). A director can put these properties onstage, but if they fipd no .significant support from the play's language or action, duty have little effect; *J|. lt)9V justsit And then there is the cleansing of Bertram's character. As played by Nicholas Pennell (an excellent actor), he is impetuous youthful arrogant, than and rather undisciplined rather than shallow andcruel. When the King (very well played by William Hutt) tries to persuade Bertram of Helena's worth, despite her lowly social status, his replies are: "A poor physician's daughter my wife!'' and "I cannot love her, nor will strive to do't." Pennell delivers these nasty lines with an expression of confusion, pleading, and hurt, suggesting that it is his circumstances and not his nature that produces his response. Later when Helena asks for a kiss on parting, the text clearly indicates Bertram’s refusal; "Strangers and foes do sunder and not kiss,” says Helena. Bertram replies, "I pray you, stay not, but in haste to horse." (II v) They do kiss But in this production they do kiss, and very affectionately. Bertram's subsequent desertion is thus presented as his youthful will overcoming his better nature. And at the end, when Bertram's illicit wooing of Diana is exposed and he tries to lie his way out of it by slandering her, the distasteful effect of this (which, as A.P. Rossiter says, nails down our view of Bertram as unredeemable) is mitigated by the Stratford production's treatment of Diana. She is played by Barbara Stephen as coy, light-hearted, and ironic, someone whose primary motive for action is the enjoyment of playing a trick, and who therefore cannot be deeply hurt. Because she does not take Bertram’s vicious accusations seriously, we are encouraged not to do so. This production makes us indifferent to Bertram. Diluting a character's nastiness does not necessarily leave us with a likeable character, merely a non-nasty one. What the production does to Helena is rather more problematic. She seems incomprehensible, although she admittedly might still be in a production truer to the play's spirit. Our relation fo the character is odd, and is the core of the play's strangeness. We identify with her from the start, and share her perspective as the chief director-xif the play's action throughout. Yet half-way through, when Bertram coldly refuses her. we lose a clfear sense of her motivation in actively continuing to pursue him. While we still participate in her mechanical superiority over the other characters, we cease to understand her thoughts and feelings. ■ It might ' seem that softening Bertram's character would make the task of the actress playing Helena easier. If he is more desirable, her motivation becomes clearer. The problem is Bertram becomes bland rather than attractive when his nastiness is toned down. Therefore, Helena's central position and energetic activity is still without convincing direction, and loses even the clearness of its contrast with Bertram's recalcitrance. Too much gesturing Martha Henry is an actress of control and meticulous technique rather than great emotional force.

And, I would suspect, when a production supplies warmth, her rather formal style can probably assume the coloration of the whole. But this production neither provides her with a character who must visibly struggle to contain her emotions nor with a genuinely festive pattern. She is asked to carry the action largely by herself, and one is aware of a less than successful struggle on her part to fill the void left by the departing text (and, perhaps, in the text itself). She is left to try to generate feelings of depth and continuity, by herself, and cannot accomplish it. There is too much gesturing and overt energy for too little emotional impact.

"Presence" Would only be compensation for lack of coherence. l A ;v a temporary ' ‘ Totality lacked force Individual Scenes are well directed and reasonably effective as self-contained units, even though they do not combine to create a total effect. And this acting is fine throughout the large cast, with particularly good performances being turned in by William Hutt (as a melancholy but kindly King), Margaret Tyzack (as the Countess), Richard Monette (as Parolles; he is good at these comedy-of-humors parts), and Leslie Yeo (as Lafew). Upon leaving the theater I heard someone remark that she “enjoyed every minute of it," and, in a sense, I did, too. "Every minute" was entertaining; it was the totality that lacked force. If one came to this production knowing nothing about the play, I suppose it would simply seem comedy.

If I had not seen Phillips' work, I might not have known whether the difficulties of such a play could be adequately embodied on the contemporary stage. But, having seen it, I am sure that they can be. It may be that All's Well is even a harder nut to crack than Measure for Measure and Troilus and Cressida. Rossiter sees it as a play which is inconclusive because Shakespeare's feelings at the time he wrote it were unresolved. If that is the case, it probably can never be satisfactorily staged without the sort of simplification Jones has imposed. But I would like to see someone like Phillips try his hand at it before I relegate it to that secondary status.

Say Goodbye To Hollywood (Cleveland Inter national/Epic) .There is no better way to introduce a singles column. Say Goodbye to Hollywood marks toe triumphant return of teen dream queen Ronnie Spector to toe world of music. This is no sellout effort; It doesn't cater to any trend, past or present, yet it is as characteristic of the late seventies as "Be My Baby" was of the early sixties. Ronnie is ably assisted by her backup band, the E Street Band, and her producer, Miami Steve Van Zandt. Especially notable from the E Street Band is Clarence Clemons, whose sabre like tenor sax constantly and effectively punctuates toe song. Although they sometimes tend to be overbearing. Van Zandt's arrangements and production are magnificent nonetheless, and provide toe perfect background to Ronnie's voice. At times he employs the castanets and thrashing drums that used to be Phil Spectra's trademark, but he uses them more as tributes than as imitations. "Say Goodbye to Hollywood" is truly a great song. Still, its chances of becoming a big hit single may not be all that good. I mean, how can quality material like this survive in a wasteland where Shaun Cassidy's mediocre, insipid version of "Da Doo Ron Ron" is presently burning up toe charts? * UNISEX fi Quck Styx. Crystal Ball (A&M) As a follow up to. Lorelei. Crystal Ball is a natural choice, having already received extensive airplay on many progressive and not-so-progressive FM stations. This single may even do better than its predecessor, for it has a very catchy hook in its chorus, something that was lacking in Lorelei. There is an interesting balance between acoustic and a balance that works electric throughout the song very well; nothing sounds out of place. Considering the success of groups like Genesis, Kansas and Supertramp in Buffalo, it is surprising that this record isn't receiving more airplay on the local AM stations. - -> Latest European Cuts Maple Center ■ for Guys and Gals! 1400 Millersport 688-9026 — RST1VAI.lAST4l8JQNPS£SINT‘>fdliAlillWH*lphwaQHL97“ the STADIUM SUPERFESTit Orchard Park, N.

Spring is, at least in these parts, when theatres wind down, films those worth a are highly' scarce, and music is what's tinker's damn, anyway happening in the local entertainment scene. The timing of the spring semester break was ironic as well. It put an effective axe to covering the film I'd been waiting for since December Bound For Glory. So I was unable to lavish the requisite praise on David Carradine’s exemplary portrayal of Woody Guthrie, or Haskell Wexier's gorgeous photography, an achievement that even this year's unusually air-headed Oscar had to acknowledge. And the film died, most unfittingly, here as elsewhere. But summer is here, and the pickings are again fat. Several major first-run films are opening this week alone —A Bridge Too Far, the WW II epic of which director Richard Attenborough says, "We were men and seriously considering declaring war on Russia; we had equipment to do it," being the most ballyhooed. Other buffoes are The Deep, with Robert Shaw again taking to "Jaws" author Peter Benchley's treacherous seas, and The Heretic: Exorcist II, which should have little trouble wasting the combined talents of Richard Burton, Max Von Sydow, Louise Fletcher, and Paul Henried, who's been away from the screen for so long I was sure he'd shuffled off our mortal coil. In Ontario, Canada, the Stratford Festival is rather gaudily celebrating its 25th anniversary with, among several other offerings, restagings of its first two productions of 1952 Richard III and AH’s Well That Ends Well. (Michael Wing reviews Stratford's AH's Well That Ends Well in this issue.) The Shaw Festival has a rare treat George Bernard's very first play. Widower's Houses, never, to my knowledge, given a major production anywhere in my lifetime. Also on tap at Niagara-On-The'Lake is the Shavian heavy weight, Man and Superman.

Lissen' ever since the days of "Coin' Girl Crazy," there first release on Epic, the Dictators have been cast as the clown princes of the scene. Like the aged comedian no longer funny, no longer needed, they've been seeking a new identity, as serious actors, perhaps, as the next big well anyway with Manifest Destiny these thing, perhaps, as. Procrustean mahatmas burn the buns and ride the hot rails of hypertonia like madmen shoving your sisters brains into a K Tell Sonic Vego-Automatic Technoethnomusicological Conflagration Machine in order to serve up a fresh supply of cerebral french fries, these guys are a lot smarter than they want you to believe. Senicide fresh on their leathery breaths, a confusion of language inside their hearts the Dictators tell us such disquieting tales as: "Exposed," a song about Washington? with the classic line: "I don't wanna meet my maker/l gotta get away/l think I'll become a Quaker," through to the sublime beauty of "Sleepin' With the TV On" the scheduled second single release from the Ip, the first being "Hey Boys." "Steepin' With the TV On" transcends an earthly stance and slides into an alien haze. Side one rounds out with the saprophagous ode to Idi Amin's younger days, "Disease." Side two's so rowdy it'll fuse your eyelids to your cheekbones just check out "Science Gone Too Far," and "Young, Fast and Scientific." It'll be worth your sanity. When all is said and done, and that ain't that far off and we're all adust with neo-lndustrialistic atman, we'll no doubt be busy humming Manifest Destiny to our children before bedtime. The Dictators are nervy genius' whether they like it or not, and they probably don't.

They live in the West, and while they most often recorded in Nashville, they continued to base their managerhents in CA.

Freddie never had a great vocal range, but he sang in pleasant style that suited his nice, sexy songs. He . so sexy was a big hit maker with "Easy Loving" (" looking"). He kept that theme goingjor all the years since that release too. Freddie was pussy whipped and who's dah .. fool? The new LP continues the songs of love and endearment with a knowing smile, but this time the strings take over and Freddie sings worse than I have heard on record. I can't recommend this as the place to start with country music if you are at all interested. (Try a greatest hits album, Capitol-838). In one song Freddie quotes from some of his previous song titles, including “My Hangup is You." This album also hits all the many country music bases for subject matter. Freddie as always, really puts his woman up on the pedestal in "There's An Angel Living There." Even though she is a tavern girl with no nice clothes, she's ...‘. the answer to my prayers." More sentimentality gushes forth in the family side of Freddie. I ain't been a good father, my little girl ran away, and I’m sorry I broke up with your mommy. Hart even puts in one recitation number In which he really gets to pour his heart out. There is only one upbeat number in the set, "Stronger and Stronger," ci repetitiously forgettable song. To read this you might think I don't like this side of Country music, but I do when done well. Country song writing can be superior, but here it doen't shine. This is music that, perhaps, most of the readers here cannot relate to. It is really a mature sound with mature lyric themes. Your parents might think it fine. I hope Freddie will get back to a Nashville straight sound and leave the middle-of-the-road strings and chorus behind after this attempt.

Starbuck, the group that had an amazing hit on the AM airwaves last fall, has grouped together once again, hoping to jettison onto the Top 10 charts at speeding, facetious warp factors. Rock stars wait for light years.

Rock 'n but a small indication of the album's true essence,--as popularity via the hook of King Harvest's "Dancing in the Moonlight" rarely dovetails with progression.

The hearings, which went on last week, ask what to do with the two biliidn dollar Clinch River reactor project at Oak Ridge, Tenn., and whether to mothball it as urged by President Carter, or continue it, as voted by the House Science Committee. (The House International Relations Committee, which also claims jurisdiction, voted with Carter.) France': has the equivalent of a Clinch River project called the Phoenix Project, and some of the congressmen who are just back from the European air show warn that Prance is going ahead with it, whatever Carter and the Americans do. Witnesses are James Schlesinger, White House energy adviser, white haired and ruddy-faced, and Robert Fri, acting head of the Energy Research and Development Administration, Who comes from Kanses and whose name looks like a Calendar abbreviation. He slouches in his chair in a brown suit. Each man has a pipe and intermittently emits a dense mushroom shaped cloud. These people speak to each other mostly in acronymns and it is wise to bring a glossary; for instance Clinch River is CRBRP (Clinch River Breeder Reactor Project) and at one point Fri explains, “The CRBRP was designed to demonstrate that an LMFBR can operate safely.” \ou instantly grasp that he refers to a Liquid Metal Fast Breeder Reactor. The first time we watched Schlesinger he was before Congress pleading for billions for nuclear weapons as secretary of defense; now everything is quaintly reversed, he is pleading with Congress not to spend billions for a breeder reactor. He is trying to help Mr. Carter keep America out of a different kind of international race, involving breeders, not bombs. Of course the two issues are connected because laughing Nature, in one of her merriest pranks, has provided a radioactive element, uranium, that can be utilized for either. It’s up to us. 1 ' Private utility corporations have a big stake in the decision Congress is about to make because they have invested in Clinch River, as they have in the big nuclear reprocessing plant at Barnwell, S.C. You can sympathize with them because the government encouraged them to make the investment. The reversal in policy by presidents Ford and Carter is one of the sharpest in history; a lot of Congressmen aren’t convinced of its wisdom and the utilities are sponsoring an advertising campaign to keep the projects going in spite of Carter. Congressmen listen to Schlesinger skeptically. Two Republicans ask if the U.S. isn’t going to be left behind in the nuclear fuel race? They are Hamilton Fish, Jr. of N.Y. and Barry Goldwater, Jr. of California. In one case papa headed the first great House Un-American Activities committee, in the other case papa ran for president. Now they’re in the nuclear age. The observer hears that there are “good” reactors and “bad” reactors. The good ones are the ordinary, uncomplicated commercial power plants that bum the uranium fuel. There are 62 in the country today making a valuable addition to scarce energy supplies and producing a lot of America’s electricity 45,000 megawatts of it, with “mega” standing for a million. Each 1000 megawatts produces about 30 tons of spent fuel a year. It’s this spent fuel that all the trouble is about. The waste is radioactive, contains highly toxic plutonium and is capable of being turned into energy itself. That’s the hitch. The theory has been that this lethal by-product, suitably processed would be turned over to the second type of nuclear facility, the breeder reactor, so named because it creates more fuel "than it consumes; it breeds the stuff. In his testimony Schlesinger agreed that the breeder could theoretically increase uranium efficiency 60 times, a kind of perpetual-motion machine. But now the Administration has decided that there is too much danger of international nuclear proliferation, that we need more experience with plants like that at Clinch River, which was supposed to be an experimental prototype. It has made this the “bad” reactor. In this fantastic world there is another problem: you can’t dispose of spent fuel in the ordinary sense, it can’t be absorbed by the environment or dumped into a river, say, to let the fish play with the gamma rays. It has an active life of around 100,000 years. What do you do with it; bury it? Presently it is stored (usually under water) for some decision to be taken. The ocean? Caves? Shot into space? Those details have to be worked out. A group of reputable scientists brought together by the Ford-Mitre Foundation, in a 1977 paperback, Nuclear Power Issues and Choices, (Ballinger, $6.95) reaches the same conclusion as President Carter; “In these circumstances, we believe that reprocessing should be deferred indefinitely by the United States and no effort should be made to subsidize the completion or operation of existing facilities.” From Australia, ■ rich in uranium ore, come similar recommendations by a trio of students led by prize-winning nuclear scientist Stuart Butler. They differentiate between the “good” and the “bad” reactor, too, the former called the thermal reactor. “The thermal reactor,” they say, “with all its problems does offer, in our opinion, an acceptable source of electricity generation.” The second type? “We are totally opposed to the introduction of breeder reactors for power productipn at this stage.” that apart from Schlesinger makes a final practical argument “foreign policy considerations,” the huge Clinch River breeder reactor isn’t cost-effective and may not be till the price of energy goes a lot higher. The estimated future need for uranium, he says, is down to less — This installment is the first in a series of columns dedicated to Student Association (SA) news and activities. Through the column, we at SA hope to inform this University’s students about current SA events to alleviate the communication problems that have existed over the last few years. Consequently, we hope that a better informed student body will result in a more active student body working towards all of our common goals. We invite your comments, criticisms and suggestions about both SA and the column. Please drop off your ideas in the SA office. Speaking of the SA office, today’s column will deal precisely with the office itself. The big question buzzing around SA is exactly where the office will be located this summer. SA will be one of the first organizations to re-locate to the new student union at the Amherst campus. But, because of delays and problems in construction, no specific or confirmed moving schedule has been determined. SA Executive Vice President Andy Lalonde has spoken of the “extreme frustration” that SA has encountered with the University administration concerning the move. Dates being considered are June 17, July 6 and August 20. The tedious moving process, though, has begun. Boxes have been packed and the office staff is finding it inconvenient to work under such circumstances, particularly when no end is in sight. The uncertain but imminent move has prompted Lalonde to term the situation “chaotic at best.” SA President Dennis Delia was in Albany last week trying to expedite matters concerning Amherst construction. If his efforts are successful, SA Should soon be able to return to at least a semblance of normalcy. So, if you have need of SA or would like to offer a suggestion about the column, stop by 205 Squire (Norton) Hall. Or, better yet, to save yourself the walk, call 831-5507. Checking the professors To the Editor. Having reached a senior point in my educational struggle I find it a prime time to review my years at U.B. Many incoming freshmen will hear the phrase “U.p. is an educational experience.” I know that I heard these words many times in the past and would like to express what they have tolled for me. Aside from the long hours and hard work of which are to be expected, is the wide variety of instructors at this University. Actually there is not such a wide variety, for the experienced student can usually classify them with ease. Whether or not people outside the University are aware of it, a good majority of the professors at U.B. are living on their laurels. Thfe problem at this University, and I speculate at many others, is a poor system of checks. Although the University system is loaded with the so called “Bureaucratic Red Tape” and “Bottlenecks”, it fails to have a solid system of checks on one of the most crucial elements of any university system its professors. For instance, I have attended many classes where the professor was extremely rude and indifferent. In fact “indifference” seems to be the prime hindrance in getting an education. One undergraduate advisor remarked to me one time that he even wondered what some professors were — researching in their offices, ignoring students, and collecting comfortable checks. 1’m‘sure that everyone knows that within every group of people, professionals, etc. one expects to see a few supposedly bad apples. But to myself and many fellow students it’s the concerned and friendly instructors that are the minority. The present check on our instructors involves a standardized computer questionnaire and an additional comment sheet which are completed by class members at the end of the semester. The results of the computer form are not available for review until the following year, while the comment sheets are readily at hand. These would be great if it did not take three years before they catch up with the departmental review. In the meantime students continue to pay good money for sub-standard teaching. why So one may ask himself the question attend U.B.? To this question there may be a variety it's cheaper, it has the course of study of answers I’m seeking, it’s title “University” sounds good, etc. Granted that these are advantages it is probably why this school is still able to attract the masses. Hence, after digesting the inconceivability of large classes, long lines, and mixture of instructors you may be ready to hit the street for a job. you’re probably Book-wise somewhat more knowledgeable than when you entered, and last but not least you should be more “people-wise” than when you started. Education is infinite, but the “Educational Experience” at U.B. will be a sound memory and hopefully applicable throughout the rest of one’s life. - — M.

The Spectrum Page thirteen . �O mmm Bluebirds not flying evenings, weekends by Paife MQler The lack of weekend buses this summer and the sparse weekday schedule is the result of severe budgetary restraints, explained Acting Director of Campus Busing Roger McGill. The amount of money allocated for busing for this fiscal year falls S 180,000 short of the University’s projected needs. McGill stated that without sufficient funding, weekend buses would not be possible this summer. “We have no special license to overspend our budget. We have to live within our means,’’ he said. He added that historically there had never been weekend buses during the summer. A bus running eight hours Saturday and Sunday for the rest of the summer would cost S1.500. McGill noted that the weekday service represents a SIS,000 increase over previous years, in which only one school bus ran from 9 a.m. to 5 pjn. Currently there are three transit buses running in the day and two transits running at night. The total cost for this service for the summer is approximately $37,400. “By the end of the summer, we’ll be $40,000 overspent (for this fiscal year),” McGill said. ‘This can’t go on.” If additional funding for buses is not found, that $40,000 would come out of the money allocated for busing for the fall semester. Lengthy strike to contmue About 2100 determined National Fuel Gas workers, members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (1BEW), have entered the 120th day of thcir-strike, to which there is no end in sight. The strikers two weeks ago rejected by a 1517 to 259 margin an improved package of wages and benefits that also included reductions in work crew sizes and in sick leave. A major feature of the package, rejected by workers, was a proposed July 1 contract date, as opposed to the ujtual date of the expired contract, February 14. Workers would have to wait four months longer for second year pay increments to begin, and would be unable to strike during profitable winter months sould the provision be accepted. The union had urged a no vote on the (NFG) Sports Editor roughly National Fuel Goi ■ One chance made The third daytime bus was added to the summer schedule the first week in June because the two buses originally scheduled were not sufficient. “The change came about because certain times one bus couldn’t carry all the passengers. Some people got left behind,” McGill vi ’ • said. ■ ' ■ McGill said that the administration is trying to get additional money for busing. “On the whole, I think the University has addressed the busing situation very well.” he said. “I think tlie buses are running smoothly in terms of what can be done with the resources available. That doesn't mean I don’t think there are no problems. 1 would like to see at least one bus being run part time on Saturday and Sunday. I can sense there is a need for it.” Student complaints about the schedule have concerned the lack of weekend service, the scanty weekday service and the times at which the buses leave. McGill said that those times were chosen after looking at the summer course listings and seeing when and where the most classes were being held. He said that the largest need was the Main Street to Amherst route, and Ridge Lea is least in demand. For that reason, the departure times at Ridge Lea are roughly once an hour. Statistics on rideiship during June show an average of 8S8 passengers daily bound for Amherst, 762 for Main Street and 293 for Ridge Lea. ' , ’ ; Ellicott residents stranded A petition to provide weekend bus service has been started in Ellicott. So far, more than 70 people have signed the petition. Approximately 350 people are living there this summer. According to Resident Advisor Esther Katzman, students are getting very restless on weekends. “It’s very dull and boring here,” she said. “My floor is unbelievably quiet. They’d really like some activities.’’ Others have expressed concern that during the hot months ahead, students cooped up in Ellicott over the weekend may turn to vandalism. There is also no health service at Ellicott on weekends. Student Association Executive Vice President Andrew Lalonde has sent a letter to University President Robert Ketter decrying the current busing situation, asking Ketter to try and provide the necessary changes. Lalonde also noted in his letter that "complaints have been met with the response that bus service is a 'luxury.' and we, as students should feel lucky with what wc have.*' Lalonde went on to say that bus service is an “obligation.” Lalonde met with Assistant to the President Ron Stein on Wednesday to discuss the busing situation further, and Lalonde indicated that he would present Stein with the petition at their meeting. Results of the meeting were not known at press time. The fall semester may also pose problems for bus riders. Blue Bird Bus Lines is raising their rates by 32 percent, compounding the budgetary problems. Regarding scheduling. McGill said that a computer study was being used, to help pinpoint the times of maximum ridership, so morfe buses could be scheduled for those times. Keeping Bluebird hours contract. In more recent developments, NFG rejected a later union offer to accept the changed work rules and sick leave in exchange for a February contract date. The company also rejected calls by the union for an end to the strike through binding arbitration, wherein a mutually agreeable third body composed of government figures would mediate the strike. Their decisions would be binding on both parties. Union officials felt that recent court rulings banning unemployment benefits'for those jobless as the result of a “labor dispute*’ would have no effect on the IBCW job action, since appeals are planned. The ruling was the result of a Bell Telephone suit against its workers who had received benefits after their eighth week on strike. National Fuel’s workers became similarly eligible in mid-April. . . Union officials declare the that second overwhelming rejection of the best company offer has greatly strengthened their negotiating hand, but cannot predict an end to the dispute. Greco said the rejection meant the membership “isn’t even satisfied with what we won in the area of wages and benefits." One worker explained: “I might have taken that six percent in February, except for the work rule changes. But I’ve lost $3000 from being out, and the company’s the one that has it. I’m getting it back.’* National Fuel is operating through the use of 300 supervisors, many from its Pennsylvania branch. Bills to customers have remained unchanged, despite persistant demands by consumer groups and some politicians that NFG give a rebate on the “excess profits’’ gained during Buffalo's vicously cold winter, and from the opportunity the strike provfdes for lower labor costs. The company recently announced a 22 percent increase in first half profits over last Initial ‘dry orientation set to begin at the EUicott Complex ’ the including this training, and characteristics of a “good helper,” revamped under new director Joe designed to give them a better Krakowiak.

Long (trike begins There has been some community support for The long NFG strike began in middle February when union members voted six to one against the the strikers. The People’s Power Coalition, a local final company offer of a one year, six percent group working for municipal ownership of NFG, has increase in wages, no increase in benefits, and a demanded that the gas company’s profits be used to clause that negotiations on second year wage fill union contract demands. And demonstrators increases would be predicated on a “re-evaluation” from Women United for Action, another Buffalo of job categories and assignments. Christopher consumer group, once joined strikers on the Greco, president of striking IBEW Local 2199, said, picketline. Health Service hours axed , "... our people would have taken the six percent. But they Just didn’t know what this evaluation stuff meant. They figured they’d lose jobs and have pay reduced due to job reclassifications and the like.” Greco saql the company was attempting to entirely eliminate work rules for its Buffalo employees, and that this had already been accomplished at its Pennsylvania subsidiary. After the strike’s thirteenth week, the IBEW took the “.dangerous” step of presenting what they inadequate cpntract to the considered an membership, responding to company allegations that the union was keeping its members on strike registered special presents problems. “Registration is a function of the quality of the people you hire,” the Director said. He added that while some subscribe to the theory of hiring fully trained specialists, he prefers to select trainees that have the potential to bf effective aides, and then train them in his approach. The same students who work as aides during the summer will be available during registration in the fall to answer questions about scheduling, as an extension of Krakowiak’s concept of “ongoing orientation.” new students to take part in class discussions. “One of the problems in general is that freshmen don’t seem to have enough knowledge to be able to ask the questions they should be asking,” he observed. The new concepts will hopefully alleviate this, he added. In explaining the decision to run a dry orientation, Krakowiak noted that half the attending students are under 18. “There is a greater awareness of the alcohol problem on he campus,” commented. “We don’t want people to think this is two and a half days of parties.” The sessions begin June 27 and run through August 5. Tours of all three campuses will be included, along With a visit to the Off-Campus Housing Office. “We recognize the reality that people will eventually move off campus,” Krakowiak said.

However, Sherman believes the company is “hiding” profits by paying extra taxes in this period. “It’s a question of where they are burying their money,” he claimed. The firm’s distributing company, which is under federal regulation, is operating at its maximum 17 per cent profit clip. Based on these suspicions, NYPIRG submitted a petition on May 20th calling for the PSC to conduct an audit of NFG’s books, to open those books to NYPIRG, to hold public hearings on the cross including matter ' I % ’* State University of New York at Buffalo about $500,000 weekly due to the strike which has not been reflected in consumer bills. ••Hfc 10 June 1977 Alfred Kahn, chairman of Public Service Commission, at meeting with Assemblyman Arthur O.

Delia and Ketter lobby for Amherst construction by John H. Reiss are totally insufficient for the physical education needs of this University. Managing Editor In an effort to get construction of the proposed Amherst gym started as soon as possible, Student Association (SA) President Dennis Delia accompanied University President Robert Ketter to Albany Tuesday to meet with state legislators. Delia had discussions with several legislators including State University Construction Fund (SUCF) Vice Chancellor for Campus Development O.C. Lanford, Marketing and Research Manager E.W. Stevens and Campus Planning Supervisor J. Papa. The results of the meetings were not available at press time. Before leaving for Albany, Delia claimed the meetings would be of paramount importance for the future of the Amherst gym. He expressed a firm resolve to convince the legislators that facilities for recreation on the Amherst Campus are intolerable. He has repeatedly explained to state officials, including Governor Hugh Carey (by letter see editorial page, this issue of The Spectrum) and Representative Stanley Stiengut (in person) that Clark Hall, a facility designed for a student body of 3000, and the Kctterpillar (The Bubble), a “temporary” structure, — Must join forces “This could be a big breakthrough as far as the gym is concerned,” Delia said Friday. “We must convince the people like Langford that the gym is a must.” Delia admitted that his primary task is to comflnce Ketter that the gym should be a priority on the construction agenda. “If we join forces, I don’t see how we can fail,” he remarked. The first phase of gym construction is presently slated to begin in April of 1978, The early groundbreaking of that phase was made possible by the purchase of $15.6 million in Housing Finance Agency (HFA) bonds by the firm of Homblower and Weeks. Earlier this year, those bonds had been the subject of considerable controversy when Marine Midland Bank, Liberty National Bank and Manufacturers and Traders (MAT) refused to buy S3 million in short term HFA bonds. Purchase of the bonds had been required by the State Division of the Budget as a local sign of support for Amherst Campus Construction. Amid threats of boycotts and other retaliatory actions by students and labor leaders. ' the three banks eventually agreed to buy the bonds Some uncertainty The gym has been designed as a two phase complex. Phase I will feature a field house which will include a large playing floor, seating for 10,000 people, a lecture Hall and a locker area. Phase II, considered to be the more important since it will house the gymnasium and natatorium, will include a triple gym, squash courts, handball courts, a swimming pool, a diving pool, classrooms, and a spectator and press area. Unfortunately, there is some uncertainty surrounding the starting date for Phase II construction. Presently, Delia feels that he and Ketter would have to agree that the gym is the number one priority if work on Phase II is to commence in April. However, the SA President is hopeful that Federal funds will be made available in the near future. If such is the case, it is reasonably certain that construction on both phases will begin simultaneously. -The gym will be built just east of the academic spine, where Millersport Highway is presently located. Once construction begins, Millersport Highway will be temporarily relocated and eventually eliminated in favor of a traffic circle which will surround the campus. �examined �Boredom vs: intimacy Summer session greeted here with mixed reviews than going home and praying for a job.

Page three �1 fr »'"l C:f 4 What is important enough to merit the first line, of the first editorial of the first summer issue of The Spectrum ? The second line? For openers, on Wednesday the Buffalo Evening News quoted President Robert Ketter as calling the Amherst Campus "essentially a non-functional facility." He and SA President Dennis Delia met in Albany with the Buffalo delegates to the State Legislature to press for funding of three UB construction projects. Keller's use of the word "nonfunctional" must be questioned. The projects on the line include a $9.2 million field house and recreation center, a $4.4 million audio visual center and an $8.8 million music performing arts center. Any efforts,* especially those of Delia who has been very adament about the construction of the recreational facility, Editor’s note: The following letter was written by Student Association President Dennis Delia and sent to Governor Hugh Carey. \ To Governor Carey: For many years students have been patiently awaiting an end to the construction moratorium and an end to the intolerable conditions we must endure to get an education at this institution. I’ve talked with legislators, officials of the Construction Fund, and the Board of Trustees telling them how urgently we needed an athletic facility, student activity space, and most important, adequate classroom and study space. Yet never before has our need been greater than in this year of transition. This year the 14,000 undergraduate students are being asked to occupy a campus barely 50% complete; with inadequate athletic, recreational and activity space. The campus is so bare, students refer to it as “no man’s land.” We have often asked our elected officials to recognize our critical problem here and have often .been given assurances that they recognized our needs and what was required to adequately provide for those needs. Those assurances gave us hope. Yet subsequent decisions took away that hope. The student organizations of this campus, which provide many necessary services and activities vital to the students here at U.B., are moving to a new student union at Amherst this Summer. This new union has only 35% of the space of the student union we now occupy, and all our organizations are asking me what is going to happen to them when we move. What can I say? Organizations such as our The Spectrum (the campus newspaper). University Press, Speakers Bureau, University Union Activities Board, Legal Services, Ethnic Clubs, Family Planning Clinic, the Community Action Corps, one of the largest student run community action organizations of its kind in the nation, and countless other services and activities space from which to operate. This is are left a vdfy siivfcre crisis to' all the student governments at ' this University, As the transition to the Amherst Campus progresses, substantially more students will be required to take courses and do research there. Yet there are no study areas or classroom areas that will come close to meeting the academic needs of the ' must be commended, but will completion of these projects make the Amherst Campus any more functional in the short term sense of the word? That is, what can be done to relieve the discomforts of getting to and from the campus, of finding the right classrooms and most importantly of living there? For example, the... Oh wait a minute. Welcome to summer session at UB, or The Summer Place, as it is labeled in the course description paper. Most of the photos in that publication suggest an air of rest and relaxation. Who can argue with that? On the front page, however, is an image of the Ellicott Complex, taken from across Lake Lasalle, deceptively exaggerating the lake's length or breadth. The photo dramatizes EiHcotfs isolation, making it appear stuck in the middle of nowhere, which it is. The cover of the class schedule portrays a group of people sitting hunched over on a hard brick wall somewhere on the plaza in Ellicott, rather stuck in the middle of like lying on a bed of nails 'nowhere. jjj Summer session is no more of a joke than the fall and spring semesters. The pace of classes is accelerated; therefore, the work load can be demanding, at feast in that most students are going home with assignments every night instead of two or three nights a week. In general* however, everyone has more time to pursue his leisures, however they be defined, which is Why most people are friendly and more inclined to mingle with others instead of confining themselves to their rooms and wishing it were summer. This exceptional attitude should be taken advantage of whenever the occasion to let loose arises, whether it be at the Albright-Knox Museum, the Studio Arena or Kleinhans Music Hail, or at a Toronto Btuejays baseball game, at the Tralfam adore Cafe, in Delaware Park, or at the Allerkown Arts Festival this weekend, at Bay Beach over the border, at a milk machine or in a bathtub, or even at a mellow, unassuming bar like Anacone's Inn on Bailey Avenue. Who can argue with back to construction for the moment. A few signs in front of buildings and maybe a small lounge in die basement or on the first floor of Clemens Hall would be of immediate help.

The need for adequate recreational aifd athletic facilities has been emphasized time and time again. I have stressed to the Construction Fund the imperative need to overcome the bureaucratic tieups and difficulties. Recently, a Head Resident Advisor wrote to the University newspaper, The Reporter stating that a gross lack of recreational facilities at Amherst was partially responsible for a growing alcohol problem there. Over 53% of the total number of students attempting to register in Physical Education classes were closed out this year. Unless you are extremely lucky you must be a Senior or Junior in order to complete your requirement of taking two (2) credits of Physical Education courses in order to graduate. This is a time, though, when you want such requirements behind you. Every year literally thousands of students participate in extensive Intramural and recreational programs that require athletic facilities. Our present gym is so inadequate that most of these programs must be handled with a reservation system that delays actual activity for days until space is available. Our present gym was built for a .student population of about 3000. Now it must accommodate 15,000 students. Even with our “Bubble” this situation is unendurable. One group of students that will be having even more problems are the commuters who, making up 60% of the student population, will have no place on that huge campus to partake in activities and become a viable part of the University. I have presented to you gentlemen the reality of what faces the students at U.B. next year. You are asking us to be students at a campus that doesn’t exist. I feel that in this year of transition, there is nothing to be proud of. You are asking for the impossible, if you ask us to accept the Amherst Campus as it is now, and tell us nothing can be done. The situation will become increasingly worse unless IMMEDIATE measures am taken to complete the construction of this campus. 1 urge you in the strongest possible terms to do all you can to release the construction funds and end the bureaucratic delays. Thank you for your time. - Dennis Delia Points and counterpoints ... * growing number of students at Amherst. What do we as well as die associated activities in the United States. With regard to this matter, both the points that we should not tolerate such activities (The Spectrum, April 2$, April 29, May 6 and May 9, 1977) and counterpoints that attempted to confuse the issue (The Spectrum, May 4, and May 16, 1977) have been well expressed. Now, let us further stress and substantiate oar position against such a toleration. v The points that we should not tolerate any continued KMT activities here and now have been formed on substantiated grounds. Utmostly, such internationally interfering activities are flagrant violation of national freedom and human rights, as well as the internal security act and peace maintenance of the United State|l%ny alien secret agents enacting such activities, when caught, will be immediately deported. Just to mention here in one ease, 15 KMT agents disguised as the Taiwan University students and thus enrolled at MIT resigned and retreated before they were expelled and deported as a result of their engagement in top-secret spying missions, including surveillance and intimidation acfcvffitfon campus. While here, the “visit” of Hsia, which has initiated the issue o f the present debate, has, in fact, undisclosedly attempted to sensitize and organize a handful of the subversive KMT elements to update their spying missions, but in vain. This may be, fortunately, due to the fact that our much enforced, absolute academic freedom of this University has undoubtedly brooded our awareness and international understanding to such a situation that, apparently, the KMT’s slimy tentacles can no longer nowadays infiltrate among this Community. However, regardless of this fact, we should be always aware of their potential reactivations on campus. In conclusion, we therefore hope that in the future, any KMT sympathizers, should they debate in opposition' to our position against their tolerations, will do so directing to the issue, and not, as previously shown, repeatingly raise the many ilhisionary questions of the right, the responsibility, the politicosensitivity, and even the ethicality of our self-evident statements, in all attempts to confuse the issue. Should any of the surveillance and intimidation activities be continuously carried out by the KMT subversives here and now, they are, in fact, the utmost unrighteous, irresponsible, as well as non-ethical political actions against the freedom and basic human rights of their own people, including students and workers, coming from Taiwan as well as all the overseas Chinese and American peoples, who strongly abide to the peaceful co-existence of the Law and Orders of the United States. We thus enforcingly oppose all forms of toleration to the KMT’s international, immoral, subversive political v actions. Thank you cfr your kind attention in this matter. Wishing you a pleasant summer. - > Mong Heng Tan, Chairman China Study Group GSA - Page four The Spectrum.

Already this city maintains a critically acclaimed symphony orchestra conducted by young talent Michael Tilson Thomas, several large avenues for ever popular rock and roll concerts, and even the correct intimacies for a soaring Jazz stand. Buffalo has proved that it can support the major and most offering the area creative and potentially viable recording artists. With the immense talent and stage awareness that these bands have displayed, it would even be feasible to print our own sort of Love at C.B.G.B/S-, or possibly a compilation of this area's best music. A record of this nature would not only break Buffalo wide open, it would emphasize quality relations between Buffalo musicians and club owners, a factor that would surely advance the state of this art. Most importantly what this fuss alludes to-is that on any given occasion one may venture forth and locate a more than adequate hot spot, which caters to your favorite musical tastes. Articulate jazz, good time folk, bluegrass, rag time, low slung blues, bladder bleeding rock and roll, even delicate chamber music; we are sadly lacking in Latvian minstrels, the city is thriving on most of the musical forms that you crave.

Names like Pete Rugolo, Art Pepper, June Christy, Cuban Fire, Laura, Lonely Woman, and Dakota Station popped in and out of the light and the Capitol Label. Down Beat and Metronome kept an eye on everything. The Kenton band was bom during the war years, and became a bone of contention among jazz partisans. In the 40s the clash of adulation and invective stormed up anywhepe. In 1956 Maynard Ferguson, who arranged for Kenton, contributed the trumpet solo on Kenton’s Concerto To End AH Concertos album (Capitol AL2-724). That impossible breaking of boundaries never leaves the mind. Continuing today, Maynard can be experienced achieving notes you can't even hear without a keen canine earl In the50's Ferguson was doing jazz a la Kenton. His first band had much of th$ Kenton sound. Eventually an effort to get away from the cool frenetics of' the Kenton influence became apparent. For tha past few years Firgtisbrt has been going for a more disco sound with a defined Latin beat, only reminiscent of Kenton’s Afro-Cuban rhythms Kenton's on hotter.

Maynard blew a few high ones and began with the nervous "Chameleon." He was backed, heavily by the brats section which grooved in feats of alternating double and triple tonguing.

Mike Migliore was the first soloist of the evening. Mike, from Atlantic City, New Jersey, is a graduate of the Interlochen Academy and Indiana University. He was featured with Kenton, but Ferguson offered more money so he switched. Peter Erskine was on drums. Mark Colby out of Miami University, was on tenor and soprano sax. The electric piano, Moog snythesizer, and other electric neutrons were handled by Harry Abraham from Eastman. Biff Hannon from Minneapolis, also a graduate of Eastman, played bass guitar.

The multi-talented Mosel I o is primarily a trumpeter. - Spirited After what seemed an eternity, a member of the band took the stage and told the anxious audience, ‘The boss is not ready yet." People moved their chairs around and lit cigarettes. Shortly thereafter Maynard was introduced as "The World's Greatest Trumpeter." Some people would argue the point, just that but no one seemed to want to do it at moment. Ferguson was his usual spirited self in white Holding back The next selection for the evening was "Primal Scream" written by Ferguson and Jay Chattaway, from the album of the same name (Columbia AL 33953). The intricate solo on bass guitar by "Cut Man" Johnson lagged, then was picked up by the drummer while the band clapped hands. Building toward a climax, but not quite, Johnson sustained his position with cool objectivity, then passed it to Mosello who sustained it on bongos while the drummer furnished cymbal accompaniment. The sound at Eduardo's is not as good as at the Executive. The band seemed to be holding back due to lack of space. The piece continued to amble on with not very striking effect, when Maynard redeemed it with wobbly sophistication mixed with sharp clarity and full tones, moving toward —continued on page 8— 1 Whan the internationally acclaimed progressive rock group Genesis was looking for a city in which to break their latest single, "Your Own Special Way," they did not choose their native London.

With the self-induced anesthetic aroma permeating, the first piercing notes transformed the audience into mindless, emotional beings: dancing in place, waving cowboy hats and thrusting longhorn signs emphatically, in hopes of gaining recognition.

Dinah Washington and others. Flora mastered her native Bossa Nova, and had a string of hit singles and albums to prove it But she felt the need for the move to the U.S. As she explained in halting English, "I was in love with jazz music. I wanted to hear person-to-person Carmen Macrae, and Gil Evans I used to idolize his (Evans) work for Miles Davis." Purim later had magical.

Aleo it was the only time Flora ever played to a college audience. It was a rewarding experience for Purim to see the open-armed acceptance of an audience that contained soldiers in the legion of rock. "I think if all young people promote, acknowledge, and participate in concerts like they did there's going to be* a beautiful growth in American culture." The culture gap that may exist was narrowed definitely at the show. Airto proved to be a great emcee and certainly one of the more energetic percussionists. Without a doubt, 15/8 tempo was a new one for many listeners. Flora's voice floated and weaved, aided by the efforts of an echoplex mike through numbers including "500 Miles High" and the title of her late, "Nothing Will Be As It Was Tomorrow". The show climaxed with "Tombo," a number that found the entire eight-piece company dancing, stomping, using only and percussion to create the melodies, it was wild, it was hot, and it was distinctly Flora. When it was mentioned to Flora that Stevie Wonder was a follower of her music, she reeled off several other artists that had come to her performances: Paul McCartney. Mick Jagger, Ray Charles and other giants of all previously of ir. music. And this represents the unheard correctional facilities.

Bryan Ferry, in Your Mind (Atlantic) Lately, it has become very stylish, very chic for record critics to pan anything released ''by Bryan Ferry. The reasons for this are many fold. Many hold Ferry's ego responsible for the (alleged) permanent dissolution 6f Roxy Music. Others cannot come to grips with his intellectualism, terming it either smug or pretentious. Whatever the reasons, the volley of criticism heaped on Ferry's latest release is unfortunate, for It is easily his most accessible effort to date. In Ydur Mind could be the album to break him in the States, provided that his potential new fans are not scared away by any bad press, Perhaps the most important reason for the album's success is the lack of self indulgence on Ferry's part, Although he wrote or co—wrote all of the eight songs on In Your Mind, he shows less of a tendency to lapse into the excesses that plagued his earlier efforts, during which time he primarily covered the material of other songwriters. The -result is a recording that is as listenable and likeable as Siren or Country Life. Side one opens with the album's two weakest cuts: "This Is Tomorrow" and "AH Nl{*t Operator." "This Is Tomorrow" is essentially a carbon copy of "Let's Stick Together," but it lacks the blinding brilliance and driving power that made its predecessor so popular in Great Britain. ''AH Night Operator" has similar flaws, and also suffers from a repititious melody line and a ippmpletely inadequate arrangement. Despite the shortcomings of these two songs, it would be unfair to say that they are bad; they just don't compare well with the rest of the material ‘on the album And the rest of the material on the album is first rate. From the pensive, controlled "One Kiss" to the subtle melancholy of the title tune. Ferry gives an impressive Want To Talk About - Page ten The Spectrum Friday, 10 June 1977 . . Cat Stevens, Izitso? (A&M) Funny how angry love can be at times. You can hold a like an autonomous clean pen, a clean sheet of paper slate. When people's records stymie me, I look to my original copy of Emerson's essays. It's dog-eared; the 1830s were a long time ago. How he knew creativity) The binding's coming apart like the boom-booming of the words; "The best pictures can easily tell us their last secret." I hope I haven't told my last secret behind a dim witted tree, behind its back. Does such a tree have,a back? Cat Stevens might have asked that. I could understand the rhetoric of Numbers. Cat's last album. He was pursuing creativity but did not reach many people. I appreciated the bad apple gas of self-indulgence; the fog then rqlled in on little cat feet. How esoteric. Cat's latest contribution, Izitso?, is an exercise in autonomy rather than self-indulgence. The former is more controlled-creatively produced to relate to those who want to feel this thoughts. Stevens has never sold out to the bogie of commercialism and this is due to his realization of innovative writing. From the days of Deram and Very Young and Early Peas to early 70s singer-songwriter heydaze to now, the Teaser has kept his individuality. That can become blase to some folks. The philosophic ballad ala 'Peace Train,' is conceived id "Child For A Day" — / was a child Who ran full of laughter / was a child who lived for a day My eyes full of sunshine My heart full of smiles / was a child for a day. It means so much more to me today than "Peace Train" ever did. Maybe it's because Cat's older and wiser Or am I? The melody is fine, the piano meaningfully played, ending the song appropriately, abruptly. Like gawky, stalky teen years. Cat's enigma is found in remembering the fantasy, while living the damn reality. Another reminiscence is "Old Schoolyard" in which Cat trades off vocals with Elkie Brooks ala "Don't Go Breakin' My Heart." Elkie's been around for quite a long time since Beatles Christmas show in '64—'65 to Vinegar Joe with Robert Palmer and her ill-fated splo album in late '75. Cat and Elkie will have a winner if they release this pop-oriented tune. And we all want to win don't we? Trick your tail, kiddies, high, proud up in the air. The familiar Cat Stevens' energy is protrayed in the mellow-hard rocker, "Bonfire." Drum volume is raised and Cat pours bunches of syllables into each line to divulge” feelings of violent emotion. Cat has to reveal all aspects of love in a few short minutes; his energy pulls it off nicely. The song is his love, his expression, his need: ... feel so weak, yea, can't sleep without you there to hold me. Promise me you won’t ever leave, or I would die so coldly. Kiss me with your eyes, please don ft it rain, v Don't kick no dust on my Bonfire. / You, the purpose of Trane's presence/ hopefully, cur's.

' performance. The songs are not the best he has written, but they are good, and, even more importantly, their quality is consistent. It is difficult to say that one cut is better or worse than another, although there are a few that have lodged permanently in this reviewer's memory. "Love Me Madly Again" is one of these. Ferry's brooding, almost vindictive delivery is accentuated by an arrangement as peculiar 4nd unique as his voice. Phil Manzanera and Ann Odell contribute significantly to this background Manzanera with his angular, unpredictable guitar solos and Odell with her brilliantly executed string — arrangements. Also notable is "Party Doll," but for different reasons. - On a Saturday night in this wild world you won't get hurt by the oh, so very young teen commerce of Izitso? Especially with the pop jazz Doc, Chick Corea, on the two instrumental cuts, "Krypos" and "Was Dog A Doughnut."

Combining the early harmonies of the Beatles and the angular guitar sound of the Stones (circa Brian Jones) this second generation Frisco band produced one of the best pop/rock albums of 1976. It wasn't necrophilia, it was a buckshot of rhythm and blues. Sadly, the LP received little airplay jnd sold only in limited quantities, which gave Sire enough reason to drop the band from their label. The Groovies, nevertheless, found themselves adored by a cult of, serious addicts, similar to those they had nurtured when the Groovies were a boogie band back in the early, early seventies. To capitalize on this re-emergence, Buddah has issued the semi-biographic/ half live Still Shakin', which presents the band in the earlier frame of their illustrious career. Side one is an accumulation of tracks from the stupendous Teenage Head and Flamingo LP's, and shows more get down than on their most recent pop approaches. Really, Still Shakin' is a supercharged gift with many dividends. "Doctor Boogie" is one of the finest excursions into readhouse raunch since Jim Morrison took his stab. The song 'Teenage Head" emerges as the wonderful adolescent anthem that it is, always relaying the simple but exciting pyrotechnics of the Groovies. The recording even marks the vinyl debut of Commander Cody. Side two will invariably have record collectors drooling in the aisles of their favorite suburban record botiques. The set is live, rare and taken from 1971 recording sessions. Hear them rework Buddy Holly's 'That'll Be the Day" and Gene Vincent's "Rockin' Pneumonia and the Boogie Woogie Flu." There's even a touch of the berrychuck with superb masterings of "Around and Around" and the inevitable garage band classic "Louie i.ouie." Primitive in its state, one not yet as self conscious as thteir new punk stance, this album is a must. As of yet something to do with ex-Groovie there is no release Cyril Jordan suing for misrepresentation but what ever you have to do, be it beg, borrow, or steal, get a hold of this album. -DimitriPapadopoulos — — — John Cale, Guts (Island) In retrospect it seems fairly ironic having to identify John Cale, especially in light of the fact that Guts is a greatest hits package. Vet Gale's bass playing and technical guidance in the original Velvet Underground has always been overshadowed by Lou Reed's snowed-over decadence and Andy Warhol's big bucks and camp media connections. In fact John,Cale's dumpy composure has always been approached in a low keyed fashion. His ice box production work on Patti Smith's Horses, the critically acclaimed and now very rare first effort by the Modern Lovers, and countless others has garnered him raves from only an eclectic variety of record buyers. Similarly his long slew of cyanide solo works have spent Phil Collins and ex-Jim Kewskln jug band member Geof Muldaur the one that parried luscious Maria. But to make a point of comparison. Guts is never luscious. A doom laden spectre weaves intricate melodies and power surges that are as bleak as a holocaust, and why not? Gale acknowledges that "Fear is a Man's Best Friend." Even the cool "Helen of Troy" is a razor edge composition set against the frightening scenario of a chalk white marbel bust. As for the rest of the LP, "Dirty Ass Rock and Roil" is exactly that and "Heartbreak Hotel" and "Pablo Picasso" are the killer covers. Unlike other historical documents, which tediously rehash past and pompous pilgrimages. Guts stands out. Greatest hit albums derive from commerical aspriations, but while Guts won't make Cale wealthy, it may credit his otherwise erratic discography with one well rounded effort. -DimitriPapadopoulos — The Tubes, The Tubes Now (A&M) This record bothers me to no end. Just when it looked as if the Tubes would follow their second album with one that would surpass the halfway decent mark, they have fallen back to zero. The Tubes, an eight-man one-woman outfit from San Fransisco, are best known for their superb shows and the near-classic, "White Punks on Dope." After listening to a couple of Tubes albums and seeing them perform, there is a gap as observable as the one in Keith Richards' teeth. Musically, they are average or worse, but it is what tfiey do with it live that makes them exciting. The stage turns into an elaborate, choreographed, constumed hard-rock musical, even utilizing a marvelous system of video projections. The Tubes Now continues in their tradition of poor music except this time, they're consistently terrible. A particular direction seemed to be taken on their last album, Young and Rich, which parodied popular culture, while that work contained a few songs that were clever and memorable (notably "Don't Touch Me There"), the newest is chaotic and non-creative. t The songs are got too far removed from Kiss' humdrum onslaught. They are non-sensical and don't appear to contain much thought. Most of the cranial process seems to have been made in the titles of the cuts themselves, which turn out to be the best things going for this album. You can sit around saying "Cathy's Clone" and "Pound of Flesh" to yourself for a couple of hours, but don't expect any musical revelations to arrive. Space the collector all things occupy mature (space-matter) mass. Size of tonal vibrational curved audio information always has a letter head. The melodic line the creator of logic-language.

Good talking about of Musical Creation Coltrane. —Leroy Jones — Dan Fogelberg, Nether Lands (Full Moon) Dan Fogelberg has experienced a large classical influence for this one, passing by mere string and horn charts for a swelling orchestra. There are also liner credits for (sic) Johann Sebastian, Peter llych, and Edvard Grieg. Still Fogelberg's best work is when his voice is given the lead role, when the texture and airiness that comes with dubbing and redubbing of his ethereal vocals floats above and around the surfaces of the instrumental tracks. While it's obvious that Nether Lands was supposed to Isomething of a portrait of the artist by a young man, the album works best when it’s less introspective and Fogelberg sings of love, both lust and lost. "Lonely survivors, these promises made" An intriguing change, when the method, rather than the madness, is discussed. Fleetwood Mac could cover "Love Gone By," with a chorus hook large enough to hang a double-neck Ibanez — Chalk up three producers for three albums too. The batting order is Al Kooper for the first, Ken Scott for the more-ambitious second and John -Anthony for the disastrous third. Anthony does the worsf job in production, mixing Fee Waybill, the lead singer, all the way out in front of everything else (the surface noise would have been better) and giving the whole album standards Edison could have beaten. Nobody can do justice for the Tubes, who can't do it for themselves either. I'm not even going to doubt that the fourth album will have a new producer. If they were smart, the Tubes would get some new people to write tunes for them, since they are digging their own musical grave. As far as this critip is concerned, I could play the record with a pick axe and get the same results. —Drew Reid Kerr John Coltrane Quartet, Creation (Blue Parrot) Art and science for the past 100 years has only danced with each other a few times.

The music on Guts (pronounced "goots" by one British gentleman affiliated with Island) falls into the category of musical punters turned posh through their intimacies with Bryan Ferry. Cale essentially ignores his Balloon Farm influences for a piece of Roxy.

It's unfortunate that the attempts with the orchestra are a bit overblown. It's ambitious, but so is Fogelberg's tackling almost all the instrumental and vocal chores {leaving room for Ken Buttrey, Don Henley, J.D. Souther, and producer Norbert Putnam to cover various spots). Arranger Dominic Frontiere almost understands his purpose on "False Faces" but misses it on "Sketches" and loses it completely on the title track. Nobody knows Fogelberg like Dan. So, nobody can arrange Dan like Fogelberg. His voice is his tool, and it would be interesting to see what he would construct under contract to none but himself. But for now (and it has been almost two years since Captured Angel), Nether Lands is quite satisfying. —Barbara Komansky — Friday, 10 June 1977 The Spectrum . .

Last year’s team, the first in club history, finished with a record of 56 wins and 64 losses and missed the playoffs by a mere one game. The playoff spot was not determined until the last game of the season when Buffalo lost to the now' defunct Pennsylvania dub; This loss enabled Chicago to make the playoffs. But this year, the team’s spirits are high because of the several Baseball Seton Hall eliminates Bulls Each of the past two years, the baseball Bulls have gone to post-season tournaments, only to return home as the runner-up. This year, Buffalo ran into-a strong Seton Hall team, and finished second of four teams at the EC AC District 2 Tournament, May 20-22 at Newark, Delaware. Buffalo surprised the host University of Delaware team in the tournament’s first game with a 10-7 victory. Senior Jack Kaminska hit his only career homerun in the fourth inning to spark the Bulls. But the big blow to the Bears was Buffalo’s seventh inning when six Bulls crossed the (Hate. Centerfielder John Pedersen's three nm homer led the Bulls’ rally.

Ninth inning rally average (raising his .303). Draft may include Bulls First-baseman Mike Dixon had the best season of any of the Bulls this year. In addition to hitting .457, which was fourth in the nation, Dixon attracted many pro scounts and, along with Casbolt, will probably be snatched in this week’s free-agent draft. Dixon had an operation performed on his right shoulder earlier this week to correct an injury which plagued him all year. and second baseman Mike Groh were selected to the NCAA District 2 All-Star team.Dixon set eight Buffalo career records, including homejuns (13), runs batted in (98) and total bases (224). Dixon also set season records for hits and total bases and tied the record for runs scored. Pedersen set the season record for at bats (153), and second baseman Mike Groh set the record for walks (season 35 and career 70). Casbolt set season records for wins (9), games (22), starts (12), complete games (6), inning (92.2) and strikeouts Page fourteen Ute Spectrum Friday, 10 June 1977 . average forty points to y The Bulls finished at 24-20, and did well after their Florida- trip. The team was extremely young -(with only three seniors and five juniors), but matured during the season. Coach Bill Monkarsh predicted at the start of the season that Buffalo would play .500 ball this year, “and then have a great season after that.” The Bulls appear to be ahead of Monkarsh’s predicted pace. This year, they set numerous records in addition to finishing four games over .500. Several players developed into fine ballplayers, including catcher Ganci and outfielders Pedersen and Jim Wofcik. Still others, such as freshman Scott Raimondo and Joe Vizzi looked very impressive at times. The Bulls did not lose heart though, and again beat Delaware 12-11. The game was called because of darkness, as righty Mike Betz had hurled Buffalo to a 10-5 lead, helped by catcher Phil Ganci’s homer. After the game resumed the next day, Buffalo tallied twice but Bull pitcher Jeff Gematt 'found himself in deep trouble and needed help from Rich Brooks to stop a six run Delaware rally in the ninth, and Buffalo held on to win. That victory meant Buffalo would have to play Seton Hall again. In what turned out to be the championship game, Buffalo hurt itself by leaving i eleven men on base. In the fourth, the Bulls had the bases loaded with only one man out, but failed to score. Seton Hall took the game 7-2, and advanced to the NCAA Regional playoffs. Ganci led the tournament in batting with a .692 (82). . season — — International Women's Association. v changes that have occurred during this, the league’s second year of existence. Professional Softball action, and, according to league officials, this is what the fains want to see. Cardillo, who led the league in homers last year, thinks the added four feet from the pitcher to the batter will benefit her. “The extra time for the ball to reach the plate will allow the hitter to get a better look at the ball. This will result in more base hits and fewer strikeouts. It will probably result in more homeruns because the batter will be better able to pull the ball,” explained Cardillo, who hopes to improve on her accomplishments of last season. Nikiel, the Breskis’ leading pitcher last year with a record of 30-17 and ERA of 2.14, said. “The pitchers will have to adjus^ to increased distance. We will have!! to try to hit spots and make hitters hit the pitch we want then*--? to hit. Timing and control will beto important pitchers; the especially for the first couple of>£ v weeks.” She thinks that the pitchers will be able to adjust but also agrees that there will be more J hitting also as a result of the new y New faces Due to financial woes, the association had to be reduced from the initial 10 teams to the present six (with the top four clubs making the playoffs). As a result, a dispersal draft was held in teams which the remaining selected players from the clubs that had folded. B reskis General Manager Tim Maloney feels that this draft did much to strengthen his club, “Although every team in the league will be a lot stronger we think that we strengthened ourselves the most,” he said. “We picked up several quality players in the dispersal draft.” Among Buffalo’s acquisitions were Pat Willis and Donna Schwenk, both pitchers, who had eamed-run averaged (ERA) of 1.42 and 1.99 and outfielder respectively Peterson, who had a batting average of .309 last year. The Breskis also picked pitcher Pat Stockman out of the college ranks. Stockman pitched her team change. college to softball Coach Carlson, who says k the “Little things make the difference championship this year.

In Committee To Respond To The this way, the Committee looked Academic Plan targets most of the for the University’s future in a blame for the plan’s deficits on the mirror image of the administrative Committee’s past.

It also precluded any philosophy point by point. study of the student body. Committee The Response makes clear the surprising extent of President Ketter’s ability to shape ‘Intellectual straigh(jacket’ the outcome of a report destined to “It is one of our strongest the much the with weight in disappointments carry University’s future, theoretically Committee’s reports and one conducted according to the best which they surely did not intend standards of academic objectivity. we should feel, that it seems to It chastises the Planning see only constraints, as if a tight Committee for failing to deal or a declining budget were intellectual an critically with the President’s necessarily charge, “not because they [the straigh tjacket.

The Academic Plan approved almost since he bacame almost completely forsakes the President in 1970. As last year’s value of education in itself, budget crisis intensified, Ketter without application to social apparently began to prepare by problem-solving technology. The the Planning says “collecting data for the Committee response he would appoint, and he took it Committee views the primary upon himself to decide how the social mission of the University as Committee should proceed, to the application of its technical describe the series of steps it should knowledge to the solution ot take to reach its conclusions, and social problems. The Committee’s reports are defined the scope of its vision. He to the trouble extraordinarily abstract. “No one also went immense to provide his own statement of the could guess from them that what goals and aspirations of the was being described was a real and University as “the first point of living institution of which the reference” for the Committee. authors had some first-hand knowledge.” Similar to its Failure of ommission omission of any discussion of The response likewise criticizes students, the Committee’s use ot the Planning Committee’s failure specialist literature on higher to question what it saw as education centers almost entirely ommissions in the President’s on literature of finance and charge: was this to be a long- or administration, with no reference short-term plan; what time period to significant recent works on the should it cover; what should the substance of University education. Its view is that of a “bureaucratic plan look like?

This inevitably led to pitfalls in indifference of public funding the Academic Plan, the response sources to higher education. The Planning Committee attempts to said. of save the University from financial By designing a process would, as Ketter starvation by showing that it is evaluation which had asked, reveal the strengths efficient and useful by directing and weaknesses of the University, its efforts toward instrumentalist primarily serving the Committee was destined to education confuse quantitative evaluation Western New York, and by accountable to with planning, and produce a plan remaining which makes the strong stronger administration. The response answers this by and the weak weaker. In analyzing the University by saying that this acceptance of the by Richard Korman Editor-in-Chief —“— financial pressures may “very rapidly turn the University into something not worth having at any price.” Extension of charge The Academic Planning Committee’s controversial recommendations, released last year in its Interim Report, include emphasis of the sciences and professional and graduate education (as did Ketter’s charge), termination of Tolstoy and Social Science College (Social Sciences College charter was revoked by Ketter this summer.), and a return to the five-course load. Although Ketter has never publically stated his opinion of the contact/credit hour system and course load, administrators and faculty familiar with his views say he favors revisions of the semester credit hour policy which would end the four-course load in the Humanities and Social Sciences. The response cushions ■ its Planning criticisms of the Committee by citing the difficult circumstances under which the Academic Plan was written, including time constraints and the problems( in planning itself. But the response also answers the virtually ■ all Planning Committee’s suggestions in the negative, and labels them as extensions of an overly-dogmatic instrumental outlook. Without saying so, the response finds the Academic Plan to be an extension ofKetter’s charge. Binghamton Four-course load retained by Dimitri Papadopoulos Contributing Editor The State University at Binghamton will retain its four-course load for at least two more years. Undergraduate Dean Sheldon Grebstein indicated An unprecendented, extensive Wednesday. evaluation of the system will be conducted during that period to determine the relative beneficial value of the four contacl/credit hour policy. this Contrary to administrative opinion University, Grebstein said that educators at oppose any change to the current system, which has been in existence. there since 1962, until a careful examination of the system can be completed The study will be conducted by the SUNY at Binghamton administration, and funded by the Binghamton SUNY Central Education Department. The four-course load was seriously threatened this summer when the SUNY Central Vice Chancellor for Academic Programs issued a memorandum formalizing the measure of a semester credit hour as the “Carnegie Unit.” Accepted as official SUNY policy, the memorandum decrees that students receive one credit hour for satisfactory completion of one 50-minute session of classroom instruction per week for 15 weeks, with several categories of exception. Binghamton is the only other SUNY school besides this University that maintains a four credit hour/three contact hour system. Meanwhile, administrators at this University are four-course load here, as no data which might suppor the present claiming they cannot justify the system has been undertaken since its institution in 1969. Additionally, a Faculty Senate subcommittee has recommended that the University restructure its present system granting academic credit to conform with the standards set by SUNY Central. The subcommittee suggested that this policy change-be completed by September 1977. Binghamton’s Grebstein said that, at the present time, the University’s administration, faculty and students are satisfied with the present system. One reason cited was that the smaller course load gave students more time to concentrate on work outside the classroom. He also said the change to a five the would diffuse students’ course load concentration over too broad an area of study. Students would also have more leisure time to participate in extracurricular activities related to major fields of study. “Such studies,” he plained, “would come in the form of laboratory research, community work, internships, honor programs and writing for the various student newspapers and literary publications.” While the Binghamton administration has not until now conducted any emprical study of the situation, Grebstein feels there is already evident justification for the system. He pointed out that under the present system students score “better than average” in standardized exams which include the law boards, medical boards, and the Graduate Record Examinations. “It (the four-course load) has been the tradition of other prominent universities such as Cornell and the University of Rochester to maintain a four-credit course sytem,” Grebstein emphasized. �questions of merit.” The case is now before the U.S. .Court of Appeals in Washington, D.C.

Drs. David Raskin, Gordon Barland and operating under a John Podlesney, grant from the National Institute $100,000 of Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice, conducted polygraph examinations of a number of criminal suspects referred to them by local police agencies. They compared results of lie detector tests with the opinions of five-member panels that included two defense attorneys, two prosecutors and the judge involved in each case. The panels concurred with the polygraph results 87 percent of the time.

Receiving a decidedly mixed reaction from the crowd of less than 200, Gallup said that the program would serve as a frontal attack on severe social injustices. “All 18-year-olds would be in a military or peace corp releated field for one year,” asserted Gallup. “It would serve as part of their education for the real world, training for the real world.” Calling on president-elect Jimmy Carter to “awaken America’s sleeping giant National Service,” Gallup added, “college students today have a very strong social conscience,” and that according to his polls, a large majority of young people favor his proposal.

One of their latest headaches has been caused by Gary Weissman, a former student at the University of Wisconsin in Madison, who is suing the agency for its refusal to hand over information obtained about him during a five-year investigation the CIA said was conducted for purposes of employment. Weissman has stated that he never applied for a job with the CIA. Weissman, who was active in National Student Association (NSA) activities while he was a student at the University in the late fifties, and also a friend of Tom Hayden, first requested the information in February 1975, after he read that the CIA was “making investigations on people slightly to the left of Attila the Hun.” He suspected the CIA might have information on him because of his background.

This allowance has not been applied to the student accounts as such, but rather is being used only as the limiting figure for registration. It is anticipated that the TAP administrative problems will be cleared up during the coming Spring. Students who are not receiving a TAP award are responsible for the full balance on their accounts and the students receiving awards less than the credit allowance are responsible for the differences The allowances, by type of registration, are as follows and derive from the highest TAP award likely to be made in each category.

Stating that, “Due process was violated by the Student Senate,” City College of New York President Robert Marshak has revoked suspension of The Campus, the school's largest newspaper. The suspension had been declared by the Senate, which charged the paper with maligning the characters of individuals, distorting the truth, and violating various sections of the college handbook. The Senate will meet Friday, when it is expected to charge The Campus with improprieties regarding its financial operations. “Whatever they ask us, we can “answer,” commented Dale Brichta, the paper’s editor-in-chief. atharine Cornell Theatre Opposition to operating fees Last July the Katharine Cornell Theater Advisory Committee decided to charge a fee of ten dollars for every hour of performance time and five dollars for every hour of rehearsal requiring a theater advisor. The fee was imposed to pay the salary of an operating technician. College B, the College of the Creative Arts and Crafts and the Student Association (SA) have expressed opposition to this policy. College B Spokesman Bob Baron said the College would like to bring jazz and rock concerts to the Amherst Campus but, because of the fee they will not be able to afford it. He said, “Money has somehow been found by the University to' sponsor classical concerts, but there is none available for the jazz and rock concerts that the students prefer.” SA Director of Student Affairs Lee Ferres said that the major complaint of the student body was that they were not asked for any input before the decision was made. He said the student organizations using the theater were not informed of the policy until August, after their budgets had already been submitted. After attending a meeting with the Katharine Cornell Advisory Committee where the fee policy was discussed, he felt the problem was not resolved. Peres said the University is “playing politics in * picking Classical that many outsiders attend,” explaining that these are funded by outside grants while College B (l productions are not. “College B should be able to hold the jazz and rock concerts without charging the student body,” he added. Carole Smith Petro has submitted a proposal to the committee of a progressive fee, based on the ability of the user to pay. Peres said he is not in favor of this proposal as it presently stands, adding however, that he would be in favor of a modified version of her proposal. Leonard Snyder, a member of the Katharine Cornell Advisory Committee said he is not aware of the progressive fee proposal. Snyder said that he was not aware of the possibility of another meeting being arranged and sees no change in the situation. He felt that the admission College B would have to charge to provide these events would pot be excessive. College B contends that Katharine Cornell is necessary for survival and space development of the College. They must sponsor events to “justify their existence as an educational upit.” College B feels it is being taxed unfairly, and they do not wish to charge the student body admission to these events.

Page three �Surveillance in the U.S.: the FBI makes assumptions by Paul Krehbiel Contributing Editor Editor's note: This is the second of three articles about government surveillance of American citizens. The author recently received over fifty pages from a file that the FBI has been keeping on him for seven years. To the FBI, it is a short step from opposing the Vietnam War capitalism. When many of us understood the real reasons for U.S. involvement in Vietnam, it was an easy step to take. From there, one naturally looks for a solution, which many of us saw in socialism. So, the FBI reasoned that it must keep files on anyone who might possibly become a socialist or communist at a later date, whether or hot they ever did. Anyone who is critical of any U.S. government policy, institution or practice, is suspicious and must be spied on. What underlies this paranoid fanatical fear is their anticommunism. Marx and Engles wrote 128 years ago in the Communist Manifesto that it was high time that Communists openly published their views in order to meet “this nursery tale of the spector of communism. to opposing Social appropriation “The distinguishing feature of -Wine & Communism is not the abolition of property generally,” they Wrote, “but the abolition of bourgeois property.” Simply, this means the abolition of the condition where socially produced wealth is privately appropriated. The solution is for socially produced wealth to be socially appropriated. The Communists to this explain have had continuously ever since. But it is hard for the Communists to make known their views if they are constantly spied hounded or outlawed. on, Anti-communism serves as a justification for FBI surveillance of the American people of Communists and non-communists alike. It is the smokescreen that is hauled out to cover assaults on every progressive movement that comes along. FBI surveillance of these groups is carried out because of alleged Communist influence. Such was the case with the anti-war movement. The FBI noted that I attended meetings of the People’s Coalition for Peace and Justice (PCPJ), one of the country’s largest anti-war organizations. They wrote that I participated in a PCPJ sponsored demonstration against the war in downtown Buffalo on May 5, 1971. PCPJ organized the anti-war demonstrations in Washington in 1971, where 13,000 people were for acts of civil arrested disobediance.

Fiedler John Logan Jennifer Regan Raymond Federman Albert Cook Irving Feldman Sally Anderson Fiedler Judith Kerman William Sylvester and many others But the FBI was interested in PCPJ for more reasons than its opposition to the war in Vietnam. The FBI wrote in my file that headquartered in PCPJ was Washington, D.C. and consisted of “over 100 organizations which are using civil disobediance to combat racism, poverty, repression, and war.” PCPJ was formed in December 1970 by former members of the National Mobilization Committee to End the War in Vietnam, and other forces previously outside the anti-war movement. (The National Mobilization Committee was the major national anti-war organization, and had brought over one million people to Washington in November 1969 to protest the war.) After the National Student Strike of 1970, many anti-war activists saw the need to link up the anti-war movement with the growing opposition to domestic economic problems and political repression. An important aspect of PCPJ’s work was to show the relationship between the huge military budget and the deterioration of living standards at home. Political repression National demonstrations were also organized by PCPJ to demand freedom for Angela Davis (a leader of the Black Liberation •movement and a Communist), and the Harrisburg 8 (anti-war activists charged with disrupting the Selective Service System). organized PCPJ also demonstrations at stockholders meetings of corporations, like General Electric, International Telephone and Telegraph (ITT), Honeywell and Standard Oil, who profiting were from war production, and it gave support to activities sponsored by the Rights National Welfare Organization, and the labor movement. The Buffalo PCPJ organized demonstrations and collected petitions for peace. It also helped mobilize hundreds of people to march in Albany to protest the massacre of inmates and guards at Attica Prison in 197.1, and urged the dropping of all charges against the inmates. anti-war Five of eleven Communist Party leaders who were indicted under the Smith Act in 1948. From left, William Z. Foster (steelworker organizer separated from trial due to ill health); Benjamin J. Davis (former New imprisoned); Eugene Dennis (Party Chairman York Councilman imprisoned); Henry Winston (Black leader blinded by prison neglect); and JohnWilliamson (CIO organizer deported to Great Britain). - - - - - The FBI is also concerned about people who travel to socialist countries. On another page of my file the FBI wrote; “Op January 18, 1971, it was learned that the was interviewed and subject tentatively accepted to travel to Cuba with the Fourth Contingent of the Venceremos Brigade (VB).” The FBI document explained that the VB was formed in 1969 by to organizations New Left student journalist trip arranged by the VB. ‘Dangerous’ facts But before that, I traveled to the Soviet Union on a two-week tour sponsored by the National Council of Soviet American Friendship. When I returned in January of 1974, I published three articles about the trip in The which Spectrum, the FBI mentioned in their file on me. The wrote: “These articles “encourage American youth to FBI many contain facts concerning the travel to Cuba in defiance of a ban on travel to that country by the Soviet Union and are most United States Department of complimentary towards the Soviet State.” The FBI continued, saying Union.” That is true.

It also deals with the Committee’s upe of data and some of the biases which resulted from a tendency to remain "within traditional boundaries and conservatisms. 1 We feel that serious defects in the Committee’s reports are a consequence of its not having questioned its charge. It did not question the sequence of events established by the President, or his definition of it as both a goal-defining and an evaluative body; it did not for itself distinguish between short and actions long-term goals, and objectives; accepted it the pressures to express its evaluations of departments and programs (in 1R) in essentially quantitative terms; it did not always pursue the implications of the questions it was asked to resolve or which occurred to it in formulating its report; it agreed to see the programs academic of the University in isolation from the facilities and resources on which they depend. If, in fact, the Committee did not quarrel with its charge, or with the President’s definition of “The University: Its Purpose and Fulfillment” then it must be said that the President’s thoughtful and by no means unimportant suggestions and recommendations did not receive the serious examination and criticism which it is an academic community’s obligation to provide and which it is uniquely qualified to provide. An academic community can best serve its president by engaging with him in a prolonged dialectic about their mutual concerns. However irritating such a dialectic may occasionally be, if it is properly conducted it will reveal to its participants the options available to them, and the situation they are in. It will enable them to understand and support each other even as they disagree, and even disagreement can create trust. The dialectic can force its examine the participants to assumptions they do not know they are making and those they do know they are making. We strongly believe that the planning process must reveal and examine the assumptions we hold and have held about ourselves. Further, since many of the statements in The University: Its Purpose and Fulfillment represent decisions about the University made by the President, it was obligatory or should have been, for the Planning Committee to have addressed and examined them. Not because they are wrong, but because the process of examination of assumptions is total, essential to planning, rational, or other, and because the publication of that process can help to gain support for the plan which will be one of its products. We regret further that the Committee failed to relate their evaluation criteria of quality, need and promise, to the President’s definition of the values underlying the University, freedom, equality and the humanistic values. — - evaluation process ran the risk of telling departments that they were not needed because they were weak at the same time that it told them they were weak because they were not needed. As we have already pointed out, some of the weaknesses and strengths defined by the data used are the results of previous decisions which the data may reflect but do not always reveal. Some departments, once strong, are now weak because they have not been able to fill vacancies created by their own efforts to improve the quality of their faculty by the denial of tenure. In some departments the apparently low (“inefficient” is one word used by the Committee to describe this state) student-faculty ratio at graduate levels is the result of a history of reduction in the numbers of supported graduate students, a decrease which can then be used to justify, with data, requests for additional resources. Where present weakness is the result of past deliberate action, it is hard to believe that there is not an implicit plan or an implicit evaluation; to the extent that we believe and many of us do this to be true, we tend further to believe that what was desired was a plan and an evaluation which would conform to preconceptions. administrative Given the enormous number of evaluations which have > been conducted in this University in the past ten years, one is led to wonder why IR was needed at all. The request feu: it can be interpreted as an indication of a general nervousness and insecurity about the University and an — . In the Interim Report, the Committee tells us that it began by defining its goals (which it then published as appendix 111 to its Report), and then proceeded, as the President had asked it to, to design a process of evaluation which would reveal to it the strengths and/or weaknesses of the University; out of that would discovery come, presumably did come, in fact the planning goals of the final and Report. planning But — evaluation are — different and distinguishable activities. Certainly, purpose one of evaluation (particularly if the evaluations are finally expressed in quantitative terms) is to show the distance between what is and what is not desirable and yet to be achieved, and how diminish that distance. It is not clear, by any means, that this is what the did, Committee since its perh4ps arithmetic does not could not lead to a total, and since the meaning of its terms is not entirely clear. And when the Committee began by looking at the departments as they now exist without a set of models of what departments ought to exist or what kinds of departments those we now have ought to become, that is, without a careful needs assessment, it could not avoid looking at what the administrative decisions of the past five or ten or fifteen years have created. To the extent that the condition of the departments and as in programs it examined was part it certainly was the result of administrative decision, then the Committee’s evaluations were of not evaluations only departments and programs but evaluations of the degree to which the administration had achieved its goals. Either that, or there were measures of the degree of success or failure of individual departments in manipulating their programs in order to produce data influence which would administrative decisions. At its elementary level, most the — — — — unwillingness to accept previous judgements of merit as valid. Since the Committee’s criteria were not planning criteria, 1R reflects the selective allocation of resources to academic units of the university over a period of time. A planning document should of course concern itself with evaluations, but ideally it should define an evaluation phase to follow its definition of goals, should define the criteria to be used in an evaluation', and should ask that the evaluation itself be done by a separate and different group. This is especially important to us for several reasons; the first use of historical is that description as the basis for planning necessarily inhibits the ability of any planner to look at what should be created which does not exist and, in a plus and minus context, inhibits the ability of the planner to see how to change recommend and improvement. As a tactical matter, the use of the Planning Committee as an or committee, evaluation Doomsday Group, meant that the publication of its report would put the faculty of the University on the the entire faculty defensive and create feelings of hostility which could only result in a general unwillingness to accept either the evaluations or the goal-statements of the final Report. In the retrenchment context of last spring, this could and in great measure did lead to a disaffection from the planning process and the Committee which will have to be repaired if the University is either to accept or to continue to participate in the planning process, and in the implementation of the goals — — understand where the buck stops; The President’s charge did not we believe the door to that office define a time period over which should be open. The goals of the Plan were to be achieved; anyone who has read Departmental structure the final Report and its summary The Planning Committee’s of recommendations will see at reliance upon the data sheets once that they mix the long-term 'which they developed to and the immediate. We regret that implement their charge, had some the Committee did not establish serious consequences. Since the its owp time-table, differentiate Committee wanted its data to be ’ clearly between long and comparable, and wanted to judge short-term goals and problems, or comparable activities against each arrange its objectives either in other, at least in part,, they used order of their priority or their the same kind of information for priority in time. The urgency of all programs and departments, and the situation in which they ignored the administrative operated suggests that in many structures within which cases it was defining things to do departments now exist. This right away, but since it did not prevented them from looking at say how soon its goals should or the organization of departments could be reached, it left the actual into Faculties and from seeing the decisions about time to the relationship of a department to President, where it is not the units it was administratively inconceivable that they belong. tied to, or to the entire program, However, we must point out that say, of the Faculty of Educational one advantage of a time-table is Studies. that it makes it easier to tell when The Committee’s definition of or whether we have arrived at a departments as the basic budget goal, and how late or how early 'unit of the University, and their we are. realignment of programs into the Committee had comparable groups, also prevented If a attempted to establish it from seeing across Faculty units order the to time-priority university programs for the by achievement of goals it probably administered the would have had tq look at the University-wide deans.

The use of departmentally relationship betwen those resources and the academic structured data sheets made it inevitable if not desirable as programs which depend on them. they say in the interim report, Although it might be said that the charge, together with the that the Committee’s evaluations constraints of time which kept the would grow out of the sheets, that — Committee from concerning itself with such problems, was fortunate in that it freed the imagination of the Committee, we believe that their Reports would have been substantially improved by their consideration, even in a very general way. Furthermore, the separation of — as they filled in their (unreliable?) the evaluation and data, , budgetary recommendation emerged, almost of itself. Since they had only three grades and since their evaluations were expressed finally in budgetary terms, it was nearly inevitable that they would reward the strong or deserving and punish or eliminate the Committee’s concerns from University’s supporting the weak, whatever the future the and without require services may have the effect that might looking at the necessarily the and only President his staff will finally have the ability to see interdependency of programs the University as a whole or how within and between Faculties or deficiencies in one area affect the the needs of University-wide degree to which and the time at programs.

Turning to socialism The biggest factor in my turn to socialism was when 1 faced the possibility of being drafted and sent to Vietnam. As I studied the history of Vietnam, I came to realize that our government was supporting the wrong side, for the benefit of a virulent economic system. I had worked in a glass factory, a sheet metal plant and on loading docks, and knew something of the condition of industrial workers. I began to understand these things, along with my observations of racial discrimination and the abuse of women, as something more than cruelties perpetrated by bad individuals. Rather, these injustices appeared more and more as a result of an economic system that puts private profit before people. The FBI’s job is to protect that system. I studied capitalist society,: read socialist literature, and became convinced that socialism held the future for the vast majority of the world’s people, including Americans.

In an interview with CBS correspondent Mike Wallace, the Shah himself acknowledged that SAVAK personnel are presently hunting down enemies of his regime in the U.S. Students in danger And more SAVAK squadrons are arriving in the U.S. all the time. Last August, Professor Richard Coltam, of the University of Pittsburgh, was told by a State Department official that SAVAK agents were planning to exploit the cooperation of Mafia elements to snuff out Iranians disloyal to the Shah. “These men,” the professor said, “will appear as ordinary muggers and kill the Iranians one by one.” Cottam warned Baraheni that he may be at the top of the SAVAK hit list. Columnist Jack Anderson recently reported that most ot SAVAK’s dirty tricks are aimed towards the growing number of Iranian students in the U.S. who oppse the Shah’s imperial regime. One secret SAVAK document that Anderson uncovered states, “all branches should send information regarding demonstrations of dissident Iranians, strikes, suspicious traffic, holdings of meetings, publishing Q of publications and conventions and seminars.” The- Iranian government is spending millions of dollars on universities, says American Baraheni, with one aim in mind; to keep Iranian dissidents out of these universities. In the past year, SAVAK agents have repeatedly cropped up on college campuses. At Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore earlier this year, members of the Iranian Students Association (ISA) who were protesting Hopkins’ conferral of an honorary degree upon the Shah’s sister, were quickly whisked away and brutalized by SAVAK agents* posing as news reporters. While Baltimore City Police carried out the actual arrests, SAVAK was given free reign by the University to patrol the proceedings. The ISA believes the United States’ key involvement in the internal affairs of Iran will trigger the next Vietnam. The suddenly oil-rich nation, which Amnesty International says has ‘,the worst record of human rights in the world,” currently hosts 25,000 U.S. military advisors, a number which is expected to climb past 80,000 in the next few years. The U.S. has also sold billions of dollars of arms to the Shah’s tyrannical government, making Iran “unable to wage war without the assistance of the U.S.,-” according to a Senate finding. “If Iran becomes another Vietnam, we can be sure that it was the inhumane and irresponsible policies of the U.S. government, and the excessive greed of American arms corporations that led to the crisis,” asserted Baraheni. The ISA reports that the murder of three Americans in Teheran last August was no freak slaying. The men were„ working for Rockwell International on a multi-million dollar surveilance unit designed to facilitate U.S. espionage in the Persian Gulf, as well as detect dissidents in Iran. “The revolutionary execution of these U.S. agents , is a clear example of the growing intensity of the Iranian peoples’ stuggle interference,” foreign against exhorted a national ISA release. U.S. officials are keeping mum about the infilatration of foreign police agencies in this country and are discouraging inquiries into alleged illegal activities. Atherton claims that sensitive diplomatic relations could be harmed by too much probing. But as was shown by the recent death of Orlando Letelier, the former Chilean ambassador who was knocked off by DINA, Chile’s secret police, these iron hand agencies aren’t just watching their country’s self-exiles. So pay heed to that sunglassed man in the dark, ill-fitting business suit standing for hours by the campus pub. He may be some rattling eccentric, but remember, the evil eye of SAVAK knows no limits. ; blister DOnUt* 832-6666 - Come & watch the games 10c off orders 50c or over between 6-12 pm No known cure New strain of YD isfound by Steve Lemken Special to The Spectrum (CPS) Worried about contracting one of the lesser joys of sex? Are you secure in feeling that a shot of the old cure-all, penicillin, will eradicate any of those nasty, painful symptoms that come packaged with venereal diseases? Did it ever cross your mind that one of the little buggers may be immune to all known cures? The National Center for Disease Control reports there is a new strain pf VO catching both the public and the medical community with their pants down. It’s called Herpes Simplex Virus and there is no known cure. The more common version, HS 2, is generally Called Genital Herpes and its increase as a communicable disease is causing public health officials to have more than an occasional headache. Herpes is not your everyday infectious disease. Unlike gonorrhea or syphillis, which are bacterial infections, herpes is a virus. But unlike other known curable virus infections (i.e., Hong Kong flu), herpes will lodge in the nerve cells. Permanently antibodies already present, or injected, have little or no effect. Normally the human body can produce its own defenses, antibodies, which will attack and kill foreign substances. Even after a case of measles, mumps or the flu, the body will build up resistance to ward the disease off the next time around. One health oifficial in Denver, Colorado said that 90 percent of the adult population over twenty have — - y- DOZEN DONUTS of your choice with I.D. Card herpes antibodies already built into their circulatory system. These will gobble up some of the herpes virus entering the body but the disease can still be caught and the symptoms are quite painful. Number two slot Recent studies confirm that women who have herpes have eight times greater chance of getting cervical cancer. One medical test estimates that six percent of the women who have herpes will get cervical cancer within five years. One of every four infants of infected mothers die at birth. Children that do survive may have serious complications, including brain damage. Although gonorrhea is still first on the list of venereal diseases, herpes is bucking for the number two slot with an estimated 300,000 persons infected annually. Symptoms include either cold sores around the mouth or blisters and open sores around the genitals, thighs or buttocks. The symptoms may disappear within a month but may recur periodically up to two years after the initial contact. While the virus itself cannot be killed, local treatments may be applied to reduce pain and prevent infection. Several other treatments are now being studies in Seattle, Washington. Doctors recommend no sexual contact if a person has lesions, or open sores. Any sign of the above symptoms warrants an immediate visit to a doctor or local health clinic-.

The Spectrum . Page seven �EditPrial Manipulated academic plan The release of the Interim Report of the President's Committee on the Future of the University created a small uproar here last year. At that time, the findings in the Interim Report appeared suspiciously similar to the educational philosophies outlined by President Robert Ketter in his charge to the Committee. Although last year detractors from the Interim Report were cautioned that its response from the findings would be modified University, actual revisions made in the final draft, released this summer, were negligable. The preliminary draft report of the Faculty Senate Select Committee to Respond to the Academic Plan now confirms those suspicions. It shows that the similarities in the Academic Plan to Ketter's vision of the University are more than intellectual coincidence: the similarities are a direct result of Ketter's apparently calculated influence and the Committee's sheepish inability to question that influence. Ketter's desire that this University have an academic plan, something most institutions of higher learning do not, is commendable. His zeal in "preparing" the committee that would issue that plan, however, evidences nothing less than manipulation. Can the academic plan be taken seriously when the President had already circumscribed the data it used, how it should proceed, the steps it took in reaching a conclusions, and the scope of its findings. The response to the academic plan also reports that Ketter "went to the immense trouble to provide his own statement of the goals and aspirations of the University as 'the first point of reference.' That the Academic Planning Committee never dealt critically with the stage Ketter set is perhaps its most surprising failure. It shatters any pretense the Committee might make to objectivity. We will not now discuss the substance of the Committee's recommendations, its ramifications, or of education we implies. Instead, it wish only thephilosophy to raise the question of Ketter's ability to impanel a What is teaching worth? To the Editor: First, I would like to define what is teaching by comparing it to independent study. The process of teaching requires the professor to expand on and consequently, facilitate the understanding of specific material contained in the course book. Independent study entails the dual role of professor and student. Material covered perfunctorily in the course book has to be understood by the student as well as material covered sufficiently without the aid of a professor! Even with independent study, there is still the necessity to get help from the professor on difficult problems or concepts. General Physics is a course designed for independent study. A paradox arises because what then is the professor’s role in the learning process. He just reiterates the material covered in the course book and aids those students with specific problems from the text. Isn’t this just independent study? One finds a totally different picture when with General contrasting General Physics professors Chemistry The Chemistry. understand that the course book is lax in certain areas and they teach accordingly. The above two examples are just simplistic pictures comparing the two introductory science courses I enrolled in. I will not go into which course, Physics or Chemistry, is the more difficult. All 1 am trying to emphasize is that the General Physics course should be engineered more to the needs of the student by having the professor assume a more active role in the learning process. Finally, who is teaching General Chemistry next semester, since the professor is such an intrinsic part of the learning process? A Chem Student " committee whose report is molded by his design as much as theirs, operating on a pretense of academic freedom. Unfortunately, Ketter and the Academic Planning Committee's performance demonstrate that, as the Response Committee says, participitory planning may be only a management device to get us accustomed to the tumbrills and the guillotine. This then is the level at which Ketter's academic plan 'and it it truly his) was achieved. Course description delayed To the Editor. The Student Association would like to apologize to the student population and the academic departments for the tardiness of the University Wide Course Description Handbook.

Andy Lalonde, Director A cademic A jfairs Student Association the Dec. The Spectrum publishing regulations, we had to shift to a new publisher, and in the transition we missed a revised pre-registration schedule. Such mishaps shall not happen in the future. Forseeing for the “crime” of sexual ingenuous cries from the perpetrators of these arrests that they were “only enforcing the law,” it becomes essential to fathom that the antiscientific and repressive Judeo-Christian Moralism, which underlies these typocritical attacks on personal rights, is part and parcel of bourgeois class dominated society, and that their vindictive hired guns are in fact “only doing their jobs.” Therefore, to pose Utopian liberal parlimentary reforms, by any but the most cretinoid, is to criminally ignore the fact that the steel grip on the state apparatus by the bourgeoisie and its cynical supporters is, in part, fundamentally dependent upon the maintenance of the inefficient and unhealthy nuclear family; furthermore, that the laws in society are merely reflecting the interests of the ruling class. Obviously, under sufficient public pressure, legal reforms would be implemented to ease the persecution of gays (or any other specially oppressed group). However, these reforms will be reversed in the reactionary backlashes which are inevitable when class rule is threatened. Contemporary history shows that these threats are in themselves unavoidable in this period of putrifying capitalism, as irrational modes of production and distribution guarantee scarcity for the vast masses of people, despite material and technological resources capable ot providing undreamed of abundance for all. In the final analysis, Gays are antagonistic to the capitalist modus operandi. True liberation for homosexuals, and ultimately for mankind as a whole, can only be possible when the material basis for the oppression is lifted. To this end, the resolute smashing of the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie and the implementation of rule by a Leninist Vanguard Party, which objectively serves the International Proletarian Class against reaction in the transitional epoch, is the sole solution (to make a long story short). Philistine psychophants (supposedly revolutionaries) of the Stalinist bureaucracies in the deformed/degenerated workers’ states ot Cuba, China, and the U.S.S.R. which sit parasitically atop the defensible gains of their respective revolutions, support repression of Gays, despite a tradition of defense of homosexuals by the early second International and the Third International under Lenin. The inheritor of these traditions in today’s world lies with revolutionary Trotskyism, which alone provides a cogent path forward. Spartacus Youth League Club �TRB. Hamilton Jordan, Jimmy Carter’s young campaign manager, has been falling all over himself apologizing for telling Playboy that the Carter Administration would have failed and he would quit if Cyrus Vance became Secretary of State and Zbigniew Brzezinksi became head of the National Security Council staff. He says he chose poor examples in making the point that Carter would bring fresh faces into the government, since both men are under serious consideration for high level jobs. The time for guessing what Carter is going to do will, soon be past. In another two or three weeks we should begin finding out whether Carter’s outsider stance and anti-Washington line during the campaign were no more than a gimmick to appeal to a public fed up with the old crowd or whether he actually will bring a lot of outsiders into his administration. Jordan said he expected the new Secretary of the Treasury would come from inside the financial community and would serve as a bridge to the business world. This sounded like another hint .that Carter was backing away from the anti-establishment approach of his campaign. A sign that pointed in the opposite direction was Carter’s list of eleven persons described as representative of those who would be advising him on appointments. First on the list was the Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh, president of Notre Dame University and former chairman of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights. Father Hesburgh is no stranger to Washington, but he brings with him 4 gale of fresh air, whether the issue is chronic discrimination against American citizens or chronic disregard for the interests of the peoples of underdeveloped nations. Another in the group was a Jacksonville, Mississippi manufacturer who is a former moderator of the Southern Baptist Convention. The list included, not the usual one black, but three blacks. Four were women. And there wasn’t a single big-name Washington WASP lawyer, Ivy League professor or pillar of the Council on Foreign Relations. For the record, here are the others: Lucy W. Benson, Former president of the League of Lane Voters; Kirkland, Women secretary-treasurer of the AFL-CIO; Vernon Jordan, executive director of the Urban League; Carol Foreman, executive director of the Urban League; Carol Foreman, executive director of the Consumer Federation of America; Marion Wright Edelman, executive director of the Children’s Defense Fund; Robert Strauss, Democratic National chairman of the Committee; Hank L. Coya, chairman of the division of the Carter-Mondale Hispanic Mississippi Cooper, the campaign; Owen businessman and lay religious leader; Irving Shapiro, chairman of the board of E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Co. and chairman of the Business Roundtable, and Patricia Roberts Harris, a Washington attorney who was chairman of the 1972 Democratic National Convention and is a former Ambassador to Luxembourg and dean of the Howard University Law School. If Carter worries about his narrow margin of Victory and develops an early pre-occupation with how to win reeiection in 1980, he won’t Bor pay much attention to the advice he gets from people like that. If this happens, he will more likely look to the American establishment for advice in making appointments and planning policies. That was part of John F. Kennedy’s trouble. Although he had written “Profiles in Courage,” he took the path of caution after being elected by a similarly close vote. The day after the election, he announced that he would keep J. Edgar Hoover as head of the FBI and Allen W. Dulles as head of the CIA. Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr. suggested afterward that Kennedy knew better but considered the two men unassailable. But it was only eight days later that Dulles broke the news to Kennedy that plans for the Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba were already well underway. The trouble that Hoover and Dulles later made for Kennedy outweighed any political advantage he obtained by reassuring their admirers and taking them into his administration. When Kennedy looked for suggestions for the top jobs in his administration, he went to the safety of the American Establishment and offered one of its leaders, Robert A. Lovett, his State, choice of the three top cabinet jobs Defense or the Treasury. When Lovett turned him down, Kennedy took his advice in naming Dean Rusk as Secretary of State and Robert S. McNamara as Secretary of Defense. Their most lasting contributions were to lead first Kennedy and then Lyndon Johnson info the Vietnam War. What is more, Kennedy was so trusting that he decided on Rusk without checking sufficiently to find out about a long and close relationship between Rusk and John Foster Dulles, the of State in the Eisenhower Secretary Administration. Instead of innovation, Kennedy was endorsing continuation. Choosing outsiders and fresh faces doesn’t necessarily mean avoiding anyone over 50 and anyone who has been working in Washington. There are Some old Washington hands who have always been outsiders. Not that Mike Mansfield is looking for work, but he displayed his independence and youthfulness of spirit when he returned from China and urged bluntly that the United States break relations with Taiwan, abrogate the American defense commitments and get on with establishing full diplomatic relations with Peking. However Carter proceeds, the old order already has changed profoundly and will go on changing. The Council on Foreign Relations has some influential rivals, notably Thomas R. Hughes’ complex of foreign policy operations at the Carnegie Endowment for International HOT (£R ifieo uw I ww ee (Sa cwr. — (i-'i Peace. A membership movement called New Directions, modeled after Common Cause and headed by former Gov. Russell W. Peterson of Delaware, will be lobbying on foreign affairs issues. Farther out, Sanford Gottlieb at SANE has been pressing for effective arms control and disarmament, and Morton Halperin at the Project on National Security and Civil Liberties has been documenting what he accurately calls “the crimes of the U.S. intelligence agencies.” These outsiders have a powerful new weapon in the amended Freedom of Information Act. And younger staffers in the State Department and sometimes even in the Defense Department are increasingly receptive to what the outsiders,have to say. Jimmy Carter campaigned as a spokesman for the outsiders. He can be their leader if he chooses. More to life To the Editor. In response to the rash of letters in regard to the our pre-med chemistry department, perhaps colleagues should re-examine their attitudes. The goal of a college education is not to prove one can take organic chemistry with two other courses and get an A the fourth time around. Perhaps if our had a little backbone and “forced” themselves to take four technical courses in a semester, they will realize a little insight into the subject matter is required. Our pre-med colleagues have quite clearly lost their prespective on education, perhaps if they were expected to take four technical courses a semester, as the engineers are required to do, they will find the work quite exhilarating. After all, if you don’t find the work rewarding, you’re in the wrong mqjor. Hopefully this attitude is not demonstrative of the majority of pre-meds for it shows a definite lack of dedication. Grades, like anything else measured by a number, cannot be taken as an absolute quantity, in the case of our pre-med friends who can’t even hack three courses a semester, grades are a fair measure of friends Lost time in Physics 101 To the Editor. I am writing this to make the right people aware of what is happening in Physics 101. We have now missed 12 out of 26 scheduled classes this semester. These 12 missed classes were days that the professor did not teach. He canceled two classes in the beginning of the semester due to his lack of organization. Then he was holding classes 50 minutes instead of 1 hr. 20 min. resulting in time lost equalling another two classes. He was sick twice and did not get a replacement. We spent, another two classes talking about why all this is happening. Two more were lost due to tests and finally, two more were lost during the snow storm. I don’t know what should be done about this, but loosing 46% of class time in a course like Physics surely must have grave consequences. As I said I am writing this to make the right people aware of what is happening here. I have never heard of this happening in any other course, therefore I have no suggestions as to what would remedy this serious situation. I hope the proper people see this and can figure out a solution to this. incompetence. There is more to life than being a doctor and certainly there is more to college than heating the bottom line for your A. So to our pre-med friends the only advice we can give is, “The only successful substitute for brains is silence.” Rcdlich Student of Physics 101 Wednesday, 8 December 1976 . Kwong The Spectrum . Page nine �NACC Addicts receive treatment; alternative to prison by Philip Mitchell Special to The Spectrum addiction. At the same time, a probation report is compiled. The three reports are then forwarded to the courts, the outcome to be at the judge’s discretion. There are two types of certification civil and criminal. A civil commitment can be initiated by anyone who knows the addict. A petition is filed in court stating that the individual is addicted to drugs. The judge issues a court order that he process. certification the undergo Unfortunately, it is not uncommon that non-addicts are both certified and committed. A civil commitment lasts three years, with at least six months spent on in-patient status. The facility, however, has the option to delay release through the end of an addict’s certification. For years heroin addicts had been treated in psychiatric centers that were little different from jails; more and more people realized that drug usage was spreading despite incarceration. As mental hospitals were becoming overcrowded with addicts that had no psychiatric problems to begin with, it was obvious that a more specific treatment program was needed. In April of 1967 a statewide addiction treatment program was instituted by Known as ex-Governor Rockefeller. Narcotic Addiction Control Commission (NACC), the program’s purpose was to treat addicts facing jail terms, therefore cutting down on prisftn population and creating alternatives to*the recitivistic cycle Desirable alternative and release, prison, of addiction, There are several reasons why an addict re-addiction. would certify himself.

In desirable alternative to prison. ‘the Rockefeller Commlsion,’ mainly because a criminal facing a lengthy sentence could get off with five years in Criminal certification A criminal certification is imposed by NA'CG. Since the Commission was set up running many courts, times the only as a treatment center for addicts, a concurrently with probation Or parole. A way to determine addiction had to be instituted. criminal certification lasts five years instead of three and the court may attach A certification process was set up wherein a person claiming addiction is first conditions to it. The judge can place an seen by a psychiatrist to determine the offender on probation (an avoided jail degree psychological term; though the individual is supervised) addict’s of dependency. Based on that report, a and simultaneously sentence him into physician examines the' individual to NACC. This stipulation is called the Pilot determine the existence of actual physical Project Three (PP3), and makes the addict - v responsible to both an after care officer (from the Narcotic Addiction. Control Commission), and a county probation officer. This is done if the court feels stricter supervision's required. Parole is the conditional release of an the sentence is not inmate, though suspended. The Pilot Project Four is a program combining the efforts of the parole board and NACC. If arrested, the parolee is in violation of parole and can be returned to prison, possibly for the remainder of his sentence. PP4 is geared to treat a parolee with a drug problem instead of returning him to prison. Non-addicts committed Unfortunately, many lawyers have been known to make deals with the District Attorney’s office to insure a certification for their defendant, regardless of whether actual addiction is present. Deals between DA’s and the defense attorney though illegal, are widespread and done for several It cuts down on court reasons. expenditures, providing more room in court for other cases. As a result, criminals with no drug history flood rehabilitation centers, forcing tighter security. This, in turn, produces higher anxiety and tension levels among inmates and officers. Furthermore, these certified non-addicts displace those who need and are entitled to the space, forcing them to be removed to prisons. Changes in NACC Until 1972. NACC would only accept narcotic addicts. There was, however, a growing need to treat other types of drug problems. Spurring this on was the fact that drugs had become a problem in suburbia as well as the ghetto. Since suburban teenagers were not as exposed to heroin, they started using speed, downs and LSD. NACC was expanded to become the Drug Abuse Control Commission (DACC) tQ treat poly-drug abusers, as well as heroin addicts. At the same time, stricture controls were placed on diet and sleeping pills, along with cough syrups containing narcotics. It became necessary to create several more facilities to treat the growing number of abusers. One facility opened September 1. 1973 in Otisville, New York, close to Middleton in Orange County. Once a reformatory used by the Department for Youth, it was a minimum security institution that could hold three hundred and fifty people. Rehabilitation Otisville Originally, Center (ORC) was accepting non-narcotic drug abusers only, arguing that narcotic addicts were security risks and required closer supervision. However, their eighth admittance was an addict, and from that point on, addicts were sent to Otisville Rehabilitation Center as well as the higher security facilities. Facilities close, women lose became , Vice Rockefeller massive budget cuts started throughout New York State. Governor Carey, during his campaign and first months in office, stated that large institutions caused recitivism and made readjustment to the community more difficult because bf the regimented lifestyle on inmates. He cited the imposed Department of Mental Hygiene, • and specifically DACC, as one program responsible for such institutionalization. ■ The budget cuts were first felt in the spring of 1975. Nine of the existing twelve DACC facilities have been closed in the last eighteen months. This left three of the larger institutions open: Masten Park, in Buffalo; Manhattan Rehabilitation Center and Melrose Rehab in the Bronx. Manhattan R.C. is now' the only facility remaining that treats women. Therefore, a certified to the Buffalo woman Commission must be transferred to Manhattan for treatment. Although visits from friends and family are perhaps the best therapy available, the current situation makes that practically impossible. One can imagine how frustrating this can become, especially while women from New York City have visitors frequently. To further complicate the matter, overcrowding and rape produce great tensidft and are Once President, widespread. It would seem that DACC has become a token Commission, with many officers never learning one’s name while demanding pistols to protect themselves from inmates. With this type of situation prevailing, one wonders what kind of therapy is possible. The next article will deal with Masten Park specifically and what it is actually like to be confined in a DACC institution. �■vwwwvv FIND IT COMMUTER BREAKFAST - Wednesday, Dec. 8th in The Student 8 am 12 Noon Fillmore Room Norton - Directory - £veiyo ne Tree Bewrafe®' INTERSEMESTER COURSES at Daemen College December 28 January 14 - UL.

It seems that one day they play championship hockey, and the next day they revert to schoolyard shinny. Things were no different this past weekend at the Elmira Invitational Tournament, where the Bulls finished second to the host Elmira College Soaring Eagles. On Saturday, the Bulls played their Tiniest hockey of the year, dumping arch-rival Oswego 6—4, in the tournament’s opening round. But the following day they were “surprised” by Elmira, 5—1, and had to settle for the runners-up position. Against Oswego, the Bulls could do no wrong, and they avenged their 4—3 overtime loss to the Great Lakers earlier in the year. John Moore provided by Robert Bodziner Buffalo coach Ed Wright could offer little in the way of a reason. “We had an excellent effort against Oswego on Saturday, but yesterday was a different story; we just couldn’t get started,” said Wright, “I’d hate to think that they [Elmira] wanted the game more. They’re for real, but I find it hard to believe that they have better personnel then we do. “I do think that the officials had a lot to do with the momentum of the game. I feel that we got the short end of the stick,” continued Wright. “I think that they were a contributing factor in our inability to get on track.” Bagocus not at fault Whatever the reasons were, though, rookie Mike Bagocus consequences. the payed Although Bagocus was the losing netminder in the earlier loss to Elmira, this time the defeat was not his fault. In fact, he made 44 stops in the contest, as the Bulls Buffalo with another solid game were badly outshot, 49—23. in the nets, registering 40 saves, “Mike played a good garhe,” said and Tony Scaringi returned to the Wright of his goalie. “Our lack of lineup to add leadership as well as effort is not reflected upon his defensive savvy. An unexpected efforts at all.” surprise came from the fine play This Friday night, the Bulls of the makeshift line of Tom on the Cortland State take Wilde, Gary Trumpgheller, and Dragons at the Tonawanda Sports fofechecked Stu Campbell, who Center (7;30 p.m.). The game effectively all game long. should prove to be an interesting one for the Bulls, because, while Bulls favored to win Dragons are not too highly great the a Coming off a club, the Bulls are in no rated performance against the Lakers it to take anybody for position appeared that the Bulls should granted. A Victory over Cortland have no trouble in the final game only help the Bulls get not would against Elmira, in spite of the back into the playoff picture, but Eagles upset victory in Buffalo would certainly aid what must be two weeks ago. After all, if the a somewhat confused mental Bulls could beat the favorite attitude. Oswego squad, then it stands to Wright has said that Moore will reason that they could handle the return to the goal on Friday, and Eagles as well. But something happened on if team captain Scaringi and victory defenseman Carl Koeppel play as way to the the again well as they did in the Elmira and once celebration, Elmira upset the Bulls, this time by a Rounament (both were named to 5-1 count. How the Eagles were the all-star team), then the Bulls able to dominate the Bulls so should get back on the winning easily is. hard to explain, and even track. Last Saturday afternoon at the Clark Gym pool, the men’s swimming team opened up their 1976-77 season a against St. consistently strong Bonaventure team. It was a hard fought, extremely tight meet that was decided on the final race of the contest. St. Bonaventure won that last race, along with the entire meet by a slim margin of five points, 59-54. In the next event, the 500 yard freestyle, Brenner set a new school record with an amazing time of 5:13.8. Brenner was remarkable eleven and one half seconds faster than Bonaventure’s second finisher. Paul place Glauber made a clutch third place finish for the Bulls in this event. This race put Buffalo on top again by two points. The 200 yard breast stroke was a tight race, with Cesar Lopez placing second for Buffalo. Bonaventure now had a one point lead, 49-48, and the action moved to the one meter optional diving The match began on a good for the Bulls, as then relay note Jim Harding, team of breaststroker Cesar Lopez, butterflyer George Finelli and freestyler Chuck Niles finished first in the 400 yard medley relay. This spotted the Bulls to a 7-0 lead, a cushion that they held throughout most of the contest. The second race, the 1000 yard freestyle, was won by the Bonnies, despite a strong swim by Buffalo’s Paul Glauber, who placed second. event. In this competition, both Doran and. Frasca moved up a notch in their placing from their contest, as Doran previous finished tirst and Frasca third. Doran’s point total was 222.6, while Frasca’s was 145.55. With only one event to go, the 400 yard freestyle relay, the Bulls had regained a slim two point lead, 54-52. Unfortunately, Buffalo lost that event, despite strong legs by Brenner and Jaremka. far As as Buffalo was concerned, it was a tough race to lose, and it was even harder to accept the 59-54 loss to the Bonnies. Coach Bill Sanford, although disheartened by the tight defeat, still saw many bright spots for the future. He looked forward to their next match against Geneseo State College to possibly get their first notch in the victory column. > SHARE THE RIDE WITH US THIS CHRISTMAS AND GET ON TO A GOOD THING. Bulls win three The next three events were all won by the highly inspired Bulls. The first of these competitions was the 200 yard freestyle, which Jim Brenner won easily with a time of 1:53.9, over a second faster than the second place finisher. The second event was a quick sprint, the 50 yard freestyle, and it was barely won by Buffalo’s Peter Jaremka with a time of 23.5 seconds. The Bull’s Jim Harding emerged as the victor in the 200 yard individual medley to give Buffalo a 25-18 lead. • ' Us means Greyhound, and a lot of your fellow students who are already on to a good thing Travel comfortably.

Tony Frasca, the other Buffalo diver, was nosed out of third by a close margin. With Buffalo’s lead decreased to only four points the action turned back to swimming. The 200 yard butterfly was taken by co-captain Finelli, who posted an excellent time of 2:08.2. The Bonnies' placed second and third in that race. The 100 yard freestyle and the 200 yard backstroke were won by St. Bonaventure, with Niles placing second in the freestyle and Harding finishing second in the backstroke.

Game time is 8:15 p.m., and any student with an I.D. card will be admitted free. At first glance, the two teams seen] rather similar. The Bisons,won only nine games last year, while the Bulls won ten. Both teams have three starters returning from last year’s squad, and both Bison coach A.B. Williamson and Buffalo coach Leo Richardson like to run the fast break, which usually creates an exciting, high-scoring game. Howard comes to Buffalo with a 2-0 record, as a result of wins over Catholic University and Hampden Institute. Buffalo, 1-2 on the year, beat Long Island last Tuesday night, but lost to Niagara (in double overtime) and Fairleigh Dickinson. Howard is led by 6-7 forward Jerald Glover, who averaged fourteen points per game last year. He works well inside, has a good jump shot, and is a strong re bounder. At the other forward spot is a 6-9 sophomore from Akron, John Mullin. Six-eight Mike Nettle is the pivotman. This week's co &thletes of the week, Kirk Anderson and Ray Pfieffer, have a lot in common. Both are juniors, both are on the wrestling team, and both captured a first place trophy at the Bucknell Invitational over the weekend. Co-captain Anderson wrestles at 158, while Pfieffer weighs in at 126. Their two first place finishes helped the Bulls capture fourth place out of ten schools in the teams standings. m ma m am m NEED MONEY? WANT A JOB WITH FLEXIBLE HOURS?

The point guard is Senior Angelo Council, who made All-Conference two years ago, but had an off year last year. He has shown signs of returning to form, as he le<J the Bisons with seven assists against Hampden. Their other guard is sophomore David Whitehead, who has an excellent outside shot. The Bulls have been sparked by senior guard George Cooper this year. Cooper has been averaging over 19 points per game and is also leading the team in assists. Cooper drives very well, and can shoot from twenty feet to keep the defense honest. Buffalo’s other starting guard has been Ed Johnson, a transfer from Albany. His shooting style looks a bit awkward, but his 50% shooting average is nothing to be ashamed of. Height advantage Up front, Howard will have a slight height advantage. The Bulls center, 6-8 Vi Sam Pellbm, led the nation in rebounding last year, although injuries have slowed him some this season. He is till averaging nearly eleven rebounds and over twelve points per game. Buffalo’s forwards are two 6-6 seniors, Sam Robinson and Eric Spence. Spence is at home close to the basket, and as a result, has begun the year shooting 75 percent from the floor. Robinson is more effective than Spence away from the basket, but can rebound just as well. Both have been averaging 8.7 rebounds per game thus far. The Bulls’ bench has seen quite a bit of action this season. Junior forward Larry Jones has played as many minutes as Spence, while guards Donald Scott and forward Vernell Washington also will be counted on. Williamson, like Richardson, believes in the team concept. Against Hampden (an eight point win for Howard), Williamson used eleven of his fifteen players. Richardson used ten players in Buffalo’s three point win over LIU.

Ketter repeatedly insisted, as he did last year, that he is bound by legal constraints which prohibit him from recognizing GSEU, and therefore could only discuss “the issues. Following a similar impasse last year, GSEU entered and then broke off negotiations with the Public Employees Relations Board (PERB), which Ketter has repeatedly pointed out is the only division of state government in Albany responsible for recognizing unions. The abbreviated meeting in Ketter’s office was the first in many months between GSEU representatives and the Ketter administration. Following last year’s pattern, it was held only after extended haggling over when and under what conditions it would take place. Voluntary recognition sought The deabte between Ketter and the Union has evolved into a question of how far Ketter can go in recognizing, or encouraging PERB to recognize, GSEU. Union members maintained Monday that Ketter can voluntarily recognize the Union, or bring officials from Albany to campus for that purpose. $56.6 million some in construction funds to begin the work. The money, appropriated by the State Legislature during the year two-and-a-half building freeze and recently recommended for reappropriation by Governor Carey now lies backlogged, — unused, and waiting to be spent. “DOB has just been sitting on (Jus money,” said James DeSantis, University of Director Information Services. “And they haven’t given a reason why.” Money wasted The five stalled buildings, which include two service the Biology warehouses, Laboratory Greenhouse, and two structures to house Cjvil and Mechanical Engineering, would run an estimated $13.5 million. The rest of the $56 million would go for new structure design, completion of present structures, Certification of a union by PERB depends on two main points; Are Teaching and Graduate Assistants (TAs and GAs) employees of the University, and does the Union exist as a statewide entity? “We are insisting that the mental set of recourse to administrative structure [in Albany] be changed. GSEU’s issues concern this campus specifically,” GSEU member Michael Sartisky said. Ketter answered that although he sympathized with the issues affecting TAs and GAs, he on principle did not believe they were employed by the University. Union members charged in the meeting that assistants to Ketter had argued against recognizing the Union to PERB officials in Albany. Ketter denied this, saying the only information he submitted to PERB or that his assistants testified about in Albany concerned the University’s budget and matters pertaining to the University’s operations. As demonstrators’ chanting was heard from outside the plush Hayes Hall office [see story on page 3], Ketter sparred with the delegation from GSEU over the legal semantics of Union recognition. Although they did not speak, Ketter was accompanied by his assistant, Ronald Stein, Graduate Dean McAllister Hull, Academic Affairs Vice President Robert Bunn, and Vice President for Student Affairs Richard Siggelkow. On the table Typical of the exchange was Ketter resignedly saying he “only wanted to get the issues on the table,” and GSEU, while still unconvinced of Ketter’s sincerity on the roads, utility projects, parking lots and landscaping. Sources here report that this University is far behind the other three State Universities in building development. Although Stony Brook, Albany and Binghamton are all approximately 90 percent completed, built in part with tuition monies from larger SUNY Buffalo, the Amherst Campus is now only 40 percent complete. to Originally intended accommodate 40,000 students, Amherst has been scaled down to handle 25,500 because of a decrease in projected enrollments; —continued on pgge 2— issues, demanding that Ketter work out a contract with the Union Later in the day GSEU spokespersons said the Union never wanted to strike and hoped formal negotiations leading to a contract would have made a strike unnecessary. But “as a result of Ketter’s utter instransigence,” the strike referendum, scheduled to begin next Monday, will be held as planned. “We must hold Dr. Ketter responsible for the situation that led us to this impasse,” Union members added. Immediately after the 25-minute meeting. Academic Affairs Vice President Bunn revealed that a committee would be formed to collect information on current practices and policies on GAs and TAs. Bunn envisioned the committee as one made up of deans, department heads and graduate students. Bunn said the committee was one of a number of academic committees being formed which would make recommendations to Ketter later this spring, and that the committee should not be viewed as a response to the issues raised by GSEU., GSEU’s strike referendum last year fell short by 17 votes. Union members bitterly crticized an article which appeared in The Reporter just prior to the balloting, which argued against the merits of graduate students unionizing. GSEU has supported better wages for TAs and GAs, guarantee of tuition waivers, comprehensive medical insurance and worker’s compensation, and restoration of cuU graduate and teaching assistantships. GSEU, has also supported fulfilling the goals of affirmative action, smaller class size and retention of the four-course load. �Academic planning seminar The Faculty of Engineering and Applied Sciences will present Thomas Martin, President of the Illinois institute of Technology, in a lecture entitled “Objectives, Strategies and Tactics in Academic Planning,” at 2 p.m. today in 239 Hayes Hall. Construction being at present 40 percent of the scaled down plan, Amherst is now large enough for a student body of about 10,000. Current total enrollment is 23,000. While DOB refuses to spend the funds apportioned by the Legislature, $2.5 million is spent every year to rent 12 outside areas for operating space, including Bell Hall and the Ridge Lea Campus facilities; an annual inter-campus busing bill of $437,000 must be paid; a seven or eight percent inflation rate eats away at the buying power of the unused construction funds. All three expenses erode the State’s ability to complete the new campus. (At an average inflation rate of seven percent over the past two years, dollars that could have paid for $50 million worth of construction in 1975 can now pay for about $43 million worth.) —continued from page 1— . . .

A Massachusetts Representative asked at a hearing this week what fishermen do with the porposes that are caught along with tuna and die when the nets are raised aboard the boats. “They are returned to the ecosystem,” replied Dr. Robert Schoning, director of the National Marine Fisheries Service, - a Governor Hugh Carey’s latest budget request.

FIESTA 77 �Wallowing in Watergate Dirty tricks highlight student elections at Colorado campus between the candidates in which police were called to settle the dispute arose from a cartoon that CRAP by Carol O’Connor Special to The Spectrum Despite a campaign filled with dirty phonejamming, distributing derogatory tricks leaflets and even a physical confrontation between only 1,266 students of an estimated candidates 19,000 at the University of Colorado at Boulder turned out to elect their student government (CPS) — — — executives. In an exercise that clearly demonstrated that the students had been observing recent politics, the dirty trick for various candidat j fought it out dirty trick to determine which student coalition would have indirect control over nearly $3.2 million in student fees. Things got so bad that the Colorado Daily, an independent newspaper serving the Boulder campus, refused to endorse and candidate’s coalition for the executive positions since “ethical cleanliness” was one of the qualities the Daily valued in a candidate. The candidates who finally won were the Robin Powers-Hewitt Hallock-Dan Caplis liberal slate. The Critical Rational Analysis Party (CRAP) candidates, Laura Tisoncik and Dave Kent, came in second with 879 votes, with the Minorities Coalition, Concerned Students Coalition/Liberal Students Coalition (CSC/LSC) and Susan Groth, a lone candidate after her running-mate Dave Thielen was disqualified at the last moment all trailing in. — — Phone-jamming The phone-jamming scheme came to light this election, although it happened last election. Nili Lange (as in ski boots) and her running-mate Henry Tobin of the CSC Coalition, were involved in a phone-jamming effort last election that jammed the lines to a ROTC-backed candidate’s office. Liberals traditionally clobber conservative candidates on the Boulder campus, but Lange and Tobin felt more effort was needed on their parts to defeat the ROTC candidate. There were no criminal violations for their phone-jamming ploy, sources say. Interestingly, the physical confrontation candidate Laura Tisoncik drew on a chalk board during a meeting that was derogatory to CSC candidate Lang. The cartoon, according to sources, depicted a man with a foot on a soap box derby car with the caption that the Lange family was “Big in Sports.” Lange’s uncle, Robert B. Lange, was involved in an incident in which the car he helped build for the race was found to be against racing rules.

Through ads in the Daily and literature CRAP party members claimed to be anarchists ready to slash $250,000 from the UCSU’s operating budget, and to stop political favoritism and allow optional funding for special interest groups. No one is sure who distributed leaflets calling candidates Dave Thielen a “turkey” throughout women’s toilet’s, but disqualified candidate Thielen wasn’t phased at that tactic, nor was he pleased when he was disqualified from the race at the last minute after the Student Government Court of Appeals ruled that since he is enrolled in the Division of Continuing Education and is not assessed student fees, he is therefore ineligible for office. Thielen appealed the decision to Boulder District Court where Judge Richard Dana agreed with the student government’s attorney, Patricia Madsen, who maintained “it is mandatory” for UCSU executives to pay the required student fees as they receive benefits of such assessments. Thielen’s name was removed and his running-mate forced to run alone. Thielen’s attorney pointed out that Thielen has already spent more than $900 on the race.

The crowd of undergraduates, graduates and faculty marched and stood in the moderate cold to show, according to Union member Michael Sartisky, the initial rally speaker, “that you support the Union as it goes in to negotiate, or begin the process of negotiating, a graduate employee contract. Nothing less will do.” The mass meeting, which began in Squire (Norton) and rallied later at Hayes Hall, was the scheduled meeting at 3 p.m. between University President Robert Ketter and Union representatives, the president of the Graduate Student Association and the editor of The Spectrum. The subject matter, according to an administration letter to the GSEU, would center on issues of “concern” to the University’s graduate student employees. The ralliers sang several union songs, chanted and listened to several speakers including Sartisky; Chris Lubinski, on behalf of the Union; Cindy Whiting, for the GSEU Undergraduate Support Committee; and Paul Krehbiel, on state-wide efforts to fight the decline of New York’s public higher education.

Peace Corps projects worldwide need nearly 2200 volunteers to begin work this summer. And, in an about-face from last year, VISTA has increased its recruiting efforts to fill American in projects volunteer 1977 communities. “That means a applicant will have a very good chance of being selected by the Peace Corps or VISTA,” Atkinson, Chris reports ACTION’S manager of recruitment fn upstate New York. Going into its sixteenth year Peace Corps enables Americans with specific skills or degrees to live and work for two years in a developing country. Language training and living expenses are provided in addition to travel, medical support and an extra allotment of $125 for each month of service as a volunteer. Since 1965, VISTA has provided sponsors in local communities with skilled volunteers to staff community development projects for one year. A minimal allowance is provided to cover food, rent, medical expenses and vacation. VISTA sets aside an extra $50 for each month of the volunteer’s service. College loans are defferable while a person is a volunteer in either program. , Who qualifies? A college degree is usually the minimum unless a person offers experience. working substantial Cooperating countries and domestic volunteers; request the sponsors depends on the a deal great consequently, flexibility of the volunteer. Interested people should apply as soon as possible. Completion of placement, medical exams, references, and passport applications requires two to three months. Within Peace Corps skills in great demand include: 1) science graduates (Math, Physics, Biology and Chemistry) with or without teacher training; 2) people have studied some French; 3) who engineers (road, water resource and business architects, structural), administrators and accountants; 4) health professionals such as nurses, therapists and lab technologists; 5) secondary school teachers; 6) home economists, nutritionists or social work majors with related skills; and 7) agriculture and mechanical trades specialists, many of whom qualify on experience alone. Compared to Peace Corps, VISTA is often more flexible in determining qualifications for particular positions. As a rule, openings involve working and living with low-income groups. Projects include legal associations, aid, neighborhood social work, drug-rehabilitation, special education and skilled trades training. Prior volunteer work can be an important asset to a VISTA applicant.

Stevens U.S. corporate law breaker by Jay Rosen precious little to retiring Stevens Staff Writer Spectrum Before we started wasn't much different than slavery. No lunch hour. Just • eat your sandwich while running your machines. And then they close the plant. They shut us out... that’s what they said they’d do and that’s what they did. Teach us a lesson. England in the 1890’s? America in the 1920’s? Or Georgia in the 1970’s? These words were spoken by Addie Jackson of Statesboro, Georgia in 1973 after the J.P. Stevens Co., the world’s second largest textile company, closed the plant in which she worked rather than deal with the textile workers’ union. "... organizing it ” During the long struggle between union forces and the J.P. Stevens Co., the company has earned the dubious distinction of being “America’s Number One Corporate Law Breaker.” This is no idle claim. Since 1963, Stevens has been pronounced guilty of law violations 15 times by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), a record no American corporation can match. The company appealed every decision and lost 11, three times being denied review by the United States Supreme Court. No break The violations included a host of anti-union tactics including threatened plant closings, outright firing of union sympathizers, denying overtime to union supporters, and closing of a “break room” to prevent workers from “talking union.” Two company officials were convicted of wire-tapping a union officer’s motel room. In a resultant civil suit, Stevens settled out of court and paid $50,000 in damages. operations Stevens are concentrated in the South, and specifically in North and South Carolina, where 63 of its 85 plants are located. None of the company’s 44,000 workers are covered by a union contract, and wages average 31 percent lower than the national average for factory labor. The company has driven the Clothing and Textile Workers Union into mounting a national consumer boycott of Stevens products which range from panty hose to table linen. Amalgamated "After 37 years of loyal and faithful service, I have a plaque, $1,360 and brown lung.” Lack of a union contract leaves m 1 i workers. After 35 years, a retiree can look forward to a pension of about $20 a month. In contrast, the Chairman of the Board receives over $91,000 per year. To make matters many worse, workers become inflicted with “brown lung” disease, technically referred to as byssinosis. The respiratory ailment develops from breathing cotton dust, which is found in some Stevens plants at levels two to three times higher than maximum safety standards 1 oermit. The textile industry is one of the South’s largest employers, yet only 10 percent of its 700,000 workers are unionized. The lack of worker organization is fostered by state laws which prohibit the “closed shop,” and by the Southern culture which distrusts union men. Bankers, local officials and church groups in the numerous mill towns of the South openly discourage organization and support. The industry is a graveyard of earlier attempts to unionize. In the 1930’s and ’40’s the Congress of Industrial Organization (CIO) spent millions trying and failed. Observers see the major attraction of the so-called “Sun Belt” to be not the low utility rates or the low taxes, but the lack of any union strength. Industries are fleeing states like New York, where 38 per cent of the labor force is organized, and moving to states such as North Carolina, where Chambers of Commerce can “boast” of a 7 per cent figure. According to Business Week magazine, rarely do companies voluntarily extend recognition to a union, and they are not well they do. received when Companies moving south often seek the advice of labor relations dubbed consultants, “union-busters,” on how to keep unions out. J.P. Stevens has gone to greater employing a policy of “economic terrorism” to defeat union organized elections in 14 of their plants. Workers voted against unionization in 13 of the plants. Company officials point to these defeats as solid evidence that most of their workers do not want to be organized. “93 per cent of our people don’t want unions,” said lengths, Stevens James chairman rights.” The union maintained the elections were a farce because of the vicious anti-union tactics used by Stevens. The elections, they claimed, were conducted in a __ ■ Of JADE LOUNGE FOOD TAVERN Hong Kong Chicken with vegetable one said power’,” union negotiator. its track boycott of J.P. Here too, products. though, they have run into problems. Only 34 percent of Stevens’ products reach the public as finished goods, with the rest being sold in unfinished form to other industries. Also, Stevens products are marketed under 22 different labels, none of which nationwide Stevens carry the name J.P. Stevens. This makes identification of their brand names difficult. The company has tried to turn its employees against the boycott. The Chairman of the Board .. Through this recently wrote, nation-wide boycott they are ruthlessly and deliberately, without mercy trying to destroy your jobs and your livelihood.” “ . historically has “Stevens enjoyed excellent relations with its employees. It continues to place a high value on its human resources, and to be optimistic continuity the and about dependability of its labor supply. ”, So said the company in its annual" report of 1974. Based on Stevens’ record, optimism seems poorly founded. In the past ten years, the firm has been ordered to reinstate 287 workers who were illegally fired, and pay them $1.3 million in back pay.

Ordinarily, of course, a union would have struck long ago to resolve such an impasse. But a strike at one location of a giant company like Stevens would be pointless. The firm could easily shift operations DIRECTOR RESTAURANT — “J.P. Stevens is so out of touch with a humane, civilized approach to industrial relations, that it should shock even those least sensitive to honor, justice, and decent treatment." Tnis criticism, offered by former NLRB chairman Boyd Leedon, is supported by the company’s conduct during and after the one election the union did win at a Stevens plant. In Roanoke Rapids, North Carlina, the NLRB had to set down strict guidelines for the company to follow simply to insure a fair election. Workers voted for the union, 1685 to 1448, in 1974. In the three years since then, union and company officials have sat down an average of once a month to agree on a contract. The company, however, refuses to bargain in good faith, according to the NLRB. It refuses to deduct union dues from weekly pay and will not submit to arbitration of by an grievances unsettled third impartial party. These clauses are included in 95 percent of all union contracts in the United States. Instead, Stevens expects the union to somehow collect its dues from workers’ take-home pay, and offers the union the right to strike in the event of unsettled grievances, no matter how trivial. “As a practical matter,” said a union lawyer,” a union can’t be continually on strike. We can’t ask a plant full of workers to sacrifice their wages for weeks at a time because one of them had a disagreement with his supervisor.” D. Finley, “As far as I’m concerned, we’re going to protect their GRAND OPENING the GOOD union climate of fear. Such an atmosphere led the NLRB to term a fair election at plant Ga. Statesboro, “impossible.” The labor board, after a long struggle, ordered the company to accept the union as the legal bargaining agent. Rather than admit defeat, Stevens shut down the plant. ■ Bridge^J deadline is March 14th at 5 pm - NOTE: Tickets from Mar. 4th date are valid & will be honored — All seats Res Tickets available at UB, Norton Union, Buff.

Some can’t even be located when awards are finally made. Furthermore, Stevens can deduct the back pay amounts from their income taxes as a business expense,” and thus in effect lose nothing. Stevens’ lawlessness extends to other areas. The company has been found guilty of tax evasion, industrial piracy, price-fixing and wire-tapping. Yet, with annual sales of over $1.1 billion and healthy profits each year, the company can afford to annually pay its top executive $235,000. pay, —continued from page 5— . . . blacks. The company is now under investigation by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission for alleged violations of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Stevens has been warned repeatedly about safety hazards in its plants. In some factories, noise levels rqach 110 decibels, enough to cause permanent damage to workers’ hearing. Cotton dust levels are consistently above maxim urns. Despite all the investigations by various federal agencies, other arms of the government continue to deal with Stevens.

Wednesday, 9 March 1977 FACULTY Meet the new campus minister for United Ministry to Higher Education MASON JENNIFER & �The right to die Most states remain reluctant to ‘pull the plug’ by Daniel W. Lindley — Special to The Spectrum While medical advances make inroads against death curiously has become a more controversial and widely-discussed topic. Simultaneously, academics from myriad disciplines are groping to provide a groundwork for dealing with the area. The focal point of the controversy centers around a person’s right to die, as dramatized most publicly by the case of Karen Ann Quinlan in New Jersey. In September, 1975, Quinlan’s father, Joseph, asked doctors to remove his 21-year-old daughter, who had been in a coma for five months, from the respirator that was keeping her technically alive. Lengthy court battles ensued until £he New Jersey Supreme Court finally decreed March 31, 1976 that Quinlan could be taken off the respirator if her physicians and a panel of hospital personnel agreed that there was no reasonable possibility of recovery. Since the decision, Quinlan has undergone several recoveries and relapses, and remains comatose to date. Though the personal agonV for the Quinlans has not been relieved by the court decision, the case has renewed interest in the right of the comatose to “death with dignity.” A spokesman for the American Medical Association noted recently that doctors have been “unplugging” their patients for years, but that the recent (CPS) mortality, will 1 be the authentic me sickness does to the body when I’m wracked with pain, lying in my own feces and vomiting? The physician’s responsibility, he summarized, is to preserve the patient’s ‘.‘biological life,” which he added is a person’s true “autonomy.” Dr. Thomas Scheming, a professor at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, said that he thought it necessary to view the right to die from the standpoint of a “consumer” rather than a “physician.” Admitting that it is “not necessarily comforting to have the right to die,” Schelling said he felt that the economic and emotional expense incurred by a family in caring for a dying relative is worse than death itself, and that the drawn-out procedure in fact makes the dying member feel guilty about the cost of his care and the prolonged gloom which his inevitable death is creating. — < increase in malpractice suits has made legal protections a necessity. Dilemmas Dr. Eric Cassell, a clinical professor at the Cornell Medical Center in New York, observed at a February American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) symposium in Denver that although a legal morass can develop when a patient is allowed to expire, it can also be “battery to treat somebody who does not consent.” However, he said that few nurses or doctors will tell a patient “go ahead, die,” and added that patients refusing treatment can be ruled incompetent and taken into care against their will. Arguing that philosophers and lawyers who support an individual’s right to die “act like the body doesn’t exist,” he continued that “we have to take into account what outlines for procedures, and then decisions should-be left up to the discretion of physicians. Challenge Meanwhile, most states are reluctant to grapple with the problem of dying people’s rights, although a new law that went into effect January 1 in California gives citizens there the opportunity to make “living wills” that prohibit use of respirators, dialysis machines, and pther “unusual or artificial means” of sustaining their lives during terminal illnesses. However, the legislation specifically forbids “mercy killings” as well as “any affirmative action” to end a patient’s life. Despite Governor Hugh Carey’s requests for a legal definition of death, the New York Legislature refused to pass a bill that would have defined the phenomenon. And a committee of the Colorado House of Representatives Monstrous recently killed a bill similar to the “right-to-die” legislation in California. could claim “A murderer who had drugged his victim Still, professors like E.

Nobody has struggled harder in modern times to break through the barrier than this president, and his success to date has been brilliant. Word from the country is that the public loves Carter’s blue-jean simplicity. A month after he took office his popularity is high. Somewhere or other, however, there is a line between informality and showmanship, and I think the call-in caper is perilously close to the line. Maybe I am wrong. Maybe we stand at the beginning of a new era where we can dial-a-president at will.

That, he said mildly, 1 was how we got SALT agreements in 1972. The Soviets were then allowed more strategic offensive ballistic missile-launchers than the US; this offset by the US was technological lead which included multi-headed MIRVS. This is what successful negotiation means, he explained calmly. As Sen. Jackson tried to trip him up Warnke poured a glass of ice-water and did not raise his voice. Rarely do we see a witness with such aplomb. On the same day that Warnke appeared, Congress, in joint session, had its first look at Prime Minister Trudeau, who is threatened by the separationist drive of French-speaking Quebec. The Quebec premier Rene Levesque was down in New York last month trying to reassure US investors. bankers and Accompanied by about 80 Canadian reporters Trudeau came to Washington to make what, in effect, was a political reply. The essence of the traditional US relationship to Canada is to trade, trust and take for granted. For Canada it is an infuriating big-brother attitude. But that 3000-mile unfortified, border is one of the few really good things in a sorry world. Clad in gray business suit with a jaunty rosebud in his lapel, Trudeau in a quiet, modulated voice “with all the certainty I can command that Canada’s unity will not be fractured.” Maybe it’s unfair to the Quebecoises (Trudeau called them Quebeckers) but everybody here hopes he’s right. The friendly applause was not noisy but it went on and on and on. From Ralph Bakshi, master of animation, comes an epic fantasy in wondrous color.

To the Editor — — ... G.A., Dept: of History Religious persecution I am writing this letter to express my opinion about a deplorable situation that is currently distracting some of the students at this University. I am speaking of the situation involving the University and one of the finest teachers 1 have ever had the opportunity to know. I am speaking of Dr. ROSENBLATT! This semester is my first at the University and from the first day on campus, 1 could tell that the University’s reputation as being one of the finest in the state was well founded. Y was attending my classes and actually learning something. It was a strange feeling indeed, after three semesters at ECC. I was proud to tell people that I attended the University of Buffalo. It made me feel special. But now I don’t seem to have that feeling any longer. When I heard about the situation with Dr. Rosenblatt it made me feel ashamed to say that 1 was a student. Here we have a professor who is very dedicated to teaching his students. I have had my share of teachers and I can say this with all honesty. Dr. Rosenblatt, by far, is the best professor I’ve come across. He explains things so well that unless you’re sleeping, you can’t help but understand. I can say that because I am a veteran and I have not had any Math since 1968 and find it difficult to grasp all that goes on in class. That is where Dr. Rosenblatt has been so helpful. His explanations of the principles in Statistics have made it possible for me to understand what is going on. Now to my utter dismay I find that he is on the chopping block because of his religious beliefs. 1 find this situation totally disgusting. Here we have a teacher who is genuinely interested in his students and isn’t afraid to spend extra time with them. Most of the teachers ,1 have known do what they have to do and no more. But because they don’t ask for a simple request so that they can observe their religion properly, they are allowed to continue d oing their mediocre work. But not Dr. Rosenblatt, he must be subjected tp nothing less than religious persectuion, the very thing he left his home to avoid. The man comes to this country because it offers him the freedom he so desperately needed. Then when he gets here he is subjected to the same thing, but only under a different name. This University is making a joke out of what this country is supposed to stand for. Freedom of Religion should mean exactly that FREEDOM. But to me it seems to mean freedom, as long as you don’t cause problems. A person living in this country is guaranteed freedom of Religion under the Constitution of the United States. In this Bi-Cenfennial era it is nice to know that all that our ancestors gave their lives for can so easily be cast aside. I’m sure that if these people were alive today they would be massing to demonstrate against the University and its administrators. But in this age we live in, unfortunately too many people have forgotten what our country means to other people in oppressed countries. They look to the U.S.A. as their last chance in life. Many have given their lives attempting to break these chains of - . ■n S.A. Senate TODAY Wed. March 9-3-5 pm Haas Lounge Meeting with Dr. Somit persecution. To the Editor: f- 1375 Millersport Hwy. Amherst When I see a person such as Dr. Rosenblatt, it makes me feel good. It’s a refreshing change from the hypocrisy one sees in today’s religion. But just because a person believes in his religion so deeply that he won’t do a thing that goes against his beliefs, he must walk a tight line, so that he can continue to function as a person, but still maintain his religious values. When I see a person being treated unfairly, no matter what the reason, I must speak out. Because of his devotion to his religion he has come under unusual pressure from the University. The rescheduling of classes on Friday doesn’t constitute an unforgivable offense. Especially when no student has been unduely affected. I would think that the University would be only to glad to help out Dr. Rosenblatt. It doesn’t seem like an unsurrmountable problem that intelligent people couldn’t solve. I must inject that firing a well qualified professor doesn’t seem to be an acceptable solution. I was once told that the most important part of any University are the STUDENTS!! And if the University would take the time to ask the students their opinions, I’m quite sure they would completely disagree with the University’s current stand. But then again, maybe the person that made the above statement, really did not mean it and said it only because it sounded good. Before I close this letter I would like to make one further point. Because of all this controversy I’m sure there will be ensuing court battles. Who is going to pay the court costsTThe Taxpayers of New York State, of course! That is another thing that seems to be unfair. Just because the University doesn’t go along with the religious beliefs of Dr. Rosenblatt. The taxpayers must pay for court battles that can only add to the heavy burden of taxes that we taxpayers must pay. I’m sure that if the public was informed of this farce that is going to take place, they would soon be down the throats of everyone concerned. I can see the headlines UB-CANS PROFESSOR BECAUSE OF RELIGIOUS BELIEFS- I wouldn’t consider that favorable publicity. Before any decision is made on what action should be taken against Dr. Rosenblatt, 1 think it advisable to consider the student reaction. There is a growing wave of students that think Dr. Rosenblatt is being grossly mistreated. It has been a long time since the students have had anything to band together about. Could this be it?I can’t think of a better cause. Please excuse me for my long-windedness, but I have strong convictions about such matters. When I see something like this I feel 1 must speak out. After all I think I have the right to free speech and to express my views openly. If I’m not mistaken I’m guaranteed those rights the same way Dr. Rosenblatt’s religious rights and freedoms are guaranteed. Once again, please forgive me for the language and context of this letter, but such PERSECUTION MUST STOP' Page ten . The Spectrum .

And 1 don’t think we had there twenty percent, and that’s a highly directed institution, in a time when people were very, very, highly professionally oriented. So nowadays, 1 bet if you did a survey it would shock you. It seems to me that if that’s the case, terview Jonathan Reichert speaks on ‘State of the University’ the note: Jonathan Editor’s eichert is presently Chairman of e Faculty Senate, and a 'ofessor of'Physics. He first came > this University in 1971, and has nee been a center of numerous mtroversies. He was head of the acuity Senate committee that roduced the "Reichert rospectus” on the Colleges, ’hich set the stage for many of ie Colleges’ controversies in the ast two years. Managing Editor Laura Bartlett onducted !eichert this last interview week, ought to recognize how they ought to respond. with And the graduate school, I’d covering say, is highly dependent upon the departments. I think we have a opics from grading policies to the \mherst Campus amf budget cuts, Reichert’s xcerpts from omments will also appear in the Juffalonian. Why do students today go to ■allege, and why do they come to his University in particular? A: Veil, to begin with I really think that’s a terrible question, Laura, jecause I’m not a student, so I really can’t answer that. You ): could probably answer that better than I could. Why do they come here? Well, we get about half our students from the local area; I would guess, I mean I think we have a pretty decent University here. It’s cheap; 1 suppose it’s convenient. I don4 really know. I don’t know why you’d ask a faculty member why students come here. Q: Well, / guess I figured you see and come in contact with so many students I mean, I know why I came here, hut A: Students don’t,really tell you that. They complain about what they do or don’t get, but rarely does a student tell you why he or she came to the University. I also don’t have as much contact as you might think. Although I teach Physics, 1 teach a large section. I may have 180 students, but I don’t remember a student ever itelling me why they came here. [Occasionally, a student you know very well, maybe one that worked in my lab or something. Students usually don’t let that out. So I really haven’t got much notion, it would be just a guess. Q: Do you feel students are more concerned with the career preparation their education will provide them than in the past? A: 1 can respond to Hat. Yes, I think students are The most concerned. ore amatic evidence of that comes i the poor souls who teach students, pre-dental e-med udents. I say that because I ink you ought to get battle pay ir teaching those students. It n’t that you should take a anket swipe at such students, ut really out of a class of 250 udents you’re going to have bout 40 or 50 of them who are ;ally difficult to deal with. My ollegues tell me these stories, bout people who are so uptight bout grades, they will hound ou. I wouldn’t be surprised to ear even of physical assaults on acuity; it wouldn’t surprise me at 11. Those people are really iptight about grades. But I enerally see a large percentage of he population who really want to ;et an education. I think students ire much more concerned, you ee all kinds of evidence of that all icross the nation. That’s a louble-edged sword from the way look at it. On the other hand, t’s nice to have students in your classes who want to learn. On the other hand, that is sometimes faculty that and deal with it, namely, we shouldn’t accept students’ words. We should remind time of that fact, and say, look, your object is to get an education; you may think you want to do that, and maybe you will, we don’t want to stop you, but we want to let you know that it’s unlikely that is what you will end up doing with your life. So, you ought to be prepared, with that in mind. And, 1 think that’s how we ought to respond, and we ought to make the students understand that’s - - translated to wanting to get a grade rather than wanting to learn, and viewing the University as a way of passage to a diploma, with a certain set of numbers after your name called your cum, or your grade point average. And that I find very difficult to deal with. It leads to more cheating, plagiarism of all sorts, and I see evidence of that. A year and a half ago when I was teaching a large dass; (Physics) 107, for the first time in my fifteen years of teaching, I had cheating to deal with. And I had a lot of it. Everything from calculators being stolen, to a student taking the exam who was not a member of the class, to some very bad cheating, which happened to have been admitted by the student. And this I find a great shame. I’m also afraid students are less willing to dabble outside their narrow interests as much, unless it’s to get a course, rather than to really learn something. So on the other hand, it’s encouraging that students have a positive attitude toward their education, which is largly paid for by the taxpayer, but on. the other hand this seriousness can sometimes lead the student to lend himself to some very unfortunate kinds of attitudes. It’s a mixed blessing. Q: How would you assess the quality of education students receive at this University? A: Well, I would certainly divide that between graduate and undergraduate. I would say that for undergraduate if education at this University you’re interested in an integrated program that does pot have a “disciplinary” professional, outlook, this school does a terrible job. If you come to this University as a bright-eyed bushy tailed kid who wants to learn, but is unsure of what he or she wants to learn, and has broad interests, - and would like to get a general education, I think you’ve come to the wrong University. 1 hate to say that, but except for a little Vico College attempt, we have really no good general program set It becomes a up for them. smorgasboard of taking courses that are totally unrelated to each other, and 1 think we’ve done a very poor job. If you come to this University to be a certain type of thing; to be a historian or a writer or a physicist or a chemist or an artist, and you’re pretty sure of that, and that’s what you go into, I think you will find after the first couple of years, depending on you’ll find your department that you have a close contact with faculty, you will get a good education in that area, you will get to know people, your classes will be quite reasonable in size, in fact, quite manageable, 1 think we have at that level a kind of professionalism and I mean that word in the broadest context. 1 . . . think there are some weak spots and some very great strengths, but 1 think that we’re generally alright. Where I think we fail miserably is with the student who is not sure. And 1 would guess that only a tiny fraction of the student body actually end up doing in their life what they say they want to do when they come to the University. I bet it’s less than ten percent, who actually do what they say they want to do. “I want to be a physician,” and they actually become a physician. That’s a very tiny fraction of people. At an Engineering school where everybody was either an engineer or a mathematician or a physicist, it’s incredible how few of those actually ended up doing the specialty they picked, or even ended up doing engineering or physics. Many of them went into graduate of variety wide education. In some departments we hav6 very find students and a very fine program, in other departments we have reasonably good faculty and rather poor students, and it’s a very mixed bag. There I think, you would have to pick the departments and so forth. I think, generally, this institution has jiot been able to attract the quality of graduate students we would like, and that’s probably because there are more graduate schools in the country than the country really needs. The competition becomes fierce to get the highest students. But I think in some parts of the University we attract very good students to our graduate program, in other departments 1 think the program is better than the students. So 1 think the graduate program is probably not like most of us would like to see it, and I’m not sure how to get it there. Q: How valuable are such innovative programs as the Colleges to the University? In these times of budgetary austerity, will they be able to survive? A: Well, the second part of the question is easier to answer than the first. There’s no question the Colleges can survive if the administration wishes them to survive, and if they are given the resources to survive. Of course, in order for them to survive they have to be productive. You know, you’re asking a loaded question to me because, after all, I’m very prejudiced in this matter, since 1 was Chairman of the Faculty Senate committee that rewrote the College Prospectus. I’d have to honestly say that I think the Senate’s work on the Colleges was one of the more remarkable things I’ve ever been involved in, because, to a large extent, what we thought would work, worked. And that’s an unusual thing, when institution as a student, I would probably associate myself with one of these Colleges. They are the basis of both social life and academic life. The idea that you have a manageable unit in this ' enormous, vast place, seems to me 1 think that very attractive. they’ve done a remarkable job. I think that we’re very fortunate to have Irv Spitzberg, who took unbelievable abuse when he first came into that office. Everything from a threat on his life, to all kinds of personal abuses from somy of the more despicable student body we’ve had around here, and other people. And he prevailed. He just didn’t let it get him. And he’s worked diligently to build a collegiate system that is strong and coherant and doing and interesting things academically viable in 99 percent of what it does, I think, and has tried and succeeded in getting and regular faculty involved, gotten rid of a lot of the stigma attached to the Colleges, got some interesting innovations going on. I think we’re very very fortunate, I think there are very few people who would have put up with the shit tjjat he did and made it succeed. I certainly hope they continue and grow. They’ve never been really really supported by the University administration, but on the other hand, they haven’t been as badly attacked as people would imagine. They’ve had some support, and I look forward to them growing, as one of the last vestiges of the sixties, early 70’s, which are disappearing. People are forgetting about those things and the positive things that go on in those Colleges. I’m very pleased, I hope they sustain and grow, and 1 suspect they will. Q: Recent years have seen efforts to “tighten” academic standards at this University and throughout Are these favorable SUNY. changes, in your opinion? Have things been tod easy for students in the past? A: Yes, they’re not strong enough for my liking. See, I have the following attitude, and it is one that is not conscious, but I sort of recognize it in myself consciously. This University gets the cream of the crop of the state; of the public sector, we get the No public best students. institution in this state gets better or brighter kids than we do. I don’t think this faculty realizes it. When I walk into that class and I see, say 200 students in an introductory physics course, 1 that these kids had to graduate high school with a lot higher average than I had. They’re bright kids, they want to learn something. They’re capable of realize learning something. They want to be scientists of some sort or other. Fine, I’m all for it. And 1 happen to be very proud, One thing about my faculty, that is the Natural Sciences and Mathematics faculty, is a faculty that takes academic standards as seriously as any faculty in this University. If you you plan something, you write look at the grading patterns, for and it actually this faculty, you’ll see that we’re documents, happens. practically the only one that uses I think the Colleges are a very F. People do fail, in the Natural valuable part of the University. 1 Sciences, and they get D’s, they don’t agree with everything that get F’s. I’ve taught courses where goes on in the Colleges, I’ve still 30 percent of the class failed or had some battles, albeit that 1 withdrew, maybe more. We do keep them pretty much between have standards, and we should myself and certain few people, have standards. We have bright and don’t make them public. But kids. That’s not to say the 20 I feel the Colleges are a very percent of the class may not get important part of the University. an A, but that these standards are This is such a vast institution. something that 1 think this There are so few places where you University has neglected. And I can get into a situation that’s blame the faculty, 1 blame my manageable, at the early stages, colleagues, for pussyfooting. 1 the freshman-sophmore years, recognize that we’re dealing with where you can know people, work very intelligent students, who, with people, who can help you given the challenge, 99 percent of understand the University. The them will respond and do high Colleges offer an opportunity that quality work. We’ve lived through just doesn’t exist other places, and a time when a professor would —continued on page 12— I think if I were coming to this Wednesday, 9 March 1977 . The Spectrum . Page eleven �Reichert interview. if a student wrote ah essay, well, how do you know if they deserve an A or an F? I mean, it’s their own creative instincts. I say bullshit! Most of their life will not be spent in this institution If we feel their creative instincts should be expressed in the following ways, we ought to let the students know that a the beginning of the course. If they can’t do it, quit, take it from somebody else, but we ought to demand certain qualities of the English language, of neatness, of promptness, of using data that is available. 1 don’t believe that even in those creative arts you can’t set standards up. Jackson Powell could paint classical painting magnificantly, before he ever went into this wild abstraction. He learned the discipline of classical art before he ever went into modernistic expression. I don’t think that’s an say, unreasonable thing to expect. Although, I’m not in that area. My own area is easier to set standards, and my standards are high. And my class knows it. But when they’re all done, they’ve learned some physics. I take great pride; this kid knows physics. And there’s no reason why they shouldn’t. And so I believe we’re far too lax at this University, we haven’t even begun to tough the surface of academic standards, I believe we ought to accept you students for what you are, bright. You’re the cream of the crop. This is not a remedial institution. If it was, it’s a different problem, you have to deal with it differently. You have to take people quietly, cautiously, in a nonthreatening way, build them up, give them some confidence, develop. That’s a whole different kind of education. I’m not knocking that kind of education, but there are institutions in the SUNY system that must deal with that. That is not our job. We don’t have that kind of student. Maybe a handful of the special programs, a small they’re really but minority. We get the cream of the crop, and we ought to teach you like you’re the cream of the crop. You ought to come out of here with one hell of an education. You ought to be challenged, made to deliver, made to produce, and graded accordingly, I believe if we set those standards the students will come right up to them. There’s no doubt in my mind that my assessment of the student body is accurate. They are bright, they are capable, they can work and they can perform, and 1 think ultimately the students will appreciate it, ultimately, when all is said and done. So I don’t think we’ve been nearly tightening our belts enough. That’t my opinion. I’m glad to see the trend increasing, but it’s not fast enough for me. Q: The budgetary austerity of recent years has been severely felt by SUNY. Have cutbacks significantly hurt the this quality academic of University? A: Yes, they have, but in a strange way. They’ve hurt, not so much because of the actual money, but by two things, it seems to me. They’ve hurt because we’ve been endlessly preoccupied with them. Our administration spends all of its time, or a large fraction of its time, dealing with the problem. That’s what they do. They no sooner get one budget sealed than they’re worried about the next one. There is very little creative in this thought going .on University, by anyone. People are protecting their asses, that’s what they’re doing. Protect your ass, that modus operandium of this University. Protect your ass, don’t Page twelve . get cut off, because that’s what’s happening. What we don’t have at this University is people thinking about how they’re going to plan programs and' utilize resources. to They’re trying protect themselves, they’re trying to guard , against this cutback or trying to prevent somebody from taking this technician away or this secretary or that facility or that xerox machine. Everybody is trying to do that. People are also fudging data Everybody, crazy. like everybody’s putting a little bit of fudge here, a little bit of fudge there, how do we inflate this, how do we inflate that. I wouldn’t say there’s outright lying going on, although there probably is a little of that, but mostly you find people just nudging a bit. How do you get a kid in here, how can we get a few more FTE’s in there. This is not creative kinds of activities for a university. People aren’t sitting around thinking about ways to educate people, they’re thinking about how they can save themselves. When you have this kind of thing going on, it just destroys the heart of an academic institution. So we have, it seems to me, Jhe budgetary cuts, which have hurt us in strange ways. Not the ways mos people would guess. Not because of fired, faculty members being particularly, and therefore we don’t have enough people to teach or something like that. That’s not, I don’t think, the most significant. That happens occasionally. There are some problems, but I think it’s the perception of the cuts, and to deal with them trying endlessly. 1 think personally the union is a part of this problem. We have a union here which is mandating all kinds of other ways to protect your ass. I don’t want the University to necessarily be always thinking about this. I want see the University seek to want to see I excellence. excellence promoted. I want to new programs, I want to see new ways of educating, I want to see innovation. .1 want to see people involved in what the University is all about, not see protective systems. Now when you have to do firing at the University, retrenchment, and tenure being threatened, yoU are certainly, and then the development of a union, endlessly building which is another protect-your-ass kind of institution, that’s all everybody’s thinking about. Nobody’s thinking about the quality of education and the research going on. Everybody’s trying to protect themselves. And this is the most serious problem. How do you deal with it? 1 don’t know in a realistic sense, but I could say this to the state legislature; give us a four year budget or a three year budget. If we had had to made these cuts, and known that over the next two years, we had to live with it. Okay, we have to deal with this. If we knew we had to make cuts over the next three years, we could make them and get out of that trauma, and then begin to be a creative kind of institution within limits. It reminds me of this Physics building. I’ve been involved in developing its programs and the money which the state gave us for capital construction. I couldn’t begin; there isn’t enough tape in the world to tell the story, it’s so God damned long painful. But just to give you an idea, everytime we turn around in this department, there’s another cut going on. Four we planned years ago, a department and new laboratories The Spectrum . Wednesday, 9 March 1977 —continued from page 11— \ • • and teaching new courses and research, and those things have changed eight, ten, twenty times, depending on how many times you want to talk about the cuts and all that. The upshot is that the state’s money is being very poorly spent. If they had made the cuts four years ago and said, okay Physics, you have this money. It’s yours, you spend it as wisely as you can and justify it. Even if the cuts had been more severe that they ultimately have come out to be, we could have dealt with that problem. We can’t deal with this ever shifting bracket. How can our faculty and administration deal with the fact that Bob Ketter’s got to go to Albany every year for another crisis? The governor’s and then executive budget, another budget, and then the budget, and supplemental everything else. It’s crazy, and it’s incredibly consuming. And if our doesn’t do administration everything possible to fight for every penny, then they look like they’ve done a terrible job, right? Look at the Graduate Student screaming Association, bloody murder about stipends. They’re right, it’s terrible. But they’re wrong in believing that this institution hasn’t recognized that and done everything it can to fight for them. Now maybe that’s a political move that would help, I don’t know. But I can tell you that there isn’t a faculty member of this or a ■ member administration that doesn’t want to increase that salary. We’re not getting the graduate students we want. It’s in our own interest, we know that. We’re losing good students. We’re not fighting these guys, we agree with them. So endlessly our administration is in this position of fighting for us. What we’ve got to change if we’re going to have quality education for budgetary prices is that the state’s going to have to get itself into the financial situation where it can give the now I imagine state institutions this is true of any institution, it’s the educational only not institutions some long range monetary committments. So that the administrations of these institutions can stop every year dealing with budgetary matters. And I can tell you Hayes Hall is consumed by that, and it’s exhausting. And that’s where it hurts us, that’s the most serious thing. I don’t think its the actual monetary reductions. There are some. We have cut support in this services so tightly everything’s institution that marginal. Nothing is easy to get, nothing. There isn’t a single thing we can do that is easy, that requires some support services. A purchase, or a janitorial service or a secretary, nothing is easy. And that wears on people. It really does, it slows everybody down, and pretty soon it becomes pretty discouraging. So 1 think if we had made decisions to not do certain things, make priorities, maybe cut our whole programs, over a period of time, and then staff in other areas sufficient, so that things would become easier, 1 think that’s hurt us. Especially in research where we have become really discouraged. And I’ll tell you, the most productive scholars and research scientist, and people in the humanities, will find other institutions that haven’t been so badly cut, and they will leave, and they are leaving and they have left. So that’s what 1 think has hurt us, but I don’t think the actual — — higher education much more much, that are efficient. And there are states that do it. I’m not talking about Jonathan Reichert’s Utopia, I’m talking about other states that really do it. And the simplest reason, I’d say is this. If you re building a road, I suppose if you’re the state legislature you’ve got a right to say, I’d better have a don’t see there’s a real academic contract written because the guy difference. I think the differences who’s going to be building that with students today are in terms road is very likely to add more of attitudes, life styles, and other sand to the concrete to save a few things.

Now and that’s not the way to deal that’s a hell of a lot of money. If with higher education.

The Potsdam team had won nine straight and the Bulls were 6-8 on the season, and yet it was the latter team that emerged as the victor, 60-53. , “I’m very satisfied,” said Buffalo coach Liz Cousins. “This is an upset as far as I’m concerned.” Cousins had a lot to be pleased about, especially in the first half, when the Bulls passed, shot and rebounded with textbook accuracy. Potsdam led only once during the game, 2-0. After that, Buffalo’s precision offense took over, and ran away with the game. Senior Marilyn Dellwardt started the scoring for Buffalo with a short jumpshot. Teammate Gabi Gray followed with a lay-up on a pass from Dellwardt. Gray got an assist of her own on Buffalo’s next offensive play when she passed to Regina Frazier who scored on a jump shot. Chadwick scores thirty The Bulls defensive strategy was also working almost perfectly. “We wanted to let them take outside shots, but keep our defense tight, while maintaining our boxing out position, explained Cousins. Potsdam was forced to take outside shots which they consistantly missed, scoring only five points in the first ten minutes of the game. Meanwhile, Buffalo continued its offensive onslaught. Freshman Paula Hills grabbed a rebound, and quickly made a basket to give the Bulls a five point lead. Then freshman Marilyn Brown made a jump shot to increase the lead to seven. The Bulls had an extremely balanced offense at this time, with five different players scoring the first I.R.C.- five baskets. They also took turns with assists and rebounds. The Wrestling Bulls ended their season at the Eastern. Wrestling League Championships at Lock Haven State College in Pennsylvania this past weekend. “As a group, our boys did not wrestle poorly, but as individuals some did well,” stated Buffalo cottch Ed Michael. As indidivuals, five Buffalo grapplers did wrestle well, but the team’s final standing speaks for itself. The Bulls placed sixth out of the field of six teams. Penn State captured the League Championship for the second straight year, followed by Bloomsburg State, Clarion State, Lock Haven, Pittsburg and the last place Bulls. The Championship also was a qualifying tournament for the NCAA Championships in Oklahoma. The only Bull to qualify was co-captain Kirk Anderson, who wrestled at 158 punds. Both Michael and his assistant Scott Stever agreed that there was a certain amount of bias in the selection of only one Buffalo wrestler. Buffalo tires The Bulls kept increasing their lead until at one point, they held an 18-3 edge on Potsdam. Then, Potsdam forward Jeane Pomerville got hot and made four baskets, mostly on baseline drives, to get Potsdam back in the game. Potsdam’s defense tightened up, and limited Buffalo to three points in five minutes. “The kids got tired,” said Cousins, “and started getting into foul trouble.” The Bulls regained their momentum a little towards the end of the half with the score 27-19. Frazier, Hills and Barb Fislar each made a basket, and then co-captain Nan Harvey made two long ‘Hurt by sectionalism’ jump shots in the last minute. The half ended with “We were hurt by sectionalism,” commented Michael. “The other the Bulls leading, 35-23. coaches voted as a block,” he added. Michael is refering to the fact that Buffalo looked more sloppy, in the second had the Bulls are the only non-Pennsylvania school in the league. half. They weren’t getting good shots that they the and Potsdam their Michael’s gripe centers around the Bulls’ Bob Marineck and Dave first, succeeded against in defense by driving instead of taking outside shots.

But a short time later, the selection For most of the half, the two teams traded committee reversed its decision and dropped Martineck in favor of baskets. First, Hills scored on a jumpshot, and then another Pennsylvania athlete. Likewise, Mitchell, who captured third Potsdam’s Joanne Venezia came back with a similar place, was totally bypassed by the reviewing coaches. “They didn’t shot. Next, Frazier scored for Buffalo, and him,” said Michael solemnly. Pomerville answered with another of her drives. even consider “1 feel that a terrible injustice was done against Bob [Martineck],” Then, it was Frazier again with a jumpshot followed “When [Lock Haven by Venezia’s lay-up.

Buffalo has a chance to end the season with a During that stretch, the Bulls also captured the New York State .500 record when they play Canisius tonight at 7 Championship Title. p.m. at Clark Hall. What caused that sudden change in the Bulls performance two months ago? Stever believes that, "as a team, the guys matured. They overcame adverse conditions and rose to the occasion.” He added, “This young team was not exposed to big-time wrestling initially, and once they were exposed to it and began to win against scholarship wrestlers, they no longer read press clippings about those wrestlers. They read about themselves.” The outlook for next season is quite promising. With eight returning grapplers from this year’s squad, the nucleus for a competitive Buffalo squad is set.-Stever added, “Now that they are seasoned, they should wrestle with greater intensity next year.” But the end of the season also marks the end of the careers of two Buffalo matmen, Martineck and Rich Bopp. Characterized as an unselfish person, Bopp filled the Bulls heavyweight shoes under adverse One of circumstances.

INTRAMURALS by Don Weiss Spectrum Staff Writer Intramural basketball playoffs begin this week with a single elimination tournament for the “A” and “B” leagues. First and second round games will be played all this week with final round games next week. In the “A” league, the leading contenders for the title are Lippes Loop (7-2) and the BSU Panthers (5-4). Tonight, in first round action, the Loop faces The Omen (5-4), The Loop are going into this game with an impressive fiye-game winning streak, playing in the tough Wednesday night division. They are led by the front line of Phil Rosenberg, Jim Randall, and Jim Slayton. BSU faces Murray, winners of the first semester of the Monday night division. Murray’s chances of upsetting BSU depend on their ability to contain Otis Horne and Gene Henderson of the Panthers. The winner of this game will play the winner of the ’game between the'Boss Players and the Med School. The Boss Players are led by Olin Mack and Oscar James. Flash vs. Blue In another first round game tonight, Flashbuck (5-4) opposes Blue (3-1) in what should be the closest of the night’s games. Flash is coming off a depressing loss to Lippes Loop last week, and if they are to bounce back, they must get consistent play from their front line of Steve Weiner and Donald Weiss. Guard Paul Yu, playing in his fifth consecutive tournament, must give Flash experience Hear 0 Israel For gems from the JEWISH BIBLE Phone 875-4265 and leadership.

B league games In “B” league playoff action Sunday, the Dynasty eliminated the Bugouts 41-28, behind the scoring of Frank Boggan. The Dynasty must now face Dog Puke, who is undefeated all year, but weakened by the loss of injured guard Mike Betz. In other games, The Breeze beat the Trogans 49-31, to move into the second round against the highly rated College H; and Shooting Semen beat the Blue Dogs 49-40 to advance to the second round against Who’s Next.

In another case, a photographer refused to identify himself, and said when questioned, “I’m not taking pictures for anybody.” The rally closed when the negotiating team emerged from Hayes Hall with thumbs down after only 30 minutes of the planned hour-long meeting. “Ketter has not changed his position,” declared Union representative Stratton Rawson,’“We will do what we must.” Statistics box Women’s Basketball vs. Potsdam, March 4, Clark Hall.

The petition’s author, Michael Stephen Levinson, charged that Student Association (SA) officials had violated the rules for referenda by distributing leaflets arguing against approving the referendum and by urging students to vote no at SA sponsored events. SA officials replied that the leaflets were paid for out of their own pockets, and were therefore legal. “ 1 margin Irregularities in the balloting were reported by students.

Kunz announced significant changes in the present system of pass/fail (S/U) grading effective September 1977. Students will no longer be allowed to elect S/U grading for courses that are prerequisites to or requirements for their major. S/U options must be elected by the end of the “drop and add” registration period, which will be September 23 for next fall. A petitioning process to recover a letter grade will be instituted for students who elect the S/U option and subsequently change majors. These policies and procedures were enacted through the unanimous passage of a Faculty Senate resolution. Standard request forms for S/U grading will be available in the Office of Admissions and Records and Undergraduate Education Advisement Office. the Division of by Gabriele Pohlenz Spectrum Staff Writer The Third World Newsletter, published by the Third World Student Association (TWSA) at this University, is making an effort to inform the Buffalo community about' the struggles socio-economic occurring in the countries of the Third World. The TWSA began in November, 1976 as a result of the successful “Third World Week” program which was held from Nov. 17—Nov. 20. This event was organized by the Third World and American students who were to promote a better awareness of movements in the Third World, the factors that influence these movements and the resultant impacts. The events of that week formed the basis for the TWSA, which was formerly a part of the Graduate Student Association. At present, the organization includes 20 active members. They come from India, Pakistan, Palestine, Egypt, Malaysia, Puerto Rico, Yemen, Viet-Nam, Hong Kong, Iran, Jamaica, Zaire, Spain and the United' States. Through the newsletter and various events, they express their solidarity with the countries of the Third World, which extends over the continents of Asia, Africa and Latin America, and support their struggles for political independence and against Until now, two editions of the Third World Newsletter have organized by the appeared, publication committee of the TWSA. Articles are submitted by different groups, and not by individuals, so as to get a wider range of people involved. The April edition was accompanied by a special pamphlet on the “Food Day.” What appears in the newsletter deals with ongoing events in countries that do not appear on most front of page the newspapers. Its publishers pick editorial, followed by three or four articles that investigate movements in detail. A news series presents a summary of events in different countries, followed by a poetry section poems printed from Third World authors as well as unknown American authors. Finally, future activities are announced. — Will teach others The May edition will have an additional section where readers can express their opinions and where reviews of films and books odt movements of tremendous impact in specific countries which will be printed. TWSA members will probably not be picked up by the mass media. The articles are based on information gathered students’ native from the newspapers as well as from other Third World groups and their printing, layout, and distribution of the newsletter, which keeps costs to a minimum, necessary because the TWSA does not do the trying imperialism. Supporters of the arrested protesters at Seabrook, New Hampshire, staged a small play in the Fillmore Room last week to rally support for those still imprisoned. Members of the University community who participated in the protest began returning this week. Others from the Buffalo area, estimated at around 15, were released Friday, after agreeing to allow lower courts in New Hampshire to direct guilty verdicts in each case. Prosecutors allowed all protestors who wished to plead innocent automatic appeals to higher courts Protesters from Buffalo were petitioning to have their cases tried as a group, rather than individually. Recent activities Several public activities were hald in the past which provided the public with information of concerning the problems countries. The underdeveloped first was the “Third World Week” held last November, followed in by this year of March “International Women’s Day,” which focused on women in the Third World. During the same “Weekend in the month, Solidarity with Puerto Rico” dealt with Puerto Rico’s struggle for and independence self-determination. The two outstanding activities in April were the “Conference on Imperialism” and “Food Day” which focused on subjects such as and hunger, food aid and overpopulation and development. publications. Favorable response The first edition, which was published in March of this year, had a favorable response. About editions were 500 600 distributed on campus, and others off campus. The newsletter is Buffalo available three in bookstores: Emma, on Fillmore Bookstore; and Unity Ave.; Everyone’s Bookstore, on Main Street. The newsletter, by providing information and analysis, tries to reach an audience that has not yet formed an opinion about the Third World’s socio-economic struggle, \and tries to fill La the the mass media. blanks Each newsletter opens with an — receive formal support. As a new activity is planned and organiz-J, the group goes to the appropriate organizations and asks them for financial help. Members welcome any support and hope students and. faculties will provide them with financial aid in the future as well as a space from which to operate. One attempt to support the TWSA is being made by the members themselves. Next fall three of them will teach courses in Recently, Women’s Studies. through the intermediary Buffalo Council on World Affairs, the association was given the chance to speak before classes in city schools about the Third World. A organized more program, provide could however, presentations regularly, and not on a scattered individual basis. �Reconversion of war funds voted by UUP GSA fee retained Graduate students at this University have voted by a 686 to 233 margin, with nine abstentions, to retain the Graduate Student Association (GSA) mandatory activity fee, currently set at $9.50 per semester.

Basho calls this rhythm natural, “furyu” (wind fluent) immediate, evanescent, and graceful. Thus, is wisdom wind and lightning. And we, when' we lighten up, chuck what’s stuck and let our spring thing through. Easily said. But within our heads and in our beds, our Thoughts work like accountants, compounding our interest, daily “putting words in our mouths,” “losing sleep,” “counting sheep,” “trying to keep it together.” Lightouch is the story of two people meeting. We meet them as they meet one another and we meet their dreams (or absence of dreams). We meet them on the street; we meet tham on a seat in front of the television. They ache and they act out and mingle with their thoughts and reach into one another through the various musics, poems, dances, enigmatic loops, home movies, walkabouts, self-doubts, harrangues, and nervous bliss of two people — getting-to-know-one-another; to that become “wind fluent” is everywhere-all-the-time, which — knowable only by what it moves.

The heart of Jewish law the Torah holiday of Shavous, which began Sunday night and continues until tomorrow, is also special because it recaptures the time when God first designated the Jews as “chosen” and handed down the law to all not just a select few of the Jewish people. “The Jewish religion is the only religion in which God reveals himself to all the pc-iple at the same time,” without requiring an intermediary, according to Rabbi Noson Gurari. This embodies the concept of every Jew having a personal experience with God, Gurari said, and that they themselves were the prophets. Shavous is being celebrated at both the old Chabad House, located on Main Street directly across from the campus, and at the sparkling new Amherst Campus Chabad House, at 2501 North Forest Rd., just behind the Ellicott Complex.

Laughable Loves Milan Kundera Introduction by Philip Roth Penguin $3.50 Penguin’s “Writers from the Other Europe” Series, begun in 1975, has been publishing hitherto unknown or unavailable works by modem Czech, Polish, and Hungarian writers, many of whom cannot be published in their own countries. Of these authors, Milan Kundera is undoubtably the most accessible, and will probably become the most popular. Kundera, who is Czech, is better known in America for the suppression of his work by Czech authorities than for the work itself, a situation which the publication of LAUGHABLE LOVES should promptly rectify. LAUGHABLE LOVES is a collection of seven sexual comedies, incisive and very funny inquiries into the social behavior of human beings that ultimately call both the terms “sexual” and “comedy” into question. Man as a sexual animal is not necessarily man as a social animal, Kundera is telling us; why else would he (and she) be forever engaging in the most intimate and significant act that he knows of. without being either significant or intimate in his behavior towards it? All the stories in this volume are good, and one of them, “Let the Old Dead Make Room for the Young Dead”, will become a small classic. The price of the book is fairly high, but well worth it.—G.F. John Lennon: One Day at a Time A Personal Biography of the Seventies Anthony Fawcett Grove Press $6.95 This book, by John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s on.etime personal secretary and companion, is in no way a “biography of the Seventies;’’ it tells, quite straightforwardly, the major events in Lennon’s and Ono’s lives from their meeting in 1966 to the present. Anthony Fawcett, himself a former art critic, is able to write intelligently about Ono’s and later Lennon’s various art projects, exhibitions, and philosophies, although he is less convincing in justifying the high regard for their work he holds. The best parts of the book are his accounts of Johnand Yoke’s early exhibitions, their notorious press demonstrations, and the Beatles’ break-up—all authoritative, and much of it based on first-hand knowledge. The book also contains over 200 photographs, which accounts for its rather high price.—Gregory Feeley Jacob’s Ladder 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Even Cow Girls Get The Blues Tom Robbins, Bantam Books, $2.25 Thpadventures ofSissy Hankshaw, the nation’s champion hitchhiker, as she travels from Virginia to chic Manhattan to the Dakota Badlands, where FBI agents, cowgirls, and ecstatic whooping cranes explode in a deliciously drawn out climax.

Rob Swigart has picked up on the T. V. mentality and created a piece offiction suitable for those people not embarrassed to admit that they enjoy a good sitcom. In that sense LITTLE AMERICA is very contemporary. Not just for the fact that it is the last ten years in print, but technically the book has been crafted to meet the needs and tastes of the T. V. generation. The book is composed of short vignettes, two, three or four page doses of description that can be absorbed, the book discarded and then picked up again, as if breathing space had been intentionally interjected to let the mind wander, rehash the day’s activities, and then return to the action, the station-break completed. LITTLE AMERICA is about frustration. But Swigart is not cynical. His story is descriptive. And filled with irony. Mr. Swigart’s protagonist is looking for a place to relax and enjoy his life without outside intrusion and still be in the middle of all things. Orville Hollinday will find this place after he has sorted out all the experiences that every young man must go through as the product of white upper middle class America: college, summer jobs, the pride of a mother who truly cares and a father with only time enough to care between business lunches and chasing young foxes. Swigart satirizes as many different subjects as he can fit. There are the Golden Arches surreptitiously bludgeoned. The war in Vietnam attached to the Russians. Jural corruption. The dissatisfaction with marriage. Blackmail. Sexual fantasy. Swigart has chosen to spoof everything. Nothing is left untouched. Even our sacred Ivy League traditions have been administered a beating. Rob Swigart’s LITTLE AMERICA is an interesting piece of writing. Something out of the ordinary, and something very entertaining. If you choose to read it, read it with open eyes. . Popular Library $1.95 Matte $3.95 These days, I am highly suspicious of any new book which claims on its cover to resemble Tolkien’s LORD OF THE RINGS. I think of it as a cheap trick which publishers use to try to sell more books by conning their customers, and so it is. I am also suspicious of cute talking animal books; aha, I think to myself, they’re trying to cash in on the WATERSHIP DOWN success. But when I finally convinced myself to read Niel Hancock’s GREYFAX GRIMWALD in spite of the packaging, I found myself pleasantly surprised. It’s true that Hancock is somewhat derivative of Tolkien. The character of GREYFAX GRIMWALD, wizard and member of the CIRCLE OF LIGHT, a brotherhood of wizards, bears a fkmilial resemblance to that of Gandalf the Grey. Well, what of that? The shaman character is an old, established Vaditional figure in fantasy tales, with a history reaching back to Merlin and Bleys in the Arthurian cycle. Hancock, like Tolkien, relates a great story of apocalyptic conflict between good and evil, not by concentrating on the main actors in the conflict, but by telling about Dwarf Broco, Bear, and Otter, humble folk with a large part to play, much like Frodo and his companions. Again, having pointed out the resemblance. I will dismiss it. This, too, is an old tradition with fantasy storytellers. What is important about a story of this kind is not the elements which go to make it up, elements which come from a common stock of folklore and faery-tale, but the use to which the storyteller puts t|hese elements. Hancock puts these common elements to very good use. 1 found myself drawn into the story about seven pages in, when Otter enters the scene, and remained cheerfully engrossed for some hours. Hancock is a simpler writer than Tolkien; although GREYFAX GRIMWALD is adult fantasy, it would be comprehensible to a younger audience as well. GREYFAX GRIMWALD is the first of four parts. I will be awaiting the remaining three with some eagerness, and I suggest you do the same.—Kathi Schaefer In 1972 Tom Robbins’ first novel. ANOTHER ROADSIDE ATTRACTION, appeared in paperback and quickly became a counter-cultural phenomenon, becoming for the laid-back, unagitated American youth of the Seventies what ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO’S NEST and CATCH-22 had been for their more engagt compatriots of the previous decade. Robbins’ second novel, EVEN COWGIRLS GET THE BLUES, was published last year, to extraordinary critical and popular acclaim. An inexpensive paperback edition has just appeared, and promises easily to surpass its predecessor. Early sales figures, especially on college campuses, have already shot through the ceiling. EVEN COWGIRLS GET THE BLUES is the story of a young woman. Sissy Hackshaw/and her gifted and extraordinarily oversized thumbs, which she uses to escape her impoverished background and go roaming across the face ot America. From this Robbins has spun out a broadly comic and discursive tale about America today generously laced with editorial confidences, mellow cosmic discourses, and a rambling, care-free style. The novel’s most distinctive feature is its tone, a pervasive sense of good will and easy-going humor in which all other elements of the book, plot, characters, theme, are suspended like chunks in a broth. His all-inclusive style, however, sometimes leads to an embarrassing overabundance ofriches; the gentle reader must wade through three epigraphs, an Author s Note, a Preface of sorts and a “Welcome” sketch before reaching the first word of Chapter One, which is surely, even by the novel’s own take-it-easy standards, a superfluity of exfoliation. Bobbin's casual confident style is often fine except when allowed to slide, amidst a general lack of restraint, into glibness and affectation. One should not attempt to make every metaphor a stylistic breakthrough, every phrase a triumph of playful irreverence, or one ends up with a book full of sentences like, “Middays, the city felt like the inside of a napalmed watermelon.” EVEN COWGIRLS GET THE BLUES will be seen sticking out of a lot of jean pockets this summer, which is probably an event to be welcomed. I recommend this book for its humor and originality, but regret that most recent American “Whole Earth” literature (as one critic put it) displays such lack of discipline and precision —Gregory 6 3 Feeley Qfirmrt Houghton Mifflin pElk TH6 OUTRAGEOUS NeWD€STS0i£R H/THC AUTHOR OF ANOTHCR ROAD5IDC ATTRACTION €MEN COWGIRLS G€TTH€ DLU€S AMONG.

Astra and Flondrix, - Seamus Cullen, Pantheon Books, $3.95 Seamus Cullen’s Astra and Flondrix is not quite to my taste, but there are those who will enjoy it. It is a fantasy novel, full of elves and dwarfs and wizards and demons and conflicts between good and evil. It also contains a good deal more sex, elvish bifurcated sex. dwarvish corkscrew sex, mouse sex, human sex, deer sex, witch sex, demon sex; at all events, a good deal more sex than I really wanted to read about. Sometimes I thought the sex was getting in the way of the story. On the other hand, Astra and Flondrix is an interesting book, and should certainly entertain those who enjoy fantasy sex.—K. S. Science Fiction of the 30’s, Damon Knight, ed. Avon, $4.95 , Another anthology showing the increase of interest in the early pulp magazines of the days before science fiction was respectable, Damon Knight's Science Fiction of the 30's contains a pretty good selection of old wave stories, complete with the original illustrations to lend an air of the pulp format. The modem reader had best be warned that the characterization in a lot of these old stories may seem a bit wooden and stereotyped, and the plots slightly worn and hackneyed, but on the whole the stories wear theiryears well, and it must be remembered that what seems cliched today was original forty years ago.

Before his conversion, Colson says, he served his country with “burning idealism”, and afterwards he served Christ in the same way. Throughout the book is the assumption that a certain purified mental state will produce virtue. The publishers quote Gary Wills on the cover page: “Colson is the truest American Christian since Andrew Carnegie”. Perhaps. The book makes fascinating reading, at any rate, and it is especially fascinating between the lines. —Richard Vigilante The Hite Report Shere Hite Dell $2.75 In the fifties, Kinsey published his famous “sex reports’’. The sixties witnessed the sexual revolution which was analyzed in depth by the sexologists. Masters & Johnson, Now in the midst of the seventies, Shere Hite has attempted to get at the roots of female sexuality. Hite sent out a questionnaire to women nationally, from all walks of life, and of all different ages. Her probing questions were responded to with surprising candor, thus indicating that women wanted to talk about themselves in sexual terms. Hite has condensed her responses and compiled all the data into a very comprehensive report. THE HITE REPORT is not a dirty book nor is it a book that one sits down to read from’cover to cover. The report is a highly technical work that reads like an encyclopedia but is naturally more specialized. Hite has dispelled many of the female’s guilt-feelings about expressing what she wants both sexually and emotionally. Shere Hite has provided the American woman with a new cultural interpretation of female sexuality We applaud you!—Ellen Josem. All Her Children Dan Wakefield Avon “From the people who bring you National Lampoon” it says on the cover, and on the inside, you discover that the magazine Heavy Metal is the American edition of Metal Hurlant a curious science fiction underground comics French magazine. In the first two issues you’ll find reprints of a couple of things familiar to readers of underground mags: Richard Corben’s “Den," and Vaughn Bode’s “Sunpot,” though to the original printing of “Sunpot” in black and white has been added color. You’ll find translated (and some not entirely translated) tales from theFrench edition, some original material, and an excerpt from a soon-to-be-printed fantasy novel. Heavy Meta! is an idea whose time has come. It was about time that someone lifted the non-comics code artists from the obscurity and the poor distribution of the underground comics to a glossy high-quality production like this.—K.S. O Charles Colson 4) 1 1 AT • s For soap opera addicts and non-addicts alike, this book titled after the very popular daytime drama, ALL MY CHILDREN, is both ridiculous and fun. It is however, an extreme waste of time, as the author is primarily Concerned with relaying a story line which by now is largely outdatea. The book’s value rests solely upon its historical narrative. ALL HER CHILDREN presents an interesting study of the evolution of the American soap opera. Beginning with the popular radio soaps such as “Ma Perkins” the author then moves on to discuss the transfer of soaps to television and all the problems inherent in such a move. The book borders on the absurd when the author attempts to prove the sociological importance of soap operas in the seventies. Any attempt to attach such significance is ludicrous, for soap operas are intended as pure entertainment and possible scandal. I shall continue to watch the soaps and continue to think of them as ‘bunk’.—Ellen Josem �—r> THE JONES con’t. An Especially Tricky People G.B. Trudeau Holt, Rhinehart and Winston i • The dazzling bestseller that author Erica long “Fear of FI calls “ Q y Garry Trudeau’s latest Doonesbury book concerns Duke’s envoyship to China, Virginia Slade’s congressional campaign, Jerry Brown, Jimmy Carter, and other topical subjects. The cartoons, which appeared mostly in the spring of 1976, are among Trudeau’s best, displaying a slashing sardonic wit and a sensitivity to the nuances of modem political absurdities which is keener and richer than his previous blunt anti-Nixon polemics. Despite his occasional biases (e.g. his liberal’s condescension towards Jimmy Carter), Trudeau’s cartoons will probably provide a better account of the vagaries of the last campaign than THE MAKING OF A PRESIDENT 1976 or Barbara Walters—G.F.

Rubin To the Editor. Special Features h'ditor 1 am terribly appalled at the treatment that 1 and the UUAB Music Committee have received this by The Spectrum musTc staff. As chairman of the UUAB Music Committee this year I had hoped that the relationship between UUAB and The Spectrum would be as tight as it had been in previous years. However, d"e to some malicious Statements early in the year by a staff writer, an animosity began between the two organizations, a only to peak with the staff’s latest caper complete black-out of information on one of the most important artists to perform on this campus in years Flora Purim. On Friday, May 6th, I was promised by a The Spectrum music staff writer who I have worked with, that a nice preview article would go into the paper on the Wednesday before the show. Lo and behold on Wednesday, the 11th, the last date for The Spectrum the article was “mysteriously deleted.” Now, I will not place the blame on anyone, but after a series of promises and a similar incident before tlje Dave Mason concert, I feel some sort of explanation is deserved. Please, music staff if you don’t like us, say so. But please don’t promise things and then not deliver! Two hundred and fifty deadlines later, most things are still the same. There are still 70 characters to the line, each line is still triple space, and page two is still called add one. Students who sit around and study annoy me. Unless you’re taking Organic Chemistry, Physics, Calculus 142, Genocide, and Anatomy while holding down a •full-time job, there is no reason not to get involved in something besides classes. In fact, if you don’t, you’re throwing away the most important part of your college education. Really now is the couple of tenths of points on the cum worth the satisfaction and experience gained from working on The Spectrum or CAC, or by playing varsity soccer? I say definitely not. For me, coming to The Spectrum was an obvious move,' I had written in high school, and I wasn’t about to make it on any varsity team even at this school. What’s more, our high school paper had earned itself a reputation as being almost revolutionary, and the satisfaction of being associated with it was high. That same feeling of satisfaction has remained in college. I am not an emotional person. Ever since I learned not to throw temper tantrums when my father beat me regularly at casino 13 years ago, I don’t get worked up over too many things. So, I won’t cry when I ease my car onto the Thruway for the final time in a few weeks. But I will not rejoice either. Somehow, 1 can’t get maudlin about leaving Norton Hall, but the memories of the times and the people are still there. Some once told me about the rubber band theory. He said that nobody ever finds it hard to leave Buffalo. Heaven knows, the weather can’t rival Florida. (Hell, it can’t even rival New York.) The city is like a rundown national historical site, and the school can’t decide whether its expanding or contracting. Yet, as much as people think their deities that they’re finally out, sooner or later everyone comes back. There is an incredible security at this school. The campus may seem big to a freshman, and in reality it probably is, yet the tightness of quarters " — - Len Chodosh, Chairman i'JUAB Music Committee The Chinese constituency To the Editor: As a former vice president of the Chinese Student Association (4975-1976), I would like to make a remark on “Mr. Tang replies listed groups of In his letter, he stated; .. “ . . . which, to the best of my knowledge, a great majority of the constituency has to date achieved to such a high level of understanding of the international affairs that in fact surmounts the level of recent development of the US-China relations. It therefore merely reflected an advanced understanding of such a situation on behalf of the above said constituents.” As one knows, the Chinese Student Association (one of the “listed groups”) is composed of people from various places, like Taiwan (where 1 come from), Hong Kong, New York City, Malaysia (where Mr. Tang comes from), etc. Many different views on international, political issues exist. Some are gives the school an incredible intimacy, something that is missed when people leave. I know I’ll be back. The story does not end here. I want to know how this school moves northward, and whether football takes the school by storm (what an apt word that is), and whether The Spectrum is worse, the same, or better than it has been this year. One thing is for sure, though. After 1 finish this story, and leave this office for the last time, there will be incredibly large void in my daily existence which will be impossible to fill. The tri-weekly routine of putting this thing together is habit forming; the people are the same, the issues are the same, the problems are the same, and even the jokes are the same. I feel justified in breaking with any professionalism that at all remains in this column by saying that this year’s editorial board and staff is a top notch bunch of people. Criticism is another word for editing, and after all the editing that has gone on here the good feelings which permeate this office represent quite an achievement in human relations. And, since we’re from devitating professionalism, let me say “Fredda'Cohen, David Shapiro, and Gary ‘Radar* Wolfe” (These people, more than anyone else have begged for recognition somewhere in The Spectrum and now they have it), to quote one of America’s most “Finally, legendary pseudo-journalists, Irv Weinstein, noe more attempt at humor is forthcoming, dedicated to Barry Pendletone, the author of a somewhat uncomplimentary letter to the editor concering this piece. Not long from now, a Gary Debit will graduate with a degree in accounting. His parents will take him out to dinner at the Cloisters. Hy will order steak, and his parents will order lobster tails. When the food arrives, Gary will ask his parents if it tastes good. Mr. Debit will say it does and will ask Gary the same question. “I don’t know,” Gary will replay. “What do you mean you don’t know?” will say Mrs. Debit. How can you know know whether or not you like your steak? And Gary will say, “Because there’s no accounting for taste ” opposite to Mr. Tang’s. Therefore, unless officially appointed, which is not true in this case, it is dangerous, misleading, irresponsible and sometimes not ethical to speak “on behalf of the above said constituents.” GSEU deplores music cuts Shao-tang Sun students stand together and demand their right to quality education that will have some meaning and We of the Graduate Student Employee’s Union practical value.

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief. offree speech To the Editor We tend to believe that in the United States in general, and in an institute of higher education in particular, individuals have spent years of their lives trying to become rational and possibly to come to believe and respect the principles of basic democratic rights such as freedom of speech. What is happening on this campus is a negation of that principle, i.e. the continuous behavior of some individuals or groups who have made it a habit to tear down the Arab Student’s Bulletin Board on the first floor of Squire Hall. This is the same bulletin board which hosts information of Israel. We are dismayed and angry at such practices because while we tend to believe in one thing, what we see is a total negation of that belief. This is the belief in the Freedom of Fixpression. It disturbs us because it brings back memories of certain ugly fascist practices. Therefore, we would like to alert the University Community to these practices. Our reason for this is that our belief is still strong that the truth cannot be suppressed in such a destructive manner, but that rather it is up to the individual reader to decide what is right and what is wrong. Many students on this campus get bombarded everyday with many posters and leaflets reflecting different and broader points of views. These students are capable of recognizing this sort of behavior. But, this is 1977, and mankind has sacrificed much in order to preserve certain human rights. - Alt El-Zalan Budr El-Arfan � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The afternoon’s theme offered few clues as to which ' way and Wednesday’s Thursday’s voting would go, but instead centered on the failure in student government in recent years, as students, SA explained by President Dennis Delia, and longtime critic Levinson. All participants seemed to agree that something was amiss in the student government, but were divided over the question of — — whether Levinson’s proposal was a workable alternative. In Ketter’s hands The Student Wide Judiciary cleared the way for the voting by ruling against SA’s motion for a permanent injunction last week. SA leaders claimed that although Levinson apparently complied with the Constitution in garnering the signatures of one tenth of the undergraduate population for the petition, the referendum • was “clearly illegal” in not complying with student fee activity guidelines. They also contended that because a course does not yet exist, it provides no apparatus for the business of conducting government. The petition to reform student government into credit granting courses was the first petition submitted under the present SA Constitution. It would prohibit students in the course from receiving money for their work. SA officers and members of other student are organizations currently paid stipends. Delia acknowledged there were problems in SA, such as wasted money. He quickly offered the referendum as an example. SA sources have put the price of the referendum at $700. Delia repeated his contention that students would be voting for something which did not exist, and that the idea, if successful, would put the business of the Revisions in TAP guidelines come under protest by GLS Group Legal Services (GLS) has filed a suit in State Supreme Court charging that recent revisions in the Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) guidelines discriminate against college age students that file as independents. The suit, filed on behalf of the Student Association of the State the University (SASU) and Student Association (SA) of this University, accuses the New York State Higher Education Services Corporation, the administrator of TAP, of purposely excluding college age adults from receiving assistance as independents. It also charges that new guidelines directly conflict with a recent lowering of the State’s legal “age of majority” from 21 to 18. That revision means that parents are no longe r responsible for their children after they reach 18.

New committee will handle student gripes A new committee, to handle complaints anout University Police, housing, and landlords is being formed by the Student Affairs Task Force and Director of Student Affairs Paul Glauber. According to Glauber, any student with a complaint can pickup a special form requiring the names of all parties involved, the time and date, and the specific charge. He emphasized that “all forms received in will be taken in strict confidence.” The form will be processed in several phases. In its first step, the charge will be brought before the Review Committee, which is comprised of Task Force members. The appropriate action to be taken will then be determined. If the complaint is considered valid, it will be sent to the Group Legal Services Director who will consult their lawyer, Richard Lippes, on possible further action. If deemed necessary, court action will be initiated. A response The new ruling leaves students under 22 who are erpancipated from their parents, either by chance or by choice, ineligible for TAP awards. The same students will still be eligible for federally Basic Educational funded (BEOG) Opportunity Grants which use the old TAP guidelines. They state that an independent student must not have been claimed on his parents tax returns for two years, live at home, and/or have received over $200 from them. The Spectrum learned of the suit in advance of a scheduled press conference later this week. A spokesman for the New York Higher Education Services Corp. declined to comment on possible action. Director of Financial Air Joseh Stillwell was asked if the stricter guidelines were a response to a Controversial Glauber pointed out that if there is a question of University policy involved, the, committe will contact the party that has been charged for WbB& Exceptions exist Stillwell saw the tighter controls as a legitimate response to the increase. He said it was well-known, that many students independents file as while receiving considerable aid from their parents.

Nevertheless, he acknowledged that there are students who are clarification. to extenuating due circumstances,” Stillwell observed. “They ask us ‘Should I go independent?’ Well, it’s not a question of should I or shouldn’t I, but of need.” felt the new Brownstein totally were guidelines unconstitutional based on their conflict with the “age of majority” in New York State. He also felt confident about winning the court test. Director of University Police Lee Griffin said, “1 would rather see it operate as an advisory board than as a review committee.” He expressed an interest in the idea as long as it did turn into a “witchhunt.” Director of Group Legal Services (GLS) David Brownstein said, “There’s been a movement every year with the‘ new S.A. Administration to check on security and the complaints about them. This year, however, there were a number of controversial issues directly involving them.” He added that the potential success or failure of the Review Committee is dependent on Glauber and his ability to,motivate people. Brownstein stressed he will give active consideration to any proposals deemed important enough to reach his office. On the question of housing and landlords, Brownstein said, “Legal services has traditionally been involved with landlord-tenant cases, not only off-campus, but with housing, too.” All a student must to do join the Task Force is attend two consecutive meetings. �Seabrook protesters decry jail conditions IS by Harold Fleisher Spectrum Staff Writer “Our spirits remained high throughout our ordeal,” explained one of the 1,414 nuclear energy protesters arrested at Seabrook New Hampshire after returning to Buffalo. Charles Salamone was arrested for his involvement in the occupation of the proposed $2 billion nuclear generating plant in Seabrook, New Hampshire. Salamone, who was one of fifteen people arrested from the Buffalo area, paid $100 bail to ensure his return home. The occupation, which took effect on Saturday, May 1, included an estimated 2,000 protesters. Under the supervision of the Clamshell Alliance, the protesters occupied a 40 acre piece of land within the Seabrook site allotted them by Governor Meldred Thompson. The protest continued overnight and at about 3 p.m. Sunday afternoon the Governor handed down a decision to begin arresting the protesters still found at the Seabrook site one half hour later. Freedom was granted to the people who left the construction site in the time allotted, and at 3; 30 p.m. state troopers and the National Guardsmen began arresting the peacefully awaiting demonstraters. The process took 14 hours, exactly 1,414 people were arrested and taken to Portsmouth. axVn —airto— ' Saturday, May 14th in the Fillmore Room, Squire Hall 9:00 p.m. In meat trucks Many people spent up to 17 hours inside run down meat trucks as well as military buses awaiting arraignmentAlthough Salamor e stated that police used “no excessive violence” during the arrests, he emphasized that “people weren’t advised of their rights.” Charged with criminal trespass, the demonstraters were served with 15 day jail sentences, with credit given for the time spent in armories throughout New Hampshire. Bail was set at $100, while New Hampshire residents minors, and unhealthy participants were released M on their own personal recognizance. After this decision was made, Clamshell lawyers attempted to have everyone freed under the same stipulation, but this was denied. ONLY TICKETS Upon entering the armory at Somersoworth, where all Buffalonian protesters were kept, the 247 people were cramped into a 70 by 100 foot area where they were forced to sleep On the floor for the night. This was to be the case until Thursday, when cots were distributed.

Even though there was a shower room available, the prisoners weren’t allowed to shower until Thursday when soap and H U $2.50 for students AVAILABLE || towels were distributed. Salamone accused the national guard with enfringement of rights when phone calls were prohibited the first day. When the calls were at U.B. Ticket Office, Squire Hall at your UNIVERSITY granted the next day, they were monitored by guardsmen threatening to disconnect if conditions and a number of people in the armory were bookstore mentioned. In summary, he said, that the National Guardsmen were very friendly, as well as occasionally sympathetic, to the cuse. Arrests While commenting on .Governor Thompson’s decision, Salamone said, “He couldn’t have though that we’d all stay.” He pointed, out that state officials did not have the capacity to arrest that many people. As of last Wednesday, the total cost to New Hampshire was $1 million and increasing by $50,000 a day. As it stands now, there are approximately 630 prisoners still being held for their upcoming trials, some scheduled to begin today and some scheduled for as late as the end of August. Salamone emphasized that the major fear that state would charge the organizers of the occupation with conspiracy. Salamone stressed the importance of protesting nuclear power plants. He rebutted claims by nuclear power advocates that there have been no accidents, and stated that most people are ignorant of the problems in disposing of nuclear wastes, and in disposing of nuclear reactors themselves. The Seabrook project, which has been stunted for the time being, is far from completion. The Public Service Commission of New Hampshire must first overcome two major problems: the Environmental Protection Agency hasn’t given the project a cooling permit due to inefficient planned cooling facilities and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has not yet given the project final approval. Salamone has high hopes for this protest to have a definite effect on the final decision for the project. The important thing is to have another occupation at Seabrook and protest Other such projects throughout the country. • There IS a & HURS difference!!!

The Work Study students who fall into the inexperienced category are the “victims” of the major inconsistencies, according to Gott; they comprise Group B, which includes new graduate and law students who are inexperienced in the Work Study Program and receive $2.50 and $2.65 an hour respectively; $800) who new undergraduates with high Work Study awards ($700 have no previous work study experience and who begin at $2.50 an hour; and new undergraduate students with low work study awards $500) with no previous work study experience, who begin at ($300 $2.30 an hour. The unprecedented criterion' of award size used in determining the hourly wage rate has caused the problem. The size of the Work Study award is determined in individual financial aid packages, and individual need is not considered, although Carter said he takes these facts into consideration. Students have the opportunity to determine the amount of hours they work, and, therefore, two equally needy students may have totally different work study awards, although they may have the same initial grant from financial aid. One student may prefer to take out more loans instead of work study, and another may prefer to work off the entire sum. The question here, is, why should there be an irregularity in determining wage rates on the basis of award size? Gott and Ribbler brought this any many other points to the attention of the committee^ — Vilates guidelines Larry Kibbler’s personal case is an unusual but pertinent one. Ribbler began working in the work study program with an award of $500 he was paid $2.30 an hour while students doing the same job were getting $2.50 an hour, in direct violation to the guidelines set forth in the Work Study Manual.

American technology, despite its penchant for the complex, the unfathomable, sometimes produces a thing surprisingly simple, yet remarkably functional. -One such device, invented 25 years ago, was the auto air bag, a safety device found to prevent death and serious injury in even the most severe head-on and front-angle collisions. A friend of mine lost his wife a short while back. He’s a widower at 26. A young age to watch your life crumble before you. Patrick sits in solitude quite often now. Lonely, though hardly friendless, he thinks hard about how it was when Rita was there, when they would talk, joke, eat, play, read, think, love. His eyes, downcast, seem to scan the floor for answers. He’s never told me just how much he misses here, but the pain is terrible. It shows, dim but visible, through an imperfect veil of normalcy. Rita died suddenly, in an auto accident, on a cold slippery afternoon at four o’clock, while driving home from just another day at work. She was, they say, only going about 30 m.p.h. Her car met head-on with a pickup truck also going about 30 m.p.h. It had slid into the wrong lane. . Though she usually wore a seatbelt, she sometimes forgot, as she had this day. Unrestrained, she was hurled forward, and the force with which she struck the steering wheel opened her head from her hairline to the back of her neck.

A well-built machine, according to consumer magazines, but small, dangerous, unprotective in a crash. Rita and Pat had pooled their resources to buy it. It was a big investment, for this bright dazzling thing that gave much pleasure to the eye and great gas mileage to boot. But it was small and light, as a huge number of the new fleet is. They though it would make their contented lives a little happier, a little more confortable, and more economical in the long run, Pat, I fear, will be troubled by this disastrous rationale for the rest of his life.

For auto workers, there will be new jobs manufacturing and installing the units; for the car owner, in addition to more protection, there will be reductions in insurance costs (Allstate is already offering a 30 percent reduction) which means that air bags will pay for themselves over time; for insurance companies, there will be again made to issue an air bag statute for 1974, they were killed by the Nixon White House, under heavey pressure from the auto industry.

I never saw the air bag inflate or deflate, nor did I feel or hear it, it was so fast. My glasses were not broken. I felt stunned and amazed to be uninjured and alive.” Since this very harrowing experience, Arms has been trying to get air bags for his new car, but Originally a must can’t.

According to Gott, the inconsistencies in the work study program are obvious since all work study students fall into one of two groups: the first, Group A, concerns experienced Work Study Students and includes graduates that began working at the graduate level for $2.50 an hour, and return for s subsequent year at the same rate of pay; undergraduates that are already receiving $2.50 an hour and continue to receive $2.50 an hour after they return; and undergraduates working for $2.50 an hour that graduate and continue to get $2.50 an hour. though Rita had no seatbelt on, WANT?

The problems arose over the apparently inconsistent criteria used in determining a student’s hourly wage evident in some cases where two students the same job received different pay, inspite of the existence of equal pay regulations mandated by the College Work Study Manual. Several students have joined together contesting the validity of varying wage rates for student, who do the same type of job. They have met several times with Director of University Placement and Career Guidance, Wes Carter, in order to find out what guidelines exist concerning the determinants of hourly wage rates.

Page three �David Frye: a jokerand evoker For the next few minutes, the audience viewe'd a Nixon collage film while listening to Nixon’s (Frye’s) rendition of “My Way.” Several choice moments resulted when the words and pictures were juxtaposed. Politics was the next order of business as Rockefeller drawled, “I’ve got enough oil to heat the whole state but since you knocked me out; of office you can freeze your asses off.” Humphrey on Carter: “He can’t think without his teeth. The man is a tooth.” On came the Tooth sparkling “Son of a bitch, I’m the President!” He spoke first on overpopulation, stating, “We have to find humane wUysto increase the suicide rate, like further depressing an already unhappy person. If a student thinks he’s going to get a B, flunk him instead.” , he remained ever innocent about Watergate: “I was in by Denise Stumpo Staff Writer Spectrum “Well, I’m happy to be here in the gym,” said David Frye, and they laughed. Of course, it was all in the way he said it. The aroma of rubber mats was in the air Saturday night as Frye, the famed Nixon-impressionist, spoke and joked at Clark Hall. Btooklyn born, Frye began with his beginning: “My father asked my mother, ‘You want to go to bed or what?’ She said, ‘What?’” Attack is Frye’s forte, and television a prime target. “Do you know where your children are?” asks the public service announcement. “Yeah, buddy, I just want to know where the hell my wife is,” Frye replies. “And have you seen the one about VD; You asked for ' it, you’ve got it.” Next Frye cut “candid” commercials to ribbons. “Just once I would love to hear some guy say, ‘I think it sucks. I think you suck.’” Trilling sweetly now; “1 used Feminique this morning and my breath still feels fresh.” This evoked considerable laughter from the crowd of 500-odd people. According to one student, Frye uses the college circuit as testing ground for his new material. Many students did not appreciate the fact that he used notes and kept glancing at them during his act. “It’s unprofessional,” said one. The impressions began with “that guy who don’t get no respect.” Then fast-talk Rod Steiger came on and introduced Marlon Brando as The Godfather. Frye used no words but achieved the effect with sloping shoulders, weary facial expression, nodding, and hand gestures, to which the audience responded. Sighing, rasping: “I told Nixon if he had only come to see me . .” And to a would-be photographer; “No pictures, please or I’ll shut your ass out.” T)n came the one they had all been waiting for, arms up, fingers out into the famous “V” for victory symbol. “I never OK’d hush money, just shut up money,” he alleged rapidly. Referring to David Frost as “that limey bastard,” — - . ... front of me, f couldn’t see what was going on behind me.” His neck jerked and the jowls were out in full bloom. We learned that David Eisenhower swallowed the tapes like a good son-in-law. “1 told him they were round silver cookies and he said, ‘Oh. Goody!’” On a humble note, he praised Jimmy Carter as a “fine farmer. If he wants to stick his nose up a cow’s ass, it’s all right with me.” And, always the. gentleman, “Kind” Richard defended the honor of his former Secretary, Rosemary Woods. “She was a virgin at 44; how could she know anything about breaking and entering?” brought some laughs and some groans from the audience. , Blaring from the stage came the nasal twang of Howard Cosell, here for his very first interview. “I’m inside my mother’s womb. It’s hot and gooey in here and 180 degrees farenheit.” Here comes Sammy Sperm, “looking for a receiver.” Tongue action revealed Jimmy Cagney: “It’s not easy to have a Jew-boy look like me.” Jack Nicholson came with a distorted lip and Dustin Hoffman oinked. Then there was Telly, yelling, “YOU SON-OF-A-BITCH! I hate to talk to you like this, Mom, but it’s true.” Throwing back his head and arm in exact replication of Maude, Frye dropped his voice to a stage whisper; “I know, Walter, you’re making it with that chick Mary Hartman,” whereupon Mary appeared, wheezing abut a broken toaster. Pardons and prune juice “There was never a planned pardon, you know,” Carter revealed. “One day Nixon bumped into Ford and said ‘pardon me,’ so he did.”' To solve the energy problem, Carter announced that he would b riding a donkey to work, adding, “Earl Butz is the perfect ass for that.” After receiving a positive response from the audience, Frye quickly marked his notes. George Wallace was received well. “I’m no bigot,” he boasted. “Any Jew is as good as any Puerto, Rican . . . I’ll tell you what black power is prune juice I believe in free enterprise let the poor steal for themselves.” . Applause brought Frye back for an encore, during which he abruptly turned serious, stating “It’s only in a — ... — country like this that I spell relief Frye returned to commercials, naming Morris as the first gay cat and denouncing Anita Bryant for making a career out of sucking oranges state-to i-state. “What about that Spanish actor?” he asks, “You know, the one who loves his Cordoba?” ‘It gives me everything I want. It holds 120 feet of marijuana. There’s so much pot in the truck it flies.’” Then there is the one that goes, “How do you spell relief? “Just once I’d love to hear them say, ‘F-U-C-K.’” we do now?” . . .

The first claim is dubious, the latter two are blatantly false.

Regardless, those who see human life as the most precious of resources will no doubt vastly outnumber those who do not. Also, the “right to die” argument overlooks one important fact.

Secondly, though, a belt-airbab combination is the most effective, — — tests have proven that air bags alone are more effective than belts alone. In addition, seatbelts are inadequate simply because people don’t wear them. Less than 30 percent of motorists now wear seatbelts, and experts say that this figure will never rise above 40 percent without a law to enforce usage. Distressingly, under 7 percent of all children riding in cards are ever buckled up. Lastly, air bags, experts claim, have been more than adequately trested. Twelve thousand air-bag equipped cars have driven over 250 million miles. Invovled in over 100 crashes, the units have never failed to deploy, and have functioned as they were designed to averting death, injury. hardship. When statistics are reviewed and arguments weighed, it is impossible with rationality as the guide, to deny the utility and the need for airbags. With gas prices rising and the trend toward smaller, lighter cars increasing each year, more and more death and injury will inveitably be experienced if bold action isn’t taken soon. What we need is a political decision which serves the masses rather than self-minded special interest groups. Perhaps the political climate is right for just a decision.

The show lasted one hour, ending at 9 p.m. and people generally felt it should have been a little longer. As one Main Street resident put it, “Look how early it is.

Rubin Special Features Editor For each of the last three the Kentucky Derby has been threatened, by rain and clouds on Derby morning, but in every year, by some seemingly magical meands, when the horses have walked out onto the track and when the band has broken into strains of “My Old Kentucky Home,” the sky has been clear and the track fast. But, unlike last year, when the favored Honest Pleasure disappointed his tons of thousands of backers who had made him a 2-5 favorite, this year’s odds-on choice, Seattle Slew lived up to his affluent years, pre-Derby praise by dramatically taking the 103rd Kentucky Derby by \V* lengths over Run Dusty Run. Seattle Slew was purchased for only $17,000, a bargain basement price by today’s standards. Yet, the brown and bay three-year-old has yet to lose a race in seven attempts, and has the potential to make horse racing history. With the exception of the 1964 Derby winner Majestic Prince, Seattle Slew is the only horse to ever successfully defend an undefeated record in the Kentucky Derby. Jamjestic Prince losj to Arts and Letters that year ih the Preakness and never raced again. If Seattle Slew wins the Preakness in two weeks, and takes the Belmont in June, he will be the first horse to win the triple crown without ever having lost a race, putting him on a par with horses like Secretariat, Citation, and Man O War.

According to Gott, this directly violates the guildelines which state that students who do the same task should be paid the same wage. Rick Foxton, a former student at this University, confronted similar problems last semester in his dealings with Carter. Foxton was unsuccessful in his pursuits to increase his wage to the amount his fellow employees and transferred to SUNY at Albany. There, he received the $2.50 wage for which he clammored. Who gives raises? Another discrepancy involved the distribution of raises. The work study manual states that students should get raises for doing well on the job. This raise, according to the guidelines in the Work Study Manual, can be initiated by student supervisors. However, many, if not all, supervisors are unaware of their power to do so, Gott charged. Carter, in an interview with The Spectrum, last December said, “I’ve probably been remiss,” when asked why the supervisors were kept in the dark about the raise policies. Carter promised he would send a notice in, January to all supervisors informing them of their capacity to initiate raises. However, according to Gott, none of the supervisors at any of the libraries (a major souce of work for the Work Study Students), have been notified. Carter also said last December that the entire salary procedure was being changed, and a “new scale” would be implemented very soon. Gott said Carter’s reply to her questions on that subject were answered by a simple, “Well, I knew you’d be here (at the Grievance Committee meeting) today.” Carter also indicated that he was going to see if he could raise graduate student wage rates to $3.00 an hour. ‘TheSlew’. capitalist’s dream —continued from page 5.. $1.50 a shot, can be purchased any of several bars.

Yet, there are ways to fight back. One such attempt was pulled off in 1964 by a handful of University of Buffalo students when they convinced the Buffalo press, the Statler Hilton Hotel and other organizations in the area that they were about to be visited by the Thallus of Marcantia, who was in fact, nothing more than a UB student in Arab clothing. The plans for the hoax were drawn up early in December of 1964. There had been a very difficult freshman test and many freshmen were still uptight after it was over. So one day they came up with the idea for the hoax, using terminology from their bio class (a thallus is a stalk and Marchantia is a liverwort, which is a moss-type plant). They figured laymen would never catch on. After the plans were made, someone reserved a floor in the Statler Hilton while someone contacted the local newspapers. Another student called the Statler Hilton to “re-confirm the Thallus” reservation of an entire floor in the hotel. The Statler claimed no knowledge of the reservation, but when the caller threatened an “international incident” the hotel acted. ,On December 15, 1964 the following item appeared in the local papers; RULER DUE HERE FROM MARCHANTD “Aveilugd Urubod, the thallus or ruling monarch of the principality of Marchantia, will arrive at Greater Buffalo Airport at 1:48 tomorrow afternoon on a two day visit to the Buffalo area. The thallus of this principlaity, about the size of Buffalo in the South Western section of the Arabian Peninsula, will be here until Friday morning when he leaves for Chicago. He is on a State Department tOUr of this country.” In the meantime, students planned a demonstration for his arrival. When the announcements actually appeared in print, news of the demonstration spread around campus. The next day, a crowd of students gathered at Buffalo International Airport. The estimate of the crowd varied from 700 to “more than 2000,” according to the National Observer. “The demonstrators were amiable, goodnatured, otderly, and remarkably well disciplined,” said Vice President for Student Affairs Richard Siggelkow. Many students had signs which said things like, “Arab Go Home,” “Thallus, return to your Palace” and “No Malice Toward Thallus.” •BREAK f L— J\I •S J BETWEEN CLASSES? RELAX AT THE BROWSING LIBRARY OR MUSIC ROOM. They waited patiently for the thallus to arrive qn the 1:48 p.m. flight. Arthur A. Schein, a freshman and leading purveyor of the hoax, had flown to New York-so he could return to Buffalo as the dignitary. While Schein was on his return flight, a bugler appeared at the airport. After sounding a few notes for attention, he announced such things as “The thallus requests that you sit” or “the thallus asks you to rise.” At this point, our separate faction of students, who also knew what was going on, complied with the instructions. Then at 1:50, Schein, disguised as the thallus, arrived. He was dressed in a white trench coat, sun glasses and a “piece of linen around his head.” The friendly part of the crowd greeted his arrivaL But all of a sudden, a demonstrator sounded “Charge” and the groups of students engaged in a pseudo-riot. The police, misunderstanding the situation (since they did not know it was a hoax) went to help the thallus. The police offered him protection and Schein foolishly accepted it. Instead of being driven to his hotel room, Schein was taken to the police where he soon disclosed his real identity and was booked on charges of disorderly conduct. On January 18, 1965, Schein was convicted in Cheektowaga District Court for disorderly conduct in “causing a crowd to collect,” which is a misdemeanor. He was fined $50. The student body made full restitution for damages in a voluntary drive to cover damages estimated by airport officials. Varied reactions Reactions to the “hoax” varied. Some saw it as “good fun and a different way of relieving the pressure of finals.” Others thought it was an “irresponsible act and remarkably immature for supposedly intelligent college students.” But perhaps one of the most surprising aspects of the whole incident was the amount of anti-student media coverage it received. As Siggelkow explained, “Possibly to cover their embarrassment over the hoax, the news media were in no mood to check out the facts or verify all of the statements immediately forthcoming from the angry airport spokesmen. A much more unfavorable report of student behavior than the situation warranted was to result from ensuing and distorted news coverage.” On December 18, 1964, the Courier ran an editorial titled, “Reprehensible Acts of UB Students.” It said, “The irresponsible, outrageous Express conduct of an estimated 1000 University of Buffalo students at the Buffalo Internationa] Airport certainly gives one cause to wonder whether there aren’t a lot of young people in college who have no business being there. Those who participated in the senseless demonstration have given pretty substantial proof that they are intellectually immature and have failed to absorb the basic elements of education taught in elementary schools.” Rising revolt on campus The editorial called for the Student Court to “sift all of the evidence connected with the incident and put blame where it properly belonged.” It concluded with, “We cannot help but believe that the imposition of adequate penalties would be publicly applauded. This treatment would aid greatly in assisting irresponsible students to learn a lesson they apparently have missed somewhere between second and third grade.” The story was carried on the Associated Press wires and reached both coasts (with all the mistakes and misleading facts still in it). This led to other publications picking the, story. The National Observer incorporated the affair into its December 28 story on “The Anatomy of Rising Revolt on Campus,” referring not only to up “more than 2000 students who cut a of $2000 worth of damage” erroneously stating that most of students were unaware that the protest trail but the was a hoax. The Jamestown, New York Post Journal in a strong December 19 editorial called for the development of men and different college entrance tests that would reflect greater emphasis on “maturity and sound good sense.” It also referred to the hoax as one which “endangered the lives and limbs of many a traveler and damaged property extensively.” Biased coverage The now defunct New York Herald i Tribune printed a photo of the false story and treated the whole thing with a light touch which more accurately conveyed the essence of the incident. C.E. Smith now teaches the Biology course which spawned the hoax. He believes, “The incident was the sole evidence that there was some hope for the suppressed undergraduate group on campus” against anti-student organizations. Siggelkow, upset over the coverage said, “Incomplete reporting of minor events about students implies the possibility of carelessness in covering major ones, especially when they are as complicated as Berkeley. Is there a tendency to sahde news to the detriment of college students?” He continued, “Why is it, for example, that no photographer in his right mind would apparently think of taking a picture of a well dressed student in a picket line when he can capture for posterity a bearded and barefoot example? Such pictorial reporting may be news, but is it truly objective? Many misunderstandings about students and their activities could be avoided if the press properly checked out purported facts with appropriate resources. In turn, the institution itself must not attempt to cover up adverse news.” In fact. Smith has a film of Schein’s “capture” which he shows to his classes every semester. He explained, “Nobody has any interest at all in this plant called Marcantia. The film is the only way to get anyone to pay any attention to it,” Coffeehouse season ends by Paul Gartelmann Spectrum Staff Writer Allison’s: If silence is golden, Lew London, the celebrated “King of Western Swing,” wound up this semester’s series of coffeehouses last Friday and Saturday night in Squire Hall’s Tiffin Room. Picking and singing his way through a variety of old and new songs, he was backed up by Mark Josephs on rhythm guitar and harp and Ben Herman on string bass. Lew London’s technique of wooing an audience is to modestly play a superb guitar and mandolin (to mention just two instruments on which he is proficient) while energetically singing his heart out in a style highly reminiscent of Steve Goodman. Like other good performers, Lew’s act is two hundred per cent alive, one to which the audience loves to respond, his sense of humor, his ability to articulate on serious topics, and his knowledge of and interest in Buffalo has made him a campus favorite for several years. The backup band is another reason for much of his success. Though never stealing the show, Mark Josephs and Ben Herman fit very nicely into Lew’s selection of songs, always delivering a steady backing. Mark also plays one of the best harmonicas you’ll ever hear, as demonstrated in “Rodeo Rider.” Fat mouths The evening opened with “Roily Folly,” which immediately aroused the crowd’s laughter. Many of Lew’s other songs also did, like these lines of Mose You wouldn’t have a dime. Your mind is on vacation. And you mouth is working overtime It obviously referred to the audience, but they loved it anyway On a more serious side, London interspersed his comic selections with crisp and mellow instrumentals like “Sweet Georgeia Brown” and “Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” and singing softer tunes (Josephs’ “Old Movies”). The backup band is another reason for much of his success. Though If there can be one major criticism of Lew London’s performance, it is that his act in its entirety, including the song selection, nearly every introduction and even the order of his songs, has remained unchanged for the past several years. This is not to say that his act or his standard selections (“Lady Be Good,” “Bourgeois Blues”) is bad or boring. Rather, the opposite is true. But one would hope that after four years a musician with his talents could sneak a few new songs into his act. Lew ended Saturday night with his usual rendition of “One Day At a Time” with everyone joining in and feeling very uplifted about the whole evening. Even if it is the same concert, the mutual appreciation of audience and performer hasn’t changed much down through the years. Wednesday, 11 May 1977 . The Spectrum . Page seven �Trunk transport rip-off ad Editorial To the Editor: Turn it down As observers of this University's Student Association (SA), we agree with what we believe is a majority of undergraduates who feel something is desperately lacking in student government. However, we feel the idea of student government for course credit is not a satisfactory substitute, and urge you to vote against it Wednesday and Thursday. This is how we see it; student government here is deeply troubled especially in its lack of rapport with the average student. Even the leaders of this year's government admit this, in small ways. Michael Stephen Levinson makes many valid criticisms of the student government and the University. The petition signed by at least 1300 students is inadequate because it substitutes one reward academic credit for another, supposedly more corrupting one stipend money. Both ideas stipends and government for course credit assume that students who devote great amounts to time to serving other students should be reimbursed in part for their labor, as editors of The Spectrum and SA officers are. Reimbursement makes sense in attracting talented people and compensating students who otherswise would have to get "normal" part-time jobs. The government for course credit would ensure democracy by equally distributing four credits to all participants. This would require an open, unlimited registration. That means The Colleges and the Division of Undergraduate Education would grant what conservatively could be estimated at 1000 credit hours that is, four credits for two or three hundred students each semester. Maybe this type of pluralistic government is needed to end elitist student leaders. But it very definitely leaves a great deal of the reward for participation in student government, directly in the hands of the University administration. This weighs very heavily against it. However, we applaud the Student Wide Judiciary's decision to uphold the petition. The referendum rule in the SA Constitution was clearly met. We consider the cost — — — — — — In response to the letter in reference to “trunk rip-off’s” and the full page ad placed by my office in my name in the May 4th issue of The Spectrum , let me clearly state the following: It was clear to anyone who read the ad that the contract, written by the Group Legal Services Program Attorney, was being made available to all ,Who wished to use this service. Any person could pearly have seen that there were no implications as to "which services were “better” than others, or which ones were good at all. 1 asked our Attorney to prepare this contract so that every student in the University using a trunk transporter would be fully covered as to loss or damages. Unfortunately, in the past the various Student Governments have had many, many problems with the people who provide these services. Less than two (2) years ago, The Spectrum ran an article that showed that literally hundreds of trunks were either lost, left out in the rain, or damaged in other ways, in one shipment. The Contract provided by the Group Legal Services Program does not eliminate this, but gives the potentially involved a legal method for recovering any damages. The students who wrote the letter objecting to the ad came to speak with me and claimed to be fully insured by a private broker (his father). I requested a Xerox copy of the insurance policy so that 1 may have posted it in our office, for all to see that they were in fact insured. This was never done and as yet has still not been done. Needless to say, I question the existence of this policy at all. Whether the policy exists or not is in fact irrelevant. Our Contract protexts students from the possibility of “rip-ofif” when the transporters’ mouths are larger than the trunks themselves. As for their implication or question as to whether or not there is “something else behind” our contract and ad, let me say this, lam not, nor will I ever be, receiving any funding, promises, graft, pay-off's, kickbacks: or other unethical and financial profits from any transporters in return for the placement of this id. Misters Reider, Band and Spivack assert that this might be true, and that I might be forcing both helpless and honest business-minded individuals like themselves out of business so that 1 may personally collect graft from the larger transporters. An allegation like this need not be defended, yet the character of the people in question and the quality of the services that people of this character might provide might cause some students to reconsider using their services. This was not our intention. We feel that the virtually hundreds of students who have taken advantage of this contract offer have done so solely to insure and protect themselves. The transporters’ major complaint about our contract was that it was not worth the hundreds of dollars that they would be making to take the time out to fill out our contract and insure that students were protected. Once again the Group Legal Services Program is proud to have taken the time out; David K. Brown stein Director, Group Legal Services Program — — money well spent The truth of the matter is that large chunks of the student activity fee are wasted on office budgets, unjustified stipends, fringe benefits and overpaid professional employees. And it is also true that student governments virtually any student government elected under the present is likely not to capture students' imagination, constitution especially as additional budget cuts are made. But the student government and the student corporation also provide an array of activities and services, many of which the administration should, but cannot fund. These services would be left in the air for a while at least if the referendum is approved. This is risking too much, especially since we think the referendum leaves too many idealistic gaps in the future of student life. Change is needed, but this is not the way. — — Showdown: The referendum To the Editor. - - The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. 84 — create.

This leaves Paul Glauber, Director Student Affairs �Photos by John Fliss Return to Forever returns with tighter sounds No introduction was necessary. The newly refurbished Return to Forever made their Buffalo debut. I was fortunate enough to have witnessed RTF's concert last year, and I was convinced that, after hearing that four-piece version, no Return to Forever could top it. I was indeed wrong. Chick Corea's crew is currently on an extensive tour of the U.S., and the band is the same as on the new album. I reviewed this album very favorably, recently, and was extremely anxious to witness this new band in person. The five piece horn section, led by the amazing Joe Farrell, was there, as was Gerry Brown, a recent Corea discovery, churning out the percussion. Chick's female friend, Gayle Moran, vocalized beautifully, in perfect contrast to Stanley Clarke's bassier voice. And Chick was there. Need anymore be said about this pianist extraordinaire. The show opened with possibly the best song off the new album, Corea's "The Endless Night." It was only during this song that I noticed an untogether sound. The horns were slightly off beat, and Ms. since the opening song. Moran's voice cracked slightly. However, beginning with the next song, "The Magurian," the band assimilated into a tight sound. The rest of the concert consisted of various songs off the new album, with some remarkable surprises. Stanley, most probably the best bassist around, introduced his two songs off the current disc, and his use of the upright bass The rest of the concert lived up to my highest expectations. Chick did a fine piano piece, and was accompanied by Joe Farrell on tenor sax. Stanley did an exceptional number on the acoustic bass, plucking and bowing alternately. The show lasted some two hours, with a fifteen minute break and an encore added. The encore, an acoustic piece with Chick and guitar-like electric solos proved that this tall, lanky professional was well above and Stanley by themselves, was my favorite section of the performance. Chick stated par before the encore that they rarely do this Ms. Moran sang her only song off the new album, to the accompaniment of her own piano playing, and then proceeded to introduce two other songs she wrote. Her strong, yet delicate vocals were exceptional number The audience was exceptional, considering the silence needed to do the numerous acoustic pieces. The music was tight, and Chick's band leading was superb. I got the opportunity to go backstage afterwards, and sit in on interviews with Chick and Stan. Both liked the audience and proved, by their congeniality, that they didn't let the recently acquired success go to their heads. I truthfully didn’t think they could top last year’s show, but they surpassed it with leaps and bounds. —Doug Alpern �Average White Band is no longer average "Play that funky music white boy." Wild Cherry couldn't have stated it better. In fact, two out of the three "black" funk bands billed at the Memorial Auditorium Wednesday night were all white. The show started at 8:05 p.m., with a very thin crowd in attendance. Maybe the area isn't used to a concert starting on time. The audience was predominantly black, but not by an overt amount. Slave, an all black nine piece band, opened. The instruments consisted of the usual imitation soul band: guitars, bass, drums, keyboards, and horn section. The songs consisted of extended repeats of choruses mixed with stale rhythm. The horn section was arranged well, but the notes were misplaced in the rest of the music. The band played their black network FM hit, "Slide," which got the crowd jumping, but it was their last song, too late. The half hour set was more than enough for my taste, and visions of canes yanking the band members off the stage were flashing through my head. The half hour break was much too long, but we have all learned to accept it by now. At 9 p.m., While Cherry took the stage. "You don't have to be black to play funky music," screamed the announcer. The somewhat filled-in still not crowd, approaching packed, roared with approval. Musical Xerox Wild Cherry, the band that grinded out "Play That Funky Music," got the people dancing in the aisles. The lead singer/ shouted some absurd remarks to the audience, but, stoned as they were, they ate it up. You'd think there were top billed when the confetti guns and balloons (printed Wild Cherry, oddly enough) saturated the swarms located on the floor. The guitarist band had two black horn men, a saxophone and a trumpet, and they were excellent at that. The lead singer, possessing a good strong rock voice with raunchy tinges of David Clayton Thomas, made the mistake of flirting too much with the audience. The music was tight, but tended to repeat (much in the manner of K.C.). One song, "Hot to Trot," sounded at times like a carbon copy of the Ohio Players' "Fire." They played their hit last, and the beat got everyone rockin'. Another half hour of boredom passed, while the crowd socialized and the seats took on more late spectators. Apparently none of the uppermost orange section of the Aud was sold, and the second tier blue section was spotty. The Average White Band took the stage at about 10:20. It seems like only yesterday that lan ad in The New York Times listed AWB playing at Jungle Habitat, a safari park. "Pick Up the Pieces," their first hit, fingered them for instant success. It was fitting, therefore, that they should open with this 1 by Doug Alpern Staff Writer Spectrum piece. Disco Crisco The band has progressed greatly since their American invasion from Scotland in 1974. U.S. discos wore out many copies of their first album. The group had a distinctive sound, and was the innovator'of so called white "black" music. They ran over the racial barrier into this hitherto unfamiliar region. The band has mostly remained intact. Steve Ferrone took over drums on the second album after Robbie McIntosh died of a controversial drug overdose at a posh Cher party. Ferrone has, through three studio albums, assimilated into the framework. Allah Gorrie and Hamish Stuart trade off on bass and guitar, but I think their best talent lies in their vocals. They both had strong voices on their albums, but in concert their sound is great. Their voices are high and powerful and they rang the Aud. Page ten . The Spectrum .

Dean Friedman, the 21-year-old composer/singer, was going to play the Cenfury Theatre for a Q-FM 97-cent concert May 5th. I reviewed his album very favorably, but I figured maybe I could go past the phase concert and get The (fanfare, please)! There Interview I was, two years on The Spectrum Music Staff and I didn't know where to begin. I repeated my introduction I presented my dilemma to Harold Goldberg, fellow critic but this time enunciating the who is sexually inclined towards words. "Drew Reid Kerr? That's Stevie Nicks and The Runaways some name. Wait, not let me write (not necessarily in that order). He this down!” claimed the whole thing would be Maybe I should have said Dr. no sweat. I was to call Jim Suess? I wasn't impressed, but ,I Santella during his show on Q-FM asked about the Dean Friedman and tell him I wanted the Dean interview. The reply was great: I was to go to the concert, find Jim Friedman Scoop. The next day, after some Santella and he would tell me phone finageling, I spoke to John where to go for a reception after McGahn, who answered the phone the concert. It was to be held at like he was doing a station I.D. I the Statler Hilton and I could quickly identified myself. bring as many friends as I wanted "Woah, slow down! Now, who to.

Dean Friedman has the hit single, "Ariel," I explained to them all, you know, the one about the Jewish girl wearing nothing underneath and the falsetto chorus "A-a-a-a-riel!" There were mixed grumblings, I mean, here <1-1 was, cordially inviting the 3rd Floor Clement FOOD — Nerd Patrol to accompany me on my first step into Show-Biz City. Jumpin' Joe asked how much food and booze would be at the party. KC Cohen inquired about the female population that would attend this party. It was obvious that they didn't care about the concert, it was their need to fill their bottomless stomachs that Timbo asked my if we would make the Rolling Stone. I laughed at this and said only if we threw Dean Friedman out the window, fwe could make that and the University Police Blotter, too. Paul "Right On" Pasternak couldn't go because of a softball injury, but begged me to bring him back a sandwich. To hell with food, Paul, it's the cherished Interview that held top priority!

Jim Quinn plays the rating game and wins by Harold Goldberg Spectrum Music Staff WKBW's sound on the AM radio is one of power and professionalism. Not too many years ago, kids would tell stories of how far KB's signal could travel. Someone said you could hear it in San Juan, Puerto Rico. "This is Quinn hangin' out with youse on the radio." Jim Quinn shouts the words into the microphone, his voice projecting 50,000 watts of power over the airwaves. "This hour you can hear 54 minutes of music on KB radio." He lists a large number of radio stations that play less music, then moves into the Number One song taken from the KB Top Thiry. But there is no record on the turntable. "Most of the songs we play now are on cartiridge tapes; tapes_don't wear out so fast," relates Quinn. About two and a half years ago, Jim Quinn found himself disgusted with his position of Program Director at WPLJ in New York City. He had raised the station's ratings during his stay in New York but one of the station's executives wanted to change PLJ's format of music. The typical reason for the change, hypothesizes Quinn, might have been the idea of ABC's President Hal Neal who probably got the thought from his son. “He asked, 'Daddy, why is that station doing that?' And Neal asked an executive Why are they doing that?' And the executive said to me, 'Stop doing that.' So I quit. And the ratings dropped when I left." Number One Quinn sees New York City as having some of the most dull and mediocre radio in the country. But he does not worry about that now. Subsequent to his departure from radio in New York, Quinn arrived in Buffalo. What he described as his first impressions of Buffalo might be said to be a realization of culture shock. "When I got off the plane there were no tall buildings anywhere. I thought, 'What have I done?' I'm in Buffalo and I can't even pronounce the names of the suburbs correctly." Just as Quinn became used to the working class city of Buffalo, so did Buffalo's teenagers get used to him. Not only that, they began to appreciate him. It is not strange, then, to see Quinn as having Buffalo's Number One nighttime ratings. "I get upset when other stations say they're number one. It's just not true," the radio personality observed. This point is especially true in the light of a ratings service result called 'Super-Cum,' which gives KB's advertisers endorsements on commercial spots not only in the Buffalo area, but throughout the eastern half of the country due to KB's power in the evening. Quinn switches on a Sony radio to see what songs other stations are playing. "If people are travelling in a car and hear a short version of Steve Miller's "Fly Like An Eagle," we'll play the long version on top of it." The disc jockey believes that playing the long version of a song will make the station's potential audience listen to KB and appreciate it. He stipulated that editing a song curtails the artist's creativity by cutting down on the amount of communication between the artist and the listener. Crap “The edited versions are pretty crappy," intimates Quinn. "I can't see why a record company will -spend so much money producing and promoting a record and then give it to a guy who makes $12,500 a year to do a hack job on it." Quinn says he would have added the Beatles' sound-alike, Klaatu, to KB's playlist if he had not received an edited copy of it. As KB's Music Director, Quinn admits that most records have to be recorded by well known or established artists to gain radio air play. KB is seen to look to smaller FM stations like WBUF for hints about new songs. If certain songs are being requested to a large extent by - Page twelve . The Spectrum . Wednesday, 11 May 1977 —continued on page 14— Prodigal Sun �Pitter-patter Little Feat concert and album disappointing by John Duncan "Day at the Dog Races," is a step in the right direction for the Feat, and it is these two songs which eventually make Time Loves a Hero worthwhile, if only for longtime fans. Spectrum Music Editor The pitter-patter of Little Feat is a welcome sound in this city, as in many others, and true to record-biz form, this L.A.-based phenomenon has just released a new album and gone on tour, subsequently, showing up, at Shea's Buffalo Theater on Sunday, May 1. The album. Time Loves a Hero, reveals some changes of emphasis and sound within the band and is not, on the whole, as exciting as their last two or three. The Buffalo appearance, although better, perhaps much more pleasing for fans than the new LP, was also something of a disappointment. Despite their audience's rousing welcome, the Feat sounded a little tired this night, particularly the ever-widening Lowell George. George is the closest thing to a "star” in this band of straight-forward musicians, and his subdued presence (or lack of it), both in concert and on the Hero Album, is troublesome. Previously, it had been his songs, singing and slide guitar which made early Feat Fans (among them a high concentration of rock stars and critics) as devoted as they still are. The group's other guitarist, Paul Barrere, has taken up some of George's slack, keeping things going in concert and nearly dominating the new record. Although, like keyboard whiz Bill Payne, Barrere has been writing and singing songs all along, the influence and presence of each gradually more has become apparent. Time Loves a Hero features equal doses of vocals by both guitarists, but Barrere takes credit for a lion's share of the songwriting. New producer Roller,” a Barrere "High intended originally composition for use on The Last Record Album opens the new Hero LP, revealing at once the handiwork a of producer Ted Templeman of sound than that more "LA." previous Feat Albums, where production work was by George himself. The funk is still there, in fact stronger than its ever been, but the abundance of trademark nasty and syncopation instrumentation leave one wishing that there was something more substanial out front. George's growly vocal, typically supplemented by Templeman's imprudent use of the Tower of Power horn section, elicits a shaky sense of deja vu ("It sounds very familiar, but I'm sure it was better "). "Time Loves a before was written cut, title Hero," the bassist Ken Payne and Barrere, by Gradney, and is something of a two-bit social commentary with Caribbean flavoring, in sound quite like "Day or Night" on the Again, the last album. instrumentation and rhythmic structure are nice, but the lyrics and Payne's lead vocal (assisted by the rest of the group) leave something to be desired. "Rocket in My Pocket," the Lowell George original only present, sounds closer to the "traditional" Little Feat sound " guitars and Top row, left to right: Paul Barrere congas; Lowell George vocals; Sam Clayton Kenny row: guitars, cowbells, vocals.bottom - - — Gradney vocals; - Bill bass; Richard Hayward Payne synthesizer. . . — keyboards, - drums and vocals and during his styled solo piano excursions. Payne shouts out the good times on "Oh Atlanta," and we have still not yet heard a Lowell George song, although his soloing picks up here, and with the help of Barrere and Sam Clayton (moved to drum kit except percussion, baffling, brilliantly from congas), the end of the song burns. Lowell leaves the stage, and the rest of the band indulges in a long version of "Dog Races:" more out muddy synthesizer, stratospheric guitar and piano Bassist Gradney and soloing. Drummer Richie Hayward should for their applauded be determination and precision here, but Clayton's congas can't be heard. Ten minutes later, reenter George to sing Toussaint's "On Your Way Down." Crisp piano and guitar solos again sustain answering choruses that will make this song the concert's high point. — . Buffalo concert their Shea's Buffalo In appearance, the Feat did only two new songs, relying less on recent material than they had even a year ago, when, also at the Buffalo, they played a set based mostly on The Last Record Album and Feats Don't Fail Me Now. Barrere takes an early lead this time by singing "Walkin' All Night (from Dixie Chicken ) and a ridiculously slow "Skin It Back" to begin the set. By novy we are entrenched in the sleazy world that often permeates the songs of Barrere and Payne ("Mexican hookers" are a favorite topic) and the band is not getting it right. Harmonies are tight most the time (f/Vevocalists) but tempo and soloing are blurry and slow. Next, a bit of poor|y-amplified synthesizer oppression from Bill Payne on "Red Streamliner." Normally a master of subtle voices and staccato counterinsurgency, Payne, despite a futuristic looking array of amps, mixers and monitors, can't make his instruments (Rhodes, Hammond, Arp Omni) Wurlitzer piano, audible above the guitars and than anything else on Hero, but is far from the album's best cut. Interesting slide work and clever lyrics ("Don't understand that girl, I can't explain/ She got one foot on the platform and the are on the train") Other but never really entertaining innovative. "Day at the Dog Races," however, is a different story: a very distinctive jazz-rock piece penned by Barrere, Payne, Gradney and percussionists Sam Clayton and Richie Hayward. One of the few cuts here that really stands out, "Dog Races contains changes, enough complex dissonance and power to forever disqualify Little Feat as a pure Blues-rock or R&B band. Takin' it to the streets Paul Barrere co-wrote "Old Folks Boogie" with his Father a backed by riff, honky-tonk better-than-usual sings of the senile pleasures of "And ya know unrequited lust that you're over the hill/ When your mind mades a promise that Bill your body can't fill like is, "Red Streamliner" Payne's much of his work, complicated, interesting, but not memorable. Producer Templeman has enlisted the aid of two of his other clients (Mike McDonald and Patrick Simmons of the Doobie Brothers) as background vocalists and the result, as one Doobies fan pointed out, is something quite similar to "Takin It to the Streets," with a little jazzy keyboard thrown in to keep things busy. Terry Allen's "New Delhi Freight Train" is a nice bluesy vehicle for Lowell George's voice, but is marred by Templeman's unfortunate Gabriel and, — " ... decision to add a string section The sound of shufflin' feet Little Feat albums are usually His delivery of Barrere's "All full of songs about amoral or You Dream" is not as That Up "Kpepin' but greedy women, the however, and successful, by Joneses," written the With of this rearrangment messy Barrere and George, is the on'y inferior to such song on Hero.

Prodigal Sun �—continued from page 13— Payne and Barrere cook it up solo for a while, then sink their teeth into a very well-done "Dixie Chicken." George's lead, and the backing vocals from Clayton et al. are again commendable but we are robbed of some of the best of them when the Feat forego "Cold, Cold, Cold" and goes directly from "Chicken" to "Tripe Face Boogie." Perhaps a little (ess than tight, it incites the crowd anyway, with its searing guitars and naturally, its mention of Buffalo in the first line. (Applause) But that's it. The audience is on its feet and the Feat are on their # way, A thunderous ovation brings them back (surprise) for three encores. The obvious crowd pleaser, "I'm Willin'' is first, and the crowd is so excited to hear it that they applaud all the way Jim Quinn through its acoustic introduction, follow with more applause at the first words of the firit verse, the first words of the first chorus, and at each subsequent reference to whites, and wine, "weed, surprising attempt (Applause) A soul of "Feats the multivoiced at Don't Fail Me Now” almost gets the people singing along, but confusion ensues as the group walks off again, one by one, still singing. So that's it, right? No, they walk on again, and with a "Teenage terse Nervous Breakdown," (from Sailin' Shoes ) bid Buffalo goodbye, Lowell George and Little Feat may be still alive and kicking, but the predictability of their new album and the spottiness of theirlive act indicate that, unless these shoes are soon resoled, they may never sail again. —continued from page 12— ... listeners of these stations, those songs might be added to KB's playlist. But Quinn must be careful of what songs are made part of the playlists; for a song not to become popular after addition to the list yields a certain loss of credibility to the 50,000 watt giant that is WKBW. Hypothesizing about a formula he would choose to air should he completely control the songs to be played on a large station, Quinn's eyes light up as he says, "Mellow rock. It's a format on the West Coast that's pretty big. The songs are soft, like James Taylor, The Eagles, and Linda Ronstadt. It's pretty music." Young girls This night / /t is hot in the KB studios; the air conditioning has broken down. $4 degrees of heat and Kiss in Calling Dr. Love. Quinn puts forth that not many people will phone in requests on a warm night as they are either outside or riding in a car. "Usually you get lonely girls with sensual, sexual voices and size 42 belts," quips Quinn. But the phone does ring It is Nina from Long Island calling long distance. She is picking up KB on her radickin New York. At Quinn's last job in that city, Nina became a fan after her friend won a free '{rip to Staten Island. The second prize was tvyo free trips to Staten Island. The practical joke and Quinn's personality seem to have created an undying loyalty for him. Trying tb get a feeling for what music the kids are listening to these days, I ask to answer the phones for a while-. This task is usually that of Julie Halpert but she was persuaded to let me take over the job. Eleven-year-old Doreen wants to hear "Hotel California" by the Eagles. She likes Quinn because he is "funny on the radio." Denise is fourteen years old and requests Leo Sayer's "When I Need You." Sixteen-year-old Ann is a Kenny Nolan devotee as she gives a critique of the new single, "Love Grown Deep.''She is upset that KB is not yet playing it. Nancy has a sexy fourteen-year-old voice and wishes to hear Diana Ross' "Love Hangover." She likes Quinn "Because he picks you up." That he does, Nancy, That he does.

Rain's, favorite Bonnie is the For Little Feat that matter. Ronstadt's, too. to managed has Los Angeles that only band from are Feat's members critical world satisfied. the keep some of the most in-demand musicians for today's premiere solo artists. Lowell George was a guiding force on Jackson Browne's Pretender. Bill Payne's been with Bonnie Raitt since the first album. Sam Clayton can be found playing percussion on a multitude of records. At their concert last Sunday at Shea's, the Feat demonstrated what keeps them critically aloft where others have fallen. There's a toughness, a funk to their playing. It's a spine that, unfortunately, has been missing from many a band's work lately. As a result, they've developed a raving cult, unrivalled in their musical devotion. Members of the band talked about these and other facets of Little Feat after the show Sunday night: They're Paul Barrere: How did you like the show? The Spectrum: I really liked it. Manager: Nobody left for five minutes after the lights went on. PB: Good, It's a good sign. Sam Clayton: Normally we would have played for a longer time. The Spectrum: Why didn't you? SC: Some of the guys in the band didn't feel too . well. Spectrum; you Did mention Oscar The Henderson tonight? Bill Payne: No. I mentioned Oscar Peterson. I said I wished I could play like him. But I decided to just play like I play. The Spectrum; Has he been a big influence on your playing? ,1,BP: No, not really, I just saw a vefy nice program with Oscar Peterson and Andre Previn and they were just sitting there rapping about music. And they had two pianos and they played to illustrate a point. The Spectrum:Are you very influenced by classical music? BP; Yeah I like a lot of different things, classical, rock. The Spectrum: Jazz? BP: Really! Some of the stuff that Weather Report has been coming out with lately. The Spectrum: I think "A Day at the Dog Races" has a bit of that influence. BP: Yeah, I think what it is .. I could play you, if I had it, a tape of, like a show we did with the Allman Brothers back in '71 or '72, when we had Roy Estrada. In '71, we did an off-key tune. It had chordal clashes and stuff. We've been into that stuff for a while. The Spectrum: Speaking of '71. Do you remember a riot at a free concert you were supposed to play at Delaware Park? Why didn't you play? Ritchie Hayward: Buffaloed in Buffalo. BP: We weren't going to play with them throwing rocks. It happened before we went on. A policeman's horse got hit and that's how the fight started. The Spectrum: What do you have to say to the media tonight in Buffalo, the site of the blizzard of "77? Paul Barrere: HMMM. I saw the place the cathedral where they dumped all the snow. All I can say is that I really feel for you folks. It must have been one helluva winter. I think I mentioned that , ... . - onstage tonight The Spectrum: Why didn't you do Cold" tonight? know why? PB: I think part of the reason for that is because we stayed outside Baltimore for about six months, when we made Feats Don't Fail Me Now. So they relate to us in a big way. Eddie Kolikeus is another reason. He'd play us a lot out there in Bethesda. He worked for WHFS. The Spectrum: Do you like playing there? PB: We love it. The crowds are great, the crowds in Boston are also great. We always play in this place called the Orpheum. We played there one Halloween and there were all these people with costumes. It was incredibly freaked out. The Spectrum: Buffalo is never like that. PB: Buffalo seems a rather mild sort of crowd. The Spectrum: It reminds me of last year when you played with Toots. PB: They seem to sit and watch us more than . . We're hot the kind of band to watch. We're the kind of band that you close your eyes and listen to They tend to watch us. We don't get into the flash and the pant of the crowd. We stand on our music. That's why people stand up at the end of our show, because they have watched and they have listened. I think people would have a much better time if they forgot what they were watching. We could put cardboard cutouts on the stage and play behind them, because we're really not a show band. The Spectrum (to Ritchie Hayward); You gonna tell me why you were in correctional school later? RH: What? Where did you hear that? I was only kicked out of three high schools. The Spectrum: Ah, ha! PB: Let's smoke this Thai stick joint. This is gonna be written right? You're not gonna play this on the air? The Spectrum: No. PB: Good, (into the mike) FUCK SHIT, FUCK SHIT!!! The Spectrum: Why do you screw up on so many record covers? PB; Oh yeah, because we're basically confused. The Spectrum: Is that why "Spanish Moon" wasn't listed on the cover of Feats ? PB: Yeah, all those things were (whistles). We went a little haywire. The Spectrum: Why was "High Roller" crossed off The Last Record Album? PB: Man, it was down to the last minute. It was 6 a.m. and me and Lowell were listening to the final mix and I looked at him and said that's a fucking piece of shit. If they put that fucking thing in there, I'm gonna die, and he said, "you're right". So he called up Warner Brothers and said, "cross that one out and put 'Maybe Next Time." We already have our own case history of weird shit. I don't know many people that can trip over their own feet, three or four times a day and still wind up standing. RH: Was that a pun? The Spectrum: Should we ask them what size feet they have, now? PB: Jesus Christ, (laughter) I wear a size ten. The Spectrum; Do you get asked that a lot? PB; This is the first time in a long time. You see Lowell is the guy with the little feet. Only except they're wide, they're about as wide as they are long. They look like Earth pods. The Spectrum: Why is it that you guys have not gone the way of all the other "L.A." groups? PB: This organization is run in such a unique . way. RH: There's an aura of obstinance that overrides any aura of logic. You know all the L.A. bands are logical, so they mess up all the time, so they can't make any money. PB: It's sorta like we're too obstinate to make "Cold* Cold, PB: Lowell's voice is a little bit out because he's got this respiratory infection. It's that we're doing a lot of two show nights. The Spectrum: What about the D.C. album? You're doing five shows. . . PB: Six shows! We're not going to do the live album now, because our voices are going out and stuff. So we decided to not waste the money. The album will probably be done in September when we tour England. We'll probably do it there. The Spectrum: You're really big in D.C. Do you any money. RH: So we just hang on till the end PB: It's sorta like the Enterprise. Everything would be going along, but everytime we'd beam get down we'd onto an adventure that's unbelievable. So we'd wind up screaming "beam us aboard Scotty." And we'd go into the caves for another eight months . . What was the question? RH: Why aren't we like the other L.A. bands? PB: O.K., L.A. bands like Love, The Doors, The Byrds, The Eagles, these guys go back. RH: I was in a cab the other day and the cabbie . —continued on page 18— Prodigal Sun �Percussion Ensemble: Howling with the storm Very often people come to me, asking 'why do you write about black music aH the time' and 'why you write about black culture so much?' / say 'why not?'

I'was psyched, folks, right up to the very, hour all my friends and ! vyer'eto leave for the affair. I was in the early car pool, to be there at the Century nice and early. I waited patiently as the guy who was going to drive us did not show up. At the moment of hopelessness, determining the driver missing, the rest of the crew lost interest and decided to take in some cinematic perversion at the Conference Theatre. It was 9:45 p.m., more than an hour after the concert had begun and I was muttering revenge and moping around my room. Finally, Timbo called-, said he was late from chem lab and, let's git to the Concert. The Late Car Pool shot down Main Street, led by the Mario Andretti disciple, the inevitable Tall Paul. We hit the Century at 10 p.m getting into a crowd mainly consisting of college girls and couples, all numbering perhaps a thousand. Friedman was belting it out with his 4-piece band td a nicely enthusiastic audience. When he broke into "Ariel," the people were ricocheting out of their, seats. What really struck me about this song was that Friedman was singing the high parts, not a girl, as I had thought. • • like he,was one-hundre-years old! This all seemed sufficient to me. A bearded young man, Andrew Miller, a seeming veteran at these parties, said that the Ozark Mountain Daredevils bash had better food, including large shrimps and other hot food, unlike the deli being served at the Friedman affair. He made the point, though, that the Friedman concert was better. Tall Paul was anxious to split from the premises. I wanted to talk to Dean Friedman. I wasn't nervous, no, this wasn't Mick dagger. Alby Hecht, Friedman's hyper road manager, was setting tracks in the carpeting from pacing around like a maniac. Timbo and Tall Paul cut out and I was' promised a lift home from Lenny from the Co-op. Geez, what we gotta do to get The Interview! 'Johnny Carson,, was passing time with Rodney Dangerfield on the Boob Tube when I was introduced to Dean Friedman after some guy from Toronto questioned him to death in the room.

I I decided to do it with the kid who guards the backstage door at the Century. I asked him if he had been to any good parties lately. He told me he attended the one the Kinks held at the Holiday Inn.

I ran into a spurt. A really good A really creative spurt. It was amazing. On the new record I got 6 of the 9 tunes. Because I’ve been; literally busting my ass to write songs. ,1 wanted to become more prolific when I write, so I did a Country and Western ballad; a number that I had written with Tower of Power when we were touring called "Keeping Up With the Joneses." in Europe You can figure that one out for yourself. Then I wrote a tune with my father called "Old Folks Boogie," which is a line that he used to recite to me all the time. It’s just that there are a lot of old folks out there that are still boogeying. The old folks gotta boogie too. Billy and I and Kenny wrote "Time Loves a Hero," which is a bit strange. Bi*t, the premise of that was time loves a hero, but only time will tell. For instance: Richard Nixon was voted in the election by a monumental landslide and then four years later he got a big boot in the ass, when everyone found out he was jacking us all off. You can change the words around, but you get my drift. Also, on the other hand there are people like Michelangelo or Vincent Van Gogh. People that didn't attain their glory during their life time.

Here you have middle man America, who is so fucking bored with his life, his wife, 9 to 5, his car, the freeway, his office. Then he goes on this fishing trip to Puerto Rico and he never comes back. And for this he's a hero because he beat the blue collar hell.. The Spectrum; Would you like to be more like Michelangelo? PB: No, I'd rather be like Spiro Agnew and get the money right now (laughter). The Spectrum: Is Bill Payne getting heavily into jazz? PB: Yeah! I'm a real jazz freak also, so is Sam. I go way back. I really love Eric Dolphy. I think Thelmonius Monk is one of my biggest heroes. You know it gets down to essentials. The early Miles Davis group. Whoosh. John Coltrane. I could rattle on, I mean Dexter Gordon! A good friend of mfhe is Leroy Vinegar, the bass player who played with Les McCann all those years. And even the new wave jazz. I'm crazy about it. Abercrombie and Sancious. That's what I like about "Dog Day at the Races." It's a kind of midstream between them and rock and roll. The Spectrum; How does Lowell take this? It seems his taste is very different. He didn't even play on "Dog Day at the Races." Why not? PB: Well he never played on it. It was like a jam that basically the five of us did at sound checks and he would never come to sound checks. So this tune developed. Lowell is getting to the point, where I basically tell him not to do interviews because it adds to his mystique. I'm trying the reverse psychology routine The Spectrum; Sounds like Jerry Garcia. PB: Yeah, it's the same trip. Lowell had been doing it since the beginning. The Spectrum: Did Lowell sell his hat? PB: No, as a matter of fact. It got left in his suitcase, which got left in a trailer that leaked in a big heavy rainstorm about two years ago. When he got it out it was like a moldy fig newton. Christ. But there'.s another one that we got for him, but it was thrown out. The Spectrum: Why are your recordsso consistently late getting to the record stores? PB: (laughter) Our record was late because Lowell got sick. The Spectrum: Nothing serious? PB: Well, he was .. ill. He was in the hospital. He's still got a little respiratory infection. Basically we had that and then in the final routine somebody that knew us was pressing records out in California for Warner Brothers and we got a first pressing back and it was a bag of shit. So we had to go back and do that whole number again. The Spectrum: I guess we have to cut it short. Last question. Does the band do any drugs? PB:’ Does the band do any hard drugs?

For some unknown transgression, the Buffalo weather was just not about to let us have our free day in Delaware Park. Under the threat of heavy winds and cymbals blowing into some yak cages, the UUAB-Buff State-BUF show was moved into the gym at the College at 7 and 10 p.m. Sunday night. This originally put a slight damper on things, but by the time Jesse Colin Young finished his first number, the crowd forgot all the delay and inconvenience and went with the music, as an audience often does. The first obstacle arose on Thursday, when Garland Jeffreys cancelled his tour. As a replacement, Buffalo got its first reggae concert act since Bob Marley last May. The Heptones are straight from Jamaica (de reel ting, mon), and are as professional an act as the old Motown ones were, complete with choreography and Michael Jackson look-alike vocalist. Aside from Marley's "Roots, Rock, Reggae," the Heptones performed all their own tunes, mostly your average Jamaican political philosophy numbers. But they were fun, at least. Mink DeVille was not so funny. An advance pressing of his album hinted at a Southside Johnny R-n-B oriented band. The performance was more along the lines of Lou'Reed's music. At one point during "One Way Street," I heard something of "I Can't Explain," But they were far too loud for the gym. After repeated requests from the crowd to turn the volume down, DeVille responded by calling them all assholes. His further response was to describe a highly denigrating and what he must have thought amusing scenario between Joni Mitchell and her producer. That did nothing to win the hearts of an audience that was probably 90 percent idolatrous of Ms. Mitchell. Two numbers after this, he left the stage. On the wing The reception of the first two acts showed quite clearly what the audience wanted to see. When Jesse Colin Young and band came on with "Songbird," the restlessness and bad mood disappeared. Spontaneous applause was heard in the middle of the opener, always a good sign. Young himself seemed a bit tired, but happy that he made it. Jesse, who professes a true love for dixieland and ragtime, enlisted wife Suzi for "Do It Slow," a number from the latest album. Love On The Wing. "I just love it," said Young. "There's been ragtime and dixie tunes on almost all the albums as far back as when Jerry Corbitt and I formed the Youngbloods, and "Grizzly Bear" was the first tune." Young pointed out that many people think of more as jazz than actually is, due to the horn work of Jim Rothermel and Peter Welker. Welker, who joined the band this tour, played an excellent flugelhorn during "Do It Slow," while Rothermel amazed the audience with Dixie clarinet. Young took up a telecaster on "Louisiana Highway," with Suzi doing percussion. Ms. Young is more up front than ever, taking several vocal solos throughout the set. But it was "Before You Came," when Jesse played his first leads of the evening, that got the standing ovation. Keyboardman Scott Lawrence contributed synthesizer, in the echoed manner of "Ridgetop," from the "Song For Juli" collection. After Hank Williams' "Hey Good Lookin'" the band closed with "T-Bone Shuffle." Jesse did a little scat singing with his guitar, a la George Benson. The encore Lightshine," and silence was descended in minutes, as Jesse, Suzi, and Bassist David Hayes sang the harmonies. Rothermel took a beautiful sax break here, and the song ended with the house lights on. The late show got the extra added bonus a second encore of "Get Together," resurrected from the Youngblood days. The park was cold yesterday, but the gym was windproof. Everyone involved with producing this show should be commended for getting it off the ground under the most horrendous circumstances. No one can control the weather, but the crowd was able fo get off on the music anyway. Now, if only it were " — July . . .

If the Bulls had any chance to make the ECAC Playoffs, the losses to Division III Ithaca probably killed it. The two losses snapped Buffalo’s seven game winning streak, and dropped the Bulls’ record to 18-18. A tournament selection committee will decide whether the Bulls make the playoffs later this month. In the four wins, Buffalo’s pitching was exceptional; as Bill Casbolt pitched a two-hitter against Penn State on Thursday, and then combined with DiflJ Griebner to no-hit Colgate on Saturday in SPENDING THE SUMMER IN NEW YORK?

Reasonable fees are made possible by the support of the City and State of New'York. Upper East Side at 68th Street between Park and Lexington. The college is conveniently located on the the second game of the doubleheader. Ron Nero allowed only six hits as Buffalo beat Colgate 7-1 in the first game, and Dave Borsuk, Griebner, and Jeff Geruatt allowed Canisius only six hits on Friday leading the Bulls t.o an 8-2 win. In that no-hitter, Griebner started and pitched well, although he allowed a run in the second on a sacrifice fly. Buffalo could only score one run, and after five innings, the score was deadlocked. Griebner hit one Colgate batter in the sixth and walked another, and with two on and one out, Buffalo Coach Bill Monxarsh sent Casbolt to the mound. Casbolt struck out two Colgate batters to. end the inning, and then Buffalo scored twice in the seventh to win the game. Frozen field Against Ithaca at frozen Peelle Field on Sunday, Buffalo could do not right. The first game saw them drop a 9-3 decision as Bombers’ pitcher John Minarcin went all the way. Casbolt and a cast of thousands took the mound for Buffalo. Ithaca jumped to a quick 4-0 lead off of the usually reliable Casbolt who was replaced by Borsuk in the third. It appeared that Borsuk had calmed the storm but in the top of the fifth inning Ithaca’s Gary Kucich led off with a walk, and after shortstop Kevin Van Remmen flied out, John Nicolo singled Kucich to third. Both runners scored immediately when first baseman Richard Preston hit a tremendous home run over the right field fence. putting the game out of reach. The Bulls mounted their only offensive threat of the afternoon in the bottom ha|f of the fifth inning, when they gathered three runs on two hits and some control trouble by Minarcin. Bulls score Left fielder Scott Raimondo led off for the Bulls with a single, and quickly found himself on third base when Minarcin walked Jack Kaminska and Mike Dixon consecutively. It appeared that the Ithaca hurler was trying to keep the ball away from the hard-hitting Dixon, and issued a semi-intentional pass. Minarcin then wild-pitched one run home, and catcher Phil Ganci hit into a fielder’s choice driving home another. After Mike Groh struck out and Pederson walked, Jim Wojcik singled up the middle, bringing in the Bulls’ final run. Ed Durkin fanned to end the inning. The second game was not much different than the first, except that the Bulls got zero runs in this one and the weather got colder. Ithaca hurler Karl Steffin kept the Bulls in check for the entire game allowing three harmless singles to Ed Durkin, Joe Vizzi, and Wojcik. Additionally, Steffin prevented the Bulls from garnishing any luck from the wind, keeping his pitches low so that the Buffalo batsmen were unable to get the ball in the air. Through the first innings the Bulls managed two singles and two fly balls to the outfield, hitting everything else right around the diamond. Betz struggles Sophomore Mike Betz started the game for Buffalo, but was replaced by frosh righthander Bill Coomber in the fourth. Betz had walked six men in three and a third innings before yielding the mound to Coomber. The most probable reason for the Bulls’ poor showing is baseball itself. The Buffalo squad had played a total of six games between Thursday and Sunday and were undoubtedly tired from the rigorous schedule. After Saturday’s twinbill to Colgate University, they immediately traveled home for the set against Ithaca. As Coach Monkarsh commented on the sidelines during the second game’s waning moments, “They’ve just had too much baseball in the past few days.” LIMITED COLLECTOR S EDITION RED For further information write or call: SCHOOL OF GENERAL STUDIES HUNTER COLLEGE OF THE CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK 695 PARK AVENUE, NEW YORK, N Y. 10021 (212) 570-5646 bjr/tralfjazz/wbfo present BIN RECORDING ARTISTS ON TOUR Gary Burton Quartet FEATURING CBCRHRRD UICBCR German Acoustic Bassist Gary Burton/vibes Pat Metheny/guitar Steve Swallow/electric bass DannyGottlieb/drums TU. one night only h/lowiO I DUiS., lYlay 8:30 pm TERRACE ROOM-STATLER HILTON Tickets: $5.50 advance $6 door P.

Page twenty-one �* r '4 Guest Opinion by Marty Schwartz I normally choose not to write guest opinions, for I feel a good news story will explain the facts of a Controversial stituation, and trust the readers to grasp their significance and then make up their own minds. However, the running debate over the “Leverendum” has become so complex and distorted, the main points have been lost. Thus, it is important to put into perspective what actually happened regardless of the voting. The significance of this referendum is to show that the Student Association has lost touch with the feelings and mood of the undergraduate students on this campus. And how could it be any other way? The SA is usually run by white, middle class establishment type. Yet, the demographics of this campus show that there at least 50 percent local commuter students and a significant minority population. Why are they not represented in the policies of our student government? There are important groups on this campus seriously dedicated to changing the social and political systems we live under. Why are their voices not heard? The point of this whole mess is to show that SA is politically and culturally/ethnically out of touch with the very people they are supposed to represent. In many ways they have assumed many of the same bureaucratic and administrative characteristics as the University Administration they are at war with. And that is what this referendum is about. To make no bones about it, Michael Stephen Levinson, or Lev, is a nut. The self-styled prophet and occasional diplomat/sun of god, is off his rocker. Not only that, he is a capitalist at heart who in all of his seemingly radical proposals, always ends up being the middle man, getting a “small one or two percent cut of the take." If the referendum does pass making Lev the head of this new governmental structure, I would strongly recommend a weekly audit of the books, and a constant inspection of the conflict of interest laws, as he tries to sell his book. However, the point is that the SA has used Lev as a scapegoat to obscure the real meaning of this referendum. It is amazing that when threatened .they react with the same conservative administrative tactics as the University Administration. The nerve of Dennis Delia, claiming that the new proposal is “clearly illegal because it violates mandatory fee guidelines by not having an elected body administer the fee.” Does he think everyone is a fool? Nowhere in the mandatory fee guidelines does it say anything about requiring an elected student body. All it requires is that the fee be distributed by a “representative student organization.” The Student-Wide Judiciary saw right through this scare tactic and voted to hold the referendum. For those of you who attended David Frye, you saw a clear example 6f the manner in which the SA conducts itselves. Before the show, the head of the Speakers Bureau asked the audience to vote no on the referendum, caliming I found her it might mean an end to next year s events. scare but you ..quote want to comment “we don’t are the they only ones believe that actually Do they ironic. on this campus that can run speakers events, and that under another system we would have nothing. It is this currently very same elitist, petty bureaucratic attitude the SA structure that this running rampant in to correct. was trying referendum The point is this: to get ourselves together as students and members of this University community, some serious changes are going to have to be implemented if we are going to have a say in the way this campus, and in the long run, this country, is governed. The government in action class is one alternative to what has clearly proven to be a failure. While there are many faults with the proposal, it is an attempt at change, and that is what is important. In all probability the referendum will fail, for most of the undergraduate students have become so alienated from their student government, and the small minority of hacks who decide the SA elections will probably be the only ones who care enough about their positions to vote in this issue. Regardless, a real change is needed if we are to get ourselves out of the sea of mediocrity we seem to have not for Lev but to fallen into. 1 urge you to vote yes breathe some new life into the four air surrounding the second floor of Norton Hall. — - — — Marty Schwartz is a ContributingEditor of The Spectrum. Guest Opinion simposiums by Michael Stephen Levinson “Ail the business of the Undergraudate Student Association shall be conducted by a series of courses In Government Action (IGA) for course credit. No student taking courses in Govt. Action (IGA) shall receive monies for such work performed.” The Thomas Jefferson Course of Action. The Thomas Jefferson School of Governmental Studies. Include a School of Journalists. Who wants to write a charter for the student’s own school of governmental studies should vote yes and consider signing up. Who gets high with Thomas Jefferson sign up. Who walks on Jefferson Street sign up. “There is no course there is no course” spouts Dr. Deliaberg like Nomad Dr. Spoutsverg from Star Trek shrill and logical Dr. Spoutsverg the Nomad Dean of The Colleges spits off in The University. There isn’t an innovative bone in Dr. Spitsberg’s whole body which is why he was hired in the first place one week and tenured to Dean the disordered colleges the in the next Colleges whose conception had been besmirched by the revolution. At that time (’73) Academic Supervision was non-existent or simply out of focus with the rest of the university and the college’s over all reputation stunk. Regular departments wouldn’t allow elective credit or cross registration, etc. Spitzberg’s job as Dean was to disengage from the teaching experience at SUNYAB people like Michael Stephen Levinson who had without academic credentials gained through Sarah Computor a foothold in the — — — university. For those students who want to know whether Michael Stephen Levinson, the authored petition to make the student govt, for course credit instead of money can teach the course the answer is yes if those who sign up for the course want him to . . . maybe. Credit in the student’s govt, for course credit is given where credit is DUE. The reason the SA has never been able to establish themselves as a credit bearing course is they have never been able to describe what it is that they do that is credible and to have a course the requirement is a course description. They are incapable of writing a course description. Credit is given for original research into previous student their policies etc., in order to deturmine the whereabouts of six million dollars in a seven year period. Class goal: our history in Book form: The Next Generation of Haldemans and Erlichmens share in the prophets of millions in sales with Lev him write you research. Four hundred students in a government for course credit (no other school in the USA has anything even approaching this) can deturmine a fair and equitable manner for the righteous distribution of the mandatory activities fee-produce a meaningful SKATE-create a couple — DO THINGS. Vote yes for The Leverendum and in effect you pull the lever down on the dummies whove been misrepresenting you and sucking up yer monies. Credit in The Thomas Jefferson Course of Action for Credit The first IGA Course is given for outside readings in the life and works of Thomas Jefferson and an essay adapting Jeffersonian principles to our problems here ets. For the privilage of being in charge of nine hundred thousand dollars you should be willing to do genuine original academic work besides being the government. Making it new. The Administrators are going to have to find a new way of doing business with you. They will no longer be able to simply stroke some kid with a recommendation into Law School rather they will have to come before the body at large. You should see this guy Lorenzetti for yourself. You might not want to do business with him and then Dr. Ketter will look for a new vice-president for academic affairs or whatever he is he’s the vice-president in the university who was in cahoots with former President Michelle Smith when the students for busses to Attica albany got the shaft thanks Dr. Larenzetti we know you love the students. The four hundred students in The Govt, for Course Credit can deturmine upon examination of Dr. Ketter’s Academic Plan as it appeared for The University in The Reporter Sept 1975, that Dr. Ketter’s plan is non legible and upon dismantling Dr Ketter’s Plan deturmine that it is not feasable for this university and that the bureaucrats in Albany might have made the same deturmination based on the faulty academic plan and the students could formally withdraw their support from Dr. Ketter in his role as President of The Universicy. The students in a government for course credit could deturmine that the President hired in the midst of the revolution at SUNYAB has fulfilled his mission as president of the university times have changed and its time for a change. On the other hand Dr Ketter the President of the University can very simply pick up the phone and plug the Govt, for Course Credit into Sarah Computor and let the Govt, be credit bearing as it reforms itself into something credible. A government for course credit can form a banking committee and in two years time make our own bank; The Student’s Savings and Loan. Credit for such a course is not going to be denied anyone. The undergrad who joins the banking committee in The Govt, for Course Credit could be the Director of a bank before hes twenty and skip graduate school. Whatever it is that govt, does you can do I mean good things if you cut out the pork barrel at Jew Be The Temple on the Hill. The Leverendum (a yes vote) is going to save the Undergraduate Student Association between one and two hundred thousand dollars the first year. .The SA office Page twenty-two The Spectrum .

If you do Michael Stephen Levinson and the administrators of the university will make it happen for you. If you dont vote for it you wont get it. Nor will you ever be able to hear or find out who or what Michael Stephen Levinson was about. They keep focusing on him the so-called ex fruit vendor. What they dont tell you is that he wrote a book on the premises of this university that foretold every major political event in America since 1970. You never heard the Story of Adman and Even? Never heard of The Book of Lev. Why do they call him a “self-styled” prohpet? Does any other campus have such an animal. Is it a noble effort to say a spoken poem for three ahd a half billion people to see listen to and be a part of all at once (via the AT&T). Is it worth a noble prize. Is three dimensional television for teaching in the public schools better than bussing? Could this place become The COLAB the Center of Learning at Buffalo Where People Collaborate. Is the world ready for a Center of Learning. Are the undergrads ready to prepare a govt, for it? Do we want a world wide supermarket, Bank, 17 story cilindrical hotel out in Amherst that we own and operate cooperatively for the benefit and replenishment of the University or does the place sink like the titanic. If it sinks than whoever you are your work here will have been for nothing. Vote yes and give yourself a chance. A girl wrote in Monday’s paper that you should vote against the Leverendum. That I was deceiving you in the withholding of ideas and information. I spent an hour one day talking with her and a friend explaining-answering questions they let her join the Senate through some task force and now she endorces their point of view. Who should control the activities fee? Yourself or Jeff Lessoff. — A full structural analysis would explain how The Spectrum is going to be rejuvinated; and the student’s corporation. Sub Board.

To the Editor. by It is becoming increasingly obviou,s to this individual that the University Police is neither in touch with the means of effectively dealing with those in need of help nor in tune with the ends which our University community seek. Today, May 8, a woman was apprehended for attempting to break into Acheson Hall. I made the call to the University Police after speaking with the woman. At that time I thought it was in the best interests of all concerned that she be restrained from doing damage both to herself and to University property. After signing a deposition, I was assured 1 feel I must condemn the selection process of next year’s chairperson for. the UUAB Video Committee (ACT V). Over the past 13 months, technical services director Jeff Schier, myself, and other committee members have built the Video Committee into a vital and thriving media services organization. We realize all the strengths and weaknesses of the committee and we know what it requires to successfully run an organization of its type. Yet, our input into the selection process was not asked for, and when given, was totally ignored. 1 believe the major share of responsibility for this situation falls upon the shoulders of division director Jim Brickwedde. I wonder what criteria could have been used, since the person chosen has no knowledge or nor skills with television production, video, or media services. 1 believe this choice to be unwise and perhaps even despotic. It is also dangerous. The Video Committee now has the potential to be a real campus television facility controlled by student input. But it never will, be with someone totally unskilled directing it. I would suggest that the selection process be redone, this time with input from present committee members (neither the person chosen nor anyone on the selection committee were Video Committee members nor were they familiar with its programs and facilities). If no one is qualified (which I doubt) then a temporary chairperson should be appointed until someone suitable is found. I am graduating from U.B. in a few weeks and won’t be here to witness the outcome. However, I would hate to see something that so many worked so hard to build be so easily destroyed. both University Police that Psychiatric Dr. Musselman, called in from the Health Services and by the University the woman would be taken to the Meyer Center for. observation. Instead the woman was taken to the Buffalo, Police where she was summarily arrested. At last check she was still being held in prison. ' This is a woman who is clearly in need of help; a woman who is frightened and who needs understanding and compassion; not the atmosphere that a prison cell provides. I blew it!! I called University Police. I should have known better! Arthur-Schwartz Once more for the KMT . To the Editor Since submission of the article, “Taiwan: Human Rights Being Violated” {The Spectrum, May 4, 1977), we have been able to. update with additional information in regard to the fate of the political prisoners who had been arrested without formal charge by the Kqomintang (KMT) government during last summer. The secret arrests were accounted to the three independent sources, namely the Ear East Economic Review, the Sin Tao Jih Pao, and Amnesty International, Osaka, Japan. It was later confirmed by a source close to the KMT government, Chung (Jang Jih Pao, that 19 persons including Chen Ming-chung were arrested. Between November 23 and 29, various spontaneous protests and demonstrations were initiated in several cities to the KMT consulates in the States after participants had obtained the absolutely reliable report from London Amnesty International saying Chen Ming-chung. sentenced to death ca November 10, and requesting urgent appeal to the KMT government staying execution. On November 26, a KMT consulate official in New York City denounced the execution of Chen Steven R. Keeler Steven Keeler has worked with the UUAB Video Committee for three years and has been its chairperson for the past thirteen months. Ming-chung, but, in the first time, admitted Chen’s and many others’ arrests which had yet to be tried. According to the Chung Yang Jih Pao, 13 of the recent arrested had been tried and sentenced on November 27 as follows: 1. Chen Ming-chung and Chen Chin-hub each 15 years in prison; 2. Tsai Yi-chung and Huang Nai-hsin each 10 years in prison; 3. Lee Tse-lin 8 years in prison; 4. Liu Jian-shao and Lin Yen-huei each 7 years in prison; 5. Nina Huang 3 years in rehabilitation; all for possessing and reading books from mainland China and therefore attempting to propagate communism, and 6; 5 others were unable to be sentenced for lack of chargeable “evidence.” While updating with the above information, we strongly protest the recent secret arrest of many others on undisclosed alleged political “crimes.” Such actions are flagrant violation of the political freedom and other basic human rights of the people in Taiwan. charged China Study Group GSA Guest Opinion by Pat Lovejoy Let me address the undergraduate student body both as a concerned undergraduate feepayer and as a member of the Student Association Executive Committee. As a feepayer, I have an opinion on how student government should be run; as an Executive Committee member I have knowledge on how SA is run. 1 would like to preface by statement by saying I am not afraid of losing my job, my power, or whatever else I I could live very well without the headaches. have Although previous letters in this column attacked SA President Dennis Delia and Vice President for Sub Board Jeff Lessoff specifically on this account, when you speak of them you are also speaking of me, (and Andy, Paul, Elsie, Peter, Abed and Eddie). We work as a team that is the only effective mode of operation. The question of the occurances of the past few weeks is no moot. The referendum is being held. The course of events that led up to this referendum is now irrelevant. What we must now consider is the referendum question. The theory of receiving credits rather than a stipend for working in S.A. is good. The theory of involving more students in decision-making is good. The methods of implementing these theories that we are being asked to vote upon are of questionable merit, however. Remember that you are only voting on what is written on the ballot any particulars about implementation that are being circulated, either verbally or through the media, are tentative and could be drastically changed after the vote. (This is not to say with any certainty that they will be changed, but tne possibility is there.) The referendum is not even asking for your approval of these proposals in theory, when you come right down to it. Let me enumerate my observations about the “Constitution by Substitution” that is before us today and tomorrow. I. The referendum does not provide for who is going to develop the course and see that it is implemented. This could very well be done by one person. This could very well be done by Michael Levinson a non-student who has no right to do such things. Or it could be done by a group of students. But who’s to say? If the referendum is passed there most likely will be no official body to see that it gets done at all. 2. The refer ndum does not specify a date that it will into effect. It does not specify a date that a course must go be established by. It does not provide an alternative if it is — — — — found impossible to form such a course. Is S.A. in its present form abolished immediately or does it continue to operate until the course begins? Both interpretations are possible the way the document is written. What should we ask the “framer of the Constitution?” He’s Michael do Levinson a non-student who has no right to tell the undergraduates of SUNY/B how to run their government. 3. The referendum does not provide for the legal disbursement of mandatory student activities fees. This is where the question of dates is most important. If the present system is abolished immediately upom passage of the referendum, there will be no system recognized (by the University) to develop an annual budget. The annual budget for next year will not yet be approved both by the Financial Assembly and the President of the University. It is not possible to have a course in Government in Action begin until next spring (the deadline for course approval for Fall 1977 courses has passed). Mandatory fee guidlines require the annual budget be finalized and approved before the commencement of the regular academic year. How does this proposal account for meeting this deadline? It doesn’t. Therefore, students will pay activities fees for 1977-78 that cannot be used until 1978-79. 1 won’t even be here then. I don’t want to pay fees if I cannot possibly get one cent worth of activities or services in return. Do you? If the present system is abolished immediately upon passage of the referendum there is no provision for disbursement of fees from now until the course is developed. This would make S.A. and the Administration liable for many lawsuits. Would you want to wait until January 1978 or maybe September 1978 to be paid? As it is, if the referendum is passed, the students working the voting booths today and tomorrow may have to wait that long to get paid. I’m glad I am not working the voting booths. But, maybe Student Association will continue to operate until the course begins. That only delays the question one year. Mandatory fee guidelines call for disbursement of fees by a recognized student government through an approved disbursing agent (our disbursing agent is and would still be Sub Board I, Inc.; the referendum does not call for its abolishment). Neither the President nor the SUNY Board of Trustees will recognize a course under the Division of Undergraduate Hducation as a student government. If you doubt this, call them and ask. The President’s number is in the Student Directory and S.A. can help you call the Trustees. — — So the course that has been hailed as a way you can have a voice in dividing up $800,000.00 will never become a reality in that sense. An academic course (or the students in it) cannot possibly perform this function. I maintain that although the theory is good, the referendum is not a suitable proposal for its implementation. Until a reasonable, well-thought-out and researched proposal comes forth from a member or members of the registered, day-time, undergraduate, 67-dollar paying student body, the present system should remain. ■ One last point: the theory of credit instead of stipends has its drawbacks too. Personally, the $.46 an hour that I receive from Studertt Association enables me to get by without an outside job. If 1 had another job 1 would spend less time working for SA and my SA duties would not be carried out as well as they are now (although there is much room for improvement as far as activities go I’m open to suggestions). If I was only getting four credits a semester for working in SA as a part of a large class, I would treat it as any other class. 1 would not put a lot of may free time into it, and 1 doubt many other students would either you know, four credit hours for four contact hours. It is difficult for one person to coordinate all the clubs and activities I cannot see how all the activities and services and clubs and organizations could be well-coordinated in a classroom situation. If, however, there was a similar structure to the present one, and 1 was given 12 or 16 credits a semester to do what I do now, in an independent study situation, the job would be done even better. 1 would not have to spend my mornings in .classes. 1 could be up in the SA office planning activities. This would give me the afternoons to talk with students, get suggestions, and learn how to improve SA, its activities and its services. Doesn’t that sound like a better plan? Until this type of program is developed, and we have been working on it for a long time, let SA continue as it is. Vote NO on the referendum. And in the meantime, come up and tell me how I can.better serve you. Because 1 get $500.00 a year ($.46 an hour) and $300.00 a summer ($.50 an hour) from your fees and also because you elected me into this office, you have a right to input. If your suggestion is feasible. I’ll do it. If it’s not, we’ll discuss it and see if you can get what you want and/or need another way. Our job is to serve you please let us. — - — — Ms. l.ovejoy is SA Director of Student Activities. Wednesday, 11 May 1977 . The Spectrum .

Today his efforts paid off.” by Jeff John Staff Writer Spectrum This University of Buffalo track club finished its dual meet season last Saturday at the special “Big Four Quadrangular Invitational” held at Buffalo State. The meet, held in lieu of the annual University of Buffalo Invitational, gave Niagara University the opportunity to avenge its loss to Buffalo a week earlier in the Big Four contest. The Bulls lost to Niagara 67-77 but easily handled State 93-47 and crushed Canisius 102-30. The scores earned the Bulls a final win-loss record of 6-5. Williams breaks record The other record came in the 120 yard high hurdles. Sophomore Larry Williams blasted out of the blocks and then seemed to sail effortlessly over ten flights of hurdles before crossing the finish line in the record breaking time of 15.1. Williams also scored in the 100 and 220 yard dashes as well as running a leg on the Bulls’ victorious 440 yard relay team. In the seventeen event schedule, the Bulls scored six wins, more than any other team present, and while doing so, two University of Buffalo school records were shattered. Not, only did the Bulls win the relay for the second consecutive time against the highly regarded Buffalo State team, but they ran their fastest of the season at 44.9. Forming the relay along with After coming tantatlizingly close on two previous attempts, sophomore Mike Fischer finally etched his name in the record books when he chopped five Williams were freshmen Bob Reiss and Barry Calder and senior Paul Kubicki.

In his affadavit asking for a Restraining Order, Temporary Delia said, “The major problem by David Malats Staff Writer Spectrum The “Leverendum” will put up with the referendum is that it does not properly fall within these guidelines (mandatory fee regulations), nor does it provide the kind of financial to a vote Wednesday and Thursday of this week. At a meeting last Thursday night, the Student-Wide Judiciary (SWJ) denied the Student Association’s (SA) motion for a injunction against permanent accountability necessary to comply therewith. The referendum as circulated is merely a preamble. It is not a Michael Steven Levinson’s make student credit-granting government a course. This is the first major setback for the new administration. SA President Dennis Deha expressed his disappointment at not being able to fully devote all his time to the financial assembly hearings on next year’s budget. Instead, he will present a forum on the referendum Monday in Haas to constitution.” William Martin, a second year law student at this University represented the defendant,. Gloria Gerber, former chairwoman of the and Credentials Election Committee whose job it was to put the referendum to a vote over the legality of the referendum but, Martin felt the question was not whether the constitutional procedure was complied with. Gerber testified that she felt the referendum was not accorded proper treatment under constitutional guarantees; When asked to recount the events leading to this hearing, she stressed that Delia had purposely delayed the referendum. “On March 30, I had validated the Lounge at 1 p.m. The opening statements by the parties counselors for both reflected the focal points of the issue. Richard Lippes, SA lawyer, argued that a clearly illegal referendum should not be brought to a votd and asked the SWJ to set a precedent for this mater. He said, “Students are being asked to vote on a course that does not exist.” Lippes also charged that the referendum does not comply ’ officially recognizing petition, that ten percent of the students had signed it. There were still a few pages left unchecked and Dennis told me to wait until after with the SUNY Board of Trustees the Guidelines for use of referendum could exist. She said that according to Dean of the Colleges Irving Spitzberg and History Professor Clark Murdock the course might be taught if there is sufficient student interest. When reached for comment later Gerber told The Spectrum that a the course would be complement to student government, not a substitute. When it was pointed out that the course described the in referendum was, in fact, a substitute, not a complement, she declined further comment. Associate Vice-President for Affairs, Anthony Student Lorenzetti, was Lippes’ first witness. He testified that it is conceivable for another form of student government to take over, though the referendum is unclear on this point. Before replacing the government, the student administration must know what constitutes the new government he said, adding that until an acceptable constitution arrives, there would be no allocation of mandatory fee monies. Another Lippes witness, Tom Van Nortwick, .Executive Director of Sub Board explained that the corporation would be in chaps without SA funding, because they contribute major share of Sub Board’s funding. He said this of the wipe could out corporation’s activity division, supplies the community with which University benificial services and programs. No pressure Martin’s witnesses were mostly people who had circulated or signed the petition. They all said that they were not pressured to sign the document. Delia commented after the decision, “Every action I took can be constitutionally justified. They were all on the advice of Lippes.” He added -that he acted with the full backing of the SA Executive Committee and was supported by the Student Senate. Gerber felt that “the odds were stacked against her.” SA was entitled to a professional lawyer, but this was not funded. She had to rely on Martin, a student, to do fhe work free of charge. Lev was ecstatic foolowing the court’s decision, and applauded the justices when the hearing was over. He intends to write a analysis structural of his government. “People will vote based on ray analysis,” he said, “i know more about Buffalo student government than anyone else on this earth.” ‘Theatrical America’ Course in 19th Century American theater history by Michelle Cohen Spectrum Staff Writer It is not uncommon for students to cluster around bright, inquisitive Professor Lewis C. Perry following one of his “Theatrical America” lectures. The course, a new one, will be offered for the second time this fall in the departments of History and Theater. Unique at this University, it will serve as a model to help other universities structure similar courses. Theatrical America delves into the history of theater and Century 19th sociology of America.

Innovative format “The study of theatre,” says “may crucial Perry, raise questions about national character and national experience, about popular values and social change, and about the split between elite culture and “low” culture, things which continue to have serious consequences for the humanities in America.” Readings include such plays as Metamora, which deals with aspects of the 19th Century American Indian, East Lynne, constructed on the themes of marriage and divorce, and Eugene O’Neill’s Long Day’s Journey into Night, a portrait of O’Neill’s own family. 18th Century Producing American plays requires an intimate understanding of that culture and time. Perry explained that 19th Century acting from a contemporary point of view is exaggerated, heavily stated, assists Perry with the acting and technical aspects. “Theatrical America” is funded by a demonstration grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. Perry spent 1975-76 as a fellow at the Institute which is based at Yale University in New Haven. The Humanities Institute encourages student interest in many areas of the Humanities. Enrollments in the Humanities have declined nationwide, owing to the current trend toward engineering and business schools.

Lucia Beck �■'■'V ‘Buffalo Plan m-rmf ’ Law Deans discuss the future by Mike Buskus supporting their efforts. Faculty would themselves spend more time in collaborative efforts' to improve teaching and research, Spectrum Staff Writer The recently-drafted “Mission Statement” of the Law School here could signal long-range changes in the near future at that institution. In interviews with The Spectrum Law School Dean Thomas Headritk and several professors active the in administration articulated their persona] views and perspectives on the plan. The plan, which is still subject to approval by Academic Affairs Vice President Ronald Bunn, envisions substantial changes on both law school course offerings and style of instruction. When asked why the Law School was in need of added resources, Headrick responded that while a number of units of the Upiversity could make valid claims to increased funds, he believes the Law School “can make a claim to some increase in its resources simply because it has been underfunded in the past; because it is the only law school within the state system; because it has made a reasonable start in a fairly strong unique and interdisciplinary law school program; because it has provided some leadership in legal education all of those things point to an area of strength that the University would do well to nurture.” and all this should make this an even more interesting place than it already is.” Summing up the “Buffalo Plan,” Greiner concluded that the interchange of ideas between faculty members “ought to be seen as a regular function of this place for the next three to five years; that the way people will contribute to the attempt to develop something new and , — Rebuilding process Regarding whether he is confident of central administration approval, Headrick commented that the Law School “will get a series of preliminary indications of an intention to do these things and it will all be supportive in the long run.” Both a provisional commitment to delivery promised. Admitting that there are obstacles to be overcome in implementing the plan, the Dean remarked that the key problem is “continuity of faculty.” He added, “that’s why it’s so important to get some of these things up front settled: the tenure and promotion procedure. Then can have some reasonable assurance never going to have 100 percent assurance, but better than we have now that the working conditions the faculty will be the kind that wilt not only attract a good faculty but keep them here so that we can get some not,” he rerharked.” ■ Student reaction to the law school’s mission statement has been mixed. Many students are unaware of the plan and many others are unsure of its details. Student Bar Association Secretary, Andy Cosentino, has a favorable opinion. “1 think the trend lately has been definitely towards mediocrity and 1 think this [plan] would definitely arrest that trend and start moving towards improving the law school, and if this is perceived in the student body and the faculty and the administration simultaneously, then I think the atmosphere it’s created will attract a better reputation and a better student and faculty to the school. As we gain notice we’ll probably be in a better bargaining position within the state and the for University funds,” he concluded. Feedback expected Jeffrey Brown, a first year law student, declared that “I think it’s an excellent idea. We’re in dire need of smaller classes and more structural instruction as opposed to large classes.” Thomas Headrick David Alexander, a Student Bar Director, Association different will be as a minimum to suggested that “besides being a be open to regular discussion with good educational move, it’s a colleagues.” sound political move by the Dean to get from the State University Tough times system an allocation of more Associate Dean Wade funds.” Alexander optimistically Newhouse, indicating his approval added that “from the students up of the plan, stated that it “caught through the hierarchy up to the the spirit of plans started back in State, having people believe 1961-62. What it’s doing is something new and innovative and sharpening the focus . . . with a goal is going on here [will recognizing that if resources don’t result in making] everybody flow as freely as one would hope happier.” they’d flow when the planning The “Buffalo Plan’s” started, there may not be as much eventually fate Is unknown.

Newhouse added that he was Headrick indicated that he relatively optimistic of success for expects some definite feedback the plan. “We’re all in tough from Hayes Hall by the end of times. But if 1 were not this summer. the plan and actual of resources will be necessary, he said. Noting that the Law School is in the process of rebuilding a short-handed faculty, Headrick projected there will be no significant changes until the end erf 1978-1979. He suggested that it would take some time for new faculty to adjust to a new teaching environment. “There would be a substantial difference in the institution [by * 1981-1982] if we got the kind of support we are asking for,” he support optimistic. I’d be looking around to go somewhere else, and I’m (JUAB 0 "W Theatrical University, to establish collections of films and slides, and to pay additional teaching assistants. Although many universities are wary of innovative courses, SUNY many sponsors Buffalo experimental programs such as Perry’s. Uninhibited by restrictive the c.urricular requirements, course can take its own shape and proceed at its own speed. This summer. Perry will evaluate student response to the class to decide where change is needed. So far, he has found that • f A I WHO PROVIDES LOW-COST PRESCRIPTION DRUGS? —continued from page 1— ... more guidance is required to help papers, that students write additional reading groups could boost students’ interest, and that a format providing for more discussion might be worked out. Perry radiates enthusiasm as he describes his plans for “Theatrical America.” He hopes to avoid setting a rigidly cast mold. Instead, he wants to keep a spontaneity and flexibility needed to allow change. He states it simply: “All good courses should change.” The Spectrum is published Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the academic year and on Friday only The during the summer by Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc.

The Buffalo “Friends” began their support efforts last week with a bake sale in Squire Hall center lounge, while a few individuals with huge signs- asked for money outside. Of the estimated 2000 people who occupied the site under the name of the Clamshell Alliance, 1400 were peaceably arrested by policemen and state troopers and bussed off to local National Guard armories. Most of the protesters refused bail, set at $500 for out-of-state residents. Direct contact maintained Fifteen persons from Buffalo, including thirteen students and faculty members from this University, are among the 145 occupants of the Summersworth Armory, located in Summersworth, New Hampshire. As of Friday, four of those from Buffalo, Bill Burton, Charles Haynie, Mark Pettitt and Brian Webster, had been sentenced to 15 days and a $100 fine. Trials will be held for several others at the end of May. Those sentenced were convicted of criminal trespass, a Class A misdemeanor. Haynie, an instructor with Tolstoy College, called The Spectrum from the one phone inside the Armory and said that as many as 240 people had been held in custody by Summersworth police in a 70 by 100 foot area of the armory before preliminary hearing began on Tuesday. He also said that many of the protesters $100 fine that he had been received the same 15 days handed down. - Information Center One supporter at the table in the Center Lounge said that she and others have been maintaining direct contact with the arrested individuals, calling them every day at their-own expense. In contrast to the cheery scene aired on the eleven o’clock news of people being in the sun and tossing frisbees, supporters here have been told that “conditions are terrible, food is inadequate and no provision has been made for those who don’t eat meat.” In addition, some inmates have begun hunger strikes and nightly screaming vigils. The students at the center'lounge table said that so far, “We think student support has been very good,” in direct reference to the amount of money raised. They also felt that an increasing number of students were becoming aware of the situation. An information center, at telephone number 836-2991, has been set up to handle all matters concerning the release of those arrested from Buffalo. Another number to call connected with NYPIRG is 838-1184. Volunteers are needed to sit at the Center Lounge tables and collect money elsewhere. The following people from Buffalo were arrested and are now in the Summersworth Armory in New Hampshire: Teresa Beynart, Bill Burton, Gary Cutler, Gary Gleba, Charles Haynie, Kirsten Marshall, Alex Van Oss, Mark Pettitt, Beth Phillips, Paul Richmond, Charles Salamone, Hyman Selrochter, Lenny Skrill, Brian Webster and Sue Wendel. Brett Kline SA survey Sub Board ranks funding top priority Sub Board —. student corporation and athletics are funding among students, according to a survey by the Student Association (SA) Financial the — considered a priority for recently conducted Priorities Committee. However, service organizations like the Community Action Corps (CAC) were only moderately approved by students and reaction to small clubs and special interest groups was neutral or slightly negative. This year’s survey followed largely the same forihat as did the survey conducted in 1974-75. In order to obtain non-biased results and to determine where student priorites lie, a computer random sample of 2000 undergraduate students was chosen. Due to some problems, only 1800 questionnaires were actually sent out Of those, 43 percent were returned. According to the report, “No one person was involved in any two consecutive phases of this operation.” Thus, none of the tabulations were changed in any way, something which the Financial Assembly was accused of doing in the past. In interpreting the results the Assembly advised that groups most approved of should be strongly supported by allocating resources needed to fulfill their objectives. Those given moderate approval, the Assembly said, should receive an adequate amount of money and those which were not met with enthusiasm should be carefully scrutinized to ensure that they are being allocated funds to carry out only those objectives which the Assembly feels are valid. The results of the survey show a definite need for a change in the usual budget allotments. Dennis Delia said he is concerned that the survey report will be looked upon as a direct attack on small clubs, especially on the special interest groups which received the lowest possible student ratings. A needed role It is difficult for SA to continue to subsidize activities in which there is relatively little participation, according to Delia. The removal of some clubs, Delia said, would fly in the face of criticism from a majority of students who want more activities in general. Special interest groups have a reputation for being outspoken about their groups’ needs and validity. Members of the Financial Priorities Committee claimed “Regardless of the findings, these groups should receive some funding. We feel that the argument that they fulfill a needed role in the University is a valid one.” However, much controversy on this issue is expected. Barring any complications that might arise, the Financial Assembly committee will hold its first meeting in the Fillmore Room, Monday, at 4 p.m., and will continue to meet throughout the week. T. P.

GSA held over; continues today Fee referendum Due to a light turnout during the scheduled week of balloting, the GSA Mandatory Fee referendum will be extended until Friday, May 13th. “This will enable a larger and more representative vote.” according to GSA Student Affairs Vice President Mjchael Sartisky. 900 graduate students have voted, but in many To date, departments where the students seldom visit their offices, the voting was virtually non-exisfent. ■ » GSA leaders hope that the additional time will enable these people to get to their departments and vote. Additional efforts will be made in the next week to contact GSA Senators and Club Presidents to urge them to canvass their departments and turn out the vote. If it is deemed necessary, the GSA Executive Committee will call as many of the graduate students as possible. Perhaps the greatest problem which has been encountered in the is the geographic separation of The 80 Graduate Departments. This has made the distribution and collection of ballots extremely difficult. Added to- this problem is the fact that some departments, such as Speech Communications, are in transit between campuses as Ridge Lea is phased out, making them difficult to locate. referendum Many of the departments in the Faculty of Education, some of which number between two and three.hundred students, virtually never see their graduate students, who work during the day and often attend night classes. This Faculty accounts for almost 20 percent of the graduate student population. The referendum will decide the future of the GSA; should the mandatory collection of fees not be ratified, the organization will virtually cease to exist. “At a university where students too often find their rights and paid little heed by administrators and faculty,” Sartisky said, “it is crucial that students support an organization to represent those rights and needs. It took years for student governments to become established and accepted within the universities, even now student representation on committees is often only advisory, and always in insufficient numbers.” Sartisky said that while the GSA fights for greater representation on these committees, such as the presently seated Bunn Committee on TAs and GAs, “it would be ironic if the students themselves did not approve the collection of the very funds which'make such representation possible.” interests Sartisky explained the diffusion of departments and the lack of any centralizing contact between them makes the existence of the GSA “absolutely necessary.” Steve-Shanley, GSA External Affairs Vice President, said GSA is the only organization which provides contact between departments and which assures that the interests of all graduate students are represented. He added that elimination of the GSA will cause the utter isolation of graduate students within their individual departments and consequently will weaken the effectiveness of their opinions and concerns.” Regulations set on upkeep of dorm refrigerating units A proposal for student use of refrigerators in the dorms was drafted Thursday at a meeting of the Student Association (SA). HUB, and representatives from the University administration. The proposal was a compromise move by the students to allow the continued use of large size units by residents. The set of rules presented to the committee by Director of Student Affairs Paui Glauber contained the provisions that no unit using the refrigerants sulfur dioxide or ammonia will be permitted. This type of cooling system was discontinued almost twenty five years ago, but some units using these chemicals are still available. The danger of the use ot these refrigerants was evidenced when Clement Hall was evacuated due to leakage of poisonous gas from these old units. The second provision deals with the inspection, registration, and transportation of refrigerators to be Vised in the dorms. All refrigerators must be inspected before they can be brought into the residence halls. The inspection will be done in conjunction with SA, IRC, and Environmental Health and Safety (EHS). Inspections will follow the guidelines set by Robert Hunt, EHS Director. Checklist These guidelines include checking for vermin infestation. Insects are often found in the compressor housing, and fumigation of each unit will also be required. Electrical wiring will be checked, and electrical cords should be pliable and have no cracks. Plugs and cord insulation will also be inspected for problems. All temperature control knobs, dials Of switches must be present and functional. Ammonia and sulfur dioxide cooling systems will not be passed, and door gaskets will be checked for effective seals. This eliminates condensation and minimizes running time thus saving energy. Of course, all units will be checked for cleanliness. Brad Koshar of IRCB questioned who will make the inspections. If members of student organizations check the units they might be inclined to let by friends, he fears. Koshar suggested that members of HHS perform the task. Len Snyder, Assistant Vice President for Housing, stated that EHS has neither the time nor manpower to do it and suggested instead that he would look into the possibility of trained EHS Resident Advisors doing the inspection. Along with the RA’s would be IRC' representatives. SA would assist in spraying, registering and engraving of the units. Moving Refrigerators must be moved through specific corridors and pathways. These routes will be looked into by Richard Cudek, Director of Housing Custodial Services, and reported to the committee next week. Inspection stations will be present on all three campuses, with extensive hours being set up the first three days pf checkin. At. each station will be equipment dollies to be used exclusively for refrigerator moving. These dollies will be loaned out for a fee of about fifty cents to cover their rental. All units larger than 3.0 cu. ft. must be transported on these dollies. In addition all units must be moved with padded covers to protect against damage: to walls and elevators. Any student who fails to have his/her refrigerator inspected will have that unit confiscated by maintenance at a cost to-the individual. The unit will only be returned after an inspection has been made. The use of RA’s as inspectors facilitates matters, because all a student will have to do is report to their RA the purchase of a unit and will livable to have that unit inspected immediately. Students must remove and dispose of theirs refrigerators at the end of the school year. Those who do not will be charged thirty dollars for maintenance to do so. Although some of these rules might prove an to dorm students, IRC and SA officials stressed that they were needed to insure the safety and continued use qf refrigerators in residence inconvenience halls.

Apparently, referring to WYSL’s Mr. Sound-Off Spots, Liggett replied, “1 like what they’re doing at that station.” Minus the hype and volume of those editorials Liggett would like to have short, one to three minute broadcasts aired service throughout the day on WBUF. When asked about any perceivable differences as to music broadcasting currently heard on “The Brady replied, current BUF format is the same now as it was 9 months to a year WBUF, that the staff is more closely now.” The addition of the “Weekend Feature Artist” and various giveaway contests are Brady’s ideas; he intimated that the future buyer .Liggett had nothing to do with them.

Page five �Exams on the Sabhath To the Editor: Vote no The severe weather this winter has made the University schedule finals on a Jewish holiday, Shavuos, the holiday celebrating the giving of the Torah (Five Books of Moses)., This holiday comes out on Monday, May 23 and Tuesday, May 24 which is in the middle of finals week. The University also continues to give finals on Saturday, our Sabbath. (This has forced me to take my two finals at a different time.) Would the University have the chutzpa (absurdity) to give exams on Sunday? 1 guess .not so that my fellow non-Jewish students won’t miss praying, or hearing the choir at the church or even just taking their day of rest. The University probably does not realife that Jews have a day of rest on Saturday. I can not imagine that they would do something like this on purpose!?! Now to the most important issue. Rosh Hashanah (the Jewish New Year) and Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement and Holiest Day of the Year). They are still several months away and the University has plenty of time to decide on including these days as holidays in our school calendar so' that Jewish students won’t have to miss classes 3 days i because of their religious beliefs. They can thereby relax and pray on their holidays the same way everyone prays on their holidays not having to worry about, class time missed. If the school remains open those days it pressures students to attend classes against their religious beliefs because they feel they cannot miss the work. More important, no amount of make-up notes is equal to attending class. Some instructors may find the make-up requirement a nuisance and will want to put as little effort as possible into giving make-up work. How many and how willing are teachers to arrange for students to get make-up labs? How many teachers will hold a grudge? Probably not many, but one is enough, to warrant serious (not nominal) consideration as well as action by the administration. The only action being that of avoiding an extremely possible and already existing situation. There is no other solution but the cancellation of classes on these days. The point of all of this, is that we are living in the United States where there is suppose to be freedom of religion. When will the State University of New York at Buffalo grant students this right? It has already been granted at the other three SUNY centers (Stony Brook, Albany, Binghamton) and over 4 Congressmen, 10 State Senators and 20 Assemblymen so far have expressed support and additional letters of support in the future are To the Editor. * (JUAB requests that all students support the by present form of Student Association government Monday, on be held voting NO on the referendum to Hall. and Tuesday, May 9 and 10, 1977 in Norton Inc., I, Although UUAB is a Division of Sub-Board from the majority of the funding is received The Student Wide Judiciary has ruled that the student government for course credit issue should be brought up for referendum.

Levinson has promised the student body a full and complete course description of what will replace the present SA if this referendum passes. This was stated in more than one of his editorials in The Spectrum. Levinson told me this description would appear in The Spectrum immediately after Easter vacation. Will this information appear in The Spectrum the day we are supposed to vote on the issue?

Pat Ryan As a group we are thrilled Jesse Stauber that the construction Rita Tomaszewski Todd Weisman �United States also thought the fast breeder reactor (plutonium) was the path to unlimited energy. The change was abrupt. Now the strongest doubts have arisen commercial doubts, not environmental or military doubts. The cycle is too expensive, it is believed. Experts who say this are not against nuclear power; they think nuclear power is here to stay. There are about 400 so-called thermal reactors actually operating, or building, in the world today. But the fast breeder reactor, turning uranium U238 into plutonium is a doubtful economic bet;’ it is enormously expensive to build and its electricity can’t compete with electricity from other power TRB - Intramural foul play . To the Editor I am writing this letter concerning this year’s past intramural program (basketball) at U.B., which was inadequate and showed favoritism towards a specific team. The intramural establishment took away all the fun of intramural basketball with this absurdity. The establishment gave partiality towards one team, which I will keep anonymous at the present time. This team was also given a lighter schedule than the other teams to their obvious advantage. Despite these discriminations and injustices, the Boss Players still prevailed to eventually conquer the U.B. intramural championship. The Intramural Department of the State University of New York at Buffalo, failed to inform the Boss Players in adequate time of a Western New York Schlitz Malt Liquor Intramural Basketball Tournament of Champions at Brockport State College. A letter was sent to U.S.’s Intramural Director on March 7, of a tournament on April 23rd. We, the Boss Players, were notified on April 18th, of the tournament. We had no time to organize practices or rides. Is this justice or what? Most of the other schools that participated in the tournament were given adequate transportation by their respective schools. But not U.B. The players were forced to supply their own means of transportation to the tournament. Only five players made it to the game. Our teams consisted of about eleven players and this was not a true representation of our squad or our school. Is this how the intramural program here should be run, with this “foul play?” M. K. Bridges N. Jones Mr. Tan replies . . . The United States was right, France and England wrong, when America refused to go ahead with the supersonic marvel of the age, the Concorde. Sure the Concorde is swift, but it has disagreeable environmental faults and worse, from a commercial viewpoint, it has an inadequate payload. Some still aren’t convinced, but most American engineers are delighted wed popped it. Now today, in the same way, we think President Carter is right, most of Europe wrong, in his rejection of the so-called fast-breeder reactor. This is enormously more important than the Concorde. Theoretically the reactor could dpen the way to limitless energy in a fuel-starved world. It is so complicated that it is almost impossible to comprehend but, on paper at least, the process is a kind of perpetual motion energy machine: it bums up a type of waste-product nuclear fuel and in the act produces more fuel than it burns up. Who could ask for more? World leaders are like little boys at Christmas: visions of sugarplums dance through their heads. The problem is that what is technically feasible may not be commercially valuable. So we have this extraordinarily dramatic 1977 confrontation: Mr. Carter, a nuclear engineer, has just shelved or scrapped proposed American breeder reactors costing billions with more billions scheduled, while France, West Germany, and half a dozen other European countries are scrambling to amass billions to build them and, more than that, to export them, and know-how, to less technically advanced countries so that they can have an independent, limitless supply of energy. West Germany is doing that for Brazil; France for Pakistan. President Carter is at the summit conference in Europe trying to explain his seemingly outrageous views to the leaders of the Western alliance and Japan. They are reportedly distrustful and angry. He has one advantage; he is an Annapolis nuclear engineer and served once on a nuclear submarine; he can understand the complex lingo without an interpreter. To the Editor: In view of the many misinterpretations made of a published letter of mine by ‘A Chinese Student in U.B.’ The Spectrum, May 4, 1977), warrant me making the following clarifications. Firstly, the good intent of the letter (The Spectrum, April 29, 1977) was solely to bring Dr. Joseph Williams’ attention to the current trend of development of the U.S.-China relations. Therefore, it was purely informational and not, by itself, political. Secondly, the letter was simultaneously published so that all concerned members of this University community, who have been strongly favoring the respectful spirit of the Shanghai Communique, could be informed of such an intent that has been actually conveyed to Dr. Williams, who as a university foreign student and scholar consultant, should be in the first place aware of such a recent development of the international affairs that the continued KMT surveillance and intimidation activities should not be tolerated on this campus. Thirdly, the letter was signed on behalf of the China Study Group-GSA by me as a chairman, as well as an active member of the listed groups of which, to the best of my knowledge, a great majority of the constituency has to date achieved to such a high level of understanding of the international affairs that in fact surmounts the level of recent development of the U.S.-China relations. It therefore merely reflected'’an advanced understanding of such a situation on behalf of the abovesaid constituents. Lastly, I hope that the above clarifications will suffice justifying most, if not all, of the This is pretty dramatic, but there is another, darker, more dangerous side to it. Most Americans are still probably foggy about it; it is almost certain that many of the peaceful protestors at Seabrook, N.H. (the delightfully named “Clamshell Alliance”) don’t understand it. There are two kinds of nuclear reactors. One kind uses enriched uranium for fuel and is reasonable disassociated from weaponry; it is conventional and housebroken. The other kind is used in the breeder reactors and takes plutonium, a man-made product that is probably the most toxic stuff on earth a driblet will kill you, and 10 pounds in a bomb will blow up Chicago. A nation that builds or buys a breeder reactor that will produce plutonium from enriched uranium (U238) is - on its way to making nuclear weopons. The President is doing what he can to stop it. the as recently as Nixon A few years ago — sources. Some of the idealistic protestors at Seabroqk, N.H. and elsewhere make no distinction, it appears, in denouncing nuclear reactors; they are against all kinds, and the nuclear age, too, apparently. I am afraid they are too late. Australian nuclear physicist Stuart Butler, who received a prize from the American Physical Society here last week, agrees with President Carter, The fast breeder reactor, he tells me, is “at a critical point in its development. The industrialized nations are poised, but not yet committed, to embark on a massive commercial development program.” He’s against it; he thinks Jimmy Carter can still head them off. With two colleagues he has written a popular-style book, widely influential in Australia, that may soon be re-printed here: “Uranium on Trial.” “We are totality opposed to the introduction of breeder reactors for power production at this stage,” it says. Wait a bit, the authors wage: maybe this monster plutonium will be harnessed in time and put to the plough, but-Pot yet: the thermal reactors, they say, “is the only type of reactor that we believe is suitable for use in the world today.” If the layman is still groping for confirmation, and searching for some other authority in this nightmare world, he will find Professor Butler’s verdict from Australia confirmed almost word-for-word by the Ford Foundation’s newly published study, “Nuclear Power Issues and Choices” (Ballinger paperback). The study is by a 21-member blue ribbon panel. It urges delay in plutonium breeders for urgent reasons of safety and economics. True, the study agrees, other countries are pursuing such breeders France, West Germany, the United Kingdom, Japan and the Soviet Union. Some are having success. But, says the report, “being first with a technological development program does not always mean success in economic or other terms since technical success must be matched to real needs. The supersonic transport provides a contemporary example.” Yes, the Concorde. My hunch is that whatever President Carter and supporters try to do, the fight to prevent nuclear proliferation has been lost. Enrico Fermi in Chicago in 1942 produced the first chain reaction, and 35 years later we face,a prospect so blood-curdling that we prefer not to notice it. Bomb power is spreading. Last week there were these stories; two hundred tons of uranium oxide were diverted nine years ago in a vessel and nobody knows where they went was it Israel? South Africa may be developing nuclear weapons at a secret hideaway. The General Accounting Office tells Congress that commercial nuclear facilities can’t-account for “thousands of pounds” of highly enriched plutonium and uranium. Delegates of 60 nations at Salzburg hear that 102 nations have now accepted the Non-proliferation Treaty; fine, except that some 50 nations haven’t, including France, Argentina and Brazil. Defense Secretary Harold Brown smilingly told me the other day that no one Princeton undergraduate could make a bomb; but 100 undergraduates, with access to fissionable material, very possibly could. - — misunderstandings which have been unfortunately conceived by the anonymous Chinese student here at U.B.

The Spectrum . Monday, 9 May 1977 m �Discrimination Editor's Note Statistics reveal hiring bias against Puerto Ricans here The special section of The Spectrum that begins on this page is comprised of submissions from minority students. These articles are being published to facilitate dialogues and understanding between minority and white students at this University. While this section is primarily written by Puerto Rican students, we would like to encourage for future issues contributions from black, Native American and Asian students. The rationale behind this section are two. First, we hope to work toward the goal of ensuring regular minority participation to make The Spectrum more representative of the student bod. Second, we wish to bring attention, if only indirectly, to the problems of race and racism at this University. These articles are offered as a small step toward improving relations between white and minority students here. The New York State Commission on Civil has repprted a hiring bias against Puerto Ricans and other Latins in the overall SUNY system. Although Acting SUNY Chancellor James F. Kelly denied the findings regarding the situation at SUNY Buffalo, the commission’s statistics reveal Rights discrimination. Puerto Ricans find college a hard goal by Tamara Ferrer Higher education is becoming increasingly unattainable for Puerto Ricans living in New York City. The first stumbling block in the way of a college education for Puerto Ricans is tuition fee of hundreds of dollars; an amount that Puerto Rican families are realistically pay unable to considering the present economic situation. The average Puerto Rican family, in fact, can only contribute some $625 towards the total college education of a child, according to a 1974-75 national study by conducted the Educational Testing Service. Lack of information about financial aid programs is another City barrier, educational University of New York (CUNY) officials recently announced. This, they indicate, is due to a decrease in high school counselors, many of whom have been assigned to other duties or have been fired by the Board of Education. Student motivation to go to cpllege has also been affected by dwindling job market, the particularly for minority groups. As the Directs of the Office of Admissions and Services for CUNY, recently stated, “They see that their brothers and sisters who have degrees can’t \get jobs, so why should they bother?” Higher than average As a result, CUNY has experienced an overall population decrease of 50,000 students. An —continued on page IQ— In 1974, of a total of 3,967 jobs, there were 13 Hispanic males and 6 females for a total of 0.48 percent Hispanics at SUNYAB. In 1975, of a total 5,448 jobs, there were 18 Hispanics males and 13 females for a 0.57 percent participation by Hispanics. In 1976, of a total of 6,979 jobs, Hispanic males had 17 and Hispanic females 14 for a total participation of 0.46. There are no available figures prior to 1974, but the pattern is clear. Of an additional 1,481 jobs at the University in 1975, Hispanics got only 12. In 1976, of an additional 1,231 jobs on campus, Hispanics got none. Puerto Rican Studies Support for Puerto Studies, Rican financial aid, graduate student undergraduate assistantships, and undergraduate student activities reveals a pattern of systematic reductions by at least 70 percent from an original commitment to Puerto Ricans. Puerto Rican Studies and Research Center offers students a program of interdisciplinary study leading to either an undergraduate or graduate degree in American Studies under the Faculty of Arts and Letters. As an integral part of the Puerto Rican Studies and Research Center, this University has an extension program in San Juan, affiliated to the Institute de Cultura Ifuprtorriquena. Puerto Rican Studies is conceived as a strategy for the survival of Puerto Rican students at the university and Puerto Rican cultural consciousness in the world. Conventional approaches to the Puerto Rican historical process have led to middle-class domination, with the resulting deformations in the Pedro Albizu Campos (1891—1964) earned Doctor of Law and Doctor of Philosophy degrees and was an engineer. A graduate from Harvard and Vermont, he was Puerto Rico's greatest leader in it's fight for national independence. interpretations of the Puerto Rican experience. Contemporary Puerto Rican culture is viewed from the, perspective of emerging forms (bilingualism, biculturalism, the mainland U.S. experience) and the historical attempt by the Puerto Rican people to achieve an individualized national personality free from interdictions. As a communication workshop the program has been set up to create viable alternative forms of analysis and expression. Education is attractive as a new tool for survival The main attraction for Puerto Rican students achieving a higher education is the strong possibility for attainment of a new and different survival tool. “We would rather be here than on the unemployment line,” one student said. As far as first, second, and third generation Latinos are concerned, college has been an unaffordable luxury for the privileged few. Wfthin the last ten years it has become an assumption that education is the right of every human being. This resulted from mass marches and student militancy of the sixties and early seventies. All the activity, on behalf of human rights (both violent and non-violent) proved that the United States’ most powerful institutions were racist vehicles used to oppress minorities economically, educationally and culturally. Numerable types of “social reform” programs were developed to alleviate, but not correct, the problems faced by minorities in this country. Politicians were into allocating monies the development for of educational programs aimed at increasing the enrollment of blacks and Puerto Ricans in universities. According to an article published by The Reporter April 28th, entitled, “College-Going Rate is Level,” data supplied by the census bureau indicates only the number of students enrolled but not the acceptance figures.

Survival at the University The problems faced by Puerto Ricans attending a university for the first time are not much different than those of any other freshmen. But who is better capable Of surviving within a university system? The majority of white students went to high schools in “good neighborhoods,” live in comparatively stable homes while only a few are “culturally deprived” people, but only to the extent that we are born in this country only to be deprived by the educational system of our language. This process only serves to alienate and contuse the Puerto Rican people. Alienation To add to the alienation of Puerto Rican students we are thrown into a university system that does not respect cultural-communication differences. Universities have tended to perpetuate ignorance misunderstanding by and neglecting to acknowledge or provide adequate cross-cultural College courses. educational administrators, professors and supposedly progressive university student organizations refuse to implement or involve themselves in an attempt to improve inter cultural many communication programs. Fear and ignorance are the very agents of continued misunderstanding and the price to be paid is one of self-suppression. Most Puerto Ricans born and raised in the slums of this country adopted style a of have (verbal and communication non-verbal) similar to that of black people. This is because Puerto Ricans and Blacks occupy the same tenement and neighborhood. Communication is historically unavoidable, necessary because it becomes a way of life. actual aggression between the two groups. An analysis made by Dr. Francisco Pabon, founder and Assistant Director of the Puerto Rican Studies Department, at this University indicates racial prejudice amongst Puerto Ricans is based on shade discrimination conducive to the Puerto Rican who i? black, but does not want to be. Pabon adds that the racial thing of blacks in America has created a rather self-centered condition which is very hard to break. This may explain why blacks and Puerto Ricans are not as “together” as they should be. American and Puerto Rican blacks share a common African cultural heritage. After many revolts by Taino Indians against intruding Spaniards insurmountable losses led to the enslavement of the Indians. To compensate for the losses of a dwindling population of slaves, the Spaniards imported African slaves. Through enslavement an agricultural economy developed. The, Taino inhabitants had been practically eliminated by 1511. The process of slavery was clearly to destroy the culture of the slave and the sense of self. In attempting to destroy the culture, the colonizing countries felt that the slaves would not struggle to be free. Uiiity commonalities create is the phenomenon of the Puerto Rican who walks, talks and acts black. For all practical purposes the Puerto Rican jg, culturally black. In many universities where there are black and Puerto Rican student organizations concerned with social change, there exists What these Since the Tainos (arawaks) and Africans worked together in the the same in fields, lived communities and intermarried, they maintained certain aspects of bot-t cultures in their religious practices, traditions and art forms. They kept these hidden from their oppressors to ensure their own survival, as well as that of their past. Monday, 9 May 1977 . The Spectrum . Page nine �Loss of essence?

I wonder. Julia de Burgos (1918—1953), a Puerto Rican schoolteacher, achieved wide acclaim as one the the greatest poetesses of America with her universal mood and profoundly Puerto Rican content. Puerto Rican women struggle for survival by Zoraida Bourdon de Baez Through the ages, the Puerto Rican woman has become a “great survivor.” Why, do ybu ask? What i's'it that she has survived? Let us look back (o the beginning with the Tainos Indians. These people were described as “copper-colored, with black course straight hair, high cheek bones, and with eyes that were black and oblique.” Their women were considered beautiful, wise and very much admired by many men. At the time Christopher Columbus found Borinquen (Puerto Rico) he was led by Taino women who had been captured by the Tainos ancestral enemies, the Caribs. These women actually led Columbus back to their island, though it has been denied, without any so-called navigational skills, and yet they knew where to go. The Spaniards, colonized Borinquen and unfortunately destroyed the Tainos with harsh labor, killings and wars. The women survived through intermarriage with the black slaves, who were brought to work on the island, and the Spaniards. With the colonization of Puerto Rico, the “native” Puerto Rican women were not able to wear beautiful dresses or be courted by handsome nobles, as were the women of the upper class. They had only the farms to think about; the beginning of another hard day and the constant fear of the Spanish soldiers, who would try to abuse them. And yet, these women survived the strife and suffering through generations of extermination and intermarriage. The Taino heart has remained strong and true. The years went by, the owners of the land changed, and promises were made of better tomorrows. One of these promises was called “Operation Bootstrap.” With the change of the economy from agriculture to industry, women were now working in factories. There was probably nothing exciting or new about this work, but the women made a little more money. Many welcomed the job; especially if they were the head of the household or her husband could not find a job. Then, the Puerto Rican people were told that they should migrate to New York, were they would be paid better wages, live in better housing and attend better schools. With that, women as well as men went to New York hoping to make enough money so that they could return to their homelands. Some did return, but others did not. Of those that remained, there is still hope of returning. The jobs really were not in abundance and the hardships of weather, assimilation and prejudice were strong, but the Puerto Rican women withstood the name-calling, the abusive landlords, the poor housing, the rats, the roaches and the sexually abusive employers. Many had almost been convinced that in order for them and their children to survive, they had to learn to speak only English. But not even assimilation could touch what was inside, which could never ever be erased This in itself is not a complete history of the Puerto Rican woman. She was not only a mother, but a survivor of an attempt at genocide S, through the unexplained and coerced sterilization of her by the power Structure. The Puerto Rican woman is a proud woman proud of her heritage and proud of her people. Page ten . The Spectrum . Monday, 9 May 1977 Foreigners?

"I total destruction of our most to get by in this system? I wonder WONDER.” College —continued from page 9— .. A recent report presented by a special post secondary education commission to New York Hugh Carey Governor 1976 study conducted by the New York State Education Department reported that Puerto Rican applicants to senior and community colleges had decreased by 51 and 21 percent respectively. Both figures exceed the average, the study noted. But even if Puerto Ricans enter the CUNY system, their chances of obtaining a college degree remain rather slim, according to the study. CUNY statistics show that there is a larger percentage of Puerto Rican students in CUNY’s two-year community colleges than in the more prestigious four-year institutions. As a result, Puerto Rican community college students have become the victims of high-handed maneuvers to save the senior colleges. April • \ Having monetary problems? recommended a division of the university system to bring the four senior colleges (Hunter, Queens, Brooklyn, City) under the protection of the state government. The four would then escape the city’s financial woes. Private up, public down But even if that proposal does not go into effect, community college students have already been affected by a recent Board of Higher Education decision. The board rules that out of town state residents could pay the same tuition fee as city residents attending senior colleges. For Puerto Ricans, this would - more undoubtedly mean competition from better-educated suburban students. Moreover, private educational receiving institutions are increasing state aid at a time when CUNY was hit with a $68 million budget cut. Although 63 percent of the state’s students attend public colleges, approximately 50 percent of the $172 million in state tuition grants will go to private colleges. What does all this mean? For Puerto Ricans it means the loss of a right which was fought for and won back in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s. Why is this happening and what can be done about it? We will try to answer those questions in future articles.

S. stifles minority values by Norman Aybar For quite some time Puerto Ricans have been coming to the United States. They do it to escape the prevailing oppression on the island. Puerto Ricans suffer from lack of jobs, lack of opportunities, arid bad working and living conditions. The fact, however, is that they come to the United States to find themselves also oppressed and exploited by the very same people they have been trying to escape from. The conditions they find in the United States are not so different from the conditions on some cases, the island. In conditions are worse. After all, there, one is with his own people! Puerto Rican people in the United States are not considered “citizens.” They are treated as foreigners and in the worst cases as “negroes.” Many are aware of their nationality and race for the first time, because they are faced with ope of the United States’ major problems, social discrimination due to racism. If they ever decide to come back to the island they are surprised to be considered “Newyoricans.” Many do not realize to what extent they have been assimilated over the years into the “American way of life” until they face the common realities of a Latin American and Antillian country. It is very difficult for many to keep their culture, habits, customs, and language due to the very nature of American society and its negation of minorities and their values. Deep-rooted heritage Despite all that, Puerto Ricans, as well as native American,.have a cultural heritage much older than white Americans. Puerto Ricans have their ,language, their culture, their literaty traditions, their values, and they know who they are and where they are coming from. We have a very deep sense of community, of belonging to a large group of which we form part of. We have close ties that go beyond those of the family group. As a matter of fact, we still have a different sense of family'which is just restricted not to a mother/father relationship. We have not yet lost the value of sharing. Our refrain has always been, “donde come uno comen diez” (If there is food for one there is also for ten). The old and the sick are not abandoned in those horrible senior citizens’ homes. And, in gene'ral, a Puerto Rican without a job, or hunted by the police expects to get a hand from his own people. However, here in the United States, Puerto Ricans are pressured from the social environment to accept the American slogan which reads, “defiendete por tu cuenta,” (take care of yourself). Questionable values The problem is to continue thinking that it is because of those differences that the ethnic minorities suffer because of their own “ways.” It is necessary to question the “values” that are ascribed to the majority and see how they manifest themselves institutionally, culturally, and also in day to day life. There is a general assumption that it is the American majority fhat preserves and defends “civilization” and that this justifies keeping the minorities in check. However, this does not hold water if we look at the issue closely. The racism that exists in the United States is a clear example of the failure of the system to gain any validity from any standpoint nobody would — publicly defend racism, with the exception of a few nazis. Puerto Ricans are particularly affected by this form of racism because it is not unusual to find within a family “white, black” mixed. In Puerto Rico, the concept of minority is based on race and has been traditionally. non-existent they find the problem difficult to deal with. The problems become - more complex when they cannot be taken as “white” or “black” and are isolated from both. To make matters even worse the idea of belonging to a minority group is ultimately . alien to a Puerto Rican. Our 450 years of history and experience tells every single one of us that we are not a minority group or even a group which is only one part of a larger one. We are not a part, but a totality, not a group, but a nation, the Puerto Rican Nation.

Lower wages Even after, elections were scheduled at the J.P. Stevens plant in Roanoke Rapids, N.C: to see if the majority of the workers wanted a union, the company tried to pit the black and white workers against one another. One white woman worker said: “They tried to make us think it was going to be a black union. But they were just trying to get the white people not to join the union. It didn’t work. People are smarter than they think they are.” A manufacturing worker in North Carolina made an average of $59.96 less per week than the national average in November 1976, according to a University of North Carolina study. As-long as blacks and whites fight among themselves, neither will be able to make the gains they could make if they worked together. Student unity In February .of this year, students at the State University of New York (SUNY) system, who are predominantly white, and students from the City University of New York (CUNY) system, who are predominantly black and of other minority groups, united at the Conference to Defend Higher Education around a common • program to stop all cutbacks at both educational ' systems. It will now be more difficult for the state to use racism to divide and weaken the students and faculty in New York State, in their opposition to cutbacks in cheap labor on the plantation permanently, so they instituted slavery in the 1660s. Since the planters could not enslave all workers, they singled out only common goals education In the 1960s, many one small group based on skin color those of African legal — defense organizations were either all white or all nlack. In 1672, the National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression was from the founded, evolving Defense Angela Davis uniting defense Committees, organizations of all races and nationalities into one broad coalition: nationality. ‘Outstanding achievements’ In order to justify this enslavement, plantation the owners created the false ideology of racism. They said that black people were inferior and incapable of taking care of themselves. Then by denying blacks education, they could point to their illiteracy as Multi-racial Likewise, young people in the political left in the 1960s, were primarily organized onp the basis of separate organizations for whites and blacks. Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) was practically an all white organization. Black youth worked with the Black Panther Party, the Black Student Unions, or similar groups, that were formed across the country. While it is true that black and white young people worked together in organizations, such as the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), it is often on a basis of inequality and paternalism. However, by 1970, many black and white youths talked of the necessity to work in a united organization. Former members of SDS, the Black Panther Party, Unions, Black Studend independent socialists and young members pf the Communist party, formed a national multi-racial Marxist youth organization, the Young Workers Liberation League (YWLL). The YWLL has a black chairman, . a Puerto Rican Executive Secretary, a white Educational Director and minorities comprise. half of its nation-wide membership. The , ideology of racism developed in colonial America around the middle and end of the 17th century.

They claim that racism is over and then hack the “right” of the KKK and the Na/i Party to parade in the streets. These are not humane policies. There is a moral problem here.

Allen proceeded to file with the National Labor Relations Board as to unfair practices regarding his termination. Brady observed that the “Board did not find cause to go to a hearing on this matter.” This was not, in fact, true. When Lawrence Gross of the Board was contacted, he said, “The Board did not take up the matter because Allen removed his from the Board’s complaint CHARLIE’S Men’s Hair Styling at Across from Goodyear UNIVERSITY PLAZA presidents; Charles Fall and Constantine Yeracaris. 20% DISCOUNT Refreshments will be served with this ad office.” Allen said he removed the complaint because he felt he could not win the suit against “BUF’s big money and lawyers.” Allen felt incensed by his dismissal, but moreover, saw Liggett as selling BUF out and turning the station’s format into one programming Top Forty music. Allen moved to form a protest group against Liggett at Buffalo’s International Airport'c5n Easter Sunday. Allen contended that Liggett avoided him. As to this matter, Liggett observed, “I didn’t know what was going on. The Cheektowaga police took me off the plane and escorted me away because they said the mob was abusive. The group apparently ran after a guy they thought was me and scared him half to death. So the police took me away. But 1 would have talked to them. 1 still will if they want to talk to me.” Captain Snyder of the Cheektowaga police said the mob 837-3111 ry gave the police a hard time and that there was no reason for the refused any protest.

He seemed to express the sentiments of the staff present at the meeting which included evening man Phil Chordas and . weekend man Phil Bashe. Although Liggett has applied on his FCC license for a maximum of 24 minutes of commercial programming per hour, he only intends to use about 9 minutes of the alloted time per hour.

Forced into the Bubble due to bad weather, the Bulls finished their dismal season by losing to Cornell 7-2. The loss left the Bulls winless in five matches this spring. Idle only bright spot in the match was Rob Gurbacki’s career ending victory. Gurbacki won the tough fought match, 3-6, 6-3, 7-6. Down 5-2 in the deciding third set, he rallied to force a tiebreaker, which he won easily, 5-2. “The match depended on who held serve,” he commented afterwards, “and after I was down I concentrated on keeping serve 1977 Buffalonian Y earhook will be available Tuesday, May 17, in the University Press office, Room 361 Squire Hall.

It worked.” The win was especially gratifying for Gurbacki because it capped his career at Buffalo. “I had been playing very poorly this spring,” he remarked. “and I wanted to go out a winner. When I did, I was very happy.” Gurbacki was so happy that he flipped himself over the net at the end of the match. However, Gurbacki’s enthusiasm did not inspire the rest of the Bulls as the lower seeds were trounced in the singles. The only other win for the Bulls was an impressive 6-0, 6-3 victory for the third doubles team of Larry Bleiberg-Dave Meyers. . But. Cole’s injury does not explain the dismal season alone. LaPenna in fact blames poor facilities. “We are playing top notch competition,” he explained, “who have practiced all winter. They have been playing since February, we start in April. They have had 20 matches under their belt by the time they play us, we play five all year.” The hopes for next year depend on a fundraising program this June. “With funds,” La Penna Injuries and practice time Cornell, other Buffalo as have done, simply the team; Bulls’ overpowered coach Tom LaPenna believes he has some reasons. “First of all we had many injuries this year. Most opponents pointed out, “we will be able to take a Southern trip next year and matches.” get those needed However, the funds,'- as every coach and athlete knows at Buffalo, are not certain. Next year is still a question mark. Marijuana -*-eonUnuecl from page 13— ... considered a Class B Misdemeanor and punishable by a $500 fine and/or up to 3 months in jail. Deletions The bill also contains higher penalties for quantities over one pound than either of the original bills. Possession of over one pound will be a Class D Felony (up to 7 years in jail) while sales over one pound will be a Class C Felony (up to 15 years in jail). Ned Cole, Counsel for Senator Barclay, felt the stricter penalties will provide the proper amount of deference. The compromise bill also deleted two parts of Gottfried’s bill. The first would have allowed for resentencing of those already in jail.’ The other section would have decriminalized growing of marijuana. Both were deleted because there was no support for them in the Senate, and Cole felt the bill would not have passed with those provisions included. The bill is expected' to pass the Democratic-controlled Assembly first with no problem, since the Democrats are behind it. It will then come up for a vote in the Senate. If the bill passes the Senate it will go to the Governor. Governor Hugh Carey has already said he would sign such a bill. Student Association of the State University (SASU) Legislative Director Joel Packer said, “It’s important that students now put pressure on their legislators. SASU will be meeting this week With those legislators who oppose the bill.” Packer went on to characterize the bill “an important step in easing the current restrictive laws,” but added that “it doesn’t go quite as far as we would prefer.

There Ask the residents of the Ellicott Complex if the possibility of a drinking problem exists there and one’s head would spin with the wide range of reactions. “Alcoholism on campus, hell no! Students just drink to have a good time.,” one student said while banging his fist on a table. ' “Yeah, people drink too much but what can you expect when every place on campus serves liquor? See for yourself,” he said, gesturing with a sweep of his arm to a group of students partying in the hall. One p artier came to the group’s defense. “Listen man, the problem with this place is that there’s too much dope and not enough booze.” Vomit and fire alarms Students living in Wilkeson Quadrangle are confronted daily by the influence of alcohol. Located directly above The Pub the dormitory takes the brunt of angry outbursts of many an intoxicated student, as evidenced by numerous holes in the walls, inoperative toilets and an , are_ often traces of vomit on the staircases in Wilkeson and residents there are plagued by false fire alarms. Bruce Wagner, a resident advisor (RA) in Wilkeson Quad, has dealt with over $340 worth of damage resulting from vandalism on his floor. This convinced him of the need to investigate drinking patterns on campus. “Students are under a lot of social and academic use alcohol as a pressure means of relieving tension,” he said. “This often leads to irresponsible behavior such as destruction of- public property.” 1 by Susan Schacter Staff Writer Spectrum Increase in drunk cases A quarter of all incident reports (a record of any unusual event that occurs in the dormitories) received by the housing office are directly related to alcohol, according to Wagner. Most students are unaware that the housing office is alloted a specific budget for repairing damages and replacing stolen property, Madison Boyce, Director of Housing, said. “If the cost of repairs excedes the budget, things don’t get fixed. Students are only hurting themselves by —Vazquez their unruly behavior,” he added. The vandalisms, although a nuisance, are the least frightening aspect of alcoholic abuse. The housing staff takes care of many alcohol related emergencies, such as respiratory problems, requiring hospitalization. One student almost bled to death during the fall semester from punching his arm through a window and other students suffered from alcoholic amnesia. There was even one suspected case of alcohol poisoning. M. Luther Musselman, Director of Health Services, said, “We’re just on the tip of the iceberg. We only receive people who are ill or a bother to their roommates. You cannot conclude from our reports whether or not there is a general drinking problem.” —continued on page 2- Some dues remain unpaid SASU opening its seventh year with a deficit The Student Association of the State University (SASU) is moving into its seventh fiscal year with a $15,000 deficit and unpaid dues from the State University Colleges at Old Westbury and Buffalo. \ SASU is a state-wide coalition of SUNY student governments, which provides services and communication for its members on a large scale. Individual SUNY student governments determine whether they will participate. Participation of a student government involves the election of delegates to represent that government, and the payment of 85 cents per Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) student enrolled on that campus. For the undergraduate Student Association (SA) at this University, the bill comes to about $11,000. At present, about two-thirds of all SUNY student governments are SASU members. According to SASU Executive Vice President Dianne Piche, SASU’s financial troubles began in the 1975-76 school year, when three member schools unexpectedly pulled out. SASU anticipates its income for each year by adding up the dues to be collected from schools which pledge to join. Piche said the State University Colleges mm opposed the formation of the Third World Caucus, a special group representing Third World students, saying that its formation constituted reverse discrimination. Several SASU members still protest the Caucus, but only the original three schools have pulled out because of it. Besides the deficit, SASU must now deal with non-payment of dues from the State University Colleges (SUC) at Old Westbury and Buffalo. SASU had planned to eradicate half of its deficit this year, but the budget has been upset by the absence of.$9,000 worth of dues from these two schools. Piche believes SUC Buffalo has the money, but is withholding for some reason. Representatives of Old Westbury say they simply do not have the money. c c^-— at Brockport and Cortland and SUNY at Brook all Stony pledged to join at SASU’s annual conference of June, 1975. Then they pulled out, after paying reduced member rates for SASU services and participating in election of SASU officials. This took a $20,000 chunk out of the $100,000 SASU budget for that year, causing the current deficit. Protesting the causus Piche said the schools left because they Piche feels SASU will not fold, but rather will simply have to weather the financial “storm,” while waiting for the dues payments. “Almost every young political organization operates with a deficit,” she said. SASU hopes to survive this year using loans and pre-payment of dues from its members. It is possible that SA on this campus will assist SASU with a loan or pre-payment this year. �Student alcoholism... student put it, “Who me? Maybe him, but never me.” Alcoholic abuse is often hidden by the wide acceptance of drinking as a social norm. If huipor reflects popular attitudes, numerous jokes about alcohol are evidence of its acceptability. Parties epitomize the social aspect of drinking. “What do you want to drink,” asks every good host the minute his guest steps in the door. According to a psychologist at Harriman Clinic, James Makenzie, problem drinking is hard to detect in a predominantly white, middle class population, such as that of the dorms here. People associate alcoholism with lower income groups and picture “a drunk” as someone lying half dead in the gutter. ■ A person’s drinking patterns are not easily distinguished until he is established in a relatively secure living situation. Student drinking habits change according Maijorie Wright, Head Nurse at Michael Hall, confirmed what Musseltnan said, and added that this last year has seen an increase of admittances to the clinic for intoxication. She said that the students they admit are usually freshmen experimenting with alcohol for the first time and are discovering their limitations. “The worst is when they mix alcohol and pills and won’t admit to it because they are frightened of the consequences,” Wright said. “This is extremely dangerous and most people are unaware of the harm they can do to themselves if they are not given immediate attention.” She stressed that whatever is said to the staff upon entering the clinic does not leave the building and that students are urged to be frank. Abuse hidden by acceptance The main problem with the use of alcohol on this campus is that there is no problem. As one —continued from page 1— to shifts in their environments, from school to home and back to school. This' disguises any developing drinking problem and activates the defense mechanism of denial. It is often heard, “In college it’s just something to do, but I’ll quit when I leave.” “I’d define a problem drinker as anyone who needs to get drunk, whether it be continuous or repetitive weekend binges,” Makenzie said. Pub enhances drinking The weekend binger is a common species around Ellicott. “Students can’t afford to drink all year long so they save up their pennies and when the weekend comes, watch out,” said Wagner. “Party, party, party... flashes like neon lights from dorm halls and the smell of sloshed beer drives away the cockroaches. The Pub becomes a centrifugal force drawing the masses to its smoke-laiden confines. Inebriated students have made had to drive off campus to drink.” The increase of alcohol use on The Pub the target of many complaints, following weekend this campus c3n be traced through reports of smashed pong machines the change of University policy and the removal of toilet fixtures pertaining to its use.

Fantasies of wild orgies and the glittenof gold brewed in students’ imaginations. “Love. Ladies and Liquor are sold in one package and dorm students make excellent customers,” said Rich Dunckel, a student currently researching campus drinking problems. “Students are in a transitional stage of their lives and proving one’s self socially is all important” Peer pressure to drink is great, especially in the dorms where students are in constant contact with one another. challenge. “What frightens me,” said Soehner, “is that now students drink to get drunk where as they used to drink to have fun.” The physical layout of Ellicott encourages this attitude. In this architectural phenomenon there is not one area designated as a social gathering place where liquor is not served.

Presently, these funds have not yet been authorized. officials at this are >that the University hopeful funds will be included in the Several Legislature’s Supplemental Budget which will be acted on this summer. Speaker of the State Assembly Stanley Steingut viewed the Bubble last Thursday. “I went into the Bubble and was terribly dismayed,” he said. “In fact, I was embarrassed. I promise you, we will add your gym to the list of needed consttuction.” Student Association (SA) President Dennis Delia will be Senate meeting with State Leader Warren Anderson Majority this weekend to discuss the Amherst Gym situation and the construction situation in general. Delia also a will being letter-writing campaign to local legislators, asking for their support. Could begin in months If the legislature authorizes the funds for the first phase of the gym in its supplemental budget to which would amount approximately $10 million, the contract would probably be bid in December, and work would commence next spring. If the funds are not appropriated until next year’s budget is passed (on March 31), it could mean a delay of several months in starting construction, since the contractor could not begin purchasing the necessary materials until after the contract was awarded. If the contractor were awarded the contract in December, he could have the necessary materials ready for the spring construction season. The gym is scheduled to be built in two phases. The first phase will include an arena with seating for 10,000 people, lockers, handball courts, classrooms and office space. The second phase will include the triple gym, squash courts, the natatorium (swimming and diving facility), more lockers and most of the offices. The two phases can function separately, and would each take about two-and-one-half to three years to be built. Delia and members of the State University Construction Fund had been considering combining the two phases of the gym into one $20 project. million large man, Mort Gass to According Assistant Vice-Chancellor of the State University Construction Fund, the project would have the advantage that only one contract and one contractor would be required, and therefore, the state might be able to have the gym built at a slightly lower cost than two with contractors. The disadvantage would be that the project would take approximately five years to build, whereas Phase I, if built alone, could be ready for use in two-and-one-half years, after the of beginning construction. development. Phase one has passed the design stage and only the working drawings of the building have to be completed. The design stage for phase two has not been started yet, and is scheduled to be completed a year after the design stage of phase one is finished.

In this interview with Spectrum Staff Writer Marshall Rosenthal, Green relates the findings and repercussions of his investigation. by Marshall Rosenthal Spectrum Staff Writer Don Bolles never lived to tell his story. But as tribute to both the man and the investigative reporter, a team of 36 American censorship. The paper has become nothing but a mouthpiece.” The purpose of the IRE investigation was not to work on the Bolles case — his murderer has already been found. The team’s energies were channeled to work on the system and structure of Arizona. Through the IRE newsletter, writers were solicited for the operation. Before the team was organized, Newsday' s organized crime expert, Tom Renner, spent four weeks under-cover in Arizoria and New Mexico building up people files. Back on Long Island, it was hot. A huge volume of material was continuously channeled to Green who spent the summer reading it all. “If you’re going to be a team leader, y(j)u better damn well know more about the subject than anyone else on your team,” he said. Green hired housewives to set up a file system, cross-indexing businesses and people. Meanwhile, reporters were coming and goipg. “There were to'o many part-timers,” said the leader. Green then established a permanent “cadre” of six reporters. Besides Green, 'Renner and Mike Wenlow of the Detroit News, the Arizona Star provided two reporters and the Arizona Republic one. The team was shaping up . . . Off to Arizona! spokesman for American journalism.” , Green then shifted his assessments to the Arizona politicians. “Someone has to be there to channel the leadership.

Did we come to common decisions? Yes! We moved in a pack for a reason under a very unique circumstance.” But Green is quick to point out that this does not necessarily set a precedent. “I agree with the Times and the Post. This is not something that should be done frequently. But I do feel that there are times when this is the only way to do something. But on the other hand, to do this every day is ludicrous.” The mari singularly most responsible for criticizing the IRE team has been the Managing Editor of the Washington Post, Ben Bradley. Green was blunt in his appraisal of Bradley, there is no love lost between the two. According to Green, Bradley was skeptical of IRE. “Investigative reporters are too egotistical to work together in the same room and this wouldn’t work,” he reportedly said of the venture. * — , , deep breatl\ before his analysis of Gbldwater. “Goldwater looked terrible in his public utterances he looked totally unknowledgeable. He said there wasn’t any, organized crime in the state. But the Attorney General said there was, the governor said there was, the jilnior Senator said there and the police commissioner said there was organized crime. “Then he says ‘name one major mobster.’ Well how about Joe Bonanno? Then his aid says, ‘oh gee, 1 thought he was dead’.” Green adds, “Bonanno is operating out of Tucson and is the most powerful mobster working west of the Rockies, putting together a tremendous criminal family. Then Goldwater says, — on page 12— journalists carried on his work. What the “team” uncovered was a rats’ nest of crime and corruption involving as many prominent politicians as mobsters. The mam chosen to lead this investigation was Robert W. Green, the Suffolk County Bureau Chief of Long Newsday. Island’s largest Green is considered something of a pioneer in the journalism profession. He is the originator of the team concept at Newsday and from 1967 until 1972 he headed its investigative group. In 1971, Green’s unit won a Pulitzer Prize for its series entitled, “The Heroin Trail.” Green is a member of Investigative Reporters and Editors (IRE) Inc., under whose copyright “The Arizona Story” ‘Pack Journalism’ was published.

Inc. which appeared as a 24-part series in the Long Island daily, Newsday. The report was spurred by the car-bombing death in June, 1976 of Arizona Republic reporter Don Bolles, who was killed while investigating fraudulent land deals that involved some of Arizona's most prominent businessmen. As in Part One, all direct quotes that appear in The Spectrum are hereby attributed to the IRE report, as it was presented in Newsday. by Marshall Rosenthal Spectrum Staff Writer Barry Goldwater and Rosenzweig were close friends with Willie Bioff, an associate of Gus Greenbaum who had helped open the famous Flamingo Hotel almost thirty years ago.

In 1955, Arrowhead was sold to four prominent underworld figures. Webb and Crown purchased the farm four years later in 1959, with Crown putting up most of the cash. The Webb-Crown venture ended in 1966 when the ranch was sold to its present owners, Robert Godwater and the Joseph F. Martori family, under the corporate heading of Goldmar already-mentioned Corporation. Webb moved publicly to become the largest single hotel-casino owner in Nevada. In August 1961, the Webb Corporation bought the Sahara and Mint Hotels. Three years later he added the Thunderbird Hotel and casino to his conglomerate. He then put the casinos at all three hotels under the corporate name of Consolidated Casinos Corporation. Webb later sold the Thunderbird to the next-door neighbor of Meyer Lansky. Yet privately, Moe Dalitz, the top Lansky aid and personal friend of Robert Goldwater also maintairied a relationship with Webb. Dalitz became a major stockholder in the Webb Corporation in 1969 when he received 150,000 share of stock. The facts are clear, much of Arizona has been taken over by organized crime. From gambling and prostitution to the marijuana and heroin, criminal elements from across the country have flocked to Arizona to cash in on the big boom.

The PPC is a grassroots community organization statewide concerned with utilities issues. Public power, community control of utilities through city ownership in Buffalo, is a major focus of the conference. Towns and cities in New York State that have public power pay approximately half the amount Buffalo residents pay. Solar panels The conference will feature Fred Dusenberry, a well known community activist, who will speak about LIFELINE, a proposal for a more equitable utility rate structure. Under the present system. small residential customers are subject to much steeper rates than are large commercial and industrial consumers. LIFELINE proposes a reversal of this system. Its creators feel if less electricity and gas are used, less should be paid; it is a system that hopes to promote conservation and help low and fixed income persons. Participating in the afternoon workshops will be experts in various aspects of energy systems and utility organization. A highlight of the alternative energy workshop will be the presentation of two solar panels and a windmill built by the students from Rachel Carson College. The workshops are intended to provide the conference participants with concrete strategies for utility activism in Buffalo. The conference will conclude with a forum by Buffalo’s mayoral candidates. The candidates will be given five minutes to discuss their ideas on a comprehensive winterization program and public power for the city of Buffalo. There is a conference fee of $5.00 or $2.00 for those who have low incomes. For more information, call 832-8128. Friday, 6 May 1977 . The Spectrum . Page five �Goldwater and Bolles... '—continued from page 5— flood of drugs coming into the United States through the Arizona corridor cannot be stopped. “If we taxed the drugs being smuggled into the country, we wouldn’t have to pay income tax, that’s how much stuff is coming through,” said one Department of Economic Security (DEA) agent. Smitherman added, “Organized crime is here in Arizona, and it is a tremendous problem.” Law enforcement, he felt, will be able to make a dent in the problem only “when we are as well financed and organized as they are.” established by Gus Greenbaum for the A1 Capone mob before 1941, One of the men who managed the operation was Mike Newman.

The Arizona story is far from over. It may never be. But what has been resolved, as Newsdav’s Robert Green pointed out, is that the communications media will not sit idly by when a fellow journalist is murdered. The killing of Don Bolles did not hush up his story. He died long before June 13, 1976. He was killed by a society that allowed these types of operations to flourish for over forty years. Bolles merely opened a Pandora’s box which literally rocked the state of Arizona while shocking the rest of the country, as well. “Phoenix with all its growth and sophistication is a m sail town on its attitudes towards crime,” said Marisopa County District Attorney Charles Hyder.

This accounts for almost one third of their total budget. Dr. M. Luther Musselman, Director of University Health Services, said the cuts will come from the “other than personal services” (OTPS) budget. “This budget,” explained Dr. Musselman, “is used to pay for the incidentals other than salaries.” Without this money Health Services will be unable to purchase small but necessary items such as lab coats. In addition, such on-hand medications as aspirin and ointments now distributed without cost to students will no longer be available. All medicines and supplies will have to be purchased by the student either from Health Service or outside pharmacies. Another service which will be abandoned will be hiring of taxis for students who need hospital care. Little hope The Health Advisory committee, chaired by Associate Vice President for Health Science Dr. Donald Larson, met to discuss the problem and is planning actions aimed at avoiding the proposed cuts. In the event that the state decision cannot be reversed, committee members are hopeful that money can be found elsewhere to make up for the reductions. Larson explained that no action has been taken as yet, due to the illness of University President Dr. Robert Ketter. Musselman and Robert Olds, Director of the Health Care Division of Sub Board I, Inc., suggested that some type of en-masse protest march by Health Service employees might be made to Ketter’s office. Larson said that no decision had been made as to what form the discussion with Ketter would take, but felt that Musselman should be the spokesman for the committee since the cuts were from his budget. When asked about the possibility of a large protest and whether student action would help, Larson responded, “I don’t know when noice helps or hinders, so for the moment we will keep this low key.” At the moment the possibility of restoration of the budget slash from Albany seems rather slim. According to Dr. F. Carter Pannill, Vice President for Health Science, “The cuts are state mandated and thus cannot be restored.” This leaves only the possibility of the funds coming from somewhere else, throwing the final decision into the hands of Ketter.

If all goes well, he estimated the deficit to be somewhere around $15,000, with $105,000 in expenditures and $90,000 in revenue.

Van Nortwick pointed out that after reviewing the situation for about six months, he was going to take measures to resolve the problem before the resignation was submitted. He also stated that those measures could have included the dismissal of Fnke. He made it clear that when Enke took the responsibility upon herself, she promised she’d run the UP as an income offset operation and Van Nortwick holds her accountable for her failure to do so. Van Nortwick attributed some of the deficit to the printing of student publications as well as posters. He said the total cost of these endeavors was greater than the return. .

Friday, 6 May 1977 The Spectrum Page seven . . �EditPrial Painful music cuts The budget axe has fallen again. It appears as if the University will be without a Director for its two orchestras and its program jn Jazz Studies. Both programs are now in jeopardy. It is fair to estimate that any quality music department must have an orchestra. This University is fortunate enough have two, and they serve an important link to the community. It seems insane that thay be made vulnerable by not appointing an orchestra director. to On the other hand, the program in Jazz Studies is a specialty of which few universities can boast. The great interest in jazz at this University as in the City of Buffalo make it seem natural that such a program should exist here Discontinuing Jazz Studies here would be a crime. Provost George Levine said the reason the two appointments could not be made is because of a $135,000 deficit in the Faculty of Arts and Letters budget. We would like to see Levine get together with Vice President for Academic Affairs Ronald Bunn to see if a less painful alternative to the proposed cuts can be found. Maybe these popular facets of the University's music program can be saved. Drunk at Amherst The drinking problem at the Ellicott Complex reached a point during the winter's blizzard siege where Food Service, at the insistence of the Housing staff, refrained from serving alcohol for several days, and severely limited sales for a large part of the remaining emergency period. Many complaints were raised at the time, but the reasoning behind the booze embargo was simple: there are three to five alcohol related emergencies on campus over a normal weekend which require outside assistance, Although marijuana and other drugs traditionally linked with student counter-culture have occupied the limelight for Narcissist America To the Editor This letter is addressed,to the growing of the young of the 1970’s. When I first came to U.B., I had hoped to find that the times were still a-changing and that the American college student was behind this change. Idealistically, this change, which began in the sixties, stood for broader views on politics and religion, and for human improvement; it sought not to please itself but to please the world in that it wanted more openness, more giving of one’s self. The sixties sought to look past limited perspectives and strove for universal advancements-in the human condition: in education, peace, acceptance of other beliefs, customs, races, and backgrounds. The sixties were less troubled with personal materialism and bothered less by selfishness. In reading The Spectrum for the past two years, I have found the forum of modern student thought. These views argue themselves for the individual student and student group. Life at U.B. is segmented into various collections of views, all of which seem to care only for their own manifestations. I find that education here centers on economics; a job is the purpose of education, not learning. Liberal education is dying. I look around and see nationalist Jews venting war propaganda against the Soviets and Arabs while trying to uphold blatant Israeli imperialism in the Mid-East. There are Arabs and communists who spout racial prejudice and hope for war so that their side may win and commit genocide against the Jews. I find students from New York City who flaunt their home address as a sign of wordly sophistication, intellectual thought, and superiority over Buffalo’s townees. And the Buffalo provincials meet this with equally dramatic smugness and pride in their own ignorance of urban life. In Squire Hall I see: Jews who refuse to accept the existence of Christianity and Islam; Christians who refuse to call other believers in Christ by the name “Christians” unless they believe each word of the Bible; socialists who believe they won the ’76 presidential election. We are surrounded by groups for Blacks only, Catholics only, Chinese only In all, we fall victim to contagious short sightedness. We strive only for ourselves. We fight for the glory of our God, our race, our nation, ourselves, and in this ... fashion we build a shell around our minds, destroying any hope for a world society. Ideals are not being upheld. I know people who will again fight in any American war because they believe in America right or wrong. There are those, top, who believe that anything American is wrong. This country is slipping back into isolationism, segmentation, and division due to selfish goals. The seventies are again the culture of the fifties and the isolated, to pay its dues later. “How many thirties times can a man turn his head, pretending he just doesn’t see?” Bob Dylan would be surprised to see it again, so soon, and in the modern college student. — '— Joseph Zuchlewski Undergraduate many years, alcohol abuse has recently re-emerged as the leading health problem at this University Besides the damage we do to ourselves, however, is the deplorable vandalism most visible in Ellicott's Wilkeson Quadrangle.

We are writing to inform the University Community of our consternation at the recent loss of two vital positions in the Music Department. The administration has seen fit to discontinue both the Jazz and Orchestral Directors positions. This action will severely cripple the Music Program. It has been a painstaking process to secure these areas in the department, and their loss will be reflected in the quality of music education at this University. Last year a student strike obviously did not prevent the continuation of cutbacks in the Music Department and elsewhere. However we are willing to try again.

Friday, 6 May 1977 Library hours cut To the Editor Mr. William Bly, in a letter to your paper published on April 15, expressed great concern the cutback of the Art Library hours. We understand and appreciate his concern and deeply regret the inconvenience the cutback in library hours the faculty will cause to and students. \vp dpjaQt have any choice but to take such a step because of fiscal constraints. We were asked to give up twelve full-time positions by April I, and we were not given any additional temporary services money for this year. Both the Art about Librarian and this office spent considerable time deciding how we could best minimize the effect of the loss of lines on the library services in the Art Library. Your readers will be pleased to know that we were able to reduce the cutback from 15 to 10 hours and also not make it effective until after the examinations in May. We hope although we do not see any possibility at this time that the loss of library hours will be restored in the future. Again, we are sorry that we have to make such an unfortunate decision. Saktidas Roy Acting Director of University Libraries �Afro-American centc. flourishes Buffalo environment fosters a new black cultural renaissance by Marjorie Gross Spectrum Staff Writer Just as Harlem fostered and nurtured a Black cultural renaissance in the 1920'», so is Buffalo in the 1970's a vanguard in the projection of the arts throughout the nation." Voicing a sentiment that is prevailing in local artistic curren s these days was Celes Tisdale, somewhat of a Renaissance man himself. An actor, artist, poet and educator (at UB and Buffalo State), Tisdale is the new Executive Director of the African-American Cultural Center in Buffalo. Tisdale lias been absorbed in revitalizing the Center, which seems to riding high on the cultural crest. "I try to ler, 1 my expertise to make it a place where all people will be proud to come, especially my own people," he said. At the heart of the Center's activities is the Paul Robeson Theatre, recently named in honor of the humanist and performer who died last year. Employing an ensemble of actors and actresses from the Buffalo area, the Theatre has met with extraordinary success in the past few months. Commenting on the status of Black theatre in Buffalo, Tisdale remarked, "It's coming along fantasically right now. By the end of the glorious 'll season we will be sitting pretty. Very pretty.". Full house Tisdale and the Theatre Director Ed Smith, who is also a faculty member of this University's Theatre Department, inventoried their considerable acquaintance with plays that have attracted attention elsewhere and came up with five disparate productions for the season. Smith directed "The Sty of the Blind Pig," the production presented in April. The title is a euphemism for the house of prostitution where the protagonist, Blind Jordan, was born, and according to Tisdale the massage he conveys is that "the world is a whorehouse." The play broke all previous attendance and box-office records at the Robeson Theatre, which has a seating capacity of 160 when stretched to its limits. "I had to turn people away," Tisdale said. "We couldn't break the fire laws." To accommodate the tremendous response, the run was held over three days and was performed in the more spacious Greek Theatre at the Niagara Falls Convention Center. May 12th is opening night of Nannie Burroughs' "On Their Way to the Slabtown District Convention,". a comedy exploring the goings-on, mostly of women, at a southern church convention. In an interesting extension of the play's context, Tisdale is planning a box dinner-picnic for the closing night in June, containing what sounds like the quintessence of southern cooking. Social agency Rounding out the season are "Stagolee," a folk tale born out of Black oral tradition; "The Fabulous Ms. Marie" by Ed Bullins; and "Dream on Monkey Mountain," a fairy tale-like play set in the Caribbean. "Comedy, symbol, true enough grass-roots, folk idion, the West that, I think is variety," said Tisdale with evident Indies satisfaction — The Center, located in what was once a motor-tire garage on Masten Avenue, is subsidized by the New York State Council on the Arts and the United Way. "We're a social agency in a sense," explained Tisdale. The Center hosts programs designed for senior citizens as well as offering non-academic arts and crafts classes for the general community. Completing its devotion to all facets of the arts, the Center has a library, a dance company and a music department in the formative stage. While I was there, conga music from a drumming class came pulsing out of the Pearl Primus Dance Chamber, eloquent and enticing. Tickets for upcoming events at the Robeson Theatre $.75 for children, $1.50 for students and senior citizens, and $2.50 for others.

His innocence depths of the human soul. prevents him from grasping the Les Blancs explores the nature serious nature of the situation and his frustration is real as he of imperialism as it affects society discovers good intentions don't and the individual. It is the story hundreds of years of erase of an African people subject to white imperial control and their struggle for independence. Tied by the bonds of ignorance, they accept their plight until one day the oppressor is extringuished, and each group becomes the victims of the other's animosity. There is no escape, the guilty and the guiltless die side by side. Such is the horror of imperialism. Violence of peace "Take away the violence and who will hear the man of peace." The play examines the between external relationship conflict and internal strife the through individual consciousness of the characters. Chris Simmons pwerfully. portrays a Yshembe Matoseh, a young African returning from Europe to his homeland to attend his father's funeral. His passionate delivery reflects his anguish at having to choose between his family in Europe and his people in Africa. It's a decision between life and death, self-interest and the needs of an entire nation. The audience is touched by his humanity as they share with him moments of laughter, rage, and despair. The other major role is that of Page ten . The Spectrum . Friday, 6 May 1977 oppression. In a puff of smoke Matoseh says to him, "And just why should we talk so easily? What is this marvelous nonsense with you Americans? For a handshake, a grin, a cigarette, and a half glass of whiskey you want three hundred years to disappear and in five minutes! Do you really think that the rape of a continent dissolves in cigarette smoke?" Director Lorna C. Hill incorporates music and dance to evoke the mood of Africa. The theatre darkens, native drums beat, and a woman appears magically on stage, clad in a skirt, grass woven top, and mask little makeup. Her body throbs to the rhythm of the drums as she bewitches the audience with the power of her movements. Scenery and props are reduced to a minimum so that the acting is the essence of the play; it makes Les Blancs a challenge for the actors and a riching experience for the audience. Les Blancs is being presented May 5 to 8 at 8 p.m. in the Harriman Studio Theatre. Tickets are $1 for student and senior citizens and $2.50, .for general admission. Prodigal Sun �Shops close when Kinks play on a full moon by Dimitri Papadopoulos Contributing Editor The groupies control most of the stage door area, which is located near the rear of the Century Theatre. Their tall heels squeal deadly scars and load groans, injured groins. They are patient, yet still wighteen and savage. They investigate the exciting SMZ in anticipation of the stars who have not yet arrived. Their presence enhances the humidity of this usually desolate, now cramped street, constructing an almost unagreeable atmosphere for those moistened by the blue cans of Labatt's beer.. Everyone notices them. It would be hard not to express any furiosity in their older decadence, as they certainly looked misplaced in the crowd composed of high schoolers and collegiates. Their thick makeup diversion to the hoarse barking of the hired hand, who tries to inform diversion to the hoarse barking of the hired hand, who trysto inform for shorter lines wears off instantly and the large crowd remains intact, for shorter lines wears off instantly and tha large crowd remains intact. They are having too much-fun in the arrangement of Tupper Street. Canadian beer soaks through many blood systems.

To think that the bus driver complained pf pot smoking on the No. 8 bus headed for the Aud last Friday. When a Conceit comes to the Century, the store keepers on Tupper close their doors three hours earlier. When'the Kinks play on a full moon, they never even bother to open up. — Long Island boy Inside the hall, we see a continuation of previous incidents. There are long lines at the bar. It's 9 o'clpck and the bartenders are already almost out of Old Kentucky, Bourbon. Even the stale popcorn is selling well. Through all this, one Elliot Murphy and band try to establish themselves on stage. During the first few songs, however, the situation looks rather bleak. Most of the seats in the orchestra pit are still empty. It looks almost as if everyone had premeditated skipping Murphy in favor of the rock and roll of the Kinks. Nevertheless, Murphy's appearance him a tough edge ala Biran Jones, while his straight blonde locks him’ a tough edge alo Brian Jones, while his straight blonde locks lend him a more cynical attitude, the latter being very reiminispent of both Gregg Allman and Tom Petty. This Long Island boy Garden City in fact for all — Committee md the 0“[»e < Vazquez you bio freaks — is trying very hard to get his music across. It is a tight synthesis of brash rhythm and bides and good old rock and roll, which often finds roots in Van Morrison and more recently Graham Parker, yet its impact is often lost before it even reaches the balcony. How many acts must hate to be billed first in such a disrespectful city as Buffalo. It took a long barrom stomper, characteristically entitled "Rock Ballad" to get matters settled. For a while there, the audience almost became civilised. The few moments of peace gave Elliot Murphy a second wind and he countered the lull with "It's Just The Story Of A Miracle," which is a quasi-reggae number with beautiful call ipso guitar and carnival keyboard work. The crowd thought so too and even responded with a generous applause. As searingly powerful as Murphy can be and tasteful a lead guitarist was his accomplice on the right, it (simple, mindless, tasteless, was the highpowered ) straightforward, lame drum solo in the Springsteen-esque/"You Kick Too Hard, You Feel Too Little" epic, that brought down the house.

Watch him bend over backwards as he thrashes out those wild rpelodies. First an onslaught of stinging darts, then a touch of the berrychuck. He feels every note. Then of course there's Ray Davies, with his maniacal looking long black coat and white, red striped shirt. With the collar misplaced he sheds the appearance of a barber shop pole. It is Ray's radiant charisma that provokes such a totally believable air about him. Davies is in total control of the audience and the hall, which is packed to the rafters. When he urges them to clap, they respond. When he attempts "The Banana Boat Song," the audience commercial too; Everybody loves Sleepwalker when I play it for them. I play it, turn it up, and dance to it alot. I just go crazy! This 1977 concert is going to be the greatest. I think everyones going to tear their hair out. I yvant to bite them. My mom wants to see them. She's 57 and she loves the Kinks." Return to formative stages That is true enthusiam at its greatest extreme. While the possibility of someone running up and biting Ray Davies might seem terribly far-fetched, one must remember that the Kinks evolve from thesame generation that produced Beatlemania and screaming hordes of fans. The spirit has filtered down leaving an impact on today's Kinks' audience. In the history of the Kinks, one first experiences the group as interpreters of the American blues and harmony groups. Soon after the Kinks broke ground penning several hit songs including their immortal classics "You Really Got Me" and "All Day And All Of The Night." In light of the ever expanding consciousness of '67's record buying public, the Kinks recorded their first rock opera, Arthur, which superceded Tommy by at least three months. The '70's found the group blistered by the industry and weary of the public, yet it was in this vein that they recorded such masterpieces as "Top Of The PopsT and "Celluloid Heroes." In more recent configurations the group has turned to writing soap operas and plays for rock and roll. Sleepwalker is their latest album to date and it sees the return of the group back to its formative stages. The process has gone full circle, nroving that '77 has been the year of minimal necessity. Nostalgic moments After a mock opening, the group blitzkreiged through renditions of "Riding Down The Freeway," "Tired Of Waiting For You," and "Sunny Afternoon." The Kinks recreated those nostalgic moments with ah energetic fervor not always evident in the older, established groups. In doing so, the Kinks also certified themselves as able and highly technical rock and rollers. Mick AvOry is a very tight drummer who surpasses cliched drumming by adding punchy accents to the rhythmic propulsion of the music. To think The Rolling Stones once passed him up. New bassist Andy Pyle stands erect as he pounds out a ferocious stomp on his-Fender bass. His glistening blond hair and slick black tux reinforce the classical stereotyped English pop musician. I wonder what ever happened to John Dalton. Unfortunately John Gosling was only barely visable, yet his keyboard work added an infectious There IS a empathically sings along. Concept material The Kinks re-introduce some of their concept material, with the first few selections coming from the soap opera, School Boys In Disgrace. In "Rush .„Hour Blues" the ever manic-depressive Ray portrays Norman, the frustrated accountant. The material is professional and it shows that the Kinks have adapted well in keeping with the times. A specific note of excellence occurs when Ray and his two female backup vocalists engage in a call/answer situation, whipji finally climaxes with a bit of Zappa-style commentary. The whole song is accentuated by brother Dave's breathtaking guitar changes, Not to overdo matters, an organ part stolen straight out of ALL MY CH/'lDREN Ray clarifies any misgivings in a solo outburst. "I'm just an ordinary person, although I'm in a rock and roll band." At this point, Ray introduces "Life On The Road," a cut from Sleepwalker by explaining, "after three months on the road, I've notices it was a very important song to me." The song opens up with a wistful melody as Ray reflects on his early yearnings for a life noticed it was a very important song to me." The song opens up with a Suddenly the music is thrown full throttle, and the audience, is hurled into an in-depth encounter with Ray's adventures. Another let up allows Ray time to reconsider, but he chooses to take the final plunge and the consequential decision moves the audience into a rousing singalong, approving the thrust. Cinematic prespective Returning to a more cinematic prespective; The Kinks perform "School Days." For the rendition, R. Davies assumes a new role as the yvicked professor.

His high pitched harmonies add a greater dimension to the song. Everyone falls prey to the hullaballo. It's a great song, as good as "Satisfaction" of "The Kids Are All Right" and yet, even better material follows. The crowd is enraged by "Alcolol" with its gypsy backbeat and cabaret campiness. Ray does his famous type balancing-a-bottle-on-the-head trick, and even manages to douse himself once or twice. Then he staggers across the stage, swaying the bottle and declares in one final fit of frustration, "Damn it all, ALCOHOL!" Five stars. If that wasn't enough for the stunned crowd, The Kinks continued to assert their massive attack with a medley of their greatest—ever—hits. "You Really Got'Me" and "All Day And All Night" stand in a class by themselves. Ray's harmonica wails. The crowd can again dance to good rock and roll music. A rare pleasure these days. Rock and roll is still the best outlet for releasing stored emotions and frustrations. The Kinks supplied the enegy and the audience released a winter's worth of antagonism. Judging by our winter, you'd have to have called it a great concert. The encore was "Juke Box Music." I could issue another string of superlatives, yet I'd rather conclude by saying that whenever you are cruising in your car or even sitting hope that you can listen to at home listening to records the Kinks.

Ray Davis speaks, "Imagine it 3:30 in the morning and all the streetwalkers.are out there. Ray Davies is out there! He can't sleep. Wolf call." Sleepwalker is perhaps their strongest single since "Lola." It is also their first song to be doing well on the charts since 1970. It must be known that before the Kinks went into the title cut in question, they quizzically stormed through an unarmed ballad. Then came Sleepwalker, which is Davies at his best "I'm a once again. Ray sweeps through the chorus sleepwalker, I'm a night stalker, etc." Mick brings the song back to an exhilarating pace and Dave Davies brings the number home in an all time rocking fit. After a few seconds' breather, Ray, acoustic guitar in hand, belts out the opening chords to "Lola." The crowd is getting what it wants.

Directed by Drama Committee chairperson Daniel Brock, The Wager revolves around the intricate and ever-changing relationships between four people and accordingly presents a variety of meanings. On the surface, the play is about the dissolution of a marriage and the inauguration of an affair through the medium of a wager. A second level portrays how three women, Honor (Rachel Herzog), Page (Selina Page), and Beck (Sue Prestine) compete for one Ron, played by Barry Snider. Further, it explores a basic man conflict in human nature that between mind and body, between the caustically clever yet sexually unsuccessful Page and the pretty and promiscuous Beck. Although written for three men and one woman, the roles, in Brock's words, "can be filled by four men, four women, or two gay couples they are roles that come without genitals." By giving archetypal male roles to women, the cast explores new dimensions, presenting exciting possibilities for character development. The women bring three lifetimes of female experience to lines that normally express male attitudes; the results are interesting, 1 intense, and — — What can be said about a band that leaves kids in a smoky daze and fingering an imaginary guitar?

Islands In The Stream 'is clouded by its shallowness by Bill Maraschiello adaptation robs these encounters of both the human Arts Editor essence that is their soul, and of the nuances that fill them out. What remains is a shallow, downkeyed foam-opera that Schaffner, whose strongest and only significant virtue is a sense of the epic, to which he is unable to bring any interest. Ernest Hemingway's valedictory novel Islands In The Stream, though reading every inch the unfinished work it was, still has an expansiveness and a rich humanity that are its most endearing features. It's these very qualities that Franklin Schffner's film WHO HELPS BRING YOU THE CREATIVE CRAFTS CENTER? OFFERED TO STUDENTS, FACULTY AND STAFF THE STUDENT DIRECTORY Father image The task of enlightening Islands is also beyond the unassisted efforts of Schaffner's nominally fine cast. What one remembers most of George C. Scott's Hudson is how startlingly he resembles Papa H. in his close-cropped gray crewcut and beard. Scott's professed sensitivity to Hemingway, which can even be seen in his portrayal of such self-willed personalities as Patton, has no room to show itself here. Even in his somnambulistic performance, though, he's capable of lending Hudson a natural charisma that many actors at the peak of their powers would be unable to match. Evidence of this is Scott's more than holding his own in the face of David Hemmings' striking performance as his profane, rummy companion. Once the lean, sullen ferret of Blow-Up Hemmings has turned chubby and fleshy; his jovial Tonto to Scott's stoic Lone Islander is a well-placed counterpoint. The waste of the rest of the cast, including Claire Bloom (as Hudson's wife) and Gilbert Roland, is a casualty of trying to cramp a spacious novel within the constricting limits of a film. So is of Islands, now playing at the Boulevard Mall Cinema, has sacreficed, and the film suffers greatly because of their absence Hemingway's book speaks leisurely and lovingly about artist Thomas Hudson's languid life on the Caribbean Island of Bimini, circa 1940, and the encounters with his estranged children and divorced wife that change his life. Denne Bart Pettitclerc's Hudson's transition from a lonely, aesthetic hermit to a behind-the-lines refugee runner, an important transition that gets totally lost in the film's haste to finish everything up in time. When film producer Robert Evans visited Buffalo several weeks ago, he spoke enviously of the TV miniseries' scope for capturing the full range of an expansive work like Roots over several evenings. Whether he had the cramped, weedy Islands in mind is uncertain; certainly it would have benefited from having more room to stretch itself out on its sunny beaches. Good dog!

Howard Zierk's opus, "not to be confused with the original Flash Gordon," had no reason to worry about the confusion, with the likes of the Emperor Want, Dr. Flexi Jerkov, and the deadly Penisaurus around for the fun. It's raunchy, funny, and even has some good special effects and animation work. Boy Vic and dog Blood are survivors in the amoral world post-World War IV in writer-director L.Q.

The cynical tinge, reappears during her interpretation of Bobby Darin's "Mack the Knife" but the bluesy cornet of Warren Vasche and the heavy-hanging aura of Bob Stewart's tuba is sure to send anyone into the Cathy Chamberlain blues.

Kiki Dee, Kiki Dee (MCA) Whenever .Canadian folk music has been exported from the mother country to the states it has lost is essence. We stand on guard for you, on guard for thee. The particular thing about any form of folk music is that it deals with life as a regional telling of stories through song. AH that, however, is lost through mass appeal. Through popularity. Unit! lately, that is. The likes of Joni Mitchell, Gordon Llghtfoot, the popular folk, have never retrieved what they put to the back of their minds when they went for a larger audience. Popularity is contempt for what is sung to a small circle of friends or fans. But here I sit with bruised pride listening to Dancer With Bruised Knees. Because I was wrong. To think a product, made to sell, could project a regional feeling so well, is radical. Of course, Kate & Anna do not project pure, simple folk music. They are too cunning for that. Rather than the folk mode of action and climax, the McGarrigles portray song with thoughts of relation and communication, the end seeing twist of irony. Kate & Anna's voices are what should be pressed onto a record if folk music is to be distributed as a product. They conjure images of Montreal's French aspect. You're in a club or, more aptly, a pub.

For me, these harmonies are the song's lyrics. Not knowing the language on my part enhances the quality coquette mystery. You don't get bored. "Walking Song" is beautiful, as it lingers around love images. Kate sings with words of sports and of getting laid as she walks along, showing her lover a house buried houses of archetectural renown under Canada's snow.

Kiki is given dico and funk strings dubbed over her voice on "How Much Fun. Then a chorus is overdubbed to bury her voice. The same thing happens on "Standing Room Only." Without exception, strings and choruses are the true stuff of banality in rock 'n roll when they are too prevalent.

Still, they helped her voice along; that's what you expect with rock. On Kiki's new album the rock is fuzzy, the mix unintelligent. Disregarding the rockers, the ballads are quite nice. Elton John and Davey Johnstone haven't sounded better in some time. Johnstone aleays sounded better with an acoustic guitar in his paws and Elton always sounded good when he was inspired. I suppose Kiki makes a lot of people feel good. Even me especially during mellow songs like “Sweet Creation;" "Into Eternity," and "Night Hours" does she craft a haunting melody.

Page fifteen Prodigal Sun �RECORDS Tim Moore, White Shadows (Asylum) Carole Bayer Sager (Elektra) There must be a never-ending quest for songwriters to do justice to their songs by performing them themselves. After 411, it took Carole King a number of years to sit herself in a studio and record her own albums, the second one ( Tapestry) of which went on to sell millions. With King to lead the way, a really perplexing question still continues can the composer do his/her songs the best? year after year seems to be the common pattern is that the composer either What album and another artist picks up a song for his/her own records an just writes the songs and they are gathered by recording purposes or interpretations. The two releases I have their first other artists for examples to of each musical path taken. chosen review are history behind him. A few years prolific a Tim Moore has quite Song category for his composition first the Best prize in ago, he landed Song Festival, American and recorded it on his first "Charmer," at the album, Tim Moore. Also on the album was "Second Avenue," picked up by Art Garfunkel and made into a hig singfe. The album nver Sold, is now available in the budget racks and is worth at least twice as much as it is sold for. Moore's second album. Behind the Eyes, didn't sell well either, but gave the unlikely Bay City Rollers a single, "Rock and Roll Love Letter." White Shadows, the newest Moore release, is every bit as good as the first album, perhaps even slicker and cleaner. Whereas the.first album was dominated by the piano, the emphasis changes here to the guitar and the effect is a gratifiying transformation, bringing about a kind of "LA. feeling," not unlike that of the Doobie Brothers, Andrew Gold, The Eagles, etc. Then again, Moore has assembled a superb cast of musicians that answers the mystery of where the sou.nd comes from; Jeff Porcaro, Fred Takett, Wendy Waldman, Elliott Randall, Bill Payne, Ernie Watts, Wilton Felder, Harvey Mason, Leland Sklar, etc. The songs themselves are the absolute culmination of the talents of everyone involved. They are mainstream pop/rock tunes that could stand extremely well individually. Moore is a romantic in every sense of the word, stretching the form of the ballad every which way, each with a unique new insight. He is also a very capable musician, often handling more than one instrument per song. Tim sings passionately, and somehow his voice has the air of sincerity about it, a very important element. The lyrics match the man'swinging perfectly, with the essence of honesty spread throughout the words. Even the most basic ballad of love sounds very refreshing, in this case, the lovely "The Light of You:" —r~ ' — Sip into something When my blue sky feels like it's falling through, Inside I stay bright with The Light of You. Moonlight, Starlight. ., |M1 sparkling seas of blue. Bright dreams but dim they seem compared to the L igh t of You. — 0 One of the most helpful factors on White Shadows is the backup singing of Michael McDonald, the recently-added lead singer of the Doobie Brothers. This album exemplifies my case against McDonald as a lead singer, but shows his virtues as a voice in the background. On the upbeat songs of this album, McDonald's deep tones add a pleasing, dark undercurrent. On the other hand, when he does the Doobies' leads, the vocals are too muffled to hear the lyrics clearly. There is a misfortune, on Side Two, a song that passes as clever called "Little Bo's Peep Show." This cut simply does not fit on,an album mainly devoted to the ins and outs of love. It is hard to believe Moore included it, for it is downright unwanted. The production of Michael J. Jackson is inspiring, and the string cause Campbell of David almost never arrangements over-sentimentality, but go overboard with the last cut, "To Cry for Love."

Perhaps you remember his upbeat and catchy "Save it For A Rainy Day" which briefly crashed the AM charts a few months ago but then just as quickly disappeared. It had an all-star cast with STEPHEN BISHOP CARELESS Chaka Khan singing background vocals, Russ Kunkel on drums and a nifty guitar solo by Eric Clapton. It was a song about an improbable love affair. If she’s got everything she needs What does she need me for? I'm just a crazy fool coming back for more i Do you remember it now? I didn't think so. Nobody knows what allows a record to succeed certainly quality and originality.play a big part. Yet if those were the only criteria then Stephen Bishop would be a star and his album Careless at the top of the popular music charts. But nobody knows who Stephen Bishop is, and Careless is one step from the $1.99 rack at J.C. Penny's. It's a shame, too, because it is a rare pleasure that really deserves to be listened to. That's not to say the album is perfect because it's not. There are far too many love songs here of the "Tears on my Pillow" school, and they tend to become boring when be unmistakable to you and that's good. Not so good is the t one song ends and e fact that you begin to forget where "Careless," for example, other begins. The title track, Roll Slave.

Or, listen to work of "On and On" which features the electric guitar ("Lonely out Andrew Gold who now has his own single Boy"). "On and On" has that tingly summer sound which lets you know that school is almost over and the long, hot days almost here. And while it's true it was probably recorded for last summer, can we here in Buffalo be so very particular? Finally, "Sinking in an Ocean of Tears" will leave you humming it under your breath until you finally break into the chorus which in one sentence is catchy, touching and funny and all at the same time! ".. .And all / wanted was one more kiss." —Keith Friedlander You will love this album. I do. - — run together in strings of four or five a side. Also, there is a certain melodic repetitiveness throughout most of the songs that is perhaps both bad and good. After you've listened to Careless a few times you'll never not know whether that's Stephen bishop playing on the radio. It will Steve Hunter, Swept Away (Atco) combines Steve's searing guitar with intricate vocal When I saw the Peter Gabriel concert in the harmonies for a pleasant, mellow effect. However, it Century in March, it .was surprising that, although is not until the next track that the listener begins to the show was gifted with the immense talents of realize Hunter's diverse talents.

That person was find work and singing the blues as you went. This is Stephen John Hunter. Steve has been a studio the first chance one gets to hear his vocal abilities, session guitarist for the past few years, working with which at first sound extremely odd, but then seem such people as Lou Reed, and Alice Cooper, and quite appropriate for this type of folk-blues song. most recently as "full frontal" (or lead) guitarist on The style changes twice more before the close of Peter Gabriel's solo album, over the likes of Mr. Side One. With "Rubber Man,/' Steve displays a Fripp. feeling for the funkier side of jazz-rock fusion, while Now Hunter has a solo album of his own, which on "Of All Times to Leave," the combination of demonstrates his depth and versatility as a "rock" acoustic finger-picking and sweet-jazz electric guitars guitarist. The album is a collection of some rock give a subdued, lamenting feel to the piece. classics along with a few old traditional folk songs, as Side Two is a sort of "theme" side, the theme well as some new material written by Steve. His being that of water, the sea, and its immensity. The first track, "Jasper Street Viaduct Gitar Rag" is the odd song out on this side. The combination Of Steve's finger-picking and Jimmy Maelen's incidental percussion creafe a rag that is on the level'of any by Scott Joplin. The next cut is most likely the finest on the album. It is a slightly up-tempo version of the Brian Wilson song "Sail On Sailor," the arrangement of which has more feel that the original version. It is primarily an instrumental, except for the chorus of: "Sail On, Sail On," allowing the bluesy style to carry the song instead of the lyrics. The addition of latin percussion makes the opening to the title track, "Swept Away," sounds a bit like a typical cut from Sergio Mendes and Brazil '77, but that is where the similarity ends. Special effects, and special percussion give the song a feel of Nick Drake, Five Leaves Left (Antilles/lsland) the sea, waves lapping on the shore, and screaming Death has not brought fame to Nick Drake. Five Leaves Left his gulls as you are being 'swept away' to a tropical last and only available album, collects dust wherever fine, records are paradise. "Sea Sonata" is essentially a love song sold. It is an album which deserves much better. based upon such a setting. The mellow effect of the Drake was an English singer-songwriter, brilliant, solipsistic and backup band 'is rather impressive also.

In 1972, he checked out of a psychiatric rest home collected many of his friends from previous studio suddenly shattered by the searing riffs Hunter lays vowing never to write again. Two years later, he had somehow found sessions to play on this album. The bass is handled down with the electric guitar.

Why?. Why did this English super trio wait nearly two and a half years to 'spew out a double record disaster? The package, entitled Works, contains three sides of individual solo attempts, and a fourth side of the complete band. Side One, Keith Emerson's, isn't to be recommended to anyone but the more classically oriented. One piece, entitled "Piano Concerto No. 1," stretches the length of the entire side. The composition is broken into three movements. Emerson tries his hand at classical orchestral arrangements,-with the aid of John Mayer and the London Philharmonic Orchestra. His arrangements are good, but he stumbles in the same manner Rick Wakeman did on Journey to the Center of the Earth. When your audience is made up of rock enthusiasts, and you try to peddle pure classical, your piece may Be grand, but the' clientele will label you an artsy-fartsy fool, nonetheless. What happened to Emerson's fine classical rock compositions of * yesteryear? The Undergraduate German Club and the UUAB Film Committee present The Last Laugh Side Two, Greg Lake's product, contains the most interesting material, consisting of five songs in which Lake strums guitar and sings. His voice is as strong as ever, but the lyrics are somewhat confusing. ‘'C'est La Vie," the most popular F.M. cut off the album, has that characteristic ELP sound in their earlier discs. Many of Lake's words present are excellent, but often drags his confusion. I think thrown in to spund they're not consistent, and he accomplishments down with some of his lyrics are merely good, having no actual meaning Rainier has proven his perucussion expertise in the past, but I really don't think he has the musical ability to lead an entire side. Emerson lends an arranging hand on two cuts, including a fully orchestrated rendition of an old ELP favorite, "Tank." The new version sounds decent, but we've heard it before. Carl, stop trying to use fillers! Side Four, enlisting all three members together, is the biggest disappointment. Aaron Copland's "Fanfare for the Common Man" opens. Give up! This song was a jam in the studio, and on the turntable it sounds awful. Keith Emerson has already tried adapting a classical composition, with the bombshell Pictures at an Exhibition. Can't he learn from his mistakes? The other song, "Pirates," fares somewhat better. A ballad about buccaneering, the lyrics border on the absurd, but the music is excellent. When listening to this song, ignore the vocal track. This musical score, though overly orchestrated, is one of the only sounds reminiscent of ELP of yore. In reviewing this album, I kept getting the impression that these musicians think they are holy. The title and album cover would be more befitting to Beethoven. The inside portraits, with a glowing light emanating from each, give the impression that this disc was handed down from heaven. This set is tabled Volune 1, Volume 2 is already in the, works, to be released after their extensive summer tour. I have'been an avid ELP follower since their incarnation in 1971 with Emerson, Lake, & Palmer. After such masterpieces as Tarkus, Trilogy, and even Brain Salad Surgery, this concept is a great disappointment. They have evolved much in the past two and a half years and their new writing style may, indeed, take greater skill, but it is merely because they have taken on the added task of orchestrating themselves. excessively. Carl Palmer's handling of his side is hardly worth mentioning. Joe WaJsh, of all people,- helps You, the Gods, have given us the Works. Maybe Volume‘-2 will restore bur faith in thee on "L.A.

Prodigal Sun England Dan and John Ford Coley, Dowdy Ferry Road (Big Tree) Combinations of pop and MOR are not too common, and proficient combinations ot the two are even rarer. Too often, there is no balance between the serenity of MOR and the youthful freshness of pop, so that the two styles do not mix. England Dan known and John Ford Coley are perhaps the best (and most accomplished) performers in this field last year's having established their popularity with Are Forever L.P.

There are a few songs, however, which do stand out from the rest. "I Don't Feel That Way No More is the most haunting part of the album, and is not as superficial as the material that accompanies it. Even better is "Gone Too Far," with its energetic melody and brilliant refrain. The duo also makes "Where Do quite an I Go From Flere" sound interesting accomplishment for something written by Parker McGee This short description doesn't do the album sufficient justice. Let's just say that if you liked Nights Are Forever, you'll love Dowdy Ferry Road. —Eugene Zielinski B.W. Stevenson, Lost Feeling (Warner Bros.) B.W. Stevenson has never been an exceptionally successful performer, although he did gain some recognition a few years ago with Three Dog Night's "Shambala" and his own recording of ''My Maria." With Lost Feeling, he obviously hopes to recover some of that lost fame, for this must be his most commercial effort to date The trouble is that, in his quest for success, he has sacrificed too much of his identity; Lost Feeling isn't really a B.W. Stevenson album. At times he sounds like Bill Withers, or Gregg Allman, or any of a host of other Southern Fried rockers. In addition to this, the songs themselves are poorly chosen. Even "Down To The Station," easily the best cut off of the album, sounds tired and predictable after the first few listenings, a defect heightened by the unusually lackluster production. Lost Feeling is an embarrassment to Stevenson, mainly because he seems to be capable of so much more than what he shows here. Perhaps on his next effort, if he gets a better producer and choice of material, his real talent will show through. —Eugene Zielinski Friday, 6 May 1977 , The Spectrum .

This is the furthest that any bill of its kind has progressed in the upper house of the State Legislature. Although the chances for passage of the legislation are good, they are not great. Many legislators would prefer a weaker marijuana bill, or prefer to table the bill altogether.

In conjunction with NYPIRG’s drive for decriminalization, UB NYPIRG and other local NYPIRGs throughout -the state are encouraging students to write their state Senators calling for an end to criminal penalties for marijuana use.

One such incident was written up recently in the New York City newspaper, Soho Weekly News. The story, about how goons with clandestine ties, to the Taiwanese Embassy attacked such a forum at Columbia University exemplifies this fact. It is well known to every citizen of totalitarian countries like the Phillipines, Taiwan and Chile who reside in the U.S. that they can be controled by legal and illegal means, that their governments are interested in their every word and movement lest they give “the inside story” or participate in frowned on (labor, leftist, free speech) activities. At meetings of a dozen or a hundred where Chinese residents attend, the Taiwan government has spies whose notes, photos and tapes record what happens.

Nothing in the column indicates that Mr. Rotundo is even adequately, not to say exceptionally, informed or perceptive.

Mr. Rotundo’s “article” is simply a not very sophisticated rephrasing of already out-of-date cliches. The “question of television” has been dealt with by many more knowledgeable professionals than Mr. Rotundo whose uneducated opinions promise to be far more boring than the material, however bad, which he proposes to criticize. To mention only one specific criticism of the column: I doubt seriously whether Mr. Rotundo was even old enough to watch Playhouse 90, or whether he could know whether it was good or bad or for what reasons, and he neglects to cite the source of information which cannot be first-hand. He seems ignorant of general and informed concern over the lack of Playhouse 90’s and also seems ignorant of attempts in the last two years to develop dramatic materials of genuine .equality.

At a meeting of department faculty members Tuesday, George Levine, Provost of the Faculty of Arts and Letters, announced that appointments expected not be made. Current University orchestra conductor John Landis will not be rehired when his current one year appointment expires. In addition, there will be no replacement for this year’s Director of Jazz Studies. Levin© said the cuts were necessary because of a $135,000 deficit in the budget for the Faculty of Arts and Letters. Strong reactions to the cuts were aired by music department faculty and students. “This will be devastating to our jazz program,” declared Edwin Gordon, Studies Director of the search committee for a new Jazz. “Out of over 100 candidates, we were able to find one of the best qualified individuals in the country for this position. Now the program, jazz which entire two would consists of 3 courses and 150 participating students, is likely to disappear.” Gordon also said the department’s two jazz ensembles, involving 40 students, would be terminated. Eliminating two orchestras Far more serious, says Music Chairman William is possible the elimination of the two University orchestras. “Without a conductor, our community orchestra can no longer exist. And to keep the Philharmonic, I’ll have to divert a faculty member whose expertise is not in conducting an orchestra.” The two orchestras involve 80-100 students. anger Student high, is according to Undergraduate Music Student Association President Clark Saunders, who declared corrective action will be taken. A boycott of activities on the University’s Community Day is now being planned. Music events comprise a crucial part of this event. “We want all music students to boycott those events,” said Saunders. “When there is no music because there are no players, knowledge of f the administration’s actions must be given to the community.” Department Thompson, Chairman Thompson reiterated Saunder’s point. “The orchestras perform vital public relations functions. They are two of the University’s most important contacts with the community, and quality of education for students inside and outside the department will be severely diminished with their passing.” Although provost Levine told The Spectrum it was “still not the completely decided” that the cuts would take place, Thompson insisted that he and colleagues were told there was “only a slim chance” of preventing the cuts.

The proposal has been questioned by Lorenzetti for possibly not complying with SUNY-wide guidelines for use of student activity fees.

Southfield, Ml. 48075 �Weekend action Baseball Bulls will face Canisius today A busy weekend for the baseball Bulls has begun. Today they host Big Four rival Canisius at Peelle Field at 3 p.m. Tomorrow, they travel to Colgate University for a pair of games, and Sunday at 1 p.m. they return to the cozy confines of Peelle Field for a twin bill against Ithaca. Add to that a doubleheader at Penn State yesterday, and the Bulls have seven games in four days. The big strain will be on the Bulls’ pitching staff, which hasn’t been doing extremely well anyway. For the season, the Bulls have averaged nearly a walk per inning, and have an ERA of 5.04. The Bulls have been led by Bill Casbolt, a senior lefty who has put in fifteen appearances already this year (the record is 17). Casbolt owns the staffs best ERA (2.85), as well as a 4-4 record. Casbolt recently went 20 innings without allowing an earned run. Another lefty having a good year is junior Dave Borsuk (3-0, 2.95). Borsuk has been hard to hit this year, although his control has been a little off. Sophomores Ron Mero, Mike Betz and Rick Brooks also have looked good as starters on occasion, and looked bad on other occasions. Hitting well The Bulls strength, however, is their bats. Led by big Mike Dixon, Buffalo has outhit their opponents so far this year. Dixon, batting .433 with four homers and 21 RBIs, has been on a hot streak all year. Leftfielder Joe Vizzi and catcher Phil Ganci also have been on hot streaks lately, and they join rightfielder John Pederson, shortstop Jack Kaminska and secondbaseman Mike Groh as Buffalo’s leading batters. Buffalo has beaten Canisius once already this year 10-4. Today’s game vVas originally scheduled as Canisius’ home game in Delaware Park, but because of the poor condition of the Held there, the game has been swtiched to Peelle Field. However, it is still the Griffins’ “home” game,and Buffalo will probably baf first. Buffalo will face Colgate for the first time this year on Saturday. The Bulls won the team’s only decision last year, 2-1. Buffalo will meet Ithaca on Sunday for the first time since the fall of 1975. Improvement at Albany Golfers finish second to last at Penn Invite It has been a difficult year so far for the golf Bulls. They have beaten only one team thus far this season (LeMoyne) while compiling a 1-3 record. They also had a rough time over the weekend at the Nittany lion Invitational at Penn Statei Monday, they did quite a bit better at the Schaeffer Invitational in Albany. At Penn State, the Bulls finished 14th of fifteen teams, beating only Duquesne. Mike Hirsch was Buffalo’s top golfer, carding a 245 for 54 holes (par was 72 for 18 holes). Hirsch was out of the running quite early, as his score of 124 after 27 holes was 14 strokes behind the leader, and placed him 75th overall. Engineers sink Will cement canoes float? Have you ever wondered if floats? That’s the question that this University’s Civil Engineering Society has answered. The student chapter of the American Society of Civil Engineers last week held their annual concrete canoe race, at Princeton University. The event, which draws some of the top engineering schools in the East, was a huge success, both in the water and out. The Buffalo team finished eighth out of a field of eighteen, which was surprising considering that their two entries sank. The concrete canoes also contained a lightweight aggregate called perlite. A reinforcing steel mesh was placed over the wooden mold for easy construction by the skillful hands of Marty Gauthier and Mike Ader. concrete Improvement at Albany Sink or swim The two canoes from Buffalo, one weighing 117 pounds and the other 246 pounds, ran into difficulty as the 400 yard race progressed. The team of Paul Kubicki and Emad Faddoul made it to the finals, but lost the last round race when their canoe sprang a leak. At Albany on Monday, the Bulls finished fourth of 19 teams, as Formato had Buffalo’s low score of the day, an 82. Hirsch had an 85, Davis an 86, Caffarelli and Quirin a 90 and Kazuba a 95. However, the tandem of John Schmidt and Phil Schmitt had a rougher time in their races. They Newcomer Greg Kazuba had Buffalo’s second best score, a 250. Marc Davis followed with a 252, Tony Formato scored 257, Jim Quirin shot a 258 and Steve Caffarelli shot a 261. entered the semi-finals, but didn’t finish as their canoe sank halfway through the race and the two brave oarsmen needed rescue assistance from the cold, murky waters of Princeton Lake. Carnegie Mellon University, sporting the lightest canoe at 97 pounds, was the runaway winner with a time of two minutes, 53 seconds. Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, with their canoe built “solid” at a whopping 510 pounds, finished the race as the closing ceremonies were ending. Although many of the boats sank, the three-day event still served as an excellent learning experience, and Buffalo’s team is already optimistic for a better finish next year. Buffalo was awarded the cement fish award for their sportsmanship and enthusiasm, impressing the other entrants with their club, their school, and the city of Buffalo. RIPPED OFF! The Bicycle Compound is officially opening today Rny student who wishes to register their bicycle, please do ao at the Bicycle Compound. RNOTHER STUDENT ASSOCIATION SEAVICE. Part of the problem, explained Bulls’ coach Bill Dando, was the tough competition. Buffalo also hasn’t had much practice time recently because of the rainy weather last week. “Our kids aren’t playing good golf,” Dando said. “We can’t get on the golf course to practice.” The Bulls final meet of the 1977 spring season will be this weekend at the Eastern Intercollegiate Golf Association Championships at West Point. Dando is hoping that the Bulls’ scores will be a little lower at West Point. “We played Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, so at least we’re getting some playing time now,” Dando said. The Bulls are not even playing as well as last semester, when the team’s scores were in the high seventies or low eighties. With the Bulls’ season ending this weekend, they won’t have much time to regain their previous form. Friday, 6 May 1977 . The Spectrum . Page twenty-five �CLASSIFIED Sociology prof joins Sheriffs Department Last chance for classified Erie County Sheriff Kenneth Braun announced this week that Dr. Robert E. Ford, from the Department of Sociology, will serve as new Chief of Operations in the Sheriff’s Department. Ford will be on leave from his University position for at least a year. The position that Eord was appointed to is a newly-created one, replacing the position of inspector. As Chief of Operations, Ford will supervise the Department’s internal operations, including handling the budget, payroll and personnel as well as distribution of manpower. The position is the third-ranking position in the Sheriffs Department (under the Sheriff and Under-Sheriff), and pays between $15,968 and $19,836 a year. Ford cited many reasons for accepting the position. “If you teach area of law enforcement like I do, it is important that you get as the in much experience in the streets as you can. I worked in the Chicago streets before I came here,” Ford said. Ford is currently an assistant professor of Sociology at the State University of Buffalo where his field of specialty is Criminology and Penology. He is a graduate of Niagara University, and spent a year in the Chicago police operations on a research grant while studying for his doctorate at the University of Illinois. “He came to SUNYAB in 1969, “wearing a purple heart’ Ford joked. Ford will continue meeting his classes this semester and will work on Saturdays at the Sheriff’s Office to make up for the lost time. “I hope to make the Sheriff’s Office a more efficient and humane department,” Ford said, when he was asked what he hoped to accomplish. “I would like to help Sheriff Braun keep his campaign promises.” CHARLIE’S Men’s Hair Styling r"" • SUB t BOARD?

Needless Pevelopment Corporation (UDC), - Nuclear plant protest captures national eye by Jay Rosen Staff Writer Spectrum Organizers of a massive occupation of a proposed nuclear power plant in the tiny resort town of Seabrook, New Hampshire succeeded in capturing national media attention Monday when over a thousand demonstrators were peaceably arrested. The arrests capped a full day of demonstrations and meetings that began and ended in a relatively sedate manner. The demonstrators started their occupation of the site Sunday afternoon, setting up rows of brightly colored tents, vowing to remain there until plans for the $2 ’ billion plant were dropped. A group called the Clamshell Alliance, which organized the event, called the demonstration a major success, citing the turnout of about 2,000 and the smoothness which characterized the day’s proceedings. One of the meetings involved New Hampshire Governor Meldrim 1 Thomson Jr., an ardent supporter of nuclear power. Thomson was flown in by helicopter early Monday afternoon, requesting an audience with the governor. The demonstrators sent messages through the chain link fence that separated the protesters from the 300 odd policemen and state troopers summoned from throughout New England area. ‘We’re going to stay’ Surrounded by reporters and cameramen, Thomson met with six of the activists, urging them to end the occupation. “Your point has been well made,” he said. “I doubt that I could persuade you and I doubt that you could persuade me, but, that is America.” The demonstrators were not impressed. They claimed they would not leave. The next meeting, characterized as “an elaborately polite and courteous one,” was with Col. Paul A. Doyon, the Commander of the State Police. Doyon gave the protesters half an hour, saying: “I would like to encourage you to call it a weekend.” He,also warned the press to leave, adding that they would otherwise be subject to arrest. America.” The demonstrators were not impressed and claimed they ’ would Leaders of the occupation went back to their campsite carrying the Commander’s message, and initiating a vote. They then reported back to the colonel, announcing, “We’re going to stay on the site.” Mutual thanks were exchanged, and both parties returned to their respective camps. • Lockport Expressway, in order to improve regional access to the campus, from the west, south and east. “We wish to be firmly on record in support of this project and will provide every assistance early its towards possiblq Traffic need seen speedy and On the other hand, the Town construction he said. of Amherst, the UDC and this completion,” Telfer also claimed that the, University’s administrative boards is necessary in order have overwhelmingly agreed that expressway the heavy flow the Lockport Expressway is a to accommodate traffic foreseen for necessity in light of future traffic of commuter the Amherst Campus in the near ' projections for the Amherst area reveal that by and the geometrical inadequacies future.

' According to Pat Giagmacova, Program Coordinator for the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, “The expressway will not be going through a virgin forest. The area in which it will be located has already experienced sufficient urbanization and minimal environmental impact on existing conditions.” Giagmacova explained that the expressway will not go through the wet' lands situated around Ellicott Creek, as originally planned, but will circumvent those areas in accordance with the “Wet Lands Preservation Act” of 1975. A begrudged Amherst resident, who will be forced to give up his home because of the expressway, said, “If wildlife and wooded lands are reasons to move an expressway route, why aren’t ‘human rights and lives’ as justified?

Some protesters went limp as troopers approached, forcing the officers to carry them from the site. Arrested demonstrators were given identification numbers and bused to a local armory. By nightfall, over a thousand prisoners had been taken. Several reporters had also failed to heed Colonel Doyon’s warning, and were subsequently arrested. Several of the protesters were Western New Yorkers, trained together as an “affinity group” representing this section of the country. These groups contributed strategies and suggestions as to how the protest should be launched. Though the demonstration’s impact on the nuclear industry cannot be known immediately, opponents of nuclear power await public reaction, the most potent weapon is the anti-nuclear arsenal, before judging success or failure.

Speaking to'Slate University (SUNY) student media representatives recently in Albany. Dickenson apologized for last year’s difficulties, acknowledging that “a lot of grief occured in many homes” of SUNY students when TAP checks did not arrive in time for tuition deadlines and Universities demanded payment. She explained that 1976-77 marked HFSC’s first year of computerized processing of TAP application forms, and the old form proved poorly suited to automation. ‘The computer inflicted its logic on the TAP forms,” she explained, and rejected them for the slightest mistake. The biggest problem occured. however, when the new “Honeywell 6060’< broke down completely while the first applications were being processed. Until batch °1 this year the applications had been processed by hand, but the. New York State Legislature had called for a “corporate restructuring” of HESC.

The new form eliminates the extra form for declaring financial independence for students over age 22, and cuts the number of items for parental income from 39 to 13. Dickenson explained that 2000 test copies of the application were sent earlier this year to college students in the Albany area, and the “clean rate” (processdble form) was significantly higher than last year’s. The Student Association of the State University (SASU) is currently sueing HESC over the alleged unconstitutionality of TAP’s age 22 limit for requirement of an emancipation form. Dickenson remarked that such' a legal action would be “a massive diversion of energy” for her and'HESC.

All of the women involved were delegated different tasks in committees to assure effective execution of the plans. WSC hopes to make its program more visible to women throughout the SUNY, and CUNY system, as well as in the community at large. The focus of the conference is on women’s studies programs in the University, and issues will be discussed that pertain to the survival of these programs, initations of new programs, and further growth of the pro gams already in existence. The conference will attempt to analyze the history and development of women’s studies as an educational area, and will provide forums for dialogue around key curricula and program issues, as well as the concerns of women. The participants will also discuss effective ways of, building support networks and communication avenues between programs. Interaction among participants will hopefully be maximized, and exchange of resources will be encouraged. Exposing the myths WSC has decided on a format including three hour-long panels, with each panel made up of three women. The first panel, entitled: “What Does Women’s Studies Study and Why?” will expose the myths and stereotypic images’which distort women’s lives. “The negation of women’s role in history has generated new research and new perspectives on the real role of women in history, and women should be encouraged to learn them,” said Patty Shank, a conference organizer. This panel will also address such issues as the importance of recognizing women’s different social realities, and analyzing the impact of ra*, class and sex oppression. Following the panel will be a workshop, which will move from the general scope of the panel presentation to the specific concerns of the different participants. The workshops will , include discussions on sexuality, lesbianism, and Third World women. Other topics that will be discussed are: “Developing Interdisciplinary Courses From a Feminist Viewpoint,” and “Developing a Cohesive Program.” The Colleges’ opposition to hierarchical methods of education has raised issues on “How to Teach and Who Teaches Women’s Studies?” This panel deals with questions such as: What are the best forms in which to teach women’s studies? Does Women’s Studies need new forms? The panel also considers collectivity as a feminist structure, student teaching, and how to meet the needs of older women. The workshops following the panel will scope specific areas of the questions dealt with in the panel. The workshops will include: Education As Consciousness-Raising; Teaching Racially Mixed Classes; Teaching and Learning Collectively; and Women’s Studies , ■ i College Poetry Workshop. Viability of WSC The third panel, “How Can Women’s Studies Programs Maintain Their Connection to the Community and Society at Large,” speaks to the problems that arise from changing economic and social conditions that affect both women’s studies programs and members of the community. This panel will also explore the viability of women’s studieis connection to social issues and groups, and the problems encountered in attempting to extend women’s studies into the community, as well as the University. The workshops following this panel include: Working With Women’s Projects In The Community; Tensidns and Obstacles of Beginning a Women’s-Studies Program; The Struggle For Survival: Issues and Strategies; and Why Should Women’s Participants and attendants, as well as panel and workshop initiators, will be arriving from all areas of the state. The CUNY and SUNY systems will be widely represented, and student groups and faculty from Albany and Brooklyn, Oneonta, Farmingdale, will reside in the homes of college members, students, friends and faculty. Communal breakfasts will start the day off, and child care will be provided for anyone who needs it. “We hope this will convey the warmth of our welcome, and help people get to know one another,” said Tina Leib, a conference organizer. Social events Social and cultural events will also take place throughout the weekend. There will be a wine and cheese party on Friday night. On Saturday there will be a communal dinner, with a fee of $3.70 for faculty, and $2.00 for students. Following the dinner gi|ll be a feminist folk-singing and poetry coffeehouse. Another main feature will be an all-women’s dance at the Allentown Community Center on Elmwood Avenue. Women’s art work and photography will be on display, and a mobile unit will be set up by EMMA, the Buffalo Women’s Bookstore. Registration for the conference wilj go on through Friday evening.

Initially, we expect to publish the Anthology as i inexpensively as possible. This may mean, for the first issue, a volume bf reproduced typescript. As soon as' may be feasible, we look forward to, putting out a regular hard-cover type-set book. That would be after the project proves itself in practice, with a quality product. Once a proper editorial system is established, a new number of the Anthology can be published whenever sufficient copy is ready for the printer. In brief, that is our proposal. A few words on the organization of the Student Writing Group: the undersigned organizers are mostly ad hpc\ there are not many of us, but we don’t want a more elaborate structure than we need. What we do need for the Anthology in addition to a nice flow of good manuscripts and writers willing to re-write are a bank of initial screening editors, a number of advanced a editors, undergraduate and few senior graduate/faculty editors to staff three levels of the overall editing process. We al|,o need typists and one or more production helpers. And some money, of course. We are applying, in the first instance, to Sub-Board for starter funds to cover production of the first volume, and to pay typists. (We expect to apply soon for other grants elsewhere.) Eventually, we would like to be in a position to give some money to the hardest-working editors. And to pay all writers a word-rate. It could be big.

We want student writing of.any kind, of all kinds. not its subject or form or The quality of the writing is what interests us. We are asking to original purpose look at term papers, essays, independent writing by ambitious students, accounts of personal experience, and a wide variety of journalistic writing. Almost anything perhaps even a really good letter home. Students who submit writing for inclusion in the SUNYAB Anthology must be prepared to undergo ami participate in a strenuous process of editing and revision. Indeed, this is the heart of the matter. Our purpose is to publish writing in order to encourage the good, the better, and the writing on this campus writing by Buffalo students, graduate and best jrndergraduate. To achieve this end, revision and editing are called for. This editing process is additionally necessary since we see superior writing as non-professional, of broad interest and appropriate aspiration, and .addressed to a general lay pudience. So, for example, we would welcome work by a student in chemistry or linguistics or engineering or dentistry -or any of the special but only if written or revised for departments comprehension by a non-technjcal readership.

Page seven �Kent State Seven years after thefact took only 13 Ohio National Guardsmen fired 61 shots into a crowd of students at Kent State University leaving four dead and nine wounded. Dean Kahler will never walk again. Time has helped ease the horror of May 4, 1970. But the hidden truth behind the killings grows like a tumor. A special Ohio grand jury report absolved the National Guard and the Ohio authorities for the killings of four students and the wounding of nine others. The grand jury instead indicted 25 persons linked with the demonstration. The reports by. the President’s Commission on Campus, Unrest made shortly after events of May 4, show that the killings were unjustified and unnecessary. And yet there is not the slightest chance that anything will be done about it. More than a year after the fact, following an 8000-page report made by the Department of Justice, Attorney General John N. Mitchell was able to say with a clear conscience, that he was (CPS) — It seconds., Twenty-eight Conspiracy The most serious challenge to information released by the Justice Department was made by Peter Davies, an insurance broker in New York who was a firend of Arthur Krause, father of one of the students killed on May 4. Davies contends that there was a conspiracy among guardsmen to shoot and that the plot may have had its roots in the White House. Davies has been one of the most diligent investigators of the Kent State shootings and his studies are compiled in his book, The Truth About Kent State; A Challenge to the American Conscience. In testimony given to the FIJI, the guardsmen from the front-line G Troop claimed that their lives T. P. PRODUCTIONS presents NATALIE COLE the Gang Brick Friday, May 13 8:30 pm Memorial Auditorium Kool were in danger. “I feared for my life from the time we split on the initial move toward Taylor Hall. I did not feel panic. I felt that if we wouldn’t have shot at them, we would have been run over and killed,” said one unnamed guardsman. ‘They had hate in them and I felt they were trying to kill us. I was very scared,” said another. “. we had a thousand people going to do the best they could to prove to the student union they could kill anything I that stood in their way would have shot sooner if I hadn’t froze to protect my life and my com«pany’s life,” said still one more guardsman. “satisfied that the Department has taken every possible action to justice.” However, serve testimony from guardsmen* students and eyewitnesses to the shootings which has surfaced as a result of both criminal and civil suits have spawned facts that virtually collide with each other, serving anything but the truth. & «- .. ... Self defense Remarks by the Guards are incredibly ■ similar, indicating to Davies and others that the self-defense was a fabrication by the guardsmen. Even the FBI doubted the credibility of the testimony. In a secret report prepared in the Justice Department in July 1970, read on the Senate floor by Sen. Stephen Young (D-Ohio), the FBI said that it “had reason to believe that the claim by the National Guard that their lives were endangered by the students was fabricated subsequent to the event . . The Senator’s speech received no attention. It went unreported in the press and it took ten days for the story to reach Ohio. Over 3000 photographs taken at Kent State on May 4 proved even more damaging to ,the guardsmen’s alleged lile-or-death situation. The closest student, Joseph Lewis, shot while making an dbscene gesture to the guard, was 71 feet away. Jeff Miller, killed instantly, was .265 feet away. Allison Krause the 329 feet from stood who killed her. William guardsmen Schroeder was fatally wounded at a distance of 382 feet and Sandra Scheuer, who bled to death when a bullet severed her jugular vein, was 390 feet away from the troops. ‘ , the staggering distances make the Guard’s claim of self-defense not only ridiculous but contemptible. Not one of the guardsmen who aimed and fired at the students . . . could successfully have argued self-defense as a civilian before a district attorney. But Americans have evidently come to regard the uniform as sacrosanct. If soldiers say they fired in self-defense, they did, since military men never he,” says Davies. “ .. Gag order Files recently released from the FBI managed to skirt the entire issue of conspiracy, and dwelt on such things as a complete chemical analysis of the rocks and debris found in Allison Krause’s jacket and around the area of the shooting. Further information about the events surrounding the killing on May 4, 1970 has been blocked indefinitely by a gag order slapped on pre-trail information in the civil suit now pending in Ohio. “It really bugs me,” said Davies in New York last week. “That’s so much goddamned liberal trash, the first trodden interested. State puts Amendment upon, is being no one is The very word Kent the press off... it’ s outrageous!” said Davies. Of course, Kent State does not stand alone as an example of the abberatioh of the truth. The murders of black students at Jackson State and in Orangesburg have never ( 1968) been investigated thoroughly. Could it happen again? “Why not?” says I.F. Stone worked on his own who investigation of Kent State in his book The Killings at Kent State: How Murder Went Unpunished. I.F. Stone admitted Sadly, from his office in recently Washington, D.C. that he is no longer looking into the events of May 4, 1970 but had “all the respect in the world” for Peter Davies’ work. It’s been seven years since the nation read about Kent State. Students who were'there that day speak with visible horror on their faces, and their voices waiver when they remember, as one student did specifically, the moment the guards turned in unison, lowered their rifles and began to shoot. For one father, Arthur Krause, it’s been hell. “It’s getting harder and harder,” said Davies about Krause. “He’s been in the cemetery for seven years and he wants to get out.' He can’t.” Next week there will be scattered memorial services around the country commemmorating the Kent State killings. Kent State University has decided not to cancel classes.

Trudeau Holt, Rinehart & Winston A story of four young people Reprinted by permission from the Akron Beacon Journal May 24, 1970 , (Ohio) —; Sandra Lee Scheuer, 20, of Youhgstown, was a junior majoring in speech therapy. She lived in a two-story house a block and a half from campus where her room was always neat, her bed always made. She drank hardly at all, an occasional wine or couple of beers. She had smoked marijuana a couple of times, but never really wanted to get stoned because she didn’t want to become dependent on anything. On Friday night (May 1, 1970) when the kids were breaking windows on Water Street, she was at the Moon-Glo roller rink. On Saturday night when the ROTC building burned, she was studying for an exam. On Sunday night when students sat down on the street, she was in her living room. On Monday, she had just left a speech therapy patient, a boy with a lisp that she was trying to help. She was walking across the parking lot trying to get, away from the turmoil when a bullet hit her in the neck and cut her windpipe in two. Jeffrey Glenn Miller, 20, of Plainview, N.Y., was a psychology major, and transferred to Kent State in January from Michigan State.

There is only the recollection of a time when return of varsity football to this campus and now it’s students made great personal _ sacrifices for idealistic my turn. First, in keeping with the general tradition of principles, and a trail of sullen, rhetorical headlines in The these praiseworthy pieces, much credit goes -to Spectrum, the best of which asked, "They shoot students, Dennis Delia, but as Student Athletic Review Board Chairman, not as SA President. I believe that even if don't they?" Dennis had lost the election for SA President, his Dando can garner certain considerations from various administrative sectors of the University. For instance, Dando could significantly improve his bargaining position if he could offer to each potential starter, instead of a single at Ellicott, a wing at Clement. Football players need space, you know. For local talent, Dando should be given the latitude to offer promising high school seniors guaranteed parking in Tower Lot at any hour of the day. Admittedly, this may make other commuting students a bit riled, but everybody has to give a little if Buffalo is going to win. One of the keys to a prospering, successful program, though, will still be adequate funding. Costs are always rising, and it would be nice if pre-campaign efforts would still have led to the return of football. And as usual, praise goes to the Clark Hall people, the Alumni Association, and even the society's traditional channels which at least would say, President’s pffice which offered as much anonymous- sources other than, SA and the Alumni Association support as possible.

Needless to say, we were disappointed, and a school, also returned a Division III erltry to fat and ugly. But putting logistics aside, the theory behind bit amazed.

Not revenge, but a resolution through - Graduate fee referendum - .. whether to continue to pay the student activity fee. The referendum vote is required every four years by the SUNY Trustees. In the fee referendum which accompanied the undergraduate Student Association elections this semester, the student activity fee was overwhelmingly reapproved. The imperatives for continuing the activity fee are clear: The $67 a year fee supports not only the activities of the Graduate Student Association, but also funds the services provided by Sub Board, the student corporation. Sub Board provides UUAB concerts and films, Group Legal Services, the student pharmacy, and an array of income-generating activities. Although there are persistent problems in administering the fee to everyone's satisfaction, the fee's demise or even the withdrawal of the graduate students' share could wipe out these vital student services. As we said of the undergraduate referendum, graduate students owe it to themselves to support the fee. - - The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. 81 Editor-in-Chief — Richard Wednesday, 4 May 1977 Weighty complaints Korman To the Editor.

We remain Jeffrey “Apple Pie" Clark Bob "the Well Bernie U.S. Schnieder Wm “Jefferson Coffee " " Identifying rape victims To the Editor We feel the April 25 article on the Kenneth Johnson Trial unjustifiably . identified the rape victims. It is common journalistic practice to preserve their anonymity due to the very nature of the crime. Only when specific names shed further light on the case are they included, for example, in the case of a dubious rape victim such information might expose its illegitimacy. However in this case, no parties question that these women were victimized. But by whom. The inclusion of their names serves no greater purpose than to cause these specific victims undue discomfort and to further intimidate future victims from coming forward. Perhaps if the reporters were more involved with responsible journalism, then with the Kenneth Johnson support group, such thoughtless negligence could be avoided. Anne Swern Jon Appleseed Stan Pritzker Participation and the elite To the Editor Football as well as any athletic endeavor is very appealing to me. However, in the long run 1 do not believe it is in the individual interest to depend on someone or some institution for entertainment. 1 admit that it is much easier to watch an elite athlete perform, while in the meantime we sit back, have a beer, and criticize or commend that person’s performance. Applied to government, it looses the active participation of its citizenry and results iri an inefficient beauracracy. Intercollegiate football will become more expensive with the years and more elite in player quality. While spectators will drink more beer and get more argumentive and become less able to release the tension in physical athletic participation. Such behavior may be acceptable for old folks. However, I believe that solutions to future problems need much more consideration on the part of individuals “variable” qualifications and less dependence on another’s dictates.

While President Garter claims to support human rights, the U.S. military budget expands and the human rights of Americans to education, health care and jobs diminish.

It deals with our campus security and their method of ' giving out parking violations. As a commuter who goes to classes four nights a week, I ajways park at the meters at the Main circle between Crosby and Foster..From the beginning of the semester until tonight (April 25), I never once received a ticket. I also never saw anyone else receiving one either, even though it said, “violation” on their meters, as well as in mine. Well, now that daylight savings has gone into effect, the folks down at security figured it was safe to leave their cars to start giving out tickets for overtime parking at 7:30 p.m. They are 100% correct in giving out those tickets, but why after 4 months did they decide to start now? This question bothered me, so I called up Main St. security and thought they might have an explanation. The girl who answered my call informed me that writing tickets wasn’t their only job, they were usually busy handling emergency calls. I was’feeling sorry for them, thinking that after 4 months of emergencies, 4 nights a week (when I had my classes), they deserved a raise. Then I remembered seeing the police cars parked in the corner of Goodyear Lot, just sitting there in the middle, of the day doing nothing. I also thought of all the cars parked in the circle in front of Goodyear despite the no parking anytime signs, none of them with tickets. Then finally, I recalled my car parked in the Goodyear Lot, broken into and my tape deck and CB stolen. I realized that this wasn’t their responsibility, but if they are not performing their duties, or worse still, if they only sometimes enforce the laws, something is wrong. The officer I spoke to said I should consider myself lucky for not getting pther tickets in 4 months. I don’t think I’m so lucky. Security should enforce all laws consistently, not decide one day it’s against the law and the next it’s okay to park because they don’t feel like writing a ticket. Maybe they should stick to handling their emergencies the flashers in Harriman Library? — Confused Motorist Washington, D.C. 203,01 Your Local or National Labor Leader or Professional Organization Head. » Gene Grabiner Assistant Professor Copping out To the Editor. In reference to the letter on April 29.thof James Stegmap; I think that using Campus Security as the object of ridicule is a cop out. The officers of University Police take commands from elected officials, and we should cast our vote more carefully. The, officials that we vote for are responsible for the action of any Campus Security officer. If you asked that officer fpr his or her job, 1 am positive we would get an affirmative answer; their job is no bargain'. No private insurance company will insure a police officer due to the stressful nature of their occupation. t I do not support loitering, and I thank Campus Security for keeping loitering off the campus. I think that the Police Blotter serves a beneficial function for the campus, f.e., we now know what is happening. I don’t think sexual freedom is a form of loitering when it benefits the campus on the whole, including masturbating, which is against the state Many thanks law. I believe it is a victimless crime.

After reading both Monday’s and Wednesday’s issues of The Spectrum I have come to a carefully [well thought out opinion, that 1 find necessary to share with mv fellow students. First of all, I would like to state that 1 publicly support the idea (please note, I said idea) of college credit instead of a stipend for those active in student government. However, in its present form the Leverendum is not, can not, and will never be my idea of college credit for student government. What the Leverendum asks us as students to do is to dissolve the present student government and replace it with a series of what Lev calls “Government In Action” courses. What it does not state (and I repeat, does not) is that who is scheduled to teach the first course: no one but our sponsor Lev. Furthermore, the summer course is not even a recognized course, because DUE has not decided on it yet, but who can blame DUE when a 37-year-old ex-fruit vendor who has no more of the necessary skills to teach the course than say Atilla the Hun tries to push this bullshit by them. Simply stated the Leverendum calls for the , HOURS: R-illiards ■ ipping on the Wrapper '<> abolishment of SA and the awarding of the $900,000 budget to Lev for disbursement under his guidance. In this form, there is no way that 1 will vote for it, because if 1 am going to pay $67 a year in student fees, then goddammit I want to have a say in how it is spent. While our present form of government is not the best that we can possibly have, it is still better than the one Lev proposes. It is time that all students realize that Lev is trying to take out all his political frustrations on us, the undergraduates. It is time that Lev realize that if he can’t play by the rules, then he should not play at all. (This refers to his recall David L. Seitelmen JT-. 'til 4 a.m. and Jukebox 836-8905 3178 BAILEY AV6.

Furthermore, I would like to say that if any of my fellow students have seen Lev give his rap in Haas under the title of the “Cosmic Wrapper” then they know that his real name should be the “Cosmic Crapper.” Therefore, fellow Students, it is time to stick up for your rights, and to tell Lev where he can go with his petitions and his desires for power. — <a’i PL AC a 1 OPEN AT LAST 656 Millersport at Eggert LARGEST VARIETY HOT & COLD SUBS - Open Daily 12 midn igh t Friday & Saturday 10 a.m. l a.m. Sunday 4 p.m.—12 midnigh t 10 a.m. — 1%.

Wednesday, 4 May 1977 214 Squire Hall by Friday, May 6th. to �I UB track club wins 1977 Big Four Conference Paul Cizdziel.'and intermediate hurdler junior Greg Willis. by Jeffrey John Spectrum Staff Writer Earlier in' the year, Buffalo’s track team was all but written off as a possible local track power. In fact their veVy existence was in serious doubt. However, it is now apparent that someone forgot to inform coach Walter Gantz and the team that they were “out of it.” Saturday at Buffalo State the University of Buffalo track club humbled the varsity teams of Buffalo State, Niagara University, and Canisius College to earn the title of 1977 Big Four Conference Track and Field Champion. Riding the wake of a surprise victory (the Bulls thought Buffalo State would win) in the 440 yard relay the Bulls amassed 58 points while State scored 49, Niagara 48, and Canisius 23. Comprising the victorious relay team were senior Paul Kubicki, sophomore Larry Williams, and freshmen Barry Calder and Bob Reiss. Gantz overjoyed 1 Besides the relay the Bulls had four other individual conference champions. They are senior shot putter Walter Halady, high hurdler Larry Williams, freshman pole vaulter Buffalo’s coach Walter Oantz Said before Saturday’s meet, “We’re getting tired of losing these things. It’s not that winning is the most important thing, it just happens to be that aspect of competing I find most enjoyable.” Gantz obviously found the meet enjoyable and although he is considered very strict regarding training rules, he and advised his team to “go out and celebrate tonight you have, my permission to get drunk.” Gantz, an associate professor in the Speech Communications Department, donates his spare time to train and organize the Bulls’ track club. His devotion and spirit personify what seems to be a growing interest and excitement about track and sports in general at Buffalo. The Bulls’ track squad has been growing in size and quality every week. One of the main reasons for Saturday’s win was that for the first time in two years Buffalo had men entered in every single event and, in another new development, Buffalo was successful in scoring points in every one. New athletes who contributed substantially to the Bulls’ win'were freshmen field event men Tom Ertmann, Mike Bader, Tpm Egan, Nick Saccomano, and John Jaremko. New freshmen runners Eric Luckman and Steve Dickoff also contributed. Dickqff had been training for the .. .. —John school’s intramural track meet when he decided to try out for the team. He not only easily made the tqam but helped score six points while competing in two events Saturday. Veterans come through The bulk ,of Saturday’s scoring came from Buffalo’s seasoned track veterans. Scoring in the distance runs were senior John Ryerson, sophomore Mike Fischer, and freshman Kenneth Dole. Scoring in the 440 and mile relay were freshman Mark Hines and junior Pete Schiffler. Sprinters Reiss and Kubicki added points in both the 100 and 220. The win Saturday gave the Bulls a 44 record. Chances for a winping record this season are excellent as the Bulls will wrap up their dual meet schedule next Saturday against the same teams. “We’re looking ahead to next year,” said Gantz. “Next year both cross country and track will regain varsity status. Virtually any Buffalo student who can make it to the team meetings will make the team.” Gantz urges all interested students to contact him via the Speech Communications Department if interested in competing next year. “When the next season begins, we’ll be ready!” .Gantz said. Bulls trounce Buff State 16-5 by Joy Clark Assistant Sports Editor The baseball Bulls walloped the Bengals of Buffalo State, 16-5 Sunday at Peelle Field. The Bulls needed only nine hits to score all those runs, but were helped out by the Bengals’ three errors and 14 walks. Freshman Luke Owens started for the Bulls. After an easy first inning, Owens got in trouble in the second and allowed a run on a walk and a double. He, got the side out 1-2-3 in the third and held the Bengals scoreless in the fourth before tiring in the fifth. After getting the first out on a grounder, Owens walked Mike Guerrucci. The next batter flied out, but then Frank Brown beat out an infield grounder for a single. Paul Mangano walked to load the bases. Frank Badaloto stroked a single up the center to score Guerrucci and Brown. At that poir nl, Owens was Rick Brooks replaced Owens (who lett the game of the-win). Brooks got the th the inning on a pop-up. In the next inning, Joe Jacob, outfielder George I'll is and Guerricci walked with one out. Mike Chiorando sacrificed Jacob home and Ellis scored on an error by thirdbaseman Ed Durkin to close out the siscoring for one out shy Buffalo State. to teammate Barry Larry Williams, shown here passing the baton Calder, had a fine day at the Big Four track and field Championships Saturday. Williams, who is our Athlete-of-the-Week, picked up a win in the 120 yard "high hurdles and ran a leg of Buffalo's yictoriousJlOO yard relay team. No contest Meanwhile, Buffalo was running up their score. first, Phil Ganci homered after Mike Dixon the In reached first on an error. In the third, Jim Wojcik got on first after an error and later scored on Jack Kaminska’s sacrifice fly. In the fourth, Mike Groh, John Pederson and Durkin walked with one out. After Groh was forced out at the plate by Wojcik’s ground ball, Pederson and Durkins scored on Joe Vizzi’s double. Kaminska then drove in Wojcik and Vizzi with a single. The Bulls scored another four runs in the fifth without getting a hit. Starting' pitcher Vic Talarico walked the first five batters to score two runs, Talarico was replaced by shortstop Brown. Wojcik, the first batter Brown faced, was hit by a pitch, and another run scored. One out later, Kaminska hit a sacrifice fly that scored the last run of the inning. At that point, with the score 11-5, it Was no contest. although Buffalo scored five more times in the inning The big hitters for Buffalo were Vizzi, Dixon and Kaminska. Vizzi got two long hits, a double and a triple, while Dixon raised his team-leading average to .433 with a single and a double. Kaminska knocked in four runs with a single and two sacrifice flies. Ganci’s homerurn was his fourth of the year. The Bulls scored in every inning except the second. The Buffalo pitchers got a workout, too. After Brooks pitched an inning and a third, sophomore Ron Nero came in in the seventh and pitched an inning. Junior Dave Borsak finished up the game tor the Bulls. Brooks picked up the win. week, gives the Bulls an edge in the Big Four Championships next weekend. So far, Buffalo has beaten all of its Big Four opponents by at least ten runs.

Berdennikov, of the Permanent Mission of the USSR to the United Nations (U.N.). His presentation Thursday evening at the Buffalo Forum on Disarmament in the Fillmore Room is the first of three planned events. Berdennikov noted that everybody would lose because “human civilization would perish under the radioactive ashes.” The series of events were organized to facilitate an “open exchange of ideas” about disarmament, according to Philosophy Professor James Lawler, who is the chairman of the forum. On successive Thursday evenings, a speaker from the U.N. Center for Disarmament, and one from the United-States Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, will make presentations. ’ Berdennikov, a Soviet disarmament expert, said the Soviet Union is extremely interested in developing relations with the United States based on the agreements that were reached in the period from 1972-1974. Detente in the political sphere must be “backed up” by detente in the military field, he said. Calling the problem of arms limitation and “paramount importance,” disarmament of Berdennikov also expressed concern about the “considerable portion” of human and material resources he said that are wasted for the “tools of annihilation. Misplaced blame? Berdennikov cited several agreements that have been reached in the past by the United States and the USSR, including the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons treaty, as positive cooperative efforts. However, he said the current impasse in the bilateral Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT) negotiations between the two countries is being incorrectly presented to the public by the Western press as the fault of the Soviet Union. Berdennikov said the U.S. and USSR agreed at Vladivostok 1974 to ban the development erf all new types of strategic offensive weapons and to conduct 'relations on the principle of “equal security” and on maintaining a stable “balance of strategic forces.” But Berdennikov claimed recent ,U-.S. proposals put forward by Cyrus Vance violate the Vladivostok agreements because the U.S. has since developed a new strategic offensive weapon (the cruise missile) and wants it excluded from the current discussions. The U.S. in turn has pointed to the Soviet Backfire bomber as a new strategic offensive —continued on page 2— The SpECTI^UM Vol. 27, No. 80 State University of New York at Buffalo Monday, 2 May 1977 Amherst Campus SteinEut announces end to State constructionfreeze by Tom Batt Contributing editor Stanley Steingut,, Speaker of the State Assembly, announced at a .dinner here Thursday evening that the state is going to work immediately to market $12.6 million in construction bonds for the restart of the Amherst Campus construction. The announcement followed a declaration earlier that day by Donald Cielewich, Regional Director of the Marine Midland Bank, that five local banks would buy the first S3 million in short-term notes, bringing the total to $15.6 million. The state had demanded the local S3 million commitment as a prerequisite to its release of the $12.6 million. Though financeers are not presently lined up for the larger sum, Erie County Democratic Chairman Joseph Crangle said that state officials had a tentative list of buyers. Number one priority Steingut’s proclamation signals the end of a construction freeze which for two years has kept the future of the Amherst campus uncertain. “All things being equal,” said Steingut, “we in the Legislature are dedicated to working with you and seeing the whole construction process expedited as soon as. possible.” The Assembly leader’s appearance follows a Wednesday announcement by the SUNY Board of Trustees in which it reaffirmed the Amherst Campus as the number one priority on its list of construction projects. The $12.6 million is part of $56.6 million allocated by the Legislature over the past two years for the Amherst Campus. The money was not spent because of the state-imposed freeze on building. The money, which must be acquired soon if builders are to take advantage of the entire construction season, will be used to complete the Biology Greenhouse, a service building, a warehouse, roads, a utility network, and landscaping. Steingut said it could be two months before the state funds come through. Three other buildings the Music Hall, the Chamber Hall, and the Educational Communications — Center will be financed by federal monies if Congress passes President Carter’s $4 billion Public Worlds Bill, New gym imminent Representatives of the local construction trades estimate that 600 construction workers could be on the job at Amherst within 60 days if the’state acts swiftly to supply the SI2.6 million. One structure which is through the planning state, but at present has no funding, is the Physical Education field house and locker facility. Dropped from the Carey budget last January, the Legislature was unable to restore the athletic facility in its amendments. Officials here, however, are now working to get it reinstated in the Supplemental Budget which will be passed this summer in the Legislature. “I went into the Bubble and was terribly dismayed,” said Steingut. “In, fact, 1 was embarrassed. 1 promise you, we will add your gym to the list of needed construction.” Saved the other half Preceeding Steingut at the podium, several local construction leaders, noting an unemployment rate among their trades as high as 85 percent in certain areas, urged Steingut to act immediately in getting the new infusion of construction cjollars in Amherst. “Mr. Speaker, we exhort you to resume construction,” said Donald Blair, President of the Building and Construction Trades Council. “We cannot afford to wait.” Local economists and business leaders feel that the resumption of construction at the new campus will be a significant stimulus of Buffalo’s depressed economy. General unemployment here ranges from 11 to 14 percent. University President Robert Ketter, after citing the need to complete Amherst before the conversion of the Main Campus to a health science can take place, presented Steingut with half a construction cap —symbolizing the new campus’ half-complete state. “We’ve saved the other half,” said Ketter, “and when the campus is finished, we’ll be happy to present it to you.” The Speaker of the State Assembly, Stanley Steingut, at three junctures in his tour of the 40 percent completed Amherst Campus; being presented with one-half a construction helmet by President Robert Ketter (top); on the inside of the Bubble (middle); at bat in improvised softball game outside the Ellicott Complex. Steingut announced an end to the state construction freeze at a dinner Thursday night. �r Sub Board I, Inc. Amherst Diy. People’s Power Coalition Buffalo State conference willfocus on public utilities “A conference on the energy crisis and its solutions,” is taking place next weekend. Sponsored by the People’s Power Coalition (PPC), the Saturday May 7 conference at the Buffalo State Student Center will deal with publically owned power in general, one of the most effective moves for lower rates. The grass roots organizing for greater control over the nation’s utilities has been the suprisingly fast growing movement of the 70’s. A part of this trend, Buffalo has witnessed the growth of the Western New York PPC, a group of community organizations working for rational energy use, to the benefit and under the control of the large number of average people who must use utility services to live. Organizers to speak The conference, which has a $2 registration fee for low income persons, has the purpose of “developing ah energy program which the people of Buffalo can fight for, centered around conservation, renewable sources of energy, and community/worker control.” Another main purpose is to “focus attention on the advantages of public ownership and control of local utilities.” Scheduled events include speakers on a fairer rate structure (emphasizing the needs of the poor), the actual nature of the energy crisis, and how to plug into the local efforts for change. Organizers for public power, activities in the energy movement, environmentalists, and union representatives are among those who will talk. Also to take place will be numerous workshops concerning topics such as conservation of energy, the evils of nuclear power and natural gas pHce deregulation, alternative sources of energy, and on various aspects of public power. Concluding the conference will be a speech on “Building the energy movement in Buffalo,” and a mayoral panel, in which candidates “will be given five minutes to discuss their support or .opposition to public power and a winterization program for Buffalo.” The day Will end with a 9:00 party at the Gold Spring Warehouse, 167 Leroy Avenue at the corner of Fillmore. Tire varied and exciting music of the Outer Circle Orchestra will entertain the conference goers. Interested persons can call 856-8469 for further information or transportation.

Simpson reported that the Peace Center, in Backfire bomber is not a strategic offensive weapon because the weapon is not capable of delivering Buffalo, as well as similar organizations around the nuclear warheads to the U.S. He said it was only country, has been working to cut the military designed to counter U.S. .missiles that are presently budget. Instead, Carter asked for an “$11 billion stationed on American forward bases in Europe, So increase in the military budget.” that the U.S. proposal to exclude both the cruise Simpson said that the American people are told missile and the Backfire bomber from the current that the Soviet army is bigger, that their arms are greater, and that they are ready to wage nuclear war talks would clearly give the U.S. an advantage. Berdennikov explained that the Soviet Union against the United States. “Is this true,” he asked? insists on the “strict limitation” of this new strategic offensive weapon, not because the U.S. would have a No incentive Berdennikov said that it wasn’t true, charging monopoly on this new weapon, but because it will only fuel the arms race. “Life has shown us that the that the military-industrial complex in the U.S. has a Soviet Union has always succeeded in catching up vested interest in escalating the arms race for private with the U.S. in the development of new weapons,” profits. In the USSR, no one privately owns the Berdennikov said. “In every case, the U.S. is first. means of military production, he said. All economic Americans develop it, deploy it, and we follow to processes are owned by the people through their keep up.” Berdennikov cited the atomic bomb, the representatives in the state government. Since no one ballistic missile, , and the MIRVed missile as can profit from military, production, there is no examples. incentive to produce weapons. Berdennikov noted that several American Berdennikov also pointed out that the Soviet leaders in various fields have spoken out against what Union lost 20 million people in the Second World he called the one-sided proposals of the Carter W'ar, and have no interest suffering those kind of Administration.

It is the common impression in this country that the Soviet Union, if not already militarily superior to the United States, is at least near to being so. Widely dispensed in the U.S. media, the statistics always seem to support that assertion; the figures have usually been uncritically reprinted from Pentagon sources. But those figures falsify the picture in two major ways: in comparing only the U.S. to the USSR instead of U.S./NATO to the USSR and its East European allies; and in using figures that selectively omit mention of comparitive quality or quantity. A good example of both techniques is found in military arguments that “Soviet military manpower is now more than double U.S. forces,” using the words of former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. ... (i Inflated figures It is true that the United States has a military of,2.1 million persons, compared to 4.8 million in the Soyiet armed forces. Unmentioned is that, according even to the Defense Department’s own intelligence' agency, two million of those Soviet personnel perform duties carried out by civilians here. Fpr example, 430,000 Soviet troops are used to patrol borders, and for internal security. In the U.S., these people are in the National Guard, or the Immigration and Naturalization Service, and are not considered part of the U.S. military. About 250,000 other Soviet soldiers are construction workers, doing work that in this country is contracted out to civilian construction companies. Using comparable figures, then, the numbers gap is considerably less: apprpximately 2.1 million U.S. personnel to 2.8 million Soviet. What even this comparison does not take into account, of course, are the forces of the two superpowers’ European allies: the combined troop strength of the 12 major NATO allies, excluding the U.S., is about 3 million. By contrast, the combined troop strength of the Eastern European Warsaw Pact countries, excluding the USSR, is roughly 1.100,000. • Soviet Navy weaker Perhaps the most spectacular assertion made in the entire debate has been the charge that the Soviet Union has now replaced the United States as the world’s foremost naval power. And, with a total of 232$ ships, the Soviet Navy would indeed appear to have the edge over the *478 vessel U.S. fleet. But once again, the figures are deceptive. The great bulk of the 2000 plus figure consists of small coastal ships and escort vessels. Much more to the point is a comparison of total tonnage and firepower. In these terms, U.S. naval superiority is abundantly clear. The U.S. fleet, with 13 giant aircraft carriers and a total of 179 major combat surface ships, has roughly twice the tonnage of the Soviet fleet. “Just one of this nation’s aircraft carriers,” declares a former Pentagon systems analyst, “contains more effective firepower in terms of bombs and missiles, than all the firepower on all the 1000 plus ton ships in the entire Soviet fleet.” One of the few areas of actual Soviet superiority is in submarines, 270 compared to 152 American. But the edge in crucial nuclear powered attack subs is less; 80 to 65, and since 1966, U.S. annual production has been 8 to the Soviet 7. « JEWISH STUDENT UNION presents "NATURAL BLEND" U.S. airpower overwhelming Finally, in the area of airborne nuclear power, the major topic of discussion during Thursday’s Fillmore Room panel on disarmament [see page one article], U.S. strength is clearly overwhelming. A comparison of the numbers of missiles 2350 Soviet to 1710 American is the basis for plaintive military whimpering that the United States will lose an air war. What is not taken into account, however, is that the U.S. has many more warheads on its missiles than the USSR, has many more planes capable of dropping nuclear bombs on Soviet soil, and maintains a ring of nuclear installations which go right up to the Soviet border. “Altogether,” according to Lee Aspin, a member of the House Armed Services Committee, “the U.S. can hit the Soviet Union with 8500 nuclear weapons, while the Soviets have only 2800 at their disposal.” None of this is to suggest that Soviet military might is not growing. In the past 20 years the Soviet armed forces have developed at a spectacular rate. But to suggest at this time that the U.S. has somehow become number two in military prowess or in its willingness to use that might is either a call to jingoism and an aggressive foreign policy, or downright irresponsible. In either event, it hardly corresponds to facts. Country Rock at its Finest!! Saturday Nite, May 7th — — at 9:00 pm Millard Fillmore Room 50c Admission — - FREE BEER AND WINE!

Now I admit that I have been known to carry pictures of Woody in my wallet; true, I once wrote a vituperative letter to The Spectrum accusing a staff plagiarizing of writer the comedian. It is even correct that I often identify with the fact that Woody wears glasses and is particularly ugly. But regardless of the fapt that I am a self-confessed Allenphile, my following critique of Annie Hall is a purely objective attempt at setting Allen into a sociological focus, as opposed, that is, to salivating all over the page about him. Of course, if you believe that, I’ve also got “some land in New Jersey up for sale.” With WHO SET UP SB & RUNS THE STUDENT HEALTH PHARMACY? the * Journey through issues Annie Hall is a landmark film for Woody. In addition to ionly bpng hysterically funny (“Masturabation is sex with someone I really love.”), the film journey . through is a the emotional and intellectual issues which dominate the spirit of our times. In no particular'order, the film deals with relationships, love, intellectualism, self-actualization, the decadence of the West Coast, the nucleav family, Anglo-Saxonism, Anti-Semitism, and,- of course, sex. But it is the way in which Annie Hall confronts these ideological issues which gives the film its essence.‘Through a variety of mutli-media techniques, Woody has created the perfect paradigm for life in the Seventies, a time when our fantasies are in tension with the realities of our neuroses. With neither the Chaplinesque slapstick of Sleeper, nor the intellectual esoterica of Love and Death, Annie Hall succeeds in portraying the true agony of life. Although Woody is adverse to acknowledge any ‘themes’ in his work, I defy anyone to leave the theater without re-evaluating his own relationships, his past, and to a certain extent his comic future. * Illuminates paradoxes Life is taken seriously in Annie Hall. Both Diane Keaton (who is remarkably effective as Annie) the illupiinate and Allen inherent our in paradoxes dreadful existence. At one point in the film, Woody is urging Annie to take adult education courses so can further her mind. But that Annie’s romantic involvefnent with her professor F met by Allen’s assertion that adult education is meaningless. It is these conflicts and man’s ultimate inability to control them Which is at the heart of the film. But the importance of Annie Hall is that the comedy not only poses the questions, but it helps the viewer enjoy finding answers. The superficiality of a couple’s first encounter is burst open by the use of subtitles which reveal the actual intent of the speakers. At another point in the film, o fA'NG c O/,. . Fantasize to escape The humor in Annie Hall not only prevents the viewer from growing dfespondent over the epistemological questions posed, it also reveals an intrinsic part of Woody Allen’s and Marshall Brickman’s (co-writer) defense mechanism. Rather than the of materialization McLuhan seeming absurd, it comes off as a comic antidote to the strain of society on the individual. Allen once said that he lives in a “rich fantasy world” and it is that mythical environment which keeps him from totally cracking up. Jules Feiffer uses tap dancing as a metaphor for that very same defense. Indeed, we all fantasize for the purpose of escape in one form or another. It is Woody Allen who wants us to recognize, refine, and defend our fantasies against the encroachment of cosmic tentacles. Inventions” on the piano. And who never said, ‘Oh, wow,’ or wore anything marked Pucci or Gucci or listened to country and western dialogue music or But even if this radio. exists Goddess Allen’s in literature, she cannot exist for long. Love and relationships are transient and Woody will not ajlow himself to forget that painful lesson, even if it is “only a . Ideal woman transient But enough of these dabblings in psycho-societal interpreation. Annie Hall is ultimately a love st-ory, one man’s search for a story.” And so Annie Hall ends a little sad, a lot funny, and with a fair amount of food for thought. But I am certain that the comedian of companion and the universal flaw the seventies would not want us -to dwell upon the finer aspects of whether or not we exist.

Hassan King the notion of a large invasion, claiming only that ‘*20-30 member groups” had penetrated from Angola for months. Left wing reporters in Africa, however, have reported that the rebellion began with the return to Zaire of many exiled Katanganese the patriots, radicalized by Angolan civil war last year. They had originally fled Zaire mpre than ten years ago during the civil, strife that eventually brought Mobutu to power. Their return, according to informed sources, sparked a popular uprising that very quickly posed a grave threat contradicted to the'government’s power. Asserted to this day in the traditional press is the strength of Zaire’s 40,000 man army. The left press has consistently reported on the army’s, disintegration, mass desertions and even a large defection to the rebel forces. The sudden and massive French airlift of 1500 Morroccan troops, allegedly to be followed by an equal number if necessary, and the French strafing, bombing, and use of napalm on rebel held villages, indicating the situation fo be far more serious than the traditonal press has acknowledged regarding the month and a half old conflict. Other inaccuracies It was widely reported that the rebels were mostly members of a particular Zairean tribe, and allegedly fighting for seccesion from Zaire’s Shaba province. Eyewitness reports, however, indicate that the freedom fighters are multitribal, and in their own words, are battling for liberation from Mobutu’s “fascist Zaire’s dictatorship”, and by domination Western imperialism. In partial siipport to , these contentions, CIA participation in Zairean the conflict was implicated in a Los Angeles Times story oh mercenary recruitment in the United States. The Times reporter found that David Bufin, a former mercenary in Rhodesia Angola, and has admitted 80 Americans for recruitjng mercenary activities in Zaire,'paid for by $80,000 made available to him “by interested parties." Bufkin claims that he is working with the CIA,, though the agency denies it. In further revelations, the editor of the mercenary' magazine Soldier of Fortune told the large circulation left weekly The Guardian that “The CIA is so intertwinfcd with that whole aspect of our society (.mercenary recruitment) that they can’t help but be involved.” ■ Reasons for the massive Western support for the Zaire government are many, but it is clear that a stable, pro-Western Zaire is extremely significant to the Slafe Department’s plans for southern Africa. President Ford openly acknowledged that Zaire had been the conduit for U.S. aid to- the Western backed forces in Angola during its recent civil war. Zaire had also militarily supported the FNLA, a large CIA funded “liberation” movement in Angola. With the rapidly changing political situation in Rhodesia, Namibia, and South Africa, the continent’s three remaining white-ruled apartheid states, Zaire is important to U.S. plans for'a “moderate” solution to rising black anger. That solution has repeat'edly, stressed the neutralization of growing black militant movements. Specifically, a neutral progressive or government in Zaire would make more difficult U.S. involvement in southern Africa’s stabilization.

Page seven �EditPrml L_ More about Lev Put up the booths The Student-Wide Judiciary made a mistake last week ,in delaying the referendum on whether to re-form Student Association (SA) into a credit-granting course. The decision to uphold the Temporary Restraining Order submitted on behalf of SA by President Dennis Delia prevents the referendum from coming to a vote until a hearing is held between SA-officials and SA Elections and Credential Chairwoman, Gloria Gerber. Gerber feels the referendum is legal and we agree. The petition circulated by self-styled campus prophet Michael Stephen Levinson (Lev), is the first completed under the present SA Constitution. It clearly complies with the letter of the law in carrying the validated signatures of at least one-tenth the undergraduate population. We think the provisions in the Constitution which pertain to referenda are excellent in allowing ideas to be put before the student body with this admittedly minor requirement. Lev's success is not just a tribute to his persistancy, but an indication that there is a widespread dissatisfaction among the University students with those who administer the student activity fee. Members of the Delia administration feel unduly criticized at the beginning of their tenure. The criticism, though, is not directed only at this year's government. It is a response to a succession of medfocre leaders who have not only failed to capture the students' imagination, but have managed to earn their suspicion. Delia believes that a precedent should be set in which boundaries are formed on what are legal and illegal petitions under the Constitution. He has also said that the proposed referendum violates student activity fee guidelines approved by the SUNY Trustees. He's wrong on both points. Although there is no precedent for petitions submitted under this Constitution, setting one by introducing another criteria for what is a legal or illegal petition is tantamount to changing the rules in the middle of the game. We think Delia and the Student Senators who support his challenge ought to uphold the Constitution and not maneuver to circumvent it. Additionally, the only terms used in the existing activity fee guidelines to denote the administrator of the fee is the "representative student government." Delia's saying that such a- government fnust be elected is not confirmed anywhere in the existing guidelines. Besides, why would that be a reason not to honor a valid petition? We think Levinson erred in accepting Delia's logic that a course must exist before the referendum is held. This only served to confuse the government for course credit idea itself and its practicality, with whether a duly completed petition ought to be recognized and the Constitution executed. A Word of note: This is not an endorsement of the student government for course-credit idea. That concept, if approved, would pull the carpet out from under every service and agency currently funded by student activity fees, including this newspaper. We will put off any further discussion until it is before the students. Right now, the challenge by SA appears to be an obstruction until the semester runs out. The Student-Wide Judiciary has an obligation to see that this referendum is accomplished before we go home for the summer. Modifying the Constitution to stifle legal referenda and the ideas referenda carry is bad government. The petition rule and it is a good one must be respected. — — The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. 80 — Managing Editor Managing Editor Richard Korman — — Advertising Manager Business Manager AHs . Books . . .

Gilbert The Spectrum is To the Editor I am in Dr. Powell’s Sociology 101 class. Today, for the fourth or fifth time this semester, Michael Stephen Levenson came into our class to plead his case. After listening to him again, I began to wonder how many people who have signed his petition really know what will happen if the Student Association is abolished in favor of Lev's course? 1. The government course for credit that has been approved for the summer and is given by Tolstoy College is not a course in practical government. The content of this course, according to its description, is to study past S.A. administrations, not to be a new §.A. with all the powers, of that organization. If S.A. is abolished we w ill be left with a course without any power to accomplish anything. What happens to our money then? 2. To have a course implies the presence of a professor. This means the responsibility and control of our money will be supervised by a non-student. Presently, all control and authority within the government rests with the students. 3. Do you realize how much time it takes lo be a good officer or senator? Four credits will not come close to covering the hours spent on the' course, anymore than a stipend pays for that time. 4, The money for the professor has to come from somewhere, and a professor gets a salary not a stipend. With the budget as- tight as it is. what department is going to create a position and pav a professor to supervise an active student government (Remember, the course that exists, is not an actm organization.) 5 Forgetting the funding, what professor his right mind would" want to dedicate the hours necessary to accomplish all that needs to be done; Lev, today, in class, said he was not sure he wanted the job. Who else does? Why are we jeopardizing something that .works for something that doesn’t exist?

Although the members of Vico College are grateful for your article on' our new general education program, we would like to correct some misleading possibly statements. First, our distribution program is not “pending approval.” It isa fact: any student who wants a coherent general education program can take our basic courseswith no fear that changes in Iris major will require him to take other or additional courses. Our courses will serve as distribution for any major. Moreover, the college does not see its general education program as dispensing culture (we are not a pharmacy). Rather, our goal is to introduce students to some basic texts which have influenced the way men in Western culture perceive and respond to a variety of philosophical and aesthetic questions. Any more important, we hope'to teach in a coherent way the disciplines that allow us to respond fully to these texts and to understand how they can relate to contemporary questions. Your .article also gives the impression we are only a set of courses. Vico is* not simply addressing the problem of coherent general educations courses. Its ambition is to provide a full university life integrating academics with a' lively and serious residential program. And finally, we would like to suggest that your reportorial tone overlooks the seriousness of our experiment. We, feel it is crucial that these courses draw considerable numbers of interested students, if only to spur the University on to creating a series of general education options. We would be very grateful, then, if interested students either write us or come talk to us about their views on our program or their desires for other ways of constructing general education. Charles Altieri Chairman of the Fellows by the Graduate Student Association ft is mandated by the SUNY Board of Trustees that a referendum be conducted every four years among the -graduate students to determine whether the student fee should be collected on a mandatory or voluntary basis. This is one of those years. In essence this means it is up to the graduate students to decide whether or not their student government and the representation and services it provides shdll continue. The Graduate Student Association is the student organization which is responsible for graduate student government and activities on this campus. It is the liason w<th other student organizations, both state and national, for example, SASU and NSL, and it provides funds for the departmental student clubs, for individual GRAD projects, for access to 1 athleticfacilities, and for Sub-Board privileges. Most important, the GSA, both as an independent entity and through representation in the administrative structure of the university itself, is the advocate for graduate student interests'. Though the-administration often limits participation, even to the> epart of inadequacy, the GSA provides represenatives to university committees which define University policies. (or These advise' on) representatives, who are responsible to the GSA, which is in turn responsible to the graduate studenUbody, provide the only official input grad students have into the administrative proceedings of the university. And when this representation itself is insufficient. GSA can advocate graduate student views outside “official" structure. Without the GSA this advocacy is severely diminished. At the present time this fee is S9.5Q per semester ($19.00 per year) and is collected on a mandatory basis. These monies are administered by the Graduate Student Association and this year totaled $123,233. The disbursement of these funds is roughly as follows: .' Sub-Board 1: (concerts, movies, pharmacy, family planning clinic The Spectrum, h.thas, housing office, dental and legal services) 31.8 percent Department Clubs: (conference fees, speakers, films', entertainment) 29.3 percent 1 2.0 percent Secretarial-Expenses Research & Speical Activities(individual grad projects;-forums, other research) I 1.0 percent Graduate Student Association: expenses, publicity, stipends, transportation. Grad Post, handbook) 8.1 percent External & Student Affairs Fees: (SASU, SARB, legal, NSL, foreign, minorities, (operating women) 6.8 percent If the mandatory collection of the fees is not this year, the GSA will virtually cease to exist. students feel that this If graduate representation and the services provided should be continued, it is important that they vote to approve the mandatory collections. It is also important that they simply vote. The Trustees’ referendum requires that at least 10% of the graduate students approve. Now, it is up to us to decide. The referendum will be conducted from May 2nd to 6th. Ballots will be distributed to each approved department and balloting sites set up at each department and at the GSA office. If you have any questions, please call the GSA at 831-5505, or come over to 205 Norton. TRB See the bright yellow ore: just the thing for a child to make into mudpies; it is< called “yellow-cake;” it contains uranium, the key ingredient in the nuclear process. Uranium produces plutonium, a man-made substance aptly named for Pluto, the Greek god of the underworld. The Old Testament had another name for him and the place where he lived; in both cases he was the tempter. Today plutonium is the tempter, too; it may give us unlimited energy from its breeder-reactor. Or it may \ destroy us. ’ There's a grotesque touch about the whole affair. That bomb we dropped on Hiroshima, for example, in 1945; it essentially destroyed a city of 300.000. The bomb that did that had the sardonic name “Little Boy.” And the same whims went with the bpmb on Nagasaki ' that killed or wounded 80,000: it wgs “Fat Man.” (Flying away from Hiroshima Captain Parsons wrote in his logue that he saw behind him a cloud "40.000 feet high” and he never lost sight of it for “36.3 miles.”) Jimmy Carter is the first nuclear engineer to he President and the only one. I believe, ever to head a government anywhere. This coming'week he Hies to a summit conference in London 1 where he will, tell European leaders; among other things why he wants to delay development of plutonium as a future source of nuclear energy. Let it wait, he says. Proliferation was the subject of the first major foreign policy address- of the Carter election campaign. In a formal statement he came back to it with remarkable decisiveness on April 7. Hoy do you restrain the further spread of sensitive technologies which entail “direct access to plutonium, highly enriched uranium and other material fitted for weapons,” he asked and at the same time retain “the tangible benefits of nuclear power.” This question, he said. “1 have had under review from my first day in office.” Most of us probably weren't thinking about it. He has closed down breeder plants and asked other countries to do the same. By coincidence, on May 4 just before the President leaves for Europe. Richard Nixon gives the first of four exculpatory TV interviews with David Frost. Will we get another “lift of a driving dream?” He probably won't go into the subject of breeder reactors, which he endorsed. To be fiar to him, his endorsement followed the conventional wisdom of four years ago which was a lifetime in nuclear development. “At present,“Nixon told Congress on April 18, 1973. “development of the liquid metal fast breeder reactor is our highest priority target.” He also praised the “extraordinary safety record” of the nuclear program. Some day in his retirement he might read John G. Fuller’s book. We Almost Lost Detroit, which tells of six accidents at nuclear power plants since * - . 1952, culminating in the melt-down of the radium-active core of a plutonium-producing breeder-reactor 30 miles from Detroit and Toledo. Four million people went blithely about their business while engineers tinkered withe the Enrico Fermi reactor, unaware that a' mistake could trigger a nuclear explosion. The mind-numbing technological complexity made the press largely ignore the accident. In the same way they are today ignoring a series of colorlessly written official reports indicating that before lortg terrorists will probably get the bomb. As to Detroit, it was abput a month before the engineers cautiously decided that a local “little boy” would not, after all, explode. Mr. Carter is still much of a mystery to the government leaders he will see in Europe. (He is still a bit of an enigma also at home.) His decision to put plutonium on the shelf, for the time being at least, as a source of nuclear energy, causes suspicion and 'anxiety all the way from Tokyo to Iran and Brazil. The United States has lots of coal and uranium for fuel even if its oil runs dry they say: it is trying to create a capitalistic monopoly of nuclear fuel for itself, by cracking down on a certain type of reactor for less favored countries that has the incredible potential, when. perfected, of producing more fuel than it consumes? It is true that this breeder reactor also produces plutonium which is specially adapted for bombs. But isn’t that merely an excuse for a hypocritical United States to dominate the rest of the world? Mr. Carter’s appeal for support in his April 7 statement got a cool reception abroad. The Carter drive is directed against plutonium, not uranium, the conventional fuel used in most nuclear reactors. Uranium is costly but once it is “burned” it can' be chetbically processed to separate out the hy-product plutonium. Plutonium-239 probably is the most toxic substance known. A milligram inhaled will kill a man in hours. This devilish stuff also kernels bombs. Also, if and when it can be harnessed, it runs wheels, makes power and lights cities. That is the kind of gift that Pluto has tossed into our laps. Thp nomenclature of the nuclear age, incidentally, is driving , reporters nuts. What right-thinking Washington political writer knows the difference between “fission” and "fusion?” Or can distinguish between “light-water” and "heavy-water” reactors? These terms are getting into our hair, our lives, our language, and even, maybe, our politics. Take QUAD, for example; it thrust itself upon this qualiling reporter when he was trying to masticate: the Ford Foundation’s Nuclear Power Issues and Choices a $6.95 Ballinger paperback which is just on the verge of being comprehensible. A QUAD is a measurement of energy consumption: the U.S. now uses 74 Quads a year, and a single Quad is the equivalent of 1000 trillion BTU’s or, to put it cosily the energy from 500,000 barrels of oil a day for one year. Modern civilization is quad-crazy; the U.S. may use 110 to 120 Quads by Al) 2000. and other countries likewise. At that point we may need breeder reactors. But the blue-ribbon Ford Foundation panel pleads that we defer it “indefinitely,'’ in view of “terrorist” and other dreadful dangers. So does Jimmy Carter. Monday, 2 May 1977 . The Spectrum .

Control of health and business areas were cited as legalization’s major advantages. Prostitution was as much a part of the early West as the miners, cowboys and town preacher. Since many towns had few women, prostitution was inevitable, on the frontier, where sexual lust may have been as great as that for gold. Since prostitution was outlawed in numerous states in the twentieth century, it had to go underground. Nevada is one of the few states in the United States where it is either legal or openly tolerated. It is not legal in all of Nevada; only in certain designated areas. Symanski is convinced that the “Nevada approach” has considerable merit and so do most of the people ofNevada. - Prices vary In some areas there is an age restriction of 18 to 21, a work permit requirement, fingerprinting, photographing, and an extensive medical examination required for working prostitutes. These regulations are not always adhered to, but they are 'designed to protect customers from venereal diseases and women with previous criminal records dr who are drug addicts. These rules and regulations provide some of the best arguments for its legalization. The brothels themselves are also highly restricted; they must be enclosed by a fence, and are limited to minimal advertising. According to Symanski, prices vary. In larger brothels, girls get more business and know they can demand higher prices while in smaller houses the client is in a much better bargaining position. Waitresses, secretaries, sales people and university students are among those who become prostitutes. The principal motive for the chance in employment is money. simulcast time (having the same run simultaneously on both A,M and FM) must be reduced from 50 to 25 percent of broadcast tinie. He indicated that it is much easier to adhere to this ruling, by having WYSL on the AM dial, and WPHD on the FM band, with each station having a program separate identity. Taylor said that the differences between and WYSL WPHD programing include FM having no more album jingles, playing material, and having an altogether quieter approach. This mellower format is favored since research has suggested that people listen to FM longer and “you can’t shout at them.” According to Taylor, radio —Vazquez stations have to be bold if they want to get noticed, mainly because there are so many stations: 26 in Buffalo alone. WPHD/WYSL’s rating, as of the last Arbitron reading, was number one among teens. Taylor describes their AM audience as primarily 1 people who are interested in a good top 40 format, and their FM listeners as “anyone who wants to hear some new album cuts, but not lose the familiarity of of some good oldies and dibbles and dabbles of what’s being play on top 40.” He continued, “Basically, anyone from 18—80, or any human being alive.” Keep with times Taylor explained that he’s just make a living and is uncertain what he wants to do for the rest of his life. He claimed that “being a disc jockey becomes a guy trying to very difficult as you get older •because your age is so far above the audience you’re trying to appeal to, namely teens.” The problem heightens as the DJ becomes unacceptable to his Legalization favored Clients seemed to be as diverse as the prostitutes themselves. Some were truck drivers, college students, doctors, lawyers, married and unmarried. Some men felt that “diversity is a principal reason for going to a prostitute,” Said Symanski. In most Nevada brothels, the girls are “paid on the basis of what is requested and the amount of time spent with a girl.” A positive attitude toward legalized prostitution in Nevada is evident in the news media and by law enforcement officers and among people of all socioeconomic classes.

Rah! Sis, boom, bah! Hold that line! Hit’em again, harder - harder! Football has returned and the students are already getting excited. “1 think it’s the best thing that ever happened,” said one Buffalo coed. “I’m so excited.” “I can’t wait until it starts,” said a student at Ellicott. £ I' B | i 1 And it will probably start like this. The referee, standing in one of Rotary Field’s end zones, will hold his arm up, drop his arm and toot his whistle. The kicker will start towards the ball, as the crowd roars louder and louder. Then, with a dull thud, the ball will be airborne, flying end-over-end towards the receiver. And the roar will be deafehing. Yes, football is really back. This year’s bring-back-football movement, which worked so hard, succeeded, where similar movements each of the past several years, failed. But a lot of hard work remains. Things to do For example, there is still the problem of lack of adequate locker room space. There is the problem (which may or may not be serious) that only the stands on the Bailey Avenue side of Rotary Field are usable. There is the problem of trying to schedule additional games, finding assistant coaches, digging up all the old football equipment, preparing the game programs (“There goes my summer,” said Dick Baldwin, the man who prepares those programs) and oodles more. The students, too, look like they will be doing a great deal of work. Several have already begun Statistics box getting in shape for the team. And with Thur,sHay’s announcement, which made the team definite, a lot more students will begin getting in shape. And there are several students on campus with varsity football experience who will be around next year. Joe Previll, currently a junior here, was a lineman at C.W. Post. Rich Mott was a lineman and linebacker at Ithaca College. Paul Dimiero was a quarterback for Slippery Rock. And there is an unconfirmed rumor floating around The Spectrum office that a former quarterback at Navy is now a student here at Buffalo. There are probably others, too, as well as a myriad of high school football players who no doubt will help next year’s team. Good athletes Having a football team will probably help other teams on campus. Not immediately, but eventually. A football team attracts good athletes (even without Scholarships) who are quite often proficient in other sports as well. In the past, it was not rare to find football players also on Buffalo’s basketball, wrestling, baseball and track teams, John Stofa, who later went on to play professional football with the Miami Dolphins, was baseball captain at Buffalo as well as football star. Fran Woidzik, a Little All-American as a Bulls tackle, also earned letters in wrestling and track. It has been said that there is no school spirit here at Buffalo. A football team might change that. It would be nice to see people walking around who were proud to be a student here, especially after we beat Canisius. And we will beat Canisius, you know. After the games, there will be the inevitable well, you know what happens at parties, where parties.

In the two contests, the stickhandlers played the part of both goat and bull. “It was just a bad day all the way around,” said co-captain Herb Roisman about the Bulls’ performance against a superb Eisenhower squad. Roisman’s disappointment stemmed from the Bulls’ defeat at the hands of the Ikes on Saturday. The Bulls came out charging in the first period and took a 2-1 lead behind Frank Massaro and freshman standout William Higgs’ goals. But the Bulls’ edge was shortlived. When Higgs tallied his second goal of the afternoon in the second period, the Ikes retaliated with three goals of their own to take the lead 5-3 at halftime. From then on, the sticksters played considerably worse. The second half proved quite disastefous for Buffalo. Plagued by a wet and muddy field, the Bulls were as sloppy as the field. Due to the steady rain, the stickhandlers were forced to slow down the game, contrary to the Buffalo gameplan. This move only benefitted the host Eisenhower team. Because the Ikes offense revolves around a slowed down pattern, the Bulls were in effect aiding their opponents. Singing different tunes The third period saw the Ikes score four unanswered goals, lifting their lead to 9-3. The fourth period provided no new life for the Bulls as the dominant Eisenhower squad tallied four additional goals. Steve Hackling did score Buffalo’s final goal of the afternoon in a losing effort. After the game, Eisenhower coach Dave McNab commented “Today’s game would have been a different story if the field were dry.” McNab also noted that the Bulls’ fast moving running offense is superb on a normal day. The problem with the Bulls’ attack was their trouble in picking up ground balls, a fundamental attribute essential to lacrosse. In the sticksters next game against Niagara, the Bulls sang a different tune. In fact, the game could have been classified as the Holland Garrow Road Show. Garrow, indeed, put on a show sparking the Bulls to a 9-8 victory. When the opening period began, however, the Purple Eagles took the lead quickly and put a scar into the visiting Bulls. Garrow answered by scoring Buffalo’s two first period goals but the Bulls trailed 4-2 at the end of the period. Just as in the Bulls’ match against Eisenhower, the field was in sad shape, especially in front of the creases. Because of this, many of the sticksters shots on goal stuck in the Niagara mud, taking away the possibility of the bounce shot. Garrow a power Similar to tHe Ikes style of play, the Purple Eagles tried to create a slow-patterned offense. But the Bulls were not fooled twice. The halftime score was tied at five apiece behind Buffalo goals by Garrow, Rich Morgan and A.J. Russo, a former All-American star from Hobart College.

When Niagara tied the score at seven, Hackling answered the Eagle goal with one of his own, giving the Bulls the lead. Shortly thereafter, Roisman fired what proved to be the winning goal after another Eagle onslaught. The Niagara contest was well executed by the visiting Bulls. They did a good job picking up ground balls and the defense was particularly strong at clearing the ball to the mid-fielders. In addition, goalie George Talboys played an exceptional game under the circumstances. In spite of Garrow’s five goals, the victory was a total team effort “We all worked at getting the ball to him (Garrow) and he was smart enough to get open, but he was superb.” stated Roisman. The Bulls’ other captain Jack Simon and Massaro led the stickhandlers with three Niagara assists apiece.

Reiss Campus editor With the baseball season upon us, fails across the country are preparing themselves for events certain to occur. So The Spectrum, in its never ending quest to inform its readers, has compiled a list of these inevitabilities associated with the game of rounders. Jim Kaat and Johnny Bench will win the golden glove awards (whether they play or not). ■ Tom Seaver will complain about his salary (it’s $225,000/year). strike out 200 batters and explain four times on Kiners Korner that his fastball at 80 percent of its effectiveness is the very best in the game. Joe Garagiola will explain that Thurman tydunson throws better to second base when he throws overhand rather than sidearm. Charles 0. Finley will fire his manager, trade a high salaried player and get involved in a,law suit. The National League will win the All Star Game. Sandlot baseball It will be explained to the New York fans ad nauseum that it is sandlot baseball players and not the Yankees or the Mets who are the real winner of the Mayor’s Trophy Game. Pete Rose will get 200 hits. Reggie Jackson will liken himself to a candy bar. A ball will be fouled back “just below” the announcer. Baseball Will be described as a game of inches. Fenway Park will be described as cozy. Someone will make an assault on Roger Maris’ home run record in April and fall thirty home runs short. Mutual admiration society Sparky Anderson will describe everything involved in the Cincinnati Reds’ organization from the batboy to the clubhouse attendant as great. Johnny Bench will call Sparky Anderson the greatest manager in the history of baseball. Tommy Davis will be released, traded and sold. There will be dissention on the Red Sox. Phil Rizzuto will yell “Holy Cow.” Chris Chambliss will win five Polly-0 gamer awards. The Blue Jays and Mariners will finish last. A pitcher with no fastball will be called sneaky fast. Joe Morgan will be called the greatest player in baseball. Yawn. A lefthander will be called flaky. Bud Harrelson will be injured. All home teams will Jose on big give-away days. The manager of a team slowly falling out of a tight pennant race will say “We're playing them one at a time.” Someone wilt say pitching is 90 percent of the game. When the home team ties the score with a rally the announcer will say “It’s a whole new ballgame.” Fans will boo intentional walks. Richie Allen will disappear for a week. Three out of the four division winners will have won because their players gave 110 percent. Back to Syracuse A manager will explain to the press that his team can win if it gets timely hitting, tight defense and strong pitching. A third string player will be sent down to the Minors “for more work.” An owner will claim he’s one thousand percent behind a controversial player one week before trading him. A general manager who makes an obviously poor trade will explain “Trades are supposed to help both clubs.” Joe Rudi will be called underrated. A manager of a losing team will explain that there is a fine line between winning and losing. Someone will say “Hits are like bananas they come in bunches.” Fans will scream “Balk!” when a visiting pitcher turns to pick a player off second base and then decide not to throw. A manager will explain that he is only one player away from having a winning team. Someone will write an article like this one. — ' Page twelve . The Spectrum . Monday, 2 May 1977 few announcers make a lot of money. Along with being the program director for WYSL/WFHD, Harv Moore is the morning man, on weekdays, from 6 to 10. Fifteen years ago, he began his career at Boston University,i as a self acclaimed' “schlepper,” which he defined as a person who hung around a radio station and bugged the boss to let him on the air. He was eventually successful in this endeavor. A program director, according to “Humble Harv,” a name he bestows upon himself, is in charge of everything that goes over the air waves. This includes music, promotions and contests. He is also in charge of the announcers. When asked how he sees himself, he quickly replied “a latent heterosexual,”* and suggested his fellow staff members be asked for further indications as to his true character. Moore enjoys his work, and considers it a constant challenge. He discussed the stigma left on radio, as a medium, from the. payola scandals of tfTe 1 950’s, and feels this still damages the reputations of disc jockeys all ( over the country. Before residing in Buffalo. Moore worked for a station in employed Washington which many female broadcasters. There aren’t any female D.J.’s on WYSL/WFHD. Moore commented that women today seem to fit more smoothly into stations with a progressive format. for the individual, Moore explained the impetus for the change on the FM dial from WYSl. to WPHD. To begin with, simulcasting' prevents each station from reaching its full potential. According to Moore, people should have a' choice and one get two different programs; on AM and one on FM. Finally, after doing extensive research on what people like or dislike, station people officials found that - objected to repetition in songs, which is circumvented in the, WPHD FM format. Moore saw FM Repitition avoided on 1 FM “Humble Harv,” a graduate of as the coming thing, and felt that University, feels that the FM station needed itk own Boston students who afe interested in identity to grow. Moore said that professional thus far it is hard to tell what the becoming broadcasters should try to get a public’s reaction to WPHD-FM is, job with a commercial station, at although he is confident it will be some level, if they can. Also,,of a success, and that all it needs is a upmost importance, they should little fine tuning. Moore went on try to get as much education as to explain that many LP’s, like possible. Moore feels that the Boston, Fleetwood Mac, and the communications curriculums, and Eagles, have gfeat songs, other majors related to than the hit one, and the new other broadcasting, are excellent WPHD FM format includes these preparation for a career, and good songs.

The three-hour game was definitely not a pitchers’ duel, as each team scored run after run on a combination of hits and errors. A big factor in the game was the weather. The bright sun caused a few dropped fly balls and the wind helped a few long hits. The weather factor was obvious in the statistics the two teams committed a total of nine errors. The Bulls got a run in the first inning when Jack Kaminska reached second on a fly ball to right that was lost in the sun and was driven in by Phil Ganci’s single. After a scoreless second. Buffalo increased their lead with five runs in the third. Another error by Niagara’s rightfielder put Kaminska on first. When Mike Dixon came up, the Purple Eagles’ outfield again bubbled a fly and Dixon was safe. Mike Groh’s single scored Kaipinska, and John Pederson followed with another single* to score Dixon. Ed Durkin walked to load the bases. Then Joe Vizzi hit a single down the first base line, scoring Groh and Pederson. Vizzi on first and Durkin on third attempted a double steal that allowed Durkin to score, but Vizzi got thrown out trying to take third. — F R Y E I I I a I f Comedian SATURDAY, May 7th 8:00 pm CLARK HALL Tickets ’ v ‘ V- ■ Baseball Bulls win against Niagara D I ' - $1.25 students faculty staff and alumni $2.25 public available at Squire Ticket Office Betz tires Bulls' sophomore Mike Betz, coming off an ankle injury s started for the Bulls and was strong in the early innings.

Joe Fitzgerald hit another grounder that brought in another run before Casbolt retired the side. Both teams scored twice in the fifth. ■ For Niagara, Vincent Girardo lead off the fifth wfth a single. Kaminska’s second error of that day put Lou Thyroff on first and Art Carlisi walked. Tom Zaccardo then drove in two runs with a single before Casbolt got a double play and a groundout to end the inning. In Buffalo’s half of the fifth Ganci singled and Groh walked. Both scored on yet another error, this time by pitcher Mike Bleier. The Bulls scored three more runs in the game, including one on.a pinch-hit homerun by freshman Scott Raimondo. Niagara scored three times in the ninth. Both teams also put their pitching staffs to work. In addition to Casbolt, who picked up his fourth win, Don Grieibner pitched the final two innings for the Bulls. Niagara used all four of its pitchers (starter Bill Purdy, Bleier, Joe Keller and A1 Joslyn) and even sent center fielder Thryoff to the mound.

Once a, week, since December, 1974, the University moving and trucking crew Ips been collecting their contents rind taking them to Amherst Highway Department bins. The Highway Department then carts the caste to a recycler in Brockport. The Ellicott Complex remains unserviced. People Rachel Carson in College are concerned about the limited extent of University recycling. “The state of recycling on this is poor,” said Reed campus Kellner, “It’s no more than a token system so the people who do it can feel good. We’d need bins and bins to take care of all garbage University the this creates/’ Last year Rachel CArson College attempted to rectify the situation by instituting a recycling was used to cart the garbage is no longer available. Several individual floors devised their 6wn recycling projects as well, but these proved incapable of handling the huge amount of waste. Restrictions ridiculous Another alternative arose last summer when Highway Department expressed in carting away interest the Amherst recyclables from an outdoor bin near Ellicott. The office of Facilities Planning, which is in charge of “protecting the exterior and interior visual qualities of the Street Amherst and Main campuses,” according to Assistant Vice President John Neal, set several restrictions on the construction of an outdoor bin. Neal rioted that the office was actually in favor of a recycling program. “We have no problm with the recycling project. That’s a little like being against motherhood,* he said. But do have a they responsiblity to insure that the not “visually bin be will offensive.” Neal said jhat the bin would have to be hidden by shrubbery and generally unobtrusive. making it visible and having it be ugly.” According to Gold, the lack of visibility would reduce use, and prevent easy access to the bins by trucks. He cited the University bureaucracy as another factor in the problem. “Their way of doing business is not ours. We could have tried it and then if it didn’t work we could have taken it out. But they —were unwilling to experiment. All units in the University go through this when they deal with the administration.” over 200 pick-ups from He was certain however, that households. an effective plan could be Milo also picks up recyclables arranged with time. “We can have from “satellite” centers around on and it recycling this campus Buffalo.

A conference on the future of society and the role of social science in that future will be held on April 29 and 30 at several locations on the University’s Amherst campus. The conference is open to any and all people interested and concerned about future directions of social change. The conference, entitled “Facing The Future” is jointly sponsored by the Environmental Studies Center, and the Department of Sociology. It is intended to focus on the role of social scientists and social science research in helping to solve environmental, social, political, economic, and the psychological problems caused by the accelerated pace of change now taking place on this planet. Guest speakers will include: John Tanton, national president, Zero Population University Growth; Wendell Bell, professor of sociology at and author of The Sociology of the Future, Jonna Underwood, director of INFORM (an organization researching industrial impacts); Karl Deutsch, Stanfield Professor of International Peace, Harvard University and Kenneth •Boulding, professor of economics, University of Colorado.

Both the Buffalo Black Dance Workshop and Wallflower Order Dance Collective are women whose dancing fills in the blank pages of women’s and black people’s history. The Buffalo Black Dance Workshop began in 1968 as a bold experiment at SUNY at Buffalo. Since then it has developed into an acclaimed, professional dance company. Carole Kariamu Welsh, the creative spirit who founded the organization, is a celebrated choreographer. Her choreography of “Coretta,” “Journey North,” and “Freedom Suite” has been recognized as innovative and inspiring both in the U.S. and Europe. Currently she is a protege of internationally known dancer Pearl Reynolds. In a world dominated by male fhoreographers, the presence of Carole Kariamu Welsh is exceptional. Her inspiration is black. Her language is dance. And the communication is universal. Buffalo Black Dance workshop and the School of Movement are both part of the same dream. The School of Movement is committed to physical arts education in general and dance education in particular. Lectures and demonstrations of various dance techniques, a library, and a periodic film presentations are all part of a comprehensive educational program. The School provides an opportunity for all to learn about dance.

Smith and Joe Gallucci Three years ago scientists discovered the key to the creation of life by unlocking the secrets of the DNA (dyoxyribonucleic acid) molecule. This introduced the recombinant-DNA, a technique that recombines DNA segments (which determines the hereditary characteristics of all life) from two simple organisms. Biologists can now connect the “sticky” ends to the DNA segments, thus creating new life. Experiments with DNA manipulation are presently being conducted by governments, universities, and corporations all over the world. Most recombinant DNA experiments are done with E. coli bacteria, “a very dangerous bug” according to Dr. Norman Strauss, Chairman of the Biological Sciences Department here. The E. coli bacteria lives in the human intestines. Even though scientists have/developed a mutant of E. coli which cannot live outside of laboratory conditions, “This is not an adequate safeguard,” warns Strauss. He expalined the danger: “If this mutant E. coli is inhaled or somehow invested by a researcher, once inside that person’s intestines it could then transmit its DNA to the human E. coli. That person’s feces could then,contaminate sewage and this could infect the general population.” Unknown dangers In an article by Jeremy Rifkin, Dr. Liebe Cavalieri of the Sloan-Kettering Institute for Cancer warns that, “Only one accident is needed to endanger the future of mankind.” Cavalieri and his colleagues are worried that an Andromeda Strain-type virus for which there is no known immunization might be developed, spreading a deadly pestilence across the face of the earth. Strauss,acknowledges this possibility,,adding, “What’s so scary ahjmt this is that there is no way of predicting what will these experiments.” In working to obtain a cafl cohJajjiim; a specific recombinant-DNA, it is necessary to crea'te aJ vast number of cells with unknown genetic alterations. The probability of creating a dangerous genetic agent is real, and there is no way to test for danger. The scientist does not know what he has done until he at which point, we may analyzes the newly formed cell realize that indeed it’s not nice to fool with Mother Nature. — Strauss made the shocking statement tWt he has heard M.I.T. argue that recombinaitt-DNA research is leading scientists at this school and elsewhere casually remark, “So directly to genetic engineering of people.

He wants a moratorium appear within the next 20 to 50 years, and even sooner if placed on all recombinant-DNA research at least until such some nation actively pra#notes the project.

Med, □ is for ( I have enclosed $ NAME ADDRESS CITY STATE Large X Large T-Shirts �Dam project would rescue Mississippi River ecology by Michele Cohen Spectrum Staff Writer This spring, Congress will vote again on a long-unresolved issue; the expansion and jnodernization of Locks and Dam No. 26 at Alton (Illinois), a decision which could have long-range effects on Mississippi the River area’s anvironment, and on the people who live there. The dam project was first suggested in 1969 at an estimated cost of $400 million. By 1974, a coalition of the Western Railroad Association, Sierra Club and Izaak Walton League rose in opposition to the construction, blocking the first appropriation by Congress of $22 million. Plans for the new dam include of two 1200-foot locks to replace existing 360 and 600-foot locks. The depth of the locks would be increased . to accommodate barges having an eleven and a half foot draft, a depth that is 30 percent greater than the nine foot channel. Conservationists oppose the plan for two reasons. They are alarmed at an increase in lock depth, which they feel will necessitate increasing the total channel depth from nine to twelve feet. They also assert that stream causes added channelization construction ■ flooding. The Mississippi River has paid its price for construction of the locks and dam system in the 1930’s. The waters are no longer free flowing and dredging is required to remove three million tons of sand that are annually entrapped in the man-made lakes. This is dumped along the channel’s edges forming levee-like mounds up to thirty feet high on either side of the center current. Transportation systems The results of this pattern are apparent. The excess fill is causing the surrounding Water to block up and develop into marsh land. Some of the growth is so thick that even canoes can no longer pass through. The majestic water of the Mississippi is turning into the slurp of a barge canal. The railroad industry sides with the conservationists in opposing the proposed expansion. Competition has always existed between America’s shipping and railroad industries. Government foresight and planning did not prevent this discord by developing transportation complemented systems that another jockeying instead of and maneuvering for business. To understand the recent developments on the Mississippi, one must investigate all the twists and turns of her history. The white man’s interest in the Mississippi was an integral part of his exploration of America. The Spanish French and enthusiastically traveled the river’s course, discovering the sloping banks, and translucent waters and the panorama of gently rising hills that reached for miles from the river’s edges. By the early 1800’s canoes, rafts, keelboats and barges were a one frequent Mississippi* America’s sight operators complained that the height and supports of the bridges interfered with their navigation. complaints Their induced Congress to enact regulation of the railroad bridges. Sad transformation 'By 1887 only 10 percent of the annual tonnage moved to St. Louis was moved along the Mississippi. The decline in its use settled a sad stillness over towns that had once thrived on the bustling activity of barges and riverboats. Slowly the government began to take steps to rejuvenate the Mississippi as a main industrial along the which had become biggest commercial waterway. The first improvements the government made On the maintenance of the river began in 1824. $75,000 was allotted to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for the removal of embedded trees snaging river traffic. The project was known as “Uncle Sam’s tooth-pullers,” the first of many improvements that have absorbed millions of tax dollars since. development Railroad also reponded to industry demands. Land grant gifts were given to railroad companies from state and federal treasuries. By 1860, a railroad was running parallel to the Mississippi, carrying the excess coal, lumber, cotton and grain transported all the way from Minneapolis to New Orleans. The increased efficiency of the railroads contributed to a decline in river traffic. In 1887, bridges were being constructed across the Mississippi movement enabling east west of goods. Barge artery. The first constructed in constant water depths establish instead of the depths dependent on seasonal changes. Rapids, rocks and flooding also interfered with smooth transportation and were systematically dealt with. In 1879 the Mississippi River Commission was formed to find improving ways of river conditions. $3 million was spent on improvements in creating a channel four and one half feet deep to St. Louis from the Upper Mississippi.

Congress, in dealing with the problem of declining river traffic, placed governmental control on barge companies, which became the Inland Waterways Corp. and the Federal Barge Lines. Rates were established between the railroads and barge lines to offset the competitive price cutting the railroads had engaged in. The railroads resented government intervention in private enterprise. Long debate The last steps taken for river improvement were in the 1930’s. The system of 27 locks and dams proposed then was estimated at a cost of $124,000,000 with an of annual maintenance $1,750,000. These are the forty year old efforts being debated for change today. The issue of Lock and Dam No. 26 arose in 1969 when periodic malfunctioning bagan to occur. At that time Congress approved reconstruction. Work has not yet begun.

Page five �EditPrial Pure Thank you To the Editor bullshit Monday's issue of The Spectrum reported that SUNY Counsel Walter Relihan left it up to President Robert Ketter to decide whether the Group Legal Services (GLS) will be allowed to have 'its attorney counsel students in court, off-campus. This may be a good time to reconsider the misguided logic behind the Ketter Administration's original questioning of such a service. A provision in the SUNY Trustees' guidelines for use of the student activity fee allows that it be used for programs of "educational and cultural enrichment" which benefit "the campus community." The guidelines are vague, long-winded, and have been the source of debate within SUNY ever since theif instatement in 1970. Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti, as President Ketter's designee, seized on the words "educational and cultural" enrichment which benefit "the campus community" as proof that the guidelines were intended to prohibit anything which did not fall within the letter of those few words. This is pure bullshit. In fact, there is ample evidence that the spirit of the guidelines was intended to encourage just such a service. Additionally, the recent amendment to the guidelines specifically allows fees to be used for "student services to supplement or add to those provided by the University." It is likely that the amendment's sponsor, Student Association of the State University (SASU) President Frank Jackalone, had programs such as Group Legal Services in mind when he worded it. The Ketter administration has disregarded the clear mandate of the Trustees, Group Legal Services lawyer Richard Lippes, said last month. "If GLS isn't a student service, then nothing is." We believe that the probtem with the Group Legal Services program stems directly from an unwritten Ketter Administration policy of scrutinizing student activity fee expenditures more closely than any other SUNY campus administration, and of interpreting the guidelines in a stricter, more conservative fashion than such a vaguely phrased document allows. Whatever the motivation for this practice, its effect has been to obstruct and endanger legitimately conceived student enterprises, stifle creativity, and deny students the very necessary benefits of free legal representation in court. Lippes sees the issue as part of a constant battle for student rights and services. "If the Administration takes the position that student fees can't be used for something as important as this, who knows what will come next?" Group Legal Services, funded by Sub Board, the student corporation, is currently budgeted at $29,000. The program was originally, approved as a substitute for the old Legal Aid Clinic because it promised to offer free legal representation . in court. Now back in the hands of Robert Ketter, the Group Legal Services proposal remains in limbo, even as it carries on all the other services it was intended to provide. Ketter will hopefully give off-campus representation his approval before the semester is over. Otherwise, he is sure to face a losing legal battle over an issue which ought not to have been raised in the first place. _ The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. 79 Friday, 29 April 1977 Editor-in-Chief — The Art Library has been given sufficient funding to maintain regular hours for the balance of the semester.

Jeff Lessoff have to resort to name calling and character judgements of Mr. Levinson in order to get their point across.

Alan Kaufman Of bus schedules To the Editor. I am continually amazed ahd appalled by the stupidity of the people who design this University’s bus schedules. I have seen at the same time every day, five bus loads of people waiting and only two buses available, and I have seen five buses sitting at the bus stop and enough people fr one bus waiting. This summer’s bus schedule is completely inadequate. 1 can recall seeing a summer class schedule on April 1. Is it possible that in the time between April I and the day when the summer bus schedule was released, no one told Roger McGill, who designs the bus schedules, that there would be classes at Ridge Lea until 9:20 at night? And is it possible that Mr. McGill never bothered to look for himself and see that his little schedule had absolutely no relation to the real world outside his office in There is no ‘Lev Course which the bus riders exist? Apparently it is. Well, I hope he fixes the schedule. I might also point out that there will be summer classes at the Bubble that start at 7:45 a.m, I have registered for one of them and would like to catch a bus at Main Street that will get me there in time. But don’t relax yet, Mr. McGill, because I’m not through. The summer dorms are going to bp in Ellicott. Did you know that? That means there will be people living there seven days a week. People who will want buses seven days a week. People who will want buses day and night, not just until 9:20 p.m. when that last Ridge Lea class ends. I hope your schedule can be altered to fit reality. Even though reality is only what we make it. Who knows, maybe weekends and evenings don’t exist in the world of Roger McGill.

Although it is Stewart who is showcased, the performer is not on the stage alone. The band is an integral part of the Year of the Cat album and tour. The problem is that they are too prevalent. Being obnoxious, albeit talented, they steal the show tn a negative sort orf way. The quiet, tender voice of Stewart's is often overpowered by the band's orchestration on "Roads to Especially Moscow," we hear the keyboard man Pete Robbins conflict with his neat vocals. The' haunting quality of Stewart's historical lyrics of World War II becomes indistinguishable between the overbearing string synthesizer and •disturbing slide show.

' — ‘ , �Vaudevillerode music comes Gist There is really no concert like a Kinks concert and, once again, tomorrow night at 8 p.m. in the Century Theater, Buffalo will be treated to the antics of Ray Davis and Co. The Kinks' latest album. Sleepwalker, is much looser and more fun than their previous efforts, and these characteristics' should extend into the concert. Also on the bill is Ellicott Murphy, one of the more famous singer/songwriters to emerge from Long Island. Tickets, at $6 and $6.50, can be obtained at the Squire Ticket Office. This concert is being presented by QFM and by Eugene Zielinski Spectrum Music Staff Vaudeville rock. The term most likely conjures up images of Ray Davies balancing a beer can on his head, or else the concept is completely novel. The two wrods do not seem to go together. On one side we have Vaudeville, refined, sedate, but spontaneous and enjoyable in its own unassuming way. Rock, on the other hand, would never succeed if it were predicted on those characteristics essential to Vaudeville. Nevertheless, this unlikely combination does work, as was amply demonstrated last Friday night at the Fat Cat, when the up and coming band Milkie Cole took to the stage. Despite their chosen style, Molkie Cole was by no means another imitation of the Kinks. They emphasized the "rock" portion of Vaudeville rock, not putting as much effort into showmanship as the Kinks would have. This doesn't mean that they didn't have any antics they had quite a few but the antics were secondary to the music. The music itself was hard to describe. It was obvious that Molkie Cole was profoundly influenced by British music; traces of groups like the Beatles and lOcc could be heard throughout the set. Each song was primarily because none of them quite enjoyable and never boring lasted over five minutes, but also because the band seemed to know the limits of each song, and did not go beyond them. For example; there were no extended guitar solos, nor did anyone vocalist try to dominate a song. Molkie Cole does not have just one lead singer; most (or all) of the band's members would sing together, and at times they produced some simple but enjoyable harmonies, heightening their similarity to British bands. If there was one thing working to hold the set together, it was the drumming of Tim Cole. His performance was prominent and driving, but not overbearing, and served as an unconscious link between songs. Clad in a harlequin suit and sitting behind a wall of drums, Cole was the leader of the band. During breaks between songs, he would frequently address the crowd, warning them unsuccessfully (and not very sincerely) of the evils of marijuana or perhaps commenting on some members of the band.

(Cheers "Well, you might like to know that Phil here is so Polish that his mother wouldn't let him play in the sandbox because the cat kept burying him."

If you're soul searchin', look for it at this excellent triple bill. Notso-s tangent stand.lards The concert as a whole was great, but the best parts came at about the middle of the first act, where they took some old standards and reworked them in ways never dreamed possible. It all started quite innocently enought with Bob Steinmetz's saxophone seque from 'VB2" into, of all things, "In The Mood." Unlike so many other groups, they did not treat this as a jazz composition, but as a very rock oriented song. The result was extremely listenable, to say the least; it was impossible to stop keeping the beat with the band in one way or another. At the end of "In The Mood," they launched into the "Theme from Peter Gunn." For this number, Paul Pope donned a trenchcoat and a magnifiying glass with a giant eye on it, then stalked the stage while the rest of the band was playing. He later exchanged the glass for a banner which said, "Everybody likes marijuana," which seemed to express the sentiments of the audience exactly. Molkie Cole's other material was also good, and all of it was penned by members of the band. Standouts included the aforementioned 'VB2," which sounded like a cross between lOcc and Crack the Sky, and "The Last Song," mainly because of its harmonies and mid-sixties feel. Unfortunately, the names to most of the songs were not announced, and there were a few that did not come from their latest album. In looking over this review, I find that it does not do this concert justice. It is too subdued and not lively enough to communicate the atmosphere of the performance. Suffice it to say that Molkie Cole is a band with a future. Let's hope it isn't too long before they return to Buffalo. «.

That's the full 1 address of Philo Records, and it says a lot about them. It's a most atypical "record company": no suite of glass-walled offices in a skyscraper holding several dozen others, no executives in three-piece switchable suits. There's not much in North Ferrisburg, Vermont, except for Mt. Philo just off to the north, and a converted barn which houses Philo and its production facility. Earth Audio Techniques. As might be expected in pastoral, independent Vermont, Philo has two main objectives: to make music that doesn't depend on the whims of the Billboard charts, and to let the musicians decide how their records should sound. Both of these, by "record industry" standards, are little less than a call to revolution. There are other such companies: Flying Fish in Chicago, Rounder in Massachusetts (also a record distributor for small labels), Folk-Legacy in Sharon, Connecticut, several more. Each of them has a distinctivie character: Flying Fish is slick; Folk-Legacy is gentle and warm; Rounder is almost fiercely electric, ranging from reissues of old-time string bands to sessions with Dave Bromberg and Vassar Clements. I chose Philo partly capriciously, but also because it combines elements of all these qualities: a first-class production facility, and staff a wide range of repertoire that encompasses both traditional and contemporary musicians, and an enthusiasm that’ comes from musicians finally having the chance to do things their way. Utah Phillips, on his Philo album Good Though!, wrote: "(They've) given me complete control of what's on this record. I can say, 'Put this in' or Take this out.' They have given me advice, and sometimes I've accepted it and sometimes not. In any case, the result is exactly what I wanted, and not the kind of, hyped-up musical nightmare that happens 1/vhen the engineer and producer lift control from the people making the music." Does this really make any difference? Well, take Dave Van Ronk. In close to twenty years, he's recorded for, by my count, six other lables. Philo was the first to give him full artistic control. The result was Sunday Street, the finest record Van Ronk's ever made. muddy There's the none of over-orchestration that ruined several of Van Ronk's other efforts. It's just him, his voice' and his guitar, which is eminently sensible he made his prestigious name with the impassioned growl in which he sings and an instrumental technique as simple as the 12-bar blues or as complex as Scott Joplin and Jelly Roll Morton. As for his version of "Would You Like To Swing On a Star" ("Or would you rather be a fish . .?"), I can only echo Van Ronk's own comment: "I can . — . think of nothing whstsoever to say about this song . it is perfect." . Sunday Street should effectively spike the disturbing rumors that have gotten around to the effect that Van Ronk's burned himself out. If anything, he's more creative and vital an artist than ever; those twenty years haye taught hima lot, and here he's passed along a little of it. Tom Mitchell's self-named first album shows him to even better advantage than his stint with Paul Siebel at the UUAB Coffeehouse some weeks back. The arrangements, under the careful control of Tony Markellis, always underline the substance of the songs without obscuring them. And, under their elliptical imagery, songs like "Wasted Rose" have quite a lot to them: / wasted a rose wasted a melody line Tasted some crow I've been waist deep in lies And I've come to be one of the crazy sort And I see a tear in my true love's eye / Mitchell's nimbly avoided the treadmill of lost, loves, long roads, and self-pity that most songwriters get stuck on. His songs show maturity and a true voice that can't be mistaken for anyone else and this at the very start of his — career. There are whiffs of rock, country, and folk in the record, but its only style is its own. If you saw the Boys of the Lough at the Buffalo Folk Festival, I needn't waste my time praising them to you: their versions of the tunes and songs of Ireland, Scotland, and Shetland speak far more eloquently in their favor than I could. All I need say is that their newest-effort. The Piper's Broken Finger, lives up to their high standard. About the title: Scottish piper Finlay MacNeil broke a finger just before he was about to recrod with the Boys. The incident lent its name to Cathal McConnell's newly-composed flute reel, and Finlay, recovered, joined the Boys on two electrifying tracks that are the album's highlights. Unlike most groups playing traditional tunes, Celtic or otherwise, the Boys use almost exclusively melody instruments fiddle, flute, tinwhistle, regular and long-necked mandolin, tenor banjo, and concertine, with bodhran (hand-held drum) the only percussion. They blend together in a unique, richly colored sound; the singing is excellently handled by McConnell and Robin Morton. If you're a fan of the Boys, give yourself The Finger. (Ouch!) Without mammoth advertising budgets, labels like Philo depend on word of mouth vitally so,,in fact. Try to hear these records the Music Room in Norton Union has Mitchell's and and let someone know if you like Van Ronk's them. For now, feast your ears at this unseen table. —Bill Maraschiello — - — — Must the quality oftelevision keep dropping? by Al Rotundo Spectrum Arts Staff • Some years ago while still a wee lad I picked up a copy of TV.

A Prince of Portugal made it independent in 1822 but a Republic was proclaimed only in 1889, a year after its slaves were freed. The several Republics that followed desired above all to develop a strong and independent country according to its own beliefs. Brazil Cinema Now presents a collection of characters that live in fiction or in fact in Contemporary Brazil. The vitality of Brazilian filmmaking r evident in all of them and their directors play atf important role in the culture and political life of We country. The films came from different independent producers but they are all distributed by Embrafilme, a company in which the government owns 51% of the shares but exercises no “official direction" as to what is the contpR|t.pff)itee films to be made.

In 1975, The New York Society of Film Critics gave him special citation as a film ?> „ The 112 days are a consequence, a continuation of the struggle to win the Brazilian market for Brazilian films. It constitutes one of the few most decisive attitudes designed to open access to the market for our films. Since foreign pictures enter the market without restrictions, and since they enter in large numbers and are offered to the public at the same price as the film product made in Brazil, the solution found as time passed was to try to open breaches in the market and offer channels for Brazilian films to attain the marquees of the exhibitors. This ofcourse is only a palliative, because 112 days means only 30% of the days when movies are shown annually. But it is well to remember that before we arrived at this point, the exhibitors could indulge themselves in order to produce what we call “negative statistics,” the purpose being to prove that Brazilian films cannot compete in the market, and will only bring losses to their exhibitors. In the middle sixties a big Carioca exhibitor, one of the largest in Brazil, placed paid ads in the newspapers of each capital where his network was active “demonstrating” the impossibility of complying with the law requiring obligatory showing, “owing to the low technical and artistic quality of the Brazilian cinema.” In fact, as General Director of Embrafilme, I do not want to recall the differences of the past, or to perpetuate them. I look upon the law as a regulator of the market, with the mission of finally establishing a definitive basis for the existence of a Brazilian cinema capable of bringing together producers and exhibitors, side by side, in the struggle for the cinema, which is ours, to take charge of its own house. The fact is that foreign films enter Brazil under a system of dumping, with zero costs relative to ours. For them, according to data in Motion Pictures, our market represents about 5% of the world market. This in a situation where Brazilian films need the internal market to cover the whole of their investment. Operating by dumping, the foreign cinema naturally dictates the laws of the market and dominates the viewpoint of the exhibitors. After all, depending on foreign distributors as their main suppliers, the exhibitor has to give in to them. And the foreign cinema is in a position to be dear when it wants to be dear, and to be cheap when its interests call for it to be cheap. Their sources of production can enrich exhibitors and impoverish exhibitors. And what happens with the exhibitor happens also with the producer, who finds himself at the bottom of the heap. In the recent period, the Government has sought to take care of the interests of the national exhibitor.

Similarly, commissions from the moving picture industry have been received several times, particularly in the last two years, by federal authorities. I once had an opportunity to tell the Minister of Planning, Joao Paulo dos Reis Velloso, that 30% of the market was the minimum necessary if Brazilian cinema was ever to reach the top of the hill; for years it had been slipping and sliding on the slope. Then we could begin to get results maintaining, of course, the parallel work of complementing the arrangement which we won. Today, for example, I can speak of the existence of movie houses in Rio Grande do Sul that show national films only, because foreign films are too expensive when they get there. The obligatory 112 days represent the indispensable minimum if Brazilian cinema is to have a normal life. But this goal does not constitute a solution for all of its problems. We have much still to do, many plans to carry out, before we can achieve the desired stability with relation to foreign films. We do not wish the importation of foreign films to be restricted. We do not want foreign films to be sold at prices up to 10 times higher, as is the case with other products. We merely want to compete with foreign cinema as equal to equal. But to compete with foreign cinema as equal to equal is not only to provide access of national films to the movie houses, it is not only to offer credit to producers. It is much more: it is to assess the true possibilities of Brazilian films in the external market. Right now at Embrafilme, parallel to other projects, we have a work group charged with this. All of us who have at least 20 years experience in the industry have gone through the experience of having our films sold to as many as 40 countries, and of getting back no more than a pittance. Because out there they ran up against a machine impervious to Brazilian films, not because they were Brazilian but because, in most countries, we do not have an efficient sales apparatus. Brazil has an expanding internal market, one that should expand more and more, particularly with a better distribution of national income. In addition to this through a plan we are preparing to be presented to the Ministers of Education and it can be Planning, in short, to the Government — — — reinforced by a proper network of sales points for our product Jn the foreign market, giving preference to the countries of Latin American and Africa and to the Arab countries, without forgetting Europe and the United States. But there, only as a bridgehead, with films of greater cultural weight. The fact is that in developing countries we should be more aggressive, thereby complying with various appeals from some of our ambassadors and selling products of large-scale consumption, that is, entertainment films.In this way we could achieve a good income and could make Brazilian films a good source of exchange for the country: we could thus invert our balance of payments position in this sector. Thanks to this policy, we could begin to finance films considered exportable, produced with a view to the foreign market. As a result we would reduce our internal production costs, and improve our capacity to compete with outside films inside the country. We could, in short, provide a basis for -our own Government to stop looking upon our cinema in a paternalistic way. Brazilian cinema enjoys conditions which should be supported in a more stable fashion, as the United States treated this activity immediately after the Second World War when Europe ceased to be the great world film producer. According to the critic, film technician and researcher Alex Viany, the first Brazilian film announced as “entirely national” was the comedy Nho Anastaclo Chegou De Viagem, by Julio Ferrez, launched on 19 June 1908 at the Grande Cinematografo Rathe, which was on Avenida Central, today Rio Branco. Ever since then, the search for national themes hgs been a constant with Brazilian producers. Nevertheless, the results, in terms of public acceptance, have not lived up to the billing. In culture a certain radicalism is necessary, because if we do not adopt a firmer position in this connection, we will never achieve a culture of our own, but will be eternally conditioned by the culture we import. In 1974 we spent 14 million dollars to buy copies of some 850 films, only for showing in the regular theaters, that is, without taking into account those bought in lots, at a nominal price, for TV. One statistic from the Institute Nacional do Cinema, referring to 1974, reveals that TV the greatest exhibition network — — �in the world used 6057 films. Of these. 1704 were regular movies, 3218 had been produced specially for TV, and 1135 were animated cartoons. Of the movie films shown on TV, that is, out of the 1704,34 were Brazilian. In face of these data any person who knows something about communication or works in the cultural field will know that it is almost impossible to have a national consciousness, a national culture. We have succeeded in achieving a personality only because we are a people with personality. Out of some 850 films we imported in 1974 for the normal exhibition- network, the great majority did not make the least contribution to Brazilian culture, and the same is true of those shown on television. If we consider that the country is a large family, and consider that this family pays 14 million dollars to buy culture, we can see into what an absurd situation we have fallen. Well then, if we reallocate those 14 million dollars to the Brazilian film industry, half going to national films to improve their quality with a view to exportation and half to supplement the income of exhibitors who give preference to Brazilian films, as is done today for the producer, much could be done. Part of the incentive to exhibitors should necessarily be used to re-equip projection halls and build new ones, since we have deficient more than three thousand. I am sure that when the exhibitor can cease to be an agent of acculturation of the people and begins to receive the benefits of Government support to the Brazilian moving picture industry, he will take his place in the ranks along with Brazilian cinema, and conquest of the market will be assured. And when this time comes. Embrafilme should have its own exhibition circuit, so that it can bring to the public the more innovative films, the spearhead of Brazilian culture, the experimental the cinema capable of film, the vanguard film supplying the data of renovation necessary to its own art, which will then be fully active as a cultural defense. The exhibition circuit of Embrafilme should be the cultural option of the Government, of the Brazilian film technician, the means by which he will also have access to an ever-growing segment of the population. It is logical that this supplement be paid to the exhibitor so as to increase his income from Brazilian films so that it would be proportional to such income. Thus the exhibitor would have an incentive to declare his true receipts from domestic films, and would no longer resort to bordereaux instead. Furthermore, he would necessarily have to equip himself for Brazilian films. I say equip himself because one of the great needs of our cinema is good reproduction apparatus. With good sound apparatus ■->something practically non-existent in movie Brazilian films houses around and about Brazil with the people simply by easily communicate And statistics demonstrate Portuguese. speaking that a hall with good sound equipment enjoys a larger public for Brazilian films. As a matter of fact, it is a proof of the vitality of Brazilian cinema, of its ability to communicate with the people, the fact that it can be understood even when up to half the dialog is tost because of defective sound obligatory to include one short of a cultural, technical, scientific or informational character in every program where a foreign feature is shown. Besides this, and even anticipating the law, we have made contact with various governors with a view to decentralizing film production, that is, so that films may be made in regional centers, to which part of the production interest would also be transferred. We have on the way to consummation a convention with the Government of Minas Gerais according to which Embrafiime will assign to that state, as it will assign to Rio Grande do Sul and Bahia, a percentage of its appropriation, which when complemented by the state government is to be used in the production of films on regional themes, whether of history or folklore, based on the work of local writers. The films thus produced are to employ a certain number of regional technicians (all these states have active movie groups) and a percentage of technicians from Rio and Sao Paulo, so that film workers in the interior may quickly attain the levels demanded by Embrafiime as regards technical quality. Thus they themselves may later apply for financing by Embrafiime without needing the presence of professionals from Rio and Sao Paulo. So then the idea is to interchange Brazilian culture north and south, east and west, and to make it possible for all the people of Brazil to understand each other and recognize each other’s true face and peculiarities. Further anticipating approval of the law by the National Congress, Embrafiime is going to complement an appropriation which the Department of Cultural Affairs of the Ministry of Education and Culture assigned by auction to the production of shorts, which should provide, through INC, the possibility of doubling the number df these shorts from 14 to 28. — „ — Upon approval of the law by the Executive (it was sent to Congress on 19 August 1975), Embrafilme will assume the role previously attributed to the Institute Nacional do Cinema, and its capital will rise from Cr$6 million to Cr$ 80 million. Before my time Embrafilme only did financing. My predecessor, Walter Graciosa, began to make it a distributor and producer, and initiated the process of fusion with INC. Today Embrafilme is enjoying sound growth. As a distributor it invoiced in August of 1974, for example, Cr$ 1.421.438,74. This year, in the same month of . — — — equipment. It must be remembered that Brazilian cinema already has everything necessary. Producers have gone bankrupt, have started over, but have always sought to give the best of themselves. They make every type of film: the hermetic film, the open film, the difficult symbolic film. They are always searching for a path and suffering, most of the time in silence and without trying to throw responsibility on others. It is the minimum right to which a moving picture professional is entitled to fight for conditions to practice the activity he has chosen, just as others have in the activities they have chosen. Serving as a school for new film workers throughout the world, the short revealed in Brazil practically the whole range of the New Cinema from Joaquim Pedro de Andrade (CouroDeGata, 1960), to Paulo Cesar Saraceni and Mario Carneiro (Arraial Do Cabo, 1959). Beginning in 1966 with installation of the JB-Mesbla Festival, the short acquired still greater importance for Brazilian cinema. This Festival brought forward names such as Xavier de Oliveira (Andre, A Cara E A Coragem), Antonio Carlos Fontoura (O Capitao Bandeira Contra O Dr. Moura Brasil, 1971), Oswaldo Caldeira (Passe Livre, 1973), and the “devilish” Rogerio Sganzerla (O Bandido Da Luz Vermelha, 1968). The bill expanding the functions of Embrafilme and extinguishing 'NC provides for a great and well-merited assistance to the short by making it — — August, it invoiced Cr$ 7.331.321,48. This year, 1975, through the immediate Plan of Action which we forwarded to the Secretariat of Planning of the President's Office, through the we had extra Ministry of Education and Culture and market studies of resources for production the order of Cr$ 7.800.000. We have a promise from MEC of Cr$ 5 million for application in historical films, and we have Cr$ 1 million more in Minas Gerais, Cr$ 1 million more in Sao Paulo, and Cr$ 2 million in RioGrande do Sul. Therefore, this year we increased the available funds of the enterprise by Cr$ 16.800.000, which is equivalent to double the normal receipts of Embrafilme, which is about Cr$ 7 million derived from taxes charged on foreign films. This money has not yet actually been applied. We have begun to use it only this month, owing to a series of technical factors. It is nowthat the new harvest of productions of the enterprise is going to begin, in addition to what was being done when I took office this occurred more particularly because of the need to relieve the producer market, which for eight months had practically come to a stop. At that point we began, the production of a number of films, many of which are now about ready. If at the time we had tried to plan production the producers would not have resisted. This year, perceiving that we did not have, as we still do not have, money to finance the whole of Brazilian cinema, we have sought to increase the resources and plan their application. And at this moment we have a better perspective on the whole problem, and feel that Embrafifme can now attain its true scale and dimensions. By this we mean not only to concern ourselves with the various types of financing that the enterprise offers, with everything necessary to maintain moving picture activity, but to undertake planning in depth, aiming at an action capable of modifying movie consumption habits in the country in favor of our history, of our writers, of our folklore, of our roots, of what we are.

Woth Othon Bastos, Isabel Ribeiro, Vanda Lacerda, Nildo Parente, Mario Lago, Jofre Soares. "Graciliano Ramos’ novel is so rich that it surpasses its temporal limitations and reaches through to our days, in its unveiling of the process of a man who gears himself toward capitalistic consolidation and, at the same time, tries to know himself, exposes himself in the act of literary creation. He goes on inquiring about himself in his own text, taking a position of antithesis, and the audience itself becomes aware of the general and social process, by force of which the character cannot become aware of himself and therefore lives his (the character’s) tragedy. This is a situation that could happen either in 1927 or in 1977.” (Leon Hirszman) Graciliano Ramos is also the writer of “Vidas Secas” (Barren Lives), which was the origin of another masterpiece of Brazilian Cinema, directed by Nelson Pereira dos Santos.

NOEL NUTELS Directed by Marcos Altberg. 20 minutes. Color and Black and White. DOMINGO Directed by Geraldo Sarno. 15 minutes. Color. A Note on Short Films One of the most fascinating aspects of Brazilian short films is their versitility and the fact that they stem from a documentary tradition that is searching and revealing like Alberto Cavalcanti’s work in the British documentary film school, that is lyrical like the films of Murneau, that has the poetic objectivity of Flaherty, and that knows the -cinematic consciousness of Dziga Vertov. The short films made in Brazil‘are the work of filmmakers already established with more than one feature, such as Gustavo Dahl, Geraldo Farno and David Nevez or of newcomers like Marcos Altberg. Noel Nutels is an exceptional film about the life of an exceptional man who protected the Indians in Brazil without patronizing or compromising them. The film shows footage made by Nutels himself and it makes up one of the most poignant documentaries about the plight if the Brazilian Indians. Altberg was assistant director to Joachim Pedro do Povo on "Inconfidantes,” a product of RAI Italian Television. Domingo is by Geraldo Sarno, who is the John Grierson of Brazil, just as Thomas Farkas is the producer par excellence of a school of Brazilian documentary which could bear his name. The film is a poem about a feira in a square in the Brazilian northeast and it aims an analytical eye on the social process of the weekly gathering of the inhabitants of that region. In a way, every film is a documentary and this is especially true of Brazilian films whether they are fiction or reportage, features or shorts, because of their directions and because of the peculiarity of the market. Brazilian film has an “ethnoparallel” market for its production universities, film clubs, cable and commercial television. Documentaries accompany features on most programs in commercial theatres in Brazil, and the films presented in this series are just the smallest representation of such works from some of the most interesting of the new filmmakers in Brazil. — �May 4 9:00 P.M.

A rare and compelling work, it stretches out like the work of a syrribolist poet, for its power lies in the suggestivenesi* of the sequences. Zelito Vianna Born in Fortaleza (Ceara) in 1938. Founder of Mapa Filmes with Glauber Rocha, his two first films "A Doce Mulher Amada” (1972) and “Minha Namorada” (1973) were successful attempts to bring wide audiences to Cinema Novo films. “Alma,” based on Oswald de Andrade’s "Os Condenados” is his best film so far.

Back to Brazil in 1972, she was Dib Lutfi’s Camera Assistant for‘‘A Noite do Espantalho,” and her first feature film is “Nordeste: Cordel, Repente, Cancao,” made with the assistance of the Campanha de Defesa do Folclore. The film is an extraordinary tableau of the music of the Northeast Fairs, of the printing offices and the folks of the Brazilian backlands. May 17 Born in Rio de Joaquim Pedro De Andrade Janeiro in 1932. Graduating in Physics, he soon became interested in cinema, being one of the founders of Cinema Novo. In 1958 he was assistant director to Geraldo and Renato Santos Pereira’s “Rebeliao em Vila Rica.” In 1959 he made two cultural documentaries “O Mestre’de Apicucos” (on Gilberto Freyre) and "O Poeta do Castelo” (on Manuel Bandeira). In 1960 he directed his first fiction short film: “Couro de Gato,” winner of an international award and later included in “Cinco Vezes Favela” (1962). In “Garrincha, Alegria do Povo”(1963) he deals with the obsession of Brazilians for soccer, taking the story of one of the most fabulous athletes Brazil ever had. After this, feature documentary also he finally directed his first an award-winner fiction feature film, "The Priest and the Girl,” based on a poem by Carlos Drummond de uma Cidade Nova,” and for German TV a documentary about Cinema Novo: ‘‘Improvisiert and Zielbewusst.” He took more than two years preparing an adaptation of Mario de Andrade's “Macunaima,” one of the most successful of Cinema Novo works, winner in Mar del Plata as Best Film, 1970. A recent film was based on historical fact (an insurrection to overthrow the Inconfidentes,” Portuguese rule): “Os "Guerra Conjugal” is an produced by R.A.I. adaptation of short stories by Dalton Trevisan, one of the best of the modern writers from Brazil, and its subject is the grotesque of bawdy love relationships in Brazilian middle-class. Hugo Carvana One of the most outstanding actors of Brazil, he was seen in "Earth Entrances," “O Desafia,” "Antonio das Modes" and many other Brazilian films of international acclaim. After his first directorial effort, he worked on a new urban theme, tentatively titled "Cineac Trianon," which he will start shooting this spring. — 9:00 P.M. May 18 THE RISING STAR (A Estrela Sobe) 1974. Directed by Bruno Barreto: screenplay by Carlos Dieques, Leopoldo Serran, Isabel Camara and Barreto, based on a story by Marques Rebello; photography by Murillo Salles; edited by Raymundo Igino; music by Guto Graca Mello; produced by ICB. 95 minutes, color. With Betty Faria, Odete Lara, Paulo Cesar Pereio, Carlos Eduardo Dolabella. The story of a poor girl who becomes a famous TV star is too close to “A Star Is Born" not to avoid comparisons, but what is stressed in this version is the guts-to-make-it, in spite of the odds being against it. Bruno Barreto is a wonder-man in Brazil: this second film by a 23 year-old filmmaker was the greatest box-office hit in Brazil in 1974, and his new film “Dona Flor e Seus Dois Maridos” broke all the records of foreign pictures like ‘'Jaws” and “The Towering Inferno.” Bruno Barreto has been making films since he was a child. Son of Luis Carlos Barreto, Brazil’s foremost film producer, he grew up under the influence of the be?t film-makers of Brazil and abroad. His first film\ “Tati, a Garota," was a hit, and he established himself as the most reliable box-office certaintly in Brazil this decade. �The New Cinema / The first signs of renovation of the Brazilian cinema began to be felt at the beginning of the fifties. A group of young enthusiasts opened an offensive on two fronts; against the loss of national character in the more. ambitious productions, such as those of Vera Cruz; and against the chanchadas. The work of these youths was welcomed by respected critics such as, among others, Alex Viany; P. F. Gastal from Rio Grande do Sul; Paulo Emilio Sales Gomes and Francisco de Almeida Sales from Sao Paulo; and Valter da Silveira from Bahia. A plan of action began to be laid out in the two congresses of the Brazilian motion picture industry held in Rio (1952) and Sao Paulo (1953). The line which began with Favela De Meus Amores, passing through Joao Nlnguem, Moleque Tiao and Tudo Azul (Everything Rosy), mixing with influences of the English documentary and Italian neo-realism, came to full flower in the first film of the critic Alex Viany, Agulha No Palheiro (Needle in a Haystack), in which Nelson Pereira dos Santos served as assistant director. The same inspiration motivated the first two films of Nelson Pereira dos Santos, Rio 40 Graus (1955) and Rio Zona Norte (Rio, North Zaone) (1957), as well as his third production, O Grande Momenta (The Great Moment) (1958), directed by Roberto Santos. Rio, Quarenta Graus was in fact the starting point of the movement. The film grew out of an idea of Arnaldo Farias: to focus on the most varied aspects of the city, the unifying element being some young sellers of peanuts. With a devoted team that included the photographer Helio Silva and the composer Ze Keti, Nelson Pereira dos Santos formed a new kind of cooperative, devising a new type of production as to both method and purpose. Between*) 958 and 1962 there came a series of experimemirln shorts and 16mm. Individually or in groups, new creative figures participated, Joaquim Pedro de Andrade, among them Maurice Capovilla, Mario Carneiro, Eduardo Coutipho Carlos Diegues, Marcos Farias, Alvaro Gdmiafahs, Leon Hirszman, David Neves, Linduarte Noronha, Luiz Sergio Person, Glauber Rocha, Luiz Paulino dos Santos and Paulo Cesar SaWfpn.bhc Shorts such as Arraial Do Cabo, 1959, by Mario Carneiro an£ Paulo CesarSaraceni, began to give forrn to tHe'movement, as did Amanda, (1960), by Linduarte Noronha. And fictional shorts, such as Couro De Gato (CatSkin), (1960), by Joaquim Pedro de Andrade, and O Menino Das Calcas Brancas (The Boy with the White Pants), (1962), by Sergio Ricardo, reinforced the tendency. This last saw the first work of Dib Lutfi, brother of the director and later one of the leaders of the movement. Arraial Do Cabo and Couro De Gato won various international prizes and served to strengthen the movement, which at the beginning of the sixties was already beginning to be known as the New Cinema. Films such as Bahia De Todos Os Santos (AllSaints Bay) by Trigueirinho Neto: Barravento, by Glauber Rocha (1961), Porto Das Caixas (Box Port), by Paulo CesarSaraceni (1962); AssaltoAo Trem Pagador, by Roberto Farias (1962), and Os Cafajestes, by Ruy Guerra (1962), contributed to swell the national and international prestige of the movement. In 1962 Anselmo Duarte, with O Pagador De Promessas (The Given Word), won the Gold Palm at Cannes. Between the Cannes Festival of 1962, with the prize to Anselmo Duarte, and that of 1969, when Glauber Rocha won the prize for best directing with O Dragao Da Maldade Contra O Santo Guerreiro (Antonio das Mortes), the slogan "a camera in your hand and an idea in your head” attributed to Glauber Rocha, became a kind of motto for the movement. The expression meant an inexpensive cinema, without studios: social cinema, signed by the author. Nelson Pereira dos Santos, attempting to summarize, said: “The main result of the New Cinema was the cultural affirmation of Brazilian pictures.” The movement served to create its own pubtrc, a'publie'Mwhhad not believed in the national cinema before. Further, it brought Brazilian moving pictures up to date in terms of language and technique. Internationally, at a certain point, it came to be looked on as one of the most revoluntionary creative centers of modern films. Another film by Nelson Pereira dos Santos, Vidas Secas (Barren Lives) (1963), a strict rendering of the novel by Graciliano RamoS, is seen as bringing the New Cinema to maturity. Luis Carlos Barreto photographed it in the state of Alagoas, and succeeded, according to Alex Viany, "in recording the hard sunlight of the Backlands, and in creating an atmosphere of desolation.” A second phase of the movement might be seen in Deus E O Diabo Na Terra Do Sol (Black God, White Devil), by Glauber Rocha, inspired by the handbill literature at country fairs in the Northeast, and by the music of Villa-Lobos. This film, from 1964, was to be followed by O Dragao Da Maldade Contra O Santo Guerreiro (Antonio das Mortes) (1969). A third phase might be said to be present in Macunaima, by Joaquim Pedro de Andrade, According to many critics, this third phase began with Terra Em Transe, by Glauber Rocha (1967), and was carried forward by O Dragao Da Maldade Contra O Santo Guerreiro. It turned to allegory as a means of expression, with doses of sarcasm and a conscious and unconscious phastasy, seeking means at times to overcome difficulties imposed on the themes. After a certain point, anthropophagy is present, in films such as Fome De Amor (Hunger for Love), by Nelson Pereira dos Santos (1968), and Brasil, Ano 2000 (Brazil, Year 2000), by Walter Lima Jr. (1969), Os Herdeiros (The Heirs), by Carlos Diegues (1969), and O Profeta Da Fome (The Prophet of Hunger), by Maurice Capovilla (1969). The Takeoff With 25 years in the profession he began as an assistant in the chanchadas of Atlantida and one of the most substantial records of achievement in Brazilian films, O AssaltoAoTremPagador, Selva Tragica (Tragic Jungle) and O DiamanteCor-DeRosa (The Pink Diamond), Roberto Farias, a “Fluminense" of 44, came to be General Director of Embrafilme with a greater responsibility than his predecessors: that of not throwing away the first opportunity given to a man “of the profession” to do something enduring for the Brazilian cinema. From the other side of the table, Roberto Farias crosses the threshold of 1976 with the possibility in hand of conducting our film industry to economies of scale, thanks to an expansion of the attributions of Embrafilme, to elevation of its capital from Cr$ 6 million to Cr$ 80 million and to a series of measures taken by the Federal Government (Proposed Law n. 911 dated 19 August 1975) with a view of guaranteeing, by economic development of Brazilian cinema, the very affirmation of the national consciousness. The 112 Days At the beginning of the fifties, Brazilian fulllength film production came to about 20 a year. During the sixties it rose to about 30, and reached 80-100 films at the beginning of the seventies. In 1961 the reserved market (obligatory exhibition of Brazilian films as against days devoted to foreign films) was 42 days a year. From 1964 to 1969 it was 56 days. From then on, Brazilian producers and directors sought to increase the reservatirn to 112 days. This was accomplished only recently. - - �BRAZILIAN CINEMA Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow by Fabiano Canosa — (Translated by Kenneth Rasmussen) Cinema was born under the sign of Capricorn (December 28, 1895). Less than a year later, it reached Brazil and, according to chroniclers of the period, was a great success and immediately became part of the daily activities of a public hungry for novelty. It brought together music, ballet, sex, action, performance as well as an “intimate scene.” It called itself Cinematographo and the scena was silent. The first Brazilian film criticism spoke of a "Cock fight,” leading us to wonder if at that early stage some dauntless filmmaker hadn’t already filmed the first images of Brazil. As in the U.S., Brazilian cinema required the participation of newly-arrived groups from Europe, a new art, still in the formative stage, needing the cooperation of immigrants, of the unemployed, of those in search of a new life or a new profession. In those days, theatrical impresarios joined forces with rash adventurers. The first proprietor of a show salon, Pascoal Segreto, a photographer of great repute and one of the first to immortalize the people and landscapes of Rio de Janeiro, found it unavoidable to join forces with a wellknow evader of the law in order to be able to install on the famed Rua do Quvidor of the poets Bilac and Coelho Neto and of the shops displaying the latest Paris fashions, the Cinematografo Super Lumiere, which received its first important personality in 1898 when President Prudente de Morais, unable to resist the impact of novelty, was in attendance, opening the way for the proliferation of show places in Rio de Janeiro. The tribute paid the Lumiere demonstrated the irresistible necessity of documenting on film the everyday life of the country. Film writers began to come forth, giving witness to the beauties of Rio, to events and personalities of Brazil. The documentary school was an extensibn of the fascination exerted by photography, and Rio de Janeiro became the cradle of cinematographic production in Brazil. During this period, when the world’s heart palpitated in the expectation of the turn of the century and the fulfillment of the predictions of Jules Verne, when industrialization carried the promises of the epic feats of rapid transportation, of radio, of the telegraph, and even television, the atmosphere of anticipation centered around the marvels of electrical energy and the fantastic power of the cinema, which permitted us to view Paris and the Champs-Elysees without having to spend a fortnight on a boat. The documentario transformed the mind of a generation dazzled by the power of this new kind of spectacle— circusin like its origin, theatrical in presentation—turning it into another alternative for gatherings, love affairs, and discussions. But Melies had already reached our shores with his fanciful and whimsical sets and his appeal to fiction. The juxtapositioning of the documentary with the lunar fantasies and the pantomine of the first adtors to be internationally recognized, paved the way for the creation of the first cinematographic genre in Brazil; the police film. OS ESTRANGULADORES (The Stranglers), O CRIME DA MALA (The Crime of the Trunk), in their various Rio and Sao Paulo versions, brought the weekly serial to graphic representation via the movies. At that moment, Brazilian cinema acquired its polemical shape, and at the same time won all Brazilian audiences. Speaking to regional topics, which aroused public opinion and created movie houses newspaper headlines, disseminated crude -versions of events already part of public awareness throughtout the country. The second phase was a consequence of the belle-epoque, the period of Franz Lehar and Sarah" Bernhardt. Cinema decided to intellectualize itself, to musicalize itself. And singing films came forth. Theatrical impresarios brought lyric singers into movie salons and recreated The Merry Widow and Carlos GomesO GUARANI. As would occur years later with a classic American musical, Singing in the rain, the actors would remain behind the screen, just dubbing the actors interpreting the roles of Prince Danilo, or Ceci, or Peri (KR: the latter two are characters from O Guarani). FOUNDERS OF CINEDIA — includes Humberto Mauro, the greatest filmmaker of the 20's and 30's, and Adhemar Gonzaga, the greatest producer. The invention allied itself with political satire, and the son of the celebrated abolitionist Jose do Patroclnio wrote a film script that spoke of President Nilo Pecanha with the same irreverence of the great political cartoons of the time. PAZ E AMOR (Peace and Love), and CHANTECLER, which followed, continued the line of satire, mixing couplets with the 1 comedy of manners. This time the object was the politician Pinheiro Machado. Both had a grand finale filmed on the battle ship Minas Gerais. With the popularization of movies, restrictions began to be imposed. A drama about the naval man Joao Candido, who headed a revolt in 1910, was immediately filmed, projected on the screen, and censored. With these restrictions came the beginnings of fear and timidity. It appeared 16 be easier and safer to accept what came from the outside, which was not so controversial because it kept its distance in latitude and in polemics. The imported product of the large studio corporations began to appear. The first of them lumped together European and American films, and Brazilian production felt a frigid wave of air. However the Great War slowed down international production and a new period of revitalization came forth out of Sao Paulo. Another immigrant, Vittorio Capellaro, who had worked with Duse and Di Lorenzo, began to film masterpieces of Brazilian literature, using as his model the great successes of cinema dell'arte which enjoyed great prestige in Brazil. INOCENCIA by Taunay, an unconditional bestseller, was closely followed by the films of a new director, who would eventually prove to be one of the splendors of Brazilian cinema—Luiz de Barros. Lulu (the affectionate nickname of this creator of more than 60 movies) filmed the works of Jose de Alencar, and achieved the feat of contracting Brazil’s most famous actor, Leopoldo Froes, for his best known film, PERDIDA. Capellaro wasted no time and filmed O GUARANI, also by Jose de Alencar, the most Indianist of all South American novels, in the tradition of Nathaniel Hawthrone. Also due to the Great War, a new trend, this time of epic proportions, developed—the film of national unity. Already in 1914, PATRIA E BANDEIRA (Fatherland and Flag)-was dealing with German espionage. PATRIA BRASILEIRA, from the same period, enjoyed the cooperation of one of Brazil’s great poets, Olavo Bilac. At the same time there appeared on the scene in Sao Paulo the first expert in propaganda films, Gilberto Rossi. Rossi produced films whose message was to sell the name of a politician or a national campaign. Rossi made himself a lot of money, but was unsatisfied with the results of his work. In 19t9 he created the first cinema school in Brazil, and shortly thereafter produced the first masterpiece of Brazilian cinema, EXEMPLO REGENERADOR, by the filmmaker Jose Medina. The best known examples of the new art began to exert new influences, and the pattern of the media manipulators began to make its presence known—the star system was born, and with it, O CANGACEIRO directed by Lima Barreto, best action film, Cannes (1953), Brazil's major hit of the 50's. — d/nearte, specialized publications, among whi the most complete journal of film existing in B razil to this day, the most organic in the sense of giving a unique prominence to the best of what was being done throughout the world,' including 'HugjioiTo 1 Brazil. The publication was the a dream of Paul Benedetti and two 'dlHerna fanatics—Adhemar Gonzaga and Pedro Lima. The decade of the twenties saw the proliferation of film centers in Brazil; Rio and Sao Paulo sharing prominence with, among others, Cataguazes and Recife. Films were being made from the Amazon to the Pampas. Distribution was in its infancy, filmg never reached the large urban centers, and the power of the monopolies in the distribution and showing of films was making itself known. All of which did not impede the creation of memorable films such as AITARE DA PRAIA, filmed by Aurora Filme of Recife, or the appearance of Brazil’s greatest director, Humberto Mauro, a native of the interior of Minas Gerais, whose films the journal Cinearte warmly applauded, and which reached the screens of Rio and Sao Paulo, such being the impact of their artistic excellence. A variety of genres abounded, precipitating the most daring of films, such as VICIO E BELEZA, whose screening was restricted to gentlemen only, not to mention films on religious, social, and urban themes, police films, documentaries, and even westerns, such as E. C. Kerrigan’s (a very Brazilian American) SOFRER PARA GOZAR (Suffer to Enjoy). Kerrigan was a Brazilianized American who lived under a pseudonym. The end of the decade brought spoken movies, and with it a Byzantine argument about the necessity or non-necessity of sound in cinematic production. Polemics didn't stop Lulu de Barros from making his first talkie: ACABARAM-SE OS OTARIOS, the story of a man who bought a trolley. The spoken movie was the great culprit of -tfwtransformation, as the poet, Noel Rosa used to say . . . With spoken movies, it seemed that foreign films would enter a crisis stage that would restrict them to the country of their origin. Much was said about the impossibility of spectators adapting to the system of subtitles. It was a moment of euphoria for national producers. �With the patronage of the Cinearte group, the creation of Cinedia, the,support of a new medium (radio), and the inspiration of American musicals of the Broadway Melody type, a series of musical reviews began to overrun Brazil. The beginning of the new decade saw the production of 30 Brazilian films, and among those of greatest artistic success, were works of Humberto Mauro who had emigrated from Cataguazes to Rio de Janeiro. LABIOS EM BEIJOS (1930) was followed by GANGA BRUTA, perhaps the greatest of Mauro’s films. GANGA BRUTA demonstrated the Brazilian film could communicate with audiences in a different way than the proponents of the earlier musical comedies had thought possible. The high artistic standard, the influence of the great films, not their imitation, crystalized through the sensitivity of a great author, allowed for the appearance of a genuinely Brazilian cinema which erased the gratuitousness from the comedy. Nevertheless, it was still the comedy which became, up until the fifties, the Brazilian genre par excellence. Despite its detractors, the chanchada which had its roots in the theatre (KR: Brazilian in caipira revue and backwoodsman) vaudeville, was able to provide Brazilian cinema with an audience that remained faithful until the advent of television. It was in that transition period still, when radio began to relate news about the Capital in Rio, uniting Brazilians and popularizing personalities from the artistic, social,’and political world, that there appeared a strange film, related to the most avant-garde schools of cinema of the time, Mario Peixoto’s LIMITE. LIMITE 'turned out to be the “Semana de Arte Moderna” (1922) of Brazilian cinema, ten years later. An art film, free from compromise, it gave rise to a polemic that has not yet subsided. Few saw it, but legend has it that Eisenstein characterized it as a unique contribution to the development of cinema d’auteur. The truth is that, independently of LIMITE’s having opened and closed the cycle of films in Brazil affiliated with the avant-garde of Bunuel and L’Herbier, it belongs to a long tradition of auteurist cinema that started with Jose Medina, passed through Peixoto, continued with Azevedo and Mauro, and arrived at the present with Trigueirinho Neto, Nelsop fipneira dos Santos, Glauber Rocha and Julio Bressane. The Vargas regime, which controlled Brazil from 1930 until the end of the Second War, was populist and status-quo oriented. Even with the slowdown |rfhP'Brazilian films, the government didn't sidestep 4he responsibility of giving it a modicum of protection. The first “degree of obligatoriness,” through which a certain ratio of days was guaranteed for the exhibition of Brazilian made movies, was issued and the first producers’ and technicians’ associations were formed. At the same time there was a surge of films produced by the government, and shortlength films became the guarantee of surviyal for the film technician in Brazil—and then, in alliance with national exhibitors, the power of international capital promoted and decreed the “death” of Brazilian cinema. At the same time, it seemed impossible to create a truly Brazilian cinema when foreign films ha0 succeeded in overcoming problems of accessibility with an international public via the ' • Burle promised the necessary union of artistic quality and popular appeal, which Brazilian film enthusiasts awaited anxiously. MOLEQUE TIAO, which definitively launched the career of Grande Otelo, was the first movie to propose an urban cinema and to discuss the social problems of the majority, which was still being viewed as a minority. While this . was taking place, spectators continued to give preference to comedies. New names came forth, all of them extremely popular: Oscarito, Grande Otelo himself, Jayme Costa, Mesquitinha. Atlantida, which had met resistance on the part of exhibitors, was acquired by one of them, and production orientation changed radically. The end of the '40’s solidified the prestige of the chanchada, and twice each year, Atlantida actors could be seen in carnival musical comedies which served as a plug for radio hits or in pastiches of American movies like Samson and Delilah and High Noon. The years following the War gave birth in the minds of many to the idea of a more “high class” cinema. What followed was the elitism that had its highest degree of expression in the Vera Cruz company. Alberto Cavalcanti, who had done more for French and English cinema than for his own country, was rushed to Sao Paulo. A studio was built in Sao Bernardo do Campo, and films as good as those made in Hollywood were promised. Cavalcanti came, saw, and lost interest in the project before Vera Cruz’s first film was launched. He founded his own company, made two good movies O CANTO DO MAR and SIMAO, O CAOLHO and returned to Europe, taking with him the ire of his enemies at Vera Cruz, both those who hoped for a cinema less compromised in aesthetic standards and by foreign models, and those who had no faith in Brazilian cinema. The major tactical error of Vera Cruz was having turned over distribution of its films to a foreign company. The result was catastrophic, and the consolidation of national production via Difilm and the major successes of new Brazilian cinema could not be felt. Meanwhile, in the midst of all these blunders, Vera Cruz produced the first film to have worldwide repercussions and to win a prize; Lima Barreto’s O CANGACEIRO. Vera Cruz also . generated the greatest period of film activity in Sao Paulo, giving rise to names like Walter Hugo Khouri, Roberto Santos, Garcia, Mazzaropi, instead of the Aestheticists who had recently arrived in Brazil without any experience with a Brazilian public. It was during this period that independent production in Rio discovered its own outlet. Alex Viany’s AGULHA NO PALHEIR6, with directorial assistance from Nelson Pereira dos Santos, who later was to become the founder of the New Brazilian Cinema AGULHA NO PALHEIRO was intended to be an urban comedy without the hullabaloo of broadcast flicks which were the basic prop of the chanchada. The film escaped nobody's attention, and it succeeded in infusing Brazilian cinema with the hope of being able to reach authentic standards of quality. Television absorbed the drawing power of radio, and the chanchada began to disappear from Brazilian cinema. The first serious films produced were totally devoid of authenticity, and suffocatingly artificial. At thife point Nelson Pereira dos Santos completed his first movies, RIO QUARENTA GRAUS, under the influence of the neo-realist model of Luciano Emmer and Steno Monicelli. RIO QUARENTA GRAUS enraptured whose who were able to see it during its brief appearance. Yet it was seen by a good number of people, among them students, movie buffs, and intellectuals. The masses had no part in the success of Nelson Pereira dos Santos’ first film, but it was there, portrayed on the screen, and the pathway to a dialogue had been established for the first time outside of the hackneyed standards of the chanchada. From that point on it was necessary to more directly and cohesively attack the weaknesses in the everyday problems of Brazilian cinema, and at last the direction had been established. Brazilian movies began to reappear, and frohn then on the media would write extensively about them—the first international successes, the Gold Palm for Anselmo Duarte’s O PAGADOR DE PROMESSAS, Glauber Rocha’s first film, Carlos GANGA Diegues’ BARRAVENTO, ZUMBA, Leon Hirszman’s PEDREIRA Db SAO DIOGO, Paulo Cesar Sarraceni’s PORTO DAS CAIXAS, and so many others. A new aesthetic was being created, an aesthetic of our own, that had to do with the “in progress” stage of our new plans. It was a strategic moment in which it was necessary to reaffirm, reevaluate, and restructure, in order to assure the survival of our ideas and actions, and the permanent participation in national decisions in the fields of art, culture, and politics. In the last ten years what ground has been won for Brazilian cinema is the firm establishment of its prestige within its on market. The world wide artistic success of Brazilian directors would not be so significant were it not for the unanimous acceptance Of the Brazlian people. The struggle goes on. Production costs have increased. New techniques demand a kind of attention that far exceeds that given to the incipient productions of yesteryear. As in all developing countries, cinema in Brazil occupies a fundamental place in the enlightenment of its communities, awakening discussion and creating new models. Television will support it to the extent that the mosaic of our living rooms extendantself to accept and to come to intimate terms wifh the new. The end goal is to stimulate the Brazilian spectator, constantly thirsting for more information, to awaken in him an interest in Brazilian cinema as a renovating element of the language of cinematics, continuing the tradition established by the pioneers and solidifying the prestige already won. The major victory of Brazilian cinema is that today it reflects all the tendencies manifested in the course of its history. All of these tendencies seek a dialogue with the public which is at the same time polemical, active, sensual, dynamic, and sophisticated. use of printed subtitles. The closing years of the ’30’s saw the continuation of a battle that still echoes in the reaction of exhibitors against the penetrations of the Brazilian cinema market. The Second Great War and the Good Neighbor Policy had a lot to do with it: the war efforts set limitations on the already shaky situation of Brazilian production, and for years the only activity that seemed acceptable to national producers was the compulsory showing of Brazilian newsreels and movies produced by the recently-created National Institute of Educational Films, the creation of Roquette Pinto under the tutelage of Humbertq Mauro who, having departed for Cinedia, collaborated in the production of some 200 short-length features. Nevertheless, an occasional success kept the flame burning: BONEQUINHA DE SEDA by Oduvaldo Vianna, FAVELA DE MEUS AMORES, and ARGILA, both by Mauro, the latter 1 prodlW&'d and starred in by Carmen Santos, a most extraordinary personality, a staunch defender of Brazilian cinema, and one of its most active names. In 1941 three movie buffs decided to found a new company.

These three students, the General Manager, Musical Director and Chief Engineer respectively, have improved the signal vastly, broadcasting on the 640 wavelength. Many ambitious new disc jockeys became a regular part of the station's programming. Record distributors and radio stations donated many records to start a new library where previously there was none. Nev\> equipment was installed in the station to give a more professional touch to the production. The "renaissance" of WIRC has amazed this writer quite a bit, and, being one of the "jocks" of the station as well, I have witnessed this transformation. In reactiqn to this occasion, I recently spoke with Mike and Harold in my own Clement Hall Headquarters to discuss the station's remarkable progress arid potentially outrageous future. station The station presently is badly in need of a new location due to the multiplying expansions as the months go on. The studio has several milk containers that constitute shelves for the record library, which needs more room each week. There is also little organization of spare parts, and tools are hard to keep track of. In addition, to the need of a production room, all of these components comprise only two rooms, a sore deficit in space. Phone line needed Two love stories in the French style are this weekend's UUAB films in the Squire/Norton Conference Theatre: French-Canadian Claude Jutra's Kamouraska tonight and Claude Chabrol's acclaimed Prodigal Sun Une Partie De Plaisir (A Piece of Pleasure) tomorrow and Sunday. The dopey midnight films are The Cocaine Fiends and Jimi Plays Berkeley, with Jimi Hendrix, of course. Call 831-5117 for times. As far as the method of broadcasting to Amherst is concerned, the transmitter at the Governors Complex is already intact and functioning. What is needed now is a phone line laid in to transmit the signal from Main Street. A few different attempts are being toyed around with to accomplish their connection with an Ellicott audience, including weak transmissions through the air. A few comments were made on WIRC's outlook for the '77-'78 school year. If WBUF loses its unique “progressive" format and status as well, WIRC may be the only such rock station accessible to this school. Pending the approval of their budget, there will be an acquisition of more records, new equipment, and the reality of Governors’ and Ellicott's reception. It appears that the crucial money is needed to spark the station to even further accomplishments. WIRC will also become the "voice of campuS events," using its programming facilities. "WBFO has alienated itself from the school and the student body. WIRC will fill the gap that WBFO has left," claims Kozlowski, the Musical Director. WIRC is fast becoming new turf for student-run operations, this ti me in the medium of the radio. If the dice fall the right way for them, there will soon be outstanding new escapades over the radio at this university that will give WIRC a place at the top. Friday, 29 April 1977 . The Spectrum .

The Spectrum . Friday, 29 April 1977 Prodigal Sun , �time to- forget RECORDS Brothers) The New Beachboys' album is a change and it should reaffirm the group's righteous place in rock apd roll history. Think about it: what is the retrospective identity of the Beachboys? More often than not this famous California incarnation reflects tales of the endless wave, A Little Deuce Coupe, maybe some sidewalk surfin', of course fine suntanned California Girls and probably even a little bit of that old, beach blanket bingo. No doubt about it, it is very hard to obliterate the memory of their ambient wave of AM classics. One can attribute the quality of this scheme to the concentrated and oddball genius of always moody and withdrawn Brian Wilson. 1 Although he is a ' non-rock and roller if there ever was one, his importance as a sociological pundit cannot be denied. ,lt is his sole effort that made the Beachboys such viable American contenders when that whole pop genre began to stretch out in the early and middle sixties. Look at the statistics which overwhelmingly prove the point. Better yet place the ageless and hedonistic "Good Vibrations" anthem in a playlist of any of this year's top ten list (your choice) and marvel as it stands out as vibrantly today as it did when it first rose to the top of the pops. But let us discontinue any further advance down this avenue. nostalgic Enough superlatives have been awarded the Beachboys to go around all those harmony groups that never achieved such fame and glory. It is — ' > — — , The Beachboys Love You (Warner the past, to misusing its importance and placing it out of context "Surfer Girl" belongs in that same age of antiquity which upholds the sexiness of Annette Funicello. The Beachboys Love You marks the release of the group's twentieth record and justifies no further identification of the advancing within, less elements much validation of their very existence. The Beachboys Love You is a straight forward plunge, yet it further propagates the group's especially Brian Wilson's microcosm of the American Dream. There is no fun in the sun on this LP. I suggest N.Y.'s Blondie if you want that. As of late the sunset is an orange fireball all aglow and radiant. It sets aside a space tor that occur in more, secular moments. Unlike the disasterous 15 Big Ones, virtually an all oldies package, this new album brings forth the re-emergence ‘of bountiful Brian Wilson as the masterful musician, discontinue lyricist, that arranger.and producer he is. As an onstage performer Wilson is all smiles, yet appearance his is often uncoordinated, as if he was totally insecure of his whereabouts. Once in the studio, however, Brian proves he can be as spontaneous and tasteful as his mentor, Phil Spector. A song ,on the new album, "Mona," pays direct homage to Brian's favorite producer. "Come on listen to "Da Do Ron Ron" now/Listen to "Be My Baby'VYou're Gonna Love Phil SoeCtor." First of all let it be mentioned th?t all 14 tracks on this album have been penned lay Brian Wilson, with only outside help coming from Michael Love, Alan Jardine and Roger McGuinn (of all people) on three tracks. Elsewhere, Earl Mankey of Quick and Sparks fame offers technical aid in the booth. If several songs fear over simplicity and naivity there are none that match the continually lackluster attempts of LP number 19, with reference in particular to the originals, "The TM Song," "That Same Song" and "Back Home." As a matter of comparison several numbers including "Roller Skating Child" and "Johnny Carson" which is about that same mechanical clown that appears on the tube every night after the news surface on TBB's LY as positive gems. If a song called "Johnny Carson" sounds ridiculous to you as it did to me when it first came to my respond hitherto attention, differently! Hokey, yet the totally infectuous pattern makes it a constant source of cheerfulness. Look now. Then listen and be surprised. It could be the sleeper single the group is desperately in need of. — — He sits behind his microphone John ny Car-son He speaks in a‘manly tone John ny Car-son Ed McMahon comes on and says, Here's John ny i Every night at 11:30 he's so funny... was in written .yvhich collaboration one night in the home of the ex. Byrd previously tapped, is another shoe-jn. Very playful stuff. Another song of interest is "Good Time" with its tantilysing back beat. For the record this number was first introduced by Spring, a duo which consists of Marilyn Wilson and sfster Diane Rovell. The cut was first released in 1972 as the single off their UA LP. In a recent review of this album Ken Barnes deduces that the cut may also have been an unreleased outtake from the tremendous Sunflower disc. Marilyn Wilson resurfaces on "Let's Put Our Hearts Together," seemingly to relieve husband Brian on a vocal part that his own range could not match. It is on instance, this one although "Airplane" and "Solar System" could be assaulted in which .Brian's dominance over the group rertders more harm than good. The resultant configeratlon falters nervous unsatiating with an quality, embellished in Brian's newfound adult awareness. For the members of the audience that cannot contend with the disc's several neurotic twinges and rough edged vocals, "Let Us Go On This Way" will probably allieviate much of the burden. Co-written with Mike Love, the song reinforces the stance of the group harmonies and bouncing doagulation. It is this one rocker that stands out amidst a scope of primarily dead-beat — tempos. No kidding! "Ding Dang," The Beachboys Love You might have as much impact as a war fought with blow dart guns against tanks. In other words, this LP will probably be ignored. Certainly this will count as a strike (sin) for all of you that neglect it and later wish to enter rock and roll heaven. This might possibly be their strongest album since 1970 (SunfIpjyverJj, Certainly catchy ail those songs and Brian Wilson )9P C®, more continues to the advocate experiences of the young in their white surburban ethos.

Friday, 29 April 1977 Prodigal Sun �Guest Opinion During the past two years, many courses of study have been cutback or diminished. We-have seen broken and tour expectations let down in several departments. Judaic studies is no exception. I would now like to bring to your attention a number of facts relating to this University’s indifference to the program'and to Professor Michael Silverman. He has been denied tenure and there are plans to hire a person of lower academic status for a lower salary. I hope you will follow ,the events in hope of getting a clearer picture of the situation at hand. In September of 1975, George Levine the provost of Arts and Letters urged that Dr. Silverman apply for tenure right away without stating if he had any question in his mind whether or not he was fit for it. Shortly after this incident the Classics department took a vote on Silverman’s eligibility for tenure. This resulted in a split vote that was mostly negative due to the fear that Classics’ money was being used to fund Judaic Studies especially in regard to summer school and other areas. Chairman Peradotto has expressed his willingness to admit to these difficulties that many have influenced the vote of Classics.' An Ad Hoc Committee composed of people knowledgeable in Judaic studies was appointed by the administration. Originally established in the fall of 1974 and reconvened in the fall of 1975, it was to haye equal weight to the Classics’ vote. On Januaty 13, 1976, it voted unanimously to recommend tenure to Professor Silverman. Then a,further vote was taken by the Appointments, Promotion and tenure committee of the faculty of Arts and Letters in February 1976. It was deemed confidential but was later learned that it was a split vote. George Levine late in February 1976 recommended against tenure and then invited Dr. Silverman to plead his case before the acting Vice President of Arts and Letters, President Ketter eventually deci.ded that tenure is not in orde 1976-1977 is set as the last year for Silverman ending on 8-31-77. According to United University Professionals, a person who has one positive vote can ask for the reason for denial of tenure. If they have two positive votes, they are permitted f to have these reasons reviewed by a Chancellor’s special committee with the Chancellor making the filial decision about tenure. Silverman asked that this procedure be put into effect but the reply that he received was that since the original vote of Classics was negative he was not even entitled to the reason for the denial. Thus, the Ad Hoc committee’s vote is totally ignored. Please note that according to the original procedure, the vote of Classics and that of the Ad Hoc vote should be counted equally as constituting the first stage. In such a case this vote is positive by a two thirds majority. Silverman contends that the procedure has been tainted and should be given over to the Chancellor’s special committee. The last suggestion has -been already filed for a grievance. In preparing his case, Dr. Silverman inspected his personal file and found no mention of the Ad Hoc Committee at all and that other pertimeiit he asked the missing. Shortly afterwards, documents were administration for correspondence in regards to the Ad Hoc Committee but was refused. This would appear to indicate a cover-up. In the fall of 1976, George Levine, Provost of Arts and Letters set up a search committee that excluded many people knowledgeable in Judaic studies except Dr. Adler. Originally, the goal of this committee was to recruit an Assistant Professor who would be eligible for tenure after completion of a doctorate. On a sample application for this position, the Hebrew language requirement was left open and the salary offered was considerably lower than what Dr. Silverman now earns. To properly administer a program like JDS, a person with tenure is needed so that the person will have enough authority to develop the program but to my knowledge this is not their intention. In my opinion hiring a less qualified person at a lower salary constitutes a cutback of funds and resources. Recently, the question has been raised'as to whether the search committee had the proper authorization from the administration. It has been found that they only received authorization a month ago and that they had been operating independently for a time. As for denying Dr. Silverman tenure the administration unofficially has claimed that he is not qualified though this seems questionable judging by his credentials. They also refuse to admit that budgetary questions are involved even though there has never been a permanent line allocated to J.D.S. For example, this year’s (1976-77) line is a special loan from the President’s office which will automatically revert back to the President’s office. From inquiring about the search committee, 1 was told that they were looking for someone who Ctmld be flexible to work with other departments, hopefully with a degree in History, Sociology or English. Here are all the cross-listed courses being offered this semester by Silverman in connection with other departments. They are listed in History and the religious studies program plus Modern Jewish history is taught by guest lecturers from History, Germanic, Slavic and Historical philosophical foundations of Education. In addition, some courses are given by History, College F (Maxine Seller, the American Jewish Experience) and are co-sponsored by Judaic studies. As to Dr. Silverman’s credentials, he has a B.A. from Harvard, PHD. from Brandeis, a Fullbright Fellowship to Israel from 1965-67. Only two are chosen from the entire country. He taught at the University of Texas at Austin for five years before coming to Buffalo. Areas: Ancient Semitic languages, Aramaic, Jewish History from Ancient to Modern Times. Publications: Almost a dozen scholarly articles and detailed book reviews plus a long monograph scheduled for publication in Germany. He has lectured to many national and international scholarly groups including the American Oriental Society, the Society of Biblical Literature and the Sixth World Congress of Jewish Studies in Jerusalem (by invitation only). Dr. Silverman has received some grants to continue his research. Also this year he has been nominated by some students for the Chancellor’s award for teaching excellence.

We would like to express our displeasure with reception with Hsia Kung-chuan, the Kuomintang (KMT) Consul General from New York City on April 22, 1977. Your action has constituted an unfriendly attitude towards many concerned American and Chinese members of this University community, who strongly favor normalization of relations between the United States and the People’s Republic of China. It has also run counter to the good and respectful intent and spirit of the Shanghai Communique as well as aimed at the creation of two Chinas, and thus confused the international issues among the University community. Since after Truman’s era, unfortunately, US-China relations have been distorted as the US government mistakenly became hostile toward the majority of the Chinese people by maintaining military and diplomatic ties with the then ousted KMT regime on Taiwan. By doing so, the US government had in fact lost an easy sum of $5 billion to the KMT between 1946 and 1965. Yet, today, the KMT still receives Public Law 480 assistance and military aid from the US despite the high inflationary rate being currently experienced by the American people here in the States. This year, 1977, shall mark a fundamental change in the implementation of the Shanghai Communique. Undoubtedly, the basis of the your continued failure of the US government to proceed to disengage militarily and diplomatically from the KMT that has been inevitably bringing about the stalemate in the normalization process of relations between the United States and the People’s Republic of China shall be soon recognized and Ultimately overcome. The ‘visit’ of Hsia has come to none but to spy on extracurricular activities of our students here from Taiwan (see The Spectrum April 25. 1977). We shall continue to expose all such immoral activities engaged in attempts to provoke the academic freedom of this University in no time. We thus strongly condemn all forms of political surveillance on and intimidation of foreign students on this campus. Therefore, by associating with the KMT activities here and now, you have been obviously refusing to recognize the above fact, and, above all, the common and sincere desire of normalizing the US-China relations of both the American and Chinese people. We hope that similar incidents will not reoccur in the future.

The Corps of Engineers insists that it is asking for monies lawfully entitled. In the words of Corps Major General !.N. Norris, “The construction of the locks and dam at Alton is not a commitment to a 12-foot channel on the Upper Mississippi.” > Uncontrollable losses In August of 1974 tAe coalition of railroad and environmentalists brought suit in to stop Federal Court construction. Federal Judge Charles Richey issued the decision’ that the Corps could not begin building specifically until "During the past forty or fifty years those who are responsible for education in many of our schools have progressively removed from the curriculum of studies the Western Culture which produced the modern democratic state. i The men who wrote the American Constitution and the Bill of Rights were educated in schools and colleges in which the classic works of this culture were the substance of the curriculum and the transission of this culture was held to be the end and aim of education. Modern education, however, is often based on a denial that it is necessary or useful or desirable to transmit the religious and classical culture of the Western world. The prevailing education is destined, if it continues, to destroy civilization, and is in fact destroying it." ... -Walter Lippmann CLASSICS THE DEPARTMENT OF CLASSICS OFFERS COURSES IN THE LANGUAGES, LITERATURES, ART, ARCHAEOLOGY; HISTORY, PHILOSOPHY.

A disservice Melvin Price of the Illinois House of Representatives said in the 1976 session that “it is a disservice to the people of this country by stifling expansion of industrial capacity primarily out of narrow concern for the well being of a competing economic interest.” He added that user fees shouldn’t be charged to barge operators. “It would come out of the pockets of every businessman and consumer in this country In the Congressional Record of June 1976 the barge industry was blamed for being inefficient in its towing method, ft was stated that the locks were only used 33 percent of the time. 66 percent of the time went unused during the approach, entry aud exits of barges from the chamber.

The Congressional Budget Office recently established that increased barge traffic as a result of dam expansion would cost the railroad industry $400 million annually. The state of Wisconsin fears the environmental hazard and has sued the Corps over the damage the dams have done to the Mississippi’s waters. Hopefully this will be the last spring that and ambiguity indecision linger over the Corps plan to expand Locks and Dam No. 26. Congress has procrastinated long enough.

Page seventeen �Clark Hall combats CLASSIFIED new scheduling woes AO INFORMATION MAY ADS p.m. Due to the increasing enrollment at the University and inadequate fjunds for a new athletic facility, many students are having trouble registering for physical education courses. This problem is compounded for senibrs who have,waited un'til their last semesters to fulfill this two-credit requirement. As of now, there are only eleven faculty members teaching approximately thirty courses. Clark Gym and the Bubble aren’t large enough to conduct more or larger classes. Thus, the Department of Recreation, Athletics and Related Instruction (RA1) has decided to conduct its own separate registration. Students will not be able to pre-register for gym courses this fall., Instead, students will have to go to Clark Hall (September 7-16) where the instructors will have sign-up sheets for the various courses. Other options Some space in all classes will be reserved for seniors. Although some of the more popular courses (i.e., bowling, tennis) may fill up quickly, there should be room for any senior wishing to fulfill this requirement. This method of registration has been used in the past and was found effective. There is one last option for seniors. If they have attempted to enroll in gym classes in previous semesters and cannot fit any of the available courses in their schedules next year, they may contact their Academic Advisors and request an application to waive the gym requirement. The Committee for Degree Requirements will review each application individually, and though exactly how the decision will be reached is not known, some seniors may have their requirement waived.

President A proposal, submitted by Group Legal Services (GLS), would use mandatory fees to provide students at SUNY at Buffalo with legal advice and representation at no charge. will be in demand during the summer sessions. McGill said until he is told where the classes are, what time in the evening the classes are over, and what the enrollment for summer session classes will be, he cannot make a definite scheduling commitment. According to class schedule already published for the three sessions this summer, the buses will not run past five o’clock. “Normally 5 o’clock would be the last run out of Ridge Lea, but we were not aware that classes out there end at 9:20. Well, of course we are going to do our best to meet that demand,” McGill said. The Summer Orientation program will be run at the Amherst Campus. Although those students will not be enrolling in classes, they may have need to view the other campuses. The Blue Bird Bus Company will operate under a new contract beginning in the fall. The contract allocates less money than the present contract. McGill said he will be looking “elsewhere in the University for money to supplement what they will get.” Less money Because the buses will be operat,ipg with less money, it is possible there will be Jess efficient service, McGill explained. At a time when we should be reducing service to make up for the difference in money allocated, it looks as though the.demand will be greatly increased.” We’re really going to meet the demands,” he said. At present he is working on a tentative schedule that will be made public soon. According to another administration spokesman the schedule will depend upon the amount of students that will register for summer classes. One of the main difficulties is that there is no way to find out the exact amount of students living in the area surrounding the Main Street Campus. Students who live off the Main Street campus afe in a predicament: they do not know whether to register for night classes. Those who are graduating and need to take classes on Ridge Lea or Amherst need transportation to be able to complete their . requirements. Nobody catches the ball Both Lorenzetti and Bradford said a meeting and decision on the matter are expected soon. Meanwhile, Brownstein and Lippes are hoping to confer with Ketter this week. Should the proposal be turned down, students will continue' to be compelled to go outside the University for legal representation fees. Those rules allow fee monies to be used for programs of educational, social and cultural enrichment and for student services to supplement or add to those provided by the University. Whether or not the proposal adheres to the guidelines has been the question. > proposal. , After arguments, Belli Levine receiving a copy of the memo, and University counsel Hillory Bradford would not comment, saying only that he had “received a communication from Albany regarding this matter.” ■The proposal has run into problems with the SUNY wide guidelines for use of mandatory Associate Vice President Lorrenzetti originally refused to approve the proposal pending clarification of its legality from SUNY counsel Walter Rellihan. Last week, GLS Director David Brownstein, former Student Association (SA) president Steve Schwartz, and GLS attorney Richard Lippes went to Albany to confer with Rellihan about the send a listening to their agreed to University Rellohan memo to ' at considerable expense. The —Vazquez Robert Ketter counsel Hillory Bradford stating that the decision would be left up to Ketter. Brownstein feels the memo'will be of a positive nature in that it will suggest that the proposal could stand a court test, should Ketter'decide to accept it, Lorenzetti did not acknowledge decision that the University Administration once claimed belonged to Albany, now is back in its hands. “They are tossing the ball around,” said Brownstein, “hoping no one will catch it.” Should Ketter reject the proposal, both Brownstein and Lippes expect to take the issue to State Supreme Court. “At this point we have waited so long,” Lippes said, “that if Ketter turns us down we’ll be going to court.” Lippes and Brownstein arc firm in their belief that the proposal is both of vital necessity and well the fee mandatory within guidelines. The SpECTI\U(V1 Vol. 27, No. 78 Wednesday, 27 April 1977 State University of New York at Buffalo Commentary Med Dean wrongfully attacked on merger study by Tom Batt Contributing editor When Dr. John Naughton, Dean of the Medical School at this University, agreed to coordinate a study of the possible merger of four Buffalo hospitals, he was hardly expecting to be cast as a culprit. That, unfortunately, is what seems to have happened to him and to much of the medical administration Were. It all began last January, when the hospitals — Deaconees, Meyer Memorial, Buffalo General and approached Naughton with the task of “developing a proposal f6r the coordinated use Childrens — and governance of their facilities and programs for the future delivery of health services to our community.” He accepted, and is now engaged in the work along with two task forces which he has assigned. Because of financial problems, the four hospitals are entertaining the notion of consolidation in the new $ 120 million Erie County Health Care Center on Grider Street. Boards must approve officials are Hospital wondering wfiether a merger could erase their red ink and improve medical care at the same time. They feel this might be accomplished through the elimination of unused beds and a curtailment of the four-fold duplications of services which Assemblyman Stephen R. Greco now take place. “It became obvious to us,” said Bruce J. Baust, administrator of Deaconess, “that funds to support construction had pretty much dried up.” “We felt that together we might be able to accomplish more than we could as individuals in terms of new facilities and operating efficiencies.” Though the task forces have been working On the problem steadily. Dean Naughton and others stress that no decisions made. A final have been recommendation is due July 1. Concerned parties have also been reminded that any proposal for consolidation will have to be approved by the governing boards of the four hospitals, the Western Systems New York Health Agency, and State officials in (D., Buffalo’) was quoted heavily in a front page Courier article entitled “Greco Raps Proposal for Children’s UB Bluntly Told - Merger Could Destroy Hospital.” Two facts must be recognized here: no “proposal” had yet or been announced, and has yet Assemblyman Greco has neither ithe information nor the expertise to say that Children’s or any other hospital could be destroyed if a merger did indeed take place. The fact is, no one knows the answer to that question yet. This is why a study was undertaken in the first — — _ place. Albany. Certain groups in the Buffalo area, however, seem intent on idea that propagating the decisions have been made and that of a conspiratorial they are nature. John Naughton — The Buffalo Courier Express, second largest daily in the area, has apparently appointed itself representative informal of anti-merger forces here. For the past month the paper has been at the front of. a campaign to torpedo any movement toward especially of Childrens merger Hospital., The Courier seems a convinced that Children’s institution world-renowned — — In that same article. Greco the wielded term “conspiracy” in referring to the way in which Naughton and other University officials are involved in the merger talks. “I will not,” said Greco, ‘‘takekindly to anything smacking of conspiracy by educational bureaucrats to snip off, as it were, one form of state and federal aid after another to (Children’s) it into hospital, driving bankruptcy and then claiming to rescue the place by smothering it at the county hospital.” Greco also seemed to threaten the administration here with a possible slow-down in legislative efforts to secure funding for the Amherst Campus: “We are doing what we can, but we are not encouraged in our pursuits in UB’s behalf by what loosely specializing in pediatric and will be obstetric medicine readily dismantled if merger takes — place. ‘Simply not so’ simply so,” “That’s not answers Dean Naughton. “Until we know for sure what the merger plan actually proposes? no one pan know what will happen with Children’s. Our goal is to maintain the optimum in pediatric care.” Through the Courier, several local legislators have unleashed abusive verbal assaults on the medical school here, attempting, some officials think, to gain political mileage by crusading facts and by browbeating imagined adversaries. early April, State In with distorted —continued on page 14— �Interview with John Naughton Merger would aid hospitals well as the entire City of Buffalo. will be the loss of services.

Wednesday, 2.7 April 1977 �Division of Budget University Libraries fail to receive additional funds Despite President Robert Ketter’s best efforts, the State Division of the Budget has not come up with additional money for the University Libraries, according to Acting Director Saktidas Roy. The 1975-76 fiscal year saw the Libraries’ budget cut by $300,000. The University Libraries received the same budget for the 1976-77 fiscal year, with an 11 percent inflationary increase, and are expected to receive the same in 1977-78, according to the Governor’s Budget Proposal. To compound the problem: The Division of the Budget has mandated a cut of 12 Full Time Equivalents (FTEs) for the first time this - year. ' The Undergraduate (UGL), Science and Engineering, and Lockwood Libraries must move to neW buildings at Amherst by the 1977-78 academic year. The University has to give up the Bell Storage Facility and Ridge Lea Library by — There may not be enough library persoryiel for all the buildings, and. some of the smaller units, Jike the UGL and the Science and Engineering Library will have to reduce hours. The Lockwood Inter-Library Loan Requests may not be met. The Music Library will have to lose its cataloguing services. The Art, Edison, Architecture and Environmental Design, and Chemistry Libraries might be absorbed into other units, according to Roy. In addition there will be no libraries at the Ellicott Complex. In response to the cuts, Roy has decided “all units will be affected equally.” On a national scale, our acquisition budget is far below normal. For the last few years, 20 percent of library staff positions have remained vacant. Of the five highest library (Director, positions administrative Associate Director, and' three Assistant Directors) only one is filled. These major library staff positions will remain vacant until a permanent Director can fill them. — June. This effects situation may have deleterious the University community. on The search is on The search for a new Director of the University Libraries is almost completed, and a search committee recommendation has been presented to etter. i6 search committee was chaired by University Archivist Shonnie Finnegan who replaced Dean of the School of Information and Library Studies George Bobinski, now on leave,. “Being an Acting Director has its limitations,” explained Roy, “and the search for a new Director should be completed as quickly as possible, but it should not be rushed, especially at this time.” The Libraries have received strong support from students, faculty, the . President’s office, and from Vice President of Academic Affairs Ronald F. Bunn according to Roy. “However,” he states, “this University has only so much leeway in its budget.” Roy does not want to give up any of the present library services offered, and wants to “sit down with faculty and students In order to decide on what cuts to make for the least disruption of service.” He said, “The most critical thing is that students should be informed that this time everyone will have to give up something.” Delia: referendum is clearly illegal Applications being accepted through April 29th, 5 pm for salaried position of van coordinator.

Delia has the support of the SA Executive Committee and the Student Senate for his challenge in the Student Wide Judiciary (SWJ) to the validity of the proposed referendum. Levinson, a long-time campus figure also known as Lev. has apparently complied .with the SA Constitution and garnered the signatures of at least one-tenth the undergraduate students on his petition to re-form SA info a credit-granting course. The student government for course credit petition was the first petition submitted under the present SA Constitution. Although Delia said that a tentative date of May 3 was set for the voting, he said he is seeking an injunction based on legal questions. The Student Seante. besides supporting the referendum challenge, last week also approved a motion asking that the SWJ report its decision by tomorrow, ft appeared Monday, though, that SWJ may not act before the end of the week. Delia claimed the referendum inherently violated the SA Constitution by putting forth a vote on “financial allocations to student organizations.” He also said it clearly violated student activity not providing a way for elected student fee guidelines by representatives to distribute the funds. —contnued on page 7 — The Spectrum is published Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the academic year and on Friday only tty The during the summer Spectrum Sludent Periodical, Inc.

Page three �Students demand new policies Strike shuts Old Westbury Other strike demands include: general amnesty for all participants and supporters in the strike; formation of a College Senate (including students, faculty and administrators), to constitute the school’s “highest body in all negotiated matters concerning the mission”; assurances of the development of proper supportive services in accordance with housing, educational support (remedial programs for students who need them), financial support, day-care and infant-care facilities, and health services. Acting SUNY Chancellor James Kelly, speaking before a conference of SUNY student media representatives in Albany Friday, admitted that “there is some question” as to whether SUNY is fully supporting the mission it assigned Old that Westbury, and ‘misunderstandings' have contributed to the student-administration confrontation there. Kelly did remark, however, that the school, “since it is a college on Long Island." may be shifting the emphasis of some of its programs to appeal to transfer students from other.SUNY institutions with higher admissions standards, but emphasis on the that the school’s "greater traditionally bypassed student” will continue. Although meeting with SUNY officials over the campus situation was another of the strikers’ demands, Kelly stated that Central Administration is intervening at the request of Acting University President Todd. When asked to comment on the strikers’ demand for a College Senate composed of students, faculty and administrators. Kelly, simply replied that an “improved governance structure" at the institution might be in order. Me added that he agreed to send representatives to the situation because it had developed into "matters beyond local control." Old Westbury began offering the opportunity for a college education “to the traditionally bypassed student” in 1070-71, and was considered to be 'J direct outgrowth of the educational innovativeness characteristic of SUNV in the late sixties and early seventies. The strikers, according to a s'pokesperson from the College of Old Westbury Student Coalition, are making an intensive effort to "remind the students of their history of struggle.” "What we have here at Old Westbury didn’t just happen, it was fought for; And no*w we have to fight to save it." she said. by Laura Bartlett Managing Editor —* — population appears to be participating. Although many demands and grievances have been presented to Old Westbury officials, the rallying point for many of the strikers is the firing of two faculty members exemplary of the school’s original mission in the SUNY system, which was to provide “traditionally bypassed” members of society the opportunity for a college education. Fired faculty Betty Barney, the only faculty member of the Afro-American Dance Department (and its founder) and Sam Anderson, originator of Old Westbury’s innovative Science and Technology Department, have both been denied reappointment after their current contracts expire at the end of this academic year. Barney’s tenure consideration was scheduled to take place next year, and Anderson’s employment has been determined by the university on a year-to-year basis for the past three years. Both are black, outspoken critics of the administration, and were part of Old Westbury’s original faculty. The strikers also charge in leaflets distributed throughout the campus that Old Westbury’s administration has quietly undertaken a campaign to change the school’s orientation from appealing to female, minority, working class and old students to a more, selective admissions policy. The administration attempted earlier this year to institute an “entrance examination” to incoming students, upon which their final acceptance could depend. Such a requirement, had it been implemented, would have effectively done away with Old Westbury’s “open admissions” policy, one of the few in SUNY. It was. however, strenuously opposed by the campus's Faculty-Student Committee on Admissions policies FALL 1977“= —= — BUILD A BETTER DEGREE WITH NEW PROGRAMS AND COURSE SEQUENCES Several GEOGRAPHY courses have been re-numbered for the Fall 1977 to assist in structuring your program design.

The strike has effectively shut down operation of the school, and no regularly scheduled day classes were held last week.

Three types of questions J;mis Somerville. GRt program director at ETS, said, “The new measure will test a student’s skills in a number of areas. Students will be able to show their ability to recognize logical relationships, draw conclusions from a complex series of statements, and determine relationships between independent or interdependent categories of groups.” She explained that, like the traditional measures of the GRH. the new test will use various kinds of questions. “Three types will be used in the analytical section: analysis of explanations, logical diagrams, and analytical reasoning questions, each designed to lest a different aspect of analytical ability.” she said. Somerville also explained that 410 formal training in logic or metlnWs of analysis is required to do well on the new measure. “Some analytical skills are required and developed in virtually all fields of study.” she explained. “And, like verbal and quantitative skills, analytical skills are developed over a long period of time and are not believed to be improved to any significant degree by intensive study in a brief period of time.” Still three hours Somerville also noted that the 1077-78 GRE Bulletin of Information will describe the new treasure and will include sample questions and explanations of the answers. The Bulletin is sent free to all students registering for the GRE. In addition, a Sample Aptitude Test containing the same number and types of questions as the actual exam can be ordered at one dollar per copy. Both publications will be available on August I. Despite the new addition, the GRE will remain a three-hour test since the verbal and quantitative portions have been shortened and the time saved allocated to the new measure. "The same research effort that produced the new measure also yielded shorter versions of the verbal and quantitative sections that are comparable in reliability and usefulness to the earlier and longer sections.” explained Somerville. The GRE is taken each year by about 300,000 college students as part of the admissions process to graduate school. The exam is offered six times a year, while advanced tests in 20 subjects are offered live times a year throughout the nation.

The Spectrum . Wednesday, 27 April 1977 1375 Millersport Hwy. Amherst - �) Three disarmament forums by Jay Rosen Spectrum Staff Writer The issue of world disarmament will be brought into national focus tomorrow at "The Buffalo Forum on Disarmament.” in the Fillmore Room. The first keynote speaker will be Grigory Berdennikov, a member of the Soviet Union's Permanent Mission to the United Nations. The Forum will run bn three consecutive Thursdays through May 12. Professor Associate of Philosophy James Lawler organized the event, which he says is unprecedented in its scope and content. Two other authorities on disarmament will highlight the last two sessions. They are Fehmi Allem of Lebanon, a member of the U.N. Center for Disarmament, and Dr. Byron Doenges from the United States Arms Control and Disarmament Agency (a panel of experts that participates in the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks [SALT] with the Soviet Union). Santos James Lawler the discussion. He feels that Americans have resigned themselves to accepting the arms race “People believe the issue is a hopeless one,” he commented. “My opinion is that there have been important limitations on arms, such as the agreement on biological warfare." Lawler said public opinion, both here and in the Soviet Union, plays a large role in the -paths the two nations lake in negotiations. "Both countries are very much concerned with their image in the community." Lawler world stated. Americans accept race Panelists from the scientific, religious and university circles will question the . authorities and discussion will be open to the floor. The aim of the Forum, according to Lawler, is to place the issue of disarmament m terms the public can understand, and disspell myths about the SALT talks and the issue in general. Lawler also hopes “clear concrete proposals -that people can comprehend" will come out of , Media fosters hopelessness Lawler was optimistic about • Faculty We urge all - The Royal Shakespeare Company is proudly giving one performance, that’s one performance only, of Sherlock Holmes , written by Arthur Conan Doyle and William Gillette and directed here by Tony Tanner. On Sunday, May 1, at 8:30 p.m., Sherlock Holmes will be presented at the Century Theater on Main Street. The play, a typical Holmes thriller, pits the sleuth against his arch-enemy Professor Moriarity and tl\e plot is a combination of two of Doyles’s most famous stories; A Scandal in Bohemia and The Final Problem. For those who want more than mere fun and suspense, Sherlock Holmes offers an intellectual debate between Holmes and Moriarty men who are twinlike in their emotional sterility and rationalist obsession. Neither would stoop to common violence and they share a devotion to refinement of craft they could practice whether they were woodcarvers or ditchdiggers. ATTENTION Staff and , Monday and Tuesday SHAVUOT the chances of the two nations reaching an agreement. "1 am hoping the atom can be used lor peace.” he said. Lawler repeatedly stressed the need for the'public to be aware of possible solutions that are both fair and realistic. In this regard he felt the media has helped to foster a feeling of hopelessness by covering the issue in a negative and confusing vernacular. This week's forum is an attempt to reverse the trend, and clear both sides of the issue. Lawler advocated public education of disarmament issues starting as early as junior high school. He did admit though that Americans are less fearful of the USSR today. "People arc less convinced that the Soviet Union is a threat to our society," he related, "but it’s not a question of simply trusting the USSR.” Honest, realistic proposals are what is needed, he felt. National security, frequently cit'bd as reason to continue the arms race, will “be even more threatened if the arms race continues." Lawler stated. He felt the American economy could easily make the switch from producing war goods to peace a goods without incurring significant loss of jobs. Such a conversion will never be necessary unless Americans address themselves directly to the problem and make their concerns known, Lawler said. The Buffalo Forum on Disarmament is his ambitious attempt at reaching that goal. — • Jewish Students May 23 and 24 is one of the Holiest Days of the Jewish Religion.

Wednesday, 27 April 1977 �Natural narrative Julian Bond of Georgia by Michael Hopkins Spectrum Staff Writer Once more Squire/Hall’s Fillmore Room was filled to capacity for tjie natural narrative lecturing of Georgia legislator Julian Bond, and once more the night was brighter for his presence. A fighter, a poet, a radical if you will, in a land where change, the bad rock of this land, has become stoned in more ways than ther are days, these years. Bond, who was intially denied his seat in the Georgia House of Representatives due to his anti-war position, enlisted the audience’s attention for the greatest battle of all, attentiveness the first step for ultimate victory. It is what high-school and college graduation urge upon their charges. It is called commitment. Julian Bond, from i Time to Speak, A Time to Act speakers Introduction finely done by sponsor. Minority Student Affairs, is a wave that Bond skillfully wove throughout the audience that night, his delivery a strong blend of sober wit, anything but dry, though. An occasionally playful grip does not crack'his face, rather, it accentuates the broad range of his topic-: us. Out on an, uni Laughing at oneself is his start, speaking of the affinity of “Whether the occasion is a teacher in •a college classroom, or a minister at the pulpit on Sunday' morning, or um a politican out on the, uh. out on the (laughter. Bond purposely caught), out on the stump soliciting votes, there’s a custom for the speaker to preface his or her remarks - with a series of hilarious anecdotes. The 'purpose of these anecdotes are to put you in a good frame of mind, to convince you that the speaker is a good person, that he’s got a sense of humor just like everybody else (smiles), and also it makes his speech appear to be longer than it really is. Here’s a hilarious anecdote (laughter).” As he comments on his recent hosting of NBC’s Saturday Night Live “It’s very serious to be funny.” While one may laugh at the irony implied here, the irony implicit in the nation’s air is no joke. “This is an opportune time for discussing history. Last year, in 1976, we celebrated two historical events of some significance. The first of them was the Fourth of July which celebrated the end of the first 200 years of the , American experiment with democracy,” while, as he just- for, the day. Now the Cabinet is hardly more racially or sexually intigrated than the one it replaced, but at Jeast appears albe to 1 belong to just as many private clubs.” Expressing disappointment that the Government adequately reflect the electorate vote that tipped the balance for the Democrats, as it had in I960, he went on: “Ten years ago, the noted sociologist, Dr. Kenneth Clark, described the ghet,to where most black people live, then and now, in the following way: ‘The ghetto is a social, political, educational, and above all, economic colony. Its inhabitants, he said, are a subject people, victims of the greed, cruelty, guilty, insensitivity, and fear of their masters.’ That description is still sadly true today. Today’s tragedy is not just that things remain does not pretty much the same, but that the removal of the more blatant forms of American Apartheid I discrimination through forced segregation] have made it too easy for too many to believe them to have been radically altered for the better. Nothing could be further from the truth. We are still last hired, first tired. We are still last in, first out.

It concerns an elderly black man who stopped going to church for more than 20 years, who. while hunting one fine Sunday morning, tripped over a stump, looked up and found himself staring into the eyes and rather large teeth of a huge, black grizzly bear, happy at stumbling upon noted, “It is, therefore, entirely reasonable now, for these v/aters to except their loyalty to be repaid, not such a quick meal.

Full Tuition “SUSTA” Support will NOT be given in the Spring 1977 Semester UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS Undergraduates who receive a maximum Tuition Assistance Award (TAP) (net taxable income of $2000 or less) and are eligible for a State University Scholarship Tuition Assistance Award (SUSTA) will not have their entire tuition covered in the Spring 1977 semester. The funds allocated for SUSTA by the Legislature will only allow a fifty-five dollar ($55.00) assistance per student in Spring 1977. CHECKSTOP INFORMATION FOR ALL STUDENTS Referendum " ' ***** . Delia feels the University Administration Would not collect the fee unless proper guidelines were set. He said it was SA’s responsibility to see that the funds are legally.distributed. The only terms used in the SUNY Trustees activity fee guidelines to describe the student body reponsible for distributing the fee is “the representative student organization.” No menyon is made requiring that the organization be an elected one. Legal agent dissolved Delia agreed that the referendum does not specifically discuss financial matters, but claimed by dissovling SA. and therefore the “legal disbursing agent, it was inherently deciding student financial matters.” Lev has accused Delia of “blatantly violating the Constitution,” and argued that he had submitted the necessary number of signatures a week before spring vacation. He said that the tentative May 3 voting date was clearly beyond the three week deadline within which a legal referendum must be held, according to the Constitution. Based on these charges, Lev has begun to circulate petitions tor the removal of Dennis Delia as President. Delia said that he has not violated the SA Constitution by seeking the injunction, and felt that he had acted within the spirit of the law. “I am concerned over the implications of whether someone walks off with 800 thousand dollars.” he said. He claimed that he was taking a position not only on the legality of the referendum, but on tire content and overall implications for the University.Much of the controversy surrounding the issue is over whether there really is an approved government-in-action course that will be offered by the University, and will handle the functions of student government. LevinSon told The Spectrum Monday that the curriculum committee of Tolstoy College had approved an experimental seminar through January of 1U78. but that Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg had overruled the committee and had only given approval for the course through the summer. While the course would be reviewed in the fall for continuation. Lev says that Spitzberg’s decision would be appealed. Delia also claimed that he was told by Acting Undergraduate Dean Walter kunz that an experimental ’course had been approved but only through the summer. “It is questions like these that I have, asked the Student Wide Judiciary to decide,” Delia said.

The Spectrum Page seven . �� Editorial x x The summer place We were more than a little shocked when we opened the 11 summer session class listing and found that there were no intercampus buses scheduled to run pqst 5 p.m. New bus scheduling director Roger McGill's explanation, that University planners were not aware that evening classes at Ridge Lea end at 9:20 p.m., is refreshingly candid. But we will rest easier when we see a revised version of the bus schedule with service up until that hour, at least. Likewise, we can appreciate McGill's opennes in admitting that a decrease in the bus service budget may lead to less efficient service. But, again, we would rather not let it go at that: too many members of the University community are dependent on intercampus bus service. This dependence includes traveling from one class to the next with a minimum of efficiency. Bus service between campuses is only spotty now. Further deterioration entails more disruptions in people's everyday lives, and impairs their ability to reach classes on time. If only indirectly, this threatens some students' academic livelihood, to say nothing of their emotional stability. It is also necessary to point out that suspending nighttime service during the summer will severely curtail the social lives of dormitory-bound students without automobiles. This will only make the University a less attractive place for summer study, and runs counter to efforts to promote summer enrollment. We welcome Roger McGill's honesty about the dismal prospects for intercampus bus service. We hope, though, he recognizes the importance of representing the students' interest in forestalling further cutbacks. Libraries in trouble The worst casualty by far of recent budget cuts here is the University Libraries. They are in deep trouble, and it's time to sound the alarm. Beset with an acquisition budget far below acceptable standards, and with 20 percent of the staff positions vacant the past few years, the libraries are currently without a permanent director, and therefore lack coherent leadership. When a new libraries director is chosen, he or she will immediately face another absurd cut of 12 staff lines by the Division of the Budget, and the monstrous logistical and administrative task of beginning the belated transition to the Amherst Campus. With these seemingly insurmountable odds, the prospects look poor, for the University Libraries ever becoming what they are supposed to be: a major research facility.

Wednesday, 27 April 1977 wmimxxsK. bullpen by David Rubin Special Features Editor Have you seen the new product on the market these days? it’s called the Acme Wonder Widget, and it’s the last word in widgets. The Wonder Widget cuts,-chops, slices and dices. It goes from 0 to 60 in four seconds flat. It relieves the sinus pressure and coughs due to colds within eight seconds; but gives months of relief with just a single use. The Widget is safe enough to use every day, but each one should last you up to seven years, and you can eat it with a fork, a spoon, or even with your fingers. The Widgets are disposable, bio-degradable, recyclable, and contains no cyclamates, saccharine, red dye number 2, aerosol fumes or artificial preservatives like BHA and BHT. What's more, the Wonder Widget has the child-proof dispensers which prevent children from doing nasty things with them. The Widgets come in assorted sizes and colors. The standard exterior paints come in black, blue, green, red, white, chartreuse and magenta. Orders can also be accepted for maroon, azure, lavender, maize and silver. If there is color you want that Acme doesn’t stock. Acme will try to create it specially by mixing their stock colors. The Wonder Wiget also comes in ten sizes: Personal, Economy, Family, Large, Extra Large, Extra Extra Large. Huge, Gigantic, Monstrous and Colossal. Acme doesn’t neglect the interior of your widget either. They will mix and match any of their exterior and interior colors to your specifications. They offer only seven materials, though, for inside upholstery: Burlap, Satin, Steel, Cashmire, Calf's Hair, Silk and for the eccentrics in the crowd, _ purchased with your Wonder Widget or anytime after. These range from quadrophonic earphones which plug directly into your eardrum all the way to monogrammed helmets (which for a limited time will be monogrammed at half price)., Yet despite all these incredible features and options, the Wonder Widget costs less than every other widget on the market. In fact, the Wonder Widget does what theirs does for less than half the price. But Acme realizes that even though its product is the best and cheapest on the market, many Americans still cannot afford to pay the entire purchase price at once. As a result, financing plans are available. You can take up 35 years to pay with no down payment and and an interest rate that’s actually less than the prime rate. As for warranties, Acme will replace any faulty part at no charge. In fact, if anything goes wrong, Acme will send a technician over within the hour, and if he can’t fix your widget in 45 minutes, Acme will give you a new Wonder Widget free or your money back with interest. How can Acme make such claims and earn record profits at the same time? Easy, they don’t advertise. That’s right. While the big five widget manufacturers spend millions blanketing American media with arguments that their widget is the most wonderful. Acme has taken these millions and put them into service, research and development and has come out with,a product so superior that it defies belief. Yes, using the antiquated technique of interpersonal communication, also known as word of mouth, the name of Acme Wonder Widget has spread across America. The wealthy admire the Wonder Widget’s luxury, while the less affluent laud its price. cotton. In fact, the widget has received acclaim from All equipment is standard on an Acme Wonder virtually all groups of Americans except one. Widget.

When one is afraid however, one can react in either negative manner; -Mr. Shapiro has negative I I, April 25) is the prevelance his fear is not of something, a positive or chosen to he This fear and mixed reactions to it are nothing new. In nineteenth-century ITirope many Jews feared anti-Semitism, with good reason. Many reacted by trying to assimilate into Furopean society and prefepding that Jewish history was a past to he rejected. Their children were lulled by Hitler. Others, however, decided to reject that which rejected them. These were the first Zionists. The Zionists felt that 5000 years of Jewish history, culture and religion comprised a civilization worth propagating. Jews were persecuted for believing in their own. cultural integrity; they built a nation which affirmed that culture. It sounds absurd to speak of Hitler in America. Minority cultures are being accorded new respect. No one objects to the new black hero, Kunta Kinte, who would not allow his children to forget their proud origins. Polish-Atnericans celebrate Paderewski Day, undistrubed. St. Patrick’s Day has become almost a national holdiay. If Mr. Shaprio does not tear anti-Semitism, he shouldn’t object to the celebration of a proud heritage. If he is afriad, he shouldn’t follow the tried and failed path of assimilation, of pretending that his only history begins in 1776. If all other minorities are free to assert their heritage, why not the Jews? Mr. Shapiro feels that Chug Israel is a group which exists for political agitation. It does not. It is geared toward educating all those who share a common interest in this cultural heritage. Because it lias been proven to the Jewish people that the world will not allow us total cultural freedom without political autonomy, we are naturally concerned about the maintenance of our own autonomy. If all other groups are permitted to educate their members and assert their rights, why does Mr. Shapiro object to the Jews acting in this manner? He speaks of a “ghetto mentality.” The most glaring feature of the European Jewish ghetto was tear caused by anti-Semitism. It is Mr. Shapiro who sutlers from a ghetto mentality; he is afriad. He will not assert his heritage for fear of negative reactions.

The red-bearded one removes a fat envelope from his back pocket, appears to whisper something to it. puts it back into his pocket, and gives the bulge a pal.

Immediate response to Lev's accusations appeared in Monday’s The Spectrum using sensationalism to try and scare the student population out of a referendum that they know is justified, that they know would bring a little more integrity to student politics (re: Lalonde’sChristmas gifts) rather than just having it look like the bureaucracy we have to deal with in Albany and Washington, that they know they would lose; who wants' course credit when he can make good money by just campaigning for a few days standing in (he union giving out coupons lor free drinks? I don’t know how far Lev is going as to the request of his setting up the new government, but the basic idea is right, and it is necessary. Ihese babies write about their integrity, and how they refuse to stand for this from Lev, who they called all sorts of names. They weren't defending themselves, they were trying to take the offensive by lowering Lev in the students’ eve. so that they wouldn’t take his proposal seriously. Put right on the line. I don’t like the fact that the SA president gets S2000 for a Can any stipend (that’s not a stipend, that’s a salary), or that the people urider hint get a nice round sum, too. I don’t think he doe» anything to deserve it, or if he does it certainly doesn’t show itself to the little people.” Jeff Lessoff. in his closing remark, said that Lev was a radical left over from the sixties (radical, sir? Define that. O knowledgable one'), as if to imply that he was a man of the times and Lev is not. That may well he true, but it doesn’t take away from the’fact that he cares more about the quality of student government than you do. it seems. Would you be in the student government if it was for course credit? Apparently as the evidence in your defensiveness shows, you would probably have to give it a lot of thought. Was there something wrong with the sixties idea of trying to change things? I know, I know-no, not if it doesn’t affect you personally or your goals. As long as you can keep apathy in the forefront, you’ve got nothing to.worry about, right? Right. Maybe some people, like Lev, want to-change the if it doesn’t deliver what it promises., You defendants better quit while you’re ahead, and have the referendum to save face.

For the last the union, students in harassing he has been months and annoying them to the point of not letting them eat lunch until they signed his petition calling for the abolishment of SA.

And what would happen to the stipend money. It would be used to the teachers that will teach these pay cpurses. And who would teach these courses? He says he would. As they should the SA officers are questioning the validity of this petition, and are attempting to send it td .the STiide.nt Wide Judiciary. Now, not content to lei the Student Wide Judiciary decide on the matter, he has authored two new petitions to recall two of our newly elected student leaders, .Dennis Delia, president and Jeff Lessotl.

Let me give you a little background oil Mr ■evinson To the Editor I consider it an insult that you have such little students’ abilities to in your fellow comprehend the written word and to withstand intimidation. It seems to me that the SA is afraid to bring the proposal forward. Has SA become so entrenched with power, it now violates the spirit of its own faith In response to Student Association President Dennis Delia and former SA President' Steve Schwartz, I would like to inform them of a few facts. First of all. as a signer of Michael Levinson’s petition 1 was well aware of what I was signing and its implications. 1 felt then and still do. that it is an innovative idea which should be attempted or at the least, should receive direct, thoughtful very consideration by the whole student body. Secondly, Lev did not pressure me or anyone e.lse 1 obserVed signing the petition! 1 asked him questions concerning it and he answered them. constitution? Are you that afraid of the referendum or the loss of your power? If the proposal is as bad as you claim it is. I’m sure it will be seen as such, hut your tactics only make me believe that you are out to save In his student days he ran for SA president and lost by a landslide: He also applied for Executive Director of Sub Board, and was laughed at. Perhaps it is a little more than a coincidence that he is now trying to recall the*SA president, and the V.P. for Sub Board One. As a student I urge all students to stand up to Mr. Levinson next time he comes up to you in the union, and tell him where he can stick his petitions. bare Harttbaiul yourselves. Gerald J. Marctwcia A letter by Michael Stephen Levinson Petitions are being circulated to recall Dennis Delia and Jeffery Lessoff from office in the SA. According to the Constitution, a petition to recall an officer from SA requires only 5 percent of the Undergraduates to sign. The recall must be specific, like breaking the Articles of the Constitution that charge them, upon receipt of a petition signed by 10 percent of the student body to, within one week, validate the petitions and hold a meeting of.the Senate and within two more weeks (a three-week period) hold a vote. Have the referendum. The petitions to hold the so-called ‘Leverendum,’ making the Student (lovt. for course credit instead of money, were received by the office of elections and credentials on Friday, the week before spring recess. A well publicized meeting of the Senate should have been called for the following week and the student body should have voted on the issue last week. The hacks were given had advice and Suppressed the student's right to a vote. Play by the rules or gel slapped in the hand by a ruler. The recall petition goes directly to the Student Wide Judiciary whose duty is to investigate the validity of the charges did they do it? Bye Dennis bye J efferv A complaint is being filed with the Student Wide Judiciary today against Dennis Delia for not putting the petition up to a vote in a referendum. The Student Wide Judiciary is charged under the SA Constitution to order President Delia to put up those booths and let the students have a vote, if indeed he received a petition, which he did. The SWJ cannot consider the legality issue (which is bullshit) until after the vote. What I would like to do is write the Structural Analysis so that everything is explained to everybody, so you know how to cast your vote, but I can’t yet because I was slandered in the last Senate meeting and President Delia lied to them as he has in the past. I might have to circulate a petition of consideration in order to be on the agenda (signatures of 2 percent of the student body), but any 40 students can petition to speak before the senate-appoint a representative and introduce an item for consideration. The next Senate meeting might be this Wednesday. They have appointments to make chunks of money to give away the old pork barrel.

I ssistuiil S/torts Editor Pilcher Bill Casbolt continued dominating the Buffalo mound with a pair of superb performances the weekend as the Bulls split two doubleheaders at Pittsburgh on Friday and West Virginia on Sunday. Casbolt got a save with some clutch pitching in the last inning against Pittsburgh and held West Virginia scoreless the next day. over Casbolt turned in his most exciting effort in the first game at Pittsburgh. Ron Nero had started for the Bulls, bin gave way to Casbolt in the seventh inning with one out. the bases loaded and Buffalo ahead by one. Casbolt used a combination of curve -balls and sliders to get the first bdt'ter to pop up and the second to fan. The Bulls won that game 5-4, helped in part by Mike Grub’s two run single. Hard worker Casbolt started the first game against West Virginia, which gave him three appearances in three days (Casbolt pitched in the Bulls’ home opener against Canisius). Despite all that work. Casbolt pitched a shut-out and Buffalo won 3-0. Casbolt again relied on his curves and sliders. “He hasn't let me down yet.” said Monkarsh.who also credited the team’s strong defense in the win. Mike Dixon had two hits in that game,and two suicide squeeze bunts brought in two more runs. Buffalo had a taste of their own medicine in the second game when they were shut out. “We just didn’t hit the ball." explained Monkarsh. Buffalo got only three hits in that game. Don Griebner started for the Bulls, with Luke Owens coming in the third and Craig Wart filing in the sixth. The Bulls face the Big Red of Cornell today in a at Peellc Field, starting at 1:30 p.m. Cornell is presently leading its league and is favored to win the Ivy League title. "They have a good team and it should be a very interesting doubleheader to watch." predicted Monkarsh. doubleheacfcr In the second game of that doubleheader, the Bulls got 14 hits, but left twelve men on base. “We didn't get the big hit when we needed it." noted BfilTalo coach Bill Monkarsh.

Casbolt, the only senior on the pitching staff, picked up two wins and a save in a recent three-day span. First, he pitched two and two-thirds innings of shutout relief on Thursday to beat Canisius. Next, with Buffalo leading Pittsburgh 5 4 in the last inning, Pittsburgh loaded the bases with one out. Casbolt came in and retired the side. The next day, Casbolt pitched a six hit shutout at West Virginia.

The Courier-Express seems to have appointed itself guardian of Children’s Hospital, stopping little short of charging this University with conspiracy to push through merger plans which would "destroy” Children's.

Section 1: 1st Ron Kensek, 2nd Darryl lst-2nd (tie) Wiley Youngs, Dean Barron. Martman. Section 2 For the first time since 1?72, this University held an athletic awards banquet Thursday night. Some people liked the event, others disliked it, and former Student Association President Steve Schwartz thought the steak was tough. Even though he was served roast beef. However, there was unanimous agreement that the idea of an athletic awards dinner,was a good one. When the dinner was an annual affair before 1972, several big names such as Howard Cosell and Jim McKay were guest speakers, but the banquet was dropped from the sports schedule. It was reinstated this year because the Alumni Association donated a large sum of money so it could be held. Although «no announcement about football was made, UB Alumni Association Vice President Mike Guerico announced that the parties involved were still working for an agreement and left everyone with the impression that there would indeed be football next year. Delia speaks Current SA President Dennis Delia who enjoyed Ills steak, added that for tlje first time in a long while, the future of athletics here looks bright and that it -s once again “in vogue’’ to be an athlete. I don’t know about whether it’s in vogue to be an athlete again, but Delia was certainly right about the future. The combination of Delia, Athletic Directors Ed Mffto and Betty Dimmick and (he Foundation have changed the path of athletics for the better. Among the awards given were letters to many varsity athletes and most improved awards to several women. Eight athletes were honored for receiving the Clifford C. Furnas Scholar-Athlete Award of up to $1000 for graduate work. Furnace was chancellor of this University from 1954-1062, and was an outstanding athlete at Purdue. The eight receiving the awards were: Bill Cole (tennis). Marylin Dellwardt (basketball and volleyball), Rob Gurbacki (tennis). Jack Kaminska (hockey and baseball), Mark Karrer (soccer), Bill fmmh Mir* and track) and Joel Solomon (fencing).

Walter Qantz, assistant professor of Speech Communications, volunteered to coach track and cross country for free, received one Silver Bull. The other went to Guercio, who helped revive the banquet. Mike Hirsch of the golf team received the ECAC Medal of Merit for both academic and athletic ability, and bowler Gigi Ruddy received the Most Valuable Player award of all women’s athletes. Some of the jokes told by Master of Ceremonies Edmond Gicewicz were a bit old, and it definitely got a little dull when the list of all the athletes was read and the athletes stood up. Still, most people I talked to had a pleasant evening., and I’m sure that the banquet will be an annual event in years to come. Potpourri: Gantz finished 120 in a field of over three thousand people at the recent Boston Marathon ' . Several changes have been made at Peelle Field. First, the bleachers on the first base side of the diamond have been removed. The Bulls also are wearing white tops, instead of the blue they wore last year. I liked the blue uniforms better. If is rumored that a certain member of the tennis team didn’t like the way his steak was cooked Friday night in Binghamton, so he sent it back. Later, the rest of the team kidded him, and when he was brought ice cream, another member of th$ team asked, “Are you sure you don’t want to send that back too? It doesn’t look frozen enough.” John Moore, the hockey Bulls’ goaltender, will attend training camp with the Buffalo Sabres next fall, and will probably be assigned to one of the Sabres’ minor league affiliates. Moore was also voted MVP for the Bulls’ 1976-77 campaign. Ray Gruarin was elected captain for next year, and Chris Bonn won an award entitled “Spirit of UB Hockey.” __ April Zfl at foOftf.

L., Robin Schimminger (D., Tona.) has initiated a petition drive urging Governor Hugh Carey and the State Health Commissioner to “save Children’s Hospital as an autonomous regional institute.” Reacting premature to attempts to block a merged at all costs, and before the facts are in, Robert Scheu, S. former Chairman of the Buffalo General Board of Trustees, said this: “There are those in the dream stage who don’t understand what —continued from page 1 • • the problems are. The short-term, naive emotional approach is that things can stay as they are.” “Those who say we can go on the way we are,” he continued, “are sounding the death knell for these and other institutions. One by one, as more money is lost under the present system, we’re going to shut our doors.” The debate over merger is bound to be long and heated. Some proponents . of the status-quo are going beyond rational means to preserve it. They cloud the issue with sensationalism and over-dramatization. When the issue is studied cooly, these facts seem to emerge: The financing of all four hospitals is at best precarious. If they do not act soon to eliminate the costly upkeep of unused beds and the- wasteful duplication of services which now takes place, they face ever increasing costs Tuition waivers Foreign Student Tuition Waiver Applications for Summer 1977 and for Fall 1977 semesters are not available at the Office of Financial Aid, 312 Stockton Kimball Tower Hall. The deadline for applications for either semester is May 16. Only those students who are on an F or J visa are eligible to apply for the waiver. The Financial Aid Office is open Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Page fourteen . The Spectrum . Wednesday, 27 April 1977 — while revenues dwindle Children’s Hospital, though it commands world-wide respect and recognition, faces even greater problems than the other three. With each passing year registering declining birth rates, Children’s must expect to suffer continuing decrease in demand while maintenance costs, equipment prices, and physician salaries skyrocket. The possibility of Children’s very survival resting in merger must be faced squarely, and it must be faced soon. —. At all four hospitals, the physical plant is aged, and in some cases, badly deteriorated. Considering this, new plants will eventually have to be built to replace the old. Consolidating the County’s new Grider Street facility may save many millions of dollars in the long run. New buildings cost money. If the four hospitals do consolidate at Grider Street, it is possible and even likely that cost to patients would rise. What remains to -be seen, what must be studied intensely, is whether a merger would bring Buffalo better health care at a sensible increase in costs — to consumers.' Until the task forces studying the question announce their results, false accusations, opportunism and the forwarding of personal biases can only serve to cloud the issue and thereby hurt the interests of the people of Buffalo.

No. 77 State University of New York at Buffalo Monday, 25 April 1977 The rites of spring Off-campus search begins with limited market by Beth Simon Spectrum Staff Writer Students sit around hastily filling out forms, while landlords drift in and out flaunting the qualifications of their available apartments. Amidst all the hustle-bustle and the endless questions, a frantic voice is heard, crying, “I need a house!” It’s the house-hunting season and the Off Campus Housing Office in Room 342 Squire Hall is swamped once again. A reported five hundred people have filled out surveys since it began operations two weeks ago. “The real crush began immediately after we got back from vacation, but now people are really starting to get nervous,” said Director Heidi Lewis. One staff member, John Puma, added, “No matter what you do, there are always more people looking than available apartments.” At present, approximately 450 houses have passed through the office files. The list is primarily compiled through surveys sent to students who live off campus, inquiring if they will remain in their apartments. The surveys also ask them to specifically rate their landlords and the apartment themselves. From these responses and information gathered from themselves as well as from students and landlords stopping in and filling out forms which are then posted on bulletin boards outside the office, the service gets rented so the after day. “It aggravated by they bother to houses remain on the board day is not until people become very constant calls from students that let us know,” said Lewis. its inventory Red Giant Agency ‘Landlord Availability’ list used ‘Landlord Another tactic is a Availability’ list, which, compiled last year, contains the names, addresses and telephone numbers of most landlords renting in the UB area. These landlords are sent letters and their responses serve to swell the numbers of available units. The service operates the same way it did last year. Students fill out surveys which are then fed into a computer. The computer prints out a list of up to ten houses which meet the students’ qualifications. The program used by the computer has been slightly updated.- At present it will not print out the same house more than five times in one week. Obviously, this serves to prevent 200 people from all looking at the same house. One problem with the service is that landlords often do not call up after their houses have been The Off Campus Housing Office is not the only alternative open to students. Many opt to work through actual real estate brokers. One such firm is Red Giant, located on Main Street between Winspear and Northrup. “Red Giant guarantees one year’s service and also guarantees to work with you until you are placed,” asserted Mick Thompson, vice president of the nationwide company. One often cited hangup is the $45.00 fee charged to prospective tenant. Landlords can input houses free of charge, which is the reason that Red Giant has so many listings Another reason for this, as Thompson sees it, is reputation. “1 would imagine we are the largest firm in Western New York and we’ve been here the longest,” he said. Thompson continued that most of his business does not come from students, although many students do use the agency Amherst move One of the major issues now in the Off Campus Housing business is the movement of students and classes from Main Street to the Amherst Campus. Landlords are going crazy buying out apartments in Amherst because they fear their houses in Buffalo will become worthless after the shift, said Lewis. Aside from the expensive taxes in Amherst, the competition among landlords is driving the prices up, which will result in high rents, perhaps prohibitively high. The only positive effect of the transition is that once students start moving to Amherst, the demand for Buffalo apartments will go down, Thompson surmised. “Hopefully, so will the high rents that some big landlords are able to charge,” w she said. For now though, the rush is on and to everyone who is frantically searching the situation appears desperate but it’s helpful to know someone is there to help. �Spectrum interview 4 9 trial his of inequities alleged explores Johnson by R. Gilbert Contributing Editor The first trial of Kenneth Johnson ended last week. The all-male 'jury handed down a verdict that acquitted the black East Side resident of charges stemming from one incident of rape, but reached no decision regarding a second charge of rape. That indecision will most likely result in a retrial on the remaining charges. Johnson, was arrested almost one-and-a-half years ago. Interviewed on Friday in his South Division home, Johnson expressed disappointment and outrage. Determined'to vindicate himself, he is also maintaining a fervent battle against Buffalo’s judicial and police systenis, demanding accountability for their alleged “misconduct.” Over the course of an hour. Johnson explored the jury’s decisions, the problem he now faces and his plans for the future. Racist attitudes The Spectrum. Why a hung jury? Johnson: Naturally it was a whole lot of factors, bht I think it was primarily the racist attitudes of the jury that led to their no verdict. The evidence in this case so clearly points to my innocence that only other factors could be responsible for anything less than an acquittal. For example, only two of those jurors live in Buffalo (jurors are selected from a county-wide pool], and no matter what they say, there is no way they can have any kind of understanding of the black man when they’re living out in the white suburbs, I wasn’t judged by a jury of my peers that jury wasn’t black, wasn’t podr. and wasn’t even Buffalo. The Spectrum: Did you feel you had a particularly racist jury, and that possibly you'll get a better one the second time around? Johnson: Well, we don’t know. we can get a black person on it, If there'll be a real improvement. Radical, conservative, it doesn't matter a black juror will act as a check on any overt racism among the jurors. He’ll demand a thorough look at pretty much just the facts. As to how we’ll get that black juror, we’re going to start a mass campaign to register blacks in the jury pool. 1 mean, the fact that there was only three, instead of the eight blacks needed for a representative jury pool, that points to something intentional that we have to actively fight. Motions in the courtroom just aren’t going to solve the problem. — - UNIVERSITY PHOTO University Photo will be open Tubs., Wed., Thurs. 10 a.m.—3 p.rri. /Vo appointment necessary. 3 photos — S3.95 $4.50 4 photos each additional with $.50 original order Reorder rates — — $2,00 $.50 each additional 3 photos — University Photo 355 Norton Hall All photos available for pick-up on Friday of week taken The Spectrum is published Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the academic year and on Friday only during the summer by The Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc.

Johnson: Well, we’ve managed to raise in a big way a lot of questions about justice, racism and rape due to the trial. We’ve gotten a whole lot of people large questioning, moving numbers of black people have shown concern for my case, and that’s a tremendous advance because it just doesn't happen in the black community. This case has politicized a lot of people, not just the younger, but the older folks. They’re starting to understand how difficult it is to obtain justice in Buffalo, and-why that is. As for the effect on my (rial, the fact that we had the court filled a whole lot of the time, showed the judge, (he prosecutor, and the jury that there were a lot of people concerned with this case. That definitely made a difference in what went on. The Spectrum: Where do you from here? go Johnson: Well, right now money’s our biggest problem. We’ve got S5000 still to pay for this trial, and the next one will be almost S 10,000 probably. ,So fundraising is a priority.

Welch Special to The Spectrum Second'Mesa, Ariz.) It was crowded in the yellow school A few lights made the interior, stuffed with traveling gear and school supplies, glow warmly in the night. Many of the young women were knitting socks, caps or sweaters while they listened to the words of their peers. Their male counterparts listened as well. They were gathered at one of the daily meetings of the one of a kind Trailside Country School, a nine-month long collegiate study expedition with emphasis on the ecological sciences and environmental education. The students travel about 25,000 miles of the United States in the awkward Trailside bus each year. The intensity of living so closely for almost a year necessitates the daily “encounter group” sessions. The school, with offices in Killington, Vt., hasn’t had a dropout since it was established in 1968. Kenny, a tall, dark, wavy-haired, bright-eyed wit of 17 years, spoke about how he often felt ostracized by the group. He was afraid, he said, to speak out for fear he might be laughed at for saying “diner” when he really meant “dinner or something.” (CPS — — 1 bus. — —continued on page 5 — That rabbit was sillier than we thilought. Earth Week and Food Day was celebrated last week a reminder that we are part of the natural environment we inhabit. - 1 Group reassurance Kenny also was bothered by a joke he’d made about his dead mother. (Kenny had been close to her. lust before she died they had argued. His mother wanted him to stay at her bedside; he leftexplaining his homework was late and more important. Her death led him to seek escape in drugs.) He said it was irresponsible for him to have punned and wrong that others had laughed. A few of the twenty 16- to 21-year-old students of the unique year-long traveling college remained silent. For the most part, though, the women looked up from their knitting and waited with the men to comment. Many of the students criticized Kenny for being hard on himself; for not tolerating the simple sort of mistakes we all make. It was difficult for Kenny to accept, but after a period of honest speaking out, revealing that he felt “dumber than you other guys,” he was affected by the rational logic of the group members.

Students from Taiwan and Iran suffer most as result of such surveillance and intimidation. In May 1976, the National Association of Foreign Student Advisor (NAFSA) met in Washington, D.C. to investigate nationwide campus political spying on foreign students, following reports of alleged Kuomintang (KMT, the government party of Taiwan) spying and intimidation of students who read books or go to movies from or about the People’s Republic of China. On a recent CBS program “60 Minutes” the Shah openly admitted the activities of SAVAK (the Iranian secret police) in the United States. The GSA Foreign Student Affairs Committee condemn all forms of political surveillance on and intimidation of foreign students. We shall expose some of the immoral activities of these secret agents, and urge that proper measures be taken against them immediately. The Daily Californian outlined alleged KMT spying activities at the University of California at Berkeley. Nearly every Chinese professor and student conceded that someone watched and reported on students. St. Paul Pioneer Press interviewed students from Taiwan. “They have power over us,” a student said, “they can cut off our connection between us and our family.” Threatened reprisals, he said included that their families in Taiwan could be threatened with punishment, that students could be given jail terms if they return home, and that they could be assaulted in this country. . Cornell Daily Sun and Boston Globe have published a series of articles on KMT incidents at Cornell and MIT. When the KMT Consul General in New York City, Kung-chuan Hsia talked at Cornell, one student was evicted because he asked that questions be opened to the floor. On January 6, 1976, a KMT student was caught taking pictures at the Forum “Missies in Taiwan.” Brett Klein of The Spectrum reported Iranian secret police (SAVAK) activities in CUNY, last March. A center to coordinate all National University of Iran’s American Collegiate programs was set up at Queens College so that “SAVAK can have a continually update account of not only the academic records of Iranian students in America, but also diverse anecdotal information about their activities in and out of class.” The Village Voice alleged that a quiet $100,000 deal between the Shah and CUNY “offers a boom to his secret police.” The Iranian People's Struggle in the March issue revealed the deep involvement of SAVAK in the affairs of Iranian students abroad, 5s well as their action against the Confederation of Iranian Student National Union. All these reports point to the fact that many foreign students in this country are living under constant surveillance, with their basic human rights violated, their privacy infringed and their security threatened. We deplore the toleration of these acUvities. a Jewish Student Union presents - The Fixer an award winning film starring Alan Bates and directed by John Frankenheimer Monday, April 25th at 8 pm Norton Conference Theatre • mm Admission Free Paid for by The • Jewish Student Union.

Direct from Oregon State University in (CPS) Corvallis, Ore. comes this made for prime time caper: “April 6 Two persons wearing ski masks and armed with a firebomb and fire extinguisher attacked the campus security office and escaped with one bag of marijuana from a display case.” Maybe there’s a dope draught out in Oregon, or the two criminal types were pretty desperate. The assailants entered a second floor security office sometime after dinner, and threw the firebomb against an office wall, following that action with a quick spraying of carbon dioxide from the fire extinguisher. Security police at the university said that the marijuana taken was at least 10 years old and due to its age the intoxicants are gone and it would be like smoking dried leaves. - Marcuse: “New Left Not Dead” (CPS) Speaking at Washington University in St. Louis, Mo., Herbert Marcuse told an overflow crowd that the new left, which emerged 10 years ago is “by no means dead.” Marcuse, now a professor of philosophy at the University of California at San Diego, called the new consciousness of 60’s a revolutionary and socially dynamic beginning, but the movement, he said, was “politically - immature.” “The movement was in a position where it could be easily defeated,” Marcuse said suggesting internal struggles which hurt the new left. Marcuse added that the structure of the capitalist system has caused a crisis in the world today, citing a conflict between national and capital. “We are in a situation where things tend toward superfluity of the labor-oriented,” he said. Now, when corporate recruiting is at an all time high on college campuses, Marcuse warned students to “fight against degrading schools and universities that train students to work for large corporations. Special schools Another horse story The Wall Street Journal reports that (CPS) thousands of West Germans may have eaten sausages of U.S. horse meat believing they were made from beef, according to customs officials.

Always out to make a good impression, these students are also dressing the part, jackets, dresses, the old knock ’em dead with style ploy. Starting Saturday - \ "o "brands AT 1 • ‘Les Blancs’ to play Harriman Theatre Lorraine Hansberry’s finest and final work Les Blancs will open at the Harriman Studio Theatre next week. Fans of Hansberry’s Raisin in the Sun will not want to miss it. Les Blancs is, in the words of Julius Lester, “a masterful play, an almost pure distillation of Lorraine Hanberry’s personal political philosophy.” The previous reactions to that philosophy have reached all the extremes and all the gray areas. It is, superficially, a play concerning the politics of imperialism and vice versa, but more importantly it is a play about politics not as, ideology but as caring, the quality of life and the sacrifices necessary to provide a life worth living for as many as possible. The principal character is Tshembe Matoseb, a young African who has returned to his home from England to attend the funeral of his father. The play opens with the arrival of Charlie Morris, an American reporter from the U.S. who has come to the mission to write a story on the mission founder, Reverend Neilson. There is also Major George Rice, a white settler and major of the colonial reserve army; Dr. Willy DeKoven; Abuseb Matoseb and Eric Matoseb, who are Tshembe’s brothers; Peter, a servant at the mission, and Madame Neilson, who is the wife of the Reverend. Through the principal character, Tshembe, Lorraine Hansberry explains much of her personal philosophy, the reasons why she lived her life as she did and why she wrote the plays she wrote. Her work is an expression of rage in response to oppression: That rage should not separate people, but should be shared. The play is relevant and pertinent to these times both at home and abroad when one (without defenses) considers the realities of discrimination in America and the battleground of contemporary Africa. Les Blancs is being presented April 28th to May 1st, and May 5th to May 8th at 8 p.m. Tickets are $1.00 for students and senior citizens and $2.50 for general admission. Tickets are being sold at the Norton Squire Ticket Office. ‘ , — Worth, Texas. Later investigations showed that the Belgian businessman had previously sold a total of 65 tons of horse meat, falsely labeled as beef. The meat was later sold to sausage makers and distributed to retail stores. VOTE • VOTE For the continuance of GSA, Dept.

Cohen, who created Trailside along with his wife Diana. It’s a symbol for life Shared experiences Kenny’s growth was just one of the scenes common to the school’s daily meetings, designed to expose the faults and virtues of each member so that they can individually decide which quality is valuable and which comes from irrational conditioning. The daily sessions are also used by the group to collectively arrange their traveling itinerary and assign responsibilities to each student. Said one student: “You learn to respect yourself a lot more because you have feedback from all those people that you’re living with so closely. You’re telling them how you feel and you find out a lot about yourself and about a lot of other things, about a lot of other people.” Although the Cohens believe the interaction between their students is an important aspect of the school’s curriculum, they have extended this concept more fully to education brought through conversation and shared experience with tradespeople, professionals, and others they meet along the road. ' “In other words,” explained Mike Cohen, “out there are people like the President or lumberjacks or forest rangers; we try to step into their lives saying you know something we’d like to know it too.” ’ — Environmental forces It has taken years to develop their techniques and concepts into a program which is accepted for full college credit at many schools. Students pay $4,700 to cover all costs of the nine-month long school year of three semesters, with one to three week breaks in order to test what they’ve learned against their home environment. Trailside also offers a summer program at $3,300, which covers all expenses. The Cohens, both professional educators, along with Penny Trocco,' a former student, and her husband Frank have developed a score of courses based on the “undeniable fact that any entity or action on the face of the earth has been molded by the forces of its past and present environment.” The thrust of the Trailside curriculum and indeed the whole expedition, is to demonstrate to the student that to be educated and in control of oneself, you must discover the environmental forces which have made the world and the individual. Given this understanding, Mike Cohen said, the individual has the “freedom and power to identify and sensibly change himself by changing the mold which shapes him.” r ■ - ., Sub-Board I, Inc.

Monday, 25 April 1977 The Spectrum ftge five . . �c EditPrial Oft-campus nightmares There is a notorious student landlord who is raising the rent for all of the fifteen or twenty apartments he owns by ten dollars a month. That's 120 dollars more for a variety of ramshackle tenements and delapidated, decaying hovels which are passed off each year as average student apartments. The unlucky students who will occupy these places will now pay $72.50 a month instead of $70.00. The landlord will only rent to students who sign a fifteen month lease which begins June 1 and ends August 30. The purpose of such a lease, as he explained, was to place the burden for renting the apartment at the end of 12 months on the present occupants, who only wanted it for a year, anyway. This is clever because it shifts the expense of advertising and showing the apartment to the students, and guarantees that they will employ a modicum of salesmanship, if not a bit of deceit, in their desire to escape. Landlords get away with murder because as the front-page story reveals, the demand for apartments in the area surrounding the Main Campus is so much greater than the supply. The increase in dormitory rents within the past two years has also stepped up the demand for apartments. The competition leaves students, who are now busy getting ready for finals, little choice in deciding where to live. Students often take the blame for the miserable conditions of their apartments. We know of one landlord whose houses are a shameless display of peeled and cracking paint. His student renters sometimes offer to paint the outside of the house free of charge, if only the landlord will pay for the paint. But because he does not live in the neighborhood, and because he does not respect the Buffalo homeowners' struggle to keep up the appearance of their streets, he will not pay for paint. The landlord knows that eventually, the focus of the University will shift to the Amherst Campus, and, although there is virtually no affordable off-campus housing there, he anticipates a decline in the demand for his sorry houses. They are old, and not really worthy of the kind of investment it would take to make them anything other than rat traps. In September, The Spectrum reported the findings of a federally funded survey of housing (not exclusively student) in the University Heights Area, which found an everage of eight New York State Housing Code violations per dwelling. Even nightmare findings like these, however, overlook a myriad of other, unrecordable abominations: electrical wiring which requires thirty or forty fuse changes a year; a running toilet; ice build-up on the inside of window panes, unventilated bathrooms. There is no easy solution. We suggest for now that the Off-Campus Housing Office and the University's Division of Student Affairs join forces in a follow-up study of area housing violations, and that these findings be turned over to local legislators. Until then, you can turn to Group Legal Services and the Off-Campus Housing Office. Raise the ceiling. The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. 77 The methods of Chug Israel Editor’s note: The following letter was submitted several weeks ago. To the Editor. I was sorry that the “Chug Israel” people, in their answer of March 16 to my previous letter to Spectrum, have not referred to the essence of my accusation, namely: that they have demagogically used anti-Semitic themes in their ads, and that their slogans are designed to encourage the formation of a ghetto mentality among American Jews. What seems to be implied by this silence is that “Chug Israel” acknowledges the accusation without scruples. On the other end, I am glad of the opportunity given to me by “Chug Israel” to be more specific in my information about this new (yes, one more) Zionist center of activity. Reading their answer, I could not help smiling in view of the rapid cosmetic metamorphosis of “Chug Israel.” Its creation was publicized'by large ads, and officially sponsored by both the Israel Information Center and the American Zionist Youth Foundation. We are now told that “Chug Israel” has absolutely no connection with any group whatsoever. It was formed by four students.” Let these words speak for their authors and stand as a measure of their reliability. As to the official Israeli Committee of which “Chug Israel” has failed to find trace “after intensive investigation on our part:” The existence and composition of that committee, set up to coordinate the propaganda efforts of Israeli students with the Israeli consulates, have been publicized in the Israeli press in February. Specifically, I have quoted the names and respective roles of its members from a report in Ha’arets (the largest Israeli morning paper) of February the 8th, written by Mr. Shlomo Shamir, the paper’s correspondent in NYC. The committee had consulted 50 persons by early February, and I doubt that Buffalo has not been represented in this long list. The ongoing campaign in the American campuses is, unfortunately, characterized by methods that the academic community cannot, and should not accept. The use of racist and arrogant nationalistic slogans is the first. However, of more severe practical implications are the methods of tenor employed against dissidents. A visiting Israeli professor at the UB was recently harassed over the telephone by obscene curses in Hebrew during four days and nights; his sin: he had mentioned, in a letter to Spectrum, his concern for the fate of more than a million Palestinians who are living under occupation for ten years already. Another Israeli professor, visiting the Cornell University, had his private mail opened and xeroxed by Israeli students; the content was sent to Ma’ariv, the most right-wing Israeli paper, and published there in a distorted manner. 1 have sufficient evidence to believe that these activities, of which I have mentioned only two recent examples from WNY, are encouraged and supervised by the Shin Bet (Israeli CIA) and its sub-agencies. Actually, a militant of “Chug Israel” itself is a fake student, being, after many years of “studies” in various universities, only a part-time freshman. The main issue is, of course, not the existence of “Chug Israel” or its links with this or that Israeli official, but the agressive, immoral and sometimes illegal methods employed by it and by the establishment to which it belongs. In the long run, I am sure, their doings will turn out to be an injury to the Israeli people itself. Raphael Shapiro The Lev issue To the Editor: Are 2,000 valid signatures representative of the student population? It was fewer students than this that put Dennis Delia in office. Does Steve Schwartz think that 2,000 people would sign a petition just so the petitioner would leave them alone? He should know from his own election campaign that if someone does not want to listen to you on this campus, they will walk away more often than not. It has also been observed that on at least one occasion a student handed Michael Levinson a full sheet of petitions obtained by her own labor (or was this coercion, too, Schwartz?). The issue here is whether or not our rights as students under the S.A. Constitution are being protected by our elected representatives. Can Dennis Delia deny a petition to remove him from office as weil? If the referendum vote is not held, we support the idea of a challenge in the State Supreme Court. Hopefully, with a student government run for course credit instead of for dollars, a truly collective and representative student government can develop at SUNYAB that will involve more students in high level decisions, instead of forcing them to rely on the likes of Delia, Schwartz, and Rhona Martin. Their statements in Friday’s Spectrum malign the intelligence of the entire student body by implying that people were intimidated by Lev into signing a petition that they neither read nor understood, and that they signed merely to escape Lev’s enthusiasm.

We recognize the right to petition concurrent with the right of free information that information which is — unfettered lies and fraud. The purpose of this, piece is to answer Mr. Levinson’s allegation and Student Association’s course of action. There has been a fair amount of propaganda in the press lately over Lev’s proposal. He has charged us with everything from “disrupting a meeting of six student governments” to “intransience.” of U.B. where no course exists for it this fall, there be one this fall! nor can Questionable motives? Does Mr. Levinson’s proposal insure the right to a representative form of government, legal distribution of funds, system of funding organizations? All these would be left up to Lev. He is demanding the power to personally create this new student government, establishing its rules, regulations and structure. Let the courts decide before we take this step. We do not want any surprises later. Complaints have been handed in that Lev would say anything necessary to sway students to sign his petition. Needless to say, this alone would demand an investigation by the SWJ. Above and beyond these important questions, I have to question the motives of Mr. Levinson democratic Who controls Lev’s SA? Let us consider a few important facts. The most himself.

Mr. Levinson’s document provides none of these. fact, not misleading rhetoric or innuendo. I trust in Instead it moves student government under the your common sense and ability to distinguish reality jurisdiction of Division of Undergraduate Education from fantasy in understanding this situation. Guest Opinion by Jeff Lessoff stupidity and This is in reply to the incredible statements made by Michael Levinson in The Spectrum on April 20, 1977. As of this date, I am not aware of the charges being leveled against me as Vice President to Sub Board I. 1 know that I have disagreed with “Lev” on numerous occasions and was then threatened with impeachment by him if I didn’t help him. I told Mr. Levinson to “try it” because I was not going to be dictated to, by him or any other non-student. I felt then and still do that his referendum is invalid for many reasons. Among them is that I will not surrender the student government to the administration or to Lev. The S.A. lawyer has stated emphatically that the referendum in his opinion does not comply with mandatory student fee guidelines. Yet all in all this is only my opinion. The duty of the V.P. to Sub Board is to be a liaison from S.A. “to-Strb-Board. The Vice President to Sub Board has no official say as to whether or not a referendum shall be held. I have stated my views on this subject to other S.A. officials. A referendum will be held if the Student-wide judiciary feels that it is valid. 1 do take Mr. Levinson’s statement about my intransience very lightly, considering the source. I am at least as intelligent as this 35-year-old former fruit vendor! As for intransience I have certainly noticed Mr, Levinson’s transient personality. He seems to get very irate and almost loses control of himself if you don’t agree with him. There have been times when I’ve felt like slapping him to bring him out of his tantrum but 1 thought better of it. There is one area where Lev is an intransient and determined as anyone can be. Mr. Levinson will not rest until he is control of S.A. and possibly Sub Board. Lev has three motives for his coup of the S.A. government; 1) to make a lot of money from S.A.; 2) to read his book of poems in front of the student body; 3) to get revenge for all the years of frustration in U.B. student politics. You must remember 2 years ago when Mr. Levinson lost his bid for the S.A. presidency. The one thing I ask is that Mr. Levinson leave student politics and student fees to students. This seems only logical. We all know of the problems in S.A. But we students are competent to handle the situation. This is what students fought for in the 60’s. What I see now is a 60’s radical lost in the 70’s. l.essoff is Vice President for Sub Board I, Inc. Monday, 25 April 1977 The Spectrum Page seven . . �4 Summa IELI program Lockport Expwy. approved for funding Soviet visitors to study here visits with American families. The Buffalo World Hospitality Society is organizing the houseguest About 37 English from the Soviet Union coming to Buffalo this take part in a special teachers will be June to summer training program, Stephen C. Dunnett, director; of the. State University at Buffalo Intensive English Language Institute (IELI) has announced. Dunnett said the visiting (all scholars teachers at universities in Soviet Republics) will spend eight weeks at the language SUNYAB institute, primarily to learn American methods of teaching English as a second language. The Soviets will also attend seminars and tutorials given by faculty members of various University departments. They will be treated as visiting faculty and on occasion engage in practice teaching exercises before foreign students enrolled in other IELI summer programs. The director reported that arrangements were being made for the teachers to stay in dormitory accommodations near the IELI in headquarters the Ellicott Complex on the Amherst campus, ' program. Dunnett said he had received word that the Soviets were particularly interested in the use of language laboratories and audio-visual equipment in English instruction, and that they also want to learn about the linguistic differences between American and British language use. Although the Soviets will be involved principally with the IELI, they will also attend courses and seminars led by members of the linguistics, communication, departments. and education Lectures on American studies will be presented by members of ' English, geography, history, management, music, political sociology science and departments. The option of taking regular summer session courses will be open to the scholars as well. The Niagara Frontier Transportation Committee reinstated the Lockport Expressway to its regional transportation program. The project is now eligible for funding by the federal government. The seven-member committee chaired by New York State Transportation Commissioner Raymond Schuler went against the recommendations of its own Planning Committee and the views of at least six responsible spokesmen who appeared to oppose the planned roadway. The Lockport Expressway is designed to help alleviate the traffic congestion in the vicinity of this University’s Amherst Campus. In spite of the reinstatement of the project, Schuler promised that the remedial work on Millersport Highway would proceed at the same time. In the words of the commissioner, “both projects are necessary.” Schuler, responding to concerns about State forecasts of a decrease in the population base that will support the area, pledged to discuss the issue at a ■ meeting of the State Economic Development Board. The population drop has been repeatedly raised and reflects the strong concern of regional planners over predictions showing the loss of 30,000 from the area by the turn of the century. Amherst Town Supervisor made a plea for the roadway project, and at the same time asked that the “city-suburban” differences be set aside in the interests of a regional transport system. Buffalo Major Stanley Makowski endorsed the plan despite concern by some that too much money was being diverted out of the city. j State Department approval Dunnett noted that the visit is part of an exchange program funded by the State Department under an agreement with the Soviet Ministry of Higher and Specialized Education. It is administered by the International Research and Exchanges Board, a New York City-based organization whose activities are sponsored by the American Council of Learned Societies and the Social Science Research Council. The program began in 1963 and in past years it has been held at U.C.L.A., Georgetown, Cornell and the University of Michigan. The Intensive English Language Institute will receive about $70,000 for faculty and other associated expenses with the summer program. Dunnett said this was the first contract awarded to a unit of the State University of New York to train Soviet scholars. He said 31 other universities competed for the contract this year. Dunnett expects the Soviet English teachers to arrive at the Buffalo International Airport on June 28. He estimates that 300 others from foreign nations will be taking intensive language training here this summer. ‘Homestays’ A series of trips to Western New York area tourist attractions would be scheduled, Dunnett said, and the Soviet scholars will have opportunities to attend cultural events and participate in campus activities. • I y | Who’s bringing JESSE COLIN YOUNG 1 to Buffalo VEGETARIAN NATURAL FOOD COOKING CLASSES For the 11th Consecutive Year, Electrolux is offering summer, part-time full-time employment to college students.

The Senate also approved a motion by those who felt the referendum should be held to have the Student Wide Judiciary report its findings in a week. Delia, in seeking the Senate’s support, said the student government for course credit petition was signed by many people who didn’t know what they were approving. Although the Colleges Curriculum Committee has instated an experimental summer seminar on student governmnet, Delia said that the class could never carry out the business of a government and that it has not been approved for the fall and may be terminated at any time. “We must draw lines on what is put up to vote. I claim this referendum cannot be affected,” Delia told the Senate. Levinson, a long-time campus figure who is also known as Lev, had written in a Guest Opinion in Wednesday’s issue of The Spectrum that Delia’s challenge to the referendum was in violation of the SA Constitution. The constitution holds that any valid petition signed by Petition to recall SA sources said that Levinson apparently had enough valid signatures. Levinson, who was not present at the Senate meeting in Haas Lounge, said later that he would circulate a petition to recall Delia and Vice President for Sub Board Jeffrey Lessoff, for breaking “the spirit and letter” of the Constitution by not holding the referendum. Before passing the motion to support the challenge by a vote of 16-8, a lively 45-minute debate occurred over the legality of the petition and the challenge. “I think since the signatures were recognized, we have to hold the referendum,” one Senator offered. Senator Rhona Martin, in supporting the challenge to the petition, said she had seen people sign the petition, without reading it. Group Legal Services Director David Brownstein said that although the petition did not provide an apparatus for distributing the $900,000 activity fee and continuing the services the fee supports, he felt the challenge was wrong. “1 still feel it should be put up for referendum. I signed it. And I guarantee [if (he vote is not held] that students will challenge it in STate Supreme Court,” he explained. Former SA President Steve Schwartz said that students had signed the petition so that Lev would leave them alone. He also said that Lev had told students the summer seminar in student government was approved before it actually was. Delia said Levinson had agreed to have Acting Undergraduate Dean Walter Kunz send a letter to him upon the course’s approval, but that he never did. Levinson now says that having a letter written was just another obstruction to the referendum. Kunz could not be reached for comment by press time. Sandy Lee, a Senator who favored holding the referendum, said the number of signatures shows that people see a problem in SA that should be discussed. Former Sub Board Chairman Jon Roller, arguing for the referendum, said it was not proper for the Senate to debate the merits of a valid petition. The Senate also unanimously passed a resolution urging that legal action be launched against Food Service for its decision to charge students extra for the added week of contract service made necessary by the winter shut-down.

Staff Writer Noncommerical literary magazines have published some of the most innovative writing in the United States.

Several writers and editors from Buffalo and the surrounding area participated in this all-day event, which was partially sponsored by the English Department. The first event Saturday afternoon was a membership meeting and a workshop on magazine distribution. Zavrian, Michael Andre, Editor of Unmuzzled Ox, Beverly Vander Kooy, of the University’s poetry collection, and Ahmos Zu-Bolton, Director of Energy Black South Distributors, talked to a crowd of 65 about their careers and the problem of distributing little magazines. Zavrian described CCLM’s Distribution Project in terms of bookstore and library promotion, subscription agency, exhibits and workshops. The panel of four uniformly agreed that distribution was the key to the survival of the small presses. Until recently, distribution has confused and discouraged most little magazine and their natural Dead Father and Amateurs’, he is a audiences.

This led to a more pre-eminent discussion of whether the writer himself should be concerned with the commerciality of his writing or Its esthetic cohesiveness, — the group. A student at this University said at one point during the discussion, “I don’t see what the big deal is. Why don’t you god damn write what you want to write and let the reader choose for himself what he wants to read.” The discussion ended rather abruptly, with much controversy still in the air. In his closing remarks, Fiedler said, “Its time to there are still a lot of stop now but its always a good questions, sign to stop when there are still questions to be asked.” The final event of the day was a group reading with Buffalo area writers and others at the Tralfamadore Cafe. Several writers — read a sampling of their work to informal corwd of approximately 60 people. Readers included Neil Baldwin, Jane an Creighton, Allen Delduch, Carl Dennis, Thomas Horan, Susan Jordon, Judith Kerman, David Lunde and Dennis Maloney. “There are so many little magazines around today that it is pathetic,” claimed Ahmos Zu-Bolton. They provide a forum for new writers to present their work, and in this sense they tend to be avant garde. The importanceof little magazines lies in the fact that they contain newly-created literature of relatively unknown writers. According to Ishmael Reed, ‘They are less conventional they are and more innovative the voice of tomorrow.” ' — Ill by Paulette Buraczenski Spectrum Staff Writer All organizations under the auspices of the Student Association (SA) will be subject to a five percent budget cut, due to a shortage of revenues received by SA. These revenues, derived from mandatory student fees, were grossly over-estimated last year, resulting in a shortage in this year’s budget. The reason for the cut is two-fold. Daytime undergraduate enrollment was down by 5.8 percent last semester, which reduced the amount of money received in activity fee payments. Additionally, the number of students requesting fee waivers was underestimated by 250. Subsequently, SA received $16,000 less than it had anticipated. Another reason for the budget cuts was the payment of debts from previous years. SA Treasurer Neil Seiden cited the example of Panic Theatre, which has accumulated about $1600 in debts. Another problem source is the Record Coop. SA allocated $20,000 to the Coop in the form of a loan, and only a little over $1000 has been repaid. Depending on how the records are interpretea, a 3 to 16 percent deficit exists. However, Seiden chose to cut all clubs by five percent, explaining that a three percent cut would not alleviate the situation, and a 16 percent cut would cripple many organizations. Problems Lunchtime Forum Norton Hall Division and Perplexing Prestidigitations present: A Magic Show with MARTINE, The Nearly Great "Fantastic Fantasies for people not too Sharp" TODAY Budget cuts in store for SA organizations ™ FRIDAY April 22 12 noon 231 Norton • P ■ Bring your lunch, coffee, cider & doughnuts Free! !! Implementation of a five oercent, all-around budget cut “is the only fair thing to do,” Seiden said. The cuts will minimize the effect of last year’s overbudgeting on next year’s students. “It would be unfair to have next year’s students pay for this year’s activities,” Seiden declared, adding, “The effect of the budget cuts will not be known until the end of the fiscal year on August 31 However, this solution will create its own problems. Some clubs and organizations have already spent most of their money, making it impossible to absorb the five percent reductions. In all cases, the individual clubs budget will return the remainder of their resources to SA. “In actuality,” said Seiden, “we are probably cutting less than 5 percent,” taking into account those organizations that cannot pay the five percent cut. The budget cuts will, in effect, penalize those organizations that have saved money since those organizations who spent the greatest part of their budget allocations will not be obliged to pay the full five percent. To alleviate the problems caused by the budget reductions, Seiden pointed out that next year SA will try to return as much money as possible to the organization? on a pro rata basis. In pther words, a percentage of the money cut from each club’s budget will be restored on the condition that SA’s resource problems are resolved. ‘Let things ride' c- Another solution to this problem is also being explored, SA can credit the amount due to the club’s budget for next year. However, Seiden feels that this is not necessary. “The differences are not substantial,” he said, adding he preferred to “let things ride.” “All governments are having problems getting their revenues,” Seiden said, adding that this type of action will be taken in other University budgets. Seiden claimed that Sub Board will suffer a loss of about $15,000, which will affect other organizations like LTniversity Union Activity Board (UUAB), Health Care Divisions, and the Publications Division, to name a few. r— *Hear 0 Israel** For gems from the ATTENTION BOY SCOUTS And Any Other GroupLooking for Jewish Bible Phone 875-4265 HELP • Construction of...

A 'Just so much gas' When asked why NFG did not refund the $10 per customer requested by NYPIRG, Gerald C.

NFG’s fiscal yey runs from October 1 thru September 30, and the company has a set amount of fuel which must least them the entire year. “We have just so much gas at the start of the year,” he said. “If we sell a lot in the first quarter, it WRNTED From the team that made ‘Z - signatures.

However, Miller anticipates that when the fiscal year expires at the end of September, 1977 will on the whole be a worse year than 1976. “Sales dropped seven billion cubic feet in the second quarter, January 1 thru March 31, from the same period in 1976,” said Miller. Net profit same How could there be such a decrease in fuel usage at a time when Buffalo was experiencing some of the most severe weather in its history? Miller explained that official curtailment caused many factories, schools, etc. to lower their temperatures or close during those three months. “A large conservation effort by the public also cut back on sales,” he continued. “Our net profit at the end of tfie year is the same whether we sell it all at one time or spread it out over the entire year,” he said. If this is true, how could other utility companies afford to give rebates? “The circumstances in Rochester are totally different,” said Miller. NFG contracts for its fuel so that it has only a limited sup-ply for each year. Rochester has an unlimited amount of gas; therefore just because they sold a lot at the beginning of the year edoes not mean that they have to cut back fpr the rest of the year.

Gilbert and Wendy Krasnoff The controversial jury trial of Johnson, a black Kenneth Buffalonian accused of rape, concluded late Wednesday with acquital on first counts of rape, robbery and resisting arrest, and an evenly split hung jury on second counts of rape and robbery, as well as of sodomy. Johnson is currently free on $30,000 bail. The jury found that Johnson did not rape or rob Eillen Murphy on Thanksgiving Day, 1975, nor did he resist arrest the following December 3. The jury was unable to reach a decision regarding the sodomy, robbery and rape of Debbie Richards on November 29. Both rapes had been alleged by the prosecution to have been committed by the same man, since the assailants’ appearance and methods of attack were very similar. Possible dismissal, retrial Immediately following the verdict, prosecutor Albert T. Ranni declared that he was ready for a retrial. The defense announced its intentions,'“in the best interests of justice,” to make a motion that all remaining charges be dismissed. from the Representatives Committee to Clear Kertneth Johnson had mixed reactions. “This is only a partial victory,” said Melodi Shapiro, “Kenny is still free . . . not injustice continues.” Trial proceedings had begun in March with pretrial hearings and later the jury selection process. Jurors were selected from a county-wide pool of ninety, only three of whom were black. None of the prospective black jurors were seated as two were ruled out by the prosecutor and it was found that the third had known Johnson in high school. The final jury was all white, predominantly middle-aged and generally from professional and small business backgrounds. At one point during the trial, the defense moved that an entire new jury pool be selected, and cited statistics indicating that the number of potential black jurors should have been almost three times higher to proportionately represent Erie County’s black population. ' Prosecution’s case Johnson’s trial began April 3 with the presentation of the prosecutor’s case by Assistant District Attorney Albert T. Ranni. The two major points in his the presentation concerned victims’ identification of their VEGETARIAN NATURAL FOOD COOKING CLASSES conducted by CHERYL SCHIPANI of Greenfield St. Restaurant Begin May 12th DIET COOKING CLASSES Begin April 29th th.Q lanhandler « call 835-4006 . to enroll rapists, and the exact time the attacks occurred. According to Eilleen Murphy, the first rape victim to testify, she was accosted on the corner of and Richmond on Bryant 1975, at Thanksgiving Day, approximately 8:15 p.m. She was forced at gunpoint into her car, and told to drive to the Sears parking ramp on Main Street, where she was robbed and raped by her assailant. The entire incident took 50 minutes. Johnson maintains he had dinner at his Thanksgiving parents’ house until 8:00 or 8:15 when he left with his girlfriend and went to their own apartment on the East Side. At about 8:30, he woke a neighbor to watch a football game. Seven witnesses, both relatives and friends, verified the story. The prosecution in summation asserted that all the to lie or witnesses had distort the truth, and were unreliable. The jury, however, their accepted testimony, acquitting Johnson on this count. Debbie Richards, the second victim to identify Johnson as her rapist, was accosted at about 11:45 a.m. in the elevator of Buffalo General Hospital/not far from Johnson’s place of work, the Mental Health Community Center. She felt later that in fact the time was closer to 11:30. Richards then testified that her attacker produced a gun and forced her to go to the 6th floor of the hospital where she was robbed and raped. The assault took about ten minutes, according to the victim. Defense witnesses declared that Johnson was still at work from about 11:30 to 11:40, wearing different clothes than those of the No witness could rapist. locate Johnson specifically immediately prior to 11:30. One witness testified that at about 11:45 she met Johnson for lunch, though other witnesses felt it may have been later. ‘ Sketch dissimilar Both witnesses, at the time of the attack, had said that Johnson resembled closely the composite sketch of a light skinned black man printed in the newspaper December 2 as did the security guard at the Mental Health Center w'ho originally notified the police that Johnson could be the rapist. Johnson, however, is dark skinned. In other discrepancies pointed out by Joseph Birmingham, the defense lawyer, Johnson was noted to have no upper front teeth, a fact not mentioned by the victims until the trial. Johnson is also nearsighted without his glasses, best able to read at close range. But Debbie related that her attacker had demanded her driver’s license, and had squinted to read it up close. Most telling was the attacker’s use of his left hand to hold his gun. Johnson is right handed. Also to the damaging prosecutor’s case were the-allegedcircumstances improper surrounding the lineup wherein Johnson was identified by the rape victims. Of the five men in a ’age four The Spectrum Fri iday, 22 April 1977 . . . lineup photograph shown at the trial, Johnson is the only man with light colored clothing. Also, Johnson’s face had a noticeable cut over one eye, sustained during his arrest. Despite testimony to the contrary by Eileen, the prosecutor Ranni, asserted that the cust was not visible to the rape victims, and that the color of Johnson’s clothing in this case did not set Johnson apart. • Series of rapes relevant but most A unexplored aspect to the charges against Johnson regards several other rapes that occurred at the same period as those Johnson is charged with. In the time around Thanksgiving through December 5, 1975, five and possibly six rapes were reported, including the two%Johnson is presently charged with committing. All were by a man of similar description, and operating in a similar manner. The other victims did not identify Johnson as their attacker, but no further arrests have been made. The defense alleges that a sixth rape, with an identical modus operandi occurred after Johnson had been arrested and jailed. If substantiated, the claim would add support to Johnson’s plea of innocence. Additionally, a third rape victim, who had participated in the drawing of the composite sketch so widely publicized in Buffalo, was willing to testify that Johnson was not her attacker, although he did resemble the sketch. Judge Mikoll denied the motion requesting that she be allowed to appear, explaining that she could have been raped by someone else, and her testimony therefore had no bearing on the case. Public support A committee to clear Kenneth Johnson has publicized the case since the arrest, and is continuing its appeal for active public support. The Committee alleges that Johnson is the victim of a racist frameup, made necessary by a business community desperate to find the rapist that was turning away sales trade just as the crucial Christmas season was beginning. The Committee also states that complete acquittal would so . embarrass the Buffalo Police, force and the prosecutor’s office, that the trial continues despite evidence that overwhelming innocent, Johnson is and accompanying defense motions that charges be dropped. Melodi Shapiro, a member of the defense committee declares that, “It is a fact that these women have been raped, but, for various reasons, the wrong man has been arrested. Defense evidence undeniably points to Ken’s while innocence, the prosecutor’s case is based only on the discrediting and defaming of defense witnesses. It should be remembered that the defense has not, as is traditional in many rape cases, attempted tp deny that the -ropes occurred,--nor-to put the victims on trial in examining their morals and sexual views.” The Committee asserts that rape laws have been historically used to intimidate and jail black men, often putting them to death, while white men receive lower sentences set free, or are especially when the victim’s “morals” or the identity of the rapist is put into doubt. The Committee feels existing rape laws are completely inadequate to protect women from rape, leaving the victimized little recourse but silence. Ranni declined to comment on the views of the Committee, but said during his summation that “this is not-a racial issue, this is the trial of a violent crime.” Defense lawyer Bermingham stated that its motion to drop charges would take two weeks to a month to be ruled on. The Committee plans to redouble their efforts and are calling for more volunteers and financial aid. Shapiro declared that funds, especially in the likely case of a retrial, are very desperately needed. Checks may be sent to P.O. Box 75, Station J, Buffalo, N.Y. 14208.

Gym construction may begin with new funds Delayed construction of the Amherst Gym has helped to maintain the inadequate condition of athletic facilities at this University. No plans have been made to rennovate or add new equipment to Clark Gym. Reallocation of necessary funds will enable this University to start the construction on a physical education complex at once. Many feel the athletic facilities at this University are extremely underdeveloped. Preventing adequate physical education are the small ■class size and the limited amount of instructors available. Presently there are approximately 16 full-time instructors in the physical education department. These 16 instructors are responsible for over 10,000 full time day students. The small classes make it difficult for students to complete their physical education requirement for graduation (currently 2 credit hours). Busy building The only gym on campus, Clark Hall, houses the University’s 15 athletic teams and classes for majors and non-majors. Facilities for individual recreation are also located in Clark Hall. Director of Women’s-Athletics Betty Dimmick considers the lack of space to be the greatest obstacle which has cuased the curtailment of students’ the greatest obstacle whfch has caused the curtailment of students’ Babble will become an even less adequate physical education facility. Presently, the facilities provided by the Bubble are scarce, offering only the barest of necessities. Coordinator of Men’s Intercollegiate Athletics Edwin Muto who opposed the construction of the Bubble from the very beginning claimed the structure “was being used only as a pacifier. The Ketter administration has put athletics secondary to academics.” He also feels student involvement in this matter would be extremely helpful aiding the construction effort. Plans for a new complex on Amherst Campus exist and wait for the beginning of construction. The layout of the proposed new complex on Amherst is composed of two major sections, named Phase I and Phase II, Phase I is a field house and Phase II includes a swimming pool, handball and racketball courts and many smaller rooms for the instructors. Locker rooms will be placed between the two main parts. The plans for the new complex were approved by Albany administrators eight years ago. The funding cutback, however, delayed the beginning of the construction until now. On the new campusenough space for such an enormous project would be available while on Main Street Campus space is so restricted that it is impossible to even enlarge Clark Hall. The present facilities now are not big enough for the-number of students who would like to use them, and long waiting times for basketball or tennis courts are the result. �‘The Measures Taken’ does justice to Brecht’s viewpoint ’ ' Avoid generally Arts Editor zealots; they humorless.

It’s equally difficult for such a work to avoid being naive and oversimplified. These rules of thumb make Bertolt Brecht’s The Measures Taken, an exemplary production. The current UB Theatre Department’s version, under Saul Elkin’s direction, is especially satisfying. Both play and presentation avoid these pitfalls, doing full justice to an exceptionally provocative and perceptive viewpoint.

Mitchell Bogard’s set is dominated by a mammoth red “The Measures Taken” banner, flanked by icons photos of Brecht’s appearance before the House Un-American Activities Committee in 1947, where he testified about this play; his testimony is the first thing we hear. The form of Measures is an explanation by four Russian Communist agitators to their comrades the “Control Chorus” of their murder of a Young Comrade. The four offer to illustrate the events leading up to it but totally neutrally: “We shall repeat what was said.” The Young Comrade, played at different times by each of the four Agitators, is earnest: “My heart beats for the Revolution.” But her concern is for practicalities machines, food, seed to plant, all of which her village needs while her visitors’ aim is solely to enlist her aid in of spreading “the ABC Communism.” Their propagandizing mission to China is shown in episodes of striking imagery: the “blotting out” of the Agitators’ identities by their superior; rice barge coolies straining like Sisphus ate endless, killing toil; merchants at a hedonist Last Supper, who sing of the coolies they employ in “The Song of the Merchandise.” And always, the Young Comrade’s concern for human needs removes the mask with which she was “blotted out” and reveals her, thus making her ineffective. — — — — devoured her We returned to our work. But the picture Brecht draws is hardly as smoothly logical. His Party is ostensibly out to improve the lot of the downtrodden, but its main concern is slavish adherence to dogma and procedure. The rules it’s drawn up blind it to the real state of the game: the Control Chorus sings, “Do not see with your own eyes; the Party has a thousand eyes.” But that Chorus, in an effective touch, all wear dark glasses. They discuss events with the smugness of hindsight, finding reasons for the Comrade’s failures in Party doctrine; all the discussions end with “We agree to that.” The tone of the play, of the Agitators and Chorus, of the entire Weltschmerz is as cold and , relentless as a glacier. What it issues most strongly is a warning of the dangers of offering unswerving alliance to anyone or anything: a theory, a group, yourself. You may be called upon to confirm it and “measures” may be taken. Elkin’s productions have always been notable for their use of a cast as a sympathetic ensemble, and this is no exception. Their quality is uneven, but generally high; to single out one would be to slight all. Brecht’s spare, chiseled verse comes across with its full impact, in both speech and singing; musical director Ray Leslee and choral director Lucia Beck are responsible for the latter. The Measures Taken continues tonight thru Sunday at 8 p.m. in the Pfeifer Courtyard Theatre.

Our history is one never-ending weh of humiliation, oppression and pogrom. Across the lives of our grandparents the infamous Beilis trial was smeared like a black thundercloud. Across the days of our fathers was the awful nightmare of the notorious arrests of the so-called “Doctors’ Plot.” And now in our times there has been upon us the preparations for a new trial, the trial of Jewish “spies,” recalling the notorious trial of the so-called “spy and traitor” Greetings Dreyfus. During the last few months, we have seen an escalation in the growing stream of harassments against Jews: beatings in the woods outside Moscow, mass arrests for 15 days, the suppression of the planned symposium on Jewish culture, the renewal of the threat of trial against the editors of the magazine Jews in the USSR, intimidation in all provincial towns, the trial and sentence to three years of Amner Zavurov in Uzbekistan, the arrest of Dr. Yosef Begun in Moscow, the case in preparation against Dr. Naum Salansky in Vilnius, and now the monstrous accusations in the columns of the newspaper Izvestia. On the surface, only a small part of the rupting volcano can yet be seen. All the rest is inside, hidden, concealed from view. What is being cooked up down there in the depths is as yet unknown to us, but we shall no doubt very soon feel it, and experience the full effects of the depth of the anti-Jewish prejudice being stirred up to vomit forth from the mouth of the volcano. Today, it is an accusation of spying and treason in the newspaper. From there, it is not far to a dreadful trial. Already, all around us, we can hear the echos and murmurs of this anti-Jewish feeling in the streets, the shops, the buses, the metro, the schools where our children are pupils. Yesterday, it was only the refuseniks under threat. Today, it is every Jew in the Soviet Union who is a potential victim for sacrifice. At this serious and dangerous moment in our lives we want you to know that no treachery, threat, slander or libel can intimidate us. We shall continue With the fight for our freedom because we know that you are with us. We shall do everything in our power to restore and maintain the honor and dignity of our The Jewish People live! people.

But Saturday's Especially when you don't do it half as well as your evening concert was probably the best single folk straightforward bluegrass? (Then again, "progressive concert I've seen in Buffalo, without a single sour bluegrass" is anything that Flatt and Scruggs or Bill note to spoil the harmony. Monroe never recorded.) "Love Is A Rose," though, sounded lovely with the rock taken out of it, and "Lady Be Good" sounded downright devilish when The legendary Tom Paxton, who's been writing fine songs for some fifteen years without running out of things to — say or new ways to say them, certainly qualifies as a legend. He hasn't lost his surgeon's skill for finding the pulse of a people's heart, nor his surgeon's scalpel for slicing the absurd to ribbons. (Paxton's comment on Gary Gilmore's stardom: a cuttingly joyous ditty called "Bring Back The Chair.") His recasting of the story of crippled veteran Ron Kovic ("Born On The Fourth Of July") showed that topical songs can still be powerful without being mawkish. But the moment was when the generation that was brought up on his "lesson too late for the learning" joined in on "The Last Thing On My Mind," with the reverence due the creator of a perfect song. But legends must die, sadly. There were , Jack Elliott's set when he was Ramblin' Jack the First and Only, the Brooklyn Okie whose lazy drawl meandered through a lot of the delights and sadnesses of life.

Which end of a rainbow is the prettiest? The one you haven't seen before, I suppose so here's to the musicians who came unknown and left so many friends behind. To be a fine fiddler, hammered dulcimer player (what is the term dulcimerist? dulcian? dulciamaniac?), banjoist, guitarist, or old-timey singer that's admirable. To be all of them, as John McCutcheon is, boggles the mind, slackens the jaw, and sets everyone shouting a unison "WAH-HOO!" He fiddled like he'd invented rosin; his dulcimer went from hard-driving reels tO' shimmering Irish ... — — —continued from • page Sheas Buffalo 7— • Again we saw music pass from old to young when John McCutcheon backed her on guitar. ("If you're wondering what I'm doing with my foot," Janette confided, "I'm telling Jonn to hush. It's the same signal Brother Joe and I had.") "You can't really cover 'Music of the British Isles' in an* hour . it's absurd." Despite, that comment by Robin Morton of the Boys of the . . Lough at Saturday afternoon's British Isles Workshop, the Boys, along with Britons John Roberts and Tony Barrand, came close to doing so in their brief sets, that night. The Boys served up what they're famous for: the excitement of Irish, Scottish, and Shetland dance music; the beauty of the songs of the Isles (Cathal McConnel's version of "The Red-Haired-Man's Wife" was breathtaking), and, to finish with the proverbial bang, their tour de force recreation of the hunt, "The Hound and the Hare" (All of which no one does better, on either side of the ocean.) Before Tony and John were through, they'd patiently taught English Morris dancing to a workshop full of neophytes, delved into the history of whaling and sailing, sung about Cumberton Parish, (which sold the church Bible to buy a pet bear), did some clogging themselves, and generally gave everyone a fair share of what the British call "Good crack." captivates audience with totally spectacular concert by Stephen Brieff Spectrum Music Staff Last Saturday, April 16, at the Shea's Buffalo Theatre, Janis lan came as close to perfection as a performer can get, putting on a totally spectacular concert. Opening with "When The Party's Ovfer" from her Between the Lines album, she proceeded to completely captivate her audience and hold them in a trancelike state for close to two hours of solid music. Her backup band was in their usual top form, providing the perfect complement for Ian's clear and powerful vocals. This band seems to have reached an artistic peak with Ian's latest album. Miracle Row, and in concert they more than proved their musical expertise. Barry Lazarowitz, to/ho's been Janis Ian's drummer for the last several years has really blossomed into one of rock's premier drummers. His uncanny ability to change in style from slow ballads to medium tempo numbers to rockers has added to the Janis Ian "sound" immeasurably. In concert his drumming was superior, making it look effortless, giving significant drive and inspiration to the group, and standing out on the up-tempo numbers. Recent material Dueling ballads ■l Janis lan There was a nice interchange, unplanned, when Margaret MacArthur, who sings to an audience as sweetly as she does to the Vermont hills of her home, contributed "Reynardine" to a ballad workshop. That evening, Tony and John sang their own version of the ballad. Margaret responded with "The Ballad of Robban's First Ride," Malvina Reynolds' song about a baby actually born in the back of John's car touche! Michael Cooney finally got his perfect tag from Barrand, who introduced him as "the one-man Pete Seeger." He recovered enough equilibrium to offer the surprise of the night "a song I've been looking for fbr years; T even bought the sheet music." The mysterious song: "Me and My Shadow." That's why we need a Michael Cooney, to remind us of the joys of music the rest of us have forgetten. And that lesson is never too late for the learning. If one hadn't known that Charlie Maguire's been a frequent visitor to Buffalo, it was evident when he did a shantey-ish song, with a chorus of "Oh, cold and misery" and then announced, "This is about trying to get a car started." But if you'd previously heard him sing his song about "a pint-size i.e. a midget cigar-smoking' truck-drivin' man" you'd surely have remembered the truck driver quality of his music. Neither is it easy to forget the ballads and the voice of Lisa Null, who's also been welcomed ofter hereabouts, or how well they blend with Bill Schutt's singing and guitar. — — Janis Ian chose to concentrate primarily on material from her latest album. Miracle Rovy and Between The Lines. Her rendition of "In The Winter," coming somewhat earlier in the show than expected, was breathtaking. Janis, playing piano dramaticaly, poured her heart out and cried: "In the winter. Extra blankets for the cold/fix the heater, getting old/ You are with her now, I know/ I'll' live alone forever/ Not together now." The Miracle Row numbers were much more complex and experimental in nature. In addition to the increased use of the rhythm section, with more focus on the bass and drumming, Ian sheds her acoustic guitar and impressively utilizes an electric guitar, adding another dimension to her repertoire. Her electric work, though not as loud as one would expect from a Led Zeppelin, was very smooth and rhythmic, and completely spontaneous. —continued on page 10 — — harp pieces; and he sang a marvelous, loony song that could've been written by Monty Python and The Skillet Lickers, where someone whose "mouth is full of tongue" watches a church burn up, saying "Holy Smoke!" Thanking the audience for singing with him, he told them "Pocahontas County would be proud of you;" it'd be equally proud of seeing him make everyone so happy. Pricilla Herdman moves her listeners in quieter, more profound ways. Her clear, strong voice is a rare thing in itself. But Pricilla sings with total honesty, caring more about the song than herself and that's what a song needs to change from a pretty piece of music to a true offering from one heart to another. She sings only what she means, and she means all she - — — Heroes Of course, any festival owes its success or failure ulitimately to the musici&ns, the audience,in this case also to the craftspeople who exhibited their work. But the heroes of the hour were the people of the UUAB Coffeehouse committee, who lifted barges, toted bales, and kept the keel even, along with the Music Committee folks who kept Clark Gym unmanageable instead of chaotic too many like the talented Don to name, never too many to be warmly thanked. As wise "Her's To The for the Coffeehouse chairperson Judy Castanza about a musicians' bar well, she made the festival happen; how can such a got up and played his great and joyour gift be repaid?

Tony Barrand's response: "I don't really play my nose I just pick a little.") And her singing of Alan Vogel's "The Band Played Waltzing Matilda" was one of the most moving statements of the sad waste of war I've ever heard. It was a privilege to hear her. — Family history Janette Carter is history: she's of the same family as A.P., Sara, and Mother Maybelle Carter, She sings with the the first family of country same sad, lonesome sound as Mother Maybelle, and it's artlessly beautiful in the same way. — Circles are a big folkie metaphor, from circles of friends to "Will The Circle Be Unbroken." Sunday, John McCutcheon was calling a square dance, with the Rye Whiskey Fiddlers making it impossible to stand still. John called, "All join hands, circle left" and I realized that we'd all been joining hands all weekend, performers, workers, and listeners . . . and what was left was a circle. And when the dance, the afternoon, and the festival were over, there was no caller, no perfbrrtfers'/fio audience just a bunch of friends on the Squire Hall lawn, in the waning light of Sunday afternoon, playing in a circle. —Bill Maraschiello Page eight .

(We had a hard time writing after being called The Village Idiots" by another Idiot of an anonymous nature who felt it necessary to use a fake name "M. Bork" in a letter to The Spectrum. It's not that we thought all of "Bork's" criticisms were wrong, many were valid, but we prefer to face our critics and present our side. We invite "Bork" to come up to the SA office to talk with us.) Actually we did get quite busy in the last few weeks and found it, impossible to write this column. So now we have several different things to comment on. - - COMMUTER DAY Commuter Day, an annual event around UB, is being held today, Fri., April 22. First on the agenda is another in the highly successful series of Commuter Breakfasts. As usual all beverages (coffee, tea, etc.) will be free and doughnuts will cost 10 cents. It will run from 8 a.m. to 12 noon in the Fillmore Room. At noon a magic show, El Martine, will be presented in Squire (Norton) 231. Free coffee, cider, and doughnuts will be served. This is being sponsored by Norton Hall Division (special thanks to Norton House Council Chairman Dave Shapiro well we couldn't work your name in on the posters so we put you in the column. Of course woros or praise from the Village Idiots may ruin your future and your reputation.) — Later on a Groucho Marx movie, Copacabana, will be in Gallery 219 on the second floor of Morton (near the Commuter Ride Board a little plug.) The movie features Groucho as a theatrical agent who makes a bizarre deal with his client. Carmen Miranda, to star as two persons in a nightclub act. The dancing Copa Girls" are featured in plush surroundings. The typically strange scenes, characteristic of Groucho, are here too. A must for the hard core Groucho fans. Commuter Day ends with a disco starting at 8;30 p.m. in the Fillmore Room. The usual disco favorites will be played and one of the local disc jockeys from WYSL will be there. There will also be reduced prices for beer and wine for the drinkers (like us). (At the time ot this writing we are not sure of prices but last time beer was 15 cents and it should be around that this time.) presented — REGISTRATION The semester is finally grinding to a halt but before your mind wanders to thoughts of Summer Vacation and final exams (lists of exams schedules will be posted around campus on Mon., April 25 according to rumors we've heard) there is still one dnnoying task REGISTRATION.

Nils Lofgren is a punk guitarist with distinction by Tim Switala Spectrum Music Staff There are punk guitarists and there are punk and then there is Nils Lofgren. The distinction is imperative. Lofgren's talents extend beyond those of the simplistic, reactionary rockers who have been perverted into "iconic punks" by a hype-movement known as "punk rock." Way guitarists beyond. If anyone, Lofgren is the archetypal punk guitarist; disciplined, energized and so complex that when it comes to possessing a capacity for rock n' ( roll, pure gutsy motivation of an audience, a Ramone couldn't touch him with a ten-foot Stratocaster. So, when Nils rolled into the Century Theatre Saturday evening as headliner of a triple bill (making it his third appearance in the Buffalo area in less than a year's time), the fans thirsting for pure rock and roll came out in full force to watch Nils dance. And tf|ey weren't disappointed. But first there were some farcical preliminaries on behalf of Harvey and Corky. This concert was named "The First Annual Rites of Spring San Francisco Dance Marathon" (whatever happened to "the series of low-budget concerts?") in honor of the original San Francisco dance marathons where three bands would perform in an evening of continuous, non-stop music. Well, there were three bands there Satuday along with twq typical twenty-minute breaks. Nothing new there. Or how about disco dancing in the Main Street lobby? And to top it all off was this really cool make-belieVe-Woodstock-rock-concert-announcer from Q-FM named Matt Ready who got me really, really psyched up and guaranteed me he was going to have "one mother fucker of a good time." Luckily, there were three good groups playing that night also. Well almost three. .. Journey's superb, sophisticated brand of "art rock" did not go unrecognized; not by the audience, who gave them repeated standing ovations, nor by Nils Lofgren, who was to follow. Homage to keith But was Nils to have the show lifted out from beneath him? Not on your life. With the personnel from the / Came To Dance album accompanying him. Nils broke into his standard tribute to idol Keith Richards, "Keith Don't Go." Sticking with the early material, Nils then followed with a Crazy Horse composition, "Beggar's Day," and the crowd was . — CUTBACKS Once again our not so great Governor is doing his best to destroy the State University system. His latest budget will mean more cuts in services, staff, and more delays in construction. It may also mean higher tuition which none of us want. Ln order to prevent this from happening SASU Delegates Clare Reardon, Jeff Winkler, and Alan Clifford will be starting a letter writing campaign directed at the State Legislature. So if in the next few weeks someone comes up to you in Norton and asks you to write a letter please cooperate. You will not be signing away your first born child, aiding a wierdo radical group, or for you anti-New York City Upstaters you will be comforted to know this is not a "Save New York City" Campaign. It is for the benefit of all students. If you are tired of paying higher tuition for a poorer quality of education then take the few minutes necessary to write your Senator and Assemblyman. BUS TOKENS Perhaps the most successful project the Commuter Council has been involved with this year has been the Bus Token Project. The Bus Token Project enables commuters who take the bus to school tokens for $3.25, a savings of 75 cents. to buy a packet of They have been sold through Norton Ticket Office and are usually sold out within two hours. The Commuter Council has asked for an increase in its allocation for tokens so the Project can be expanded next year. Hopefully the Finance Committee and Financial Assembly will approve the increase. COMMUTER BREAKFASTS Another success story (nothing like patting ourselves on the back) are the commuter breakfasts which are now into their third year. This year's breakfasts, which have been held in the Fillmore Room, have attracted so many people that food and beverages have run out by 10:30 for most of them. (The breakfasts are suppose to run until 12 noon.) As with the Bus Token Project, the Council has asked for an increase allocation to expand the breakfast program.We think their success justifies increasing funds. COME TO COMMUTER DAY, FRI., APRIL 22 in Squire (Norton) Hall. This column is paid for by mandatory student fees through Sub-Board I, Inc. Prodigal Sun Urban rock Kicking off the festivities for the evening was Steve Gibbons, curator of urban rock, who snaked across stage in tight, black leather and toppled microphone stands while posing the age-old questions, "Hey, what's happenin' on the street?" This group's set, centering around dual, high-speed guitar riffing and Gibbon's delivery of lyrics some in song, others in narration, conjured images of every group imaginable with the possible exception of the STeve Gibbons band. "One of the Boys" not only adopts the Mott song title and basic premise (punks in the streets of England), but also wins the award for the best "My Generation" sound-a-like as Gibbons stutters and sputters the rowdy's philosophy. "A Little Spark of Love" blatantly steals the opening hook from Skynyrd's "Freebird." He apparently thinks we're all ignorant. (Better luck next time.) Exit Steve Gibbons. Enter supergroup Journey and the audience approval is astounding. All the telltale signs of professionalism surface as this quartet of highly polished musicians takes to the stage. Their synthesized anthem resounds as a symbolic cloth backdrop unfurls behind them. But is is not until the lights go up, reveali.ng the members' identities, that the notion of supergroup becomes hard core reality. — Amazing journey behind 3/Set of silver snares and lateral cymbals is percussive mainstay Aynsley Dunbar, one of the most brilliant, as well as underrated, drummers in rock music today. His session work with the likes of Zappa, Mayall, Reed, Beck, Bowie and most appropriately, Nils Lofgren, is only to be outdone by his extremely visual live performances; those known to combine flashy showmanship with sheer power. Sitting among the multiple tiers of keyboards is leader Gregg Rolie, the co-founder of Santana, while across stage Neal Schon, another Santana disciple, contributes on guitar. With bassist Ross Valory, Journey is complete and the music begins; immediately bringing the clenched-fist crown to their feet. Their set consisted of a fine cross-section of their three albums, Journey, Look Into The future, and Next, their latest. The highpoints of their performance, however, came from their major success, "Look Into the Future." Selections such as the spacey title cut "Look Into the Future," the timely "On A Saturday Night," and the crowd pleasing "You're On^VourOww'* 1 Neal Schon's dazzling, string-breaking guitar solo) combined the proper elements that were necessary to send the Century's audience right into orbit. already won. Scattered followers cry, "We came to dance" as a frenzied female is carried off stage. The evening of rock and roll has begun. The group Nils is associating with this time has some old, familiar faces as well as some new additions. Brother Tom Lofgren handled the duties of rhythm guitar and organ well, soloing occassionally and sharing harmonies with bassist and long time Lofgren sessionman Wornell Jones. On piano is new addition RV. Patrick Henderson who did a fine job of complementing Nils on some selections while challenging him on others. But probably tlie most important acquisition is drummer Andy Newrhark, the backbone of the Lofgren quintet, whose production on the latest album was able to balance Lofgren's guitar expertise with his abilities as a singer/songwriter. Songs such as "Code of the Road" and especially "To Be A Dreamer" were indicative of this. Reaching the heights. But let it be known that Nils' guitar fire, when during a live performance, is subservient to nothing. And then there's his mobility on stage. £long with his spinning and repetitive leg kicking, the diminutive Lofgren incorporated the use of a mini-trampoline, off which he really "reached fhe heights" that evening. Nils closed his set with an explosive rendition of "Back It Up" that showcased him playing a solo on the guitar with his mouth (a la Jimi Hendrix, his other hero) and then exiting after a final backflip off the trampoline. Needless to say, this was probably Nils' best performance in Buffalo; surpassing those at the Outside Inn and U.B.'s Clark Gym. The best news now is that Lofgren plans to release, as his next album, a live double set featuring the group he is pouring with. If he cherished this last performance half as much as the audience did, you can bet he'll be back again, next time it will be to capture Buffalo on vinyl. Friday, 22 April 1977 The Spectrum Page nine . . �Janis lan Shea's Buffalo —continued from page 8— ... One of the concert's numerous high spots came during the acoustic "Jesse," a song Janis composed before her comeback and one of her most covered tunes. Accompanying herseJ#«« guitar, without the aid of her band, Janis passionately gave WW f"*mber everything her diminutive body could provide, singing pleas to the whispering whimpers that have become her trademark. Throughout the show, the most impressive thing had to be the unexpected power of Ian's vocals. Having already seen her previously, I had come prepared for the soft, quiet sounding vocals that predominate her records. But something has definitely happened to Ian's vocal quality. Either she's been taking good voice lessons, which I doubt, or it's just a conscious effort on her part; but her vocals were nothing less than awe-inspiring. Sitting in the theatre, intently watching her, I was totally mesmerized by the incredible power and force Janis combined vocally with her natural innocence and passivity. Well-deserved encores Rounding out the show as Ian's recent million seller, "At Seventeen." Called back for not one, but two, well-deserved encores, Janis performed "I Would Like To Dance," "Boy I Really Tied One On" (both from Aftertones), a surprising traditional folk tune, and "Watercolors," perhaps Ian's finest composition to date. Coming out for "Watercolors" alone on acoustic guitar, Ian proceeded to sing this lyrically powerful song, with all the experience of the battered and desperately heartbroken lover she wrote about; "Go on be a hero, be a man Make your own destiny if you can Go find a fence Locate a shell and hide yourself. Go on, go to hell Go away from me, / need no charity /' One thing that must be mentioned besides the rest of her excellent band, is co-vocalist and percussionist Clair Bay. Ms. Bay has sung with Janis throughout her comeback, and in concert provided beautiful harmonies to most of the numbers. Claire possesses an enormous vocal range and easily adapts herself to every type of song Janis peforms. Rounding out the band are Stu Woods, an incredibly soulful bassist, and Jeff Layton on lead guitar, again another extremely accomplished musician. Woods is one of the biggest factors behind the huge success Ian is having with her rock numbers, while Layton makes his presence felt on just about everything on a phenomenal performance. It was the ingenously gifted artist, with perfect an performance accompaniment utilizing all her resources and abilities. Janis Ian put of Dave Mason pleases crowd with acoustic performance by Barbara Kbmansky' Spectrum Music Staff Like_ his friend and occasional singer Graham Nash, Dave Mason has become one totally Briton with a Americanized image. After his departure from Traffic, a major contributor to the sixties' British invasion of the U.S., Mason emigrated to a musical aggregate that included most of the Los Angeles area's finest. He was called upon frequently to add his electric guitar to the works of Crosby, Stills and Nash, Rita Coolidge and others. He also developed an extensive musical partnership with the late Cass Elliot of the Mamas and the Papas, a cornerstone of the house populated by all the California dreamers. Although his concerts were usually received fairly well, after several albums an element of sameness began to pervade both the live and studio work of Mason especially the performances. There are only so many different ways to play "Peelin' Alright" and "Only You Know And I Know." The tropical flavor of "Split Coconut" provided brief respite, but even that tour was rather repetitious. What's an artist to do? The solution was fairly obvious: find a musical outlet that captures the basic? feel of onw's work, but back-up — maintain most of what you to keep the customer satisfied. In Mason's case, this sinply involved Fender the unplugging any. substituting and Stratocaster of seven scoustic guitars Mason brought with him to Shea's that Friday night. It wasn't an overwhelming change, but served very well in restoring some of the power that had been slipping from Mason's musical grasp. evening. Even the songs recorded with a full band on past albums did not seem remiss. For example, "Only You Know And I Know" sounded fresher at this concert than it had in a tong time. The only song that really didn't work in this format was "Feel in' Alright." The lack of drums was definitely felt. "Bring It On Home" would have been much more effective here, and that song was left out of the performance. Splendid acoustics Although this was not a totally performance from Most of Mason's standards innovative were released on the now-classic Mason, it was a pleasond change Alone Together album. From from his usual rehash of every there he chose his opener, "Just A previous concert. Now, if only he Song."

Simon J.

Where we were always is where we are who we talk to as we listen. Now is the springtime come to a land long frozen and "workin at night gets dangerous 'cause all the crazies are back on the street" leanin there, relying on their twisted presence, saquaro inside and out of the city. Slowly things loosen up, sap, blood and rivers run, daylight lingers so there's more night to get lost into more "time" to see things, to be out among them, alongside the road, sitting and watching and walking and singing along with ourselves. We are still here. Some may be gone but there are more of us. "Who is that?" That's one. That's one of us. We are all here with the light and the hunger and the millions of things we are part of. That's the way it is for us, "We are all a long way from home." We make maps and carry them in our eyes. They take us to and through, the dark within the heart's desires, the the dark dream darkness, the dreary darkness comin home poor, dark tomorrows and the darkest mystery of midnight in the iris of an eye. This is the Coyote darkness. Slipping into and out of the varying lights and locales of our common possibility. — — — by the Yuma bus depot wall; a daze in his eyes.

The appreciation comes from the promulgation of instrumental and vocal intricacy. Here, the familiarity joins hands with originality, resulting in success. And the gum-chewing is part of the innovation. Miles tries to carry the response over to songs like "Stranger in the City," "High Fly'n" and "Slow Down." But the audience becomes chary at being manipulated by the band, who force hand-clapping on their unwilling souls. Miles asks for too much too soon and is left with very little.

Billy Cobham's contributions to Solo Two as producer, arranger, composer, and uncredited, but extremely conspicuous, drummer of the session makes this LP as much his as Pete and Sheila Escovedo's. Pete and Sheila play timbales and conga, respectively, and along with their Spanish vocals, the percussion gives this music a strong Salsa feeling. Also featured on this album are former Charles Mingus/Horace Silver sideman, trumpeter Tom Harrell, ex-Herbie Hancock sidemen trombonist Julian Priester and percussionist Bill Summer. The album contains several heated points, sometimes ignited by the added spark of Latin percussion. "Fantasy Cobham's composition Junction" builds some fire as does Milton Nascimento's "Vera Crus." The title should have been "Solo Two plus Billy Cobham" Not a bad album. Fred Wesley and the Horny Horns is another vehicle for the slightly estranged mind of Parliament Funkadelic founder George Clinton. The album contains some crisp horn section writing and some interesting polyrhythmic arrangements for horns and arrangements vocals; which include such tongue-in-cheeks lyrics as RECORDS < The Dave Brubeck Quartet, 25th Anniversary Reunion (A&M) This album, which was recorded on a 1976 reunion tour, is the Dave Brubeck Quartet's 25th Anniversary album. Dave Brubeck and his saxaphonist Paul Desmond met in San Francisco more than 30 years ago. They played dinner music in supper clubs with as many as six other musicians. According to Desmond, Brubeck would play Bartok on his left hand and Milhaud on his right hand while Desmond and the rest of the musicians would screech on their instruments. By 1951, Brubeck and Desmond, (both greatly improved), formed the original Dave Brubeck Quartet with bassist Ron Grotty and drummer-vibraphonist Cal Tjader. Brubeck and Desmond went through many other rhythm sections until Eugene Wright and Joe Morello joined them in 1958. The quartet separated in 1967. During the nine year lapse, the band members remained musically active. Desmond and Brubeck periodically toured and recorded together, Wright formed his own band, and Morello gave drum lessons in New York City. Not surprisingly, this album finds the band members to be more proficient musicians than when they disbanded. Desmond's alto sSx sounds smoother and more lyrical than ever; Brubeck's piano playing seems less heavy handed, with greater emphasis on single note lines than in the past. Similar to the quartet's other albums, this album is composed of syncopated jazz pieces which were influenced by many styles of music. "St. Louis Blues," the albums opener, is a widely performed jazz/blues song. In this recording, Brubeck solos; playing heavy, disjointed chords first, then by playing lyrical note lines. "African Time Suite" features Munchies for your love Eugene Wright bowing and plucking his bass. The song is based on Between two sheets (Chora! response) traditional African folk tunes. "Salute to Stephen Foster" contains an Up for the down stroke improvised medley of that 19th Century American composer's songs. Between two sheets (Choral response) "Take Five," the Paul Desmond classic which appears on the Time We love to funk you funky style Out album, is redone on this album's second side. When it was Between two sheets (Chora! resonse) originally recorded, Brubeck kept a constant vamp on his piano throughout the whole song because it was written in an unconventional So on and so forth. Or how about time signature which the musicians found difficult playing. Because of Join the graveyard this, the original recording sounds very structured. This time around, (now Do the funky graveyard the band is accustomed to the unconventional time signature a Quartet Join the graveyard Trademark). Brubeck is free to improvise when he is Brubeck Request the of the funky ghost not playing the vamp during other musician's improvisations. The result is a sophisticated, more complex rendition of the song. "Three To Get Ready and Four To Go" is another song originally Etcetera and etcetera This is an album worth hearing, but not an recorded on Time Out. In this version, Paul Desmond improvises melody lines from well-known songs during the stops in the song's album worth buying. "Give us the funk," Front Money i$ a formula funk-jazz album from rhythm. At first, it seems strange to hear the first notes of a familiar tune come flowing from his horn, yet, Desmond is able to connect the David "Fathead" Newman. Lay down' a repititious bass line under an electric piano or guitar going individual melodies into the song's distinct integrity. "Don't Worry About Mee" is the album's finale. Here, Desmond's wah-wah-wah and you have formula funk-jazz. There is some decent stuff here, like Newman's palying is unusually melancholic. The song reminds me of showtune alto solo on "Still Hard," where he seems to get it music, but played with feeling. So The 25th Anniversary Reunion was somewhat successful. Perhaps up, a little bit. The same applies to "So Fine Fine." this album finds the band members old, greying, and less energetic, but Front Money places near the bottom of my list. the musicianship on this album overwhelms thos small disadvantages. —Alan Mark Strauber Because Joe Morello has recently gone blind, this will probably be the last professional recording for the Quartet.

The major record companies didn't feel that his music would sell and he was not about t6 change his style of music to suit them. He cut a highly overlooked debut album on the Atlantic label a few years back and followed that up with the single "Wild In The Streets." The single did manage to make it to the local charts but didn't stay up there for too long. For five years he has been struggling in various clubs on the East Coast and now has finally produced a long overdue album which is quickly gaining recognition and is deserving of much praise. Jeffreys, along with a seven piece band, will by touring this spring to promote "Ghost Writer." The album succeeds in that it creates a fusion of hard-core rock, azz, and reggae, without sounding at all disjointed. It is the synthesis of these different sytles that gives the album it's unique texture. Instrumental backing is supplied by some of the best musicians around Hugh Me Cracken and Alan Freedman both play electric guitar, Al Cohn plays tenor sax, and David Spinozza on the slide to name but a few. "Special magic" is contributed by Winston Grennan on drums and Earl "Wire" Lindo on keyboards (both played with Bob Marley on his First U.S. tour.) Jeffreys' voice is a versatile instrument in itself. In "Wild In The Streets" and some of the other hard rock numbers he sounds remarkably like Mike Jagger that same harsh yet seductive quality. In Dther numbers the Carribean influence predominates and he sounds ike a genuine "Latino." Garland Jeffreys was a street kid from N.Y.C. and his lyrics iptly portray the struggles and anxieties he faced. Being that he is part jlack, part white, with a bit of Spanish in his blood as well, didn't nake for an easy adolescence RECORDS — - - — — — I'm a little boy lost on the street one night Looking for a woman gonna set me right Show me baby everything you got Then I'll show you dartin' everything I'm not attention.

Thad's influence is definitely present; as composer of three of the seven tracks and as musical supervison, but Mel Lewis is the solid rock of rhythm that holds this small ensemble session together. "Ain't Nothin' Nu" storms open side one, encompassing long, powerful lines of tenor sax by Brecker Brother Michael Brecker. The rhythm section, propelled by Lewis, bassist Ron Carter, and the piano of Thad's brother, Hank, supports strong solos including one by trumpeter Freddie Hubbard (who says Hubbard can't play anymore?). Hubbard delicately develops Thad's beautiful ballad "A Child Is Born" in a quartet context. To quote the liner notes, "freddie is a musician jiven to a lot of musical horsing around, but not here. Thad was in the :ontrol booth all during the recording of this LP and it could very well je that 'being around Thad made Freddie a little more serious, [specially on this tune'." Charlie Parker's "Moose the Mooche" is taken for an accelerated ide as*Lewis lays down solid fhythm whole Carter winds his long bass ound around the beat. Freddie's fingers fly, as do those of Brecker and fank Jones. Carter's memorable minor/major composition "De lamba" is given the brass treatment and evokes inspired solos from all ivolved. "Windflower," performed as a trio, features Carter's gliding lass slides and sedately swinging solo by Jonas. "Sho' Nutt Did," penned by Thad the day before the session, with some patented Ron Carter bass walk and heads into a no ullshit blues. Hubbard builds his solo from a three note motif used by Ito saxist Gregory Herbert, as Brecker ensures with a soaring tenor alo, transcribed note for note inside the cover of the album. I hope it doesn't take Mel Lewis another eighteen years to record Ks next solo LP, and I hope it's as fine as this one. —Alan Mark Strauber ... [pens •odigal Sun Abba, Arrival (Atlantic) Bread, Lost Without Your Love (Elektra) Although it is pnly four months old it appears* that 1977 is not going to be an exceptionally prolific year for pop music, so far, the only two recordings of this genre to receive any attention have been Abba's Arrival and Bread's Lost Without Your Love, which were both released early in January. Nothing of any importance has been issued in theiinterim, so it is time to give these two albums some belated Both deserve consideration for very different reasons. Abba has been very popular in Europe for the past three years (or more) but, until now, has gained relatively mild acceptance on this side of the Atlantic. The release of "Dancing Queen" aspired to change all this. That song has crept steadily up the charts to the No. 1 spot, and is now only starting to go down. Arrival from which the song was taken, is by fgr the group's best selling album. To say that Abba is knocking on the doors of superstardom would no longer be irrational. With Bread, the story is almost the opposite, BI6ssed with instant success when they first entered commercial music in 1970, they continued to bean important MOR mustical force of the early seventies. Within three years their success started to wane, and the group fragmented as David Gates and James Griffin departed for solo careers. The efforts of both musicians proved to be abortive, so now, two years later, Bread has re-formed. Lost Without Your Love is their first recording. Bread surprised many critics when their single did very well on the charts for it was quite similar to what they had been doing prior to their demise. The LP did not do so well. As is so often the case, the single was the best thing off the album, and it didn't take those who bought the album long to realize this Despite its success, "Lost Without Your Love" has many flaws, and they point to one of the album's main defects. Leader/composer David Gates has written some very pleasant songs, but he doesn't have any idea of what to do with them. "Lest Without Your Love" starts out with a delicate piano/vocal introduction, then builds nicely into an ballad reminiscent of the MOR-pop styled "Goodbye To Love." In fact, it is almost Carpenters' too reminiscent, for about midway through the inappropriate electric entirely Gates inserts an song, break, which ruins an otherwise fine effort. guitar guitar way the same that the electric (In much Love.") ruined "Goodbye To Another area where Gates fails is in lyric writing. Admittedly, he was never fantastic with words, but this time his lack of talent is more obvious than ever. The images of LWYL are the essentially shallow, saccharine and sufburban housewife, type that might enthrall a midwestern but would sound ridiculous to other listeners with more intelligence. , , - I lay awake the whole night long and wondered was wrong But when you woke and touched my face ■» I knew that I belonged Belonging to someone I find is very necessary The load is lighter on your mind When someone helps to carry. / — David Gates is not the only songwriter on this album, so he is not entirely responsible for its failure. About half the &ngs were written by band member James Griffen with the help of Robb Royer, and they, if anything, are much worse than Gates ever could be. While Gates' compositions have some sense of delicacy and finess, those by Griffen/Royer are about as subtle as the average disco song, and about as appealing. Their awkwardness is enhanced by the contrived arrangements, most laden with soft guitar strumming and cotton candy strings. "Fly Away" is about the only bearable fragment of this mess, mainly because of David Gates' fine vocal assistance on the choruses. Despite its many faults, it would still be unfair to characterize this album as a forgettable and unsuccessful effort. Lost Without Your Love simply has a very limited appeal; hopefully, Bread will do better next time. As an expression of all the good points of pop, Abba's Arrival meets with much more success. Consisting of ten songs, each one having the potential to become an AM hit, the album should be a delight to those who don't think pop music should be reserved for 13 year olds, as well as to the 13 year olds themselves. Although it is an Abba album. Arrival distinguishes itself from their earlier efforts in a number of ways. Most important, though not most noticeable, is the loss of energy from between their last album and this one. Nothing here has the straightforward drive of "Waterloo" or "Mama Mia"; the songs are more sedate, more refined. Nevertheless, they retain a certain freshness which prevents any part of the album from becoming - boring. There is another, more superficial change. Abba had grown with the times, and consequently the disco beat is a trademark of many of the songs, particularly "That's Me" and the highly successful "Dancing Queen." In spite of this, there aren't any actual disco songs on Arrival all of them are pop material, with the disco trappings added only for a broader, more commercial appeal. In the areas where Bread failed, Abba succeeds magnificently. Arrival is professionally produced, and extremely suggestive of Phil Specter's work at times. The songs themselves are well written and quite varied, yet cohesive enough to prevent the album from sounding diseonnected. Even the lyrics, with the exception of a few bad rhymes ("And you're only smiling/ when you play your violin.") and childish pretensions, are far from cliched and sometimes almost facinating. ; Everybody screamed when kissed the teacher / Leaning over me He was trying to explain the laws of geometry And / couldn't help it / just had to kiss the teacher. With all its assets. Arrival still has one major flaw: an atmosphere of superficiality that seems to be a part of most pop LP's these days. While it does not lessen the enjoyment of listening to this album, ..it. is fortunate that not too many other bands have latched onto Abba's style; filling the airwaves with Abba sound-alikes would make AM radio even more of a wasteland than it is already. —Eugene Zielinski Friday, 22 April 1977 The Spectrum Page seventeen . . �Now comes Miller time. || iP; p* © 1977 Miller Brewing Co .

Why do utility companies support nuclear power in spite of the bleak financial outlook? The answer is a complex one. The companies have a large amount of capital tied up in the future of nuclear power. Also, electricity rates to consumers are based on the utility’s fixed costs or base rate.

Marriage is regarded as unnecessary. “Why do you need to be married if you already have each other?” asked Kisses.

Cars glide at 25-30 miles an hour and it often takes an hour to have your dinner prepared at a local restaurant.* During our first few days, we came to the conclusion that many of the natives had to be constantly stoned. The young people working at the hotels and' restaurants were always laughing and telling stories, joking amongst themselves and with us. We were frequently offered nights on the town and tours of the island by the natives who wanted to make sure we were having a good time. Later I began to think that it might be a natural high they were on. Why not? Each day there is more all things are done in good time sunny and sparkling than the last and there are always new and interesting people with whom to talk. “1 love my job,” said our waitress one night. “A few times customers have been nasty to me and the manager has asked them to leave.” The truth seems to be that the high spirits of the natives are often a combination of the take-it-easy atmosphere and the effects of marijuana. Band members all seem to be floating away with their music. “We usually smoke up before a show,” a lead guitarist later revealed. “But even when we don’t, we get high because the people are digging it and we love to make people happy with our music.” He also spoke of large, privately owned marijuana fields on the island, which are manned with armed guards. “Sure, the government knows about it,” he said, “but they are paid off to look the other way.” Cocaine is also readily available. As one waiter, Kirk, put it: “It can snow in jFreeport,” As a matter of fact, snow did fall in Freeport one day this January, when temperatures dropped to a record breaking r degrees F. — Track Bulls enjoy first win of year against ECC North by Jeffrey John (ECC) 82-54.

The Bulls literally ran away from their opponents by amassing 62 points against ECC’s 15. The Bulls started their winning trend on the very first running event, the 440 yard relay, when sophomore Larry Williams, freshmen Barry Calder and Bob Reiss, and senior Paul Kubicki combined to beat ECC’s relay with a 45.0 second clocking, just 1.6 seconds shy of the existing school record. Williams came back only minutes later to win the 120 yard high hurdles. He missed equalling the school record by only one tenth of a second as he was clocked in 15.8. In the 440 intermediate junior Greg hurdles Willis displayed a powerful burst of speed to gain a come from behind victory in a time of 60.0. especially Buffalo looked strong in the distance events. In the mile run senior John Ryerspn led a Buffalo sweep in a time of 4:33. He was followed across the finish line by sophomores Mike Fischer and Tim Pitchford who clocked and' 4:56 4:42 respectively. Buffalo sweeps up In the half mile freshman Ken Dole knocked six seconds off his previous best time to give him a victory with a 2:03 clocking. Ryerson took second in the event with a time of 2:05. In the two mile run the Bulls produced another sweep. This time it was Fischer who led the Bulls home in 10:08. Fischer was by followed Pitchford and Ryerson who recorded times of 10:26 and 10:28 respectively. In sprints the Reiss and Kubicki formed a one two punch in both the 100 and the 220 dashes. Both men clocked 10.5 in the hundred and 23.4 in the 220. Freshman Mark Hines ran the 440 yard dash in 54.0 to take second place. The Bulls finished the meet with a victory in the mile relay as a team composed of Willis, Hines, Schiffler, and Dole posted a time of 3:40.1, their best clocking to date.

Lacrosse club opens home season with win Buffalo’s lacrosse club opened up their home schedule this week with an impressive 9-8 overtime victory over Monroe Community College. Monroe greeted the host Bulls with three quick unanswered goals in the first period. At that point, the sticksters chances seemed dim. But just before the period ended, Frank Massaro scored the Bulls’ opening goal. The second period left the Bulls still down 4-2 despite Kenny Cohen’s lone goal of the day. Behind third period goals by Rolland Garrow and Jack Simon, Buffalo’s stickhandlers rallied to make the score 5-4, in favor of the visitors. With the tension running high, Massaro scored his second goal of the day, Monroe scored twice and then Steve Hackling added two more jo tie the game at seven apiece, sending the contest into overtime. Comeback in overtime Once in overtime, M.C.C. drew first blood with a dough hard-fought goal. But shortly thereafter, Garrow retaliated by tying the game. With time almost expired, havoc broke loose on the Buffalo bench when senior Rich Morgan bulleted a shot past the Monroe goalie, thus providing the Bulls with their first victory of the season. Coach Perry Hanson was very pleased with the team’s performance. Hanson had wanted to win this game quite badly. Last year the Bulls suffered a 4-2 defeat at the hands of Monroe and he viewed the rematch as a “revenge game.” Although the win was characterized as “a total team effort,” there were four Buffalo standouts. Unquestionably, the stickhandler of the game was Massaro who tallied two goals and two assists. Likewise, gamewinner Morgan hustled extremely well to insure the victory. Goalie George Talboys played a superb game inside the net. He stopped key shots especially when the Bulls were playing in their man-down defense (i.e., when Buffalo had one player less than Monroe because of a penalty). Leading that shorthanded defense was the sticksters Larry Leva.

LaPenna added that the opening match against Ithaca and the SUNY Tournament are always tough matches. “All of these teams hurt us in the fall,” he said. The outlook for the Bulls can be described as guarded optimism. The team is hopeful that it can play up to its potential, and improvement is expected.

Sub Special Features Editor ■ — Jpgk rif* i V : Last Thursday, the Sub Board I Board of Directors approved the purchase of a Burroughs B7000 mini computer for automating Sub Board operations. Sub Board is the disbursing agent of student activity fee monies for this University’s student governments. Its divisions include University Union Activites Board (UUAB), campus publications like The Spectrum and such health care programs as the Pregnancy Counseling Office. by Jlene Schweitzer and Beth Levine ' v M President Robert Ketter will make public his final decisions next week. The Colleges being reviewed are Vico, Rachel Carson, Math Sciences, and College H. A Vico College spokesman indicated that the draft of its Charter was revised to attain a higher educational level before being submitted to the Division of Undergraduate Education for approval. 1 here has not been much controversy surrounding the College chartering this year, and several Colleges refused to comment on their positions since they do not want to jeopardize their reappointment, nor express negative feelings. Many of the more controversial Colleges will not be reviewed until next year. The College Chartering Committee evaluates all existing Collegiate units to prove their academic legitimacy. According to the Reichert Prospectus (the Colleges’ constitution passed by the Faculty Senate in 1974), each existing Collegiate unit must submit a Charter demonstrating academic legitimacy or cease to exist. 4 ' /*■■> ;' wnnYi&r . s'*rty.-,h--.U * ■*** «*l The cost of the system will be $12,332 per year for five years, with an additional outlay of $15,000 In the first year, but Administrative Division Executive Director Tom VanNortwick said that buying the computer “was, in effect, no different than hiring another person anyway to meet increased accounting demands being made on Sub Board. VanNortwick feels that the new system was inevitable. He said that Sub Board’s auditors, the firm of Haskins and Sells, told him that it was just a matter of time before Sub Board would have to automate. Other advantages of the new to system, according VanNortwick, include its for possibilities expanded its backup operations and processing capabilities. With the new computer. Sub Board could conceivably take over the accounting functions for an organization like Inter-Residence Council Businesses (IRCB). "We won’t be . as dependent on individuals which we now really are. If one of our staff got run over by a truck tomorrow we’d all suffer,” explained VanNortwick. - About the decision to purchase the Burroughs computer as to another model. opposed VanNortwick sand, “We took a piece of equipment, which aside from being the cheapest, has the greatest capability.” He explained that after anaylzing bids from IBM and Digital. Burroughs offered the cheapest price and a hardware system especially for educational designed organizations like Sub Board. VanNortwick also pointed out that the Burroughs plan is a lease-purchase agreement, which means after five years Sub Board will own the software. Plus.

College sources said this week.

Sub Board tightens What this means for the Student undergraduate Association fSA) is that Sub Board will now be able to receive and disburse funds with greater speed, and Sub Board itself will be a much lighter organization^ Skimming off the top Currently. SA pays five percent of its disbursements (about SbOO.OOO) as a fee to Sub Board. Lalonde proposed increasing this rate which has been stable for three years, to 5.b percent. Bui VanNortwick said he would rather facilities for two types of input the classic, on-line keyboard input, and an Audit hntiy cassette device which is intended for off-line data collection. These two distinct methods of access to the computer will make Sub Board more organized and under better internal control since different people will handle the different forms of input. Additionally, large profits undertaken by Sub Board, such as the preparation of financial statements for SA and for Sub Board itself, will not hog the computer since there are two locations for inputting data. The only cost to SA could evolve from the slightly increased cost of the computer over manual labor (about SI600).

The salvage value of Sub Board’s Burrough’s L5000, currently in use, will also help. If there is any additional difference, Sub Board might consider going outside SA to a local bank for a loan. In any case. VanNortwick pointed out, at the end of five years. Sub Board will own the software which he feels will still be worth at least SI5,000, “And in the sixth year." he added, “we have It for free." Twelve voters The Colleges Curriculum Committee evaluates the Charters of each College and.emplys the following criteria in determining academic legitmacy: relevance of the proposed courses to the College’s program; propriety of the instructors' experience in scholarly or practical fields which demonstrates confidence to teach the proposed course; avoiding duplication of another course in the College or any other unit of the University; and considerations of students’ needs and requests. According to The Reichert Prospectus, there are twelve regular voting members on the Committee including six faculty members designated by the Faculty Senate Executive Committee, one member from the Academic Affairs Council, two undergraduate students to be chosen by the Student Association (SA), one graduate student to be chosen by the Graduate- Student Association (GSA), and two members designated by the College Council. In addition, there- will be six non-voting unofficial members of the Committee who may submit reports. I he responsibilities of the College Chartering Committee review all charters proposed are to and makerecommendations to Dean of the Colleges Irving Spitzberg. This review will be conducted during the academic year in Sign or reject the its Chartering Committee makes A l td recommendations, all charter proposals will be considered by Spitzberg, Dean of Undergraduate Studies and the Vice . President tor Academic Affairs Ronald Bunn for independent recommendations to Ketter. On the basis of all evidence available Ketter will sign or reject each charter. Aspiring new Colleges must begin as Workshops and serve in that capacity for a minimum of one semester before they may be considered by the Chartering Committee for full collegiate status. The Workshop program is specifically designed to facilitate the development of new programs. Such programs in their initial stages may not necessarily have defined goals, gathered significant student or faculty interest, or concrete plans, but may need funds for working out ideas. If a Workshop is not granted a College Charter, it may exist as a non-credit Workshop and apply again for chartering as a College after one to three semesters. �I ' Commentary Student Aides Needed For A first-hand account of a 1977 My interest in Africa was greatly stimulated by L. Gray Cowan, former chairman of the Department of African Studies at Columbia University when I was working in the Asian Studies program at the University of Michigan. Professor Cowan introduced me to Fr. Placide Temples’ Bantu Philosophy the first such work of its kind. Afterwards ! taught African philosophy and religion as part of an introductory philosophy course at SUNYAB. Student and faculty response was so tepid that I dropped it altogether after 1966. I resolved, nevertheless, to visit Africa to study its religion and philosophy, and art form when I could. Opportunity to do so appeared in 1972 when I traveled across North Africa from Morocco to Egypt and Lebanon. The next year I went through Central Africa from Senegal to Ethiopia, and again this year I flew from Rio to Johannesburg and thence down to Capetown, took the Garden Route by bus to Port Elizabeth, spent a week in Kruger Park and then flew northward through Rhodesia, Malawi, Tanzania, Kenya, Sudan and Egypt. Cairo attracted me not only because I had made a good friend there (when 1 was in Tripoli waiting for a sandstorm to subside), but also for the magnificent sculpture at the Egyptian Museum, and the monuments at Thebes, Memphis, Luxor and Aswan. My friend, the Egyptian sculptor of the statue of Gamel Nasser in the center of Alexandria, and Col. Gadaffi and other notables, showed me the less-known sights of Cairo and the surrounding countryside. Among my reasons for going to South Africa this year was the fear that I might not be permitted to visit it for some years if I delayed. I also wanted to see the ancient rock paintings, photograph village life, animals and birds, as well as collect masks and sculpture. My visits to t|ie major universities of South Africa would also be useful and educative. The socio-political situation in South Africa and Rhodesia was always in the limelight, although local television coverage of it was sparse because of strict censorship. South Africans turned out to be calmer if they were of British descent rather than of Dutch heritage. The Afrikaners of Dutch lineage seemed uncompromising in their attitude towards keeping the blacks “in their place.” An outstanding example of this was the attempt to separate various groups of blacks into “statelets” (segregated areas) like Bantusan where they would have no industrial, , urban or commercial base. Rhodesians more uptight In South Africa I met several fighters for equal rights for the black and colored majority. One of them was recently released from jail. The repressive Voerster government has a large internal security police force that keeps track of insurgents, black, colored and white. I already knew of some of their activities from a professor who had emigrated from South Africa to teach at SUNYAB ten years ago. A number of professional people are under house arrest in South Africa, as in the instance of the journalist whose account was broadcast on Canadian educational TV. They can go to work, but cannot communicate with their friends or travel about. The situation is comparable to that which occurred in Greece under the rule of the Fascist generals. It is said that the building boom in South Africa is partly based ’ on the construction of prisons, jails and detention camps. Intellectuals whom I met were defensive about South African racial, labor and business policy. Development Program The Rhodesians were more up-tight than the South Africans. They feel “surrounded” by hostile governments and have taken to patrol their borders around the clock. They have suffered the weight of labor boycotts in Africa and Europe. It is impossible for Rhodesian airliners to land anywhere but Switzerland I was told by one lady on the verge of labor hysteria. British, Italian and French discourages trade with either country. The African states nearest Rhodesia are hostile and almost totally uncooperative. An exception to this is the movement of the railroad that runs from Zambia through Rhodesia into Mozambique. It would have been hard on all three countries had Zambia and Mozambique refused all passage. Upon leaving Balawayo (in Rhodesia), I found myself in several convoys led and followed by armored cars. Various jeeps, rovers and vans were comandeered for border patrol. Men up to fifty were called up for active duty. On the Zambesi River we were protected by an armed patrol boat, but across the river we could see the Zambian patrol boat which was based near Livingstone. mostly at night. Gunfire There were could be heard above the roar of Victoria Falls and it was rumored that a "‘careless American girl” was shot near the Victoria Falls. I was soon to discover that the usual tourist to be shot was an American wandering around at night on some undisclosed mission. Most of the armored cars, tanks and rovers and patrol boats are manned by young men equipped with rifles or UZI’s (machine guns made in Israel). In all of Africa I never saw a black man armed, but the reason for that, I was told, is that those armed were hiding out in various areas at the edge of urban centers and along the borders of countries frieqdly to liberation. The Office of,Student Affairs and Services has received renewal of its grant to aid foreign students with their transition to a new university and community. Student aides will be assigned to a wide range of settings, such as Student Affairs Offices and the Foreign Student Help Center. Aides will be given training over the summer with responsibilities beginning in late August during Foreign Student Orientation. Applications for these stipend positions are available until Monday, May 2nd in 201 and 216 Harriman Library. UNIVERSITY STUDY ( Interested in earning university credits while exploring a new land in all its aspects? Why not consider a summer, semester, year, or degree program at one of Israel’s seven leading universities. Religious studies, humanities, the social sciences and a host of other courses are offered in either English or Hebrew with special emphasis on helping you get a grasp of Israel. Whether if be in Jerusalem, Haifa, Tel Aviv or the Negev, a study program at an Israeli university will give you a new feeling about Israel and yourself as well. Write for a brochure giving informationabout all the universities and the programs they offer. Council for Advancement of Study Programs at Israeli Universities, 515 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10022, (212) 751-6070 - Armed battle in progress The blacks of South Africa and Rhodesia are supported by the international labor movement, socialist countries, and. some religious organizations such as the Quakers. The government of the “advanced” capitalist countries have been “reluctant” to support the blacks, as emancipation would cut into their corporate profits and make the extraction of raw materials more costly (they believe). Even where there is some sympathy for the plight of the blacks in South Africa and Rhodesia, commercial interests seems to override them in Western Europe and North America. The question is asked whether South Africa and Rhodesia can resolve their difficulties without resort to armed conflict. The answer seems to be that, first of all, armed struggle is going on. It is a daily fact of life. The guerillas have-certain disadvantages in South Africa, but definite advantages in Rhodesia. Disadvantages are lack of arms and expertise, lack of money, and absence of powerful, friendly neighbors. Lack of theory as to how to proceed is another disadvantage, although there are lessons to be learned from other revolutions in Africa. So far the black insurgents have not won any notable local political gain*!, although the African National Congress and other organizations are learning techniques that will probably pay off in the future. White rule in Rhodesia and South Africa is helping the revolution by making a “middle way” impossible. For the irfsurgents the only choice is between armed revolt and surrender. South Africa and Rhodesia have a different situation from Angola and other recently-liberated states. They have internal colonization rather than home-and-abroad colonialism.

He cited a recent study which says that 40 percent of the Indian people live at a level of minimal subsistance or below. Chatterjee feels that the recent tendency of foreign investors to emphasize industrialization has led only to the trappings of industrialization, such as pollution, and that the fringe benefits still go to a chosen few. f.ditor's Hole: The Thin/ World Student Association program "Inlpcrialism Today. was held Saturday and Sunday in Squire Hall. The program stressed lire need to prevent the superpowers, which include the United Stales, the Soviet Union, and several countries in Romir Chatterjee of. the Indian People's Association, in North America said Saturday he has witnessed an awakening of people everywhere to the evils of imperialism. Chaterjee rejects the commonly used phrases such as “detente, cooperation, and the emergence of a new economic order that will save the Third World,” classifying these terms instead as rhetoric that should be ignored. " Western T'urope economic penetration", political. military, and from of the underdeveloped nations “ 1776 Chatterjee concluded his' point by claiming that India can’t be successful under a capitalist system. “India is not a large, dormant, and sleeping giant as many people think.” he stated boldly. “The people are not docile.” He added, “The problems of the Indian economy can’t be solved by going from fascism and back and forth to parliamentary democracy. We need revolution.” Malcolm Caldwell, of the School of Oriental and African Studies, also attempted explain to imperialism. He views imperialism as a dangerous force that makes its victims culturally and economically dependent, and leaves various other scars. He views the two superpowers as dangerous, but claims the Soviet Union has less capacity to dominate at this time than the United States. Western European of the world. Third WoHd groups view the struggling peoples of Asia, Africa, and Latin America as essential roles to the anti-imperialist movement. These people ace dedicated to “bringing about a new economic order in According to Chatterjee, imperialism is a phenomenon that is special to the capitalist era. He indicated that India serves as a “playground for the two superpowers, which are two systems that are basically capitalist in nature.” He added that these superpowers compete frequently, and often take turns in exhibiting external control. opposing intervention and exploitation, and in fighting for and safeguarding national sovereignly and independence. ” External pressure For example, Chatterjee mentioned that during India’s recent period of turmoil, the Soviet Union vigorously supported Indira Ghandi as the champion of people’s rights. Later, in the post-election period, the United States became more dominant and re-established its control and interests. Chatterjee objects to the tendency in America to criticize only the United States and underplay the Soviet Union which he views as equally powerful and dangerous. Chatterjee rejects any discussion on imperialism that doesn’t focus on class structure. He indicated that since India received her independence in 1947, the masses have just sunk deeper into servitude. He explains, “Imperialism never relinquishes its hold through the peaceful transfer of colonial authority.” Chatterjee claims that a country is kept down when it receives large amounts of foreign investment or aid. In order of magnitude, the countries which have foreign investment interests in India arc Britain first, with the United States gaining, Japan, Italy, and West Germany. Figures indicate that between 1948-1958, foreign investment grew 112 percent, with steady rises since. America aids most countries or Japan. Foreign aid is another area in which outside powers exert pressure on India. According to Chatterjee, the leading donors are the United States (42.3%), the World Bank (!6.5%), Great Britain (9%), West Germany (7.5%), and the Soviet Union (6.1%). Chatterjee sees foreign aid as another method of keeping India dependent. Aid leads to the accumulation of great debts, which lead to further dependence continued Chatterjee. The Indian representative pointed out that these debts are difficult to pay back since the Third World countries can barely compete in world markets. Chatterjee also claimed that foreign investments focus on manufacturing, and this only serves to — Imperialism Today V 1 at * According to Caldwell, imperialism is “a dead end, that is an extension of capitalism and that serves the minority.” He added that imperialism wastes resources and produces luxury products for the minority while others go hungry. Caldwell sees the very existence of imperialism as supporting the evenutal destruction of the natural environment. He concluded by saying that as the national liberation groups around the globe are succeeding, a pressure is being placed on the imperialist nations. Caldwell claims that the results of this pressure will be further exploitation of the American working class, an overall worsening of living standards in America, and an increase in tension all over the world. • nr * • :f ; 14 O- Western weapons w sold to S. America M by Brett Kline depth, having just heard of it the other day, divides the sales into high technology low and Feature Editor Anns sales and the importing of Western technology in L atin Ameirca have increased in recent years, James Cockcrafl of Rutgers University said Sunday. He. began by reading from Lenin’s “Imperialism and Higher Capitalism” of and States a info, launched technical discussion • condeming the “industrial, bank and commercial capital” that guides imperialism and has effected the formation of “capitalist metropoles and socialist peripheries.” “Imperialism has shaped the development of underdevelopment in many Third World countries,” he commented. The economics of colonialism have alway been based on the mother country importing raw goods and exporting finished products. Implying this as one imperialism, basic tenets of Cockroft pointed out that on top of exporting goods, “the U.S. is now exporting whole factories.” He cited Mexico and Peru as being two countries where nationalized industry has opened the doors to the importing of western (American) technology sold at a high price. “By overpricing the technology and underpricing the product, the U.S. retains “fantastic liquid capital," “Capitalism said Cockroft. preserves enclaves," he continued. Weapons sales Cockroft presented audience with a new trends in arms sales American and South countries. This new the small theory of to Latin American analysis, which he had not really studied in categories, “Sales of low technology items such as guns, helicopters, tear gas which weapons and other constitute ground level repression of class struggle have increased in the last few years,” he said. The sales of “high technology” which as includes materials such armnaments, bombs, and nuclear and also includes the needed to produce them, have also increased; but at a slower rate. Cockroft established that Brazil has become a major independent armas producer and as such must increasingly rely on from “Western technology As imperialists.” higher a proportion of that country’s total production is arms oriented, so must a higher proportion of its weapons, technology technology by imported from the West. He noticed that Brazil is in the process of signing an arms accord with West Germany to produce nuclear weapons with techology, because, German according to World War II agreements, Germany cannot build its own. Cockroft said that the Soviet Union has “taken the capitalist with production road of social-imperialist importantly noting relations," its trade offensive in Latin America. “Cuba is only averagely dependent on the Soviets," he said, “but there is not country like Cuba where there is such mass participation in decision-making.” Sam Noumoff of the Center of Last Asian Studies at McGill University in Montreal stated has flatly, U.S.S.R. “The -Kline surpassed the U.S. in the air and on land.” He cited figures showing that while the U.S, spends only five percent of its Gross National (GNP) Product on defense activities, the Soviets spend 14 percent. The validity of these figures was questioned by a men\ber of the audience who said that C'.NP figures did not reflect the amount of money spent on technology at home and in smaller countries, an area in which the U.S, far outspends the Soviet Union. In discussing detente and disarmament, Noumoff said that currently, “disarmament means to disarm your enemy,” He did not recent think that the Carter-Vance mission to the Soviet Union was serious, saying, “Carter now says he didn't mean the Soviets .on the put defensive, that he wilr take a second look. This either means to that Brezinski and other close staff didn’t know how to deal with the Russians or that they were foiling Carter, or that the whole thing was a fraud.” Using many specifics, Noumoff illustrated how although (or may he because) the Soviets hae most recently increased their rate of arms production faster than the U.S.. Secretary of State Vance asked them to discard or give up. The Soviets easily realized that, he concluded.

The witness of Angola, Mozambique and Guinea Bissau is a fresh encouragement. Furthermore greater international sympathy will rise as it is more widely known that the liberation movement is not anti-white nor terrorist. The hostile press in Africa (and elsewhere) has spread the tale that the movement is anti-white and terrorist in order to increase resistance to it. The same fabrications are spread about the Zaire freedom fighters who are trying*to bring down Mobutu, blaming the fighting on Angolan and Cuban “troops.” American and Belgian interests in South African uranium and Zaire’s copper should not be forgotten. President Eisenhower warned of the selfish interests,of the industrial-military complex before the Vietnam debacle. There is, unfortunately, little reason to think that the industrial-military complex (which is an international webwork) has learned anything beneficial to the American people or constructive for international relations from Korea, Cuba, Vietnam, Laos, Cpmbodia, Guinea, Mozambique, Zambia.

This article deals with a / 960's study on obscenities. by Jay Rosen Spectrum Staff Writer In the mid-1960’s there was a prevailing attitude in Washington that “something should be done” about pornography. In characteristic Congressional fashion, the Commission on Obscenity and Pornography was created in October 1967. The Commission was created to investigate and develop recommendations in four areas: to analyze current laws and recommend new definitions of obscenity. to explore the methods used in distribution and traffic of pornography. to study the relationship of porn and obscenity to crime and other anti-social behavior, — — — particularly among youth. to recommend action to effectively regulate the traffic in pornography without interfering iri constitutional rights. Several events along the way to reaching these objectives thrust the commission’s research into the public arena. Richard Nixon, in mid-1970, appointed his first and only member to the Nixon left no doubts about his personal. feelings on the issue. He appointed Charles Keating, president of — Citizens for Decent Literature. Secret experiments Commission members Hill and Link, acting on their own initiative, conducted public hearings on the issue across the nation. The unsanctioned hearings made headlines throughout the United States. The aim was to build political support for control of pornography. In a New York City hearing, 26 of the 27 witnesses testified in favor of control. Commission research techniques were supposed to be kept secret. It was feared that certain experiments would have to be modified or abandoned if made public. Research was aimed at maintaining a low profile, information about experiments was leaked to columnist-lack Anderson. One of the experiments made use of a plethysmograph (a device attached to the genitals to measure reactions over a period of time) oh a sample of University of North Carolina males who were exposed to erotica 00 minutes a day for three weeks.

Vice President Spiro f. Agnew said in a campaign speech, “This Commission was not named by President Nixon' b(o sir, your honor, it’s not our As long as Richard Nixon is President, Main baby Street is not going to be turned into Smut Alley . . .” When the report was released, conservatives worst fears were realized. The commission declared porn hot guilty on almost all counts. It found no evidence to support the theo’ry that pornography leads to sex crimes. In fact, the report cited a study in Denmark where the incidence of sex crimes actually decreased following the liberalization of obscenity laws. The report stated, “Public opinion in America does not support restrictions upon the right of adults to see explicit sexual materials.” The Commission also recommended repeal of all laws Restricting the sale of sexual materials to consenting adults. It suggested stronger controls on sales to minors but reported that few minors are actually able to purchase or view erotica.'They could not find any positive connection between sex crime offenders and exposure to erotica. In one study, a negative relationship seemed to hold. ... Nixon's legacy A more discouraging mandate could hardly be dreamed of by moralists. Congress quickly acted to denounce its own Commission. Senate Resolution 477 was passed' three weeks before the election -it rejected the findings and recommendations of the commission by a vote to 60 to 5. Walter Mondale, who voted against the resolution, was- bitter, “I doubt if any of them read the report. It was over 1000 pages long.” Nixon issued his own rejection of the report, offering this rationale: “The Commission contends that the proliferation of filthy books and plays has no lasting effect on a man’s, character. If that were true, it must be that great books and £reat plays have no enobling effect on man’s conduct. Centuries of civilization and ten minutes of common sense tell us otherwise.” Oliver Wendell Holmes once said, "No woman was ever seduced by a book.” Richard Nixon claimed pornography would “poison the wellsprings of American and Western civilization.” It has been •Nixon’s legacy, and not Holmes’, which has fostered the continuing restrictions on what Americans can see and read.

We were glued to our chairs enthralled, paradoxically /blown away’.” ' Haynes worked with Lester Young in 1947 before joining Charlie Parker in 1949, two jazz legends-(and only 22 years old).

Rubella screening tests to be offered presents an organizational meeting The Sub Board Health Care Division is now offering Rubella tests at a minimal price for University members in Michael Hall basement. Rubella German Measles is usually harmless to those who contract it. However, in pregnant women, the disease is often transmitted to the fetus, which may subsequently suffer congenital deformities. Women who contract Rubella in their first four months of pregnancy run the greatest risk of having a deformed child. Division Director Bob Olds said the sole purpose of the screening is to prevent these congenital deformities by alerting susceptible individuals. Olds hopes to control the spread of the disease through immunization of the University community. “Outbreaks of Rubella in high schools and colleges have assumed increased importance,” according to Olds. “Recent Rubella outbreaks of the great extent occurred at Memphis State University and the University of North Dakota. From previous studies we know that Rubella occurs in a seasonal pattern with incidence increases occurring in January, reaching a peak in April or May, and dropping to a low level in August. Hence, our emphasis on screening at this time,” he explained. — TODAY — Screening process The screening process consists of a blood test which is administered by Medical Technology Department students under the physician’s supervision. The blood sample is tested for the presence of Rubella antibodies. The antibody level in an immunized person generally remains stable for two to four years following the immunization, whether immunization occurred through vaccination or by having had the disease. After this time, an antibody boost is usually recommended, although the vaccine should not be adrtiinistered in the two months preceding pregnancy or during pregnancy. A mass rubella screening will be held Thursday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Fillmore Room. Rubella screening will be held for the remainder of the 1967-77 school year. People having low antibody levels can receive free vaccination through Childrens Hospital in Buffalo.

One of those mad' 19th century experiments in Fourierism? Actually, this is only part of the present day reality at . the found Farm located in Summertown, Tennessee, the largest working commune in the United States. The Farm came into being about six years ago when Stephen Gaskin, spiritual leader of the Farm and a former English teacher at San Francisco State College, departed from the psychedellic disillusionment of Haight-Ashbury leading a caravan of buses carrying about 200 followers. They arrived in Central Tennessee farming country with a plan for religious and economic self-sufficiency which they hoped would revolutionize their lives. “What’s really revolutionary is to grow your own food, taking the food out of the profit system. Deliver your own babies, instead of paying a thousand dollars a whack at a hospital every time you have a baby.. Learn how to fix things instead of joining in the black box economy . Get outside that system,” Gaskin has said. The way out was not so simple the first year. The soil was not the best and the Farmers had no idea of how' to make it healthy Everyone crops. had yield embraced vegetarianism in an effort to utilize proteins in the cheapest, most intelligent way possible and the diet proved difficult for some to maintain. Gaskin was one of a group busted for growing which did marijuana, an occurrence nothipg to enhance these former freaks in the eyes of their neighbors. Thj4 dispiriting state of affairs called for an elementary education in survival skills that had never seemed so necessary before. Men apprenticed themselves for no wages to local farmers in return for agricultural knowledge. The, women researched and implemented a balanced vegetarian diet and learned the art of midwifery. Several Farmers are currently being sent through medical school and will service the commune in the future. Growth From a shaky start, tremendous growth and satisfaction has resulted. Over 2000 acres in Tennessee produce almost all the food the Farmers need and they are now leasing 190 acres in Florida so they can farm year round. The commune has its own school, bank, construction company, medical clinic, soy dairy and telephone system called “Beatnik Bell.” The permanent population of the Farm has burgeoned to more than 1000, and to receives over 15,000 visitors annually. The Farm has attained a place in the good graces of the community as well as the state. Officials have been sending delinquent teenagers to work out fheir problems on-the Farm, and even the sheriff who arrested Gaskin way back in the beginning says he would not mind if his own son went to live there. Because it has been so successful on its own behalf, the Farm has begun to help the less fortunate enjoy the benefits of the 20th century. “The obvious answer to all the famines across the world is for us to share across the world, rather than have some of us be very rich while some of us are starving,” Gaskin says. “This country has been so incredibly rich for the last twenty years that it spends enough money on reducing salons to save Bangladesh.” To fulfill its obligation the Farm has organized a non-profit, charitable corporation called PLENTY. In its first two years PLENTY gave away 50 tons of food to the West Indies, Latin America and several cities in the U.S. One of PLENTY’S most ambitious projects to date ..jnyolved helping Guatemalan Indians reconstruct their lives after the earthquake which hit in February 1^76 wholly the Farm seems idyllically seductive, yet at the same time a collective society makes serious demands on its members that are' not easily met. In a community that has formed around a set of cooperative ideals, individual needs are made subordinate to the needs of the group in order to further those ideals. There is not much room for the development of the private self at the Farm, and absolutely no tolerance for competitive or overly aggressive feelings. A non-cpmmitled attitude towards sex is strongly discouraged couples who live together are considered engaged and those who have babies, married must possess some sort different cpntext (he., the midwives).” Life on Hopes for the future Perhaps the babies born on the Farm will be the ultimate measure of its viability as they grow older. Children are thought of as the raison d'etre of the Farm; consequently, much depends, on .their acceptance of values and ‘patterns of behavior their parents have deemed spiritually enriching. And in the future when they get that inevitable urge to wander, what happens as children leave a communally-raised connected, homogeneous environment that teaches them to be open and trusting, and try to make sense Of the vastly diversified one around them? The. answer to this question may well lie in the confident prediction of Johnston: ..“Over a long enough period of time the tradual and everyone of religious consciousness to live there. The feminist movement is inapplicable at the Farm, where women wear long skirls and are referred to as "the Ladies.” accretion of these ‘alternate’ communities will simply displace the-dpminant mode of capitalism, which is crumbling slowly of its oWn internal accord. Nobody needs to overthrow capitalism. It will die a natural death." According to Village Voice columnist Jill Johnston, who paid a visit to the Farm last ,yeaf. “The women who followed Stephen Gaskin never entered the ego-stream of America's ‘liberated" women.

Wednesday, 20 April 1977 . The Spectrum . Page nine �The issues are real To the Editor. This letter is a response to a letter to the Editor, published on April 18, 1977. The anonymous author citicized our class, “Principles of Persuasion,” or as he (she) incorrectly stated, “Theories of Persuasion.” He said we “created” a “non-issue” for the “sole purpose of testing” our “own effectiveness as persuaders.” He (she) also accused us of being “mongers of mind manipulation.” We, who are members of that class, would like to rectify these false and misleading criticisms. Our assignment was to choose a real issue that exists on campus and run a persuasive campiagn to bring awareness of an issue that is relevant to the students at SUNYAB. This is exactly what we have attempted to do. The problem of guns for campus security has been an issue since, at least, last year. Evidence of this can be found in a letter in The Spectrum, on Guest Opinion by the Buffalo Support Committee of the United Farm Workers of America Anybody remember the grape, lettuce, and Gallo wine boycott?. Almost everyone you talk to these days is under the impression that the United Farm Workers’ (UFW), AFL-CIO, struggle to unionize the nation’s millions of migrant farm workers is all but over. They point to the fact that just recently a major agreement was reached between the UFW and the Teamsters Union, whereby the Teamsters will cease to harass and interfere with the UFW’s effort to organize workers in the fields. Obviously this was a major victory for both the UFW and all its supporters nationwide. However, this agreement in no way assures an end to the exploitation of workers by the real oppressor, namely the grower. Ernest and Julio Gallo are still continuing to employ any means within their grasp to prevent the union’s efforts to better workers’ conditions. The growers are still perpetrating a system by which the average farm worker can only expect to live to see his or her 49th birthday. It’s a way of life that includes hardships you and I would find utterly incomprehensible. For example, did you know that the typical migrant farm laborer can look forward to: a susceptibility to infectious diseases such as penumonia and tuberculosis 300 percent greater than the national average, a chance to become one of the hundred thousand yearly victims of pesticide poisoning, or a chance to see his or her children working 16 hours a day in the sweltering fields at the age of 9 or 10, never to see the inside of a high school. A migrant farm laborer is very likely to have a home consisting of a 4 by 6 foot trench with a large cardboard appliance box as one’s roof, a workplace where ajrequest to get a drink of water or to go to the toilet can result in immediate firing, a family in which the children who pick the food y«u and I so gladly devour are starving to death. Finally, the worker will probably have a job that offers no compensation whatsoever for the six months he or she may spend recuperating from a fall from a dilapidated ladder that a negligent grower didn’t both to replace, an average annual income of $1500, a living place that is no more than a rat-infested shack, etc., etc. The injustices are simply too long to list. In answer to the question of whether the boycott is still on, the answer is an emphatic yes. Only about five percent of the table grape growers and 50 percent of the lettuce growers in California have come to contract with the UFW. Many of the growers are now employing what is known as a October 18, 1976, which asked if students were aware that there is active legislation to arm security. In a bill, introduced by P.M. Sullivan, to the New York State Assembly on February 1, 1977, it states that “The state university trustees may promulgate regulations for the training, equipment, weaponry, functions and operations of such security and police officers.” We were not “using each person on this campus as guinea 1 pigs” nor were we giving -paranoia injections around Finals time. The whole basis of his (her) letter seemed to be the idea that students at this University are extremely gullible, and it was his (her) “duty” to enlighten them regarding those who would take advantage of their naivete. Obviously, this person is ignorant of the principles of persuasion, for it is not in the manipulation of people, but through the presentation of evidence that one can evaluate and, then, make the conclusions that will persuade himself. The absurdity of his criticisms is reflected in his (her) obvious lack of knowledge in the matter. The letter permeates ignorance. He arrogates to himself the knowledge that can only come from careful inquiry. His (her) accusations are based on insufficient information and carries an overtone of spite. The anonymity of the letter belies the sincerity and strength of his (her) acclamation as a concerned student.

These company unions are in fact not unions at all, but merely totally non-existent “paper organizations” that the growers manage to get on the election ballot. They provide no benefits whatsoever to the workers. However, through threats and intimidation, the growers scare workers into voting for these front groups instead of the only true union, the UFW. Without your jsupport through the boycott, the UFW’s 63 contract victories would never have come about. So until you hear otherwise from the UFW itself, the boycott of non-UFW lettuce, grapes, and Gallo wines is still in force. So be sure to look for the UFW’s black eagle on your produce, and if you don’t see it, demand to know from the store manager why he or she is selling non-UFW produce. Another major battle the UFW is wagering is with Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company, who owns 80 percent stock in one of the largest citrus ranches in the country, Coachella Growers, Inc. The UFW has won the right to represent the workers in this ranch over a year ago, but the growers have been totally unwilling to seriously sit down at the bargaining table. They are interested only in talking about such timely concerns as how many thumb tacks the company will provide for bulletin boards, as opposed to real issues such as health insurance plans, grievance procedures, pension plans, safe working conditions, and job security. The UFW is asking all supporters to .contact their local office of Connecticut Mutual to ask what the company is doing to insure the rights of its farm workers to decent working and living conditions. As you can see, the farm workers’ struggle for justice has a long road yet to travel, but the struggle can and will be won through the efforts of the UFW and its supporters like you and I nationwide. The UFW movement is one cause that we can direclty be involved with via our continuing boycott of non-UFW products. Another way you can become involved with the farm worker cause is to attend the showing of “Fighting for Our Lifes,” a documentary about the history of the movement and the union. The film, sponsored by the UB UFW Support Committee, will be shown Thursday, April 21, at 7:30 p.m. in the Squire (Norton) Hall main floor cafeteria, and also on Saturday, April 23, at 2 p.m. in Diefendorf 146. An up-to-date discussion of the latest developments in the UFW will be included, along with the possibility of some live folk music. Donations will be accepted. We of the UFW Support Committee look forward to seeing you there. “company �Following are selections from the SA Constitution. Preamble: We, the day-time undergraduates of the State University of New York at Buffalo, in order to; Promote the general University community. The farce welfare Provide for the proper management of student affairs. the necessary Maintain manifesto Ttr the Editor. The history of all hitherto existing common State U.B. is the history of the struggle between personal involvement for the sake of one’s vanity and detachment for the sake of one’s sanity. Norton Hall elities and alienated commuters, the S.A. and the B.S.U., power hungry school boy politicians and academically pressured students, the manipulative administration and the manipulated faculty, in a word the oppressor and the oppressed, stand in constant opposition to one another, carrying on an uninterirpted, now hidden, now open fight, a fight that each time ends in the common ruin of the allienated masses, or to be more blunt, a complete farce, and this folks js the farce manifesto. First let us direct ourselves to the subject of apathy, a popular weapon used by the S.A. to establish guilt feelings among an already disgruntled student body. The individual student, accepting such propaganda, tries to become involved in S.A. activities and it is at this point that he faces the most absurd farce of all. All activities are cleverly designed to include that same elite segment of the student population, yes, your guessed it, those Long Island liberals with law school aspirations who can be seen scurrying about the upper floors of Norton Hall. Commuters, minority groups and your everyday student looking to have fun every once in a while, are closed out of the action. These people become disillusioned and their alienation increases. It is like a cancer, it festers. And in the midst of this we have the S.A. officials pleading with the students, demanding their participation. We find this an insult to our intelligence. It is clear that this “chosen” minority feeds from this imbalanced system. Like a parasite they suck upon this aimless energy. So if you wonder why turn outs are so low for S.A. elections, ask the people that were elected. It’s exactly the way they planned it. This, coupled with the circus like atmosphere that surrounds S.A. administrative actions, produces even more apathy. For example, the February 28 edition of The Spectrum cited a misuse of power by a student offocial: “Sub Board treasurer Arthur Lalonde has said he ‘bears the burden’ for giving certain Sub Board Division Director and workers $20-$40 bonuses at Christmastime, in addition to their regular stipends.” “Lalonde was quoted as saying; M wanted the individuals to know the Sub Board had taken note of their excellent efforts and wanted to thank them’.” This is obviously a blatant misuse of student funds and this was apparently condoned by the S.A. and the Sub Board. Meanwhile, the same edition of The Spectrum carries a story about the initiation of a court battle between the B.S.U. and the S.A. regarding misappropriated funds. This is a clear example of power politics, where the Norton Hall elites can freely squander our fees while minority groups are closely scrutinized. Obviously, a large amount of money is controlled by a small group of the student population, that supposedly represent the interest of the student body as a whole. Student government logic dictates that the student body’s lack of participation in the use of these funds should be met with pleas for more useless and misused programs. However, our thinking finds the reduction or elimination of these fees as a far more logical reaction to the present situation. Thus, the S.A. controls more funds than actually needed for the small percentage of the student body that actually makes use of these S.A. programs. Along with the termination of programs and funds, student government, as it exists today, should be dissolved. The present government is not one of the majority, but one selected by a minority. In conclusion, the masses at this University are not ignorant of these proceedings. They have strong feelings about these matters, but they are simply tired of being beaten. The end result is a total farce. , misery at .. James T. Winarski Douglas R. Chiponis Tony ./.

A proposed amendment shall be adopted by affirmative vote of a majority of those voting in said general referendum, provided ten (10) percent of the regularly enrolled daytime undergraduate student body votes. ' SA violates its constitution by not holding Leverendum by Michael Stephen Levinson The Administration’s attitude toward students changing their government is very conservative: The last Friday in March, a week before vacation, the President of Student Association, Dennis Delia, received petitions to hold a referendum in order to make the student government for course credit. Friday. April 22, is the absolute deadline for the SA to set up voting machines and hold the referendum. It’s too late for them. They have already broken the spirit of the SA preamble, and the letter of the SA Constitution (your constitution) in a number of places (see box). Although the Constitution clearly states the President of SA must call a meeting of the Senate within one week after a petition signed by 10 percent of the students is received. Delia, the SA President has not yet seen Hi to do this. Because of this, and his disruption (recorded on tape-on file) of a meeting of the six student governments (Sub Board), he may be recalled front office. A'petition to recall an officer from SA requires only 5 percent of the students to sign and then goes directly to the Student Wide Judiciary. If it is established in the SWJ that the charges are true then the officers charged are recalled. Thrown out of office. Such a petition is being seriously considered. Why doesn’t the SA want to hold a referendum that 10 percent of the students have signed petitions for. Because they know they can’t win in open referendum if the student body is allowed to choose between them (SA) and another, more reasonable form of undergraduate government, like the recently Lev established Student Government for course credit. Tough shit. When questioned initially about the referendum Michael Stephen Levinson, author of the petition by and incidentally, the teacher listed for the first IGA Course: The Student’s Government College F 250 (officially meeting the .first day of summer school l l )77). Delia claimed there was no course and if there wasn't a course, there couldn’t be a vote because if it passed, then there wouldn’t be anything.’’ The Student’s Government is a course and was established as a course at the last curriculum meeting of the Colleges. While at that meeting, it was discovered that SA people had called different members of the curriculum committee to tell them that they didn’t want a government for course credit to be offered. Nice. THE COURSE EXISTS. Now Delia wants to hear it in a letter from Walter Kunz. Acting Dean of Undergraduate Education (DUE), as if Dean Kunz has nothing better to do besides write letters to Dennis Delia about new courses when 40 new courses are presented for DUE approval everytime the DUE meets. hands off. The students are entitled to change the form of their government it's in the guidelines. The student’s government is primarily the creation of "the students-mandated by the Slate in the guidelines that the students have a government, if only to represent the student body to the administration, besides handle the disbursement of the student’s state mandated activities fee. — The student hacks raise other claims in the 2nd floor corridors of Squire Hall: “It’s not legal because our lawyer (paid for with your money) advised us there isn’t a structure and the stale requires a structure” blah, blah. blah. The lawyer (Richard Lippes) told me. “Lawyers are whores: they can serve any cause.” Another campus lawyer.told me the petition was perfectly legal and within the structure of the University. In good spirit, although it isn’t necessary, and somewhat redundant, the following lines could be added to the original petition: "All the powers of The Preamble, constitution, by-laws, articles of organization. Book of Rules and structures therein of the Student Association and its offices shall be turned over to The Student’s Government for Course Credit College F 250 that is the lirst IGA course officially meeting the first day of Summer Session 1977.” “In the interim period the Student Association shall stand.” If Delia was willing to honor his SA Constitution, the Senate would be meeting over this issue and if everyone felt it was necessary we could add those lines. But that isn’t the issue at hand. The issue is the right of the students to vote for change in the first place. The issue is the right of the students to vote, in a referendum, not which government is in power or office the next day. Dennis Delia and fellow officer. Jeffrey Lessoff have already demonstrated the SA and its constitution are not feasible for an undergraduate government at SUNYAB. These two students/ in their stupidity and intransience can actually bring down the whole SA as an institution at SUNYAB. Good for them. Structurally, the Student Association itself defies analysis of its constitution, written by a few bureaucrats a few years ago to disenfranchise everyone else is nonfunctional. Formal complaints are being filed with SWJ (Student Wide Judiciary) today. A petition to recall Dennis Delia and Jeffrey Lessoff from office may also be circulated. A structural analysis explaining the proposed new government is still to be forthcoming. Wednesday, 20 April 1977 . The Spectrum . Page eleven �Round Up...

In a lecture-discussion format, undergraduates of schools nationwide were able to converse with professionals of many fields on relevant scientific issues. The social, moral and ethical implications of recombinant DNA research and genetic engineering were of particular interest and the subject of hot debate. Do the predicted benefits genetic researchers anticipate outweigh possible dangers sighted by a growing number of disenchanted citizens and technologists? Jeremy Rifkin, Director of the People’s Business Commission, called for a 4-year moratorium on recombinant DNA research. He declared that in the last quarter of the 20th century, after the first seven hundred years of the Scientific Age, “The age of technology and physics and the Industrial Revolution are being challenged by a new reality with the dawn of the Organic Age and the prospect of post-man.” Complicated issues In opposition, Dr. Betsy Anker-Johnson, Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Science and Technology, described present recombinant DNA research as “a speeding up process of what already occurs in nature.” No excessive restrictions are called for by the advocates of this view, but a need for a minimum level of standards and public safety and unity within science disciplines. Ron Wylie, Director of Regulation and Compliance of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, while speaking on the rules and processes involved with drug abuse and regulation, referred to the current saccharin controversy, as a very complicated and unpredictable situation. Currently the FDA is assessing labratory evidence compiled from a number of sources. Private corporations, government funded programs, and countries around the world are looking lor acceptable evidence to resolve the situation. Amid such contusion the question can he raised as to whether such government institutions as the FDA efficiently protect the healtli of the public. Wonder drugs, added preservatives, new artificial sweetners, are increasingly being found to produce cancer and other harmful effects in labratory animals after they have already been put on the market. mi? ,4V>T* ANTI-FREEZE • IRC's Semi-Formal Dinner-Dance 8:00 pm 2500 Main Street Friday, April 29th SANTORA's - — Live Music Open Bar Complete Dinner FREE TRANSPORTATION • Tickets only $5.00 IRC feepayers - - $7.00 non-fee payers First Floor Goodyear SUMMER 1977 Summer in Western New York is lively and pleasant.

The Sp*Ctrt*&’. fege thirteen �•'•us attending the school and what the job situation might be like after graduation. The presentation was made together with several other stabs at reaching the high school student going to college. Eliminate guesswork Colleges try to ease confusion by Helaine Lasky the student feels cheated by professors or the courses Special to The Spectrum theihselves. A new market of older students returning to college presented a new problem for the admissions folks as their needs differ from traditional students. (CPS) The decision to attend college has always been a complicated question of where, when and how much. In an effort to ease the confusion, college admissions officers are frantically updating catalogues and brochures with the latest financial aid and employment information. Nevertheless, a recent seven-state survey of more than 5,900 prospective college students conducted by The College Board, a nonprofit association of over 2,000 schools and school systems, concludes that still — more detailed information is needed than is available. More than 150 higher education and student leaders in Washington, D.C. at a conference coordinated by the National Task Force on Better Information for Student Choice, a Department of Health, Education and Welfare project, and judging from the three-day session of meetings and round-table discussions, educators are still uncertain about what to tell students about their programs. A mountain of brochures distributed at the conference appeared to be designed to deal primarily with the financial aid application procedure. Few dealt with the student consumer who wants to know exactly what he or she can expect from courses or how to obtain a refund if met recently 60’s children “The attitude seems to be, let’s entertain them, not worry about educating them. They (admissions people) still think they are dealing with 60’s students and are not offering anything to the older student,” complained Ruth Stultz, a representative from Prince George Community College in Portland, Ore. The College Board study found that low-income students, in particular, want more complete financial aid data but that this belief appeared at all income levels. The survey conducted in California, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, Ohio, Oregon and Virginia by 10 colleges in the surveyed states and the Washington, D.C.-based National Student Educational Fund found that student interest in almost any kind of information “rose as family income decreased.” Some college officials believe that the high cost of college presented outright will scare off prospective students while others simply lack the communicative skills. One enterprising community college in upstate New York prepared a 12-minute film about the campus, the cost of Closing the gap The gathering in Washington, D.C. featured the very designers of the student information projects but did not host any high school students who would be likely to use the material. Students basically appeared by proxy only as survey results and even those, admitted one admissions officer, are often doctored, indicating that students’ answers on college surveys may be angrier or more dissatisfied about what they are getting in exchange for their money. One Michigan college tried a 250-page prospectus out on the conferees called “Closing the Information Gap: A Program and Employment Prospectus,” which though weighty and monotonously designed, was filled with valuable data concerning such topics as whether college really matters, matching interests and abilities to career areas, computing program costs and the programs themselves. There is even a glossary of frequently used words. But finally, the meeting of educators in Washington, D.C. resolved little and packaging information to high school and college students appears to need greater communication between student and administrator, and less round-table congratulatories at national conferences among the academic poryers that be. Many catalogues were passed around and many were passed over. But the most important element missing in the academic draft was the students themselves who might have responded spontaneously and candidly to information primarily designed for them.

About 16 persons presented testimony to. the trustees. Christian Gruber, SUNY Binghamton professor, defended the four credit/Course system in operation at SUNY Binghamton and SUNY Buffalo and presently under .attack with an altered FTE scale. Gruber charged that the present system did not shortchange'SUNY students and was neither a “fiscal gimmick" nor a mpve by professors to shirk responsibilities. Chancellor Kelly responded by assuring his support. SUNY student Phil Deitch spoke out for disabled and handicapped students throughout the SUNY system. He recommended the appointment of a staff member at every SUNY school to oversee a program for handicapped students and stressed SUNY support of ALL UNDERGRADUATE ENGINEERING STUDENTS Elections will be held on Wednesday, April 20th at 3:30 pm in Acheson 5 tor the offices of President, Vice-President, Treasurer and Secretary.

The panel of trustees also heard testimony from Broome County Community College representatives who bemoaned the lack of funds allocated to community colleges and emphasized their important role as a community service. They also claimed that cutbacks in community college funding increases job competition for two-year college grads and may prevent them from completing four year degrees at SUNY colleges. Another topic for consideration was the proposed construction of the Utica/Rome campus. A half-dozen students approached the trustees with the problem and discussed the proposal to share facilities between Utica College and Upper Division. ‘Such obvious targets’ Attended by about 100 students, the hearings sparked some discontent among groups of students. A banner was strung up that read “Trustees Get Off You High Horse” and a flyer entitled “Why We Should Egg the Trustees” was distributed. A few students, in an effort to politically satirize the hearing, were costumed to represent Mayor Beame, Jimmy Carter and Nelson Rockefeller. Trustee Johnson said the somewhat hostile reactions were expected, and that the trustees are “such obvious targets.” Chancellor Kelly, in an interview with a student reporter explained that it was difficult for the trustees to respond to student demands because serious problems require in-depth consideration and a panel of less than half the trustees is not »b(e to make decisions. , Student Association president Lisa Chason siad of the hearing, “It to see that education h’as. become broader in the last j»?Caxte, it has not democratized: A perfect example is the way the trustees meetings are being held, with no opportunity for dialogue or access to the decision-making process.” The hearing was presided over by trustees Darwin Wales and attended by trustees Thayer, Johnson, Sinnot, Holloman and Jackalone, as well as Chancellor Kelly and other SUNY officials. Besides students, about 20 to 30 administrators and a number of faculty members and private citizens attended the meeting. �ms vTr A COLLEGE RING It’s a symbol for life '■ Senior Mike Dixon stands 6-3 and weighs 215 pounds and when he steps to the plate carrying a baseball bat, you have to feel sorry for that poor little white baseball. So far this year, Dixon has clubbed six homeruns (only three count because the remainder came against junior college or professional teams), and had a big doubleheader Sunday with eight runs batted in against Fairfield. Dixon already owns the Buffalo career records for RBIs and homers, and he is our Athlete-of-the-Week. Baseball Bulls lose control on the mound The baseball Bulls started off their northern schedule with their bats booming. Last year, Buffalo led the nation in team batting (.361) and they picked up right where they left off last year. The Bulls scored 31 runs and banged 43 hits in 28 innings, losing twice to St. John’s on Fairfield twice on Sunday. Buffalo coach Bill Monkarsh started lefty Bill Casbolt in the first game against St. John’s, but he was replaced by Mike Betz in the fourth and Ron Mero in the seventh. All three pitchers had control problems, walking a total of eight batters. In spite of their troubles, the Bulls managed to keep pace with the Redmen, led by catcher Mike Dixon’s two run double in the sixth and Phil Ganci’s homerun. At the end of seven innings, the score was tied 4-4. St. John’s John Morilli hit a single with two on in the eighth to give St. John’s the win. The nightcap was no contest at all for the Redmen. Buffalo used four pitchers.to try to control the onslaught of the St. John’s hitters, but to no avail; the Redmen scored four runs in the second and five in the fifth enroute to an 11-6 win. The Buffalo hitters again had a field day. Rightfielder John Pderson had a double and a triple and batted in two runs and Ganci and Mike Groh had two hits and two RBI’s each. SatfirdaiF.-and beating Dixon produces Buffalo got back on the winning track the next day against Fairfield. Led by Dixon’s eight RBI’s, Buffalo took both contests. In the first game, Dixon hit a three run homer in the fourth and knocked in another run on a single. Rick Brooks pitched a fine game for Buffalo, but gave way to Casbolt in the seventh. The final score was SENATE MEETING TODAY 4pm—Haas Lounge Everyone is Welcome! 6-4. The last game was another hitters’ paradise, especially for the Bulls who scored 15 runs to the Stags’ 10. Dixon had a three run double and a sacrifice fly. Pederson had a two run double in the third. Buffalo starter Dave Borsuk had to be replaced by Craig Warthling in the second.

Page fifteen �Fearless NBA predictions by Jay Rosen Spectrum Staff Writer Editor’s note: Jay Rosen has agreed to stick out his neck and make some perilous predictions about the current National Basketball Association playoffs. the With National and American Basketball Associations now merged into one league, professional basketball will crown a single champion for the first time in over a decade. As the playoffs head into the millionaire quarter-finals, the players get serious, and fans can expect to see some of the finest basketball ever played. champion Defending NBA Boston meets Phildelphia in one of the Eastern Division quarter-finals, and the series is expected to go the full seven games. The 76ers have had trouble convincing anyone that they’re the “mpst talented team in sports,” as they have been billed. All season long the guards have played “Keep away” with the basketball, while superstars George McGinnis and Julius (Dr. J) Erving roam the baseline hoping for a rebound. When Dr. J gets the room to perform his brand of unique basketball surgery, the 76ers can be awesome, despite inconsistent play in the pivot from Caldwell Jones and Darryl Dawkins’ If coach Gene Shue can get his assemblage of stars to play team anything resembling basketball, the 76ers will waltz their way in to the finals. Boston has finally come around, with guard Charlie Scott back from an injury and center Dave Cowens getting his red head together, but this version of the Celtics is weaker than least year’s. Gone are wiley veterans Paul Silas and Don Nelson, who were always at their best in April and May. They have been replaced by a pair of formerUCLA hotshots, Sidney Wicks and Curtis Rowe, neither of the biggest surprise of the season, finished with the best record in the league. Coach Jerry West has transformed the Lakers into the most efficient club in the game. Kareem Ab'dul-Jabbar is playing the best ball of his career, excelling in all facets of the game. When streak shooter Cazzie gets the hot hand, Los Angeles is unstoppable. While the bench is not that strong, West has been getting consistent enough play from his starters. Not many of the Lakers have extensive playoff experience. The Warriors will be trying to recapture the spirit that propelled them to a stirring triumph in the NBA finals two years ago. The cast of characters is virtually the same. Forward Rick Barry is passing off better than ever and if opponents slack off, he can still hit the jumper. Gus Williams and Phil Smith provide steady backcourt play. Up front, the Warriors are a little weak. Center whom look comfortable in the Celtic green. John Havlicek continues to play his way into the hall of fame. While having lost a step, Hondo can still be counted on for a last second shot or clutch rebound. JoJo White leads the offense along with Scott. harness the If , Shue can racehorse 76ers, the Celtics, always a running team themselves, will be hard pressed to keep up in a seven game series. Prediction Philadelphia in seven. Houston Washington In the other ' eastern series, Washington Houston. The Rockets have marched into the — playoffs behind two newcomers; Moses Malone, who has matured into an awesome rebounder and inside threat, and guard John Lucas who needed no such maturing. Lucas has taken control of the Houston floor game, which relies on mightly mite Calvin Murphy and textbook shooting of Rudy Tomjanovich. Washington is also a changed team. Phil Chenier and Dave Bing still anchor the backcourt, although the latter has been in a slump of late. Gone are Len Robinson and Nick Weatherspoon, two flashy one-on-one players, in favor of the funadmentally solid rookie, Mitch Kupchak. Forward Elvin Hayes has a tendency to try to do it all. Prediction* Houston in six. Golden State Los Angeles In the West, (Golden State meets Los Angeles. The Lakers, - Page sixteen The Spectrum . Wednesday, 20 April 1977 . Clifford Ray goes to the boards well but is no threat to score. Jamaal Wilkes is just the opposite. Neither Ray nor Robert Parrish will be able to keep Abdul-Jabbar from dominating. Prediction: Los Angeles in six games. Portland Denver Portland and Denver tangle in the other western quarter final. The Rockets, hottest team in the league in October and November, are virtually unbeatable at home, as is Portland. Denver will rely on the aerial stunts of Guard David Thompson and the defensive work of forward Bobby Jones. Paul Silas is still a terror underneath, but shot horribly this year (36%). Center Dan Issel and Jones play the most intelligent basketball on their side of the Rockies, and Thompson can shoot over any human. He has rapidly developed into a clutch player. In Portland, Jack Ramsay has Bill Walton finally playing up to - his potential, proving he is the; can stay with Thompson without the finest rebounder in the game. He a pilot’s lipense, but foes at Trailblazers are formidable Forward superb also a passer. is Maurice Lucas is performing like home. Prediction: Denver in seven v Dr. J was supposed to. The games. In the semi-finals, look for Lucas-Jones matchup will be among the most intersting in the Philadelphia over Houston and playoffs. Watih for Ramsay’s Los Angeles over Denver.

Dr, Stuart C. Nottingham of he Food and Drug Administration .recognized the enormous gains made by American biological research, but also the need to evaluate those gains in terms of humane ethical standards. As one speaker put it. “Biologists cannot be closed systems anymore.” ' Does the FDA, Department of Health, Education and Welfare, and other organizations such as the National Institutes of Health protect the rights of prisoners and mentally retarded children in drug experimentation? A recent rise in court cases involving drug induction has prompted suspician that such institutionalized subjects are unknowingly being used as guinea pigs. Dr. Allen Crocker, Associate Clinical professor of Pediatrics of Harvard Medical School and director of the Developmental Evaluation Clinic of Children’s Hospital in Boston, called for a recognition of the rights of the mentally retarded before any experimental decisions can be made. Other topics discussed were Behavior Control and Modification, Home or Hospital: The Birth Experience and Patient Participation in Medical Care. These are just a few of the many ethical questions prompting a new desire not only among students and professionals, but tht? public as well, to evaluate biologital decisions that effect our every day life. This year’s Bioethics Conference participants unanimously agreed that along with the great advances technology is making in many fields such as Biology and Medicine, our moral character must grow as well. We must openly discuss the issues that face humanity because in today’s age, every decision is apt to effect all mankind. As undergraduate Donald A. Guadagnoli of George Washington University put it, “Death is not the enemy. Doctor Inhumanity Is.” Track club drops first meet by Jeffrey John Spectrum Staff Writer The Buffalo track club opened its outdoor season on Saturday against Geneseo and Fredonia, at Geneseo. The Bulls returned with two losses. They were edged by Gdheseo 75-69 and crushed by Fredonia 127-18. The Bulls, usually tough in the outdoor season, got a strong dose of what was once their own medicine as Fredonia’s Eldred Stephens single handedly scored more than the entire 21 points Buffalo team. Stephens, a senior, had been Buffalo’s ace in the three previous years but transferred to Fredonia when it was announced in 1976 that there would be no track at Buffalo this year. Stephens, who still holds four University of Buffalo school track records, amassed an incredible total of 41 points against Geneseo and Buffalo while competing in five — events. The Bulls were never even.close to Fredonia, but the meet with Geneseo was neck and neck. Buffalo senior Walt Halady led all Bull athletes with 16 points. Against Gepeseo Halady won the javelin with a 135’7” throw and the shot put with a 45’ 12” heave. Two new team members, freshmen Tom Egan and Nick Sacomano, added much needed events strength to the Bulls’ as they each placed second and third in their events. Egan’s scores were in the long jump while Sacomano’s were in the triple jump. In the mile run. Bulls’ senior John Ryerson struggled to a first place finish against Geneseo and a third place against Fredonia with a time of 4:35. In the 120-yard high hurdles sophomore Larry Williams, returning to the team after a long layoff, made his presence known to both Geneseo and Fredonia by taking second place against each with a 16.8 clocking* Freshman Doug Kamholz took third place against each opponent with his 18.1 clocking. Freshmen help In the 440 yard run freshman Mark Hines raced to a first and third place finish with a time of 54.1 while junior Pete Schiffler took second place against Geneseo with a 55.9 clocking. Freshman sprinter Bob Reiss ran the 100 yard dash in 10.9 and wound up first against Geneseo and third against Fredonia. Reiss came back to run the 220 yard dash and placed exactly the same and was clocked in 23.2. Reiss finished the day with a total of 14 points. In the 880 freshman Ken Dole ran 2:09, an effort which was good for a second against Geneseo and a third-against Fredonia. In one of the meet’s toughest events, the 440 yard intermediate hurdles, junior Greg Willis unleashed a 61.4 effort which gave him a first and third place against Geneseo and Fredonia respectively. the three mile run In sophomore Mike Fischer successfully paced himself to a first (against Geneseo) and second place finish (against Fredonia) with a 15:22 clocking. Senior John Ryerson, the Bulls’ distance leader during the indoor season, gradually lost contact with the leaders and finished in second place against Geneseo but out of the money in the Fredonia time was Ryerson’s scoring. 15:52. Fredonia's relays best In the final event of the day, a Buffalo foursome comprised of Willjs, Dole, Hines, and Schifflvr " formed a mile relay team which defeated Geneseo with a time of 3:41. Although exceptional relay turned in by the Hulls never seriously threatened the lead of teams. To 1 redonia’s relay performances were Willis and Dole, 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 11 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 anyway 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. ,how. sent ret is forever. A diamond.pacific rings (enlarged for detail), N Iredonia emphasize a point. wrapped up the meet with one final gesture of muscle flexing by entering not only one relay team but two additional non-scoring mile relay teams. They finished 1-2-3 over both Geneseo and Buffalo. Buffalo coach Walter Gant/, was displeased with the close loss to Geneseo. “We would have won if it hadn’t been for the high jump,” said Gantz. A small controversy developed about the high jump which may have robbed Buffalo of its first outdoor victory. The Bulls arrived at Geneseo five minutes' late but the meet was delayed over 45 minutes because of late arriving officials. However, Buffalo was told it was too late to enter the jumping event as it had already gotten underway. As if that wasn’t bad enough the event apparently was conducted without the customary official opening height as the first place claimed by Geneseo was only 5’4” and the third place was a mere 4’. “Four teet! You can walk over four feet!" fumed team Ga n tz member commented,' “Probably half the guys on the team could have won the jump today if they’d only let us compete. The Bulls will he shooting for their first outdoor win this Saturday when they lace Albany and at Binghamton Binghamton. The team might not win but it is expected to be a much stronger squad as star sprinters Joe Woroby and Paul Kubicki may rejoin the team along wllli distance man Mark Kybinski and a new fresh man pole vaulter.

Those students on board contract who missed meals during the blizzard will receive them free on a “meal for meal” basis, according to Donald Bozek, Assistant Director of Food Service. During the final week of school, those students on board who wish to take advantage of the plan will receive a discounted per-meal rate, at the following prices: breakfast $1.50, lunch $2.25, dinner $2.95. A slightly higher rate will be offered to students who are not on board: breakfast $1.75, lunch $2.40 and dinner $3.15. - - — — — - Delia opposed plan Student Association President Dennis Delia questioned the fairness of the plan, pointing out that students had signed a contract which provided for meals for the entire semester “to run concurrently with the academic calendar.” Delia asserted that if the academic calendar were extended, under the | 2351 ‘Sheridan Dr. 99c SPECIAL of the Week! agreement, Food Service should comply. Len Snyder of Facilities and Planning countered by explaining that Food Service is unable to receive federal aid, and therefore cannot be subsidized. “We feel that this is something that is fair we can’t just give food away for free,” Snyder said. Edward Doty, Vice-President for Finance and Management, backed him up: “While we have no desire to make money, we have no ability to lose it either,” stated Doty. Delia seemed sympathetic to those arguments, but nevertheless maintained that the losses caused by the storm should be shared by FSA as well as the students. A motion calling for a fifty percent reduction in the prices levied on these meals was called to a vote. The motion was defeated by a flve-to-nothing margin. The only voting student member present at the meeting was a representative from Millard Fillmore College, a constituency not really affected by the situation. A second motion was made to accept the program as Food Service officials originally proposed. This motion was carried unanimously when called to a vote. Delia hinted at the possibility of active student resistance to the plan which might result in a stodent boycott of Food Service units during this final week. the summer by The during Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc Offices are located at 355 Norton Hall, State University of New York at Buffalo, 3435 Main St., Buffalo, NY. 14214 Telephone: 17161 831-4113.

The President felt that a rebate at this time would fuel inflation and also was no longer necessary to stimulate what he has seen as a lagging economy when he assumed office. Carter, who in his presidential campaign promised to take some substantive action to stimulate the economy, abandoned the rebate plans in the midst of heavy opposition from congressional and business leaders. The president also abandoned his proposal for several tax credits to stimulate business investment activity. Carter had proposed tax credits for new investment and additional tax incentive for the creation of new jobs by business firms. The day of the President’s announcement stock prices rose sharply in what was some of the heaviest .trading of the yea r, in definitive approval of the change in presidential plans. The bond markets also showed renewed streftgth as prices rose while interest fell. Investors interpreted the move by the administration to be an indication that there would be a cut in deficit spending and that therefore the federal government would not have to borrow so heavily in the next few months. This would allow commercial borrowers money for expansion at lower rates of interest, because of the increased availability of money. Economic basis In spite of the strict opposition the rebate would have faced in the Senate, the President emphasized that the decision was made on a sheerly economic basis. With the exception of the stock market, every leading economic indicator was on the rise in recent weeks. He felt the approximately $10 billion generated by the rebate to be not only superflous, but, in all probability, inflationary. Economists have argued that the $50 rebate would not substantially increase consumer spending on the more expensive consumer durables, like automobiles and color television. The rebate would have severely hurt the credit situation, these same economists argued, because of the increase it would bring to the government’s high level of deficit spending. One of the most vocal opponents to the rebate plan was th(j powerful chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank, Arthur Burns, who Carter will have the option of reappointing in two years. Burns felt the injection of so much money into the economy MFC jobs available Paying jobs in Millard Fillmore College (MFC) Student Course and Teacher Evaluation (SCATE) program will be available this week.

Carter had initially proposed the rebate because he felt it would help those who were “most in need.” It would have provided an increase in the purchasing ability of those in the lower income groups, those people who orginarily would spend the highest portion of additional income of any group in the nation. There was even approval of Carter’s move by economists representing some of the interests that would initially benefit the most from the rebate program. A spokesman for one of the nation’s leading retailers said last week that while it would have a temporary impact with increases would in sales, a move of have no real lasting effects. Many retailers were not happy with the President’s decision to yield to the anti-inflation forces. Many, in the northeast, which was' particularly hard-hit by winter said the move . indicated that business would be less likely to move ahead and that this could hinder industrial production. However, according to a recent Federal Reserve report, industrial production made its largest monthly gain of the past 18 months last Marcfi, further supporting the President’s decision. > jlf’S Ha|r7 at * j Palmer’s Beauty Salon 3124 Main St. • STYLE • • (nextto UNISEX - ; - PRECISION • J LAYER CUTS STYLING TO SUIT YOUR BUDGET! jCall for appointment please : laundromat): - • i 20% OFF j MULTIDISCIPLINARY CENTER FOR THE STUDY OF AGING . i DR.

This action did little to jeopardize the company’s standing as one of America’s giant corporations In 1975 alone, J.P.

Committee decision upheld SASU election ruled valid despite > The higher court of the Student Wide Judiciary has overturned its lower court’s invalidation of the recent SASU election and deemed the results “valid and standing.” The election had been protested by Michael Schwartz and Alan Stein, both of whom were unsuccessful candidates in the election. Their complaint concerned the malfunctioning of several voting booths The protest was orgininally heard by the Elections and Credentials Committee (E & C) which turned down their request and declared the election valid. Schwartz and Stein appealed that decision to the Student Wide Judiciary. The three member panel upheld the protest and invalidated the election despite the strong counter arguments by former Student Association (SA) President Steve Schwartz and Student Affairs Coordinator Lee Peres. Schwartz and Peres argued that due to the lopsided result of the election, the voting irregularity did not affect the outcome. E & C in turn appealed that decision to the higher court of the Student Wide Judiciary. In a memorandum issued subsequent to the decision, the court claimed the most important questions was “whether or not the administrative body of experts known as the SAE & C had incorrectly adjudged the proceedings or had overstepped their boundries.” The court ruled the SAE & C decision was “both just and within the spectrum of* their jurisdiction.” The court’s decision has precluded the necessity of a second SASU election, which according to some estimates could have cost as much as $700.

Bass Hark Page Editor Graduating seniors will find job vseeking less pressured, for the first rime since 1970, according to a College Placement Council survey in the Wall Street reported College Journal. Placement Offices are overburdened with interviewers who are trying to speak with possible candidates. Due to the recession, college hiring has been obstructed in recent years. But the survey found corporations now want to fill the gaps by hiring 33-1/3 percent to 200 percent more graduates than in previous years. The College Placement recently Council that job offers to bachelor’s degree students at 160 colleges are up 49 percent from last year. According. survey to a the College conducted , by Placement Council, engineering graduates encompass 47 percent of the jobs on the market, but constitute only 5 percent of all bachelor’s degrees. They are in highest demand on the job market, and their starting salaries are being increased 5 percent per month. The starting salaries for civil and petroleum engineers reported 4 10 percent. to mechanical, industrial engineers and chemical will constitute 80 percent of all of increase Electrical, Bethlehem Steel’s new recruits, accounting while sales and will positions make up the remainder. This will increase their hired new graduates 100 percent from last year. Other businesses also hopes to meet their quota of engineers. General Motors Corp. is trying to reach their goal by increasing its number of hired college graduates a third. nearly International Business Machines Corp. intends to recruit 75 percent more than last year. Digital Equipment Corp. is boosting hiring 200 percent. Second in demand on the job market are business, accounting, science and other technically trained collegians. The survey reports that accounting and auiditing jobs cover 25 percent of the available jobs this year. There is also a 53 percent increase in demand for business graduates and 51 percent increase for scientists over last year. The Bank America Corp. has increased their hiring goal by 55 percent for business students. Starting salaries have also risen in accordance with the increase in demand. Computer scientists are receiving 2 to 5 percent more, while business'grads are getting 3 to 4 percent more. Arthur Andersen & Co., one of the big eight accounting firms,- boosted their starting salaries. Liberal-arts majors may also find job hunting a bit easier. Businesses are looking for them to fill sales and management-training positions. There is a projected percent increase of 8 for nontechnical jobs, which is the first positive improvement since .1973. ‘ SPEED READING COURSE TO BE TAUGHT IN BUFFALO/NIAGARA FALLS The New England Reading Lab is offering their famous speed course to a limited reading number of qualified people here in the Buffafo/Niagara Falls area. person average The who completes this course can read 10 and faster, with times substantially comprehension improved and better concentration famous course has taught many: thousands of people to read over 1000 words per minute with the ability to understand and retain what they have read much Average effectively. more graduates can read most novels in less than one hour.

Page seven �Guest Opinion EditPrial Support University workers This University's Civil Service Employees will go on strike today, according to the latest available information. The major reason is that New York State workers have not had a pay raise since 1974, a year when the inflation rate rocketed to twelve percent. Instead of attempting to make up for this drop in living standards, the State has demanded several contract concessions in return for a pathetic ten percent increase over two years. Obviously this cannot keep pace with the expected increases in the purchase price of the average market basket. In this, a period of campus retrenchment, not only has each budget over the past three years had fewer support and service lines for a growing University, but in an effort to force economies, the State has converted vacated positions from twelve month jobs to ten month seasonals. This has in effect given fewer employees more work responsibilities, even as salaries have been rapidly eroded by inflation. The $250 bonus given to CSEA members last year should be interpreted as little more than an insult. In the past it was assumed that civil servants had at least security in their positions, if nothing else. In taking that away, we feel the State government must do something to properly compensate its workers. This University's workers have the right to a decent wage. We hope that union picket lines will be respected, and that anger at the inconveniences caused by the strike will be directed not at the workers, but at an unfeeling and intransigent State government. Our daily bread Board contract students may be faced with a surprise expense before the academic year draws to a close. Food Service and its parent organization, the Faculty Student Association, have approved plans to charge students on board contract for meals served during the extension of the school year, made necessary by the storm of '77. Students who signed a board contract to save money are now being told that their contract does not cover the entire semester, and that Food Service, an organization that operates such seemingly lucrative ventures as a pub and a pizza shop, is now going to charge for any food consumed past a given date. We think it's unfair. The current board contract says it will extend over a semester, and we think Food Service ought to abide by it. The Spectrum Monday, 18 April 1977 Editor in-Chief — Food Day activities are a series of events that probably most of us have some preconception about. Those of us who are health freaks may think of nutrition with all its derivatives, vitamins, and balanced diets. Mother Earth diehards are reminded of gardens with all kinds of good'vegetables and fruits. Some, but not vegetarians, conceptualize a Food Day workshop where students learn a recipe of taking an economically-priced piece of poultry with a variety of leftovers and creating a spread to which the ‘galloping gourmet’ would sit up and take notice. For others, this day brings to mind the hunger of a small child, mentally retarded from an inadequate diet. For some of us there is another aspect which a Food Day program could possibly present to the public. All of us are familiar with this idea to some degree. After all it is-the hunger in our stomahs that tell our minds it is time to tie on the feed bag. On a broader scale it is hunger in many forms that motivates us to action. Generally we students are in the University to satisfy our need to achieve goals. We could also be motivated by the desire to satisfy the wishes of our parents, or perhaps by taking the opportunity to finding answers to questions this world has presented us. Throughout history, hunger has been used to represent a need or desire that someone has. In many has been explanations, hunger religious representative of the human desire for something spiritual. Food has symbolized the solution to dreams. The hunger for more, greed, has given justification for endless wars. Empires have flourished due to their ability to feed their people. Like-wise they have fallen when they could not feed them. Some of us believe that in conjunction with Food Day we must realize we are much too dependent Indignation or manipulation? To the Editor. Vol. 27, No. 74 upon others in this world to ignore them. We may not see nor understand our world the way we would like but it is our duty to search beyond our own horizons and try to recognize the hate, the fear, and the beauty of other people. A few of us have chosen to spend time fasting, as a symbolic gesture to better understand the hunger only some of us can escape. For what little time we can spend, maybe one day, we will use our energies not to digest food but to think beyond our horizons. The fast is not intended to be a publicized event beyond this article. There, will not be people with big buttons or signs, screaming out “I am a faster!” We will not take our pennies that would otherwise be spent on meals and send them away to some aid program. Those kinds of activities all have their place. However, our aim is to see more about ourselves so that when we see others we will see them in a different light. When we go to the workshops, such as the one put on by the Lajeche League, we will better see the nutrition requirements necessary for a mother to provide her child with a healthy diet through breast-feeding. While attending the programs presetted by the internationM students we will better understand when they talk to us about the problems of population and hunger around the world. Maybe we can realize the problems of population and hunger around the world. Maybe we can realize our misconceptions about the world. So someday, if not today, we will be able to contribute solutions to its problems. We will not attempt to be a mottled group of saints seeking salvation. Those of us who like beer will no doubt tip a couple cool ones next Saturday night. Those who are meat eaters will probably be thinking of a juicy steak drowned in mushrooms. That is human nature and after all we are human. We can not ignore ourselves because we must realize that we understand others only to the extent which we are capable of knowing ourselves. by the Food Action Committee Richard Korman Laura Bartlett Managing Editor Fredda Cohen Managing Editor Jerry L. Hodson Advertising Manager Business Manager Janet Leary I am -a sophomore attehcTtng the State University of New York at Buffalo. In my two years attendance at U.B.

These things are a believe that this was the extent of the physical education facilities at U.B.!! The building is totally inadequate in terms of size and equipment. After doing a small amount of investigating, I discovered that there are definite plans for a new physical education complex. It will be a beautifully spacious and very practical facility. The only problem seems to be getting it built! What appears to be the case is those individuals who have the pull do not seem to think the students at U.B. require a more complete physical education facility.

Monday 18 April T977 In a recent conversation with a Communication major at this University, I learned some interesting facts which 1 consider my duty (as a student) to share with the other students of this school. The student I spoke with described to me an assignment for a class entitled “Theories of Persuasion.” It is a class project in which groups of students are to design strategies and tactics to promote a campaign for issues which they create; to get the student body and media involved and active in these campaigns for the sole purpose of testing their own effectiveness as “persuaders.” In effect, using each person on this campus (student, faculty and staff) as guinea pigs for their experiments with “persuasive techniques.” The non-issues which are being planned right now include the contraversy of an armed CampUs Police. The Campus Security are definitely not going to bear arms but we could all use our paranoia injections around Finals time, right? And why not become involved in the rallies planned by another group .to get the plans for the “New Gym” under construction, and sign petitions for it to be sent to “Albany?” Both of these issues would be worthwhile getting involved in if they were real. But that is the point, they are being created for us by some mongers of mind manipulation. So U.B., Be Aware. And Dept, of Communication, how about Theories of Ethics” on your Fall 77 curriculum.

While the cause in which he now speaks, the thorough-going revision of the S.A. to the exclusion of the pork barrel and subservience, is just, it is not the subject of this letter. A statewide organizing effort is being made by the Red Balloon, an on and off campus political group around N.Y. State to bring people to awareness of and to a Civil Disobedience-oriented demonstration 40 miles north of Boston at Seabrook, N.H. Seabrook is the site of one of many nuclear reactors being forced on dying communities, promising jobs and commerce. Unfortunately it also promises nuclear insecurity and if allowed by a community, demonstrates complicity with past and present administrative policies of a foolhardy nature. Playing with nature is the oldest trick in the capitalist bag. After all, the owners and builders and policymakers and those who will most profit by fission energy usually live hundreds of miles away from the sites they choose. They are not fools. The Red Balloon is urging people to rome to this demonstration on April 30th and will conduct C D. training sessions in N.Y.C. and Buffalo. But we are asking people to come with a slightly different analysis of what’s going on than the major sponsors “The Clamshell.” We put forward the.demand that jobs be created in non-socially destructive forms of energy and research in fields like fusion power which is largely unexplored be established where formerly there were only Seabrooks.

Further, the “X” grade may label a person as a lazy academician but it is by far a better label than that of failure. If the V„A. continues this policy, the Student/Veteran will be at a great disadvantage, not only in the area of academic success, but for future vocational goals as well. I therefore recommend that the V.A. concentrate on delivering the entitlement and providing services to aid Student/Veterans in maintaining academic credibility. Further 1 urge Student/Veterans who find themselves in academic or personal conflict to seek out the services available to them, both by the University and by the OVA. mu i pi; Policy frustrates vets To the Editor. The Veterans Administration’s recent move to accord punitive action to Student/Veterans for accepting “R,” “I,” and “X” grades stands as policy that frustrates the purpose of the V.A. Benefits and forces the Student/Veteran into an unfair position in academic and vocational competition. The V.A. Benefits are described by Financial Aid as an entitlement. Making this entitlement conditional in this way prevents the entitlee from being able to rely on this income. The V.A. thus has taken a parental position, stating, in effect, that the veteran is -not adult enough to manage their own lives or control their destiny. This attitude is an insult to all that present day veterans stand for in their minds and the minds of the nation.

Not $1000, not $100, not even $2. Just one buck, one greenback. But we won, and don’t ever forget it. We cruised into our local Super Duper clutching our Gamerama card, all six of us, to demand our bounty. We fantasized that Joey would be on hand to pay us in person, but we had to settle for some high school girl who posed as a cashier after hours. Next we had to split the dollar up. For those who left their calculators recharging at home, one dollar cannot be equally divided six ways without splitting pennies. “I think the person who brought in the most tickets should get the most money,” said Van. This came as no surprise, since Van had brought in the most tickets. So, amidst objections by Barry and Steve who brought in the fewest, this idea was dropped. We instead decided to flip for it, and in the great tradition of the Stanley Cup, we set up as complicated a tournament as possible. There would be three preliminary'rounds to start, best of three flips. Since Van brought in the most tickets he would have the’home ice advantage of “calling it in the air” against Barry, who brought in the least. Radar got the home edge against Steve, and I got the home edge against Dan. After all the logistics were worked out (game sites, designated coin flippers, etc.) the games got underway. 1, of course, knocked off Dan 3-0, scoring on a head and a tail, and then another head. Steve beat Radar 2-1, using two tails for his two wins. Van rolled over Barry 2-1, scoring otv two heads, while losing to Barry’s tail. Since Dan had the worst record in the preliminary round, he was immediately eliminated from further competiton (he was seen later in his room, teary-eyed and red-faced). I, being the big winner, earned a bye in the next round, leaving matchups between Van and Radar and Steve and Barry. From here on, best-of-sevens were the rule, and it was no surprise when Radar used 6 tails to beat Van 4-2 in the first round. Steve disposed of Barry in five rounds, going tail-head-head-head-tail, and losing only with his head in the third flip. In any case, that left Steve, Radar, and me in the semifinals. A three way round-robin tournament ensued, with the top two finishers to meet in the finals (Radar suggested that we go right to the finals, with himself taking heads, me taking (aits, and leaving the side of the coin for Steve. But somehow his idea never got off the drawing board.). In the first best-of-seven, Steve beat me 4-3, closing with three wins on consecutive tails. Radar also beat me 4-3, ruining a three point head-tail-head comeback by me. So, the finals came down to Radar and Steve. I went upstairs but only after denting all the Red and White cans in the house. The finals were a rout for Steve. He used tail-head-tail and tail for a 4-0 sweep and the championship. Cheering madly, he went over to the table to pick up his prize money -that bright, new silver dollar which the girls from Super Duper had given us. But something happend. Steve couldn’t pick up the dollar. He started gnawing at it with his teeth. He had to have it. He broke all his fingernails trying to pick it up, but it wouldn’t budge. He was still trying to pick it up when I left to write all this, and'I bet he’ll still be there when I get back.

Monday, 18 April 1977 . The Spectrum . Page nine �TRB He slipped in quietly, unannounced, and before we knew if or could rise in the usual courtesy gesture of the press for the President, was standing behind the lectern in the White House briefing room. Mr. Carter said he had a couple of announcements to make and would answer “a few questions.” Close to him. like that. I notice how ruddy his face is, how worn and lined, how different at close range from the caricaturists’ stereotype; there is a quiet, agreeable directness; no toothy grin at all. His face always reminds me somehow of Eleanor Roosevelt’s. There’s a lot of determination in it, not to say obstinacy. This is about the three months' point where the real administration of a new president begins. The public likes a new president; there's always a post-election elation over a new figure, a period of symbolic gestures—a general feeling of, closing ranks round the new elected king. The penalty of all the power we pile on a president is that it normally promotes a counter desire to destroy him; we haven't reached that stage yet. The present stage is that Mr. Carter has got to stop grandstanding now and get down to business; he rrpist come to grips with some of his hardest domestic decisions, every one of which will alienate a section of the electorate. He's not running against the Washington .establishment now, he is the establishment; all those silly promises to cut the White House staff, to reduce the Federal Agencies from 1900 to 200. had betterbe moth-balled. He has the energy program in Congress next week, and he has the fight to get his economic package-already there and the battle to halt inflation. The real Carter administration is just beginning. This impromptu press conference was primarily about energy, in particular about international nuclear energy. Nearly everything that happens in Washington has elements of irony, sometimes laid on so thick you. can hardly bear it. Do you remember, 10 years ago. how nuclear energy was going to solve the fuel problem? In 1966 a report in the Wall Street Journal carried forecasts that there would be “almost limitless supplies of power from nuclear plants, expected eventually to be the cheapest source of energy almost everywhere on the globe." Maybe in another 10 years that will be in style again. But Jimmy Carter now was warning the nations of ■the world to lay off plutonium power, and above all the breeder-reaction process, and announcing that the United States was waiving it and preparing to puts its nuclear wastes in safe storage somewhere (where they will remain lethal for thousands of years.) It just happens that fate tapped Jimmy Carter to take over the U.S. energy problem, to see if he can get America to make the sacrifices that have been made and to persuade it to change its lifestyle. His two predecessors flubbed it. Nixon said the problem was “solved:” Ford accepted the advice of the same conservative experts who brought him to election day with the biggest, longest most serious recession since 1930. It's a particularly tough problem for the President because the energy shortage isn’t immediately evident; anybody with the money can buy all the gasoline he or she wants; cost around 60 cents a gallon, half the price of gas in England. Germany and Japan, a third of that in France. So the first question is whether it’s an “emergency.” For this I offer a familiar figure bending seriously over a table before,the Senate energy committee recently; a man with a slight accent, Henery Kissinger. He’s accepted the chairmanship of the “Alliance to Save Energy” and he appeared to testify looking sober, serious and weighty, without the slightest touch of his customary wit and humor. If you can stand a few statistics, here’s what he said: with only six percent of thex world’s four billion people the U.S. now consumes one-third of its energy (yes. a third)., A U.S. citizen uses eight times more energy a year than his world neighbor. Projected trends indicates reserves of oil and natural gas will run out by AD 2000 with prices already quintupled. He quoted planners as saying that “at least 40 percent of the U.S. energy consumed in 1975 could have been saved through improved operating and Sub-Board I, Inc. ,main(£MQC£ efficiencies. And he called it solemnly, the most critical'challenge facing the U.S. today. Henry Kissinger is only a stage prop for the battle now beginning, the real question is whether the new American president, as a leader, can lead. Can he spend his newly accumulated popularity for national objectives in Congress and buy them at the right price? This includes his economic objectives, his anti-inflation package, his labor tax. ti}riff proposals and all the rest of it. I have anotion he can, if he’s careful, and if h6 abandons any idea he may have of a confrontation with the Democratic majority in Congress and of “appealing over its head” to the public. His jow now isn’t confrontation: it’s compromise, persuasion and guileful strategy. The real test of Mf., Carter is beginning. So far as he has gone the President strikes me as being a middle-of-the-road moderate with occasional surprising populist overtones and an incalcuable penumbra of Bible Belt moralism. Whether the latter is an asset or a liability remains to be seen. So far he has gone just far enough to encourage the liberals, and held back just far enough to please the conservatives. Howjlifficult he is to forecast was shown in the Moscow SALT proposals where the die-hard hawks led by Sen. Henry Jackson first emotionally denounced, then praised, negotiator Paul Warnke. Actually, U appears Mr. Carter offered the Russians extremely toughtterms, for good or ill. On the energy crisis we think Mr. Carter is going to throw everything he has into explaining to the public the fix we’re in and what he proposes to do about it and how he plans to equalize the inevitable sacrifices. If he’s not tough enough he may see the American energy joy ride go over the cliff; if he’s too tough he can bring back recession. America’s undisciplined lifestyle is in transition; the 70-mile-an-hour highway, and the 70 degree home, are on their way out it appears.

The Spectrum Monday, 18 April 1977 . , — �Frankensteim? Committee examing genetic experiments Will genetic engineering become the boon or bane of (CPS) mankind? Are scientists opening a pandora’s box of future horros? Or will the world someday draw from a gene bank, similar to author Robert Heinlein’s thoughts of a future age? The international Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU), prompted by the thought of modem-day Frankensteins, recently established a committee to monitor the development of many types of controversial genetic reserach. Called the Committee on Genetic Reserach (COGENE), it is designed to serve as a non-governmental, interdisciplinary source of advice for scientists around the world who are interested in genetic research. The committee will also serve as a watchdog to guard against research it feels does not have adequate safeguards. Although it has no legal authority itself, the committee will try to thwart wayward scientists by publicizing their research or even by seeking legislative curbs. At a recent symposium held at the California State University at Chico, panelists argued whether the benefits of genetic research outweighs the risk involved! Doctor Michael Abruzzo, a teacher of human genetics, pointed out one of the more terrifying aspects of hew genetic creations, a bacteria which, after a round of manipulation, could be immune to any controls and escape from a laboratory, infecting the human population. — Ethical questions One the other hand, Abruzzo defended future research by saying that it one day could lead to such benefits as a cure for cancer. He told the audience that it was now scientifically possible to transfer genes from one organism to another. However, he does not anticipate any attempts to develop total human beings, completely engineered by genetics. Questions of the ethical, legal and political spectrums were raised during the discussion with no concrete answers. What are human beings on the way to becoming? What are the public’s rights to protection from scientific research? Should we put a check on hospitals, universities and private firms,presently active in genetic reserach? COGENE may, in the course of its analysis of genetic research, touch upon these questions. Committee organizers indicate they favor continuation of research and stress it will be objective in studying genetic engineering’s hazards and effects. Two years ago, American scientists called for a moratorium on one recombinant DNA research so that the form of genetic inquiries involved could be and national established. In analyzed guidelines risks June, the National Institutes of Health issued the guidelines that banned certain types of research involving hazardous organisms. It also called for strict safeguards for laboratories. However, these guidelines only apply to those operations supported by the federal government. — — Patrick clashes with courts by Carol O’Connor and Helaine Lasky (CPS) Ted Patrick, a middle-aged man who specializes in “deprogramming” young religious converts for fees ranging from $1000—$3500, was ordered March 27 to pay a $1000 fine and to finally serve out at least part of a suspended one-year jail term. “This is a case where an individual has sought to take the law into his own hands,” Judge Zita — — — Weinshienk of Denver District Court said as she sentenced Patrick before a courtroom sparsely filled with reporters, photographers, some members of the Hare Krishna sect and about ten other “interested” people. “If Patrickfeels the law isn’t proper, his recourse isn’t to do as he has done but to get the legislature to change the law,” Weinshienk instructed. His sentencing stems from an April 1974 trial in Denver in which Patrick was convicted of a misdemeanor charge of false imprisonment of two young women who weren’t following their parents’ Greek Orthodox beliefs. The two women are Seventh Day Adventists today. Patrick received a suspended one-year jail term and a suspended $1000 fine with the condition that he not engage in any more deprogramming. HOwever, while still on probation from Denver, Patrick was convicted in Orange County, California, of false imprisonment of a 19-year-old Hare Krishna member. -Although the California Court only sentenced him to 60 days for the offense, Patrick volunteered to spend additional time in jail there under the belief that he would be owrking off his Colorado sentence. ' , Opportunism The absolute maximum amount of time Patrick wilj spend in jail in Colorado is 144 days since Weinshienk chose to give him “credit” for the time he served in California on a work-release program. While being escorted to the Denver County jail, reporters onlookers, Patrick told and “Deprogramming is legal and if pressure hadn’t been put on the district attorney and the courts in this state, 1 wouldn’t have been convicted.” When asked if he would continue his deprogramming efforts once he was released, Patrick quickly answered, “Yes.” Greta Heiser, Colorado director of the Alliance for the Preservation of Religious Liberties, was disappointed with the sentencing. Her group had sent letters to Judge Weinshienk urging that Patrick serve the maximum sentence allowable. She likened Patrick to “an opportunist preying on the fears and uncertainties of parents concerned with the welfare of their children . . . what most people don’t realize is that there are cases of deprogrammers getting ahold of people to deprogram them out of Judaism and Catholicism.” Torture tactics She angrily branded Patrick’s deprogramming techniques as “the same techniques used on American servicemen during the Korean War,” and then cited a statement Patrick made March 12 in San Diego, Calif., in which he said “If people do chanting we don’t allow them to chant. If people do meditating we don’t allow them to meditate. If their religion involves a Bible we take the Bible away.” People “deprogrammed” by Patrick have indicated that his tactics also involve sleep deprivation, the denial.of food and drink as well as physical and verbal abuse. In a sworn affidavit, David Hauswirth, 26, an Old Catholic priest, stated, “1 was harassed for 13 or more hours per day about my religious beliefs and not permitted to sleep on various occasions when I wanted sleep. I was not permitted to perform any worship.” Hauswirth states that he was threatened with “commitment to a mental institution if I did not cooperate and renounce my religion.” The 19-year-old Hare Krishna member, Joanne Bradley, who brought charges against Patrick and his deprogrammers in Orange County, Calif., that resulted in his second conviction confirms that Patrick’s tactics are designed to promote fear. “Grabbing me and throwing me against the wall gave me bruises all over my body. Using foulest language imaginable and condemning believers in God, they told me over and over again that they would keep me until 1 was forced to eat meat (against her beliefs), have sex, take drugs and learn to gamble,” she told the court in a sworn statement. Drawing the line “They treated me like an animal. When I told tm I was pregnant they were merciless and didn’t care, saying that I must stay there with them,” her statement continues. Patrick has been banned from Canada for his efforts there to deprogram a Catholic. A former member of Ronald Regan’s task force on Watts, Patrick is proud of his nickname “Black Lightning” and describes himself as a “Black fundamentalist Christian,” who only wants to help parents and children unite. In an angry letter to the Queens County District Attorney, The New York Civil Liberties Union, questions what criteria should be used for determining who should be deprogrammed. “And (would what about political activity? prosecutorial intervention have been justified) against the Youth International Party in 1968, if Jerry Rubin’s parents or Abby Hoffman’s parents had complained to your office about the behavior of their offspring? Do you think Charles Colson’s parents might have a legitimate complaint about their son’s radical religious conversion following the Watergate scandal? Do you think it is possible that he was brainwashed?” As the sheriffs escorted Patrick through the darkened halls at the Denver City and County building, one Hare Krishna devotee turned to a reported and said, “You know the Hare Krishnas have never done anything to harm him. Isn’t there a better way for the man to ijjake a living?” ... Horror stories To promote safety techniques in the field of DNA research, COGENE will offer training and education programs in the U.S. and Western Europe. A professor of biochemistry from the University of Spend this HUB a. Miami pointed to the need for such a program by saying that DNA reserachers do not require elaborate facilities to conduct experiments and are not adequately trained in safety techniques. New York Tech... Although some, frightened by science fiction-type horror stories, would like to see all research stopped, members of ICSU feel that this extremely important work ought to go on. “We all feel that this is a field of great promise for the future,” one member said.

Here at When thel Buffalo Lacrosse Buffalo it has gained popularity Club opens up its home schedule over the past few years. today against Monroe Community College (Rotary Field, 3 pm), a Score not indicative In the Bulls’ opening game key factor in the Bulls’ success will be their experience. With this against Oswego on Saturday, the year’s lineup returning almost stick handlers were defeated 14-3, entirely intact from last year, it’s but the game indeed was much a sure bet that this will be the closer than the score suggests.

When the third quarter PasSer. Other returnees include ended, Oswego still had not pulled Frank Massaro, Steve Hackling, Rolland Garrow, George Talboys, Jack Simon, Herb Roisman, Rich Morgan, Jeff Reiss and Don Lund. The lacrosse Bulls’ biggest asset is their togetherness and team play. The sticksters work as one cohesive and anyone unit associated with the University is eligible to participate. Since lacrosse is a club sport rather than a varsity sport, there is a very relaxed atmosphere surrounding the team. Practices are fun but they are indeed mandatory. away from the determined Bulls. Oswego led 7-3 as Garrow scored Buffalo’s lone goal of the period. It was only because of club policy that the final score was inflated so much. For the last and final period Hanson cleared his bench and everyone on the squad got their chance to play. So for three full periods the sticksters played very well against a stronger Oswego varsity team. Goalie Talboys looked impressive with 38 saves. “We definitely scared them,” said senior Roisman. He added, “Knowing that we played that well during the first half, I think we can go undefeated the rest of the season.” Revised finals schedule The final exam schedule for the spring semester has been slightly modified. Final exams will be held Thursday, May 19, through Thursday, May 26. The dates May 19 and 20 were previously reserved for reading days, but various constituencies of the University have agreed that the exams should begin the day after the final day of regular classes.

Practice makes perfect there Currently, are twenty-five players on the team’s roster and the sticksters’ goal for the season is to have everyone play in each and every game. But of course playing time is contingent upon practices. One facet of the Bulls’ schedule will be their competition against both club and varsity-oriented schools. Sporting a seven game schedule, the sticksters will be taking on the likes of Monroe Community College, Niagara University, Oswfego State, Eisenhower College and the Kenmore Lacrosse Club. Lacrosse is a game of quickness and agility. Similar to hockey, it is a hard-hitting contact sport. With ten players manning the field (3 midfielders, 3 attackrhen, 3 defensemen and a goalie), only the midfielders are able to roam the field freely. Substitutions for the midfielders are made while the ball is in play, similar to front lines in hockey. The object of lacrosse is to Score more goals thSn your opponent. This is achieved by a strong running and passing attack, by use of long thin sticks with nets attached to them. A fundamental quality which all good lacrosse players master is the picking up of ground balls. This is essential in lacrosse if a team is to win The game is also broken down into four 15 minute periods of non-stop running. Originally conceived by the Iroquois Indians, lacrosse has The villain behind this time significantly retarding destruction is friction.

Believe it or not, they had never seen gum or shorts before. Many of their wrestlers were in the army and while they laughed at our shorts we kidded them about their brush haircuts.” The two teams competed in an outdoor arena where thousands of people had gathered. Anderson conceded that ‘the trip was worthwhile because he had never been to a communist country before and because the trip enabled him to meet some “good friends.” But the most important notion Anderson brought back from Bulgaria Was that, “I appreciated America more.” And what about Buffalo’s wrestling squad next year? “There will be an upturn next year; we can’t miss. We have so much talent there’ll be very few if any weak spots,” he said. “The guys on the team are refined and they are the nicest bunch of guys we’ve ever had.” Anderson concluded, “It has been great competing against the nation’s top schools. We’re always knocking on the Top Twenty door; next year we’ll close the door behind us.” But there are many aspects about this University which has soured him. With a trace of sarcasim Anderson stated that the University is run more like a business than a place of higher learning. He equates the campus to a factory where “people come and go, and are never seen again.” Anderson also expressed his concern about the students at this University. “It’s good to be united, but the people here have no community spirit. They don’t anything., k’s come to unfortunate but most people have no interest in anyone but themselves.” Anderson further added that “it hurts, because people here argue over petty things. People dwell upon the negative when there are a lot of good things happening at this University. A lot of good just isn’t seen,” he added. Besides being the Bulls’ top grappler, Anderson is also reknowned After nationally. placing third in the United States Junior World Freestyle Wrestling Championships last year, he toured Bulgaria last summer.

HFA slow in getting to Amherst financier Although prospects for local banks to purchase the $3 million in short-term notes required to resume Amherst construction “look promising,” the Housing Finance Agency (HFA) has been late in sending lists of agreement terms to the banks, delaying a final decision. Last month HFA was given the responsibility of drawing up and sending formal financing proposals to the banks. Though banks had expected to receive their terms by March 30, which would have enabled them to announce a final decision by April 8, communications from the HFA to the banks have reportedly come on or after the second April 8 deadline. Marine Midland Vice President Donald Cielewich indicated his bank had received word as late as April 11. Andrew Craig, President of M&T said he also had been notified “within the last few days.” These and other banks have been holding internal meetings to decide whether the bonds are a good investment, but the decision process has been hampered because bank officials were without a complete list of HFA’s agreement terms. Officials have been forced at certain points to call Albany to clarify their position. The marketing of $3 million in bonds in the Buffalo area is a prerequisite for an additional $13 million to be released on the State level. The State Division of Budget (DOB), which markets all State bonds, imposed the April 8 target date for a final decision in hopes that all future State construction bonds would be floated simultaneously Amherst bonds included. One administrator here said, “This being the case, we don’t have much time left.” “This delay is not the fault of the banks,” said University President Robert Ketter. “It’s a result of HFA being lackadaisical.” Ketter also said that since this University must secure local support the State floats its bonds, and before the construction season begins, time is running out on chances for financing new Amherst building, this year. “We’re pushing our luck if we don’t break ground soon,” said Ketter. He indicated HFA Has been recently contacted and urged “to get on the stick.” -Tom Batt ‘ r — Revolution lecture Dr. Paul Devendidos will lecture on the American Revolution this Monday at 8 p.m. in the Norton Conference Theatre. “Revolutionary The Case of the American Expectations Revolution” will comparatively detail the nature of revolution. — Page two The Spectrum . .

Student Association (SA) President Dennis Delia and Men’s Athletic Director Ed Muto are currently trying to secure funding for the program from the University of Buffalo Foundation. In the past, the status of the athletic budget was a subject of debate and uncertainty. But last month, SA passed an amendment which guarantees a fixed amount of money to the Athletic Department over the next four years. It is believed the four-year commitment to athletics will give the Athletic Department enough stability to earn the support of the UB Foundation. It was suspected that the Foundation did not want to make a large commitment to a program whose existence from year to year could not be guaranteed. Delia and members have met several times already and are scheduled to meet again next week. It is possible that an announcement regarding the status of football could be made as early as April 21 at the University’s athletic banquet. Low-level start Buffalo would compete on a Division III level, the lowest NCAA level. Canisius College also competes on the Division III level, while Niagara University supports a club team. Scheduling for next year could be a problem, since most schools make their athletic schedules two years in advance. However, Oswego recently dropped their football program, creating some openings on which Buffalo might be able to capitalize. Another problem Buffalo might face is the condition of the stands at Rotary Field. The West stands (closest to Clark Hall) were declared unsafe last year. The east stands, which seat approximately G.OOO- people. are still useable. Still another obstacle that would have to be resolved is the lack of locker room space. Clark - Gerry Philbin A COLLEGE RING. It’s a symbol for life Hall’s locker room is quite small, and the visitor’s locker room is definitely not big enough for a 40-man football team. One of the reasons football was dropped as a varsity sport in 1970 was that it had grown to Ipe too large, and was crowding some of the other sports out of Clark Hall. Uniforms, coaches available The uniforms and equipment from that last team were kept and are still available for use. The University would also be able to find a coach right on its own staff, thereby reducing the need of paying another coach. The most often mentioned possibility is moving golf coach Bill Dando to head football coach. Dando is the only remaining coach from the 1970 University of Buffalo football staff (he was linebacker coach) and was also head,football coach at John Carroll University. If Dando heads the football team, Muto will probably take over as golf goach. • Nothing specific has been determined about assistant coaches, although again, possibilities could come out of Buffalo's current coaching staff. Football was first played at Buffalo in 1894. but was cancelled in 1903. It was reinstated in 19J5,and with the exception of the war years, remained a varsity sport until 1970.

Meetings planned to avert a CSEA strike Unless an agreement is reached on terms for a new contract at meetings scheduled for (his afternoon and over the weekend, there will be a Monday morning strike by the Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA). Board (PERB) asked The Public Relation Employee to meet this afternoon at 3 p.m. representatives of the State and CSEA in Albany. CSEA President Theodore Wenzl termed this move “last minute grandstanding” on the part of the state adding that if the state were seriously interested in sovling the dispute, the meeting would have been held yesterday instead of today. If nq settlement is reached the strikers will begin picketing at 6 a.m. Monday morning, CSEA regional spokesman Al Mrozek reported. Not only will the University be affected in the event of a strike, but so will most other state installations in the area including Roswell Park Buffalo Psychiatric Hospital, Unemployment Insurance Offices and Motor Vehicle Bureau offices. Director of State Operations Robert Moragado has already ordered department and agency heads to develop contingency plans tor maintaining services in the event of a strike. CSEA has also been conducting meetings witli its various units and departments spelling out procedures to be followed during the strike. The informational meetings should be completed by today, according to a union spokesman Wednesday Governor Carey offered some 8000 “management confidential” employees a five per cent raise. A CSEA spokesman considered the offer an “obvious ploy” designed to blunt the impact of Monday’s threatened strike. “Management confidential” employees perform jobs similar to those of the 141,000 members of CSEA, but they are not represented by the union because of the sensitive nature of their jobs. The CSEA spokesman said the governor was offering the raise to these people to induce them to man state facilities in case of a strike. Friday, 15 April 1977 .

Goldstein. by Jay Rosen Staff Writer Spectrum Fifteen hundred miles fr his New York City home, publisher A1 Goldstein stood trial in Wichita, Kansas in connection with his sleazy Screw magazine, and was convicted on eleven counts of illegally using the mail system. Screw was never sold on Kansas newstands and had only fourteen mail subscribers in the state, four of whom were postal authorities using phony names. In Wichita, there was but one legitimate subscriber. A New York postal inspector, acting on orders from the United States Justice department, sent money and subscription forms to postmasters in four Kansas towns, late in 1974. Officials there using fake names sent in the forms. When the issues arrived in sealed envelopes they were sent back to New York authorities, unopened.

No appointment necessary. How can Goldstein be prosecuted in Wichita for material which never saw the light of Kansas day? Postal officials made use of an archaic law known as the Comstock Act, which prohibits the mailing of obscene materials. The law was the work of Anthony Comstock, a nineteenth century conservative who secured its passage in 1873, and personally enforced it with a dedication that bordered on lunacy. According to Playboy magazine, Comstock “traveled the country seizing and destroying tons of books of ‘improper character’... In 1913 he boasted of having convicted 3600 persons and of having driven at least 15 to suicide.” Comstock died in 1915, in the midst of prosecuting William Sanger for mailing a family planning book.

California university turns to solar energy (CPS) At California State San Jose (SJSU), University donnitory administrator William Schooler simply got fed up with paying high utility rates. Schooler turned to Dr. Donald Aitken, head of the six-month-old SJSU Center for Solar Energy Application, for help. They came up with a pioneering plan to install solar water heating units in three SJSU residence halls. To save money and provide practical experience to students, they would create a solar workshop. Under the guidance of Aitken and grad student Jim Altman, who supervises the construction staff of 15 undergraduates, solar energy units have been built and installed on each building. In June, when the program, dubbed Sunshower,” is “Project completed, 600 students will be using hot water heated without cost by the magnification of the sun’s rays, Altman said. environmental Altman, an studies graduate student, believes the SJSU project is the largest student-built solar water-heating development ever.

Aitken hopes a successful Sunshower demonstration will encourage the university to use solar methods to heat many of the system’s buildings. officials, who University approved the Sunshower proposal of Schooler and Aitken last summer, have already taken the bait. Beyond agreeing to finance the library’s solar energy plant, the officials may extend the current plan to include another three dormitories and a 12-story residence hall at San Jose before expanding the project to other campuses.

The films, When the People Awake and To the People of the World have rapidly become “classic” films about Chile. Together they present a complete picture of what has happened in Chile since November 1970 when the Popular Unity government took power democratically and began the process of a socialist transformation in Chile. These films are also being shown the following night, April 18, at 8 p.m. at Unity Books, 426 Grant p.m. Street. When the People Awake is an by two former political prisoners, Laura Allende and Carmen Castillo, both of whom were imprisoned after the coup because of their work for the Chilean Resistance. Laura Allende is the sister of the late Salvador Allende and visited Buffalo in Sept. 1975. These women tell the tragic story of Chile since the coup, under the brutal rule of the military dictatorship. The film focuses on overwhelming the economic oppression of the Chilean people and the devastating plight of the political prisoners. Since the coup, one 1 out of every one hundred Chileans have been arrested. Accbrding to church sources, about 5000 political prisoners remain, recognized as prisoners by the military. At least another Prize the in Social Documentary category and Catholic Jury Award at the the Mannheim Film Festival in 1973. Made in 1972, it tells the story of Chile under the Allende government up to the time of the military coup. It blends song and dance with political activism, interviews and historical documentary to give a broad overview of Chilean reality. Influence of imperialism prisoners. Deplorable actions Brutal repression and arrests widespread and kidnappings are not restricted to Chile but are becoming common throughout the Southern Cone of Latin America. The Argentine militgfy government which took power in the coup of March 1976 has horrified the world, by its brutal repression of the people of Argentina. Since the coup it has . arrested 30,000 people for their American citizen who prisoners will be seen in Buffalo in the next.few weeks. Thanks to the good work of Catholic Charities, three Chilean refugee families will be arriving here. These families hav suffered imprisonment in Chile and exile in Argentina. They will be arriving without anything and need our help. Please contact Buffalo N1CH at Box 40, Norton Union if you can help with money, food, furniture,, or jobs.

She was held prisoner and tortured by the military for five months, finally being released as a result of State Department intervention. •Her husband, however, remains in jail in Rosario. Ms. Lopez is on a speaking tour of this country to bring us the facts about human rights in Argentina. The event is sponsored by Buffalo NICH and the Western N.Y. Peace Center. Speaking with her will be a Chilean refugee who was recently released from prison as a result of international pressure on the Chilean military. He will speak of conditions in Chile and in the Chilean prisons, further information. Finally, it is important that international pressure on behalf of the Chilean political prisoners be maintained. Buffalo N1CH has organized a Political Prisoners Support Group which receives about specific information political prisoners every two months. Members of the Support Group then write letters on behalf of these prisoners. If you can make a commitment to write letters, please contact Buffalo NICH.

The plots and characters in the movies during the 1930’s and 40’s were “based on pretext and conventions,” she acknowledged. However, the movies usually were able to show a wopian as a strong creature, she added. “Hell, there were more women ‘working’ in the movies back then than actually were.

Figments of fantasies Haskell noted such films as Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Sting, Midnight Cowboy, The Godfather and Taxi Driver. Men directors, she said, are portraying with more frequency, women as “figments of their fantasies.” “Women are in such a transitional period today that most male directors are choosing to ignore them completely save a sex scene or two rather than fuss with trying to show them as real,” she explained. Another problem she noted was that with increased awareness of' their potential many women are simply not wanting to become movie stars.Actresses like Jane Fonda and Vanessa Redgrave are notable in that both go to — — extreme efforts to make sure the world knows that they “are also human beings, capable of thinking and feeling something off the studio lot Before you buy a deodorant tampon, read the “caution” on the packagp.

Friday, 15 April 1977 ie internal protection more woi ien trust �Students going into training for bout with unemployment by Bill McGraw Special to The Spectrum (CPS) — By most available evidence, it seems today’s students are literally lusting after work. Student papers from Maine to California are currently running article after gloomy article that list everything any self-respecting masochist would want to read concerning the grim, post-graduation job market. Similar stories are popping up in the nation’s daily media. University counselors report rising levels of anxiety among college seniors, perched as they are at the hairy edge of the real world, psychologically themselves for preparing their imminent encounter with “underemployment.” In another extreme example, business students at the University of Minnesota rousted their well-fed bodies from bed early one recent morning to line up for interview appointments with corporate recruiters. The school’s placement center didn’t open until 7 a.m. but some students actually fell into line before 3 a.m. This is no small change of events from, say, five or six years ago when some students were more apt to peg eggs at company talent scouts than to kiss their feet. So the casual observer, seeing these examples of the students kowtowing before the high alter of work might well gather young people have rolled up their sleeves and returned to the protestant work ethic fold. Little commitment But have they? Many probably even the majority students and young people are ready, willing and able to fall into any job they can find, work their tails off and put up with all the accompanying benefits and degradations. But at the same' time, millions of other young Americans of every race and background have decided the regular world of work is not for them. They do hold the occasional job the bills must be paid after all but their attitudes are considerably different than those of students who will join an interview line at 2 o’clock in ,the — — morning. “Young workers have little commitment to their job,” lamented one labor expert last spring in a long essay in National Observer. “They view with equal suspicion the business for which they work and the labor union which represents them.” The reasons for this negative attitude towards work are million people slipped under the poverty level, the largest single year increse in 17 years. Sociologist Murray Bookchin feels large numbers' of people “sense that society has developed technology a that could completely abolish material scarcity and reduce toil to a near vanishing point.” Since they feel this way, Bookchin argues, people are just refusing to give their all to the job. He sees this anti-work feeling “percolating downward from youth and the middle class to all strata of society . . . eroding the work ..ethnic and the sancity of property, slowly dissolving the individual’s obedience to institutions and authorities,” Bookchin points out this attitude surfaces in various ways: “among workers who engage in sabotage, work indifferently, practice almost systematic absenteeism, resist authority in almost every form, use' drugs and acquire insurance, for example, where benefits average $50 to $130 a week for over a year, can afford to live relatively high on the hog. Last year five million Americans collected $17.8 billion in unemployment; while in 1965 only $2.2 billion was handed out. “Unemployment creates a sort of utopia,” a young California man who described himself as an various freak,traits A group of insurance industry executives was also told the work ethic is crumbling last year in a report they had commissioned to help them prepare for the future. “More goofing off and more looking to the government and employers for financial security” were just two aspects of the modern day work situation the report cited to bolster its “actor-computer programmer” told The New York Times. “There are a million loopholes but most people aren’t smart enough or educated enough to find them. It lets people work for a year and be on vacation for a year. “Of course, you can’t live like a king,” the actor-computer programmer continued, “but it gives you a chance to travel around, and that’s the American Dream. There’s no law that says you have to work.” conclusions. Government hando.uts welfare, food stamps and unemployment insurance are the means by which many' non-workers finance their permanent vacations. While unfortunate families who are forced on the government dole can hardly make ends meet, it’s a different story for single people.

The delay by the Housing Finance Agency in communicating with Western New York banks on the terms fot purchasing $3 million in short term notes, which yvould permit the resumption of construction at the Amherst Campus, is inexcusable. HFA is responsible for marketing bonds to finance new SUNY construction, and although chances are still good that local banks will buy the bonds, HFA is needlessly dragging its feet. Local bank presidents indicated during the week that they had expected to receive a list of HFA's terms of agreements by March 30. Since HFA did not send out the terms until the middle of last week the process of marketing the bonds has been held up once more. Without falling prey to the regional boosterism that has marked this year's fight for SUNY construction dollars, we can only say to HFA officials that this Unviersity is at a crucial stage in its life, and that every delay in Amherst Campus construction is potentially disasterous. While local banks remain cooperative about backing the bonds, we think HFA ought to move quickly to acknowledge this sign of support for the University. Bring back football Last month, the Student Senate passed an amendment which guarantees a fixed amount of money to the Athletic Department over the next four years. The Student Assoication ordinarily spends upwards of $225,000 of the student activity fee to support intercollegiate and intramural athletics. It was expected that the stability this amendment lends to the athletic program would encourage the financial support from the UB Foundation and eventually lead to the reinstatement of varsity football. Although no agreement has been reached, the likelihood is excellent that some agreement with the Foundation will be announced this month. In other words, there is a distinct possibility that this University will be able to field a Division III football team next fall. We would like to offer our unqualified support to the the benefits return of an intercollegiate football program to the University would be many, and anticipated support from the UB Foundation would keep the cost minimal. But varsity football can become a reality only if the cooperation of the Ketter Administration is assured in overcoming several obstacles. The obstacles include needed repairs on the west stands of Rotary Field, installation of additional locker space, and the choice of a coach from either inside or outside the University. These must all be overcome with approval from University officials. Without their cooperation, reinstating varsity football will be impossible this year or next. — Friday, Vol. 27, No. 73 Richard Korman — — Bill Maraschiello Gail Bass Corydon Ireland Charles Greenberg . . . .John H.

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief ’age twelve . Could a band of terrorists, like the Hanafi Muslims who seized three buildings in Washington recently, create a nuclear device and blackmail an entire city and nation? The answer appears to be a - frightening ugly, yes. In as chilling a document as I have read, a Congressional Advisory group called the Nuclear Proliferation and Safeguard Advisory Panel, working on the problem for a year, has Come through with a 522-page report. Thomas L. Hughes, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, chairs the panel, which includes George Kistiakowsky, who helped build the first A-bomb, Alvin M. Weinberg, Institute for Energy Analysis at Oak Ridge, Theodore B. Taylor, Princeton, top nuclear weapons inventor, and others of similar weight. The report is cool and understated. It has a kind of simple, scientific authenticity of style. It carries a glossary at the end to explain things like “Fast Neutron” (A fast-moving, neutral . subatomic particle) and “Breeder” (A nuclear reactor that produces more fossile nuclear fuel than it uses to produce power). After reading the explanations you don’t understand it much better. But one thing appears over, and over which even the most ignorant grasps. It is later than you think. Yes, it says, “the appearance of increasingly violent and sophisticated terrorist groups has added another element of fear and uncertainty to the nuclear proliferation issue.” It imagines such a band of nationalists: “a group of perhaps a dozen well trained and very competent persons with experience in several fields of science and engineering. They would need the support of a modest, already established, scientific, technical, and organizational infrastructure.” It assumed that they would buy fissionable material on the gray or the black market, or steal it. Under such conditions they could put a “if these bomb together, says the report requirements are met and the program is properly objective might executed, the be attained approximately two years after the start of the program, at a cost of a few tens of millions of — dollars.” — .. ; Congress are mild, quiet men; matter of fact, very low-keyed. They urge Congress to enact stronger protection for the nuclear system. They explain that a bank of “non-state adversaries” (i.e. terrorists) seeking to make a bomb would need “only modest machine-ship facilities that could be contracted for Even with without arousing suspicion.” a “jack-of-all-trades” leader the attempt might well be a failure; on the other hand there is a “clear possibility that a clever and competent group could design and construct a device . A black market ? It is restrained at present by lack of supply, but widespread plutonium recycling . Result: a military effective nuclear explosive Suppose the group isn’t national; has less money is composed of fanatics, maybe, crackpots or criminals; the report discusses their chances, also. “At the low end of the minimal range of effort, a small group of people (possibly terrorists or criminals), none of whom have ever had access to the ; classified literature, could possibly design and build a crude nuclear explosive device. They would not necessarily require a great deal of technological equipment or have to undertake any experiments.” To be sure, it would be risky; “The group,” says To the Editor. 15 April 1977 . — TRB — could remove this constraint; the report says, “some demand appears to exist already as evidenced by Libya’s attempts to buy a bomb.” Most dangerous would be an international feeling that restraints were collapsing; that the present precarious structure of the world’s political system was coming apart. It is doubtful that even the United States could then reject authoritarian safeguards. Says the report grimly, there is “a widespread feeling that time is running out.” The lonely University The Spectrum Editor-in-Chief the report, “wou!4 have literature in several fields, and a ‘jack-of-all-trades’ technician . In these clumsy hands, the writers declare, “a member of the group might suffer serious or fatal injury. However, there is a clear possibility that a clever and competent group could design and construct a device which would give a significant nuclear yield.” Significant yield? Oh, say the equivalent of a couple of kilotons of dynamite. (Kilo, of course, equals 1000.) Enough to demolish lower New York. The report considers the world situation 35 years after that first chain reaction under the grandstands of the University of Chicago and the explosions in 1945 on Hiroshima and Nagasaki which Harry Truman said didn’t interrupt his sleep that night. Today six nations have the bomb; two dozen more have the economic and technical requirements to follow suit; others are straining to get the weapon and the wastes from nuclear plants to use to create light and power can be used to stuff bombs. How fast things move. It seems only yesterday (it was 1945) that by act of Congress Senator Brian McMahon tried to put the genie back in the bomb, “to preserve the secret and confidential charactef” of the process. He failed. Then in 1946 the U.S. proposed the “Baruch Plan” with bombs banned after an international authority was set up. The Soviets balked; they wanted all U.S. bombs destroyed six months after signing the convention. Irreconcilable differences developed. So here we are, today, with a new nuclear confrontation at Moscow. India has breached the barrier between the nuclear great powers and the rest of the international community. Will Brazil be next? Sometimes we have imagined that proliferation would come ' a long time in the future. “Some day,” we said. Has it come now? It still seems unlikely. Where, for example, would terrorist bands get fissionable material? “Theft is the most direct route to nuclear weapons,” explains the scientific panel quietly. It points out that “the psychological value of a successful theft would be considerable even if the weapon were actually unusable “A well trained Commando raid of about 8 or 10 attackers using an imaginative plan and assisted by insiders would be difficult to resist without rapid reinforcement.” The scientists who make their report to The Spectrum . Friday, 15 April 1977 After reading Beth Simon’s report on the panel discussion dealing with “foreign student loneliness” {The Spectrum, Monday, 28 March, 1977), I would like to make some comments on the discussion and Beth Simon’s report on it. First, it seems to me that one evades a more crucial question if one limits his analysis to “foreign student loneliness.” In other words, there is a godd possibility that such loneliness is only a reflection of if it as 'serious as reported a wider lonliness, one which englobes the whole University community with its American as well as foreign students. Second, in relation to the “theory” of the and “hypersensitivity touchiness” of foreign students, a theory which became a reality in the comments from t 1 audience when the discussion was opened to t) floor,” this might have been caused more by the refusal of the audience to have an “expert” (in this case Dr. Masling) tell them what they feel, and differentiate them from their American colleagues foreign students being always - — “ — treated as a special case. Third, the examples of Benjamin and of the “doctorate student from Nigeria who had been here for eleven years” appear to me as a bit out of the usual. That Americans in parties do not talk to foreign students sounds very absurd. Fourth, Beth Simon’s conlcusions or part of that if “this panel discussion accomplished nothing else, it made some foreign students aware of their common problems and common ne'eds [and] allowed them to release some pent up emotion which may help them in dealing with their Buffalo environment,” makes me regret having missed the discussion, for it seems to have been a good and free therapy to help me deal with the “Buffalo — — environment!!” Finally, I hope that this letter will not constitute the one more of indication “hypersensitivity and touchiness” of foreign students. Even though I believe that activities such as the panel discussion are done in good faith, I really think that the best way to help us, foreign students, is to forget about us and let us find out things ourselves. If we need help, psychomat is near. Tony Khater �Enjoyable concert To flic Editor Sunday night I attended a sacred concert in St. Joseph’s Church.

Tilling On cut library hours To the Editor. 1 would like to voice my opposition to the cutback of University library hours, particularly the Art Libary on the Amherst campus. This libary is essential to the education of all art students. The collection is most important as a storehouse of visual material which is a priceless supplement to classroom instruction. Along with this is the fact that many students are working on term papers and need all available hours possible to do quality research as part of class requirements. The Art Library is run efficiently and with ready willingness to help students with any questions. Any cutback on staff is going to lessen their ability to run. the library effectively and. to handle student needs. I ask in all sincerity that any staff reduction be reconsidered and postponed indefinitely. Thank you. William Blv Amherst coverage praised To the Editor Just a little note to let you know that I thought your coverage of the funding problems for the Amherst Campus (issue on Monday, March 21, 1977) was outstanding. The pieces by Tom Blatt, Fredda Cohen and the editorial really show how good a student newspaper can be. It our University community ever does unite to activly support the completion of the campus, then we will be indebted to you for clarifying the issues, and, thereby, making such a united action possible.

THf6 KX)TH- IfJTO wef 1ST I The right to life To the Telit or On Wednesday, March 2, a debate on abortion was scheduled between Bill Baird and myself, a representative of Right to Life, This event did not take place. Mr. Baird could speak on abortion only in relation to his opinion of the Catholic Ch\irch. I discuss the issue from a non-sectarian scientific viewpoint, so there was not enough common ground for us to actually debate, but an interesting discussion did occur. I defended the Right to Life on a human rights issue. For my evidence that the unborn child is a human being I rely upon the wealth of scientific, biological and genetic evidence available worldwide. From the questions the audience put forth, few people had trouble accepting t le fact that new human life begins at conception. The stumbling block seemed to be whether or not there are times when an innocent human being can be killed. Very simply, we in Right to Life know that as long as we are literally sacrificing our children for convenience or money never have a peaceful world. The people who oppose Right to Life tend to fee! pro-life adherents have no respect for a woman’s right to choose or “right to privacy” or to women’s rights in general. On. the contrary, many of us are women, but all of us recognize that no society can truly be free when some have the “right” to kill children. Liberal, yes; free, no. We are concerned with human rights which includes and encompasses women’s rights. Right to Life proponents are sometimes pictured as a small minority attempting to force their morals on others. Yet our morals are the same which dictate that none of you Veaders can kill another without serious legal and social consequences. What we are saying is that all other people are protected by law from being killed by another and this right to life should again be restored THIS oue BUT PBHAVPZ TO 6Rlk)6 ATTeiOTia) » HIS OUM TAUK SH 010. M&s VO TH£V PO IT? to the unborn child Of course, abortions will always take place. All levels of homicide continue although the law forbids it. But the number of abortions will be reduced to their previous low numbers (1972 140 deaths resulting from all abortions in the entire United States) once the legal sanctions have been removed by the passage of the Human Life Amendment. Since the Supreme Court decision, three million babies have been killed along with some of their mothers through legal abortions. Our goal is to return to the states the criminal penalty for abortion, with the doctor responsible and the woman at worst the accessory but possibly — the victim. Abortion is a very lucrative business and all involved, except the mother, stand to lose financially as well as civicly when the unborn child is again legally protected. The Human Life Amendment will permit abortfon to save the life of the mother, a medical procedure which is within the Hippocratic Oath. This is a healing technique, intended to save at least one life, instead of losing two. Elective Abortion is the morbid invasion of the healthy woman’s body. If we are concerned about the woman in a distressing pregnancy, let us offer her positive support such as financial aid, adoption continuing education and social counselling, acceptance and compassion. If we are concerned about children, then let us make this a better world for them. Positive and practical measures can be taken such as health insurance for birth defects and more research into fetal development for diagnostic and healing purposes. We must recognize that the simplest and only solution to unwanted children is not for us to kill them, but for us to want them. To abort a child as an act of mercy or concern is as hypocritical as destroying a Vietnamese village to save it from communism. Yeanne Y.

The musicians (of whom I’ve lonly mentioned some) are only part of the story, though. There’ll be workshops, mini-concerts, craft that l j i.by exhibitions, and a climactic square dance on Sunday. Best of all, there’ll be an abundance of folk -festival feeling that indefinable, ecstatic electricity that turns a mothley gang of strangers into pub-crawlers, skillet-lockers, good old boys, and people who can cherish the- beauties of music that’s our most vital history of days gone by.

His pen’s remained active and sharp through the years; he may even have some new songs for his first visit to Buffalo. Woody Guthrie once said of Jack Elliott: “He sounds more like me I than do.” Brooklyn-born, Elliott looks and sounds as dusty and drifty as any Okie as he rambles through any of dozens of songs, stories, and audacious lies. Through Dylan, Elliott gave his (and Guthrie’s) style to a whole generation of singers. Ramblin’ Jack is a myth incarnate and you don’t see one of those every day, Jonesey. going blues, earth as much as anyone on The Buffalo Gals are, fittingly, Buffalo favorties (though they’re from downstate New York); their hard-driving bluegrass still has enough of a twinkle in its eye to stick “Do The Locomotion’’ onto “Foggy Mountain Breakdown.” And they are all gals. Singer/pianist Raun MacKinnon has made her songs favorites in clubs throughout New York and the East, and her Buffalo debut should add to her considerable following. The local country-rock group Sunrise Highway rounds out Friday night’s program.

In Brecht’s pocket as he spoke was a plane ticket; he left the U.S. that night. m OOKn FOR DISCOUNTS OFFERED TO STUDENTS, FACULTY AND STAFF THE STUDENT DIRECTORY The UB Theatre Department’s production of The Measures Taken is currently playing at the Theatre, Courtyard Pfeifer Lafayette and Hoyt, tonight thru Sunday and next Tuesday, April 19, thru Sunday, April 24; performances begin at 8 p.m. Director Saul Elkin feels that despite the central characters of the China-based story being four Communist the agitators, the once controversy play generated is misplaced: “Brecht intended it as a learning experience for both actors and audience. He wrote � several plays of this kind, calling them lehrstuecke in German, resemble, pieces.’ They ‘teaching the Jesuit instruction in fact, plays used to teach Christian — individual needs? Do they deliver the supplies or care for their comrade? “The people in the play which is meant to them as Marxist clearly feel that instruction collective needs matter more. But Brecht wants the audience to feel a little more ambiguous, I think. At one point, the play’s chorus the ‘Control Chorus,’ says 'We agree to this. ’ But we who are watching this do we agree?” As to which decision is eventually made, all it’d be fair to reveal is Elkin’s comment that “there’s an irony here: that is this practical Marxist Utopia there is still room for sentiment and love.” And another irony: that “this is a tragedy without a tragic hero, a Hamlet without Hamlet.” - — - - - Bentley: It would have been appropriate for Measures Taken to have appeared in the politically fervent 60’s; UB did mount, though, again under Elkin’s direction, Brecht’s A Man’s A Man then. “I could say we’re doing it now because it’s an important play by an important Dempsey which would be playwright true, but something of a copout. Certainly Eric Bentley’s being on the faculty was a great impetus.” Theatre Bentley, visiting professor and perhaps the greatest authority on the theatre of Brecht, both revised his translation of Measures for this production and served as general consultant. “He’s been working closely with myself and the cast,” said Elkin, “and he’s been ... wonderful.” ultimate Musing on the meaning of The Measures Taken, Elkin mentioned “that attitude ‘In time or War you do what you have to.’ Some people will find the play shocking, even today.” The score is by Hans Eisler; musical director is Ray Leslee. Tickets are available at the Squire (Norton) Ticket Office and at the door of the theatre. ...

(Asylum)' “Love is a nose and you’d better not pick it.” —Stephen Mueller After growing a few grey hairs trying to figure out what the hell is wrong with the cover, I flipped the contents onto the trusty turntable. The Jack-Of-All-Trades-of-L.A.-Rock, Andrew Gold, gives birth to his second child, a bouncing baby record that is immediately up for adoption by all. He plays all sorts of instruments, except the spoons, of course, (my brother Scott’s speciality) and his cohorts from L.A. contribute their own two cents, totalling about a quarter. Oh, sweet romance! Andy Gold is a seeming expert in the rising genre of Sarcastic Love Songs, the kind of thing 10CC and McCartney like to indulge in. I mean, did you ever hear one of those love songs where you didn’t know if the guy was dealing with a full deck? Jump on over to your other half’s balcony and careen these words to her (from the pen of Gold): On a summer night, when the stars are,bright. We 'll make a date and then we ’ll Go strolling and take a look at this romantic moon, You hear so much about. Bounding back from my speakers, I can hear echoes of Linda Ronstadt, or as she is known chauvinistically in my neighborhood, “The Piece,” but any beanbag knows Gold is her right-hand musician (ah, but what he does with his left one ...). Anything that rubs off her can’t be that bad and Gold rubs off well (wait, 1 didn’t say that!). I am happy to say that What's Wrong With this Picture? is a prize possession in the section where I shove my Eagles, Fogelbergs, Jackson Brownes and the likes. Yes! There is catchiness! Yes! There are some swirling slide solos! Yes! There are remakes (three of them!)! Yes! There is a song where Gold plays EVERYTHING, except with himself! These are me true trademarks of a nice, young L.A. boy whp’s out to urbanize the coun'try/rock/pop scene. Wonder Boy captures the sound of the artists he’s worked with and turns them into his own little pop hor d’oeuvres, which owes much to the Cuisine of Peter Asher, the producer. The instrumentation is virtually clean-cut, but I get the feeling that these guys had a helluva time making this record. Hey, just check out the array of songs they had to record the Sarcastic Love Song (“Hope You Feel Good”), the Upbeat-What-The-Hell-Did—I-Do? Love Song (“Must Be Crazy”), the Pseudo-Meaningful-Family Love and the Song (“Lonely Boy”) Rockin’-Get-The-Hell-Out-of-My-Life Love Song (“Go Back Home Again”). There is almost no love song genre left untouched. Andrew Gold has to record his Buddy Holly tune, so he picks a slow one this time, “Learning the Game,” which is saved from pretentiousness by the life preserver arranging and harmonizing. An ass-bumpin’ version of the ’50’s oldie, “Stay” (“Won’t you sta-a-a-a-ay, just a little bit longer...”), is stretched out to 5-minutes worth, a compulsive handclapper. The remake that can’t be beat on this vinyl package is the Manfred Mann goody, “Do Wah Diddy.” Twin riffing from Golden Boy and Danny the Kootch and what sounds like a mob singing the chorus make this a perfect choice for a Super Single. You and your loved one will be singing “do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do” all the way to the back seat of your car, for those who resort to the Fine Art of Parking, or the Classy Romantics, who prefer the privacy of their own homes (take yer choice, pardner). . Two cuts stand out as sweeping masterpieces, both soft, slow movers. “Firefly” is an acoustically-oriented piece: a simple, pretty ditty that features Andy playing the works. The album concludes with “One of Them is Me,” a strange, melodic ballad that builds magnificently in the home stretch of the song, the chords falling beautifully into each other. It concerns the protagonist’s uncertainty of his placement with a woman he loves. — One of them is me and I don’t know who, One of them is me and I don’t know who, Oh, look into my eyes, tell me what you see. One of them is me and I don’t know who. What’s Wrong With This Picture? is up there, folks, a contender for one of the Best (you never know). Andy’s got the Magic Hands and a sharp wit to back them up. Get on yer Vehicle of Transportation and pick up this top-notch collection of this artist’s full compass of excellence in pop/rock musicianship. Just stick to that age-old slogan: All that Glitters is Gold.

Name Name Age W _ _ Address City —State Zip University (USD) �* :etum to Forever, Musicmagic (Columbia) The jazz-rock world is once again in a frenzy, lands in this vein are constantly rearranging members of disintegrating into oblivion. It was not much of a surprise, therefore, that one of, if not the, most popular of these borderline jazz bands, Return to Forever, should undergo this inevitable evolution. Chick Cerea, keyboardist extraordinaire and founding father of RTF, brought down the ax on jwo “established” members and supposed friends, A1 DiMeola and Lenny White. The fact that Romantic Warrior, the quartet’s previous release, sold more copies than any of their other efforts, made me wonder what musicmagic Chick had up his sleeve. DiMeola is one of the best jazz guitarists around, and White is an excellent percussionist. At the time of the last LP, the band was tightening into a very cohesive sound,' but at the same time their musical compositions were just hinting of stagnation. Corea, sensing that the opportunities awaiting the quartet ahead were rapidly diminishing, dismissed two of the best musicians around, causing bitter feelings. When I first heard of this, I questioned Corea’s logic. After listening to the new Return to Forever perform on Musicmagic, I firmly believe that not only did he make the right move, but that he has created one of the finest jazz-rock albums to hit the market in recent years. Lenny White has been replaced by Gerry Brown on drums, and no loss of quality is audible. Brown has his own style, but it is very much in sync with the present RTF. DiMeola’s role was eliminated entirely. Chick retained Stanley Clarke on bass. Considering that Clarke co-produces much of RTF’s material and is probably the best composer in the group aside from Chick, the decision to keep him was inevitably affirmative. Corea’s longtime female friend Gayle Moran was added. Miss Moran has recorded previously with Corea on his solo endeavors, and her sugar-sweet vocals are the perfect complement to Clarke’s bassier voice. Her recent stint with the Mahavishnu Orchestra didn’t gain her all that much recognition, but in the present RTF, her vocals are used to their most advantageous extent. Joe Farrell, whose sessionwork credits are too numerous to list, plays sax and flute expertly. To fill out the band’s sound is a four piece horn section, comprised of John Thomas, James Tinsley, Jim Pugh, and Harold Garrett. The brassier sound in this chapter of RTF is Corea’s brainchild, adding much more arrangement possibilities and fullness of sound. “Hello Again,” composed and arranged entirely by Stanley Clarke, enlists his vocals beautifully. I’ve never heard him sing that well. The track is an excellent example of the fine production on this disc, engineered by Bernie Kirsch. Good horn solos are added to build dn the complexity of the sound. A brief piano interlude is followed by the title track,’ “Musicmagic,” opening with a typically Corea styled organ motif. The light, boppy sound of this jazzier number has Clarke and Moran trading off on vocals. The music on this cut, excluding Clarke’s vocals, is somewhat reminiscent of RTF’s earlier days with Flora Purim. “So Long Mickey Mouse,” the other Stanley Clarke composition, begins with a nice acoustic bass arrangement followed by the beautifully intertwined vocals of Mr. Clarke and Miss Moran. The mood is suddenly broken by horns, which, along with the bass and keyboards, are expertly woven by Stanley to form a web of orchestrated sound. “Do You Ever,” the only Gayle Moran composition, is a mostly acoustic piece, spotlighting her vocals alongside Corea’s masterful piano. The final song, “The Endless Night,” is quite possibly the best cut on the disc. A Corea composition, it’s orchestration, combined with the superb vocals, are overwhelming. Corea’s disposal of half his former band has worked. It may have caused bitter feelings within a previously successful group, but emotions within groups aren’t to be dealt with by critics. Basing my opinion solely on the latest work, I am convinced that the additions far outweigh the losses, giving Corea and Clarke the perfect opportunity to display their virtuostic abilities. This can be expressed perfectly by referring to the last sortg, “The Endless Night,” Paradise is gone Yet it can come back, hack again Returning to forever, forever, forever. Chick and Stanley have indeed returned, with a virtual jazz masterpiece. Their upcoming concert at the Century should not be missed.

A Philadelphia native, Priscilla has a voice that it would be shallow to call “thrilling,” and the power to put every ounce of her heart and soul into everything she sings. Wherever Margaret MacArthur goes from her old Vermont she makes new farmhouse, friends, won over by her skill on the mountain dulcimer and the shimmering, ethereal lap harp, and her own gentle way with a song. Most of her music is the folk music of Vermont, much of which she’s collected herself. She’s warm, charming, and a quietly great musician. Jonette Carter is the daughter of Sara and A.P. Carter, and the Carter Family (no relation to President Grits) was probably the most important group in the history of country music. (A.P. the wrote “Will Circle Be Unbroken,” “Wildwood Flower,” “Keep On the Sunny Side,” and many other immortal songs.) To hear Jonette is to find the roots of American music. The trip to the country prepared Milton Plesur, professor of History here since 1971 and a faculty member since 1952, has been elected vice-chairman of the Board of Trustees of Medaille College.

Now with flip Shot Dees has attempted to strike out on his own Daryl Hall, who produced, arranged, played keyboards and synthesizers, in addition to co-authoring two songs and providing vocal support, made a significant imprint on this record. His vocal presence is more than felt; his background vocals and harmonies being on par with his work with John Oates, while Hall’s keyboard and synthesizer prowess continues to increase. Hall’s production seems somewhat reminiscent of Todd Rundgren’s production of War Babies. The instrumental mix is generally extremely complex with the use of special effects and studio wizardry at a maximum. Dees, who tends to accentuate his vocals, sounds at times like an American David Bowie. His phrasing and enunciation are patterned after Bowie’s, but Dees’ vocals contain the conviction and forcefulness that Bowie’s too often lack. Hip Shot is primarily a potpourri of rockers with an occasional ballad. “Out-A My Skin,” co-written by .Hall, is one of the best pure rockers I’ve heard in months. The musicians, Dees on lead and rhythm guitar, as well as bass, Hall on an electrifying synthesizer, Eddie Zyne on drums and Charlie DeChant on saxophone (both members along with Dees of Hall & Oates’ touring band) simply sizzle, creating the perfect backdrop for Dees’ and Hall’s vocals. The album’s most effective track, “Kerry.” was previously recorded by Hall Oates on their Bigger Than Both Of Us masterpiece, “Kerry,” as recorded by Dees, opens with a scintillating intro featuring Daryl Hall on a 21st Friday night’s concert is'in Clark Gym, Saturday night’s concert in the Squire Fillmore Room in (Norton) Hall; both start at 8 p.m. Workshops Saturday are afternoon in Squire, and the square dance finishes things up Sunday afternoon at 1 p.m. in the \i//\ir/ II Steaks!

But it’s true, isn’t it? “Wouldn’t it be nice if we were older. .” After hat. I’m too old. “Sail on, Sail on, Sailor.” The words obtain and enrapture the feeling. The surfs up; the little deuce coupe just joined the Beach Boys. You can hear the concept of Holland in his voice and through his guitar. South African, Englishman, American Blondie Chaplin caught the wave, sat in his T-bird humming: “Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba-Barbara Ann.” It was quiet for quite a while. But now Blondie Chaplin has released a soul-o album. The idea propounded is to have fun and be nice. We all make the best of it. Seemingly tempted to fly into a devilish pop syndrome, Chaplin combines soul, rhythm and blues and rock ’n roll to sell the commodity of happiness. Slight tangent. One cannot sell happiness, can one? That question is as typically rehtorical as the record business can get. The eternal enigma is always present in foreboding form as a sort of Record Needle of Damacles: if one can transport the “enjoyment quotient” of rock ’n roll from the feeling within the artist to the recording studio to . the retail outlet to the home stereo, the artist has accomplished the nearly impossible feat of relating happiness. It is questionable whether the true “enjoyment quotient” ever reaches the stereo which houses one’s room. The marketing factor takes the surreality of fun away. And as much as the naive consumer can stand in virgin ignorance, the recording industry hangs the Record Needle of Damacles above the listener’s head. If you don’t buy the fun, you don’t get the fun. If you do buy the record the real enjoyment is diminished. Either way the artist and the consumer are somewhat prostituted. Chaplin, though, comes closer than any new artist 1 have heard to overcoming the wall between consumer and artist. His energy is like that of a superman, leaping and bounding over every rock ’n roll barrier to commune with the listener. The energy carried over is unabashed and pure, transforming the Needle of Damacles to a thing of power used to transmit the feeling of rock ’n roll. The album’s sounds are ever smoothly raucous and original. Standing on the shoulders of giants that preceded and influenced the singer/songwriter, Blondie Chaplin sounds like everyone, but by injecting his essence into each note, he breeds new sounds. The craft is more than mutation, it is creativity Songs like ’“Bye Bye Babe,” “Can You Hear Me” and “Crazy Love” admit this creativity to the listener’s ear. There is sould in the chorus of Venelta Fields and Clydie King. The backup blends with Kenny Gradney’s R&B bass structure while Chaplin’s guitar rocks with a roaming life of its own. Combining this mobility with the distinct and sjick string arrangements of Nick Do Caro finds the listener toe-tapping and foot-stomping to the melodies of pop. When pop rock is performed correctly, the result is the most pleasing form of enjoyment music can produce. The epitome of this melting pot of rock is showcased in the song “Lonely Traveler.” The tune is mellow enough for one to slip into a lackadaisical placidity yet the instrumentation is flexible and flashy to yield intense and intent pop-rock. When the pop chain of fusion breaks down, one is left with boredom. Two songs nearing this category are “Say You Need Me” and “For Your Love.” The reason for the lack of strength is simple, for the rock is not an integrated form of pop. R&B soul or blues is left alone with no backbone. But the album, aside from these two cuts is excellent. If this studio album is an indication of Blondie Chaplin’s energy, his pop-rock must be great in concert. * * * * * A similarly successful release regarding pop-rock is Micheal Frank’s Sleeping Gypsy. Did you ever hear of popsicle pop? Michael Franks is popsicle jazz a melting and icy refreshment, the sweetness of which remains even after the subject of your taste is consumed. Whether you bite off a lot’to chill your mouth or lick or suck the sweetness, you get quite a decent amount of satisfaction. Even before Franks’ hit of “Popsicle Toes,” the artist invented been popsicle jazz. He’s experimenting with that popular form of communication for four or five albums now. Sleeping Gypsy is his best effort to date. Being a connoissuer of popsicles, another metaphor is appropriate. Early FRanks’ releases were like Freeze Pops, the kind of frozen ice that comes in the plastic wrapping you have to squeeze before the pop comes out. The ice and the syrup separate, so the ice is eaten previous to the sucking up of the syrup. This happening is almost as upsetting as the popsicle falling off the stick. The product lacks cohesion. Franks’ last two releases. The Art of Tea and Sleeping Gypsy, are like the “Original Pop-side,” a product which is the ultimate in frozen ice ecstacy. Popsicle jazz is neon, electric and quick. You can’t think about one part of the whole, you must take the whole as a blend of good taste. But I’ll tell you a copyrighted recipe for the whole sweet goodie so you will know it when you hear it. At its base are the frilly trills of Michael Franks’ electric piano. Eluding long, banal notes and caressing others not whole or half in length, Franks touches spurts of quarter, eighth and sixteenth notes. Therefore, tunes like “The Lady Wants To Know” brush the ear softly so you want to keep hearing more. Popsicle jazz is light, Franks’ voice on “In The Eye of the Storm” takes on an eerie and icy quality which canges to haunting warmth. Percussion in this song of a human storm is appropriately chaotic as David Sanborn’s sax is the calm, balmy eye of the disaster. The focus of. the guitar touches on bits of bosanova, salsa and samba. For popsicle jazz to be fruitful, each instrument must be recorded with clarity; the product must not be hollow. The melodies and changes must be quick and crisp, though not brittle. The lyrics must be pleasant, as in “Don’t Be Blue”: — Love is almost like hide and seek The lyrics must be funny as the blues with a touch of irony on “In The Eye of the Storm”: I hear from my ex on the hack of my checks Get some love in you groove But hold me a while and I’ll hang up my guns. mom I know / Vc been flying too near the sun We'll move to the mountains, make love to keep warm Like two Little birds in the eye of the storm. Within last summer’s heat, 1 learned about popsicle jazz while sucking someone’s popsicle toes. U's better than the Hite Report; everyone should learn how. And Michael Franks’ Sleeping Gypsy provides the mood. Let two moths fly to cool on a popsicle. It’s satisfaction. And you thought you Harold Goldberg can’t gel no ... onka\ Baseball Bulls return, hopeful. from Florida by Joy Clark Assistant Sports Editor The baseball Bulls returned from their annual trip to Florida this week with their best record ever (6-7) and an optimistic outlook about the coming season. “We were very successful,” commented coach Bill Monkarsh. “I was happy in most respects.” The team that travelled to Florida this year was a marked contrast from last year’s. 24-15 team. Fourteen seniors graduated last year, leaving Monkarsh with a young, largely inexperienced squad. This trip showed Monkarsh the strengths and weaknesses of his new team. “I’m very optimistic about our defense, but we do need improvement on hitting and our pitching is not consistent,” Monkarsh said. The infield was the standout in Florida. John White and Mike Dixon at first, Mike Groh at second, Jack Kaminska at short and Ed Durkin at third were “terrific,” according to the coach. Groh and Kaminska turned 13 double plays and Durkin also made some fine stops. The outfield, with freshmen Jim Wojcik and Joe Vizzi, along with sophomore John Pederson, also played an outstanding aggressive defense keeping runners from taking an extra base. Search for consistency The hitting, said Monkarsh, was adequate. “We have to be consistent with men on base, and to get the big hit then.”Pederson led all hitters with an average of over .400, while Groh (.370) and Dixon (.360) followed close behind. Dixon also had four homers in Florida. The pitching staff did have some bright spots, including senior Bill Casbolt and junior Dave Borsuk. Sophomore Mike Betz came off a broken ankle to pitch a fine game the last day against Miami. But the pitching staff as a whole suffered from inconsistency. “We did not throw strikes consistently, and that led to most of our troubles in thf win-loss column,” said Monkarsh. In one game against the University Miami, the Bulls were leading, but then lost it when the Buffal pitchers gave up 8 runs on 6 walks. Most of the Bulls’ losses (6) came against that same Miami team. The Hurricanes had already played over thirty games, and were therefore in much better condition than the Bulls, who were just beginning their season. Also, “this was one of the best hitting Miami teams I’ve ever seen,” said Monkarsh. Among the Bulls’ wins was an 11-7 triumph over the Oneonta Yankees (a farm team of the New Yorl < Yankees). This trip was the first testing ground for the Bulls’ 13 freshme and, according to Monkarsh, they all passed the test. “Overall, tb freshmen handled themselves very well under pressure-packe situations,” said the coach. “It was a learning situation, as the entiyear will be.” Some of the rookies did especially well, including Viz Wojcik and pitcher Luke Owens. Mound important Barring injuries, Monkarsh can count on his defense and hitting, it will be pitching that determines the outcome of the 'll season, “i the pitchers can throw more consistently, then we can have a goo season,” said Monkarsh. “Our success depends on whether they cai throw strikes or not.” Another uncertain factor is the freshmen. "Hov they react to pressure will determine how well we do,” state< t Monkarsh. The Bulls open their season up North at St. John’s tomorrow. Tin Redmen defeated the Bulls last year in the ECAC playoffs, so this is grudge match for Buffalo. Monkarsh expects to start Casbolt in the first game of the doubleheader. Almost everyone from last year' powerful St. John’s team has returned this year and, as Monkarsh says “It’s always a struggle to win on the road. We have to get good pressurt hitting, good pitching and good defense to win.” Sunday they pla> Fairfield and Monday they visit Seton Hall. Friday, 15 April 1977 The Spectrum .

Journeyhas achieved* JOURNEY NEXT have had The Buffalo Braves and the basketball Bulls may not the 1976-77, but in city of seasons in outstanding basketball Lackawanna, just south of Buffalo, the Lackawanna High School (LHS) Steelers had a banner year. Coached by former Bulls star Bill Bilowus, who played for Buffalo from 1960-1965 (he missed one season due to injury), the Steelers this year amassed the best record in Western New York high school history with 24 wins and zero losses. Included in this unbeaten season was :j decisive win over the Ontario champion Oakwood Collegiate Institute, the capturing of the Section VI championship for the third straight year (Section VI includes Western New York and the Niagara Frontier), and the extending of the school’s unbeaten streak to 64 games. But the reason this season was something special was that the Steelers were the number one ranked high school team in New York State for the 1976-77 season, one of the few times that a Western New York team has achieved this distinction. Buffaloalumnus Bilowus, whose eight season coaching record at Lackawanna is 142-23 says that playing at the University of Buffalo helped to mold his own coaching philosophy. His collegiate coach, Len Serfustini, “believed in hard work and aggressive pldy” and he, too, tries to instill the importance of “hard work, aggressive defense, and pride” upon his players at LHS. “I never complement a player for his shooting,” he remarked. As a result his players are very unselfish in passing the ball to a teammate who may have a better shot. Evidence that Bilowus’ philosophy is working can be seen in the balanced team scoring, and in the team’s rebounding where they have outrebounded usually taller opponents by a 2-1 margin. Most coaches say what they admire most about the Lackawanna team is its quickness, discipline and defense. Bilowus also credits “a good system and good program starting from the freshmen level” for the success of his varsity teams. Under the direction of Joe Foley, the Lackawanna freshmen have lost only three games in the past five years while the junior varsity team, coached by brother Bob Bilowus, has also lost only thrice in the previous five seasons. “By the time a player comes to me, he is a well-developed basketball player who knows how to play the game,” Bilowus stated. INGMAR DERGMAN3 [Rj Spectrum Staff Writer Journey has achieved the critical acclaim of an "art band Journey has achieved the headline status and audience support of a brilliant street band. Journey has achieved collective recognition for their unique sound Gregg Rolie, Neal Schon, Ross Valory and Aynsley Dunbar have v achieved individual recognition as masters of their instruments. In short, Journey achieved it all And then came "Next." Critics rap schedule He calls this team his best ever, not necessarily because of its number “we had eight players who could really play one ranking, but and we never had a bad game defensively.” The Sfeelers averaged 74 points per game and only gave up an average of 42 points per game. Even with these impressive accomplishments and acclamations, there are still some critics who say that the Steelers “don’t play anybody.” Although the Western New York area does not quite turn out as many college stars as other areas of the state, many area schoolboy stars have gone on to play at such top basketball schools as Syracuse University and the University of Tennesee. Last year the Steelers were entered in the prestigious Long Island Lutheran Tournament (the Top Eight Classic) but when the host Long Island school had an off year, the tourney was terminated. This year a supposed state-wide tournament involving the top teams from nine of the state’s 11 sections was cancelled, too. Bilowus felt that this state tournament would have shown how good his team really is. He contends that the critics fail to realize the Steelers have tried to play “somebody,” but no one seems to want to play them. True test next year Next year, providing that there are no cancellations, the Steelers may get their chance to silence their critics once and for all. A New York State Championship Tournament is scheduled for next year to decide the state’s top public school team for the 1977-78 year. The following year there will be a championship involving both public and private schools so that the number one school, no matter who it may be, will have no critics who say “they didn’t play anybody.” Although the Steelers lose four cagers through graduation (all attracted a Hock of college scouts, including Buffalo’s Leo Richardson), Bilowus and area coaches feel that next year’s team may be even better. With tour of LHS’ top eight players returning and with some good prospects advancing trom the J.V. team this observation seems to be a very logical appraisal of what the future will be like. “It depends on what the boys do over the summer to improve themselves,” Bilowus said. So with the expected hope of an even better team and the long awaited state championship tournament likely to become a reality, Bilowus can hardly wait until next year when his Steelers can show that they truly are, once again, the best team in the Buffalo area, and one of the best high school teams in New York State.

Although optimistic predictions in 1975 forecast completion of construction in September 1977, a series of delays has pushed the earliest possible completion date back into late 1979. The latest delay has been a nine-month wait for a reply from officials in the State Division of the Budget in Albany, who must approve plans for taking out a bank mortgage for construction of the facilities and renting storefronts to area merchants. The plans for Parcel B are being carried out by members of the UB Foundation, an of University organization and alumnus area business heads, which incorporated when the University became part of SUNY to promote private philanthropy. John Carter, chairman of the Parcel B Board of Directors, said the delay by the Division of the Budget has probably driven the cost of the project 15 percent higher than previously planned because the rate of inflation in the construction industry is so great. The project was originally pricetagged at somewhere between eight and ten million dollars. Mortgage or rent? Carter said in an interview Monday that the Division of the Budget had insisted that the first priority for use of income from rental charges to local merchants be payment of rent to SUNY rather than payment on the bank mortgage. “We have told DOB if we must pay rent as a number one piority, we will never get a mortgage,” Carter said. Carter indicated that the lease with SUNY, signed over a year ago, held that mortgage payments be the first priority for Parcel B revenues. Members of the Parcel B Board of Directors met for a full day last year with Division of the Budget officials. Carter said he thought that all questions about the project were answered then. But he said that because of the other problems in SUNY construction, “our little ten-million-dollar project is not much of a priority.” “We don’t find the delay acceptable at all,” he said. The plot Of land known as Parcel B on the Amherst Campus campus, and, therefore, will not runs along Lee Entrance Road, need large attention-grabbing signs south of the Ellicott Complex, which can be seen from the roads west of Lake LaSalle, and directly near campus. north of the academic spines’ The hotel was intended to hold language buildingabout 150 rooms and provide 20,000 square feet of office space, ‘First class merchants’ facilities for a faculty-alumni club, and possibly 20,000 square feet of Carter said he "has a list of student-activity space. “first-class” merchants who have The Parcel B plan is considered expressed willingness to locate at to be unique within SUNY.

Area merchants and members of the Amherst Town Council became upset at the prospect of a large development competing with other businesses without being subject to taxes by virture of its residence on State-owned property. The bill had been written for SUNY and members of the Governor’s staff by attorneys. It was given to McFarland and Fremming to sponsor in their respective legislative houses. McFarland recalled the bill after consulting with officials from the Town of Amherst who charged it was being “rammed” through because they were certain to oppose it. McFarland eventually agreed to amend the bill to guarantee payments instead of taxes and limitations on how much retail, office and hotel space could be set aside on the campus. He also agreed to the present size and location of the hotel. Another stumbling block in the Parcel B project was overcome when the trustees ended, at President Robert Ketter’s request, their withholding of authorization for any contracts until student participation in the planning of the project was ensured. Ketter indicated to members of the SUNY trustees, in spite of protests from students leaders, that he did not support student representation on the Parcel B Board. He said at the time that his principle reason for denying student membership is that the project must be fiscally sound. �University of Pennsylvania ' Student police admit to spying on radical groups by Daniel W. Lindley now a lieutenant. Asked if his ' detectives or work-study students had gathered intelligence on the YSA, Shultis replied, “I never heard of them.” “We do not use covert intelligence,” he added. But he said that “we have sent detectives to meetings on this campus.” Shultis denied charges by some YSA members that campus security has been passing its intelligence files on to th6 FBI. YSA leader Galinsky additionally claimed that campus security has been supplying files to a local Philadelphia “Red Squad;” in a 1974 university trial of a Progressive Labor Party member who had presented a professor a “racist of the year” award in class, the Philadelphia Civil Disobedience Squad supplied the court with files on the student, said Galinsky. him look through several of the files that had been kept.” Special to The Spectrum (CPS) The Mod Squad is alive and well and battling crime and unrest at the University of Pennsylvania. — Five or six UP work-study students, members of the campus security auxiliary force nicknamed “the Mod Squad,” admitted to a Daily Pennsylvanian' reporter March 7 that they were paid by the university last June to gather information on several student organizations, including the Young Socialist Alliance (YSA). The YSA is a campus affiliate of the Socialist Workers’ Party, which had its New York offices broken into by the FBI. “We suspected for years that campus security had been spying on us,” said Seth Galinsky, head of UP’s YSA chapter. “The reporter from the Daily Penn bluffed the head of security by telling him that he already pr ox> f had o£ the intelligence-gathering. Then the chief let The files, according to the Daily Penn, contained newspaper clippings, political literature and security reports which described what occurred at YSA meetings. The supervisor of UP detectives told the paper that his force had gathered information on the Revolutionary Student Brigade, the July Fourth Coalition and the Vietnam Veterans Against the War as well. No discussion An FBI spokesman contacted in Philadelphia said that to his knowledge, campus security has not been supplying the FBI with files on any students or student Routine Campus Secusity Director Donald Shultis denied in a telephone interview that he has employed his Mod Squad in gathering intelligence. Rather, he said, the work-study students receive the minimum pay wage for “routine office administration” and “crime watches such as protecting bicycles from theft and providing a security escort for students.” Some former members of the Mod Squad, he continued, graduated and now work full-time for him. One ex-member is organizations. “The Young Socialist Alliance is not one of the organizations that the FBI now has under surveillance*” he said. Asked if his organization ever had aided campus security in gathering information on any campus group, he replied, “I don’t think that warrants any discussion at this BCCC to begin action Fimd exmm on city’s federal fund *vmers awaritf � sarms point. It’s been litigated in the past.” Similar surveillance of campus organizations by school authorities has appeared at only a few other colleges in At Central Michigan years. recent University, for instance, an 18-page excerpt from an FBI document secured under the Freedom of Information. Act last fallrevealed - that an FBI informant had been reporting on the CMU chapter of the YSA. Campus security apparently had supplied the FBI contact the names, telephone numbers, addresses, and campus affiliations of certain students. Kent State students have charged that a former deariof student life there collected information on the Kent State YSA between 1965 and 1968. Meanwhile, UP’s Committee on Open a fact-finding group of Expression, administrators, faculty and students, has decided to investigate the growing controversy surrounding campus security’s files. The committee currently is trying to obtain the files from Shultis. “I’m not sure we can deal with prior behavior,” said chairman of the committee Larry Gross. “Still, should there be our findings disciplinary proceedings, should conclusive for the be administration.” The YSA, which claims that the Committee on Open Expression has never found in favor of a student, is discussing legal action. Final Exam Week will begin on May 19th and end on the 26th.

BCCC’s application for the funds was approved by a 11 to 3 vote on March 22, following the Council’s elimination of a mayoral “slush fund” for unspecified contingencies totalling $402,100 of the community development funds. This sum was then divided between the BCCC and ten other city-wide programs not provided for under Mayor Stanley Makowski’s original spending plan, The BCCC requested $50,000 for its myriad of programs over a month ago, and was fairly confident that efforts made in its behalf by ■University Councilman William A. Price, among others, would bring at least partial budgeting. Price was the BCCC’s strongest advocate in the Council during the application process and was particularly influencial as chairman of the Mayor’s Special Committee on Revenue Sharing. oreenno g jflfGj-ad^P |s £ v.

The BCCC expects to begin action on several proposals initially outlined in its application, including the development of new buying clubs and storefronts, recycling centers and an alternative energy team. The publication of an “alternative newspaper” is one of several projected projects. Procedural difficulties have already cropped up. Member Ron Katz said that deciding which projects will receive a share of the funds is “very tricky. There’s usually a fear attached to money.” Katz has noticed that members who invested much time and energy in getting the BCCC proposal approved are now pushing their own pet projects which “could cause dissention and disturb relationships between people,” he said.

Asante charged that both Bunn’s decision to reappoint Gantz and Frye and the faculty’s vote of no confidence racially were motivated. “If I were white,” Asante protested at the time, “my decision not to recommend the reappointment of Gantz and Frye would not have been questioned.” Butler and Bunn have been working with closely the department faculty in- an attempt to clear Up some of the problems within the department. BuVm also said that a committee will soon be selected ' and charged with investigating the department.

The committee will be charged with investigating the governance Standards, academic department. mission of and the Negative attitude Asante and some of his faculty have recently expressed concern that intra-departmental squabbles have damaged the reputation of the department. According to Asante, however, “academic standards have never been higher.” Professor Charles Petrie complained negative that a attitude was being built up against the department by the pre§s and some of the department faculty. While he says he differs with department Asante on his administration, he shares his concern for the department’s reputation. “Goddammit this department good,” Petrie protested. “Sure we have problems, who doesn’t? But why don’t they ever print any of the positive things we have accomplishe. We are doing our job. I have never gone to a class is unprepared — and that applies to in this department.” Both Asante and Petrie hope that the Alvis controversy can be everyone kept within the department and out of the public spotlight. They feel Alvis had already suffered enough arid that further publicity would serve constructive no purpose and would be cruel. Alvis would not comment. Canisius College meeting NYPIRG solicits support by Michele Cohen Staff Writer Spectrum A conference was held last Saturday at Canisius College to solicit support for the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG), frpni students attending schools other than this University and Buffalo State College (Buff State). About 50 persons attended, representing not only those two schools but also Niagara University and Daemon, Canisius and D’Youville Colleges. Donald Ross, statewide NYPIRG executive, began the conference with, a preview of upcoming projects related to Western New York, later reviewing some of NYPIRG’s overall areas of involvement. Ross discussed the pending law suits in Albany as a result of unjustified allocations of funds for the Albany Mall, a scientific investigation of the Hudson River to determine its suitability as a future water supply, and the 8% leakage of gas'from Con' Ed’s pipelines, listing just a few of the issues NYPIRG is concerned with. NYPIRGs to multiply Ross expressed a positive, enthusiastic attitude toward his consumer group. “The possibilities for creative action are really there,” he said, hoping that the conference would be a “spark,” for NYPIRG affiliations on private college campuses, especially where community ties are strong. Ross was followed by Paul Maggiotoo, a student here, who discussed NYPIRG’s gas rebate campaign and Tom Novick, a Buff State student organizer for marijuana decriminalization. Maggiotto pointed out that NYPIRG projects offer the opportunity for collective action by broad segments of the community to “bridge the gap” between labor, business, senior citizens and students. The community effort on the gas rebate issue is one example. Public Citizen Awards were then given to Dorothy Teryl, a member of the American Civil Liberties union who defended numerous young people in the aftermath of a large-scale drug arrest at Rich Stadium last year, and Bunny Ross, an organizer of No Overhead Transit (NOT) which opposed elevated mass transit lines in Buffalo. Workshops following the opening remarks gave students a chance to learn about specific NYPIRG programs. Discussion outlined ways NYPIRG volunteers could effect change in those areas such — as marijuana decriminalization, legislative work, alternate energy, utility reform, consumerism, and children’s justice. Further discussions concerned nuclear power. Food Day, Government Accountability, Small Claims Court, and NYPIRG What Your S Buys. — Unique internship NYF/RG offers the unique opportunity to spend a semester working in the Albany legislature. Students learn how to pass a piece.of legislation, “lake a specitjc'issue, build a coalition and push the tiling through.” explained Jill Siegel, a past participant in the program. Tom Novick led a workshop on marijuana decriminalization. NYPIRG’s involvement consists in public education to eliminate common myths concerning dope use, and in informing legislators of public sentiment. At Buff Slate, a letter writing campaign was organized, and a table set up in the Union with sample letters, stamps and stationary. ISO letters were written in one week as a result of NYPIRG educates In other examples of NYPIRG actions, actual students working with alternate energy are constructing windmills and solar collectors to be tested for home use. Models are being made for use in demonstrations at high schools, fairs, and conventions Food Day, scheduled for April 21. is a national project to which NYPIRG is contributing. Its aim is to make the public aware of the cost and nutritive deficiency of many American foods. Organizers hope to educate the public through demonstrations, classes, low-cost nutritous meals, displays in schools and printed fact sheets. More concrete action can take place through the establishment of community canneries, farmers’ markers, urban gardens, and coops. NYPIRG could be summarized as an unusual organization having seven professionals on full-time salaries. Their experience, permenance, and resources enable part-time volunteers to work on projects that are ongoing, despite rapid student turnover. The moral of the day was probably that individuals can cause decisive change. As Steve Vitoff concluded, “NYPIRG is the channel for idealism.” Wednesday, 30 March 1977 The Spectrum Page three . . �"•-s ytsr°G Walk-a-thon �Piiiiw, by Margie Gross Spectrum Staff Writer The Buffalo Boot Brigade will in the twenty-mile March of National Foundation participate — Dimes annual Walk-a-thon to help fight birth defects Sunday, May 15th. A crowd of 5,000 is expected to depart from the Marine Midland Center on Main Street, accompanied on the first leg of the trek by local drum and bugle corps. Walkers raise funds for the National Foundation (NF) by seeking sponsors who will pledge a certain amount of money per completed mile. Businesses in the Buffalo area have donated prizes to be awarded to winners in such categories as the person who obtains the most sponsors, the walker with the fleetest feet, and the youngest and oldest walkers. The prizes range from a color TV and a ten-speed bike to a basketball encased in a giant 14-inch gum ball supplied by the Ford Gum and Machine Co. of Every year, one out of every twelve American born infants sufflbrs abnormalities of prenatal origin Such as mental retardation, missing limbs, defective blood cells or metabolic imbalances.

Woody Vasulka, former innovator arid currently a resident video artist at this University, said, “The notion of these elements became the basis of what is now called ‘video art’.” video With the advent of the video Nam June Paik.

In 1970 an alternative media conference was held at Goddard College. Video and other media enthusiasts gathered together, spouted theories, altered their states of consciousness, held seminars, and screened hours of tape. This event provided the impetus for a movement which in the past five years has a into “video ■crystallized happening.” Soon after the conference, video declared its independence from conventional television, as defiantly from spoke it monitors in public galleries. David Silver said eloquently in his article, “Transforming TV,” form wild juxapositions and sardonically distortions contrasting with the strict predictabilities of broadcast — TV,” in which all moverrlents were perpetually distributed through a kaleidoscope arrangement, an example of video used concept ually.

This differed from image processing because it focused on the presentation of an idea rather than an image. Lastly, video was defined as documentary a device exploring events of social or by significance individual recording real occurences. Vasulka spoke of an early exhibition by Howard Weiss, entitled “Video as a Creative Medium.” “It was a whole generic code of what was later to be proclaimed video art, contained in one exhibit,” Valsuka said. “I’ve seen more precise definition, more socially hidden concepts but, 1 have not seen a significant contribution to these concepts since.” The exhibit had a number of monitors dispalying different events. At first sight one was presented with an empty screen. Within a matter of seconds the viewer watched himself entering the room, a dislocation of real time and an example of a documentary.

Wednesday, 30 March 1977 �The Ramonesand The Dictators bring punk rock to Buffalo State * n ’ band realized his full potential he was promoted to lead singer (“although he had never taken singing lessons, as hard as that is to believe”). And it was with this conglomeration that the Dictators played that glitter rock capital club, The Coventry in New York, and recorded their now legendary 1975 masterpiece, The Dictators Go Girl Crazy. And low, these many months have passed and the album still stands as a classic, untouchable album, as it contained much of the message from TWG and some of the nastiest rock and roll recorded to date. (For those of you that cannot wait for the new ‘Tator’s LP, tentatively titled Manifest Destiny, you might want to pick on their earlier effort, for while the album is unusually very hard to obtain these days, many copies have recently turned up in this city.) ’76 and ’76 were not good years for the band. While their album received much cjritical acclaim, record sales were low and alas it wasn’t soon after that Epic dropped the band. This was all despite the fact that their single of “California Sun” went top ten in places such as Ftance and elsewhere. On top of this Andy left the band for a while, dissatisfied with direction and feeling that they weren’t going anywhere. Perhaps the two most memorable instances of this period occurred when Handsome Dick cracked a mike stand over a certain Wayne County’s head (but more on that some other time, O.K.?) and when they performed at the Annual Miss Nude America show at the Beacon theatre in New York City. by Dimitri Papadopoulos Contributing Editor Some preliminary comments: Friday’s concert at Buffalo State College with the Dictators and The Ramones may have been the greatest act of rock and roll since Aerosmith, Mott the Hoople and The Dolls battled it out in Kleinhans some three years ago. More important, it was or should I signify “event” the first Buffalo Concert which featured so-called “punk rock” as the main calling — — card. Also, the concert was produced in the atmosphere required to achieve the impact and atmosphere needed by the two bands that shared the bill. Remember that Television, another great band from the New York area, had just opened the Peter Gabriel concert a week ago. While the concert proved to be a tour-de-force (of course) it suffered from a lack of promotion from the people in radioland and from the cavernous bedlam of the Century theatre. But it was totally different this time and the joke is on all you non-believers. The opening act was the Dictators, who are a powerful band and are as deadly as buzzards circling over a freshly cited meat dish. Just look at the way their entourage takes over the stage like a goddamn army. Certainly The Dictators were in prime form last Friday. They have just completed a tour with Kiss and a few intermingled dates with ZZ Top. - - Who are they? Because many of you have no idea as to who these guys are, so the following is a short history of the band: Andy Shemoff was going to the State University at New Paltz around ’72-73 and began putting out his own rock and roll fanzine, Teenage Wasteland Gazzette. Instead of being one of informative stories, plus pix and discographies like the ones that were quite prevalent at the time, TWG was different. Much of the material covered such things as watching Carol Wayne, Joe Bolton and Fred Mertz on television and going to get drunk on Long Island. As history has proven, it became one of the most popular fanzines of its time. But Andy soon saw that the full thrust of his visions could not be expressed through the limitations of this fanzine and so he came up with the idea of a band. The first vesicle of the Dictators included Andy on bass, Ross (The Boss) Funicello on lead guitar, Scott (Top Ten) Kempner on rhythm and a variety of drummers of which a guy named Stu Boy King lasted the longest. Later the Dictators were enhanced by the likes of one Richie Blum, who is known to all of us today as Handsome Dick Manitoba. In the beginning Handsome Dick was the roadie and cook for the band, but later after the rest of the know something special is being cooked up. Sure enough the band launches into their great “The Next Big Thing,” with that great chorus made up from the same words and The Tators are starting to kick some ass. Their whew next number “Weekend” a sort of anthem about that time to go a bit insane, gets some heavy heavy duty crowd response. Then its into “Strong, Fast and Scientific, which is an extension of sorts on the main Pictator’s theme television rules the planet. Hell no, television doesn’t even come off as powerful as an ant’s fart when these boys whip into a little number called “Master Race Rock.” Check out some of the lyrics: - — “We ’re the members of the master race Got no style, got no grace “Sleep all night, sleep all day Nothing good on TV anyway” We’ve reached a higher spiritual plain It is so hard, I can’t explain. ” But let’s not forget the other talent circulating here. Ross the Boss adds some excellent bumble bee (stinging) guitar to the cut and the bass break by The Animal is truly invigorating. Some excellent riff rock and then it’s time for “Two Tub Man” a theme song of sorts for Handsome Dick who in his own time has been more than a welter weight enigma. A really long boogie inspired by Funicello opens this number, proving that the Dictators can trade licks with the best of them. More devastation and off they go to the sound of thunderous applause. But of course, there’s time for one more which happens to be another new killer, entitled Backseat Boogie, and I bet you can all guess what that’s about. You devils, you! — Intelligent punks So off go the Dictators to the sanctum of the backstage area, proving once and for all that punks can be intelligent as well as masterful musicians. Surely they have Grand tradition won the crowd over with their infectious teenage stance. At any rate and in the grand show/biz tradition these So where does that leave the Ramones? I mean, hell, after two events captured the minds of many rock fans and just the Dictators, even Led Zeppelin sounds like tinker toy when things seemingly began to crumble, much like the music. But by no means did the Ramones get blown off Dolls before them, the Dictators were on everyone’s the stage, yet I have this uneasy feeling that maybe a more tongues again. Naturally the band started gigging again, comfortable lineup could have been arranged. Ya see The including an amazing first appearance at C.B.G.B.’s which Dictators are really a concert band, while the Ramones had the new band in fine form. should at best be considered a fun, dance band. like Dispensing with a lot of unnecessary trivia, we are stars, The Ramones are a brainless entity, yet they are not again brought up to the scenario of last Friday’s concert, wimps by anyone’s standards. and so we have the new band which consists of: Andy, But'then they came out: the kids, the kings, the ones keyboards, vocals, songwriter; The Boss, lead guitar and The Ramones. And then it was the usual “Good vocals; Top Ten, Rhythm; Handsome Dick Manitoba, lead Evening, we’re the Ramones” and bam, bam, bam. Their vocalist and human dynamo; and new guys Rick Teeter, opening piece as always was an impressive “You’re A Loud drums and vocals; and Mark “The Animal” Mendozza, Mouth Baby, You Better Shut It Up” and needless to say bass. things started off on an energetic level. Then a quick, Their first number, “Science Gone Too far,” is one quick, quick “Beat On the Brat” and a sizzling “Blitzkreig which no doubt will be on their newest album, scheduled Bop.” to be released in May. This song, demonstrates the band’s Dee Dee blew up both of his two bass guitars and that sociological awareness, yet captures it not in the sarcastic distracted a bit from what else would have been a flawless manner of their earlier works.

Of course Johnny was as violent and as comes closer to bands like Aerosmith and Kiss than to aggressive as evei- as he batted away on his sky blue own maniacial attitude.

And when the band jumped into the medly of “Havanna Affair,” “Today Your Love, Tomorrow the .World,” the rockin’ “California Sun.” “Judy Is a Punk,” “I Don’t Wanna Walk Around With You,” it seriously looked as if the band was gonna cause an orgasmic epidemic amidst the shouts and cheering after that dazzling finale.

Some of Wilson’s well known productions include Lemon Sky which made its world premiere in Buffalo, and the Hot L Baltimore, which was the foundation for the television series by the same name. It is rumored that the Hot L Baltimore was inspired by the Hotel Lafayette; Wilson resided there during a stay in , Buffalo. The Rimers of Eldritch places the audience in the role of jury and judge presiding over the trial of the townsfolk. The evidence is brought before us in a series of non-sequential flashbacks as we form an opinion on the dying town. Eldritch, as one of the characters tells us, was a mining town, and when the coal gave out, all the inhabitants moved off, leaving a small group of residents to try to keep the ghost town and its memories alive. Ax a small town we observe the many ailments Eldritch is afflicted with gossip, corruption and hypocrisy as we watch the disease grow. The play is truly a superb literary achievement. The production will be presented April 15, 16 and 17 at the State College at Buffalo in Upton Hall Auditorium. Tickets are free - better in fact than disco will ever be for there are no set rules. The dance takes form according to the interaction between body and soul. Let me conclude by saying that when the music is provided by the Ramones the dance is usually uninhibited Some final notes: The concert was a sellout, which just goes to show that bad-ass rock and roll, especially the type as spirited and sociologically important as this cannot be kept from the kids that love the stuff. Many people that attended the concert had never heard either of the two bands perform live (much less their records), but by the end of this concert only a few dubious members remained. The others? Many of them had to be forced from the tables on top of which they were dancing. As for the fans that knew what to expect, they were as ecstatic as could be believed. Later, the crowd is spilling out from Moot Hall. Many are dancing. Others strum imaginary guitars. But the majority remain screaming, letting off a particular steam. All share a common bond; an esorteric sense of energy release. Thank you Buffalo State College. Thank you Ramones and Dictators. Rock Lives!!

The Cubs aren’t reilly that bad, but fifth place should be theirs. Expos manager Dick Williams will be pulling a few surprises he’ll have to. Picking up Tony Perez and Dave Cash, the Expos right side of the infield is superb. But what-about the rest of the infield and outfield? Let’s just say that the Expos have no place to go but up. It’s showdown time in the Wild Wild West with the Reds and Dodgers fighting it out tooth and nail. The Reds will be as strong as ever. Johnny Bench, MVP Joe Morgan, Pete Rose, MVP runner-up George Foster, are all worth their weight in gold, but the Redlfegs are indeed vulnerable. Don Gullett was the Reds’ mound ace, but without him, what will happen? The Reds have made some acquisitions but their mound staff is not outstanding. The Dodgers made only one trade but it may catipult them into first place. Exit Bill Buckner and enter Rick Monday. Teaming up with Monday in the outfield will be Reggie Smith and Dusty Baker. The infield has remained intact for four seasons and probably will for four more. The key to the Dodger success will be their aces. You can be sure that Don Sutton, Doug Rau, Rick Rhoden, Tommy John and Burt Hooton could make the difference in a new The big question in the National League East is, will the sophomore jinx follow Danny Ozark and his Philadelphia squad as they set out in search of their second consecutive Divisional Title? The answer is no. But you can be sure that the keystone confrontation between the Phillies and the Pirates will be a tough one. Now that the Phillies have tasted victory, they want more. The departure of Dave Cash and Dick Allen might hurt the Phillies, but the two vacancies will be adequately filled. Tending firstbase will be Ex-Pirate Richie Hebner while second is in the hands of either Ted Sizemore or Davey Johnson. Other than that, the Phillies are solid. Stars Mike Schmidt, Greg Luzinski and other fine ballplayers return, but the Phillies secret weapon is their arms. Ozark believes that this is the best pitching staff the Phillies have ever had. With a five man rotation headed by Steve Carlton, who’s going to argue? The bullpen is solid too. - / Surprises for Pirates The always potent Pirates will be applying pressure again this year, but the Bugs are in for a few surprises. After last year’s campaign, Pittsburgh realized they needed a stronger pitching staff. They shored up their bullpen, but unfortunately stripped themselves of a lot of manpower. They got relievers Rich Gossage, Terry Forster and Grant Jackson, in addition to infielder Phil Garner. The awesome outfield of Dave Parker, Bill Robinson and A1 Oliver remains intact, but the infield is filled wjth questions. With the return of third baseman Ken Reitz, stability is once again restored to the St. Louis infield. Anchoring the Cardinals once again will be Lou Brock and Ted Simmons. It will be hard to crack into first place but a top notch pitching staff including Larry helps, and the Cardinals have one Dierker, Bob Forsch, and A1 Hrabosky. What can you say about the New York Mets not much. With an outfield that has as much trouble catching the ball as it does throwing it, the Mets pitching staff as usual will keep the club afloat. They’ll clinch fourth place cut it won’t be a team effort. — — Chicago in the fifth The Chicago Cubs have a new look. Picking up Bobby Murcer, Bill Buckner, Greg Gross and Ivan DeJesus the Cubs have four new solid starters. With a staff of Ray Burris, Rick Reuschel and others things Dodger dynasty. The Reds and Dodgers are a tough act to follow, but the Braves don’t have to worry since third place is the best they’ll achieve. After trading for Jeff Burroughs, the Braves have added a new punch to their lineup that includes Rowland Office, Gary Matthews and Willie Montanez. The cocky Braves have a notable staff headed by Andy Messersmith, Phil Niekro, Dick Ruthven and Mike Marshall. - Who’s on first? San Diego certainly likes free-agents; the acquired three Gene Tenace, George Hendrick and Rollie Fingers. They also have a pretty good looking staff starring Randy Jones. But a rookie doubleplay combination may be the Padres demise. “Who’s on first and where the hell is everyone else” is the slogan Giant fans will be yelling this spring. Acquiring Bill Madlock may have been the steal of the century. For a team that averaged 1.3 errors per game last season, thank God the Giants have a sound pitching staff. If they can strike everyone out, the Giants have it made. Lastly, the Astros aren’t bad, they’re just not good. The uniform the Astros sport is almost as it’s revolting as the team’s pitching staff horrendous. . — — Lacrosse club dropped first game against Slippery Rock The Lacrosse Club’s preseason did not go exactly as planned. The Bulls dropped their only exhibition game to Slippery Rock, 10-8 at ElUcott on Saturday. From the opening face-off it was a close, wild battle fought in three inches of snow and mud. “All that ooze made running and scooping the ball tougher. It was really a long day,” said center midfielder Steve Hackeling. Coach Perry O. Hanson 111 thought the team played well. He did not want to make excuses, however, saying that there were differences in the way both teams prepared for the scrimmage. Coach Hanson lamented, “This was the first chance we had to get outside. We only practiced in the gym or tennis courts. Slippery Rock has a field house and their field conditions were considerably superior. In general, we had no chance to simulate game conditions and they did. Our play was satisfactory, theirs was better.” Slippery Rock had the edge all day. They scored first and then again before William Biggs put the Bulls into the game with a strong man-on-man goal. Buffalo kept it close, scoring twice on man-up plays by Frank Massaro and Roland Garrow, but still found themselves trailing 7-3 at the half. Hanson’s speech at halftime fired the Bulls up, and they came out shooting. In the second half. Rich Morgan picked up two goals, Biggs got his second and Dave Kaplan scored. The Bulls tied the game at 8 going into the fourth quarter. It was clear that fatigue was playing a major role at this point. The poor conditions and the tough team from Slippery Rock seemed a might too much for the Bulls. Slippery Rock scored two goals in the final period to earn the win. “We’ll be ready for Monroe Community College,” promised Frank Massaro. That is at home, on April 18, at 4 p.m. behind Clark Hall.

Buffalo’s record now stands at 6-3. The Bulls were paced by Kevin Mahoney (six goals—3assists) and Mark Schumacher (8 assists). Buffalo, coming off last week’s victory over second ranked Princeton University, looked disorganized and sluggish at the game’s Outset, as R.I.T. jumped to an early 8-3 lead. The Tigers, essentially a one-man gang led by All-American Dave Cohn, seemed more conditioned and poised. Cohn was all over the court in the first half, throwing the length of the Bubble, and making timely passes and catches. The Bulls unimpressively hung on and trailed at halftime, 13-10. After the intermission Buffalo pulled itself together. They played air-tight defense, mixed short, middle and long-range passes effectively, and made few mechanical or mental errors. The Bulls rotated defenders on Cohn, overplaying his overhand wrist flip which had destroyed them in the first half. As Cohn became ineffective, RIT collapsed. Buffalo’s Kevin Luks made several key leg blocks of Tiger passes. Both Luks (two goals—three assists) and Kevin Miller (three goals—two assists) came alive in the second half. Mitch Jerome had 4 big night with four goals and three assists, while Gary Stuber added five clutch goals. The Bulls travel to Pittsburgh next month for the Carnegie-Mellon Spring Festival, where they hope to continue their winning ways against Carnegie-Mellon and powerful Oberlin College. Baseball Bulls in for a learning experience by Joy Clark Assistant Sports Editor There will be a lot of question marks in the lineup for this year’s baseball Bulls, who departed for their annual Florida trip yesterday. Fourteen players, including seven pitchers and the nation’s leading hitter, John Buszka, graduated last year, and left coach Bill Monkarsh with a largely inexperienced squad. “This will be a learning season,” commented Monkarsh. “They have to learn to play the game at this level.” The Bulls are coming off one of the best seasons in Buffalb’s history. They were 22-8 for their northern schedule including an 11-game winning streak and a 13-1 record at Peelle Field. The Bulls, led by Buszka, led the nation in team batting (.361) and made the finals of the ECAC playoffs. Five of the Bulls were drafted in the Major League draft this past winter. The biggest question mark is on the mound. Almost half of the pitching staff (6 out of 13) is made up of freshmen. But there are a few veterans to give the team some sorely needed stability. Senior lefthander Bill Casbolt should fill the gap caused by the graduation of ace Jim Niewczyk. Junior Dave Borsuk, another lefty, hasn’t seen much action in the last two years, but Monkarsh plans to play him more this year. Monkarsh was expecting a lot from righty Mike Betz, but Betz sustained an ankle injury that puts him out of action indefinitely. Sophomore righty Rick Brooks had a great Fall, and should help pick up the slack. Among the rookies, freshman Bil Coomber and transfer Craig Warthling both look promising. According to Monkarsh, “Coomber’s learning; with experience, he should be a tremendous pitcher.” Junior Warthling, a righty like Coomber, . .. looks tremendous. His ball is moving all the time,” according to Monkarsh. “All the freshmen are green,” said the coach. “They need game experience. I’ll have to see what they can do and can’t do.” The Bulls strong point is their infield. Tri-captains Jack Kaminska at shortstop and secondbaseman Mike Groh, a second-team ECAC All-Star will anchor the infield; aided by first baseman John White and Ed Durkin at third. “The infield is as good as we’ve ever had,’.’ sat Monkarsh. The other tri-captain, Mike Dixon, will hold down the catchin duties it' he stays healthy. “Our catching will be strong if Dixon’s arm i strong he’s as good as any catcher’,” said Monkarsh. Freshman Jim Wojcik, with his good speed and strong arm, has nailed down center field while sophomore John Pederson will be handling duties in right. Three freshmen will be vying for the leftfield spot while in Florida. “The job will go to whoever does the best job hitting and the best job defensively. I'm sure the position will be ably filled,” commented Monkarsh. Monkarsh plans to take advantage of the team’s speed with a lot of hit-and-runs and steals. “The trouble is that we’re not going to be able to steal first, so we’ll have to scratch for our runs,” said Monkarsh. According to Monkarsh, the outlook to bright. “1 hope to play 5Q0 this year and then have a great season after that,” he concluded. Buffalo’s home opener will be against Canisius April 21 at Peelle Field at 3 p.m “ - Page thirteen . The Spectrum .

Senate To boycott uncooperative banks \ by John H. Reiss overhang factor in the checking account. He explained that ■ this checking balance which rarely falls below $25,009 is most important to the banks since they can invest a substantial portion of it. average Campus Editor Student Association (SA) passed by 27-1 Thursday, the Athletic Constitutional Afnendment which will provide athletics with the four year financial stability needed to open up avenues for much needed outside The support. SA also voted by acclamation to condemn and boycott Buffalo banks refusing to buy $3 million in short term Housing Finance Agency (HFA) bonds. Purchase of the bonds has been required by the State Division of the Budget as a local sign of support for Amherst Campus construction. Later that evening, Sub-Board 1 unanimously endorsed a three point proposal to: support the SA boycott, remove all Sub Board funds from Marine Midland Bank and ask each respective student goverment (the Student Bar Association, Medical School Polity, Graduate Student Association, Millard Filmore College, Dental School Association, and SA) to withdraw all personal funds from the reluctant'banks. Those banks include Liberty National, Manufacturers and Traders (M & T) and Marine Midland. The SA proposal specifically condemned “any bank that turns its back on the needs of the local community and calls for an all out boycott of these institutions should they not support the purchase of $3 million in HFA bonds as a show of support for North Campus Construction which the state requires to restart.” SA President Dennis Delia indicated the boycott “has already shown signs of support” and claimed he believes “it will be absolutely successful.” The local banks are presently reviewing the situation and will disclose their final decision next week. According to Sub Board Treasurer Arthur Lalonde, the factor that makes the student bank accounts so desirable to a bank is not the overall dollar volume but, the Financial stability approved The Athletic Amendment an in undergraduate referendum assures athletic departments that however much money they receive next year, the departments will be appropriated the same amount over the next four years. This financial stability will allow athletic departments to search for outside support, an impossibility before the passage of the amendment. Previously, organizations such as the UB Foundation were unwilling to offer financial support to athletics since, they felt, the team’s existence depended solely on the year to year whims of SA. With the ratification of the amendment, poteqtial supporters can be assured athletics will receive a set amount of funding over a long period of time. One important consequence of the amendment’s passage has been UB Foundation President John Carter’s verbal assurance to Delia of a $15,000 contribution to the Athletic Department. This money, according to Delia, could finance the return of football to this University next fall. Delia in fact, felt the chances are excellent that football will be a reality come September. Whole new era According to Delia $15,000 is all that is needed to fund football’s return to Buffalo. Buffalo would compete in NCAA Division III and plans are being made to schedule games with such schools as Canisius, Brockport, Alfred and Cortland. Bill Dando, Buffalo’s golf coach, would presumably take over as head coach of the football team with wrestler and track men possibly forming the core of the‘Squad. Delia claimed a “whole new era” for Buffalo athletics is about to begin. The SA Senate also addressed the question of tie line service for student organizations. All such service was terminated by last week without prior notice by the Administration. University Comptroller William Baumer apologized for the curtness and inconvenience of his sudden actions but, according to Delia, “refused to return the tie lines back to the way they were.” Scrutiny Delia said he will meet tomorrow with Baumer, University President Robert Ketter, Vice President for Student Affairs Richard Siggelkow, Vice President for Finance and Management Edward Doty, Associate Director of Student Affairs Ronald Stein and students to “discuss the alternatives and hardships and to try to rectify the situation.” SA Treasurer Neil Seiden explained that across the board cuts may have to be implimented in order to compensate for the anticipated 5 percent SA budget deficit. He said the deficit rose since less students eventually enrolled at this University than had been anticipated when the budget was prepared. Seiden also indicated that in the future, student groups will be required to detail how they intend to spend money appropriated to them in advance. The organizations will then be monitored to assure that the money is spent as specified. The Senate elected former SA Executive Vice President Steve Spiegel and John Centra as at large senators from off-campus and the dorms respectively. Spiegel described himself as a hard worker who is well versed in student politics. “I still care and want to help,” Spiegel said. Centra called for more involvement in the Student Senate. Both won by large margins. The Senate also voted by acclamation to write a letter to the students of this University asking them not to patronize Cavages Records Inc. The letter will be printed as an advertisement in The Spectrum. SA Executive Vice President Andy Lalonde opened the meeting by detailing the “non-achievements” the most recent SA Administration and, called for a “Sounding out of student opinion” in order to form effective policies. The Spectrum State University of New York Vol. 27, No. 71 at Buffalo Monday, 28 Match 1977 English Department Fiedler feels ‘relief* at the end of his term as chairman by Andrea Rudner Staff Writer Spectrum Leslie Fiedler’s reaction to the upcoming end of his three year term as chairman of the English Department is one of relief. “It’s an exhausting and time consuming job” he said in an interview Monday. “It has convinced me that I never want to be chairman again. But that’s not meant in a malicious sense.” He said the positive aspects of his experience included having the opportunity to play an important role in this exciting, non traditional department, settling up a program of visiting scholars and writers including such people as Anthony Burgess, Harold Berger, Grace Paley, and Donald Bartholeme, and learning how to use ingenuity to accomplish a great deal with ever-shrinking resources Fiedler, who holds a B.A. from New York University, an M.A. and a PhD .from the University of and has done Wisconsin, Harvard work at post-doctoral summed the University up liked it a experience succinctly. “I lot.” The next chairman, whose term will begin in September, is being chosen this semester. Many students are unaware of how a chairman is selected. They sometimes seem to be permanent fixtures of the University. The English Department begins by holding a number of votes and discussions. Eventually the field is narrowed down to a small number of candidates and a final discussion and vote are held. There are now three candidates, and according to Fiedler, the new chairman will be announced by the second week in April. Graduate students and faculty members participate in the voting process. “We’re an extremely democratic department and it’s an extremely complicated process,” he said. Theoretically, it is President Robert Ketter’s responsibility to appoint chairs to the departments. This responsibility is usually delegated to the various Provosts. In the case of the English Department the Provost of the Faculty of Arts and Letters “lets himself be guided by the vote of the department,” Fiedler said. The summer chairman will be Ed .Dryden, currently one of Fiedler’s two Associate Chairmen. The next chairman, along with most of the rest of the University, will face the growing problem of rapidly shrinking Fiedler financial resources. continually placed emphasis upon this as an important role of the chairman. “A large amount of time is spent imploring, begging, whimpering, asking for money.” When the money is simply unavailable the chairman’s job is to help establish priorities. Graduate program The English Department and the rest of the humanities must also deal with the lack of jobs in their fields. “What do you do with your Graduate Program when the for which are jobs you presumably training them are disappearing?” asked Fiedler. What they have done is cut their Graduate Program in half and redoubled their efforts to find jobs for those that need them. They have been remarkably successful, according to Fiedler. In part this stems from the fact that the department places a on emphasis heavy inter-disciplinary work. This gives the job seeker an edge over those -continued on page 2 Leslie Fiedler �9J Stealer. M —continued from page 1— M .. students who have come from more traditional departments. “It’s good in a special way” he said, “It’s a non-traditional, opem experimental department. He cites A1 Cook, chairman of the English Department during times of expanding resources, as the man who is behind much of this uniqueness. “He deserves absolute credit” he said. “We hire people because we think they have lively minds and we would like to have them here as part of our community ,”Jnedler said. On the undergraduate level, Fiedler noted that the number of English majors in English classes was decreasing. He has tried to reshape the curriculum to meet their needs as well as the needs of majors “Another thing a chairman does is deal with personnel members. This is a department with 72 members and 72 prima donnas.

He is now reviewing an outline of a journalism program that would involve the English and would be in Department with The Spectrum. conjunction He expressed personal interest in teaching a non-fiction, journalism course in the future. As pertains to the financial future of the department, Fiedler feels that it is still possible to move ahead. “What I learned is that even in times of shrinking resources one is able to move forward in.certain ways, you just have to be more and more does not ingenious.” He support the appeal for more stringent requirements. He feels that it is a “terrible thing” when students are forced to take classes they do not wish to take and teachers are made to teach classes they do not want to teach. “It’s impossible to get back to the good old days. At various places in the country you get this cry of ‘back to basics,’ lets have stricter and more grading he said. “It requirements, already looks too much like the 1970V are turning into the 1950's, jve don’t have to do that ” in the English Department too. The only way we can do it is to find new solutions for new problems.” Relocated at Amherst Fiedler’s large office window overlooks the huge expanse of and unfinished rubble construction work that is the Amherst Campus. One problem facing all departments that have been relocated on the North Campus is isolation and internal loss of cohesion. All English graduate courses are taught there, all the offices are there, but the undergraduate courses are still on Main Street. An oft repeated complaint about the English Department is that Graduate students teach most of the English Composition courses. Fiedler acknowledged that Introductory courses taught by experienced senior faculty members might induce students to continue taking English courses, and said that he has urged the faculty to do this. He pointed out though, that the department does try to support financially through T. A. lines, as many graduate students as it can, and also that an important part . of a graduate student’s training is learning how to teach. “I would never have become a teacher if I hadn’t been assigned a Teaching Assistantship at the University of Wisconsin in 1939. I wouldn’t have known how much I liked It.” Although Leslie Fiedler is an acclaimed writer, he defines himself as a teacher. During his term he has taught a Childrens Literature course, a a course on Distopian Views in Literature and is currently teaching a seminar on Walt Whitman. “I’m a teacher who also writes. I’ve been a teacher nearly forty years now. That’s my primary commitment. Writing is a lonely occupation. The nice thing about teaching is that you’re engaged with human beings all the time. Real living men and women. And that’s great.” After forty years of teaching and only one sabbatical (during UFW and Teamsters With graduation approaching, your thoughts are probably on plans for the future.

When he does return, in the fall of 1978, he will teach both undergraduate and graduate courses. Leslie Feidler does have a favorite author, although he grimaced when asked to choose from among the multitudes. “I suppose if I had to pick, it would be Mark Twain. He sits in between popular literature and high literature. Besides, he’s funny. And besides, he lived in Buffalo and hated it.” Special to The Spectrum With their major competitor, the Teamsters Union, peaceably out ot the race, Cesar Chavez’ United Farm Workers (UFW) union has begun a massive campaign to win the confidence of California’s many farm laborer?. . Although sources close to California’s Agricultural Labor Relations Board (ALRB), which oversees farm worker secret-ballot elections for union representation, believe the UFW’s fear that the board will not be refunded when appropriations run out this June is unfounded, spokesmen for the UFW say they hope to have 82 percent of California’s 300,000 field workers organized before the crucial period. California is the only state in the country which has a farm labor law, so when success is in sight for the UFW there, organizers will move into other agricultural states from Texas to New York to establish similar laws that protect the rights of farm workers, who historically have been some of the most exploited laborers. Already activities have begun in Texas. The Texas Farm Workers union, an off-spring of the UFW, has helped bring a bill before the Texas House Agriculture Committee which calls for the adoption of an agricultural labor relations act similar to California’s. (CPS) — Educate As in California, students on college and university campuses have been solicited by union organizers to aid in money gathering activities and in efforts to win the public’s sympathy. The students’ work proved invaluable in Calilornia where they organized boycotts of non-union farm products and helped gather signatures for an initiative that would have, if passed, ensured the financing of the ALRB An aide of the sponsor of the Texas bill. Rep. Gonzalo Barrientos, said they don t expect the bill to pass, “especially since the industry-allied agriculture committee must approve it." but that its intention is “mostly to educate people about the farm workers’ plight." itinued Page two .

The event was co-sponsored by The Student Help Center and The International Living Center (ILC). Leading the panel was Joseph Masling, a professor in the Psychology Department here. He was joined on the dais by two foreign students doing graduate work at this University and two,American students now living in Red Jacket who studied abroad.

Masling pointed out that psychologists and sociologists agree that we get our sense of what we are and who we are from those with whom we interact, especially from our primary group, the family. The foreign student is separated from his primary group and, being in a foreign country, often experiences normlessness.” This condition leads to loneliness and a feeling-of alienation which reveals itself in “hypersensitivity and touchiness.” Sensitivity group One could readily see this theory had become a reality in the comments from the audience when the discussion was opened to the floor. What had begun as a forum quickly turned into a sensitivity group with students from all over the world relating their personal experiences in a variety of soft and harsh accents. This was perhaps the most informative and moving portion of the evening.

As Masling pointed out, “There is nothing you can’t learn from a club in the U.Sl, right down to how to have sex!” But all these replies appeared to be a feeble attempt to play the devil’s advocate. The panel members were trying to anger some of the foreign students out of a certain apathy that leads them to accept their situations and the hostility, or at least the unfriendlihess they encounter daily. If this panel discussion accomplished nothing else, it made some foreign students aware of their common problems and common needs. It also allowed them to release some pent up emotion which may help them in dealing with their Buffalo environment; • The students did qualify their remarks by saying that they were speaking in generalities and that there were, of course, exceptions. Five to ten American students participated in the discussion. These Americans appeared warm, friendly and concerned about the foreign students. Many of them had studied abroad and knew the feeling of being a “stranger in a "strange land.” This gives them an insight that no one who has not gone abroad” could really experience.

Before the law establishing California’s ALRB was passed in 1974, there was a great deal of debate ahdmany physical confrontations between UFW members, Teamsters and farm owners, many of whom are against unionization of their mostly migrant workers. But on March 10, with the signing of a peace treaty between the Western Conference of Teamsters and the UFW, it seems half the battle is over for Chavez’ union, which has been vying for representative control over field workers for many years by using emotional tactics centered on the heritage of the mostly Chicano workers as well as classic organizing techniques. Fed up The signing of the pact by Teamster President Frank E. Fitzsimmons, M.E. Anderson, head of the western conference, and Chavez essentially ends all competition for union representation of farm workers in California and the 12 other Western states that come under jurisdiction of Anderson’s unit. Growers were generally pleased with the pact according to newspaper accounts, since they feel competition between the two unions only served to cause chaos and push wage and benefit demands higher and higher. The agreement is in effect for five years, during which time, Fitzsimmons and Chavez said, “good-faith negotiations” between them for a nationwide pact will be made. Anderson said the best way to describe the historic Teamster decision to bow out and the UFW’s acceptance of the treaty was that “both unions were just fed up with fighting one another.” Also, he said, they realized conflicts between the unions are not in the best interests of the worker. The UFW has spent over $10 million in its organizing manuevers, with the backing of the AFL-CIO. The Los Angeles Times reported a “source” as saying the Teamsters had ipent some S7 million. To show for the investment, during peak season the UFW has contracts with growers which represent twice as many workers as the Teamsters’ contracts; 40,000 as compared to 20,000 workers represented. The pact provides that the Teamsters will honor the contracts that are now valid but will not seek to renew them when they expire. Most of the contracts terminate by the end of next year, Anderson said. Otherwise, the Teamsters will continue to organize non-field agricultural workers, like truck drivers, warehousemen, and those that work in canneries, and frozen and other food processing companies. All field and on-the-farm related workers will be organized by the UFW, unless they vote to remain independent from any union. After signing the peace pact, both Chavez and Fitzsimmons prbmised, whenever possible, to mutually help one another in organizing and other activities.

The Assemby version, sponsored by Assembly Codes Chairperson Richard (DL-NY), Gottfried is a “true decriminalization bill,” according to NYPIRG Director Paul Maggiotto, He termed the one sponsored in the Senate by Senate Codes Chairperson Douglass Barclay (R-Oswego) “a watered-down version.” ■ Most observers feel that a decriminalization bill in some form will pass this session. Student Association of the State University (SASU) Legislative Director Joel Packer feels that “either the Barclay Bill or something close to it will pass. The Gottfried Bill is just too liberal for a lot of people.” The Gottfried Bill passed the Assembly Codes Committee last month, but has been dormant on the calendar since, reportedly because Democratic leadership does not want to e xpose the rank and file legislators to commit themselves until they found out what the Republican position will be. Too liberal Under the Gottfried Bill, possession of less than two ounces of marijuana would be a violation punishable by fines up to $100 and no jail sentences. Under the present law possession of as little as one-quarter ounce is a crime punishable by 7 years in prison. 1 Non-remunerative transfers of''up ‘to up to cine-half ounce will also be reduced to a violation. This includes gifts but not sales, and covers the vast majority of pot arrests. Cultivation of marijuana will also be punishable by a violation. There would be a scale of higher penalties for sale, or possession of larger quantities. , For example, possession of over a pound would be a class E felony (up to 4 years in prison). Sale of any amount to a minor under 16 years would also be a class E felony. All violations and Class B misdemeanors enforceable by either a ticket or summons but not by arrest. Furthermore, the bill allows for “adjournment in contemplation of dismissal (ACD),” making it possible for the court to vacate a conviction under the old law and grant resentencing under the new law. are Users from dealers Decriminalization has been held up for mostly by Republican years, the opposition. However, the New York Post reported last month that Senate Majority Leader Warren Anderson (R-Binghamton) is ready to back the Barclay Bill. With Anderson’s support, it is almost assured passage in the Senate. The Barclay Bill is an alternative to the “more liberal” Gottfried Bill. First, it sets the amount of marijuana that would be a violation at one and one-quarter ounces (as opposed to the two ounce limit offered by Assemblyman Gottfried). The distinction, according to Ned Cole, counsel to the Senate Codes Committee and Senator Barclay, is “purely judgment. Marijuana is dealt in primarily 1 ounce quantities. We added the quarter ounce for the borderline cases.” Essentially, he hopes to, separate the users from the dealers. Unlike Gottfried’s, the Barclay Bill does not allow for any type of transfers or for the resentencing of those convicted under the old law. The Senate bill also does not allow for cultivation of marijuana. Cole feels that if this was included in the Barclay Bill it would “shoot it right down.” Barclay defines a minor as a person under 18 years old while Gottfried sets the age at 16. Both bills allow for ADC’s as well as set the same penalties for violations. Savings , f Assemblyman Gottfried, his in decriminalization memo, listed expected savings of millions of dollars as a reason for marijuana reform. “Every year in N.Y., about 20,000 of our neighbors are arrested for simply possessing marijuana,” the memo said. “These prosecutions cost taxpayers over $30 million, and take away police and court time from real law enforcement. Thousands of lives are scarred every year. And our out-moded pot laws breed disrespect for the law among law-abiding citizens.” Cole said that the “disparity in the laws and in sentencing are major reasons for sponsoring the bill. The difference between New York City and the rest of New York Sfate is astounding. A District Attorney in New York City has announced he won’t prosecute marijuana offenders to a Grand Jury (felony charges) unless the person has ten pounds of marijuana. In upstate New York, everything over one quarter ounce would be a major bust.” Cole credits student groups, most notably the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) and SASU with leading the pro-decriminalization push. He added that, “most of the letters we are getting now are favor of in decriminalization.” Cole feels that the Barclay Bill, “is as far as the Senate will go. But he is leaving open the possibility of further' negotiations. Whatever the outcome. Cole feels it will be “better than the present law.” If a compromise is reached, the bill will probably pass before summer and become law as soon as Governor Hugh Carey signs it. A COLLEGE RING.

Since then, the membership per chapter.‘Iras risen t,o nearly equal the 1965 high.

The Pi Kappa Phi spokesman attributes his organization’s rising popularity to a change in student m attitudes as well as to the effects of an unstable national economy. Warm and cozy Fraternities an provide adjunct to classroom work, with real, live human beings, and they members a taste of give organization. Some also think'that membership might provide them with ‘in’ prospective employers.” J erry Callups, executive secretary of the Southeastern Interfraternal Conference (SIFC), concurs and adds that “running a f it Uvi i ■ i'f'1 i “r • fraternity can be like running a small business our chapters have • — budgets ranging from $18,000 to $170,000 a year.” “The fraternity provides a transferring place for students from the warm, cozy home to the cold, cruel world,” Gallup says. One advisor fraternity that student speculates preference for beer over drugs has helped stimulate Greek membership. “Kids did dope in small groups,” he explains, “but they like to get together in large groups to drink beer these days.” When they are not drinking, beer, piany chapters seem intent on displaying their scholastic and humanitarian achievements. One Oregon accounting fraternity, for instance, is helping puzzled collegians fill out their tax forms. A society at a Kentucky college is taking a collection to help pay off the medical bills incurred by a local man who is drying of cancer. And a new-born fraternity at Birmingham State College in Alabama announced in the campus newspaper that it “is not just another Southern group. It’s a National Service Fraternity founded to assemble men who hold to the principles of the Boy Scouts of America .. .” Watch your drinks Some societies are requiring that members maintain at least a 2.00 grade point average and a fraternity at a Pennsylvania college, after years of collectively poor marks, is boasting that its, members’ GPA last semester is superior to that of non-members. Most Greek representatives claim that hazing, defined usually as physical or severe mental punishment of pledges, has become less popular. SIFC Executive Secretary Gallups also believes hazing is down (“although they just may be better at hiding it”), but adds that “hijinks, doing silly things for fun, has increased.” Gallup’s hypothesis may draw credence from recent events at one campus where members of a. secret society that is sworn to “be terrible unto the wicked'and to be ever true in friendship and Add a new international dimension to your college career with a Fairly serious incidences of hazing still do occur. A University of Texas-Austin Phi Delta Theta chapter was placed on three years probation last February for coating pledges with cornflakes, mollasses, eggs and tabasco sauce and then poking several with electric cattle prods. Another UT chapter caught a six-month for suspension requiring its pledges to ingest a stomach-curdling combination of raw eggs, limburger cheese, jalapeno peppers and cod liver oil. One woman who was roughed up and threatened by 15 members of a Missouri fraternity had to be rescued from the Greek abode by two friends. She warns women of the world to “watch your drinks and drink only what the guys do. They sometimes put things in the drinks.” SOCIAL WORKERS DON’T SACRIFICE YOUR EDUCATION JUST TO GET A JOB Israel Offers Careers in Social Work. Immediate Positions Open.

In white with a blazing black print on the front commemorating that day. by Steve Lemken Special to The Spectrum (CPS) Let’s face it, the utility companies are currently playing with a stacked deck. The majority afe privately owned, government sanctioned monopolies that are providing what is rapidly becoming an extravagant service to many citizens across this country. Many of these consumers are plain pissed off, and that feeling is spreading. Citizens are organizing around the country, lobbying to get fair, more humane rates, by demonstrating and petitioning against rate increases, and demanding that the often times pro-utility regulatory commissions stand up for the household consumer. The consumer-citizen wants to put a fresh deck into this game, with the people in the dealer’s seat. Consider the following: The 52 largest light and gas conglomerates averaged a 13 percent gain in net income in 1976. That was a bit lower than the previous year’s windfall, which was 20 percent. Utilities were allowed rate hikes of $4 billion in 1975 and $2 billion in 1976. According to the industry’s house organ. Public Utilities Fortnightly, the private utilities are seeking an additional $4 billion in national increases for 1977. The mecca of money-changing and powerful defender of the status quo, Wall Street, is hooked on the profitability of utilities. For 1976, the Dow Jones industrial index climbed 11 percent and the utility stock barometer went up 22 percent. They return a steady eight percent on bond investments. The fuel adjustment clause, bestowed upon the utilities by the Federal Power Commission (FPC) during the 1973 oil embargo after they cried “low profits,” permits the utilities to pass along, to the consumer, the cost of any rise in fuel prices. - - — — \ Z'' I j'jhI / A Vi y An assortment of sizes.

Furthermore, a congressional committee last year discovered that the clause, enacted by 43 states in 1974, brought the utilities $6.5 billion in price hikes, a 400 percent kicker over their 1973 costs. Can there be any wonder why Detroit Edison received 10,000 complaints a day for two weeks after announcing a 50 percent increase in gas charges? Or why in Pittsburgh, protesters, masqueraded as ghosts to protest “phantom taxes” charged by the Duquesne Light Co., yet were never paid to the state or federal governments? And again in Denver, a coalition of 25 church, student, environmental, neighborhood, and senior citizen organizations have met with Colorado’s governor and public utility commission demanding open, accessible hearings, fair and quality utility service at the lowest possible price to consumers, and to demand an end to the fuel adjustment clause. The epitome of utility consumer price gouging can best be seen in New York City, where Consolidated Edison (Con Ed), has repeatedly beat down the people and small businesses with pollution, excessive rate hikes, tax evasion, excess profits, bad management and regulation which could put the federal overseers of CIA activities to shame. Con Ed rates tripled between 1965-75. It has received five electric rate increases since 1970, with another pending for $250 million. Its board of directors reads like a Who's Who of that city’s rich and well-connected, influential “citizens.” And for the coup de grace. Con Ed spends a huge chunk of the profits in endless self-promoting campaigns via billboards, television and radio. As that old baseball poem goes, “there is no joy in Mudville . . .” Or is there? Bright spots There have been some solid, gratifying breakthroughs for consumer-citizens in getting the regulatory commissions and legislators to respond in some humane fashion, even if it did take some throat-standing and court rulings. -continued on page 12 Monday, 28 March 1977 .

Page seven �L_ EditPrial IMPORTANT NOTICE Why GSEU failed The Spectrum’s new phone numbers, effective immediately, are: 831-5455, 831-5456, 831-5457 Take note that the numbers that were posted in last Friday’s issue of The Spectrum were incorrect. Our old phone numbers are no longer in effect. The promise of warm weather gives hope each spring that at least one cause may capture the students' imagination and be given its day. Each year of our undergraduate careers we have seen a small tide of political insurgency rise and fall over the following issues: the passage of the Reichert Prospectus for the Colleges in 1974; the Attica trials in 1975; budget cuts and the politics of academic planning in 1976. The failure of the Graduate Student Employee's Union strike referendum was especially disappointing to us because the moral question behind the Union arguments was strong. Ask Robert Ketter and Albert Somit: they will tell you about the number of cut graduate lines and the unrealistically small stipends for GAs and TAs. They can even tell you about the ways the State Legislature may cut the Tuition Assistance Plan even further. Apart from the legalisms of Union recognition, the Union leadership sought help from its constituency to make Ketter break with administrative protocol and take a dramatic, public step toward remedying the graduate student plight, if that's what it can be called. The reason the strike vote failed may be found in the fact that the wages and conditions of work of graduate students varies greatly across departmental lines. As a result, the difficulties of living on a wage standard set ten years ago, are not distributed equally among all GAs and TAs. The second reason may be that this year, unlike last, the issue of budget cuts in general is less actively protested, leaving GSEU somewhat isolated. It is also imperative to realize that many TAs and GAs either voted no or didn't vote because support for the Union may have made them suspect within their departments, or because of outright fear of administrative retribution. This last point is important for the future of the GSEU leaders, many of whom made a great personal sacrifice to further the cause of the Union. We will be watching carefully in coming months to be sure that GAs and TAs are not terminated for political reasons or quietly conforming to the status quo. GSEU's position now is very weak. The Union has succeeded, though, in forcing the Ketter administration into needed public debate on issues administrators would rather not discuss. The Union has also put forward a viable, fact-oriented analysis of the budget and the University. Their point of view, it should be remembered, was endorsed in essence by University administrators, who maintain they are constrained by law from acting on it. The specific issues addressed by the Union remain unresolved. The failure of the strike vote (and it would have been a failure even if it were one vote in favor of striking) attests to the corrupting influence of those who already have a stake in the status quo, and therefore fear administrative retribution. It is also a pointed reminder that the style of activism which flourished here in the late sixties and early seventies is inappropriate for this generation of college student, no matter how good the cause. This may be the last hopeful spring the University sees in some time. Editor-in-Chief Managing Editor Managing Editor Advertising Manager — Richard Korman — — Business Manager Arts . . .

The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. Bonds for people 1 would like to take this opportunity to clarify information which the Graduate Students Employees Union has caused to be published in The Spectrum on two separate occasions. The GSEU spoke of an incident in the Physics Department where the chairman attempted to influence the students decision as to whether or not the student decision will honor the strike, if a strike were called. Such was not the case and could not be to be the case by any stretch of the imagination. In the Wednesday issue of s The Spectrum, the GSEU disclosed the contents of construed a distributed to a limited number of graduate assistants, which the GSEU determined to be of an intimidating nature. That which was quoted in The Sped nun is as follows: “Please let me know and certainly no later than 10 o’clock tomorrow morning whether you intend to participate in the proposed GSI U strike.” Such wording can hardly be considered threatening. Let me elucidate the events which form the background of the aforesaid incident. The Assistant to the Physics Department Chairman was asked by the administration to give a report detailing the possible impact that a strike would have on the services rendered by the memo, Department. He in turn distributed a memo to faculty asking them to poll >fheir assistants to determine how their particular course would be affected. Some faculty met with students on a one to one basis, asking the student if he would honor the strike and informing the student that he would have the support of the faculty member regardless of the students decision. Other faculty members chose to distribute a questionaire. One of those questionaires fell into the hands of the GSEU, who naturally attempted to use it to their best advantage. At no point was there ever any threat against the teaching assistants expressed or implyed. The questions were asked only as a means of generating information,' information requested by persons outside the Physics Department. 1 suggest that the unfavorable voter response was not caused by intimidation by the various Departments, but rather was caused by the fact that most students do not want to lose their non-employee status, do not want to take valuable time away from their work and furthermore they do not want to bring about the creation of another power group on campus. Thank you, Boh Joseph Bhtyxics Teaching Assistun I �Hypocricy on Record Coop The following letter was sent to Vice President and Management Edward Doty. Gross mistakes on resume prices for Finance To the Editor. In reply to a letter submitted by Mr. Fred Gross regarding resume prices at University Press and two unnamed commercial printers, 1 would like to submit the following facts: 1) The price quoted for University Press is not that of a one page resume printed on ordinary (no. 24) bond paper from a camera ready original. The price quoted includes, in addition to printing, complete' preparation of a typeset mechanical from the customer’s original rough draft. This process involves some consultation about the layout of the resume and its contents. Typeset resumes are not offered by the vast majority Of commercial printers because they do not have the equipment necessary to produce typeset resumes. 2) The prices quoted by printers “A” and “B” do not include printing on no. 24 paper. The paper is far from “ordinary” since the actual wholesale cost of 500 sheets of this paper.is about $3.50 above that of sulfite bond paper. I checked the price of printing 500 sheets from a camera-ready mechanical at Latko Printing. The price on sulfite bond paper was $8.55. Latko Printing would charge an extra $5.00 for printing on ripple paper which still does not compare in value to our 24 pound paper. 3) The price structure of resumes at University Press does not include printing a camera-ready, typed mechanical. We have found that customers are rarely satisfied with the product when they compare it with the typeset resumes we have on display. When a customer requests a resume typed and printed, we send them directly to the printer because I will not assume responsibility for the printed quality of a typed resume. 4) While 1 support Mr. Gross’ efforts in his comparison shopping of resumes, I would suggest that in the future he not compare apples with oranges. His statement and statistics were not gathered with care and the results of his “investigation” are damaging to not only to University Press but also to the students who, having read his letter, will not avail themselves of the unique service that we offer. The hundreds of customers who have praised our services insist that the quality and appearance of our typeset resumes are worth every dollar spent. Linda Enke, Manager University Press I have been noticing over this semester that bpokstore ads for records have been appearing in The Spectrum. They are allowed to advertise, but the record coop is still not allowed to. As I see it, the bookstore is an organization operating under New York State support in direct competition with private enterprises in the community. In fact, the Bookstore is operating in direct competition with Cavage’s Record Store. It seems hypocritical that the Bookstore is allowed to advertise their “discount aww.wsHimiHKratimi houip records” while the Coop is not. The Bookstore doesn’t have crippling sales ceilings either. If the Cavage’s suit leads to the Coop’s closure, I see it setting a precedent leading to the closure of the FSA Bookstore. 1 would hope that you are working for a speedy resolution of the suit in the Coop’s favor. I would like to see Coop advertisements alongside the Bookstore advertisements' again. The Coop is an important cultural resource to the UB community.

Transcript service found inadequate THAT'S THE TROUBLE WITH FREE ELECTOR -YOU CAMT BE SURE WHO THEVtL VOTE FOR To the Editor. It is clear that the occupations of students after they leave the university reflect on this institution by either increasihg or by diminishing its prestige. It is also true that excellent job, graduate program, and internship placements are becoming harder and harder to procure. In view of these facts, it seems to us that it is in the university’s best interest to do whatever possible to help its students compete for these various positions. One way the university can provide this kind of help is by promptly sending academic transcripts to specified institutions. In applying to predoctoral clinical psychology internship programs and graduate schools, we have discovered that a number of institutions will not begin to review applications which are not complete; completeness, of course, is contingent on the receipt of academic franscripts. We have found U.B.’s transcript service to be inadequate. Compared to about ten other-university transcript services with which we are familiar, U.B.’s system changes the most, delivers the least, and consistently errs in its service delivery. U.B. is the only school with which we are familiar which did not forward us receipts for each transcript which they mailed. These receipts are important in letting students know that their transcript requests were received and that no accidental omissions will cause them future problems. This procedure would likely save time for transcript workers since they must now answer time-consuming individual requests of students asking for verification of the status of their files. We found long delays and incidents of clear incompetence in the handling of our transcript requests. Most of the other transcript services we used sent us receipts within two weeks of the initial requests. Several incidents will help contrast U.B.’s aware that several institutions had not,received these transcripts, an inquiry was made. When the proper file was located, the requests were found with a pencil mark on the top transcript indicating that copies should not be sent until current grades were available. Someone in the transcript office had apparently altered these requests which were filled out in ink and had thus put the student’s applications in jeopardy. The transcript worker apologized but the transcripts were already late in most cases. Another of us called the transcript office to inquire about requests placed five weeks earlier (in mid-December). After remaining on the line for about ten minutes, while workers were audibly having trouble locating the proper file, the caller was told that the transcripts would be sent out the same day. When an explanation was asked for, none was given. It was clear to the caller that the file had not been in line to be processed. In another case, a transcript requested in mid-December had not arrived at its destination by February 15. The applicant received a letter stating that he would not be considered for that graduate program because his file was not complete. In our experience the transcript service is poorly designed and appears to be poorly managed. Getting this department into shape should not be a major undertaking, but would definitely make a difference in helping students make a smooth transition from school to careers. Until these steps are taken we recommend that students request transcripts two months or more before they are due and that they call or stop by the transcript service office at least once to assure that their requests are being processed properly. service with the others. One of us requested several transcripts on December 13. On January 13, when we became Monday, Mark Ackerman Catherine Garvey Brian Lewis Scott M. Monroe Mary V. Solan to Janis M. Soma 28 March 1977 .

Since the—service is open to all University students, some who have never been to a dentist before, I feel that something should be done to prevent this from happening. Mark Teitelhaum clarification Tie line To the Editor. TRB, Old Roger Sherman had the right idea didn’t he, there at the Constitutional convention: the common people, “should have as little to do as may be about the government. They want information, and are constantly liable to be misled.” So they set up the Electoral College in Philadelphia in, 1787 to safeguard America from the common people. We honor our Founding Fathers; lean, sharp-nosed Sherman was a Founding Father; he must have been right. We have been celebrating bicentennial forebears men like John Jay who declared, “the people who own the country ought to govern it.” What are Vice President Mondale and President Carter and Senator Birch Bayh doing now, proposing to abolish the sacred College? Mondale had the audacity to quote his boss as saying, “The history of our Republic from the earliest days has been the removal of arbitrary and unjustified barriers to citizen participation in elections.” Ha! Tell that to F. F. Sherman, F. F. Jay, et al. The vote was too precious to pass around, they thought 190 years ago. President Carter picked Fritz Mondale as his agent in transmitting the sweeping proposals for election reform to Congress, and the relationship between the two men deserves to be explored. It is an important fact in the city. The cordiality between Carter and Mondale is one of the nicest things in Washington. The vice presidency is among the toughest jobs on earth. Who can be a successful spare tire? What did William A. Wheeler think of Rutherford B. Hayes? What did Garret A. Hobart do for William McKinley? But Fritz Mondale (formerly one of the best men in the Senate) seems to be having influence on the inexperienced Carter Administration and boy, how they need it. The two enjoy each other. At the glamorous Gridiron Club Dinner here the other night, with the distinguished audience in rented white ties and tails, and the Marine Band smashing out patriotic marches, the two put on, straight-faced, what turned out the best skits of the show. Mr. Mondale explained that he was really the big shot of the administration and argued that this could be adduced from available evidence. He was surprised that the unobservant press had not caught on to it. After the Inaugural, he asked, which of them rode down from the Capitol in a limousine, and which walked? As the audience laughed he continued: Which of them carried his own luggage? Mr. Mondale cited other examples: he was the one who traveled to Paris, London and Rome, wasn’t he, while the President went to humdrum places like Pittsburgh, Springfield and Charleston, West Virginia. Yes, explained Mondale, with mock gravity, he went to London and stayed with the Queen at Buckingham Palace while the President was staying with a beer distributor at Clinton, Mass. It was funny enough, but more important was the evidence that the Carter Administration can laugh at itself. This is very welcome news in this born-again, you-all atmosphere. Mr. Mondale went — Page ten . on to explain, straight-faced, that the Ford administration was seometimes criticized for devoting its breakfast to foreign policy; the Carter Administration has arranged things better, he said: it has a new foreign policy for every breakfast. Mr. Mondale paused at this point to say that he had just received a note; a note ah that told him that he must turn in his limousine at 11:00 ,,Does that include the suit, too, Mr. President? he asked artlessly. Yes, it was funny. The Carter speech was good, too. And now we come back to affairs of state and the White House message last week about election reform which Mr. Carter told Congress “the Vice Prsident and I have developed.” The extent of the Mondale participation we don’t know, but between the two of them they have come through with an important, substantial legislative recommendation: nothing less than to bring the US into line with every other developed democracy on earth by putting the onus of voting registration on the government, not the citizen. Also, by Constitutional amendment, they propose to abolish the Electoral College. The percentage of Americans who vote is “a disgrace and scandal, with shockingly low voter participation,” Mr. Mondale told the press last week. Less than six out of ten voted last year, the worst rate in the world except for Botswana, Chad and Yemen. Why is it? The facts are on record. It wasn’t always this way. In the latter half of the 19th century voter turnout in US presidential elections ranged from 70 to 80 percent. But then the second-generatoion immigrants and the blacks wanted to vote. There was big city corruption. Stern restrictions on voter restrictions on voter registration were imposed; ostensibly “reforms” but often with the idea of good old Roger Sherman that the masses were dangerous and should be restrained. Since 1900 we haven’t seen a 70 percent turnout again. In 1972 only 55.4 percent voted; last November it was down to a shocking 53.3 percent. Meanwhile up in Mondale’s Minnesota they instituted registration so simple that a citizen can go to the polling place and show his identification and vote then and there. Minnesota had a 72 percent turnout in the last election, highest in the nation, and not a single charge of fraud was filed. Three or four other states have similar records. Why not do it for the nation, asks Carter-Mondale? And why not have the Federal government drop its passive role in registration? Other democratic governments defray the cost. Canadian registration officials make a door-to-door canvas and prepare ad hoc voting lists at a cost of about 70 cents a voter; it costs about $15 million and around 75 percent vote. How about abolishing the Electoral (College with its winner-take-all provision in the states? In 1967 the American Bar Association commission called it “archaic, undemocratic, complex, ambiguous, indirect and dangerous.” The ABA, US Chamber of Commerce, AFL-CIO, UAW, League of Women Voters, and extaordinary coalition supported the direct vote plan, like Carter’s. The House passed a proposed Constitutional Amendment, 339 to 70, in 1969. Then it sstalled in a Senate fillibuster. Surely now its time has come. The Spectrum Monday, 28 March 1977 . - — .. - I would like to address Mr. David Rubin’s article on tie lines appearing in The Spectrum Friday, 25 March 1977. Mr. Rubin interviewed me while a Finance Committee meeting was in process. I asked that his questions be quick and brief. Unfortunately due to the nature of the interview, Mr. Rubin slightly misquoted me, at least once Changing the jntent of the quote and in another instance apparently drew conclusions while ignoring other things I had told him. The corrections I would like to cite are: (from the article) “However he could have acted between February 19,: . and the time of his illness.” This is not correct. Steve Schwartz (then President of SA) had called the President’s office on Monday, February 21st to set up a meeting between that office and the students concerned. Mr. Rubin appears to imply that I, acting Treasurer at the time, should have gone over the President’s head and acted. I disagree. We were merely waiting for a meeting which never materialized. Secondly, Mr. Rubin quotes me as saying “to make a political issue out of it.” What was said, or at least intended was, we felt the administration was making a political issue out of it. By this (and I did mention this to Mr. Rubin), I meant that the action could possibly h»ve been aimed at particular groups (for example, . NYPIRG). In any case, we will be meeting with Dr. Ketter ■soon over this issue, and hopefully a better solution will result. Neil Seiden, Treasurer Student Association HUMAN RIGHTS MESSAGE �Shea s Buffalo Theater King and Bland merge their distinctive sounds by John Fliss Photography Editor The evening of Saturday the 19th at Shea’s Theatre, B.B. King and Bobby Bland manifested a “Blues” that fit into the modern sound; some jazz, some rock, some dance, some soul mixed with an abundance of the solid blues that ■-■make these men — distinctive. The show opened with Bland’s back-up “Memphis” showing off their tight horn section on a few funk-type tunes. Accompanying the horn section were a clean and delicate lead guitarist, a precise bass, and a smooth rhythm guitarist and percussion. They all seemed to be crying for the completion of this conglomeration. Finally, the first trombonist introduced the “Reverend” Bobby Bland who leisurely strolled out with the patiently awaited instrument, his voice. Bland projected a preacher with his spiritual honest and freeness in style radiating throughout the hall. Legendary Beale-streeters Robert Calvin Bland was born 46 years ago about 60 miles from Memphis, Tennessee and was raised on the rural blues of Blind Lemon Jefferson. After a short spell with an amateur gospel group and a short while as chauffeur for B.B. King, Bland became the vocalist for the now legendary “Beale Streeters Band,” where B.B. sat in from time to time. While in the service he was seen in a talent show in Houston by Duke-Peacock Records president 11 Doit Robey. Rbbey signed him and put out a couple of records before his enlistment up. was One disc was labeled “Army appropriately Blues.” The Beale Streeter went on to become Duke Record’s largest - selling early artist. In 1955, a year after his departure from the service, “It's My Life Baby” became his first hit, followed by “I Smell Trouble,” “Little Boy Blue,” and “Cry, Cry, Cry,” but it wasn’t until 1957 that he began to gain his own following. A melodic marvel Though one might have heard “Call it Stormy Monday” a thousand times before, Bland let it flow out as a fresh experience. While his brass left the stage, Bobby at last let lead guitarist' Photos by John Fliss Johnny Jones solo, reminding him to “keep it slow” and “squeeze it.When Jones squeezed out a vibrating note which sent chills up and down one’s spine, Bland jested, “B.B. won’t like that.” Often Bland ended a note with a eructation that made even catching his breath a melodic marvel. With the sell-out crowd showing its appreciation for what had just taken place, Bobby leisurely walked off clutching his sweat-filled yellow handkerchief. The stage was then quickly set for “The King” and his men. Without any delay the fresh musicians took on the same basic structure of the former band, minus a couple of trombones and trumpets and with the addition of a baritone sax. This group, led by guitarist Milton Hopkins, slowed down the tempo from that of Bland’s band. Halfway through the tird tune, B.B. trucked out. plugged in “Lucille” and began warming her up damn quickly. He then led into “Let the Good Times Roll” and they sure as hell did. B.B. King, 52, now has more command than ever over both is high, clear voice and his weeping guitar. Bland, however, reminded him to take his time. Instinctive blues Coincidently it wasn’t until Riley B. King went into the army that he got into the meat of his blues, as was also the case with Bobby Bland; so that’s what the army’s good for, the blues. B.B. grew up in an atmosphere where blues singing was spontaneous and instinctive. His mother had him singing gospel at age five and at six, he picked up his father’s battered guitar and started strumming. farm outside of he . was by everything in his drawn environment toward a life of singing and playing the blues. It is Raised Indianola, on a Mississippi, interesting to note that this fertile area of land of northwest Mississippi produced other giants such as Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Jimmy Reed, Robert Johnson and Bill Bronzy. While a young man, B.B. built up a following as a disc jockey on a Memphis radio station that came from Beale Street . . where the blues began. That’s when he get the nickname “Beale Street Blues Boy” or B.B. King. . Beauty before age Jumping back into the concert, he continued to his new disc with the cut “Don’t You Lie to Me,” •continued on page 1 Monday, 28 March 1977 . The Spectrum . Page eleven �Utilities —continued from page / ... For example: in January, the Minnesota Supreme Court overturned a county district court’s ruling which had said that Northern States Power Company could charge small residential users higher electrical rates than big businesses. The lower court contended that the lower costs of delivering energy to large users should be the main criteria for setting rates. By the reversal, the high court upheld a decision of that state’s public service commission and its policy making powers, concurring with the agency that industrial users can better afford higher utility rates. The decision also places the burden for energy conservation on the big users. Citizens in California and several other states have got, or are in the process of obtaining. Lifeline rates through their legislatures and regulatory* commissions. This type of rate structure would allow persons in a fixed jit low-income bracket to pay a predetermined, reasonable utility rate. The current payment structure allows utility producers to charge minor low users much more than major kilowatt users. In Colorado, a citizens’ group known as the Colorado Utilities Taskforce (CUT), has received a “95 percent” promise from the governor that he’ll provide money to pay a pro-consumer expert to testify at upcoming rate hearings before that state’s utility commission. CUT has also succeeded in getting the commission to agree to scheduling night hearings on methods to determine certain utility rates. Legislation has been introduced in Congress for a national Lifeline rate act. And another bill, due to be introduced within two weeks, would provide some reform and goal setting measures in the utility field. And in cases where utility companies have cut off service for either alleged or actual non-payment of bills, customers of the Philadelphia Gas Co. successfully argued in a federal court that cutting service to a customer who may be correct about payment of a bill, without an impartial prior hearing, amounts to deprivation of property without due process of law, guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution. However, no one has yet questioned whether the cutoff of power to people who can’t pay their bill, and die from that action, as happened in Ohio this past winter, is actually “legal” murder by a utility company. It remains to be seen. In any event, the abuses of and by the utility companies, and citizen efforts to halt them, will continue to be recorded. But much, much more is needed than that. Let’s face it, the joker in this game is ultimately the government, and until the consumer-citizen gets the voices they elected to speak to these types of issues, the game is still rigged. gathering on Storm clouds horizon it’s in the stars (CPS) If you think things are bad now, just wait until the next decade it looks worse, a well-known group of stargazers is - — — warning. “A lot of astrologers are worried about the 1980s,” says Robert Hand, a member of the National Council for Geocosmic Research. “We don’t know what is going to happen.” The problem it seems, is that the planets are heading into an unusual alignment starting in 1980 that is similar to the alignment they were in during World War Two. This alignment, which occurs every 20 years, also bodes ill for presidents since it is during this astro arrangement that the chief executives have been kicking the bucket in office.

Reiss Chess club promotes their game on campus by Paige Miller This year, under the leadership of president Mike Wawrzyniak, the University of Buffalo chess club has done a lot to promote their game throughout the University. The club has held tournaments, sponsored teams, and even travelled to the Attica Correctional Facility to inmate’s chess club, and they have more planned. The club has approximately twenty steady members, and they meet every Thursday night to play chess. New members are always welcome. The club’s strongest player, Jerald Meyers, is a rated master and is probably the strongest player in Western New York. He is a senior, majoring in economics. Other strong club members include Experts Ron Kensek and Barry Davis, and Class A players Dave Levine and Wayne Gradl. “A” team upset The club sponsors four teams in the Niagara Frontier Chess League one team in the “A” division (for stronger players), and (NFCL) three in the “B” division. The “A” team recently advanced to the NFCL championship, upsetting the top-rated team, Jaws, in a semi-final game. In that match, Levine and Don Christie both recorded draws for Buffalo, and Bob Wiseniewski recorded a win. Of the three “B” teams, the Amherst Super-Bees are currently leading the league. The other two teams, the Euwe Bees and the UB Team 3 have not had as successful a season as the Amherst squad. The club recently concluded a “Thursday Swiss” tournament a five round event in which twelve players competed. The entry fee was $5 and ninety percent of the entry fees were returned as prizes, while the remaining ten percent went to the club’s meager treasury. - — Earlier in the decate Jimmy Carter authored a book entitled Why Not the Best? And today baseball people all over America are asking, “Why not the Yankees?” Good question. Not since their dynastic days have there been more reasons to assume the Yanks will waltz their way to the American League pennant, or at least to the Eastern Division title. Among their assets are a triumverate of multi-million dollar ex-free agents (Catfish Hunter, Reggie Jackson, and Don Gullett, in monetary order), superb speed, solid hitting, average defense and the best pitching this side of Shea Stadium. In addition, they sport an MVP, a home run champ and a red face as a result of last year’s World Series disaster. Only dissention and problems at short stop should , Jceep the Yanks from making it two in a row. Or the 5 Boston Red Sox. Boston suffered a terrible let down last year after their pennant in 1975, but the Fenwayites should be on the rebound. The Sox’ hitting and defense are strong and if they are able to overcome mediocre pitching and return to their form of two years ago, they could cause a dogfight in the East. Indians ride dark horse The Cleveland Indians may be the dark horse team of baseball this year. Frank Robinson has helped build a young team whose crown jewel is center fielder Rick Manning. The pitching staff was bolstered by the acquisition of Wayne Garland, but the Indians, after starting fast, will probably wind up third. The Baltimore Orioles were devastated by the free agent draft losing Jackson, Garland and Bobby Grich. Only pride, defense and amunhappy but Cy Young Award winning Jim Plamer will prevent the O’s from dropping beloW fourth. The Detroit Tigers can be thankful they traded for Rusty Staub a year ago and stumbled across Big Bird Fidrich, but not much else. The Milwaukee Brewers can be thankful only that the Toronto Blue Jays were created, which should save them the embarrassment of finishing last again. And the Blue Jays? Well, they should be thankful that they exist. The newsmakers in the American League West this winter were the California Angles, who with the help of cowboy-singer Gene Autry’s checkbook, Trip to Attica Bob Prager took first place in that tournament, defeating Bruce Topa in the final round for the title. He won thirty dollars. Other prize $18) and Dean Barron and winners are Tobin Nilson (2nd place Wawrzyniak (tied for third $3 each): The club co-sponsored with Community Action Corps (CAC) a trip to Attica earlier this month. The ten players who made the trip spent the day playing chess with the inmates. Before they left, they made arrangements to start a postal chess tournament with the inmates. The club is planning a ham radio match with Michigan State University on April 23, to be held in Squire Hall. They are also trying to arrange a simultaneous exhibition with International Giandniaster Arthur Bisguier. A speed chess tournament is also in the woiks. For more information about the club or its activities, contact Mike Wawrzyniak at 895-643 I. cornered three of the most prized free agents inflhe market. Bobby Grich, Don Baylor and Joe Rudi all jumped teams to sign million dollar plus contracts with Califqrnia, turning the Angels into.Contenders. something they haven’t been in their sixteen year existence. The three new millionaires will give the Angels an offense to combine with their already formidable pitching staff which includes strike out artists Nolan Ryan and Frank Tanana. However, holes are abundant elsewhere on the Angels and the new California gold rush may not be enough to catch the defending champs from Kansas City. Royals return strong The Royals, frustrated from their eleventh hour defeat in last year’s playoffs at the hands of the Yankess, did not join in the free agent signings but are still probably the best of the pack. John Mayberry got some home run hitting tips from ex-champ Roger Maris and could held the Royals’ cause immeasurably with a comeback. Batting champ George Brett and fleet Amos Otis round out the crew which should face New York in a playoff rematch. The Minnesota Twins finished third last year and it was pitching, or rather the lack of it, which prevented them from placing higher. It will again. Even all that hitting, and the Twins are the best with the bats in the A.L., can’t make up for that folly floater pitching. The Atlanta Braves traded half their team to Texas in exchange for Jeff Burroughs, a deal which has to help the Rangers. With some strong performances, the Rangers could surprise and move up considerably in the standings. In any case, they should finally be able to pass the Oakland A’s, a feat they have been attempting to accomplish for years. If anyone was hurt more severely than the Orioles by the free agents, it was Charles 0. Finley’s beleaguered A’s. Only Vida Blue remains from the ’72 champs and even he hopes to find peace elsewhere. The A’s will probably have to settle for fifth. The Seattle Mariners have been scoring lots and lots of runs this spring and it will be interesting to see if they can become the first expansion team not to finish last. They probably won’t, but if not, the White Sox won’t have anything to Say about it. They are just as terrible as last year and should not ruffle too many feathers. — - (WE ACCEPT *•••••••••••• j • FOOD STAMPS) JOLENE'S PIZZA DELI I - - $2.50 Small Cheese Pizza "We Deliver" • - / 1:00am - 2:00 am Fri. • • • J $1.50 25c Del.

A growing demand for improved winter driving conditions has led to demands by the City’s Street Sanitation Department to Mayor Stanley Makowski for widespread application of winter maintenance by the City of Buffalo in order to investigate ways snow removal operations can be improved. Their ultimate purpose is to make suggested recommendations to Mayor Makowski concerning future winter maintenance measures. Problem areas “The roads in Buffalo are terrible and are 20 years overdue for complete reconstruction.” said Louis Pfohl. Manager of the Safety Department for the American Automobile Association (AAA). Pfohl measures “Thy disastrous winter that we have just blamed inadequate road repairs on Buffalo’s eroding experienced has made it quite evident that the City tax base V caused by the exodus of businesses and of Buffalo is totally inadequate to handle conditions people to the suburbs. “Roads are poor because we such as we encountered.” explained James Lindner, simply don’t ahve the money to make the necessary Commissioner of the Street Sanitation Department, repairs.

James and Fremming. representatives of the State Division of the Budget (DOB), the banks indicated they were not initially aware of available safeguards to their investment. They will announce their decision within two weeks. Purchase of these bonds would actually mean S16 million to the resumption of Amherst projects, since the state has pledged to market an additional SI3 million if the S3 million local commitment is made. During the meeting, bank representatives maintained they had never been presented with a written Set of conditions specifying exactly how and where the bond revenues would be used. The Housing Finance Agency (UFA), which issues all construction bonds, has promised it will draw up a written document by the beginning of next week. Request written guarantees The conditions set by the banks include the following; a written guarantee that the bonds will be specifically used for Amherst construction, and would not travel to other areas of the slate; that the bonds'are amply backed by future tuition revenues; and that, the $3 million is the limit to their commitment, Ketter went on to assure them that their obligation is only to guarantee the bonds, which means they can either keep or sell them, according to their preferences. If the banks.agree to guarantee purchase of the bonds within the next two weeks Amherst construction can resume within 90 days, Ketter said. The purchase of the S3 million in short-term mites, which will bring in another SI3 million in bonds from the state’s open market, should instill confidence in HI-A. which lost solid footing during New York’s recent spell of fiscal difficulty. If trust is restored, more bond of the heart(h) sheds light that, in all its accents, has but packages are expected to be issued within the next few months to restart the SUNY system’s many stalled construction projects. . ~ Ketter reported that although the meeting was at first tense, it adjourned on a generally optimistic note. “I think we can pull this thing off,” he said, adding that the banks were initially resentful of the pressure placed on them by the state. However, after Ketter’s hour-long speech, the bankers appeared -continued on page 4 �Storm yields extra charges during the week of May 15, according to Director of Food by Jeffrey M.

In explaining the University’s position, Lorenzetti said representation of individual stirtlents in court does not adhere to SUNY guidelines for use of student mandatory fees. Those guidelines allow fees to be spent for programs of “educational and cultural enrichment” which benefit “the campus community.” The proposal is not irvaccordance with either of these conditions, according to Lorenzetti. disregarded the clear mandate of the SUNY Board of Trustees,” he told The Spectrum. “If Group Legal Services isn’t a student service then nothing is.” In Lippes’ opinion, the sponsor of as the ampus services, such pharmacy and the birth control clinic, which benefit the campus community while aiding individual students. Constant battle A recent amendment to the fee guidelines, adopted by the SUNY trustees, has complicated the issue. The amendment allows fees to be used for “student services to supplement or add to those provided by the University.” Since its issuance, the Administration has refused to apply the amendment to the Group Legal Services proposal. According to Lorenzetti, “We are waiting for clarification from Albany as to the meaning of the Editor wanted Applications for the position of Editor-in-Chief of The Spectrum for the 1977-78 academic year will be accepted until Wednesday, March 30. The application should be in the form of a letter to the Editorial Board stating reasons for interest in the position, qualifications, and previous journalistic experience. The position is open to any student enrolled at the State University of New York at Buffalo. The Editorial Board will interview all candidates on Wednesday evening, March 30. Prospective candidates are asked to contact Richard Korman, Room 355 Norton Hall, to familiarize themselves with procedural questions about the position or about The Spectrum. ’ ' amendment, the Student Association of the State University (SASU) President Frank Jackalone, had programs just such as Group Legal Services in mind when he worded it. Lippes sees the issue as going deeper much than legal representation. He claimed to be involved in a “constant battle for student rights and services. If the Administration takes the position that student fees can’t be used for something as important as this, who knows what will come next?” Lippes feels the Administration even be tampering with students’ constitutional rights. In a case involving the Student (SA) of Erie Association (ECC), Community College Lippes argued for the SA’s right to hire an attorney using fee State Supreme Court money. Justice John H. Doer wrote tljat by denying that opportunity, the may ECC administration the students’ first had violated amendment rights. If the Buffalo case goes to similar lengths, Lippes expects to have little difficulty in getting a favorable ruling. “I feel very confident as a lawyer that we could show this is a violation of first amendment rights,” he said. continued on One good turn deserves another. From one beer lover to another. page 26 by David Ziffer Staff Writer Spectrum The University is about to begin a gradual evacuation of the Ridge Lea campus, as a result of a decrease in the rental budget for next year. Several departments will be moved to locations on both the Amherst and Main Street campuses. Vice President for facilities Planning John Teller said the University will have to move a “very substantial” number of units. According to Telfer, the Division of the Budget (DOB) ordered the move, and originally requested that all of Ridge Lea be vacated this year. The University was unable to comply with this request because the deadline did not allow for adequate planning. Five years ago, this University rented property at over forty locations, at a cost of about $3 million per year. The University now rents space on less than ten locations, costing less than $1.5 million in annual rent. Still, DOB has requested a substantial decrease in next year’s expenditures. Slow to leave Last year, DOB asked that the University vacate the B£ll facility by April 1, 1976. Due to the massive facilities there, the University could not comply, and the completion date for the move was pushed back to September of this year. After the move, the saving in rent will be half a million dollars. The University administration hopes to save the same amount at Ridge Lea. Assistant Vice President for Facilities Planning John Neal said five buildings will be vacated by September and four more by sometime next year. According to Neal, the departments currently slated for the move are: Geography, which will move to Fronczak; Sociology and Political Science, both of which will move to Spaulding; and Mathematics, which will ultimately occupy space on the Main Street campus. The University will no longer rent 4236 Ridge Lea, which houses the cafeteria. Neal said some sort of food service unit will serve the campus, but not in its present form. It is possible that a private entepreneur will move in and open a cafeteria. Lost classroom space at Ridge Lea will be replaced by equivalent space at the Amherst campus. Eligible to leave Neal said several factors were taken into account in the decision as to which departments would move, one of which was department size. Another was the amount of lab equipment owned by the various departments; those having much equipment were considered less eligible for the move. The University also had to consider the contiguousness of the vacated buildings, since contiguous buildings would probably be more attractive to, prospective tenants. The administration also attempted to keep departments from the same faculties together. According to Teller, none of the departments has complained about the move. Teller anticipates that those departments moving to Spaulding will appreciate the move, since the bedrooms there are generally larger than most offices on the Ridge Lea campus. The administration takes a dim view of the move, however, and is trying to minimize the inconvenience involved. Neal expressed his dissatisfaction, saying, “It would be nice to have facilities here at Amherst ready instead of pushing people into temporary locations.” 1 * WBEN, Wm.

NOW SHOWING STUDENT DISCOUNT CARD AVAILABLE AT OUR BOX OFFICE �Experimental video: a cultural alternative by Susan Schachter to the catho-ray tube, which, replicated its Spectrum Staff, Writer image and projected it through a closed circuit system. “Let’s originate our own video and then it will eventually take over the world,” was the slogan of a small group of excited individuals in the late 1960’s, who experimented with video systems (small format recording systems) as a cultural alternative to large network programming. Video a multi-code of meanings ranging from signals utilized by television systems to a mode of mass communication presenting the viewer with information of social, political, and artistic importance. It originated as an electrical image, non culturally defined, and evolved into a culturally defined publicly broadcasted image, then to a computer image, and finally to the video independent approach, or individually made programs. Catho-Ray glow To appreciate the transformation of video from an electronically controlled signal to its present experimental format, one must return to the time period around World War I, when the catho-ray tube was invented to monitor activity within an electronic circuit. The catho-ray tube had a stress of electrons running through it that hit the face of the tube (phosphorescent material) forcing it to glow. Someone named Philo T. Farnsworth applied his imagination to the concept of the catho-ray, and found that the electronic beams on the tube could be used to scan a rectangular signal. By controlling how dark or light the beam glowed, he found he could produce an image. Legend has it that the first image he created was the dollar sign; ironically, he never received any credit for his creation. Black and white television stemmed from the discovery, of the pick up tube, or camera tube, a partner Television boom Television (TV) did not get off the ground until after World War II, when production capacity in the American electronics industry was geared up for war time. After the war, it was feasible to mass produce TV receivers for the home. The late 40’s brought a boom in television sales, and an influx of. people from radio to television such as big name broadcasters Edward R. Murrow and Fred Friendly. The technical quality of television then was different than it is today. All TV shows were done in black and white, and the only way a show could be prepared before hand and shown at a later date, was if it were recorded on film and projected into a camera. 3. Currently, there are two New York born and -bred athletes playing as it was being presented into a video monitor, then take a film camera and record on film the performance on video. This is known as kinescoping and is witnessed every time we laugh it an old Honeymooners, Groucho Marx, or Burns and Allen re-run. Video tape recorder In the early 50’s the television industry expanded, but there were no major breakthroughs in video until 1956 when an engineer at Ampex (the largest American manufacturer of professional broadcast quality audio recording equipment) developed a video tape recording system in his spare time. Programs could be recorded now and then shown at a later date, and capture the image quality of a live the performance, rather s than two-dimensional flat film image. In the middle of ’,56, Ampex Corporation created an earthquake in the ■broadcasting world by marketing the video tape recorder. The first to be hit by the tremors were small scale, financially independent stations, who were regularly fed programs by the networks. Previous to the purchase of the video, an independent station in Nebraska received the 11 p.m. news from New York at midnight or I p.m., an undesirable time for public broadcasting. The new video equipment enabled the news to be stored on tape’and played later at a more desireable time.

They could be part of a creative process by making programs that were interesting to them and relevant to their community, and putting them tin cable. Cable television sparked more interest in the individual video format, which was witnessed by an onrush of street corner video shows and playbacks of tapes made locally in store fronts. Video activity swept through major centers of culture such as San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles and Chicago. An unexplored medium, with the wave 6f an electronical engineer’s magnetic wand, channeled itself before the eyes of many individuals. Its appeal was universal; stimulating the minds of engineers, physicists, media specialists, and artists alike. Delving into a scientific whirlpool of atoms, protons, electrons and nutrons, they came up with images and concepts never before expressed. Who knows, maybe the slogan of the 60’s will become a reality of the 80’s. — Southern Comfort ij * tastes delicious right out of the bottle! mm open bar that's why it makes Mixed Drinks taste so much better! special surprise event great with; 2500 Main St. complete dinner live entertammei ran a cable down from the antenna and hooked it up to phone lines in l\is community.

Cable television enjoyed clear reception without the usual interference of airplances. and opened up many unused channels for experimentation. Federal Communications Commission head Nicholas Johnson, was enthralled by the possibilities of cable TV, and instituted legislation that made it mandatory for every cable company that serviced over “x” amount of people in an area to maintain a facility available to any community member interested in making a program and sending it out on the air. ‘The Video Rover’ The 1960’s brought a new expense to the home of the American consumer: the color television. Channel 4 was first to be entirely in color and the other stations soon followed. Huddled around a television set, families waited for the multi-colored National Broadcasting Company (NBC) peacock to wing its way down to their screen, greeting it with renewed exclamations of awe each time they saw it. Along came Japan’s booming electronics industry, partially made possible by the money pumped into its economy by the United States, via the Marshall Plan. The first Japanese innovation was an attempt to make a video , recording device cheap to be afforded by public enough institutions, eventually appealing to the home owner. After much labor, the Japanese came up with the half inch video small, color tape recording format capable, and relatively inexpensive. In 1967 Sony went one step further, introducing into the American market the portable, battery operated, video tape recorder, called “The Video Rover.” An electronic orgasm shook the world. Anyone who could come up with $15,000 could make, his own TV, and see his own image on the screen. The system was turned around from a one way mass media, where the power lay iri the hands of a few, to an individual enterprise.

Page five �Refrigerator size limit will not take effect in September by .’David Malat Staff Writer Spectrum A proposed regulation to allow refrigerators no larger than nine cubic feet in dormitory rooms on this campus will not go into effect next September as was originally planned. The refrigerator limit issue was resolved at a Monday meeting held between the Inter Residence (IRC), Council Student Association (SA) and the University Administration. However, there will be a stringent registration and inspection process to be folloVved next September. Questions arose dealing with safety and health problems caused by the older refrigerators students Housing Director often use. Madison Boyce has said in the past that he felt units being brought in were not clean enough and may be infested with insects. He cited an incident where a very old refrigerator leaked toxic gasses and a whole dorm had to be electrical demands placed by the larger, older models was too great for the electrical system to handle. He pointed out that 260 circuit breakers went off this year, thus necessitating some kind of control. Clifford Wilson. Associate Director of Housing, added that the buildings were not designed for this heavy load. Cudeck stated that the majority of the circuit breakers went off in the late afternoon and on weekends. Brad Koshar of IRCB quickly pointed out that the units run all day and to say that they caused all of these & evacuated. Director of Custodial Services Richard Cudeck stressed that when refrigerators are transported into the dorms, they were improperly handled and elevators and halls. He discussed accident that occurred in •Governors Residence Halls when a an glass door valued at over SHOO was shattered by a refrigerator. He said also that approximately students leave 40 units behind for Custodial Services each veaf move out to Conserve energy energy-conscious what Len Snyder. Vice President tor and A u x i 11 i a r y ‘‘An university” is Assistant Housing Enterprises, said is necessary, adding that, "Reducing the size of the refrigerator should lead to less energy consumption that admitting Snyder "perhaps I've made too early a decision," in proposing the refrigeration size limit. He cited a 1475 survey that indicated there were 1000 refrigerators in use in rooms and he felt that that figure is underestimating what the true total is now. He concluded that by eliminating the older and larger refrigerators, the problems would simply be reduced.

It is, however, too early to celebrate Should support at the local level fall through, the prospects for more bonding at the State level within the near future become extremely dim. The completion date, already postponed by 10 to 12 years, could be set back indefinitely It is even conceivable that, should these negotiations faull through, Amherst may never be completed people sympathetic with our cause, we can affect great change in the future of this University.

Friday, 25 March 1977 �Theatre Department production The Bacchae'integrates man s reason and passions by Fredda Cohen However, Pentheus, Managing Editor stubbornly The Theater Department's production of The Bacchae reveals the painful'truth of the universe: simply, one must swing with it. The production itself searches for truth in faithful interpretation of Euripides' play Greek theater is emulated with precision, in resulting performances that truly bring forth the philosophy of its authors Euripides was the most humanist of the three major Greek Unlike playwrights. Sophocles focused and Aeschylus, creations on his he the society of man, and not its deities. Although The Bacchae centers its plot around Dionysus the god of wine the theme stresses the interrelationships of mankind, and — — each individual's internal conflicts. Dionysus, son of Zeus and a mortal woman, Semele, returns to the City of Thebes, seeking recognition of his divity. Semele's sisters, Ino, Alonoe, and Queen Agave's i son. King will not relent, refusing to recognize Dionysus, setting himself up for revenge. Reason versus passion We see in the play that one adhere to the laws of the land and the gods in order to exist peacefully. Complacency is the ultimate goal. While Euripides shows no reverence to the gods, he knows they must be appeased and humored. The older, wiser men of the city realize this, also. Kadmus begs of his grandson Pentheus to honor Dionysus, even if he does not actually believe in the god. Obstinancy is Pentheus' dangerous worst, and most attribute, and ultimately leads to his demise. "A strong-headed man is in danger to the state," Eriresius warns him. "Be not governed by one single certainty." Pentheus falls victim to his own repressed drives. Enticed by the tales of the women in the who are reveling forest in must sensation, ripping apart animals and bathing in their blood, he is animal His dismembers him mother own In essense, Euripides maintains that passion and reason must be reconciled and integrated. There can be no polarities the human spirit must remain whole. Directors Linda Swiniuch and Clyde Grigsby adhere to this theme; the setting (by Sandra DeCarolis) comprised is of interwoven boards that create an assymetric stage. There are no boundaries, as such Splendid performances The costumes (by Anna Marie Brooks) are spectacular and befit the Greek tradition. All the actors are masked, as in classical Greek times, further highlighting the dialogue, as facial expressions go unnoticed. Keith A. Watts is an angry and When Dionysus. powerful necessary, he projects his voice like thunder, instilling fear and passion in his victims. The lighting enhances this power, adding color power. and he On stage, commands the full attention of his audience, asserting his godliness. John B. Emmett portrays an equally strong Pentheus which in Greek means ."almost a god Especially poignant were Paul Kawalec (Kadmus). and Gary Berger (Teiresius) as the .blind prophet who sees through wisdom and experience. The Bacchae incorporate dance music to project their passions. As a chorus "under the they influence remain anonymous and bound by their god. They dance across the stage, and trailing moving in the different levels. random order The choreography implies chaos and confusion. Finally, Joan Calkin as Agave renders most diverse performance. Her mind poisoned, she carries the head of her son on a stick, gloating over her victim She, too, can hunt, she says. Agave, do not believe he is a god, and are therefore transformed into frenzied worshippers, devoid of reason. Along with the other women of Thebes, these Bacchae retreat to the forest, manifesting their sensual drives in the form of orgiastic rites. Agave's father, Kadmus, and Teiresias, the blind prophet, follow Dionysus, but with intelligence, rejoicing that "even old men can dance." tricked by Dionysus, who appears before him in the form of a magician Instead of acknowledging his own passions, he symbolically hides from the women and watches them: involvement through voyeurism. However, sensuality without reason is an equally dangerous state. Pentheus is discovered by the women, and under their trance, they mistake him for an Gods and men Yet, when Kadmus brings her to the realization that she had killed her own son, her face controls suddenly, and she is grief-stricken, alone and pathetic. Her final-actions of the play mark Euripides' message. She places the pieces of her son's body in order so he -can successfully journey to the Underworld of the Dead, a gesture symbolizing the restoration of society.

And even though for five years that anthem was almost obligatory as their opening number, using the new "Hotel California" in that slot didn't hurt a bit. In fact, it seems to signify that their metamorphosis from "mellow country-rock group" to a professional and proficient top-ranking rock and roll band is on the verge of completion. The top-ranking part has already been taken care of commercially. The new album shipped platinum, and the Eagles have been selling out tours for a couple of years now. It will be very unusual if this juries of concerts doesn't take care of the critical aspect of the change. Saturday's show in Rochester was diverse enough for any critic or devotee. As an album. Hotel California provided solid ground fQr new member Joe Walsh and lead guitarist Don Felder to stand on. As an opening number, it showcased these two as integral forces. Standing together for the extended jam at the song's end, they made up in guitar solos what drummer Don Henley's voice lacked on this song. There was a danger in opening with "Hotel California," as it is written in the uppermost register of Henley's range. His voice strained several times, especially on the chorus. But Felder and Walsh are masters of their craft, and were able to carry most of the weight here. Something happened on the first chorus that I've never seen, though: when all the Eagles stepped up to their mikes and sang that first four-part harmony, the audience thundered its approval. Apparently the mixing of fiery guitars and smooth vocals is better chemistry than some may have imagined. Another good contrast was use of an acoustic rhythm guitar, adding a note of delicacy to the searing leads. Sick mind Since One of These Nights, Glenn Frey has been more in the background on record, as far as lead vocals. But his role as audience contact is still quite visible. "Hello Rochester. We're the Eagles from Los Angeles." That line may be used in every city they play, but the crowd still goes wild. And aside from Prodigal Sun the public relations angle, Frey's voice still symbolizes the beautifully constructed harmony ballad. His lead vocals on the renditions of "Lyin’ Eyes" and "New Kid In Town" were two of the strongest the entire evening. As a band produces albums, it becomes harder to play older and less recognized songs at a performance. To avoid this predicament, the'Eagles performed all the "Doolin-Dalton" segments of Desperado. This is always my favorite part of their show. From the first harp solo, through Frey and Henley's lead vocals trade, up until the last note of the "Desperado" reprise, these are the numbers that are far more spectacular live than on record. I felt a collective shiver go through the crowd as Henley hit an exceptionally amazing opening note on the His "Desperado" reprise. improved voice tremendously from "Hotel California" on this, hs second number, and only got better as the show progressed. With each listening, it becomes .more obvious that Joe Walsh was the only guitarist to replace Bernie Leadon as an Eagle. With his gypsy scarf and ridiculous facial expressions, I guess he really is a "sick mind." But his four numbers Saturday night were among the very best ever in an Eagles concert. As a matter of fact, I'm still trying to decide if "Walk Away" wasn't the best song of the night. It was much more like the James Gang than the version on his current live album. And strange as it seems, I really like that nasal quality that would probably be annoying in any other singer. "Seeeems to.meee, you just turn your pretty head and walk awaaaaaay." He outfit, but his musical skill really is the clown is consummate. He is also extremely important as the perfect complement for Don Felder. Their solo work on "Turn to Stone" was some of the only unstructured jamming of the performance. Amazing Admittedly, most of the show was comprised of rockers, rather than ballads. Besides "Hotel California," they performed a searing "Victim of Love," and "Life In the Fast Lane," a song guaranteed to be as demanded in concert as -continued on page 1C Friday, 25 March 1977 .

Because their movie. The Groove Tube, is being shown tonight by the UUAB Film Committee in the Squire (Norton) Conference Theatre. And they'd be happy to know that TunnelVision is being shown tomorrow and Sunday, I'm sure. Ken Shapiro, the man in the white suit, developed many of Groove Tube's sketches for public television's "The Great American Dream Machine'' and his own closed-circuit TV production in New York. On film, it’s an assortment of skits, some hilarious, some disgusting, many scatological, and several already cult classics. TunnelVision has the attraction of a pre-Saturday Night Chevy Chase joining in its swipes at the glass teat. Call 831-5117 for times and prices. their niche. Fleetwood Mac last regrouped in 1975, after eight years of amorphous existence, and change, their to the personnel subsequent suddenly became once-sporadic success overwhelming. A totally new sound first appeared on the definitively entitled Fleetwood Mac (their eleventh U.S. album) which, despite being a superbly crafted piece of very listenable "light rock," surprised the AM airwaves with three hot hit singles and eventually became Warner Brothers' all-time best selling album. All this, plus the foreboding news of serious emotional discord (the two married couples within thr group were splitting up) put the new release Rumours on the "most eagerly awaited" list, right up there with such disparate species as ELF, Stevie Wonder and the Beatles. Well, the public lucked out this time Fleetwood Mac has come up with a nearly flawless to paraphrase sequel to their previous chartbuster Jon the wrods of counterculture prophet Mendelssohn, Rumours is "one of those albums which you will find yourself listening to not only time after time after time, but also time and time again, as it is jam-packed with intriguing nuances and so on." Those aware of Fleetwood Mac's manifold early creativeness (Then Play On) may still bemoan their near-total personnel and style turnaround, and snooty FM anouncers may want to disassociate themselves entirely due to last year's singles, but Rumours, taken at face value, is something of a but in a’different way. Her three compositions here seem to dominate the album, beginning with "Dreams," a direct rebuttal to the optimistic "Second Hand News," which precedes it on side one. The refrain "Thunder only happens when it's raining/Players only love you when they're playing" is as compelling as it is well-sung, and the song ranks with "Landslide" (from the last album) as a superb example of Nick' songwriting. "I Don't Want to Know" is another possible capitalizing on its "hitbound” item, love-lost-but-cheerful lyrics, a splendid arrangement and Hollies-type vocals harmonies. However, the — — masterpiece. A lion's share of Fleetwodd Mac's strange new vitality can be traced directly to the efforts of Lindsey Buckingham and his wife Stevie Nicks, the newest additions to the band's line-up. As replacements for bland singer/guitarist/composer Bob Welch, ("Future Games," "Hypnotized") this ultra-attractive couple brought with them an infectious folk-rock style already proven on the Polydor album Buckingham Nicks. Their sweet harmonies and his extensive, skillful use of guitar overdubs gave Fleetwood's music depth and direction so badly needed during their last three albums with Welch (Penguin, Mystery to Me, Heroes are Hard to Find.) Buckinham, whose many guitars provide the Get a jump on the baseball season with Panic Theatre's production of the Broadway musical Damn Yankees. It's being performed in the Fillmore Room in Squire (Norton) Union tonight through Sunday the mere price of a bag of night at 8:15 p.m. Tickets are 25 cents Yankee Stadium popcorn for students, 75 cents for everyone else. — — instrumental backbone of Rumours, is, unlike Welch was, a satisfactory replacement for the trio of singer/guitarists (Peter Green, Danny Kirwan, Jeremy Spencer) who once fronted Fleetwood Mac. His electric guitar work owes much to the blues-rock tradition of which Green was once an unheralded master, but Buckingham adds his own dose of L.A.-country consciousness and acoustic charm which transcent the usual British rock cliches. His inventive, often dense guitar arrangements make auditory delight, particularly Rumours an throughout the second side (production credit is given to the entire group.) The acoustic-electric transformation and rhythmically charged ending of "The Chain" (a group composition) evoke strong memories of the 1968 Fleetwood Mac, but the enticing Buckingham-Nicks round-robbing vocals make the song unique and exciting in its own right. Although he tends to drown out Christine McVie's keyboards at times, Lindsey Buckingham in no way dominates Fleetwood Mac as a songwriter or singer. His voice, ("Monday Morning," "I'm So Afraid" from the last album) although hard-pressed at times, is pleasingly reminiscent of Danny Kirwan's, and his three catchy contributions to Rumours should be marked "hitbound." In fact "Go Your Own Way," with its "born to run" drumming and Eagles'-sounding refrain, is already heading that way, although it appears to be a good song anyway. On "Second Hand News," a delightful romp-and-roll-in-the-hay, slight hints of the early sixties, plus the incredible precision of the singing, are proof positive of the strength of the Fleetwood fledglings as a team. Ironically enough, on these two songs, as well as the tritely fingerpicked "Never Going Back Again," Buckingham is joined by Nicks is unforgettable harmony, in singing about a subject they must know quite well their own split-up. Although it was only hinted at on the last album, Stevie Nicks has become one of Fleetwood Mac's most important assets. A welcome complement to McVie's vocals (Nicks sang "Rhiannon," McVie sang "Say You Love Me,") she annoyed some with alternately sweet/shrill delivery and contrived vibrato, but has mellowed somewhat since, adding sultry/seductive to her list. Like those of Buckingham, her songs stand out on Rumours, — Catch A Rising Star On Tour, featuring talent from the New York nightclub showcase for new talent, will appear Sunday, March 27, at 8:30 p.m. in Spaulding Cafeteria, Ellicott Complex.

Friday, 25 March 1977 album's most engaging cut (another one of Nicks' best) comes at the close of side two where haunting and appropriate instrumentation composition combine perfectly in "Gold Dust Woman." Throughout, Ms. Nicks' eerie vocal sounds like a refined Pattie Smith (her stylistic antithesis) whom even the lyrics seem directed to: Rock on gold dust woman Take your silver spoon. And dig your grave Heartless challenge Pick your path and I’ll pray — Christine McVie, who has been with Fleetwood Mac since the Future Games album (1971,) rounds out the band's current triad of singer-songwriters. Although her vocal and keyboard skills have improved greatly in accordance with her "bandleader" status, her compositions, which stood out on the last album, have grown weaker with Rumours. "Don't Stop" is sort of fundamentalist barrelhouse-boogie, whose main saving grace is ,a vocal trade-off between her and Buckingham. (Their voices are very similar at times, as evidence on "World Turning" from the last album.) well-recorded live cut A deceivingly ("Songbird") sees Christine aspiring to be Joni Mitchell reasonable lovesong lyrics, solo piano accompaniment but her predictable, laboriously inflected vocals smack more of Elton John. Her best two compositions come on side two, with two more self-denying love songs, "You Make Loving Fun," and -."Oh Daddy." The former is an enjouable disco-flavored rehash of "Say You . Love Me," brightened by the soothing Buckingham/Nicks harmonies, and the latter a deftly arranged but downtrodden vehicle for McVie's dusky, emotional — — vocal. Credit was given earlier to Lindsey Buckingham for providing "musical Backbone" on Rumours, but upon reflection, such praise seems perhaps misdirected. Bassist John McVie (the "daddy", in "Oh Daddy") and drummer Mick Fleetwood (the only band member never married to another band member) are Fleetwood Mac, in both name and deed. Having been with the band through all their permutations, Fleetwood and Mac can play anything, any style, in any way required, and are perhaps the best pop-rock rhythm section around today. Always precise and never obtrusive, they often sacrifice complexity (of which they are quite capable) for mucical continuity, at no expense to the sound. A good idea of just how tasteful and proficient they are would be impossible to convey in this limited space, but trust me. Get hold of Rumours and listen to it carefully, either time and time again, or time after time after time, whichever you have time for. —John Duncan Prodigal Sun �Eznlyn Williams young Thomas into rustic, ribald .adulthood.

Instead, Williams simply walsk out, in a perfectly ordinary business suit, and talks. He describes a man's life his memories of childhood, his fantasies and fights, family, friends, and characters.

Mr. Williams does not Less restrained than in his Dickens performance, Williams is able to create a vast array of characters and locales with nothing other than his voice and Rahsaan Roland Kirk, Kirkatron (Warner Brothers) This is Rahsaan Roland Kirk's first album released since the stroke body. He shows us boys lying on he suffered last year, which paralyzed one side of his body. Kirk has the beach, spinning magic futures, the schoolyard companions, been blind since early childhood, He had an eye problem since birth enemies and chums ("War begins and story has it that when he was one or two years old a nurse camy in the school playground"); the into work drunk or high or mad at someone, slipped and put too muc(j men of the village who conduct medicine into his eyes, causing him to lose his sight entirely. One of Kirk's longtime trademarks has been his use of two and three instruments simultaneously. He first began to experiment with this around 1951. Another of his trademarks are two of the instruments he plays, the stritch and the manzello, which are made from parts of other instruments. The stritch looks like an elongated straight soprano sax, but is actually a straight alto. The manzello, which sounds like a soprano, looks like an alto sax with the bell of a bass clarinet. Kirk also plays tenor sax, B Flat and E Flat clarinets, flute, piccolo, English horn and an assortment of less orthodox instruments, among them black puzzle flute, nose flute, black mystery pipes, whistle, thunder sheet and palms. Since he suffered the stroke, Kirk never plays more than one instrument at a time. He has modified his flute so he could hold it down like a soprano and his sax so he could play it with one hand; all this after the doctors said he would not play again. When he did play more than one horn, he employed a technique known as circular breathing, which only a very few musicians have mastered, recently among them being Sonny Fortune. In circular breathing, you are breathing in through your nose while at the same time breathing out through your mouth. This is a great advantage to a horn player because you do not have to stop to take breaths. Rahsaan is definitely one of the most dedicated players around, and this is exemplified by the fact that he continues to play after his stroke. On his latest effort, Kirkatron, Kirk plays flute, tenor sax, manzello, and Liricon. Three of the tunes were recorded live at last year's Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland, before he suffered the stroke. Kirk plays his nasal style of flute on “Serenade to a Cuckoo" with occasional moans and groans between phrases. It is a well-known fact that Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull learned his flute style from Kirk. Anderson even recorded "Serenade" years ago. On the other two cuts recorded at Montreux, "Bagpipe Medley" and "J. Griff's Blues," Kirk plays tenor sax and manzello simultaneously. "Bagpipe Medley" had Kirk imitating a bagpipe by playing sustaining notes on his tenor, then playing the medley above them with the manzello. A march rhythm is created by the snare drum of Sonny Brown and Todd Barkan on tambourine, with Kirk playing an Irish march with his horns that blends into a variation of "Oh! Suzannah." My favorite cut, "J. Griff's Blues," starts out as a straight ahead blues with Kirk doing his best blowing on the album. About half-way through, the band falls out, leaving Kirk to blow alone and the crowd loves it, clapping in unison to the beat. The tune ends with Kirk holding one of his famous long notes, and the crowd eats it up. Kirk's live cuts are usually better than his studio work because the audience turns him on and the showman in him comes shining through. Many people put Kirk down, saying he is a big ham, but that is all part of his act. He is a true performer. Also included are Kirk's version of Leon Russell's "This Masquerade" (no, George Benson did not write it) and Stanley Turrentine's "Sugar," with lyrics written by Kirk and well sung by Michael Hill. On Dizzy Gillespie's "Night in Tunisia" there is good solo work from Stephen Turre on trombone and Hilton Ruiz on keyboards, whose strong playing is heard throughout the album, with the exception of "Christmas Song." As usual, Rahsaan is backed by good musicians on this album. Included are: Buster Williams and Milton Suggs on bass, Charles Persip and Walter Perkins on drums, Cornell Dupree on guitar and a longtime side man, Howard Johnson, on tuba. On "Lyriconon" Kirk plays an instrument called a Lyricon, which soulds like an outerspace organ. There is good brush work by drummer Jerry Griffin and nice bass playing by Mattathias Pearson. "Steppin' Into Beauty" proves once again that Rahsaan is also capable of playing the hell out of a ballad. He is very medolic and has soft, beautiful tone on this tune. Hilton Ruiz again shines through on keyboards. As if all this was not enough, there is even a short interlude by the Los Angeles Negro Chorus: rounding out the album is Kirk's "Bright Moments," with lyrics by percussionist Todd Barkan. If you are into Kirk, this album is a must. For those not familiar with his music, "Kirkatron" is a good sampling of what Rahsaan -Russ Surmanek Roland Kirk is all about. And — — , To paraphrase Hamlet, Prince of Denmark one of our more intriguing theatre critics Emlyn Williams' performances at the Studio Arean Theatre please not the million. Caviare to the general they are, but caviare to the particular fine, rich food for thought. His run concludes tonight and tomorrow night with the last two showings of Dylan Thomas Growing Up. If you have anything less than your own funeral scheduled, cancel it and see this wonderful show. Unlike his Chalres Dickens evening, Williams doesn't offer an impersonation of Thomas not that it would be difficult for him, Fair trade Dickens emphasizing that to be easier to enjoy is not to be superior. Both are brilliant pieces of stagecraft; both demand only a small quantity of attention invested to yield great enjoyment. .. — RECORDS Friday, 25 March 1977 The Spectrum .

They act as if they know all as they speak, incoherently, about quickly, Talas, Rick Derringer and Manfred Mann. They know it all. It is 7:30 p.m. and Derringer has just completed his sound check. All who know it point out to me that Derringer is quite — — meticulous about his rock 'n roll style. Everything has to be right. Everything is all right now. The photographer is here. You can begin now, guys. around the stage like all teenage idols do. So they play "Rock 'N Roll Hootchie Koo" and the teenagers storm the stage. Before leaving, Derringer gives the crowd philosophy to live by with the words "Keep On Rockin'." The house is not packed but it is a sellout. Down to earth band I keep thinking scenes from the sixties. About how the Beatles and the Stones and Manfred Mann made up so much of those carefree, careless times.

Talas as bread pudding Talas is probably the biggest local band in Buffalo, t. am told the copy tunes Talas interprets drive bar audiences into a frenzy. This comment reaches me as not one based on a feeling of lauded simple, but as a esteem, straightforward admonition. Talas has attacked my ears more than once and I know and fear what is hurts coming. My stomach already. The band consists Of a bass player, a drummer and a guitarist. Talas' originality consists of turning up the amps and speakers while, ALL WAY THE at the same miraculously synchronic time, turning up the bass and guitar reverb ALL THE WAY. The couple I saw earlier enjoys it and with joints hanging ecstatic, but from their Shot in the Derringer step up from this A phenomenon is Derringer, who plays and lives on original material but is trapped by the success the hits have brought him. I have no doubt that Derringer has a great degree of talent, but talent can bring certain people only so far. Talent is stifled by success. And kids yell "Rock 'N Roll Hootchie Koo," it is necessary for Derringer to oblige them.

Many local bands are here this eve and they sit in boxed seats with their egos bubbling over onto the audience. They are the kings and victorious warriors of the Century. This dream they believe, although the clique has never encountered a true battle of bands. The peace is plastic and ephemeral. They are imprisoned by their renditions of copy tunes. Made famous by the Stones, Bowie and the Tubes, they rest on the sharp and pointed laurels of established national bands. These groups are the enemy of originality who fear the technology of the jukebox. Some day, it may cost them their $300 dollars per night gigs. And Talas was paid little or nothing this evening.

The Spectrum Friday, 25 March 1977 . Pablo Cruise, A Place in the Sun (A&M) When I mentioned the title and artist of this album to my friends as the latest prize on the review roster, there was almost an entire void response to the name of Pablo Cruise. I felt disappointed, as Pablo Cruise deserves more recognition than that, A Place in the Sun being their third album, ahd receiving a good deal of media coverage at that. Cruise encompasses an assortment of styles, but refine them for their own tangy results. A key note is not to spend tons of time searching out profundity in their lyrics, as this is not Cruise's speciality. Consider lyrics the "side dish" to the "main course" the original delightful musicianship and dynamite spirit that makes their music — we played too long." The people in the club seem to enjoy the folk act onstage. The candles on each table flicker from the air set in motion by the audience's applause. Mann grabs one of the candles and lights his cigar with it and, subsequently, makes some observations as to playing in small clubs. "This is something I've always dreamed of doing. It would be good to play in a place like this where the audience doesn't expect too much. It would be just me and my synthesizer. But it would be pretty hard I mean the keyboards are so large.

"Can I Call You a Cab," "Lucky Lady," "The End of the Road," and "Now I Found You" are all upbeat, rhythm and blues influenced songs. Bad vocals and harmonies, plus simple use of strings and horns, (something I detest,) make these songs offensive. "She's a Stranger to Me Now" reminds me of the Eagles' "Doolin Dalton" without the storyline; "You Can't Fool Yourself" is a pretty ballad, but has hokey lyrics. Though this album has some highlights, it is the least exciting Southern album that I've heard yet. Supposedly, Mama's Pride is St. Louis' hottest bar band. On this album they fail to live up to the —Andrew Ross reputation freshly invigorating. It's all a form of "getaway music," as the band invites us along with the light, fluid guitar playing of Dave Jenkins, who knocks off with ease soaring melodic lines. There are many things that go right for Pablo Cruise that make then sure-shot winners the members play together as one musical force, each instrument blending neatly with the other, the fiery singing of both Jenkins and bassist Bud Cockrell and the building of each song until it bursts with pure joy. — Most of the first side is very good, getting a little weak at the end. The last couple of songs on this half, "I Just Wanna Believe" and "Tonight My Love," are not powerfully withstanding next to the other tunes, perhaps too lighthearted in comparison. Side two is virtually flawless, not letting up for a moment. The 9-minute "Can't You Hear the Music?/Never Had a Love" is a harmonic fireball, an example of Pablo Cruise at their cookin' best. There is the sentimental I'm-Leaving-You-Song, "Atlanta June," and this blends in with a Santana-styled insturmental, "El Verano," a stunning concluding cut. A Place in the Sun is an exciting, sing-along album, surely made to give a great feeling to any listener.

Rumors from Rochester had it that the Peter Gabriel Concert was a musical failure; both Gabriel and Television were booed in that city. True, the cound system there was faulty, but there must have been other reasons for the bad reception. Whatever the case, the performance of Peter Gabriel and Television in Buffalo last week was far from disappointing. Due to some’ difficulties in getting a ticket, this reviewer missed about half of the set by Television,' the opening act. For the uninformed. Television is a facet of the phenomenori known as "punk rock," which has been creeping steadily westward from its origin around New York City. (But, yet has to meet with any widespread acceptance outside of that area.) In contrast to the simplistic styles of many of their contemporaries, Television displayed a sound that was fairly complex, featuring a geat deal of guitar chord layering and some inspired drumming. Nevertheless, the audience response was at best lukewarm, and semetimes unfavorable. In fact, around the middle of the very abbreviated set, someone shouted, "Change the channel!", (A more complete and informative review should appear elsewhere in this paper.) No Genesis concert A brief 'sound check, and Gabriel's banid took to the stage. From its onset, it was obvious that Peter Gabriel wished to break all ties with his old band, Genesis. Clad in something that resembled a glorified warmup suit, he appeared, sitting at the piano, playing the opening bars to "Here Comes the Flood." That was it. No capes, no costumes, no theatrics, no aging 500 years in 5 minutes. This was Gabriel pure, but not at all simple. He must have played the first strains of "Here Comes The Flood" only to set the mood of the show, for immediately after this introduction the band erupted into a totally new and unrecognizable song. It displayed a high level of energy, one which was to be maintained throughout most of the concert. As should have been expected with Gabriel, this concert was not put together haphazardly, but was as carefully constructed as his album. The material performed reflected his desire to be accepted as a solo performer. Most of it was taken from the new album, with a few songs by other artists, such as "All Day Arid All Of the Night" added for variety. Everything from the album was generally to quite close the recorded versions. Of course, the studio and the concert stage are two different entities, so some, but not a great deal of the studio effect was lost. However, the forcefulness of Gabriel's delivery more than compensated for any of these deficiencies. delivery This also was influenced by Gabriel's to be recognized as a solo artist: with Genesis, he could hide behind masks and costumes, but here he was on his own. Surprisingly, he was not as wild as one would expect, simply standing in the middle of the stage or sitting at the piano. Only rarely would he leap over the piano or stalk the stage — just when those actions seemed appropriate to the song. At times, his antics were reminiscent of Mick dagger, but they were more reserved, less obnoxious. Talent in the band consisted Garbriel's set essentially of two parts. The more complex, less energetic songs, such the as "Moribund Burgermeister" and "Solsbury Hill," dominated the earlier part of the concert, which succeeded, albeit barely, in capturing and holding the attention of the audience. It was this part where the abilities of Gabriel's backup most clearly band were demonstrated. With the exception of one keyboard player, all of the band's members had playfed on his album. Allan Schwartzberg and Jim Haelen, on drums and percussion, respectively, were notably good; usually kept a Schwartzberg steady, pronounced beat, while Maelen create interesting rhythms and accents within a maze of varied > percussion instruments. The center of the stage was dominated by the lanky, sedate bassist, Tony Levin, who also extended his talents to the “Chapman stick” bass and tuba on a few songs. These three musicians, adept as they were, nevertheless were overshadowed by the abilities of two other members of the band. Most important and noticeable of these was Steve Hunter, the lead or “full frontal" guitarist. During the first part of the concert, his well-executed solos were often the main factor that kept the songs interesting. Controlled, but not reserved in both his playing and antics, he did not upstage Gabriel in any way. However, next to Gabriel, he was important , force the most emphasizing that this was not another Genesis concert. Hunter is also a performer in his own right. (His debut album should be out after this week, if it hasn't been released already.) In a brief interview after the show, he •continued on page — - —Fliss Prodigal Sun Friday, 25 March 1977 . The Spectrum . Page seventeen �Prophetic "Wizards' has no future shock by Mitchel Zoler Spectrum Arts Staff Wizards is the creation of Ralph Bakshi, who was previously responsible for Fritz the Cat and Heavy Traffic. Like its predecessors. Wizards is animated but geared toward adult sensibilities. In contrast to the former efforts, which dealt with contemporary street life, Wizards concerns itself with life on Earth about ten million years from now. This future Earth is inhabited by elves, ogres, fairies, and, of course, wizards, all produced by the genetic alterations of nuclear waste. The story focuses on the culmination of an ongoing battle between two brother warlocks. Black Wolf and Avatar. (I leave it to you to guess which is the nasty.) This typifies the primary difficulty bad guy roles are perfectly of the entire film: the good guy and follow down the same path as if defined, wreathed in stereotype they were in a Disney cartoon. Not only is the plot as stale as a loaf shipped from Middle Earth, it is executed with all the finesse of a charging unicorn. The infusion of swastikas into the nasties' costuming and the degeneration of goody morale by the use of Nazi propoganda films is among the lead weights which drag this film down to the depths. It isn't a total disaster. The characters exhibit some originality in form, while the color coordination is first rate. When things are moving, the simple kaleidoscope of animation is sufficient to hold one's interest; unfortuneatly, even this happens sporadically. Too often the action falls victim to the trap of modern animation, expense. Corners are cut by narrating over unmoving scenes, or simulating liveliness by slight mouth and head movements. What ruined Saturday morning T.V. also does a hatchet job on Wizards. The dialogue can be catchy, particularly Avatar's crotchetiness and the blackout routines from the gas-masked soldiers. The dialogue also gets too cutesy at times, the kjnd where it might be funny if it wasn't trying to be serious. One final point I must comment upon is the battle between Technology and Magic which this movie is supposed to be about. It really isn't, this being the one aspect of Wizards where the sides are not cut and dry. Nevertheless, this doctrine is presented, with Technology embodying all badness (as in tanks, bombs, rapid-fire guns) and Magic all goodness. I'm as much for good, butterfly encrusted, flower coated, fairy flying Magic as the next person, but I get annoyed when such a one-sided view of technology is presented. I could have accepted it without a word if it had meant something to this film, made ineffective. As it is, it's just one more hackneyed idea thrown on the heap. - Peter Gabriel... —continued from page 17— short song where he provided a high pitched electronic/vocal accompaniment to Gabriel's voice. talked primarily about this album. It is the work of a guitarist, but unlike the efforts of his contemporaries, it does not rely on any single style. Hunter felt this was important, as he did not want to be stereotyped early in his career. (He mentioned the problems that other guitarists, Clapton in particular, had in freeing themselves from their stereotypes.) His greatest ambition, at present, is to compose for and play in front of an orchestra sort of a guitar symphony or concerto. This is not as outrageous an idea as it seems, he said, because the guitar has enough versatility not to be dominated by an orchestra. Hunter indicated that this project would take some time, but if his playing on it is as good as it was during the concert, it should be worth the time spent waiting. The second important musician was Larry Fast, who is probably best known for his work on the two Synergy albums. In the concert. Fast was not a musician in the same way as the other member of the band; surrounded by his synthesizers, he did not really play music, but his programmed it. His work was felt more than noticed, providing a background that held the songs together. There were only a few instanced where his playing was readily apparent, such as on "Solsbury Hill" and also on a The great deceiver For the record, it should be mentioned that the enigmatic Robert Fripp was there, although his presence was scarcely noticeable. He seemed to be quite content as sort of a background rhythm guitarist; very rarely were his characteristic drawn-out notes heard. Unlike everybody else in the band, he could no't be seen by the majority of the audience, for he was seated behind a curtain on the right side of the stage. The only time he emerged (without his trademark beard and spectacles, incidentally) happened when Gabriel introduced the band. Even after the introduction, the crowd was still not convinced, particularly since Fripp had been introduced using a pseudonym ("Rusty Toes"); shouts of "Where's Fripp?" could still be heard well into the song that followed. The most entertaining points, far as the audience was concerned, came when the band played "Waiting for the Big One." During this long, blues-styled number, Gabriel ran up to the balcony to sing a verse. Then he came down, leaped off of the stage and walked up and down the center aisle, shaking hands with as many members of the audience as he Page eighteen Friday, 25 March 1977 — .

It began quite abruptly with a segue from "Slowburn" into "All Day and All of the Night," which was done with more energy and less control than the original Kink's classic. This was followed by "Here Comes the Flood" (which, in its own way, was much better than the album version) and "Modern Love." the last song of the set, "Down was the only Genesis material the Dolce Vita," was the high performed that night, and the point of the concert.

At the close of that song, complaints about its brevity, Gabriel left the stage, but it was almost everyone in the crowd obvious that the audience was not seemed well satisfied with the satisfied.

The SoHo district. The magnetic wasteland in which the newest and most important pop forms of this decade perform. It is the domicile of such clubs as On The Rocks, Max's Kansas City, and C.B.G.B.'s, and it was one of those same bars/clubs C.B.GT.B.'s if ya wanna git particular about it to which Peter Gabriel hopped. Whom did he see? Why, Television of course! The heroes of this journalistic escapade. Apparently, (as the story is told by Tom Verlaine) Gabriel enjoyed what he saw, which (in my opinion) was most likely an excellent execution of rock and roll, and decided that that was what he needed (also in my opinion) to bolster his own primarily sluggish show. Dispensing with the question of "what was that lamb, Gabriel doing in the big, bad Bowerey in the first place?" this expose indicates how Television came to, open the Gabriel smorgasbord last week. So, welcome Television's debut entrance, as they are the first of the new wave of bands, eminating seemingly from out of nowhere, all across the continental plain, to hit Buffalo. Television are transparent, peculiar, and worthy of everyone's attention (!) and yet L it is ironic that they only met with polite bewilderment and thwarted reactions during their brief (45 minute! but superb stand at the Century Theatre. — Restless ruminants Things started out fine with the Stonesy "See No Evil" a cut from their first Elektra album and actual proof of the group's combined talents: stupendous Tom Verlaine lyrics, hooking lead guitar by Richard Lloyd, and heavy duty rhythms accented by Bill Ficca's drum strafes and Fred Smith's persistant Fender bass. Fine, no problems here, but there is still the bustle of too many people that haven't yet been seated. It proves, after all, that neither of the two major Buffalo radio stations support a playlist laced with a healthy stash of Television, and that for that reason a vast majority of the paying audience probably had no idea as to who was even on stage, much less as to what melodious consecration was being performed. And its no effing doubt and definitely a shame that the aesthetic prominence of the band's second tune went unnoticed, except by the pockets of T.V. fans. So, pay a ten shun. Let's not have this happen again! Tom Verlaine (ne: Miller), like Keith Richards Prodigal Sun Don't miss this spectacular performance!! * plays a clear bodied Dan Armstrong guitar, but, unlike the Stone, he is also a respected poet in academic spheres.

Certainly when the group receives its overly due platter time from the tremendously biased joks, Television's future Buffalo audiences will take note of this factor. LONG LIVE FREE RADIO. This time around, the group no doubt suffered the "special guest" blues. Yet, in another light, this present frustration may prove invaluable if Television is to gain any formidable national audience. Credit Gabriel for bringing T.V. out of New York City. Disproving the hype Already the group has had to deal with the awful "punk rock" handle. This is a misconception If anything, Television is a post-psychedelic band minus the chemical aftereffects, and their instrumental wares prove this. The final piece, a lengthy excursion entitled "Marquee Moon developes a kinetic theme and modifies it into an incredible journey. Most bands hit a song fast, then stretch out for a while, then end up with a bang Television go into it slowly, tentatively, and build up an atmosphere until it is a congruous ONE.

The event was part of the College’s ambitious One-to-One program, through which community children and University students’partlcipate in a variety of activities. Program Coordinator Cathy Yalowich believes the purpose of the program is “one of enabling the students to “experience” the retarded, and likewise the children “experiencing” the students. Clifford Furnas College, located in the Fargo Quad of the Ellicott Complex, has held similar programs for three years, and according to one College student “is getting better every year.” Over the past three years, the programs included trips to the zoo, a Valentines Day Party, Halloween party and a carnival. All of the children come from various Buffalo Agencies for the mentally retarded. There are extensive programs,for these children that are funded by Erie County, including bowling parties and other special events, coordinated on a weekly basis. These agencies have assisted the College in supplying names of children, and particular help in establishing the program and in getting community recognition for it. The Special Olympics program included 25 children and 60 students, all participating in the 10 Olympic-style events, which were staged and judged by the students themselves. The program’s highlight was the fifty yard obstacle course, taking the children through everything from walking over benches to doing somersaults on mattresses. The students and children cheered each other as they each made their way through the maze of obstacles. Most of the students working with the children have had previous experience working with retarded children. Likewise, many of the same children participate in other College activities, and in some cases'bring friends. Yalowich believes that “the program is necessary to involve the retarded in community activities allowing them to function in an informal social gathering.” In speaking with some of the parents on the success of the program, there was only praise for all efforts concerned. Clifford Furnas College hopes to involve all other colleges on the Amherst Campus in planning a bigger Special Olympic Program, to be held next December. Funding for the program is minimal, but with the recognition the program is now getting, it is likely that next year the program will be bigger. The afternoon culminated with an award ceremony, giving first, second and third place medals to the respective recipients. Afterwards all enjoyed a special "OLYMPIC CAKL” procurred by Steven Jayson. The One-to-One program exemplifies “togetherness” between students and children. Observing the children as they left the Bubble at the programs end. it was obvious that it is not the students who make the program a success, but the kids themselves. SHARE THE RIDE WITH US THIS (CPS) While many people are aware of the anti-ERA movement spearheaded by the Catholic Church and Phyllis Schafly of the national organization Stop ERA, few are alert to the interest business, particularly insurance companies have shown through their funding the opposition. Wiped,out in Nevada and North Carolina only recently and dragged down by such continued resistance, the Equal Rights Amendment just may not get to go the distance. Titne is running out on the March 22, 1979 deadline when 38 states will have had to' approve the 27th amendment to the U.S. Constitution. But to date, only 35 states have said yes. Elinor Langer, in a well-documented article in Ms. magazine points out that the corporate powers-that-be are worried that strict enforcement of the ERA could raise payroll costs. Langer obtained figures which are not available from any government or industry source: “If in 1970 women who worked had earned the same amount per hour as men who worked, it would have cost employers an additional $96 billion in payroll alone. That figure assumes that women and men are working at comparable jobs and receiving equal pay, but it does not include equalizing their hours. “If women had earned the same as men and worked the same number of hours, the addition to ■the payroll would have been $303 billion.” Clearly, says Langer, “the Equal Rights Amendment and the traditional role of women in the capitalist economy are incompatible.” Equal protection The ERA had been doing fairly well in the early 70’s. By January 1973, the amendment had been dramatically ratified by 22 states in one year alone and had the endorsement of such unions as the United Auto Workers and AFL-CIO. But suddenly on November 4. I 975, voters in New York and New Jersey turned down the ERA and winning was no longer something taken for granted. What did the amendment’s opponents fear? Former Senator Sam Ervin worried that the passage of the ERA would result in a large transfer of powers from state legislatures to Congress while others insisted that many other laws already adequately protected women and cited the Civil Rights Act. the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment, and the 5th Amendment’s due process clause. These arguments were not strong enough, however, to, deter the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent decision inthe General Electric v. Gilbert case. The Court ruled that a business does not have to provide pregnancy benefits for female employees in existing disability plans, nor does it have to provide benefits for non-pregnancy related disabilities incurred while a woman is on unpaid pregnancy leave. Insurance companies are also in the front lines of the opposition to the ERA. In life insurance, women traditionally pay less than men since data indicate they are less of a risk. In both medical and disability insurance, pregnancy and gynecological problems may be excluded while specifically male disorders, such-as vasectomies, are provided for. And because of the assumption that women are only supplementing the family income and less likely to linger at home when possible, disability policies are sometimes difficult to obtain and may be inferior to those in offered men similar occupations. Furthermore, the insurance industry can better afford to hold the line against a constitutional amendment because it is one of the few major industries that is still regulated by state governments and not by Washington. With business as a major ERA eqemy, the amendment’s passage is hindered even beyond those who have taken to the streets in the name of such organizations as HOT DOG (Humanitarians Opposed to Degrading Our Girls), HOME (Happiness for Women Eternal), FOE (Females Opposed to Equality) and Ha! (Home Administrators). There are others but you get the point. The National Organization of Women (NOW) is encouraging the boycott of Nevada and its products, since Nevada is one v of the most recent states to defeat the ERA. “If we’re not equal before the law in Nevada, we’d just as soon not be there,” says Linda Rasmussen, a NOW representative in CA. Sacramento, The National Education Association also has a policy of not holding conventions in states that haven’t ratified the ERA. What will happen after March 1979? Langer says that part pf the answer lies in practical political organization. Coordination of pro-ERA materials is essential for its passage. “Before it became a fight, passage of the Kqual Rights Amendment would have been merely a gift. If it will be a mature victory,” it is achieved now ... says Langer. \ _ Big business willing, though, l-RA may never make it past the preliminaries. SPRING BREAK AND GET ON TO A GOOD THING.

If your spring travel plans include a ride on the railroad, Choo-choo Charlie will be more than your friendly engineer. Amtrak narcs have been given the Drug Enforcement Agency’s undisclosed “Drug Courier Profile” and are working with Blitz, a pot-sniffing German Shepherd. Over the past six months.

Los Angeles underground editor teaches at California State Art Kunkin, former owner and editor of the nation’s (CPS) prominent underground newspapers of the late 60’s and early 70’s, including the Los Angeles Free Press has surfaced to teach journalism part time at the San Fernando Valley campus of California State — , University. Kunkin also works for Earth Radio News as a freelance reviewer, is book on Kundalini yoga and beginning another on “Freep.” as the underground paper was known to its readers. The former tool maker and Socialist Party member first gained notoriety , in 1969 when the Free Press published a list of 80 state undercover narcotics agents, including their names, home addresses and telephone numbers. As a result, he was convicted of receiving stolen property, a verdict later overturned by the California Supreme Court. In 1971, after being forced to sell the paper which had a circulation of 90.000 because the paper suffered debts, Kunkin went writing a into personal bankruptcy. Still at it, Kunkin. now 48, said he has not abandoned alternative journalism. He recently met with former Yippie leader, Jerry Rubin, and former underground editor Paul Krassner, in an abortive effort to start another Los Angeles underground paper. How does he like teaching? “1 like [itI very much . . . although there is nothing quite like a publication. Students are always amazed when they find ray name in the journalism texts,” Kunkin said. Queens College investigating Iranian program (CPS) . It has been documented recently that the Shah of Iran gave the City University of New York $100,000 to set up programs which would facilitate graduate programs for Iranian students. But now, Queens College, part of the City system, is investigating the activities of the Iranian-funded program following charges that it is being used to gather information for SAVAK, the Iranian secret police. Nathaniel H, Siegel, acting president of the college, said the program provided courses in language skills and computer science for Iranian students. He added that the program also collected a “talent list;’' of Iranian graduate students,-for recruittpent for teaching in Iran. Critics charged that the list would be used by SAVAK to identify dissident Iranian students. Siegel has suspended the list-making activities, pending an — investigation. Rapid river shooters may be up a creek, even with a paddle (CPS) Those participants of the sport of descending the churning, white water of many of the country’s rivers had best begin to look for another way to get their thrills. The U.S. Customs Service has thrown a bucket of nails into the inflatable raft rental business. The Service has ruled that foreign-made crafts, roughly 60 percent ol the total in U.S. commercial use today, are in violation of the Jones Act, which prohibits foreign vessels from trafficking between U.S. ports. Most of the rafts come from Britain and France. Although the raft operators may ignore the Customs ruling, figuring that it is unlikely that an inspector will trek out into the wilds, the Coast Guard, if they decide to enforce the law to its letter, may prepare a series of regulations on raft safety that would require an inspection. And, according to the Guards’ Inspection Office, they “couldn’t certify a raft that was foreign made.” The rafts, which fit neatly into the definition of coastwise trade (they can carry up to twelve passengers and cargo between the two U.S. destinations, and successfully navigate the treacherous rapids), may be saved a beaching if a bill is passed by Congress exempting the a zens and $2.50 for the General rafts from the Jones Act. However, looking back on Congress’ track record for swift action, raft operators and participants had better start to seek alternative means of thrill-seeking. - Students at ease about ROTC (CPS) this year - More college students are marching toward their degree Army News reports that the college ROTC program has registered a gain in enrollment for a third consecutive year.

However, Jones’ career at Buffalo was not quite good enough to attract the attention of the pros. Seats! As a 6-6 freshman, Jones was Buffalo’s starting center. That year, he played more than any other year, averaging 9.2 points and 9.3 rebounds, which is very good for a freshman. He was a starter at forward his sophomore year, but was in and out of the line-up due to inconsistency. Against Rochester, his sophomore year, Mike had a career high of 30 points, but against Niagara that year, he shot a dismal l-for-16. “My second year was one of my worst years I felt I wasn’t doing anything in school, and it affected my playing,” Jones noted. — “Against Niagara, 1 wanted to do so well that I wasn’t relaxed,” he said. “I wanted to go out and score 30 points every game.” After his sophomore year, however, Jones married a girl he knew in high school. His new wife, Crystal, made a big difference to him. “She got my head together,” said Jones. “Before, I was going to drop out of school. She made me believe I could graduate. Marrying her was the turning point in my life for the better.” — Jones improved after that, his basketball statistics continued to worsen. His inconsistency also plagued him, and he found himself a rarely used substitute. “Had he played consistently,” said Buffalo coach Leo Richardson, “he would have been in a position to be drafted., The problem was his ability to make he wasn’t able to up his mind do that. He knew .he could play.” Mike improved his senior year. He still was inconsistent, but he was also brilliant at times; he was instrumental in beating Canisius, and played extremely well at Cleveland State. He finished his career with 491 points and 582 rebounds, for an average of 5.8 and 6.8 respectively.- His rebound total puts him fourth on the all-time Buffalo rebounding list. Although academically - —Koenig he was Looking could disappointed that, Buffalo only muster 28 wins in his four years here. “I think all the years I was here we had a chance to have a winning team,” Jones said. “But we lost a lot of games in overtime. back, UUAB presents BUFFALO'S THIRD ANNUAL 17th April! 5- FOLK FESTIVAL Tickets $4.00 each night $7.00 both nights students $5.00 each night $9.00 both nights public - - FRIDAY April 15th with M.C MICHAEL COONEY at 8:00 pm in Clark Gym TOM PAXTON Sunrise Highway Raun McKinnon - SUNDAY SATURDAY April 16th 8:00 pm in theFillmore Room BOYS OF THE LOUGH MICHAEL COONEY April 17th 5:00 pm in 1:00 the Fillmore Room — Square Dance WORKSHOP Margaret McArthur Pricilla Herdman Lisa Null & Bill Schutt John McCutcheon Buffalo Gals Robert Jr. Lockwood Janette Carter Charlie McGuire WITH The Rye Whiskey Fiddlers FREE DONT MISS THIS SPECTACULAR FESTIVAL!!!

A JV game in high school had more people than we have here. That has a great affect on the players. “1 played before 8,000 people in high school. That’s a real boost to the players. I believe if the school was behind the team, we’d have a better record. The fans should get behind the team all the time, even if they’re losing.” Not only is the attitude bad here, Jones said, but the facilities are horrible. Jones used as an example LeMoyne College in Syracuse, as the type of facility Buffalo should have. LeMoyne has only 1,800 students, but three ful gyms. Mike and Crystal will probabh move back to Akron after school is over. Mike hopes to get a job in his field of Urban Planning, while Crystal hopes to become a high school teacher. Basketball is still in Mike’s plans however. He wants to continue to play, hopefully to improve himself in a local basketball league. He’d like eventually to become a semi-pro player, and if he gets good enough, a pro player. Mike’s confidence hasn’t dimmed, 1 know I’m good however he lough,’’ proclaimed. Friday, 25 March 1977 .

Legal Services... —continued from page 3— The Supreme Court of the United States has consistently held an association’s right to hire an attorney is fundamentally protected by the Constitution. Number one priority Lippes and Director of Group Legal Services David Brownstein do not expect to have to go to court. They are seeking clarification from the SUNY the Board of Trustees on “Student Services” amendment. Such clarification should confirm the program’s legality and enable GLS to provide the services that they feel students clearly need. The program would be available to all undergraduates and learning a great deal.” Lorenzetti conceded that the consulting functions of Group students are Legal Services are educational in nature. He will not make a similar legal concession for representation. The “over-all” justification of the program was explained to Lippes and Brownstein. In order for students to pursue their educational careers, their general welfare must be taken into account. “Legal hassles can hinder an education just as much as medical problems,” said Lippes. Lorenzetti expressed doubts about the feasibility of the he claimed such doubts had nothing to do with his decision. The program, he program, reasoned, would be swamped with was aimed at the middle-income cases. students who can neither qualify for a public defender, nor readily afford private attorney’s fees. A survey conducted by SA several years ago revealed that students considered legal aid the number one priority among potential services. Currently, GLS can do no more than advise while the issue is pending. Brownstein pointed to many other services on campus that exist hassle-free. The pharmacy, birth control clinic, record co-op, and campus movies were all mentioned as examples of mandatory fee supported programs that stretch the guidelines to a degree, yet are allowed to function. When confronted with these apparent contradictions Lorenzetti explained how each of the above programs conforms. “The main function of the pharmacy is not to provide students with cheap perscriptions, but to educate pharmacy students working there,” he said. The birth tired “We are swamped with cases,” said Lippes, “but we can handle it. We’ve commited ourselves.” The number of people who come to Group Legal Services seeking assistance is testament" to the demand for such a program on this campus, he felt. False fears Lorenzetti cited the need to adhere to the fee guidelines, lest they be tightened by SUNY. “I’m not on a witch-hunt,” he said. “I’m trying to be as reasonable as I can. If the guidelines are abused, then they are going to be toughened, and no one wants out momentum. and lost their *■ The long season has come to an end for Lippes Loop, but the Boss Players will now represent this University in a tournament with the winners of the intramural programs at Canisius, Niagara and Buffalo State.

Additionally, NYPIRG wants to make this a long-term organizing program, and keep in contact with the various communities in order to facilitate mobilization against any future problems such as rate hikes. by Eric Nussbaum community at large, but Composition Editor The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) has launched a community organizing effort calling for a Public Service Commission (PSC) hearing to investigate windfall profits made by National Fuel Gas (NFG) during the recent winter blizzard. In addition, NYPIRG is requesting cash rebates for NFG’s residential customers based on these profits. During the winter quarter of 1976, NFG reported an earnings increase oif 77 percent over the same period in 1975. NYPIRG is working in conjunction with community, senior citizen, and taxpayer groups, and block clubs. Locally, the People’s Power Coalition, Women United for Action, and College F have joined in similar efforts. NYPIRG representatives are contacting political and community leaders and speaking to neighborhood organizations in order to elicit support. In a letter sent to L.R. Reif, president of NFG, NYPIRG requested a ten dollar rebate, claiming it was justifiable based on the record profits announced at this year’s stockholders’ meeting. Reif s office merely acknowledged receipt of the letter, making no response to the request. NYPIRG then initiated its campaign by circulating petitions, sample resolutions, leaflets and sample letters of protest, all endorsing a PSC hearing. ‘Near and dear’ The Public Service Commission is a state-wide organization which regulates investor-owned utilities. According to New York State law, utility consumers have the right to petition for lower rates. Spokesperson Paul Levitt views Feasible Since February 16, employees of NFG, the International represented by Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, h;lve been on strike. Although NFG is no longer paying wages, salary costs are still reflected in consumers’ bills. According to NYPIRG, NFG is collecting an additional $500,000 per week in excess revenue during the strike. NYPIRG believes that this additional income, plus the storm profits, make a ten dollar rebate feasible. NYPIRG points out that Rochester Gas and Electric Corporation and Brooklyn Union Gas Corporation have both returned cash rebates to their customers from profits made during this past winter. The PSC hearing requested by NYPIRG is a call to NFG to justify their denial of the rebate. , NYPIRG’s efforts as a “consciousness raising” regarding public knowledge of the workings of a corporation. “A ten dollar rebate,” he said, “will also show people that they can do something.” Although only 25 signatures are needed to file for a hearing with PSC, NYPIRG hopes to collect thousands of names in order to speed the process. Levitt feels that this is an issue “near and dear” to people Needed for Amherst construction SA, faculty may boycott banks refusing HFA bonds who pay bills, adding, “People sacrificed a lot during the storm, including Spokesperson Paul Levitt views NYPIRG’s efforts as “consciousness turning down the heat. Now it’s time for the gas companies to start sacrificing.” “A hearing will involve a lot of publicity which will work in our favor. NFG can always put out advertising, but to get the full picture, this is the way to do it.” The Student Association is threatening to sever ties with all local banks that refuse to purchase $3 million of bonds necessary to resume construction at the Amherst Campus. At tomorrow’s SA Senate meeting action to be taken against the local banks who have informally refused to purchase the state notes will be discussed. SA President Pennis Delia said there is a possibility that SA will withdraw its banking business from the uncooperative financial institutions, and encourage students to remove their personal accounts if these banks do not support SUNY construction. Delia plans to send personal correspondence to the heads of local banks explaining SA sentiments toward the construction issue and warning them of the possible consequences to be faced if they do not cooperate in this situation. Faculty movement There is also a grass roots movement developing within the faculty at this University to boycott these banks. Plans were circulating earlier this week to have the faculty members remove their personal accounts and restrict their future dealings with the non-supportive institutions. This University has the largest payroll in Aside from this denial, NYPIRG is also protesting the general rise in gas bills, which they claim have averaged a 40 percent increase since 1971. Thus far, NYPIRG has been endorsed by Councilmen George Arthur and Bill Price, State legislator Richard Slisz and Buffalo mayoral candidate James Griffin. They are also seeking help from interested members of the Buffalo and University communities. Western New York, which generates much banking business, warned a faculty member, assessing the possible damage to the business of those local banks. University President Robert Ketter is scheduled to meet today with representatives of the local banking community, in an effort to urge them to purchase $3 million of short term securities necessary to resume construction on the Amherst Campus. Officials from the Division of the Budget (DOB) will also join Ketter to lobby for financial support. DOB has pledged the release of $13 million in funds earmarked for Amherst construction, pending the $3 million purchase of bonds by local banks and business. Administrators at this University are hoping that Buffalo commerical banks will assume the responsibility of bond purchase, an act meant to restore confidence in the State Housing Finance Agency (HFA) and stimulate further bond sales among potential investors. The shaky status of HFA has left local investors fearful of additional commitment. The Buffalo Evening News reported last week that the local bankers do not plan participation in the investment program geared to stimulate further construction on the new campus. �f— ——- Foreign Students in the U,S. at Davis said that the major My Lai remembered (CPS) Nine years ago, the objective of students, good grades, world picked up the morning “is to their (the students) papers on March 12 and read detriment.

Grades, Stress, Competition Students hurt in the long run (CPS) Administrators at the University of California at Davis are concerned that students who see good grades as the major goal of their college career are not developing themselves as full persons because of the narrowness of that goal. Although competition for the best work possible is a driving force in college, students who earn poor grades may become depressed and see themselves as failures in both their short-range and lifetime goals.

SJ �Speakers urge independencefor Puerto Rico The attractiveness of huge profit margins is well advertised, pointing said out Lopez, by Brett Kline Feature Editor Alfredo Lopez of the Puerto Rican Socialist Party and Julie Nichamin from the Puerto Rican Solidarity Committee voiced strong support for an independent Puerto Rico Friday night in Squire Hall. The two speakers appeared as Part of a “Weekend in Solidarity with Puerto Rico” program sponsored by the Third World Student Association, PODER, Solidarity Rican Puerto Committee, Puerto Rican Chicano Learning Center and Adelante American Airlines brochures corporations to which urge relocate in Puerto Rico. While the wages are so low, he continued, 40 percent of the people are unemployed and the cost of goods is higher than in New York City. In addition, 87 percent of the island’s population Lopez began by asserting, “Everyone knows Puerto Rico is an American colony. There is no longer a debate about it. Even the it.” Continuing on this premis, he presented- the audience of about 60 with a staggering list of economic figures backing his contention that if Puerto Rico were to become a state, it would serve to enchance the federal government’s position. The issue system, monetary the and trade relations. system American industries located on the island are tax exempt and pay their workers 30 to 40 percent less than on the American mainland. stressed that Lopez independence and socialism are interrelated, and if Puerto Rico were to rid itself of its U.S. commonwealth status, all industry would have to be nationalized by underground Puerto Rican demanding independence for Puerto Rico, allegedly responsible for over 50 bombings in New York City. the new government. This action would be imperative to the survival of the Puerto Rican people a nation, while as “statehood would be the ultimate step in the liquidation of the possibility of Puerto Rico as a nation.” The maintainance of American control over Puerto Rico is imperative to federal and corporate interests because of the island’s strategic location, It is near the American mainland, just east of Cuba and relatively close to the Panama Canal. U.S. military bases, some of them equipped with nuclear arsenals, currently occupy more than 10 percent of the island’s “best farmable land.” As a result of this and “the contamination of other arable land by petroleum waste, there is no agriculture in Puerto Rico. Therefore, Puerto Rico consumes what it does not produce and Governor admits postal Industry nationalized Carter said that the Puerto Rican people should maintain their right to speak their native language, Spanish, a statement she termed the “height of arrogance. Who the hell is he to tell those people they can speak their own language,” she said. Nichamin commented on the recent subpoenas by' a federal Grand Jury of Maria Cuento and Raisa Nemekin, who work for the Hispanic Commission of the World Episcopal Church. They were called to testify about the activities of the Frente Armada industry.” Latinos. versus of statehood commonwealth versus independence is of late very controversial in Puerto Rico, where Lopez described politics as being “straight and traditional.” He stated that “U.S. capitalists” control 94 percent of Puerto Rico’s economy, including 90 percent of all industry, the at the bottom of a ski run in Vail, Colorado, were not' spontaneous, according to Lopez, but was a calculated decision made at the time of the Republican National Convention last August.* He contended that with the discovery of possible large oil deposits off the coast of Puerto Rico, Ford insuring was merely “easier exploitation by U.S. petroleum which already companies, comprises one third of the island’s Alfredo Lopez maintains its existence on Food Stamps. Twelve dollars of a tol,al $18 budget originates from Federal million million federal sources, Lopez emphasized, which means that “Puerto Rico is being subsidized by the American taxpayer.” Former President Gerald Ford’s remarks about statehood for Puerto Rico, reportedly made Radio managers respond del Liberacion National (FALN), an group Julie Nichamin what it does not consume,” Lopez concluded. ■ There are somewhat obvious reasons for strong U.S. concern over the Puerto Rican independence movement. As a socialist country, it could possibly seek strong economic ties with Communist countries, which would establish another strong Communist foothold in the Caribbean. This would be directly contrary to any U.S. interests there. Julie Nichamin, spokeswoman for the Puerto Rican Solidarity Committee, opened her short speech by criticizing President Jimmy Carter’s recent remarks to the Governor of Puerto Rico. by Beth Simon Staff Writer “I think it’s a rotten bummer!” the man shouted into the telephone. It was John McGan, program director for WGRQ, expressing his personal feelings about the possibility of WBUF-FM’s changing ownership. “Whenever you lose an album oriented station, it’s a drag BUF plays a very important role and does it very well,” he said. This was just one of a series of responses from the program directors qf several Buffalo radio stations, commenting about the possible sale of BUF to Robert Liggett, presently owner of five radio stations called “TriMedia.” The sale would entail a change in format from “progressive rock” to “contemporary pop” with an increase in commercial time from eight to 18 minutes per hour. The assumption has been made that adding another AM format station to an already flooded market would affect other radio stations. — owners desirable Frank Lorenz, president and general manager of WBLK forsees no real danger to the size of his listening audience. “The change should have no real effect as we deal primarily with a black audience,” he explained. We also have an entirely different format.” Local management is highly desirable, according to all the program directors questioned, because in that way a station is more aware of the community it serves and therefore can serve it better. Lorenz asserted that he was also in favor of local management but said that in the eve«t the sale of BUF is approved by the FCC, the same effects could be achieved by retaining Buffalo personnel. Such is not the custom, though, when a radio station changes hands. Time will tell Dave Hammon, program director for WBEN, was less knowledgeable about the impending sale. “I just read about it in today’s paper,” he said. BEN tries to capture an over-25 crowd by playing "adult, middle-of-the-road” music. Hammond felt his station’s programming was sufficiently different from a “top-forfy” format so as to be out of the range of competition. His major two women were subpoenaed the World Episcopal becapse Church supported a United Nations resolution condemning colonialism, and not because they were involved with FALN. They refused to testify and spent some time in a New York City jail before being released and ordered to reappear before the Grand Jury. During a question and answer period, Lopez was asked about the role of “armed struggle” in the fight for independence. He replied’ that it was a “provocative question, placing me in a delicate situation, because (the we Socialists) are a political party.” r''bob's don's'mo'b'il' I 632-9533 & Amherst Campus Road Service Towing Everything Automotive When in Doubt Call we offer STUDENT DISCOUNT FOR REPAIR WORK Use your Mobil Credit Card, Bank Americard or Master Charge.

Moore strongly favors local management but declined to make any personal assertions about the future of the station, saying, “I’ll have to see what they do.” “Jazz and middle-of-the-road is WEBR’s format, according to program director A1 Wallack.

He did not feel the change would hurt his station; in fact, he felt it might help McGan speculated that if WBUF shoots for a teen audience it will draw it from WKBW, which is WGRQ’s competition.

Welch Special to The Spectrum reservation, ‘"mental health problems have increased.” The report said the suicide rate among Indians is 1.8 times as high as that of all races and the homicide rate is three times greater. ' A recent federal study (CPS) on envirpnmental conditions that affect the health of Native Americans on the large Navajo — Reservation of Arizona, Utah and New Mexico, shows that most of the Indians’ health problems are still attributable to the encroachment of modern American society. The Navajo, “the largest and wealthiest Indian tribe in the United States,” the report said, suffer from inadequate housing, poor sanitation facilities, scanty supplies of good water, injury from highway accidents, disease transmiteted by garbage-feeding rodents and other animals, and “unsafe and unhealthful at Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) operated schools. “As the Indian people have been caught more and more in the conflict between their traditional culture and the demands of modern American society,” the Cultural differences To combat these problems and Indian Health others, the Committee (IRC) of the National Environmental Health Association, which conducted the believes the federal study, environmental health staff on the reservation “should be almost doubled.” The new personnel should be trained Navajos, the IHC said, in order to bridge cultural differences which have hindered the “acceptance of modern health practices.” The investigators made several specific suggestions for correcting some of the Navajos’ poor conditions. Although “most of the valued Navajo silver work is hammered,” 50 Indians work at a silversmithing plant in Arizona about where the work is done with blow torches. For these people, the investigators said better eye protection was needed. Also suggested was the use of face masks and other protective clothing by persons applying pesticides. And the fencing and posting of all radioactive tailings from uranium mines in the area, and decontamination Although the Navajo have taken an active interest in their own health since the establishment of the Health, Alcoholism and Welfare Committee by the tribal council in 1937, deaths from alcoholism are still 6.2 times higher than the general population, the report said.

The report said some 3,500 environmental health deficiencies exist within the BIA school system on the Navajo Reservation. The investigators blamed this situation on., the “accumulative effect of many years of inadequate funding” by the BIA. According to the study, the Navajo area has received “only 66 percent of what it should have” in maintenance funds. “The hazards of crowded living conditions and the lack of safe water and adequate disposal facilities have been and still are contributing factors to the high incidence of environmentally related disease,” such as bubonic and pnuemonic plagues, the report said. The federal response to this is' the building of more, extremely non-traditional, mass housing units. The federal study, which was conducted in May 1976 but this month, openly released admits the inadequacies of the BIA and other agencies now and in the past in their treatment of the Navajo and strives to find effective solutions to , the continuing problems that have arisen with the coming of American social pressures on the Indians.

Maintaining a healthy diet does not entail staying away from or eating only certain foods. Most important is understanding why products differ in nutritive and economic value, and how to sift through beefed up advertising claims to find the best buys. More than 200 types of food have been thoroughly evaluated in terms value, of nutritive chemical effects, processing additives and environmental contaminants in The Complete Food Handbook, by James Redding and Rodger Doyle on Grove Press. Redding, a former instructor in Rachel Carson Cellage and head resident of Fargo Quad in Ellicott, and Doyle, one a marketing executive in the food industry who also taught at Rachel Carson, have written about the American food scene from a skeptic’s point of view. Their book includes commentary and criticism of the food industry, thg and medical , authorities government agencies and also contains appendices with food charts and a glossary of terms. Problem is money “I think the problem with American food has to do with money.” says Redding. “Food companies are all tied up with profit and loss. But we’re not anti-establishment, we’re pro-consumer. We think people will understand more of the dynamics of food shopping by giving them a picture of the food industry. If the establishment were pro-consumer, we’d be pro-establishment.” The Handbook makes it clear that the food industry advertises to sell its products and not to educate people. Typical is the story of orange juice which is diluted to become orange drink. Normally only 10 percent real juice, and the rest water, the drink Would not sell without the addition of sugar, flavoring and orange coloring. In defending the use of such additives, the industry claims chemicals cut the cost of food because they are much less than natural expensive ingredients. Equivalency is the key concept, however. With drinks. the diluted, orange flavored and colored product no doubt will cost less than real orange juice perhaps half the price— but it contains only one-tenth the juice. Thus the chemicalized drink actually costs five times as much as real juice per ounce of natural ingredients. Harvested while unripe Included in the chapter on fruits and vegetables is the “fresh vs. frozen vs. canned” argument. Redding claims “frozen vegetables are often better than fresh,” because of the different processes involved in their production. He continues that freshly picked vegetables are nutritionally better than canned or frozen, but that the key phrase is “freshly picked.” For example, asparagus refrigerated for one week at 32 degrees may lose 50 percent of its vitamin C* if held at room temperature for only one day it may lose up to 40 percent. By comparison, blanching, the only heat treatment used in the processing of frozen asparagus, results in losses which average only five percent. Much of the produce sold as fresh is harvested while still unripe and then ripens during storage, a process which generally results in lower nutrient value than ripening oh the plant. While frozen produce goes through only one heat treatment, canned produce is subject to two high-temperature processing stages: heating, to create a and vacuum the can, in sterilization of the can. The latter step is especially destructive because temperatures are held at 250 degrees for up to 55 minutes. Too much meat In their discussion of meat, Doyle and Redding stress that COLD BEER Full Line of 3212 Main Street 836-0936 GrOwdries HOMEMADE SANDWICHES AND SALADS TO TAKE OU FRESH FRUITS AND VEGETABLES MAIN—SPEAR DELI - eat far more than they need to satisfy their protein to requirements. According Harvard nutritionist, Jean Mayer, a 10 percent cut in meat eating by Americans would release enough grain normally eaten by cattle to feed 60 million people. The authors avoid in any terms, however, specific arguments concerning a meat or vegetarian diet. The quality of protein in a food is largely measured by the balance of its constituent amino acids, with eight essential acids necessary to maintain life. Meat, poultry and fish have amino acid patterns that are well balanced and are thus considered to have high protein quality. Plant foods, on the other hand, are generally low in at least one amino acid Conveniently listed are meat and poultry products as they are offered to the consumer; e.g. sauce, beans with beef with gravy ■ or chopped chicken or turkey with broth. Important distinctions, such as protein and fat content* and additive and preservative concentrations, are made between these kinds of packaged meat products and the regular meat cuts found at supermarket meat counters and butcher shops. These regular meat cuts are further delineated into a grade system to help consumers chose wisely. Federally designed, the grade system was created to measure flavor, juiciness and tenderness for oven cooking or pan frying. The first three grades, “prime, choice, and good” are generally acceptable for oven cooking or frying, while the next two, “standards and commerical,” usually must be prepared with moist heat (steaming or stewing.) The Complete Food Handbook is a good reference source for shoppers seeking a balanced diet. Many confused consumers will find it helpful to have so much food information gathered in one place. The Handbook is available at the University Bookstore. However, it has not yet appeared in Ulbrich’s, Buffalo’s largest bookstore. A spokesperson there said the book “has been ordered and will probably arrive in three or four weeks.” Sub-Board I, Inc.

Page five . �Kids find student pals in program by Harold Fleisher Staff Writer Spectrum originally Be-A-Friend (BAF), a division of Community Action Corps (CAC), has provided friendship and guidance for troubled children in the Buffalo area for nearly six years. In that time, the program has provided 1000 youths with desperately needed big brothers and sisters. BAF According to Assistant Director Kevin McQuillen, just having someone who cares can make the whole difference. “This is not a transportation or activities program,” McQuillen stressed. “The main aspect of this program is the friendship involved, someone to be there.” Many of the children helped by BAF come from broken homes, usually living with one parent or with foster parents. The children usually ranging in age from 6 to 16 are referred to the program by either parents, counselors or social workers who attempt to find a way for ' - « these youths to adjust to their homelives. The majority of the 200 children currently in the program are from a low socioeconomic class who are in dire need of companionship. . BAF Acting Director Bob Moss began the program six years ago to answer the large demand for big brothers and sisters. Originally, the program was funded by CAC and operated out of their offices in Squire Hall. Following BAF’s break from the University in 1974, the Buffalo Youth Board began funding the program. Currently the UB Foundation handles all monies donated to the program while their office space is donated by the University. There are over 30,000 male and female youths in need of this program, and McQuillen claimed “there is a great need for male volunteers.” BAF volunteers, primarily local college students, are carefully screened before being accepted in the program. The screening consists of 3 to 4 interviews which are geared to discerning the volunteers’ motives and COLLEGE STUDENTS PART TIME Earn $10.00 per hr S.A.

Volunteers, are also told to use “logical guidance” in the pursuit of helping the child cope with his or her environment and that they should not try to change it. Common interests of the' applicants and child are compared, hopefully leading to a compatible relationship. Volunteers must commit themselves for a minimum of one year of service to the program, to insure a lasting relationship. McQuillen stressed that a short relationship would cause more harm than good. He added that most relationships initiated through the program usually help form long-term friendships. He stated that many volunteers keep in contact with their adopted brothers and sisters after a long period of time. Many volunteers in this program have had similar experiences to the children and are sympathetic to the situation. McQuillen added it was important for the volunteer to “understand the needs of the children, and also to know where they’re coming from. Be-A-Friend is not a cure all.

Wednesday, 23 March 1977 �EditPrial Money talks Encouraging the student body to boycott local banks who are, in effect, helping to hold up Amherst construction by not purchasing bonds would certainly be a constructive way for the newly-elected Student Association (SA) officials to start off their administration. Once conceived as the "crown jewel" of the State University system, the Amherst campus now stands 40 percent completed, years past its projected completion date. No new construction has been initiated on the campus in more than a year. There are inadequate facilities provided for the students who must use the campus, and for the departments who are caught in limbo, especially those presently housed at the Ridge Lea Campus. The expenses of renting Ridge Lea and bussing students among the three campuses have been borne too long, and have eaten up monies that should have been used for this University's pursuit of academic excellence. There are other problems involved with Amherst construction of course: the Division of the Budget has failed to release almost $56 million in construction funds already appropriated; Governor Hugh Carey has apparently wavered in his support for the campus in his Executive budget; and, Stony Brook is clamoring for money for their own construction. Should the Senate decide to call for a boycott of local banks, SA's own substantial Marine Midland account would , be a good place to start. Call for NFG rebate As the worst winter in Buffalo's history draws to a close, National Fuel Gas (NFG) profits have reached an all-time high. While appealing to their customers to conserve fuel supplies, threatening cutoffs to businesses and industries, and asking for school closings, they have offered no help to the troubled consumer who, along with the burden of higher than average gas bills, has been victimized by the brutal weather in many other ways. Buffalo's unemployment, already staggering, was compounded by closings and layoffs necessitated by the fuel crisis. The New York Public Interest Research Group's (NVPIRG) efforts to secure an NFG rebate for its local customers deserve full public support. The combined pressure of NVPIRg, community groups, and student groups should all be brought to bear on NFG, in order to bring the rebate into reality Guest Opinion Michael Sartisky Stratton Rawson Christine Lubinski Brian Caraher Janies Guthrie as individuals; Rebecca Cochran Melanie Mecca Paul Tidwell Louis Morgan The non-voters have won again, aided by the “professionally” minded, by the selfish and by the intimidated. Think of the grins and relief in Hayes Hall where the only good action is an inaction. The administration’s men have won, but ALL TAs and GAs will be the losers not just those who voted affirmatively. We will all bear the cost, for the vote will be taken as a license to continue the deterioration. We will bear witness as lines and programs disappear, as workloads increase, as women and minorities are systematically excluded, and we will know that it is because we did not act. The vote in the GSEU’s self-monitored referendum was 269 in favor of striking and 270 against; it failed by one vote. How did it happen? Several hundred TAs and GAs were morally negligent enough to simply not vote. Others, vulnerable students, were especially foreign intimidated by their departments and professors. In the Physics Department, for example, the following letter was signed by professors and circulated Wednesday to grad students: “Please let tne know and certainly no later than 10 o’clock tomorrow morning whether you intend to participate in the proposed GSEU strike.” Coupled with President Ketter’s public threat that the lines of GAS and TAs who did not meet their classes would be in jeopardy the threat is ummistakable.. Small wonder that the vast majority of that department did not vote. But it is true that the administration did not intimidate ev.eryone. They did not need to. There were those to whom they could simply appeal on the — Wednesday, 23 March 1977 Vol. 27, No. 69 Editor-in-Chief - Richard Korman Laura Bartlett Managing Editor Managing Editor Fredda Cohen Jerry L.

And the administrators themselves, what can we expect for them? A hundred bucks here, more cuts there. A “Committee” to oversee our work. Teaching required for the degree with NO pay. - More tuition increases. Fewer women and minorities in graduate programs. (We know of fewer than 12 American minority TAs and GAs.) Yes, we know what to expect from them if left alone. They may have “won” this one vote, but they are still what they are. Only we of the Union are still here. So let us make ourselves very clear. Drs. Somit and Holt: we want access to information and we shall have it. Dr. Ketter: we are still employees despite your “biases” and WE SHALL HAVE THE CONTRACT TO WHICH WE ARE ENTITLED. Organizing goes on. The Spectrum show criticized 9 To the Editor. The Spectrum basis of their “professionalism.” All too often in our organizing did we encounter fellow grad students who would say, “I don’t care what happens here after I leave. I’m here to get my degree and get out.” A most respectable attitude. It is this attitude to which the administration has catered and which it fostered. “Be professional,” they say, “teach those classes, no matter how large they are.” Professionals don’t strike.” “Be professional, take the cuts with good grace, after all, you have your line.” “Professionalism” of this nature is pure selfishness. 270 votes for the status quo. How many of the 270 have done anything to improve or protect the very programs in which they participate? Petition they say. Lobby they say. We have done it all. But what have they done? They have told the administration that the cuts are acceptable. They have told the administration that the lies and contradictory information are acceptable. They have told the administration that intimidation is the Spectrum music staff was given six hours of time on WBUF, on Monday the 14th. They were given control of programming from 12 midnight to 6 a.m. Previously, ope of The Spectrum staff writers, Dimitri Papadopoulos, had asked us if we were interested in having one half hour’s worth of Pepperwood Greene tapes played during The Spectrum's alloted time. We naturally agreed. Later that week we met with Dimitri and James Braun at WBUF to edit the half hour of music. On Sunday morning Dimitri informed us that he had been promised the tape would be played sometime around 1:30 a.m. It obviously benefits a local band to have its music played on the radio, even late Sunday night, and naturally we asked a good number of people to listen in. By 2 a.m. the tape had not been played, although The Spectrum D.J.’s, John Duncan and Harold Goldberg, mentioned that they were going to play it. No specific time was given. It was around this time that we called WBUF, asked what time the tape would be played, and explained that we had asked a number of people to listen. They said over the phone that they didn’t know what time it was going to be played. Immediately afterwards they announced over the air that they had received a phone call concerning the tape and were going to play it around 4:30, no maybe 5:30 in the morning. For most of the show John Duncan and Harold Goldberg had been making jokes, comments, and conducted themselves in a way suggesting that they were to have a good time and didn’t really care about the material being played, including our tapes. About one half of the tape was played around 4 a.m. and to our knowledge the rest of it was never played. Pepperwood Greene has been a working part time band in Buffalo for four years. It is necessary for a band to get exposure in order to survive, and getting it is not always easy. We were very-grateful for the opportunity offered to us, but must protest the unprofessionalism and lack of sensitivity of The Spectrum D.J.’s. We would rather have had no exposure than the quality of what we received. Donald 1. Kraus Ted Lehman of Pepperwood Greene Syndicate. (c) 1977 Buffalo, N.Y. The Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc.

A dog wanders about aimlessly . That was in Hoover’s time! Now it’s 1968. 1 have been out covering Robert Kennedy’s presidential campaign. Word comes that King is murdered. As our plane flies back to Washington incredible bulletins come back to the press from the cockpit; reports we can’t believe. And yet, as we approach Washington and see the big Capitol dome a wisp of smoke floats behind it. It is worse than 1 imagined. It is evening; lights are on along F Street, the better to lopt with. They are breaking glass at a clothing store and the alarm is ringing. The shoestore beside it is already looted. Attention turns to the radio store across the street. The elders look on, hang back; the teenagers dare each other, laughing, and dart across the street for a bite or two at Ihe white man’s store, like a school of pirannas tearing a corpse. Why did they murder Martin Luther King? A police car goes by, stops, and goes on. Glass shatters again and a youth passes out articles from the store; one grabs a tape recorder and runs. Occasionally a late home-going car comes down the street not stopping except, oddly enough, for traffic lights. That symbol still holds, Kaufman’s Department Store is looted. On Pennsylvania Avenue I pass the place where 1 was holed up in the bonus riots years before. Violence is out from the manholes again. Now it is 1977. What is different today is the total coverage on radio and television. The city is not paralyzed at all. Youngsters are throwing frisbees in Lafayette Park. President Carter is greeting Prime Minister Callaghan, but without cannon salutes to fray nerves. The terrorists are getting what all terrorists want, maximum attention; the media are hostages, too. The District Building, or town hall, is on a kind of island, with a parking lot behind, and 1 circumnavigate it. The swelling elm buds make a brown mist overhead and one or two azalea blossoms have popped. We all gather beside Casimer Pulaski. His equestrian statue shelters radio men and TV crews and me. Everybody has a kind of nervous gaiety and 1 suddenly remember that’s the way it is. We look across at the silent, lethal top floor of the District building; the gunmen have 11 hostages, with another 30 city workers barricaded by themselves and fearful of being stormed. They lower ropes for food, . TRB The British came this way to burn the White House. But the present peril is home-made. I am standing on Pennsylvania Avenue where twice before each time different but each I have seen violence time with the same sense that anarchy is close, banging the very manhole covers to get out. The first time was the bonus riots under Herbert Hoover; they used tear gas then. After that was the riot when Martin Luther King was murdered in 1968, Tear gas again. Now there is a new twist. A line of orange traffic cones cordons off Pennsylvania Avenue because religious terrorists have grabbed three buildings and are holding them with hostages. It is eerily quiet. This is normally one of the busiest corners in town; there is a bus stop and no buses, a traffic light and no traffic. A patrol car watches across the Avenue. Two blocks down is the white six-story District Building, its top floor seized. Everybody watches it; nothing happens. Just a kind of violent silence. that was It was different in Hoover’s time noisy. My memory goes back to it. The nation is caught in the Depression and 8000 jobless veterans are encamped down the Avenue in a five-block area demolished for new Federal buildings. They plead for a bonus from Congress. Major General Douglas MacArthur and his aide (what’s his name? somebody called Eisenhower) push them out. Hoover issues a proclamation. “Many are Communists and persons with criminal records,” he says. “They must leave.” I go inside the shell of the former Steuart’s Ford agency, with a good view of the cordoned Avenue. Lower floors are filled with cots and bedding. A crowd watches across the Avenue. The police are in blue shirts; it’s July hot. Here come the troops. No flags, no band; a couple of tanks. The veterans can’t believe it. Most wear rags of their old uniforms. There is a brisk command down below, a rattle, the troops are fixing bayonets. “Buddies!” cry the veterans. The officer in the street yells up, “You got three minutes to clear out. Three minutes; 1 warn you!” Most decide to quit. They grab belongings. I move up a floor where a lone veteran is stretched on a cot with a bandaged eye; a fight, maybe. The roof gives a good view. There is another rattle below; troops put on masks. A tremor goes through the three or four of us on the roof. The tanks start their rattling engines; police hastily cross to the other side. Somebody throws a stone; the riot starts. A soldier pulls back his arm like a pitcher and throws a can. “Phosgene!” screams a veteran. It isn’t that, of course; it’s crying gas. The can hisses and emits white tentacles. Suddenly the crowd across the way wilts and runs; they have caught it. Our roof is safe like a mountain above clouds. Half an hour later a clean-up squad finally spots us and a blond boy of about 18 puts a bayonet at my chest. We are crying so hard as we descend that they have to guide us. Soldiers burn huts and tents. — ; Page ten . • t Casimer Pulaski 1747-1779. . . He’s on a kind of traffic triangle. Behind him is the National Theater showing “BULLY,” the one-man show about Teddy Roosevelt with James Whitmore. Nobody is in the theater foyer, I discover, but a little man behind the ticket grill tells me there will be no performance tonight absolutely unless unless that other show across the Avenue is over “by six.” He’s precise about curtain time. Terrorists make their demand today by telephone; radio picks up their voices. That’s the new feature. Violence and anger are instantaneously broadcast into the living room. It blots out everything else; the technical marvel that transmits the crisis creates the crisis. A young man at Princeton has just submitted a highly praised paper on how to make an atomic bomb. Not too difficult to do, he says. What if terrorists get one? The veneer of life is getting thinner. I still hear that alarm bell ringing in the shoe store long ago, even as the looting went on. It was calling civilization to come. The Spectrum . Wednesday, 23 March 1977 — In solidarity To the Editor. On behalf of ourselves and the GSF.U, we would like to publicly recognize the commitment and support of undergraduates during our recent strike building efforts. Members of the Undergraduate Support Committee spent four long weeks educating themselves and others about the GSEU; writing leaflets, canvassing dorms, sitting at GSEU information tables, and contacting student groups. The myth of a conflict of interests between and undergraduates was effectively graduates debunked by the collective work of union members and undergraduates. Undergraduates not only recognized common interests, but acted on them. Women’s Studies College wrote the GSEU a strong letter of support and also offered concrete suggestions for cultural and alternate education activities, provided personnel for pickets, and generated many useful ideas for the Women’s Caucus work on affirmative action. Undergraduates wore union support buttons, attended our fundraisers, joined informational pickets, and applauded the GSEU Rally Song in cafeterias across the three campuses. We would like to extend a special thanks to those individuals who lost sleep and study time making banners and posters and lending sorely needed moral support to tired uniop organizers. Even though we did not meet on the picket lines, our mutual support can and will continue. The threats to public higher education and the Ketter Administration’s complicity leave us only each other to look to for support and to organize resistance. We reaffirm our commitment to an educational system which serves the needs of all who work and study here as we salute the dedication of those who share it and will continue to work for its realization.

Though you have printed many of my letters (and maybe even this one) you have never granted us the courtesy you've just shown Hare Krishna (nor has it been granted to the other campus ministries).

Rubin Special Features Editor The State of New York today announced that the Amherst Campus would in fact be entirely the 1978-79 completed by academic year. In a press release handed down yesterday, the State quashed a sea of rumors which said that some of the new facilities were being totally eliminated while others would not be completed before 1985. The report was read at a press conference by State spokesman Bjor Ocracy. He said not only would all Amherst facilities be completed as planned, but they would be built for just $50,000, tens of millions less than originally anticipated. Ocracy said the cost savings are a result of careful budgeting and “sound governmental decisions.” He explained that the reduction in cost would come primarily out of the labor and materials lines. “Some of our materials will not be of as high a quality as in the past, but inflation and budget restraints have forced us into a weakened position,” said Ocracy. “However, I am able to announce that we have just this morning signed contracts with Tinkertoy, Ocracy then discusses the labor explaining that the savings, construction and architectural functions were being combined and performed by one group. “We felt the new materials warranted new blueprints,” said Ocracy. “Therefor^, - I am most gratified to announce that we have arranged to hire third graders from the Lake Road Elementary School in Clarence to supervise and construct all new Amherst campus facilities.” Ocracy continued, “We feel expertise with the new building materials makes them more qualified to build our campus than any old architect.” their The Organization of Arab Students and THE MIDDLE EAST COMMITTEE of THE COUNCIL ON INTERNATIONAL STUDIES (SUNYAB) invite you to attend a lecture Ocracy added that since the students are minors, minimum wage laws do not apply. “Our agreement with the Lake Road School calls for payment in Oreos and Eskimo Pies,” said Ocracy. He Applications for the position of Editor-in-Chief of The Spectrum for the 1977-78 academic year will be accepted until Wednesday, March 30. The application should be in the form of a letter to the Editorial Board stating reasons for interest in the position, qualifications, and previous journalistic experience. The position is open to any student enrolled at the State University of New York at Buffalo. The Editorial Board will interview all candidates on Thursday evening, March 31. Prospective candidates are asked to contact Richard Korman, Room 355 Norton Hall, to familiarize themselves with procedural questions about the position or about The Spectrum.

A planning committee chaired by eight-year-old Ralphie Littlekid has already drawn up some ideas. discussed his Littlekid committee’s plans for the physical education building. He said, “We wanna make 16 see-saws and two merry-go-rounds.” He added, “There will also be seven indoor hopscotch courts.” Ocracy did admit that one new expense would be incurred because of the employment of the third graders. He said, “We have been on the phone with Lloyds of London, and for $50,000 a year they will insure us against the “willful knocking down” of any building by any builder’s brother or sister up to the age of 17.” Dear Friend B"H In accordance with Jewish Law, all "Chometz" (Leavening or derivatives of same) may not be in the possession of a Jew during the Passover Holiday.

The tournament attracted 148 participants from as far away as Syracuse and Southern Ontario. Eight men’s teams and five women’s teams competed, including teams from Buffalo, Buffalo State, Brockport and many private judo clubs, reported tournament director William Greco. Buffalo’s women’s team, consisting of senior Margot Eckert, junior Mary Jane Stein and freshman Debbie Calabria, started the match by defeating Buffalo State 3-0. In the championship round, they upset the Kawasaki Judo Club women’s team 2-1. The Kawasaki Judo Club members all had blue belts, while none of the Buffalo women were ranked that high.

Buffalo State defeated Buffalo 3-0. Many of Buffalo’s players were playing in their first rugby game ever, and so Buffalo was at a the disadvantage over well-established Buffalo State and Brockport squads. In fact, this is the rugby club’s first year of to existence, and according captain Richard Pitbladdo, the club doesn’t receive any money from the Student Association. Buffalo’s forwards (the equivalent of linemen in football) were the team’s strongest point. In fact, Buffalo’s forwards were stronger than either the Brockport or Buffalo State forwards. However, Buffalo’s weakest tpoint was their backs, who carry the ball. Most of Buffalo’s inexperienced players were backs. Thursday Night 8:00 pm drops its first contest winner of .

Cornell, with 35 players, constantly substituted new men into the game in an effort to fatigue the Buffalo team. Buffalo was able to stay within five goals of Cornell at the half, but the Big Red continued to run, and Buffalo couldn’t catch up. Led by John Cohan, third in the nation this year in throwing the frisbee for distance, Cornell was able to score on long passes and by moving the frisbee down field with short and intermediate length passes. Despite making the road trip with only one half of the team, Buffalo played a very tough, team oriented game. When Buffalo took its time in moving the frisbee down field, using quick short passes, they were usually able to score. Most of their turnovers occurred when, in an attempt to score quickly, the Bulls threw long bombs which were easily defended against unless executed with perfect precision. Buffalo’s next scheduled tournament is at Pittsburgh against Carnegie-Mellon University and Oberlin University. -Kevin Luks Ify Wilkeson - m If you don't vote — don't BITCH!! m v.v.

Partisan media campaigns and Legislative infighting are expected to escalate this week as the Assembly and Senate vote on Governor Carey’s recommended State budget.

We can only trust each other I don’t trust Ketter just as I don’t trust the Buffalo weather.” administration. Rawson warned, “We can only The Student Graduate back if you watch, work, and be Union Employees (GSEU) strike statement A prepared concerning the referendum was read to local newspaper reporters during a meeting Friday in Diefendorf Hall: Figures disclosed for the first time last week show that Stony Brook, now waging an intense, well-organized campaign to get SUNY Buffalo construction monies, has actually received almost twice as much funding as Buffalo, which is designed to accommodate 7000 more students upon completion. “What we’ve found in these figures,” said President Robert Ketter, “is that we are extremely efficient, doing a very good job with our nloney compared to Stony Brook. According to the totals, they are more elaborate and much less efficient than we had thought in the past. To tell you the truth, I’m simply floored by these numbers.” Stony Brook 90 percent completed Where Stony Brook has received approximately $588 million to date for its core campus, Health Science complex and utility projects, Buffalo has received only $301 million. Most of Stony Brook’s construction took place in the 1960’s, when building and labor costs were significantly less expensive. Costly construction expenses, combined with the higher rates of inflation under which SUNY Buffalo has to build, make the disparity even greater. At present, Stony Brook is also slated to receive over twice as much as Buffalo in the Legislature’s Supplemental Budget. With its more plentiful funding, Stony Brook has been able to build 90 percent of its planned facilities, while Buffalo has been held to a mere 40 percent. Furthermore, unlike Stony Brook, Buffalo is under the constraint of a construction spending ceiling of $650 million, set in 1967. Since that time, the $650 million figure has been considerably eroded by inflation “With construction frozen and inflation rates the way they are,” says Ketter, “we’re watching our $650 million rapidly go up in smoke.” Blank check SUNY Buffalo is the only campus in the State University system that is confined by a ceiling on construction spending. Stony Brook and the other 64 SUNY campuses are funded step by step, with no set limits on spending. “Stony Brook has been given a blank check of sorts,” says one administrator here, “and although we’re far behind them in construction and subject to a limit on our allocations, they’re still trying to lay claim to a lot of our money.” A February New York Times article reported: “So far, Stony Brook’s leaders point out coyly that the effort [to secure additional money] has paid off.” Because the Amherst Campus (originally to be completed in 1972) is less than half built, departments have not been able to vacate the Main Campus. This makes it difficult to justify funds for the conversion of Main Street into a Health Science complex. Stony Brook has received $352 million so far toward its Health Science complex. Legislative battle The contest for appropriations is apparently a political showdown. Though SUNY Buffalo’s new campus is 12 years behind schedule and less than half complete, Stony Brook proponents are planning “to wage a floor fight” in the State Legislature to obtain a better portion of the SUNY system’s and specifically SUNY Buffalo’s construction budget. On February 27, The New York limes ran an article which stated “Arthur J. Kremer, Democrat from Long Island and Chairman of the Assembly Ways and Means Committee, wrote the SUNY Trustees with a thinly veiled threat to torpedo the Buffalo construction plan unless [Stony Brook] was also carried through as originally planned.” Besides Kremer, Stanley Steingut, the Assembly Speaker from Brooklyn, and Perry Duryea, Minority Leader from Montauk, are exerting heavy political pressure in Stony Brook’s behalf From the Buffalo area. Senator James McFarland and Assemblyman James Fremming head the list of legislators, including Assemblymen Hoyt, Eve, Walsh and Kidder, and Senator James Griffin, trying to muster their own political leverage in behalf of SUNY Buffalo. — Page two .

There was an air of nervous excitement, as avid GSEU members handed out leaflets explaining the rules of the meeting while people trickled into the lecture hall. After Rawson’s rousing speech, the meeting was opened for proposals on what action should now be taken. Graduate student Michael Walsh, seated in the center aisle with the rest of the GAs and TAs, began this section of the meeting with a proposal calling for a strike referendum for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week. “I suggest we try it,“ he said. One undergraduate student remarked, “Many may have been disenfranchised by Ketter and the weather.” His suggestion to extend the vote to today was met with a rebuttal from a member of the group of TAs and GAs who GSEU Stratton Secretary Rawson aired his “shock at the loss” and called for unity among all graduate and teaching and (GAs TAs). assistants Recalling last year’s strike vote which failed by 17 votes, he said, “I stayed then, and I will stay now!” He referred to the COLLEGE STUDENTS administration as “vicious men” PART TIME Earn $10.00 per hr who are driving the GSEU to as an American Youth Enterprise desperation. - - Dealer Rawson made a special point of complimenting Blue Bird bus stood up and said the proposal be construed by the administration as trying to drag out the votes.” A low bu?z of discontent from the audience followed, and the proposal was dropped for lack of support. “may Write Fred Novak, Dept.

The scheduled move from Norton (Squire) Hall to the new campus will not be completed for another five years due to the delay in construction of three of the six buildings slated to house student organizations on the Amherst Campus. The Amherst Campus as it now stands. The campus was expected to boost the suffering Buffalo economy; however, there are now only 200 construction workers employed at Amherst, compared to 2800 during the construction peak. The Division of the Budget has announced it will release funds to resume construction, pending $3 million worth of bonds purchased by local banks, ostensibly a symbol of community support. The banks have informally refused the plan. — — tower. projects. Of that $65 million, Stony —continued on page 4— Bond purchase informally rejected Ketter urges Buffalo banks support construction by Fredda Cohen Managing Editor University President Robert Ketter will meet with the heads of local banks Wednesday, urging them to purchase $3 million worth of short-term bonds necessary to resume construction of the Amherst Campus. The State Division of the Budget has pledged the release of $13 million in funds for Amherst Construction, pending the sale of the $3 million to local banks or businesses. University administrators had hoped Buffalo commercial banks would assume the responsibility of bond purchasing, rekindling faith in the State’s Housing Finance Agency (HFA) bonds, whose precarious state has left local investors leery of further commitments. An article in last Wednesday’s Buffalo Evening News revealed that local bankers will not participate in the plan geared to stimulate building on the new campus, further damaging HFA’s shaky credibility. ‘Not definite’ However, Donald C. Cielewich, the regional vice president for Marine Midland Bank Western told The Spectrum on Friday that the decision is “not definite.” Ketter and representatives from the Division of the Budget will lobby before the Buffalo Clearing House comprised of all 11 local banks in an effort to reassure the bankers - - that HFA bonds will be strongly backed by tuitions. As of now, the bankers are hesitant to purchase bonds which they feel are not earmarked for Amherst Construction. Although Ketter has repeatedly asserted that the money is specifically designated for the new campus, bankers are still doubtful that the allocation can be guaranteed. Furthermore, Cielewich noted that HFA is the only agency in New York that can issue notes for construction. Currently, HFA has better than $500 million worth of short term notes that must be purchased to initiate all state construction. Local support a must The short-term bonds must be paid with interest to the investors within 18 months. The bonds are then converted into long-term bonds, which are backed by tuition and sold on the open market. Apparently, the local banks are not confident that the State will be able to pay off the bonds within the 18 month period, especially since HFA came close to default in 1975. At this time, it is unlikely that the Division of the Budget will release more construction funds if the University cannot muster local support. “The state is telling the local bankers that they want some indication that the community’s banks are interested enough in these projects to the point that they will buy a major percent of these bonds for construction,” explained University Information Director actually James DeSantis. “In reverse, the banks seem to be saying they’re not sure the money will go to these projects specifically, so that finally, neither will move.” Elwood Wardlow, Managing Editor of the Buffalo Evening News, said that even though five of the local banks have already decided against financing the bonds, and the remaining six will in all possibility make a similar decision, “there could be a turn-around.” An absolute necessity The banks have too much of a portfolio, Wardlow explained, and are not anxious to undertake more. They are also uncertain as to the prudence of purchasing these type of bonds, despite the University’s insistence that the bonds are financially sound. Referring to the bonds, Wardlow said, “I think perhaps they are a little more valid than the banks would at first think.” Wardlow said he had written to many legislators, urging support in Albany for the completion of the Amherst Campus. He said, however, the paper would not editorialize on the purchase refusals until it was certain that the banks had been “strongly encouraged” and that their refusal would kill any chance of construction funding by the State. Ketter has called the bond purchase “an absolute necessity.” Monday, 21 March 1977 . The Spectrum Page three . �Stony Brook, Buff(do. The four-course load lingers at Binghamton —~ Another indication that the Brook campaign was successful is Governor Carey’s present Executive Budget. Stony Brook is slated to get $17.4 million for its construction and new equipment budget while SUNY Buffalo is listed for $9.9 these categories, in million according td the Budget. In regard to SUNY Buffalo, the Executive Budget eliminates four essential buildings from Amherst the Music and Chamber Hall, the Health, Phys.

The decreased busing budget will further complicate matters by over-taxing what remains of Buffalo’s operating budget — • The pressure from SUNY Central was applied last summer in the proposing that Buffalo form of the Dearing Memorandum, a document here and Binghamton adopt the 3 credit, 5 course system. The response during day is hour the when no Hour.” This an “Noon is the proposed classes will be scheduled. Courses which cannot justify their four credit and thus rating will schedule extra contact hours during this hour, avoid having to meet on four different days. However, Binghamton seems to have appeased SUNY Central without changing the number of contact hours in most of its courses. Matt Moser, News Editor of Binghamton’s student publication, Pipe Dream explained that Binghamton has chosen instead to justify the retention of its present system. In December 1976, Binghamton submitted an extensive report concerning its curriculum to SUNY Central. In this report, all'courses offered were broken down into four categories, each category representing a different means of — SUNY Staff Writer justification. courses having The course breakdown is as follows; 32 percent weekly lqbs, studios, recitations, etc., such that total contact time is courses holding required but greater than four hours; nine percent irregular meetings such as field, trips, movies and guest lectures; six courses having optional meetings such as those mentioned percent courses having extraordinary requirements above; 48 percent (homework, projects) such that the student receives the equivalent of an extra hour of instruction. Five percent of the courses do not fit any category, but according to Sheldon Grebstein, Dean of Arts and Sciences and Harpur College at Binghamton, additions will be made to the requirements of these courses so that they will meet the qualifications of one of the four categories. Grebstein said the School of Arts and Sciences is not planning to reduce the credit value of any of its courses, although this may occur in other parts of the University. - - — - strained which it must provide to transportation to three separate maintain campuses. The pursuit of construction funds appears to have divided Democratpoliticians into Republican and lipstate-downstate factions.

Downstate, however, Assembly Speaker Stanley Steingut (D-Brooklyn) Assembly and Minority Leader Perry Duryea reportedly (R-Montauk) are pushing hard to get more funds for Stony Brook some of them possibly out of SUNY Buffalo’s party — budget. Stony Brook officials using been economic have and enrollment data to convince the public and the legislature of their needy state of affairs. They point to a 10 percent unemployment rate among Long Island construction workers to emphasize the need for a new flow of construction dollars into the Suffolk County area. They also stress a general jobless figure of 7 percent. Proponents of the Amherst suffers a 25 percent shortfall. Money diverted to Stony Brook “That’s hard to believe,” said Information Director DeSantis, “considering the fact that SUNY Buffalo had over 18,000 freshmen applicants and was able to accept only 2600. We registered one out of every nine applicants in the State last year, and we were in the highest demand of any of the 66 SUNY campuses.” Although the SUNY Board of Trustees has recently reiterated their pledge to complete the Amherst Campus, and outgoing SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer has said “Stony Brook’s gain will not be Buffalo’s loss,” sources close to the situation say it is still possible that some of the money promised to SUNY Buffalo could be diverted to Stony Brook. Downstate legislators, in fact, seem to be working toward this SUNY other were campuses receiving additional funds including Stony Brook, which had not requested the money they got.” — Buffalo’s stagnant economy Stony Brook now stands 90 percent completed, compared to a 40 percent completion mark for Amherst. The downstate school is able at present to accommodate 17.000 of a projected 19,000 total enrollment. Amherst, scaled down to a planned capacity of 25,500 from an original 40,000 projection, is now ready for only 10.000 students. Sources close to Amherst say that 600 construction construction workers could go to work within 3 months if SUNY Buffalo received the $13 million it needs to start construction. Three years ago there were 2800 construction workers building the Amherst Campus; there are now less than 200. Local legislators have tied the Buffalo’s stagnant economy.

He explained that SUNY Central has accepted the report and will allow retention of the four course load for the time being. However, Binghamton will have to submit i comprehensive evaluation concerning every course in the curriculum. Grebstein estimates this report will be two years in the making, and there is no guarantee that SUNY Central will not apply more pressure during that time. “It is by no means a comfortable situation,” said Grebstein. “However for this semester, we have satisfied Central. At the moment, we do not have underway any drastic overhaul.” Buffalo and Binghamton may also be headed for some fiscal woes next year. A proposed new definition of the Full Time Equivalent student (FTE) may mean less money for the two schools in 1977-78. Both Buffalo and Binghamton presently receive more money than their fifteen-credit counterparts, since it presumably costs more to deliver sixteen credits worth of instruction. The new FTE would simply be defined as any student taking twelve or more credits, and thus the two SUNY University Centers would lose their monetary edge. If implemented, the new FTE would make the four/five course load argument moot from a financial point of view, since it would no longer matter whether a school used a fifteen or sixteen credit system per semester. However, the other advantage of the four course load would not'be affected, and the two schools would most likely still try to retain it. — GRAND OPENING!

AMHERST CAMPUS CAKK 632-2371 �Guerilla tactics ‘Job Doctor offers advice Cornell Law School 7 by Elaine Levinstein Spectrum Staff Writer Tom Jackson, aptly referred to as the “Job Doctor,” lectured on guerilla tactics necessary in the job market, in the Fillmore room last Wednesday night. His stated purpose was “to help people expand their work satisfaction, and to increase their effectiveness in the job market.” Jackson said his lecture would not be the usual theoretical jargon that in only appears the classroom, but rather something of practical value that could be applied to the job market. has .Jackson extensive experience with the job market from several perspectives, since he is a professional attorney. He offers workshops for frustrated souls who have been in the work world five to twelve years, and are dissatisfied with their lot. This workshop only takes twelve hours and shows people how to get “unstuck” and alter their lifestyle, he indicated. Jackson is also a management for several consultant corporations. He felt his primary function is to teach employers “how to hire.” Enjoy yourself Jackson stressed the concept of learning to enjoy your work, insisting that people cease dividing their life into two parts, before five and after five, and that “we must view work and lifetime as one and the same.” He added that the average person is at work ten thousand days, expending their most energetic and alert hours. “This time should not be spent get home,” to he waiting remarked. This University has several resources, including the Career University the Library and Placement Office, which Jackson claims are helpful if you know how to use them. “Opportunity does not knock,” he warned. “No one will come to your kitchen table and offer you a job.” Jackson formula for The getting hired is learning the overall system, and then showing how you will be of value to them. The way to do this is to first identify what problems exist within the firm you hope to work for, and your potential communicate contributions in these areas. He added that showing that you want the job, or need it, will impede your chances of getting it. Lets take a trip After twenty minutes of learning practical approaches to job getting, the audience closed their eyes, while the “Job Doctor” led them on a journey. The excursion was a helicopter ride around the world. Jackson instructed everyone to decide where they wanted to live and work, and then command the pilot to take them there. After imaginations had reached their limits, the audience returned from the “ideal jobs” to their auditorium. Then, Jackson asked the crowd M \ lr\\ FOR DISCOUNTS OFFERED TO STUDENTS, FACULTY AND STAFF THE STUDENT DIRECTORY what they would ideally chose to do in a year, three years, and five years hence. He requested that they examine which of these jobs were practical possibilities, taking into account what we were willing to do to achieve that status, and to our inate talent. This was used to compile a list of job possibilities that were practical and that would bring us satisfaction, his definition of success. He surprised the audience by charging that it is not the best qualified people who get the best jobs, but rather those who are most skilled in job finding. Tragic college Jackson describes "youth of today as people who know the “payload system” including memorizing notes and exam taking, but have totally ignored the delivery system. He views this as a tragedy, since the “delivery system”is what links you to the jobs which pay the best. A Jackson tip for a job interview is to ask the employer, early in the interview, what is he looking for. Then, follow up the question with behavior that is the to what compatible , employer wants, prospective without making it ridiculously obvious. He assured the audience that this is a highly effective method. Jackson says the interview is essential and must be handled properly.

Page five �Join our side EditPrial Editor’s note: The following is President Robert Ketter. The morning after an open letter to our suppression. Join our side! This University's Amherst Campus was originally conceived as the single largest educational construction project ever undertaken at one time. Its eventual completion, long promised by Albany officials, has' been scaled down and delayed for the better part of a decade. Construction has been at a virtual standstill for 15 months now, and the campus stands 40 percent complete. The freeze on Amherst construction must be lifted soon because the cost in money and confusion of operating a multi-campus University during a prolonged transition is too great to stand, the accelerating cost of construction work diminishes the value of future allocations, and a boost to the local economy is needed. An example of the damage being done is that reductions by Governor Carey in rental funds for the Ridge Lea Campus will require moving departments to an unrehabilitated Main Street Campus. Moreover, arguments for the completion of the Amherst Campus were fortified last week by new information which showed that Stony Brook had been allocated the greater part of its construction funds in the mid 1960's, when the cost of construction was much lower than in the early 1970's, when most of the existing Amherst Campus was built. The discrepancy in real dollars may be such that Stony Brook received almost twice as much for completion of its physical plant as Buffalo was granted for the building of Amherst. During the mid semester break, the Long Island Press and several downstate political leaders, including Assembly Speaker Stanley Steingut, co-operated to mount a regional media and lobbying campaign in favor of finishing the 90 percent complete Stony Brook campus at the expense of the Amherst Campus. A statistic indicating that Long Island generates more SUNY students than Western New York was used to justify the somewhat distorted picture of an overexpanded University of Buffalo. Fighting for public higher education money by regional boosterism is an ugly, unfortunate outcome of the crisis in the state economy. It would be to both Stony Brook and this University's benefit to join forces in convincing Albany of the desperate necessity of completing both campuses, rather than battling for construction dollars at each other's expense. proposals of the G.S.E.U., not against us. We want the members of your administration to devote their salaried efforts to the support of the students, not to We’re the students at SUNYAB, and we’re here for the best education possible. Help us work for the Betsy Meixell pm LINE Meanwhile, there are three areas crucial to the Amherst Campus that may be decided this week. Local bankers may reconsider last week's informal rejection of a guarantee to back $3 million in bonds to finance new construction. Such backing would amount to a critical show of local support on the construction issue. Bank leaders may have been unaware last week that the bonds would have been tied specifically to projects at the Amherst Campus. The Division of the Budget in Albany has failed since 1974 to release some $56.6 million in construction funds already earmarked for completion of five buildings at the Amherst Campus. All five are designed and ready for contracting.'DOB has given no reason for the freeze. Senate and Assembly Committees will be voting on specific projects in the Executive Budget. For reasons already cited, we urge the committee leadership to restore at least some of the more than $27,000,000 in construction projects either eliminated or reduced by the Governor. Standing half built and dormant, most of this University's dreams of a great new campus have faded. The question that remains is whether the University will remain crippled by transition, or whether it will be allowed to face its future at Amherst with the campus it needs to remain a first-rate institution.

On Wednesday, Mar. 16, 1977 our beloved, and rhetorically well-equipped, anonymous Oliver-Goode Fayte spoke out in this place. He spoke too long: quantity may not necessarily be equated with quality. The verbal vanity of that “wishy-washy creep’' was “insouciant,” and it took him too long to miss the crucial points. Apart from my anger, 1 feel pity for that alienated object. But the kind of “hog swill”, “bat guano” and (let me be inventive, too!)-chicken-shit (Ha!) that we were presented with here was too poor a performance to be accepted. Sure, our friend seems to be grown up: he does no longer shout with the dirty crowd. Striking out against the “motley folks” from those disciplines that require the “least discipline”, brandishing the syntax (or does he mean semantics?) of rebellion that started in the profligate English Department, he might well be a member of the “professional” group of aspiring pure scientists who refuse to be called “working class” (see Reporter, Mar. 17, 1977), Apart from this bourgeois elitism, Oliver shows already the well-developed dispositions of a good scientist: he is humble enough to prostrate himself as an apprentice, versed enough to know whose asses are most rewarding to kiss, and conditioned enough to stick to the positivist selection of facts that fits into system (some his people this call reductionalism, some even short-sightedness!). The value-free statement that “nobody of good heart and cheer (like myself) would really wish to debate the GSEU on those points they are impotent to affect anyway” does not show the least insight into the dialectics of what works in which way and WHY. That strikes me, Oliver: you never ask WHY. Why arc we so important (and do not think we do not know ‘who runs the big business of this university)? Why can “half” of the undergraduates in the English Department (a little hit high, don’t you think?) not “write correctly” ( Moreover, it’s too late to teach basic grammar at that level of education~the reasons for these faults do not lie with the TAs in that department, believe me!)? Why is there a threat of another increase in tuition next year (you don’t have to make statements of facts. We know them, Oliver, but we want to know WHY)? Why does Ketter “neither negotiate nor arrange negotiations”? That’s not science, Oliver I knowthat’s politics; but we have to live with it! Why does the salary of $3000 for GAs and TAs not reflect the increase in the cost of living of nearly 7 percent since 1968? ! know, Oliver, that this is a matter of ethics for you. Not only, but also. You are right when you say that quantitative (and sometimes, even qualitative) output of “Professor X (notorious onanist)” is higher than that of grad student F. (By the way, sometimes your humor is really cheering!). You even quote Marx, Oliver (a “professional” slip into “labor”). Very good; but you forget a point in the dialectic: the division of labor. You can see that in the fact that some grad students have to correct up to 40 papers a week midterms finals, while their professoral supervisors make “some commitment to research” or “production” or “commitments.” A fact of which F. has probably conceived long before you ever will. I know, Oliver, that this is a matter of ethics for you, and of scientific standards (apprentice is apprentice!). But they don’t nourish your body. Apart from these standards, can you really survive on $3000 (some 140 TAs and GAs live on even less than that!) in a country that has the moral quality of life of the USA? Another WHY, Oliver. Why is it so difficult to get accurate information about the organizational and financial issues at stake? Good faith, Mr. Goode Fayte,” is too closely connected with a phenomenological conception of reality. If you argue on this basis, YOU are the demagogue. In this case, your verbal firework against the GSEU was just another nice and typical piece of bourgeois ideology. We thank you for the demonstration. In case you want to use your time as an apprentice at this university to learn something else besides purity, you should contact the GSEU and INFORM yourself before you speak out the next time. Fm sure they will accept you as an apprentice in Critical Theory. 1 would like to talk with you, Oliver. But you are not even smart enough to know your own premises, you are a perfect part and product of the system that we fight.

Your report (March 4) on the Special Problems Unit of University Polige tends to mislead, though I suspect it was the men of the Special Problems Unit, not you, who wanted it to turn out that way. Let me briefly try to set things straight. You state that the plainclothes unit “was born on April 19, 1976. ‘The problems we had were getting out of hand so we decided to try a new approach.’ This suggests that there was no official, long-term plainclothes University Police operation on this campus prior to that date. But in fact, as early as February 1975 an undercover detail (of what was then called Campus Security) was deployed in and around the basement men’s rooms of Harriman Library and Crosby Hall, areas which gay males had been using for years, and continue to use, as meeting places. (See The Spectrum, Feb. 19, 21, and 24, 1975, and Ethos, Feb. 13 and 20.) A spokesman for Security said at that time that this detail was “charged with stopping alleged ‘open sexual acts’ by people who were considered to be outsiders to the university” (The Spectrum, Mar, 5, 1975). Gay people and civil libertarians said, and have continued to say, that university cops in plain clothes are engaged in a program of harassment and intimidation, if not downright entrapment, of gay men on campus. (See my articles in Ethos, Sept, and Oct., 1976). There has always been considerable public disagreement as to the plaipclthesmen’s purpose and precise activities, but there has never been any disagreement that early in 1975 a special, detail was assigned to the men’s bathroom areas in Harriman and Crosby, and has been there regularly ever since. Indeed, the Chet Menkiena you describe as “the unit’s newest member” is an old hand—two photographs of him in his gay-baiting outfit, one taken in Harriman basement, appeared on thesensational front page of the Feb. 21, 1975 issue of The Spectrum in which undercover Security activities in Harriman and Crosby were finally exposed. (The other shot of Menkiena shows him alongside Officer Gardner, who is still to be seen—in his same old, not very sexy, ou.tfil—hanging around ... ” Harriman.) • Unfortunately, your story misleads not only about dates. Much worse, by never mentioning their ongoing activities in the bathrooms, it makes the men ■ of the Special Problems Unit (I wonder who thought euphemism) up that look like All-Around-Campus-Good-Guys-costumed crusaders who catch bicycle and purse snatchers, recover and return all sorts of stolen property, have virtually eliminated CB thefts, make “no concentrated narcotics effort,” and have never done anything more questionable than arrest an occasional student for smoking marijuana “right in front” of them. Who could complain? But in fact, in the basements of Harriman Library and Crosby Hall, University cops are continually cruising the men’s rooms in what they must imagine to be homoerptically alluring plain clothes, arresting non-students for simply “loitering,” trying to con students and non-students alike into committing or offering to commit illegal sexual acts they will then be apprehended for, interrogating some of those who are apprehended as to some of their most private feelings, ordering students never to return to certain University buildings (though President Ketter publicly declared, on Feb. 18, 1975, that he is the only person with authority to issue such orders), arresting some students for “soliciting,” threatening others with “arrests downtown” if they refuse to see a shrink (i.e., if they refuse to admit, thereby, that they’re “sick”), and on and on. Undercover cops have been engated in such activity here for over two years. Some of your readers, of course, may feel that it, too, fits the image of Campus-Good-Guy. The majority, I trust, will feel quite the opposite, and that it is high time to put an end to it. Even without arrest, the psychological harm such police intimidation inflicts on gay males, particularly those in the earlier stages is coming out, of immense —indeed, immeasurable—and very cruel. Worse, it is harm inflicted on persons who are harming no one. At best, the Uarriman operation is a waste of time and money that could be spent preventing and apprehending thieves, muggers, and rapists. God knows. University Police is not overstaffed and the SUNYAB campuses are not exactly crime-free. But as Office Jay told your reporter: “The men in our unit are aggressive. We enjoy our work and often put in our own time.” I believe it. Well, if they’re “so keen on hanging around bathrooms,” as a wise graffiti artist suggested a few months ago just above the Harriman urinals, let them "do it at home.” Burton Wem, James T.

The rally, sponsored by the Student of the State Association University (SASU) and the City University Student Senate (USS) culminated the sixth annual SASU Legislative Conference. SASU is a coalition of SUNY student governments, while USS represents the CUNY Student Governments. The conference, which one termed, “the most delegate productive and organized conference yet,” consisted of business sessions, workshops, and meetings with members of the ;New York State Legislature. The conference began Saturday Kwith the regularly scheduled business meeting. At the session, SASU unanimously approved a this backing resolution University’s. Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU). The resolution, sponsored by SASU Vice-President for Campus Affairs Hugor on behalf of Andy Graduate Student Association delegate Zeb Syeb, called for the University to recognize theG.A.’s and T.A.’s as employees. The membership also requested tht SASU keep them informed on the GSEU “struggle.” Matching funds other In the business, preliminary gave approval for SASU to enter into with member its contracts membership schools. The proposal, sponsored Frank President by SASU Jackalone, mandates that before a school can vote in the annual June conference, they must sign a with SASU comitting for the their dues money upcoming year. Last year, four schools pulled out of SASU after voting in the June conference. This action has put SASU in financial trouble, as those schools have not yet paid their dues. also voted in a SASU “matching funds” proposal where any school that sets up a special budget for SASU activities on their campus will be entitled to matching funds. The last item of business that was done was elections to the SASU Executive Newly-elected Committee. Buffalo Delegate Clare Reardon elected to the SASU was Executive Committee, along with Andy Goldstein from Albany. Reardon said she would like to see more schools in SASU and feels “added membership should be a Executive of the priority Committee.” contract Discussions The rest of the weekend featured workshops on the major issues concerning students. The workshops w«re- well-attended and featured Harry Spindler, SUNY Vice-Chancellor for Finance and Business, Chief Budget Examiner, NYS Division of the Budget, Paul Participating in the discussioh were Acting SUNY Chancellor, Assistant Dr, James Kelly, Secretary to the Governor for Education, Hank Dullea, State Senator Donald Halperin, Dr. T. Edward Hollander of the State Education Department, SASU Jackalone, Frank President, Assemblyman Melvin H. Miller and Hank Paley, President of the Independent Commission of Colleges and Universities. The speakers unanimously condemned the Commissions report, citing “the ending of open admission” and “to much interference by the Board of Regents” as reasons for opposing the plan. Jackalone criticized the two university system proposal as “a bad copy of the California System.” Strong support The last two days of the conference were devoted to meetings with members of the New York State Legislature priorities, SASU concerning including reinstatement of Carey’s proposed $40.7 million cut in TAP aid. Most of these cuts will adversely effect SUNY and CUNY students. Joel Packer, SASU Legislative Director, feels that “we have quite a lot of support for TAP now. The major cut, that lowers the maximum TAP award by $100 is where we have our strongest support.” SASU also pushed for an million for $1.2 additional graduate student stipends, and $1 million for libraries, and a bill which would add four students to the Higher Education Services Corporation (HESC). HESC is the corporation which handles all financial aid programs, including Scholarship, «and TAP, Regents loans. SASU has addition, In proposed three bills to make voting easier for students next year. Our bill will allow a simple letter of request to get an absentee ballot, as opposed to the system as it now stands where in order to get an absentee ballot, a form must also be request completed. This two-step process prevented many people from voting last November. Other bills provide for voter registration forms to be available in public places and to provide written explanations of the ballot for those who decriminalization Marijuana was another priority.

Lippes Loop trounced Converse All-Stars 85-64 in a semi-final game on March 16. The Loop was led by guard Paul Pass, who penetrated for 26 points. Jim Randall and Phil Rosenberg chipped ip for 41 points and controlled the backboards. Mark Golubow of the All-Stars put on a show in a losing cause, scoring 27 points with an assortment of twisting drives and long range shots. In the other semi-final match, the Boss Players (5-2) broke open a relatively close game with Latko Printing midway through the second half, when they switched to a three-quarters court press which Latko couldn’t handle. Time and time again, Boss Players’ Ron McGraw and Mike Bridges stole the ball from Latko, leading to a 78-53 win. McGraw scored 29 for the winners, and Brian McCann scored 19 for the Printers. .

In the B league, two contrasting styles will be pitted against each other. Dog Puke likes to run, and if they can run against Law School, they’ll be tough to stop. Law School, on the other hand, uses a patient offense, resembling the old New York Knicks in many ways. They work for open 15 foot shots, and usually make them.

The Union has scheduled a mass meeting for 2 p.m. today in Diefendorf 147 to announce the voting results and choose a course of action. Meanwhile, memos from faculty in the Physics Department were circulated Wednesday to Teaching Assistants, asking them to let the respective faculty know “certainly before 10 a.m. tomorrow (Thursday] if you will be participating in the proposed GSEU strike.” First denying that he had ordered the memos circulated, then claiming that it was done at the direction of the Vice President for Academic Affairs, Chairman Michael Ram asserted that it had been done “purely for informational purposes,” and was not an implied threat, as Union members charge. The GSEU circulated a letter to physics graduate employees declaring that “No one may legally coerce or intimidate your constitutional right to express your views. People who do may be legally ... ... culpable of unfair labor practices.” views. People who do may be legally culpable fo runfair labor practices.” Vice President for Academic Affairs Robert Bunn and his assistant vice presidents were unavailable for comment, but the Association Provost of the Faculty of Arts and Letters, Murray Schwartz agreed that the administration had requested that provosts ascertain what actions were being taken to make sure all class responsibilities are met. He said it was something “Dr. Ketter is legally responsible to do” despite implied threats to teaching assistants’ jobs.

The quota is One Swedish millionaire is Canadian established by governmental agencies. Public awareness of the seals’ plight first occurred in 1964 when a Canadian film team accidentally came upon a killing and recorded it. Canada then set regulations for the method of killing and introduced quotas. Quotas have ranged from 150.000 in 1972 to a reduction to 127.000 by 1976. The herd size is only estimated at 800,000. The bulk of the seals are killed by Canadian and Norwegian ice breakers while the others are killed by “landsmen.” These landsmen were responsible for 70.000 deaths in 1975, exceeding their allotment by 40,000. They are natives of the islands who walk out on the ice or use small boats to club the seals. Their activities are very difficult to regulate.

Bad grades plaguing some student leaders The standard (SASU) collegiate joke about “majoring in student government” isn’t so funny anymore around at least two SUNY campuses. “They haven’t stopped me,” said former Geneseo student and Central Council Chairperson Steve Atlinger after finding himself bounced out of school for low a reflection of the grades tremendous amount of time he was called upon to put into student business but away from his studies. “I’ll get back in here by hook or by crook,” he added. Allinger flunked out. Geneseo college polices require students to finish incomplete grades by the fourth week of the following Ailinger’s semester. six-credit incomplete resulted in a failing 'E grade that'plunged his cumulative average below “the expected level of academic achievement.” The former student leader attributes his misfortune to the demands of his administration’s many projects, which included taking the college to court in order to secure a women’s health clinic and the formation of a student union. Allinger appealed to the administration for reinstatement but was told that “my main job was to get good grades.” He believes that his agressive and popular leadership left him “not with the widely popular administration.” — — Strictly academic College President Robert MacVittie demurred that political activism was a factor in Allinger’s appeal being denied. “Procedures are there and were followed. Steve was a good leader. His situation was strictly academic. I’ve never known a student leader who has done this.” But it does happen, and is becoming more common as student associations move away from their “good kids and clubs” and become origins multi-million-dollar corporations providing essential services in areas unheard of only five years ago.

However, next year, with the expected increase in the number of students requesting housing, those extra beds may be needed. It is unlikely that RAs will be expected to share their rooms with other students, says Gary Soener, Assistant Director of Housing, rather, a change in the factor determining the number of free beds will be requested from SUNY Central, since about 45 percent of all RAs are housed in double rooms with extra beds. Each RA fills out a “bed waiver” which excuses him/her from Resident Advisors (RA) having single occupancy in double rooms may be forced to share them with roommates as a result of a predicted increase in the number of students requesting housing arrangements next year. The increase, which will not only affect the number of students assigned to an RA, will also cause problems with the distribution of extra beds in the rooms of RAs assigned to doubles. SUNY Central officials determine the number of , “free” beds allotted to the housing staff by taking into account the ratio of the number of students compared to the housing RAs. The ratio at this University is one to four, or one “free” bed per every 25 payment, but only one bed waiver per RA is allowed. Esther Katzrhan, an Ellicott RA, offered an alternative solution to the problem, suggesting that Inter-Residence Council (IRC) offices and other rooms allotted to other student aides should be cut back in order to make room for the RAs. “Roommates would hinder our performance and reduce our pay.” Katzman, who says she has a floor of 35 students under her jurisdiction, says that the ratio of students to RAs is already out of proportion, and that it would be more difficult to handle a workload of 50 students or more. “It’s hard enough with 35 to become friendly and people all that ... with 50, it would be almost impossible to do.” Other RAs have expressed their concern ... over having a roommate who would have available access to duty keys,-etc. According Spaulding Quad Complex is not “totally available Soener, to of the Ellicott expected to be for next year’s use.” This, in conjunction with the fact that there are only four single rooms available in the Governors Residence halls (most RAs are housed in double rooms) will make things complicated for next year’s increase.

L -* �UUAB plans more summer activities In contrast to last year’s poor summer programming, there will be summer activities at the University this summer, according to Acting Division Director of University Union Activities Board (UUAB) Jim Brickwedde. Union Board is headed for a profitable year, he added. UUAB is in “much better shape” than it was last year, he claimed, referrring to the financial difficulties it experienced which left Union Board in the red by May. At that time the UUAB Music Committee was responsible for a $9000 debt, never earning its full anticipated income. The Music Committee was also left in the red. As a result, last summer’s program was kept to a minimum. Brickwedde stated there would be a “normal” program for this summer, including three major activities: coffeehouses, literary arts and films. Coffeehouse programs will be scheduled for both the Main and Amherst Campuses. Different programs Literary Arts programs will consist of lectures and poetry readings, while the film program will include two movies per week throughout the summer. Brickwedde explained that scheduling problems still exist. Due to the opening of the Amherst Campus for summer dorm use, and the subsequent closing of all Main Street dorms for alterations, Brickwedde said it will be very difficult to coordinate commuter students on one campus for activities. Chairman of the film committee, Robert Graham agreed that the UUAB summer program is currently in “better shape” than last year. He added “the money has already been set aside." and noted that the film committee has already been allocated S5262. Graham emphatically stated that the money will be carefully spent to avoid repeating past failures. r "You gotta have heart ..Believe it or not, these people are not Broadway's best, but, in fact.

The Spectrum Page five . �Ski Club bureaucracy To the Editor. I would like to share an experience with everyone in the University to expose just what kind of people run student activities. I am a member of Schussmeister Ski Club. I paid $38 for six lessons and eight ski rentals at Holiday Valley in addition to the $40 membership fee. I used only one rental and my lessons had not begun when I unfortunately broke my leg on January 20. I tried to get a refund for the unused rentals and lessons with full understanding that ,the membership was indeed lost. I was told to contact the business manager, Bill Shuler, about a refund. A friend of mine spoke to him and Bill agreed to give me a refund if he could get it from Holiday Valley. We didn’t hear from Bill, so for several weeks we tried desperately to contact him. Messages were left, but he never returned the calls. Finally, in mid-:Februrary, Bill called me and informed me that Holiday Valley would not agree to a refund, but would transfer the rentals and lessons to another member of the ski club. I called Holiday Valley myself and I was told that there would be no problems in getting a refund. As of that time, they had not received payment from the ski club in that they were in the process of figuring out the bill. Therefore, the money was still in the ski club office. When I told Bill Shuler the information I received and asked when 1 would get my refund, he replied, “You’ll get your money when I feel like writing the check,” and immediately hung up the phone. In subsequent calls, Bill would not come to the phone and the office workers hung up on me. The following days, the club office workers would not give me any information nor would they let me speak to anyone about it. Within a few days, I received a nasty registered letter from Bill (costing $2.35 to mail) and it was the last I heard from him. I spoke to the ski club SA representative Mark Poppendeck and he, at least more diplomatic than Bill, informed me that other students have been refunded after an injjury and that I should submit a request to the Board of Directors. I did so, and after waiting two weeks for the board meeting and another week for the response, I received a letter on March 7th which consisted of three sentences and stated that they had a standard policy of no refunds. After one and one-half months, I was told what I should have been told on January 21 when the initial request was made. Instead, I was told by two different representatives that exceptions were made in the past and that it would be possible in this case. I’ve become accustomed to getting “screwed” by the offices and departments in this University, but I did not expect a student organization to be so bureaucratic. 1 do not know if Bill Suler or any of the other ski club officers are students but I do know that the club is not run for students. It is the same as any organization or office of the government. We cannot begin to criticze the government until we prove we can run our own activities properly. Political lies begin in student government and that’s where they have to be Guest Opinion The economic situation on the island has just recently opened up new incentives for the The initiative of President Ford to annex the imperialists interests.

But I'd like a to copy of the tape, though play at parties." Another company accepted the record and began pressing it until the little old ladies who staff the record pressing plant heard the album they were making, and refused outright to produce any more copies. Seven companies rejected the album before brave little Adelphi records, in the interests of preserving the grand tradition of American free speech, released it. (Then again, they could have been yet another by influenced could never executive opinion: "I but, if I did, come out with this million.") it'd sell a What hath provoked this wave of discontent? The reason this record was made was to offend as many people as possible. Patrick Sky is against love, motherhood, America, rock 'n liberation, life, roll, political liberty, the pursuit of happiness, and hiring the handicapped. Except for one time he hired an actor friend of his to dress as a his bring and hunchback instruments onstage, to be chased off by Sky's kicks and curses. Dave Van Ronk on Patrick Sky "Beneath that rough exterior there's a son-of-a-bitch." are - ... — : Gentle clang, harsh truth Patrick Sky started as a traditional folkie with a repertoire of 300 ballads ("most of them were awful"). He eventually branched into blues, banjo tunes, and writing his own songs. None of this is exceptional. His second Vanguard Records Album, A Harvest of Gentle Clang, is: one of the best city-folk albums ever made, in fact. Just before this, his initial Vanguard opus contained two folk standards, "Many A Mile," and "Separation Blues," as well as "Love Will Endure," as sad and lovely a love song as I've ever heard: And as for you, your heal tears will Just as time dears the fields Of the flowers that have ripened And, of all these things, you can be sure Only love will endure. for By the time of his two albums Verve (Photographs and Reality Is Bad Enough), some of Sky's writing was much closer to "legitimate" poetry than folksong lyrics. Wilfrid Owen, the World War I poet, or E.E. Cummings, could have written "Jimmy Clay:" So you died a soldier and a hero's death Congratulations, Jimmy Clay You can smoke your cigar and earn your pay And somewhere in the distance You can hear the fiddle play But not one note will change, Jimmy Clay. engaged in a personal hunt for his hide.

Get yourself a lawyer never filled Vanguard thousands of orders for his records. Verve wasn't sure what to do with an ostensible folkie who was writing songs that were closer to Brecht than Bob Dylan. Managers euchered him out of thousands of dollars. None of this is exceptional, either, in the music world. Sky always had a jaundiced sense of humor. As far back as Harvest he took on charities; "Give to the cause/'Cause I am broke." He had a following in folk circles, he was influential in he record company ones people contracts for manuevered he felt had talent, like the British folk trio The Young Tradition and Paul singer/songwriter blues was bitter from Geremia.

"Yonkers Girl" sounds like a synopsis of the last five like minutes of "Taxi Driver" two-thirds of most American ballads. The high point, for me, is NYC deejay Alex Bennet's interview with old blues singer Blind Funk Earwax ("who we just discovered our studio pushing outside pencils"): "Leadbelly, Robert Johnson, I taught all those blues." His 78 hit was guys the Molesting "Baby, Blues" "Child baby fast is where baby, baby . . it's at."

The crowd generates such energetic excitement that I can hear only the static of anticipation within Shea's Buffalo Theater. James Cotton steps onto the stage with a shadowed backup band to embark harmonic on some kick-ass majestic hall boogie, and the Long "How shakes with the blues. Can a Fool Go Wrong" is joined in progress by a lean white figure wearing a cowboy hat and bearing a guitar. Johnny Winter plugs in and lets loose with some of his long, piercing blues riffs, admist a surge of joy from the audience. A pungent marijuana clould rises heavily into the air as Cotton launches "Rocket 88," lamenting his blues with voice and harp on the way The spotlight now shifts to Winter, on the opposite end of the stage, for a slow blues number. His guitar rants and raves with long, stinging cries, complemented by the emotional bangigs of Joe "Pinetop" Perkings on piano. Cotton plays harmonica like it's an extension of his vocal chords, while Winter sneaks back up from behind with some raunchy slide guitar playing. The guitarist cranks out a hard-paced' "Walkin' by Myself" before yielding the spotlight back to Cotton. "Creeper Creeps Again" is pure Cotton, driven forward by the pulsating applause of the audience as he demonstrates in detail what he can do with a harmonica. In front of a boogie background. Winter introduces the members of Bob Margolin on the band guitar, Joe "Pinetop" Perkins, playing piano, Willie Smith on drums, (all from Muddy Waters' band,) and Charles Calmese on bass, from the James Cotton Blues Band. This band, including Winter and Cotton, is the sarhe one that backed Muddy Waters on his new album. Hard Again, on Blue Sky — Records.

The Last Tycoon is no exception. I will admit it is unfair to judge such movies in terms of the original; they sould be judged purely on their own merits. However, when I find a mediocre film being-derived from an excellent book, it is very tempting to try to decide where the transition went awry. Giving in to temptation, and admitting that 1 am being totally unfair, I will attempt to do this. The novel The Last Tycoon was left unfinished by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The one-hundred-fifty pages which had been completed by the time of his death in 1940 constituted about one half of what the final product was to have been. It is the story of Monroe Stahr, a thirty-five year old producer, a former "Boy Wonder" who has risen to a powerful position in his movie company. This character was drawn directly from its real life counterpart, Irving Thalberg of MGM. enjoy Off-center The movie centers its attention upon the swift and abortive love affair between Stahr and a Hollywood outsider, Kathleen Moore. It is upon this point that screenplay writer Harold Pinter diverges from the original. This incident occupies about one third of the novel. Within the context of what Fitzgerald had written, and in terms of his intentions for the remainder of the book as revealed by his notes, this romance apparently does not play a central role. Rather it is written as one more piece to fit into the mosaic of Stahr's character and life in Hollywood. In the Pinter version, as expressed by director Elia Kazan, this relationship becomes an end in itself. Pinter further alters the novel by throwing a touch of Tender Is the Night's Dick Diver into Stahr. The film has Stahr's love leading him down a path of degeneration. Stahr doesn't pay full attention to his work, he is no longer in command of all situations and finally goes on an unprecedented drinking spree, insults a Writer's Union representative and gets sent on an open ended vacation by the other movie company executives. Altered to misfit This is pure fabrication on Mr. Pinter's part. The way Fitzgerald wrote it, Stahr is affected by his short-circuited love but he didn’t go downhill. He does get uncharacteristically drunk once, but in the presence of an unimportant Communist who Stahr had arranged to see for his own amusement. Stahr doesn't get shipped out, he stays around for a corporate battle with a company rival. This last part was never written, but it is the way Fitzgerald planned to complete the story. The simple act of alteration is not what I’m faulting. The difficulty is that the love affair alone is not strong enough to bear the plot burden of the movie. In fact, this is the principle defect of the written version. Only the novel, however, can be excused from this shortcoming. It probably was a foolish idea to try to film The Last Tycoon. Not only is there not a complete story to work with, but there are few sets which can do justice to Fitzgerald's settings and few actors who can portray his finely drawn teharacterizations. It would be difficult, even for Robert DiNiro to play Stahr who had flown up :very high to see, on strong wings, when he was young. And while he was up there he had looked on all the kingdoms, with the kind eyes that can stare straight into the sun.

The Ramones and the Dictators. Yes, after much critical appraisal around the country, this vehicle of punk rock has finally made the journey to Buffalo. The March 25 spectacular at Buffalo State College will not only brainwash many ripe spirits as it transcends many of rock and roll's 70's norms, but will also give this fair Queen City a desperately needed and energy riddled shakedown.

So marks the official inception of this New York phenomenon. Not to slight Television which is a fantastic poetic conception, Harvey and Corky received the group on an economical rebound. Nowhere in the transaction was there any evidence of sensitivity or concern shown for this new musical force that had been generating in the SoHo District of N.V.C. (Let us now praise the famous men and women that first dared the subway ride to C.B.G.B.'s.) In short, the concert was not carried out in a manner of body and soul that ideally suited their art. Originally, it was the intent of Buff State's Union Board to book Television. The reputation of Moot Hall has always been that of a great spot a concert, both in terms of sound quality and comfort. It will not steralize the atmosphere as would the Century. There will also be drink for all you alchos. So, let's do it right. New York rock is in an expansive state. If you haven't heard the music, I urge you to explore by attending this concert. It'll be more than a Blitzkrieg Bop, it'll be a fucking rock and roll revival.

Needless to say, the public was ecstatic, especially those who were heavily into the British scene. Here was Robert Fripp, the wizard guitarist and creative force behind King Crimson, who disbanded Crimson in 1974 in anticipation of what he foresaw as "a decade of considerable panic in the 1990's collapse on a colossal scale the complete breakdown of social, politicial and economic order." Since then had been working on creating "a new stands out the most, as all other guitar soloing is kind of guitar technique that works on three levels: divided between the competency of Steve Hunter heart, hands, and head," to aid the hopelessly and Dick Wagner, both also ex-Alice Cooper/Lou inadequate rock musician, who is "rooted to the Reed back-up men. earth." Add to this one Mr. Gabriel who, since the The amazing thing about the Gabriel album is split with Genesis had been absorbing everything not so much its inconceivable mixture of styles, but from piano lessons to attempts at levitation and rather the notion that Gabriel has never incorporated telepathy, as well as expressing an interest in the the majority of these influences in his music before. 1990’s as a time of global conflict.

A couple of years ago, Capitol Records decided to repackage and rerelease a bunch of old Beach Boys tapes which had been gathering dust in their vaults (or wherever one keeps old tapes). The result: a number one bestselling album and a nostalgia boom among a generation which probably was still in diapers when those songs first made the charts. Capitol soon duplicated its success with a Beatles greatest hits package (they haven't tried the Kingston Trio yet), paving the way for similar releases by other record companies. The main problem with the early sixties was that, with the possible exception of the Beach Boys, no one singer or group really dominated that musical era. But there was one person whose influence did permeate that period of time: Phil Spector. Phil Spector's Greatest Hits is seemingly more justified as a representative sampling of the early sixties music than any of the other three titles mentioned previously, which were primarily money-making efforts. The idea of having production, rather than group identity, as the unifying variable is intriguing, to say the least. Production has always been a nebulous term, encompassing parts of engineering along with assisting in the arrangement and performance of the song itself. This allows for a great variety of music without any loss of consistency or continuity, for the production is always holding it together. The previously mentioned facelessness of the era indicates another justification for the album. As Ken Barnes writes in the liner notes: "When people talk about 'He's A Rebel,' or 'Be My Baby,' 'Then He Kissed Me,' and 'Walking in the Rain,' very often they can't remember whether the Ronesttes or the Crystals recorded them, or the name of the group slips their minds entirely." Thus, the many different artists present supply a much greater impact than, say, a Righteous Brothers or Crystals greatest hits collection. Initially, the listener will most likely be attracted to side one of this two album set, mainly because it contains most of the Spector classics, such as "Be My Baby," "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" and "Baby I Love You." These cuts demonstrate the techniques that made Spector famous: the impenetrable "wall of sound," the liberal use of echo chambers and, on occasion, the lush orchestral arrangements. "Baby I Love You" is a good example; with its dense background almost eclipsing the lead vocals, it is as overdone and bombastic as any Wagnerian opera. Yet, while Wagner is almost definitely an acquired taste, "Baby I Love You" is immediately likeable because so much is packed into a song less than three minutes in length. An essential part of the Spector sound is the homogeneity of the instrumental background; very rarely is an individual guitar or piano solo heard on the album. The only exception to this is the drumming, which is allowed even more freedom than the vocals. The drums keep a steady, heavy beat throughout the song, but break from this beat between verses, between lines at almost every chance they get. It s an interesting technique, one that more contemporary producers and arrangers should employ. the Phi! Specter's Greatest Hits offers an excellent cross-section of doubtlessly work of a great producer, even though every listener will find a few of his/her favorites missing. Also, noticeably absent are examples of Specter's later and present efforts (the most recent song on this album was recorded in 1969), but it is unlikely that Capitol and other record companies would allow any of their material (i.e. s own something from AH Things Must Pass) to appear on Spector attention, label. It is the older recordings, however, that merit the most a good and this greatest hits collection allows the record buying public opportunity to re-examine them, as well as a small slice of the early -Eugene Zielinski ' sixties in general. ... r^tTuAB^HLJJTpRKENTSr™^ 5 NORTON CONFERENCE THEATER j S S INTERNATIONAL FILM WEEK March 17-23 i Fri.

Page thirteen i A �RECORDS Kenny Rankin, The Kenny Rankin Album (Little David) Occasionally an artist appears who manages to keep out of the $1.99 rack with only a regional or college following. Aztec Two-Step is a good example of this phenomenon. Originating from Connecticut, the duo has built a substantial club and college audience with FM hits like "Dean Moriarty (On The Road)," and "Cosmos Lady." Their clear acoustic guitar work and well-matched harmonies have given them wide appeal among students. Kenny Rankin was also once of this suit. His covers of Beatle songs were widely recognized, as was his several-octave voice range. He had a bluesy, jazz-tinged delivery, and was also an accomplished scat-singer. But now all this has changed. Don Costa has been brought in to arrange and conduct, and the result is something which might be suitable for playing in a dentist's office. Rankin's voice is as good as ever; that is, if you can hear it through a dense collection of strings and basses. On "Silver Morining," Rankin's voice soared above all instruments. On this, Rankin is content to have it hover arpund his mid-range, and leaves the highs and lows to the orchestra. As this album is not supposed to be an "easy listening" choice, the result is quite unstimulating. Almost all of Rankin's own contributions are drowned in a flood, no, torrent of muzak. As for the covers, well, they're the kind where you get annoyed that someone couldn't leave a perfectly good song alone. For example, how long has it been since you last heard ''Groovin'" by the Young Rascals? Years, right? Then you see it on this album. Wow, excellent flip it right onto that Dual 1249, throw the cue, and What IS this? Where's that great harp accent to Felix Caviliere's sweet white sould vocals? This is mush. Joe Cocker's recording of "You Are So Beautiful" worked because of its raw emotional delivery. All potential power in this one again is stifled by that somnambulic string section. You problably don't want to know what Rankin did with "While My Guitar Gently Weeps." The only cut that does use the strings, instead of vice versa, is Rankin's own "Through the Eye of the Eagle." If the rest of the album had been in Rankin's usual style, it would have been a great closing track. It is the last cut here, but it loses its essence among the other numbers. According to the liner notes, Rankin has been wanted to record with Costa for fifteen years. I'm glad he waited this long he never would have gotten even the parochial recognition he has now. And hopefully, he has gotten Costa out of his system. If this were the start of a trend, it would be very disappointing. The market he worked so hard to capture would be lost quite quickly. -Barbara Komansky *- - - Miles Davis, Water Babies (Columbia) Opening Water Babies, a Shorter composition, yet still taller than some in form. Eloquence is in order; various traces of "Filles de Kilimanjaro" can be heard fading in and out. Miles' sound has touches of overwhelming tonalized control tone, in that the line of communication is never broken. Tony Williams cymbals act as Mr. Davis' shadow throughout. Shorter's use of paraphernalia, with "Miyako" quality was "Speaking No Evil," a folklore impression. Wayne's octave fantasies still have that pulsation of ambiguity which only he can explore. Hancock's solo is halfway between Hector Villa Lobo's neoclassical and Debussy (chromatic impression) "Capricron" swing on a Ronald Carter tide. Glissando interaction, Davis in action, Tony rerooting horizontal speech; just ask Miles. Throbbing incandescence tunes up Wayne's internal spirit until he enlightens his cosmic travel. Hancock, again just in the swing of things. On "Sweet Pea," Wayne Shorter's intro can only be attributable to magic supreme control. Davis marches to the foreground, just ask Tony Williams. Neo-"Sketches of Spain" departing from Davis, Wayne follows, interweaving a fanfare of Soledad-loneliness. The soul of the Flamencan music was characterized by Ronald Carter's bass pointing the way. Saete "the arrow of song" in Flamencan music. "Two Faced," chemical element, Wayne's "ESP." High elastic-colorized rock/jazz element, that of a rhumba, "NEW Rhumba." Williams' outdoor symbolism cymbal is very good. (Outdoor in that there is closeness but also airy openness.) Williams has craftmanship and imagination, like that of Elvin Jones in that it's hard to play cymbals well. Wayne's alto colorized tenor is thick yet cross-graphical summation, superimposed fascination with vocalization. The harmony is numerically impressive. "Two Faced" is sarcastic, although a Jetson commentary, visualized artistically very well. The melody is narrative in scope. "Dual Mr. Tillman Anthony" is by W. Process, with all other composition done by Shorter. A carnival side show piece. Humor is the by-product here again, the blues of the midway. William's is again typing out pulsations of geometrical mova outbursts, acting the strong man on the animated midway show, "a shorterdavis" prqduction. Electric piano are changed to a solid i.e. physics. Luminosity form, Wayne gets his laughter going immediately: highly magnified blued choral speaking. The electric piano's analogy is one of sometimes "text" playing, other times "verse" hymn. Davis and Shorter are babies that love to play in sonic water.

' To the Editor. This letter is directed to the article entitled Blue Bird Wheels. The IRC Bussing Committee, that the Staff Writer reviewed, was held on Thursday, 2/24. This meeting, which I participated in, lasted for approximately four hours. I, as did the other three, committee members, came prepared with questions directed specifically to Mr. Frieday. In my opinion the private time put into this meeting entitled us to be mentioned by name if not quoting our more important suggestions. Just saying, “The bussing committee comprised wholly of four bus-riding members” isn’t enough. It would have been proper, instead of quoting two Juniors and One Sophomore (who were never once mentioned in our meeting) to quote one of us at the meeting. Why did you ask us to properly spell our names if you weren’t intending to use them in your article? I realize I’m not all-knowledgeable in the ways of journalism, but 1 feel an injustice has been - — A student in the Legal Aid Clinic told me Wednesday afternoon that yes, indeed, the petition to hold a referendum in order to create a student government for course credit is a legal document. I’m not surprised as I consulted with a couple of lawyers about that very aspect before the petition was even circulated. The next hurdle is validating the signatures. A few of the signatures won’t be valid because the student put their ID number or telephone number instead of their social security number on the sheet and the petitioner didn’t notice. And one of the sheets had on the bottom of the left column the signatures John Dean and John Erlichman. Their signatures are invalid because they aren’t students here. So the question I have that nobody seems able to answer is how many signatures amounts to 10% of the undergraduates. How many undergrads are actually registered. Elections and Credentials doesn’t know. The E & C Chairperson Gloria Gurber doesn’t know. She called the Bursar’s office in front of me and they couldn’t or wouldn’t say. Fact is, more than 2,000 students signed the document already and this is the first time in more than 7 years at this University, once a hot bed of the revolution, that students have signed a petition that was not provided or approved by their SA government i But we\handed in less than 2000 signatures (12(1250 . .more coming) because during the SA electi n campaign, full signed sheets disappeared from the Record Co-op and a student who shall go unnamed took it upon himself to clean out the closed desk drawers in the upstairs offices of Tolstoy College on Winspear and destroyed 550 signatures . (11 signed sheets). J guess the justification for that was a sign on the wall that said ‘keep the place clean.’ In the meantime, your constitution states a referendum shall be held within 3 weeks from when the petitions are handed over to the president of SA. The idea behind the 3-week limitation is one week to evaluate two weeks to prepare. The petitions were given to former president Schwartz on Friday, March 11 in order to stay within the 3-week frame, and hold this referendum at a fair and equitable time, March 28, 29, 30, Mon., Tues., Wed. of the last week of school seems fair to . committed. ' addition In to stating major bussing problems and official statistics (which is O.K.) you deleted an important part of the meeting. All the readers think the committee meets, gripes and then leaves. This isn’t the case. We proposed solutions (and you yourself gave some good suggestions) to almost every problem brought up. A major solution was Student-Driver Courtesy. It goes as follows: a) To relieve overcrowding, if possible, take a bus earlier than 15 minutes before the class begins, b) When entering the bus try to move all the way back. This way when the driver sees a full bus, he/she can take off sooner, c) If a student is going to O’Brian from Governors, to relieve overcrowding, please take the 6 (Ridge Lea) so the 2 and 2G can take a full load to Main Street instead of half the bus emptying out at O’Brian. I would just like to point out, this may seem like a personal gripe to the writer, but it isn’t. It is a general plea for just recognition in Spectrum articles. I don’t wish to make enemies of The Spectrum or their writers. I have written this letter on my own (speaking for myself),>but I am sure the other three committee members share my sentiments. Thank you for covering the meeting, and writing it up. I hope this matter won’t happen agajn. — Name Withheld \ To the Editor. unfair Housing’s proposed limit on the size of refrigerators is absurd. As far as conserving energy is concerned, one large refrigerator serving many students consumes less energy than many small ones. They should be made aware that students use refrigerators this way. If housing were really concerned about conserving energy, why are so many lights kept on all night on campus? Ellicott is a prime example of this unnecessary energy consumption. If housing is concerned about the size of refrigerators and the difficulty in moving them, then they would have to ban all objects larger than a breadbox, just to be consistent. There is no clear reason for this limit. A large refrigerator is often less dangerous than a stereo or a lamp. Are they going to take those away from us as well? We should not allow housing to further infringe upon our rights. After all, WE pay them to allow us to live in our rooms as we please. Dan Gustafson Books taken unfairly To the Editor. As a UB student living on a tight budget, 1 take every opportunity to lower my overall cost of higher education. In following this principle, I decided to take advantage of the School Book Exchange. Believing this exchange to be a fair representation of the school, I took it in good faith to leave fifty-one dollars worth of valuable books in their hands for resale. I was told that the books were to be sold at my given price or returned to me if unsold. The receipts I received in lieu of these books had no deadline indicated for the money and/or unsold books to be reclaimed. When I returned for my unsold books on Monday 2/14/77 (after the blizzard), I was told that these books were no longer mine because I missed the deadline. It seems that the Book Exchange’s deadline was the previous Friday and my books were now in the possession of the Browsing Library. Upon inquiring at the Browsing Library, I was told that no excuse would be accepted for my missing the deadline. 1 believe that since no date was indicated on the receipt, I was justifiably correct in demanding the return of my books. Is this anyway to run a program to benefit the student? Heidi M. Nees Upon Request - us. However, you might want to delay and claim that we are short signatures or say three weeks from the day the last of the petition sheets are handed in, or whatever. In any case, the will of your constitutents is to vote on the issue and the students are legally entitled to that opportunity. My own “deep throat” in Norton Union tells me it is the old S.A. executive now out of office that schemes to disqualify the whole thing because 1 was the guy who walked into Schwartz’s office and gave over the sheets instead of a registered student. I would like to point out that my name does not appear on that document. I am only its author, and the fact that I am not a registered student this semester is not relevant. It is to you new people, who haven’t even moved into the offices yet, that I address this. What I would like to do, is meet with you, in closed or open executive session, in order to answer all of your questions so that you, in the spirit of the thousands that have signed this document, can save everybody trouble and struggle and vote to have the referendum. Many students have asked me when, so they can make posters for their quads, dorms, classes and buildings. What you don’t realize is that this is a movement of the people here. I am only their spokesman in the forefront. The symbol of your organization looked at sideways or upside down or even rightside up is a bunch of lines running in all directions at cross purposes. The structural analysis that I am preparing for this whole University based on this petition will be printed, I imagine, by The Spectrum and the Reporter both. Let’s get together.

For the Dents, it was both their second consecutive undefeated' season and intramural Jhird championship. Ambis, who played varisty hockey at Cornell, scored all three goals for the Denta. In addition, he prevented the Bunnies from mounting a comeback in the final period as he got several breakaways or semi-breakaways to keep the Bunnies occupied defensively. “We had a little something special for them,” Ambis said of the Dents strategy. “Usually, the other team keys on me or Bruce (Schwartz), so 1 was shuffled between center and defense. We’ve been hurt in the past when they’ve double-teamed our center.” who drilled the puck past the Dents’ goalie Jerry Wieczkowski. But the tie didn’t last long. Ambis received a pass at center ice and skated around defenseman Scott Pellet, in on Bunnies’ goalie Larry Amoros, and slipped the puck between Amoros’ lees; Ambis got the Cents’ final goal barely one minute into the third period, again on a semi-breakaway. This slapshot from ten feet out hit Amoros’ right skate and caromed into the net. The Dents’ star also gave credit to the team’s gaolie Wieczkowski, who stopped 14 shots. “In the first few minutes, their big guy in green (Dave Todd) had a breakaway and Jerry stopped him cold,” Ambis said. “That really got us psyched up.” Bunnies’ goalie Amoros also kept his team in the game, as he stopped 18 shots, including several breakaways. In the “B” League playoffs, Pharmacy defeated Flying Porpoises 2-0 in a semi-final game. In the Successful strategy Apparently that strategy worked. About four and a half minutes into the game, Ambis found himself alone with the puck in the Bunnies’ zone. He skated in and fired’ into the right corner of the net for the first goal of the game. The Bunnies tied the game early in the second period when Pete Vlad fed teammate Dave Wertz, other semi-final, Jawortniks Mark Boch scored with just nine seconds left in overtime to defeat Bertie Bay 2-1.

Buffalo center Sam Pellom finished the season with 1027 points, good for fourth place on the all-time Buffalo scoring list, but in other respects, it wasn’t a particularly outstanding year for the b’SVi” junior. Actually it was a good year for Pellom, but when compared to his sophomore year, in which Pellom led the nation in rebounding, led the Bulls in scoring and shot 50 percent from the floor, it didn’t look like such a good year. Pellom’s goal at the start of the year was to retain his rebounding title, but when forwards ,Sam Robinson and Larry Jones got hurt, Buffalo coach Leo Richardson 'moved Pellom to a more of a forward position, to take advantage of his shooting Team captain Pellom also was the team captain, which entails certain leadership duties. He first learned of his new duties when he returned to Buffalo in September. ”1 knew what a captain had to do try to lead your team.” Pellom accepted his duties got some willingly, but help from senior unexpected — guard George Cooper, who became an unofficial captain. “I didn’t mind,” said Sam. “George did some things that he liked to do, and I did some things I liked ability. to £>eoo/u> I dm;, Oioi*Q tfe Z uo. experience asan apprentice to a distinguished New York professional In the four semesters in which the Arts Apprenticeships program has been offered, students from 20 stales, the District of Columbia, and two foreign countries have served as apprentices to outstanding New York artists Students from over forty colleges have enrolled in this exciting program, among them Boston University, Colorado.

He had been a forward in high school, and was familiar with the position, although rusty. “It was kind of hard to adjust at first,” Sam said. “I had to work on my outside shots and my moves, but after a few games I liked it.” With an increased number of outside shots, Pellom’s shooting percent dropped slightly this year, as did his scoring average, but he still finished with 13.6 points per game, second on the team. Another of Pellom’s goals was to have a winning season, but the Bulls final record was 5-21. “Most of the problem was us,” he said. “We knew what each individual could do. We were depending on certain people to do certain things. We should have been doing things as a team. “Playing all those tough teams at the start of the schedule corrupts your confidence,” he continued. “If you play some easy teams at the start of the season, it sets your confidence.” Buffalo started the year 1-2 and then ran into national powerhouses like Holy Cross, Clemson, Georgia and Detroit. Buffalo could come no closer than 29 points against any of those teams. Pellom remembers the game at Holy Cross because he felt he played well and the crowd gave him a nice hand when he fouled out. But Pellom remembers best the game against another national power, Syracuse, because Buffalo three at halftime. by led “Everybody was up for them,” he said. “We went out and showed Natural' 4 to do. But I wouldn’t mind remaining captain.” As he looks ahead to next year, Pellom realizes that winning isn’t going to come any easier, since five seniors will be gone. “It’s going to be just that much more work for all of us. And the rebounding is going to be left almost entirely up to me.” Pellom already has set his sights for next year. For example, he is hoping for a winning season. He wants to become Buffalo’s all-time leading rebounder, and he needs less than 200 rebounds to do that, if he keeps going at the pace he has set the past three years, only an injury could stop him. He would also like to move up on the list of Buffalo’s all-time top scorers. “If I make second or third, that would be suitable enough for me,” Pellom said. He needs 39 points to move into third and 261 points to move into second. First place, however, is definitely out of reach. He would have to average 31 points per game, which isn’t impossible, but Big Sam has never scored more than 28 in a college game yet.

Page seventeen �Institution to review the art Rugby Club offers an of non-violent peacemaking alternative to football by Bill O'Brian Special to The Spectrum Today there are five major military academies in the United States which instruct human beings in the art of war. The National Peace Academy Campaign (N—PAC) is attempting to gain support for the establishment of one national level educational institution which will instruct people in peacemaking by non-violent methods. In 1975 Senators Mark Hatfield (R., Ore.) and Jennings Randolph (D., W.Va.) introducted a bill calling for such an academy before the U.S. Senate. Former Representative Andrew Young of Georgia, now the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, placed a similar bill before the House this past January. Hearings before a Senate subcommittee are currently underway to decide the feasibility of forming a one-year peace academy student commission. Sen. Clairborne Pell (D., R.I.), Committee Chairman, is confident the commission will be approved. N—PAC staff member Gary Barcza expects work from Washington concerning the funding and location of the study commission, not the academy itself, by June. Non-violent resolution The idea of creating a peace academy to balance West Point, Annapolis and the Air Force, Coast Guard and Merchant Marine academies is not new. Such famous Americans as George Washington, Benjamin Rush, Martin Luther King and recent presidents Franklin Roosevelt, Dwight Tiisenhower and John Kennedy have indicated the need for the institutionalized study of peace. In all there have been 140 pieces of legislation advocating peace study submitted to Congress since 1935, according to N—PAC national coordinator William Spencer. None of these prior bills have reached the hearing stage. N—PAC is a non-partisan, non-profit group campaigning in many areas of the country for the George Washington Peace Academy, a graduate school to train students, approximately 500 men and women, in the non-violent resolution of local, national an;international conflicts, according to Spencer. Fed up Young and Bryant Wedge are co-chairpersons of N—PAC’s steering and advisory committee. Wedge, a 54-year-old psychiatrist from Alexandria, Va. who has served as a peace mediator in the Arab-Israeli and Northern Ireland conflict situations, said, “1 am fed up with the way the world works.” Wedge believes a significant number of American people are willing to use non-violent change, but sees the lack of a working base as detrimental to peaceful mediation. “The process of non-violent conflict solution is known, but there is no institution,” he said the major reason • Wedge believes fjor unsuccessful legislation in the past is' ‘‘there is no money in peace. Lockheed doesn’t get paid for making peace, they get paid for making weapons. Nobody gets paid for peace.” Wedge said one of the economically practical effects of the academy’s establishment would be “a great cost-reduction in terms of dotnestic police protection.” When conflicts arise, graduates of the academy could intervene without weapons using non-violent methods, thus averting the need for military troops and avoiding the possibilty of future Atticas, Kent States and Wounded Knees, according to Wedge. Practical application Wedge noted there are four hundred thousand designated federal arbitrators across the country today, mostly lawyers with one week of training in non-violent tactics. He is skeptical of their training and ability to solve conflicts. Neil Katz, a steering comipittee member and director of the Non-Violent Conflict and Change program at Syracuse University, said on a day-to-day basis the widespread education of non-violence in struggles can lead to citizen policing of neighborhoods. Similar local level programs involving neither weapons nor physical force have been enacted by the people of West Philadelphia and in parts of Georgia. These programs have cut police costs in half, according to Katz! On the international level, non-Violence resistance like that used by the Czechoslovakians during the Russian invasion of 1968 could be employed to avoid war. It would cost money to train people, Katz said, but the military hardware cost would be nil. Wedge was careful to distinguish between his (and N—PAC’s) concept of peace and the waiting-for-the-next-war-peace which has dominated non-war times in the U.S. “That’s not it, what we’re looking for is a just peace, justice,” he said. Congress has to answer several specific questions regarding the exact purpose, size, location,.cost and relationship with the federal government of the proposed academy. A major concern of supporters of a socially-just peace is that, once established, the peace academy not be co-opted by agencies like the CIA. The campaign is looking for input from local peace groups. Anyone interested in finding out more should write N-PAC, 1629 K St., Washington, D.C. 20006 or the Senate Subcommittee, c/o Sen. Pell, Senate Office Building, Washington 20510. The peace academy is apparently a well-organized offshoot of the peace movement of the ’60s, “We’re not trying to knock down the Pentagon,” Wedge said. “The Pentagon will wither away when there are better alternatives.” Jew!

Friday, 18 March 1977 (212)735-0200 by Harvey Shapiro Spectrum Staff Writer You think football is tough? How about hockey? Well, the rugby club, playing possibly the toughest sport played on campus, opens their season Saturday, when it meets Brockport and Oswego. Rugby is one of the toughest and roughest sports around. Although it resembles football in some ways, and soccer in others, rugby is a game all its own. For those who believe that football is one of the toughest sports, take this into account: rugby is composed of 15 players who are on the field constantly. There are no substitutions. If there is an injury, then the injured man plays hurt or the team plays one man short. If you think hockey is tough because of the hitting, take this into account; rugby has just as much hitting and no equipment is allowed. According to coach Jack Karsney, “No protective equipment is allowed at all, and that includes padding or helmets. The only equipment allowed is a mouthpiece to keep one’s teeth in.” True rugby The rules of the game also make it tough. “There are two 40 minute halves,” said Karsney, “and it is non-stop. There are no such 1 things as timeouts in Union rugby.” Karsney thinks professional rugby is not true rugby. “It is a bastardized version,” he emphasized. “Perhaps you have seen it on TV, well Union rugby is different. Professional rugby contains some elements of American football. Union does not.” Rugby scoring is different from American football. For example, in American football a touchdown is scored when the ball crosses the goal line. In rugby, the points are not counted until the ball is touched down. There is also no rule to stop the other team from picking a player up and throwing him back before he can tough the ball down. A team receives four points for a touchdown and a try for an extra two by placekicking or punting the ball through the crossbars. Penalty kicks count for three points and are successful in the same manner as extra points. No forward passing However, scoring is not very easy. The rules on advancing the ball severely limit how a team can score. The ball can oply be passed laterally or backwards. A forward pass results in a penalty. Last fall was the rugby club’s first semester of existence and they finished with a 1-2 record. This semester there are eight games scheduled. “But more’importantly,” said Karsney, “we are members of the Upstate Rugby Union. The Union is comprised of all the New York collegiate teams from here to Albany. Being part of the Union means we are eligible to compete in the Upstate tourney on April 30th.” Another dimension of rugby is the fact that there are two games played, an “A” game and a “B” game. The rugby club still needs players. If you are interested in playing, contact Karsney at 831-3800, or come down to the practices.

O’Meal said that another Fredonia student heavily involved with last spring’s campus actions against budget cuts and local policies “received a letter that said they [the administration] felt he would be better off somewhere else.” “I have not seen such a letter,” College President Dallas Beal said, noting that the student “was here, he was omnipresent during a time of difficulty, and then he disappeared.” Another Geneseo student who was instrumental in the formation of the controversial Free Student Union there is no longer a student, much to his surprise in January. Student leaders take very the possiblity that seriously administrators campus take advantage of their academic vulberability. Suggestions have been made to introduce course credit for student government work, but little progress has been made toward realizing this. in student government does not warrant credit. Credit should be earned in a directed study by a professor with perhaps a paper to write on the subject.” Potsdam student government president John Duggan said that attempts at reform here have not been very successful. “We tried to get a year-to-year vehicle to receive credit, but the Political Science Department opposed it. Several students are getting credit for their student government work, but that is because of friendly professors and not the administration.” Geneseo College President MacVittie and his staff apparently have the last word at the present time in the subject of academic mercy for student administrators who are people often putting more time at their desks than do many college administrators. “I don’t think the credit question is fair. I know it takes a lot of time,” said MacVittie. Administrator Salters concluded that it “would be very difficult to approve. Not that student government activities are not important, but they do not warrant credit.” - �CLASSIFIED OWN ROOM in house near dampus, 65 nice place. 834-3961. +, OWN ROOM in 3-bedroom flat. 3 blocks to U.B. $42 Male grad pref. 835-9658. +.

With the fall of 1976 came two new supervising editors, Jack Bayerl and Yoly Mullen, and Ethos once again underwent a transformation. philosophical According to Haynie, “Jack and Yoly wanted Ethos to be experimental.

They had other plans. It soon became apparent that they had tossed everyone out but Mayo and Joe Ftancavilla, a regular Ethos columnist. No clear explanation was given for the move, and when pressed for reasons by a former contributor, Bayerl reportedly Countered by demanding his credentials. %. in those days was the exclusive and politically radical voice on campus.

The five member commission, appointed by Governor Hugh Carey last summer to study the future of post-secondary higher education in New York, delivered the following major (SASU) — recommendations: A new statewide university system should be — organized to include SUNY’s four university centers. Upstate and Downstate Medical Centers, and CUNY’s City College and the CUNY graduate center. Another system, possibly to be cabled Empire State University, should be developed and include SUNY and CUNY’s four and two year colleges. This system could be divided into Metropolitan, Northeastern and Western regions, each ruled by a Governor appointed board of trustees. The Commission recommended changing the method of selecting state education Regents to include gubernatorial appointment, a citizen’s screening committee and then senatorial confirmation. Seven Regents should be designated Higher Education Regents and be entirely responsible to that area. Presently, the Regents are charged with overseeing the state’s overall education — — system but there is great debate over what their responsibilities actually include. Private schools benefited The Commission recommended a $10 million increase over Carey’s proposals for the City University’s senior colleges. The state’s Bundy Aid to private colleges should be maintained at present levels, according to the preliminary report. The maximum award for lower division students would be raised to $1700, costing the state $7 million. This increase would benefit only private college students- since TAP aid cannot exceed tuition. The Commission move was scored by critics as designed to shift aid away from public college students directly, and at great cost, toward private students. Other recommendations include accepting the federal government’s definition of “financial emancipation” and divesting the State Education Department of all functions other than those directly related to education. Student reaction to the report, which will be presented in its final form to the approval of the Governor and the Senate later this month, is strongly critical. Student Association of the State University (SASU) Legislative Director Joel Packer said that itfc effect would be two universities one elite and the other inferior in quality and probably in funding. SUNY and CUNY student leaders are planning a series of actions this month culminating in a demonstration at the Capitol March 15 in support of public education and particularly the Tuition Assistance Program. — ■ Ricky Yaverbaum £ W tLtnos m / Art Lalonde —continued from page 1— } ...

One Council member related to College Council discusses next year SUNY restructure unlikely Managing Editor ■ The College Council convened in open session Monday for the second time this year, focusing discussion of the Graduate Union Student Employees (GSEU) and the newly disclosed proposal to restructure the SUNY and CUNY systems. The meeting was brief and subdued, in marked contrast to last month’s stormy conference. The Wessel Commission, which was established by Governor Carey 'to alleviate the financial problems of CUNY and guarantee equity between students of CUNY and SUNY, formulated a plan to rearrange the state’s public colleges and universities into two major New York State systems. The report, which was to be released in January, was leaked to The New York Times two weeks ago. The University of the State of New York would comprise the four major SUNY centers, the Upstate and Dowhstafe Medical several agricultural schools, schools, and the four major CUNY center, 11 units in all. The Empire State University would include the 68 remaining units, of the SUNY/CUNY. Two centers supervisory bodies, would the of Regents have final power? he asked the members of the Council. “Somebody will have to coordinate everything,” he said, adding that the Regents was the only body mentioned in the Wessel report to fulfill that function. On the other hand, Ketter said that a tendency to bring the SUNY universities financial level down to its colleges level would be eliminated by establishing the proposed University system. He said that the chance of a merger is “near zero” for the next year. Board Won’t support GSEU Ketter had no personal comment on the Wessel plan, explaining that, as of yet, he had not seen the actual report. It is not expected to be fully published until March 31. Howevet, to maintain “fiscal sanity,” a merger of the CUNY and SUNY -will be necessary, he asserted, although not necessarily conforming to the blueprints of the Wessel Commission. According to Ketter, Acting SUNY Chancellor James Kelly criticized the report, maintaining that the Commission had come up with a solution to a problem that was never defined. With the GSEU strike vote in progress this week, Ketter read a draft of the statement presented before the Faculty Senate yesterday, detailing his reaction to the March 7 meeting with members of the Graduate Student Association (GSA) and GSEU. “1 was asked to. recognize the Graduate Student Employees Union as bargaining agent for graduate students receiving state-funded stipends. I was also asked to discuss, in the form of addition, the Govenor In would nominate members of the Board of Regents, pending Senate confirmation. The Regents are the state now elected by Seven of those Legislature. members would make up the Commission of Higher Education, acting as the governing body of the two systems. Governance would be further sub-divided into five Boards of Trustees, one to oversee the University of the State issues negotiations, of New York, one to head the contract Empire State University, which rallied raised by the GSEU, and to would also have three others to arrange to have state officials cover the Metropolitan New York, present who could make contract Northeastern, and Western section decisions,” Ketter read from his prepared statement. of the Empire State University. presented Ketter several “In response, I stated that I contrasting analyses of the plan.

However, Michael Sartisky, a representative of the GSEU charged that the statistics were inaccurate. Council member Bill Baird hushed Sartisky, reminding him that the meeting was not a public hearing. In an interview with The Spectrum, Sartisky asserted that Ketter has manipulated the data. He explained that when GSEU was seeking recognition from Albany officials, the Office of Employment Relations filed ,an affadavit that claimed the number of TA/GA lines and funding had remained the same since 1974. that the committee administrators’ salaries had been frozen for the past five years. Student representative' David Brownstein replied that while some administrators earn $45,000, the average graduate stipend is $3,000, suggesting the “different implications” of a freeze. A $200 increase would significantly affect a student’s standard of living, he said. .'°d with Ketter said he attesting to Brownstein, the “despicable” circumstances preventing a stipend increase. He maintained that increased graduate stipends had been the University’s number one priority in the budget;, this year the University requested an additional $300,000, which would increase the average stipend by $300. The request was denied by Albany. ‘Number one priority’ “In spite of past efforts, those of us here at the University have He read off a list of universities, all of which had higher stipend averages, including SUNY at Stony brook. The highest stipend a student can receive is S3,900, according to the SUNY guidelines. Of the 1,058 assistants who receive stipends, only 742 earn over $3,000 and up. In his draft, Ketter wrote, “At the other (SUNY) centers, assistantships are managed by the graduate office. This centralized control has enabled them to normalize stipends, while our own pattern of departmental control (of assistantships) has resulted in a wide range of awards.” Brownstein asked Ketter if he support would publicly the GSEU. Ketter refused, reiterating that he does not consider assistants employees. He did say, however, that he would abide by the state’s decision, if it should grant GSEU union status. In other business, Ketter said that he expected the period of budget lobbying by SUNY to itensify soon. He also told Council members that the University is no longer in danger of Hooding. Silber: Union is recognizable Editor’s Note: The Graduate Student Employee’s Union’s presence on campus and their calls for suppprt hare raised many questions in the minds of graduate and undergraduate students. This article, essentially an articulation of the Union’s views on several matters, was the product of a talk last week with G'SEV lawyer Sue Silber. In light of this week's balloting for a possible week, strike to begin next the interview encompassed legal questions involved in Union recognition, employee status and rights, and the general legal aspects of striking. The balloting which began Monday saw 121 votes cast. About 71 were , by Fredda Cohen recognized the need to increase strpehds even further' in order for this institution to be competitive. recorded during the vote. first .day of last year's strike that, not yet designated as public employees, the Taylor Law would not apply to them. Should the University attempt to use Taylor Law penalties to supress the strike, she indicated, a Catch-22 would be created: by penalizing GAs and TAs as public employees, the administration would he in marked contradiction to its years-old stand that they are not employees, rather that they are apprentices, as Ketter recently named them. Scabbing a breach? Silber brought up the allegation that the administration would- attempt- to force faculty to teach TAs’ classes, using the threat of the Taylor Law as a Weapon., Interviewed in her home earlier this week, GSEU lawyer Sue Silber explained that in New York State there are two inenas for a union to be recognized. The first involved the State’s Public Employee Relations Board, that body concerned with interpreting the State’s law regarding public employees. PERB certifies a union as the bargaining agent for a given group of employees, an act which binds the particular public employer to negotiations “in good faith” with that union. “With the Taylor Law, employees give up the right to strike, and in return receive guarantees' of good faith bargaining and binding arbitration at points of impasse,” Silber said, The Taylor Law specifically bans public employee strikes. The second method is voluntary recognition by the local university. It is an option available to President Robert Ketter, according to Silber, and within his power. “To obtain PERB recognition, Teaching Assitants and Graduate Assitants (TAs and GAs) must be defined as employees, and the union must be a statewide organization Should the University itself recognize the Union, GSEU could be the local bargaining agent and need not be a statewide organization, which would require organizing on at least three other major SUNY campuses.” ‘Extreme provocation’ Ketter has a great deal of power to act, Silber emphasized. “If the campus is closed down, he can call the Office of Employee Relations to come and begin bargaining, he definitely could. In fact, the first requirement to any bargaining in good faith is that the officers with which the Union is negotiating be empowered to negotiate on the specific demands.” Silber was asked what provisions were made to force a public employer, in this case SUNY and the State, to bargain in good faith. “The intent of the Taylor Law is to promote peaceful labor relations,” she said, “and in the case of a strike, the imposition of penalties can be rethought, should it be proven that negotiations were not carried out in good faith. In this case, the administration has for years refused to negotiate, and it could be said that in fact it is the University that has gone on strike against its own workers. This contempt to the law is a form of “extreme provocation,” and the Union may see itself as forced to take a job action.” Does that imply that,the Taylor Law applies to graduate employees? The Labor lawyer responded ■* Sue Silber Zlffer “The administration will definitely do that, faculty to do though so last year, and using those references couched in more gentile terms. But I think the faculty would recognize that to do so would be scabbing, and unnecessary, since it would be a breach of their own contract.” Silber was asked if faculty could aid the strike without being penalized under the Taylor Law. “Slowdowns, blue flu, and the like have all been held to be a form of strike, and therefore illegal. The burden of proof, however, and this is crucial, is on the administration a faculty vote to strike is clearly illegal, but if one-third of the faculty is not teaching, it has to be proven on a case-by-case basis that they are striking. Other forms of protest, letters, statements of being forced to teach, are all legal.” The GSEU, advised Silber “would not advocate illegal actions on the part of any other group, but leaves it up to the creative genius of their fellow employees to support [them] in whatever way they can.” because they circulated a memo asking — — .» Wednesday, 16 March 1977 The Spectrum Page three . . �,V,' Griffen: Union pickets likely to be peaceful Editor's Note: Following is an interview with Lee Griffin, Director of University Police, on the possibilities which may arise from a graduate student strike. GSEU’s strike vote continues this week. The interview was conducted by R. Gilbert. people who will find other methods than violence to attain their goals. Q: Do you think the Union has a legal right to strike? A: That’s not for me to say. 1 will comment that they have a legal right to picket, within certain bounds. your dealings with of the University in general those bounds regulations regarding disruption are that pickets not disrupt or obstruct the functioning of the University, or obstruct traffic flow. We spoke in our meeting of possible problems when large trucks or any other vehicles come to the picket lines and the driver, of his own accord, decides not to cross that line. Should there be any problems with traffic flow in that case, we’ll facilitate that. Q With regard to that meeting with the Union members, what was the end result? A. Just as I said, it seems their intentions are good. Given the 1 tone of the meeting, unless the current leadership is unseated, there should be no problems. In the event that there are, we have made arrangements to call the Union before we take action, and to generally keep the lines of communication open. Q As I understand it, University Police are union members themselves, of State public employees unions. Would campus police honor picket lines? A: I couldn’t speak for them, but it would be a violation of the Taylor Law [State public employees law] It’s in our contract that “no strike of'any kind shall be condoned . That’s Article 27 in our contract Q: I was just thinking of union solidarity and all that A: Well, you must recognize too that the need for security still exists Q: I'd like to ask about yo"r role in the University Q: What have been the extent pf the GSEU? A: My past experience with them has been very good. The people I have come into contact with are responsible people, they understand a given situation and work reasonably toward their stated goals. Their actions in the past have been responsible, legal and peaceful, insofar as I have known about them. Q: Can you give an example? A: Well, for example, at the demonstration that they organized for Governor Carey’s appearance at the Bubble last year. Though we had some trouble there, the actions of the Union were always within legal bounds, and orderly As has been the case before, some trouble occurred when other groups were agitating and disrupting. Q: With regards to the possible upcoming strike, do you foresee any trouble? Aj I recently had a meeting with what I presume were three of the Union’s leaders. We talked about their plans, and our [Security’s] relation to them. We spoke of their plans to picket key areas in and around the University, ot our actions vdlb regard to those picket lines. In general I don’t look for pny trouble in dealing with the GSEU. First,'they are very well prepared as to what they can legally do. As I understand, and believe, it is not their intention to violate any law or University regulation. Now there may be people who will try to escalate things who are not even affiliated with GSEU. But with that exception we are dealing with a sophisticated group of Q: What are those hounds? A: Well, 1 can give you Special to The Spectrum If government statistics and most (CPS) university health administrators are to be believed, usage of LSD is waning slowly on the American campus as well as amongst the U.S. population as a whole. Indeed, in this decade of limited expectations, federal Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) spokesmen indicate that even legal medical experimentation with the drug practically has ceased. Thus it has gained, along with heroin and some other narcotics, a top spot on the DEA’s “Schedule One” drug list, which includes those villainous mind-twisters with no known medicinal value and correspondingly “high abuse potential." “LSD is on the decline,” noted one DEA spokesman, “but that doesn’t mean it’s not agamsi the law. and we plan to enforce the federal law." Asked if there had been any grand uncoverings of LSD caches by his agency recently, he replied, “no big busts on LSD lately, no, not LSD.” Figures from the National Institute- on Drug Abuse (NIDA) have been collected only long enough to add mystery and uncertainty to the question ot the hallucinogen’s popularity In 1972, for instance, 4.8 percent of Americans under 18 were estimated to have tried the drug at least once; the figure increased to 6 percent in- 1974. then declined to 4.5 percent in 1976. A similar household poll of adults undulated, with the highest percentage occurring in the most recent 1976 survey, presumably when a solid portion of the 1974 under-18 acid fanciers had turned voting age. A spokesman for NIDA Indicated that actual figures might be even higher, because the poll was conducted in homes “and those who have no permanent residence are likely to be among the heaviest drug users.” With occasional exceptions, most university officials believe that LSD use has declined to varying degrees on their campuses, though few claim to possess hard evidence. “There’s not much LSD here,” said an assistant director at the University of Wisconsin at Madison health center. “We certainly don’t see any medical fall-out here at the center, though they may be — ” - ...

Acid ingestion at Berkeley is now “negligible,” he said, and his force makes few LSD arrests. He added, however, that cocaine and marijuana enthusiasts have replaced the former acid heads. “The burned-out victims (of LSD) on Telegraph Avenue have had quite an effect here on campus,” the sergeant speculated. Conversely, University of New Hampshire infirmary officials in Durham feel that there has been increasing acid usage at UNH this year.

The only figures available show that three students were hospitalized at Madison due to bad trips in 1973. while none have been confined due to acid this past academic year. Students, continued the assistant director, are turning increasingly to alcohol in Wisconsin. A former acid head at Princeton University, who said he last dropped the potent tab three years ago. loosely parallelled the medical center director’s thoughts in explaining the lessening popularity of LSD on campus Q: All right. There has been some speculation among some students and Union members that being subject to the orders of the President, you may be told to do things that, if not clearly illegal, would at least not be in accord with some of the things you have told me so far. For example, would you obey an order to disband what you personally and professionally consider to be legal pickets? A: You question is fairly garbled. Are you saying would we pull off legally placed pickets? Q: Well, yes. Basically what I’m saying is: Are you responsible first to Ketter or first to what you believe to be the law? A; We are responsible first to Ketter if there is a legal order given. President Ketter would not give an illegal order. Also, I can’t imagine an illegal order being given, given the machinery that exists to resolve these orders. Q: Other speculation has been that possiblity that Buffalo police may at some point be called on campus. Is this possible? A: That would only happen if the situation were deemed beyond our control. I do not foresee any possibility of that as I said, these people are responsible, and they will use other methods than violence to address their plight. Q: Do you see that plight as one justifying a strike? A: You’ve been consistently„trying to put me in a position of conflict with President Ketter, and that’s not That’s not something the case.

According to a recent memo composed by Vice President for Academic Affairs Ronald F. Bunn, this plan will preserve the present system, while providing for possible difficulties with as little disruption as possible. Bunn conducted extensive meetings with University President Robert Ketter, other faculty and administration members, and officials of the Student Association (SA) before determining this policy. —Vazquez Student-Wide Judiciary SASUelection invalidated The Student-Wide Judiciary has invalidated the recent election of SASU delegates. The decision is expected to be appealed. The SASU election was formally protested by independent candidate Michael Schwartz apd Alan Stein. Neither Schwartz nor Stein were among the the winning three in six-candidate field. They collected 386 and 734 votes respectively. by The two protest candidates was independent upheld by a three-member panel of student judges. While no written decision has been made public, the judges apparently believed the plaintiffs contention that malfunctions in voting machines in the Ellicott Student Club and at least one other location seriously disrupted the voting. Student Association President Steve Schwartz, and Student Affairs Coordinator Lee Peres, both of whose terms of office expired this week, argued strongly that the disruption in voting, which apparently had locked out votes on certain candidates’ lines, would not have significantly affected the outcome of the election. Perres told the panel of judges last Thursday night in Squire (Norton) Hall that another election would cost money and receive an even smaller turnout than usual. Perres at one point claimed no candidate protested the election to the SA Elections and Credentials committee at the committee’s first meeting after the election. Schwartz hotly Michael contested this, and Peres and Schwartz later conceded that this might not be the case. Winning SASU delegates in the invalidated election were Jeff Winkler, with 1488 votes; Clare Reardon with 1297; and Allen Clifford with 1196. Debbie White was first runner-up with 916 votes. Lev Proposal submitted The student government for course credit proposal of Michael Steven Levinson (Lev) was submittted to the formally Student Association last week. If approved, the SA constitution requires a referendum to be put before the student body in three weeks. The decision to give students the opportunity to vote on the Lev Proposal was not contigent on the invalidation of the SASU delegate election. Outgoing SA Executive Vice President Steve Spiegel said, “1 don’t know about any deadline to hold new SASU emphasized, He elections.” however, that if both the referendum are and the re-election held, “it would make sense economically to hold them both at the same time.” The Lev Proposal petitions widely circulated in and around Squire Hall, call for the abolition of SA and the institution of courses student government which, as units of students making decisions of interest to the entire undergraduate population, would be offered for credit. This would do away with all stipended positions in any student group funded by SA, and in SA itself. Levinson has indicated his desire to teach several of these courses. Before hold the it can decide on SA must referendum, the legality of the proposal and the validity of the names on the petitions. Spiegel gave a copy of the proposal to students in Legal MULTIDISCIPLINARY CENTER FOR THE STUDY OF AGING Dr. Reuben Andres, Chief, Clinical Physiology Branch, National Institute of Aging, Gerontology Research Center, Baltimore City Hospital, Baltimore, Speaking on Maryland OF NORMAL AGING MEDICAL ASPECTS THE THURSDAY, MARCH 17th from 1:30 2:45 pm Aid Services, who, together with a lawyer, will determine its legality. “We.ll check back with them at the end of the week to see what’s going on,” Speigel said, adding, “unless they come back to us before then.” He said he would submit the petition to the SA Elections and Credentials Committee Tuesday, who will go over the names with the computer in Admissions and Records. If passed by SA, the referendum would appear in the voting booths as a “constitutional amendment by substitution,” or, in other words, an amendment to abolish its own constitution. “The noon periods will not be used to jschedule 4 (credit hours) for 3 (contact hours) or 3 (credit hours) for 3 (contact hours), but rather will provide the additional contact opportunity required for undergraduate classes in which a fourth contact hour is educationally necessary,” the memo said. Further guidelines According to Faculty Senate Chairperson Jonathan Reichert, most classes will continue to meet for the present 50-minute or 80-minute periods because they actually provide one contact hour for each credit hour, or they have been approved by the Faculty Senate’s Committee on contact/credit exceptions. The new policy applies only to the upcoming academic year, while the credit/contact hour system here is being evaluated. In his memorandum, Bunn also set the following guidelines for scheduling. 1. Scheduling requests for 4 for 4 will be seated for 4 contact hours with priority, if desired, for the free noon period; 2. Scheduling requests for 4 for 3 will be seated for 3 contact hours, pending approval of justifications by the Faculty Senate Committee; 3. Scheduling requests for 3 for 3 will be seated for 3 contact hours, pending approval of justifications by the Faculty Senate Committee; and. 4. Those courses which request 4-3 or 3-3 and are not approved by the Faculty Senate Committee will presumably also be scheduled for 4 contact hours during the free noon period.

Lindley Special to the Spectrum (CPS) An apparent rise in crime on many of the nation’s campuses is persuading numerous college administrators to beef up security measures. Though the rise in lawlessness in the nation’s colleges does not appear as severe as the rise amongst the general populace (FBI figures claim that the incidence of U.S. crime has nearly tripled since 1965, although some sociologists claim these figures have been exaggerated in order to precipitate Congrtssionaf funding), schools from North Carolina to North Dakota are trying to come to grips with the delicate issue. Vandalism and theft have become the most common problem in the rising tide of skullduggery. For instance, one member of the student government at the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown remarked that rising vandalism there might make the campus an “incredible insurance risk.” A West Virginia college is requiring all dorm guests to sign visitor passes and promises to prosecute those who don’t with criminal trespassing. Meanwhile, an average of 16 college students a week are being arrested* for shoplifting in Greensboro, N.C., according to its district attorney, and the district judge there growls that “I do not know what the solution is to students shoplifting. The only thing the courts can do is start handing put active sentences.” r — You never know At Penn State University, the student government vice president is circulating a petition among the students that would demand that the campus police be armed. So far, 80 percent of the PSU students polled have favored guns for. their guards. Meanwhile, the president of Southwestern University in Texas has been griping about a “case of indecent exposure” at his campus, but has emphasized that disorder can be overcome without “creating an atmosphere of unhealthy fear or a climate of unreasonable suspicion.” Some campus crimestoppers believe that guns should be Supplied to the campus security guard, whose status, they continue, should be uplifted to that of a regular police officer. James Paul, chief of security at PSU, noted that “the sidearm is the basic tool of the officer. Would you send a surgeon to perform an operation without a scalpel?” The director of student affairs at PSU is in disaccord with the chief’s views, however. “You can never tell when somebody will overreact, no matter how well-trained,” he retorted. No point At the behest of the crime-riddled University of Oregon Health Science Center in Portland, a bill that would arm campus police in the state was introduced in the Oregon State Legislature March 2, and is currently in the Judiciary Committee. However, a campus security sergeant at Oregon State University in Corvallis, and many other campus security agents in the state, said they did not want to carry guns. A regent who recommended against the bill warned of “the creation of mini police forces which would not be accountable to anyone which is, in effect, what we are doing here.” “There’s no point in carrying guns,” echoed Dean Robert Nye of Kearney State College in Nebraska. The college outlawed guns for campus security in 1974. “We needed a security force rather than a police force.” At colleges where the crime rate has dropped, success has been attributed often to increased student participation in the Law ‘n Order process. At Memphis State University, for instance, the director of security reported that 1976 thefts were down about 20 percent from 1975 because students were “reporting suspicious characters and criminal actions more. In the past, especially the late 60’s and early 70’s, ripoffs were accepted and sometimes even encouraged by the — public.” Though the crime rate is slightly off at the University of New Hampshire, brawls have become a big problem there, and two security guards are being stationed at each dorm party. One student who was returning from the Library was beaten at his dormitory’s door by a drunken party-goer and filed assault charges against his assailant I had a final the next day because “that fight obstructed my studies that 1 had to miss because I went to see the justice of the peace.” “I’ve had it,” stormed a disgruntled dorm leader. “I’ll call the cops when I see trouble now whether it’s a fight at a party or someone crawling up the fire escape.” — — Page six .

More than a miscarriage of justice, last month’s proceedings were nothing less than a moralistic witchtrial, carefully brewed by prosecutor Simon Leis Jr., and by Judge William overseen obscene. Flynt’s attorney, Harald Price Fahringer, attempted to introduce other men’s magazines as graphic evidence of true Cincinnati standards.

Hustler is in persons engaged in illegal activity no legal danger there. for profit.” . Aided and abetted Since Hustler is neither published nor distributed out of Cincinnati, the prosecutor had to somehow link Flynt to individuals in the area in order to make use of the law. He succeeded. By maintaining Flynt had “aided and abetted” Marshall News Co., the local distributing firm, Leis had his five or more persons guilty of organized crime. It seems some are more guilty than others. The distributor was not indicted. Although the statute’s wording may be somewhat ambiguous, the penalties it provides are precise and to the point. Flynt faces No bail for Flynt Cincinnati is dead serious about protecting its citizenry. Larry Flynt, purveyor of dirty was considered pictures, dangerous enough to be denied bail, a measure usually reserved for presidential assassins and heiress kidnappers. It seems Flynt’s mere presence on the streets of Cincinnati is considered obscene.

Page seven �Correction EditPrial Vote strike In case you're wondering how to vote in this week's Graduate Student Employee's Union strike balloting, we would like to turn your attention to last Friday's Haas Lounge forum with Executive Vice President Albert Somit, and other members of the Ketter administration. Somit, although an agile speaker, did not effectively answer many substantive questions put forward by GSEU and raised by Union members during the debate Friday. Although there was some grandstanding on the part of questioners, Somit at several points needlessly resorted to sarcasm and supercilious replies which skirted many reasonable, issue-oriented inqueries. Typical was his response to a question about GSEU's demand for smaller class size: "There is no study that indicates any correlation between class size and quality of education." Maybe so. But isn't it obvious that class size will determine at least the amount of individual attention a student will get from an instructor, and is that possibility so remote that Somit requires a study to confirm it? At another point, Somit replied to a lengthy statement from the floor which had drawn applause by saying, "Apparently the applause is in response to your fervor more than your intellectual coherence." Additionally, Somit and other administrators are only prepared to call on statistics which support their rebuttals to GSEU. For example. President Robert Ketter told the College Council Tuesday that 15 percent of the University's courses are taught by graduate students. In fact, there are so many variations across departments and contradicting formulas for 9etermining who carries how much of the course load, that such a statistic is currently impossible to compute. Vet, when asked about the number of women and minority graduate students that have been admitted to the University, Somit hastened to point out that there was no available information on that matter. The great irony of the GSEU issue is that the conflict between the Union and the University administration is over how much the administration should or could do to alleviate the plight of graduate students here, and does not concern that is the specifics of whether grads are in trouble be the case. The Ketter mutually recognized to to GAs and TAs stipend paid administration agrees that the and it is that praiseworthy is well below the national average, aid, financial mainly in restoration of severely-cut graduate the TAP program, has been a major budget priority this year and last. But it is unthinkable that this should be enough. Somit and Ketter have repeatedly pointed out that they have done all that they can within the limits of State law, and that whatever else they might have done is precluded by the felt belief that GAs and TAs are not employees, and receive money solely by virtue of their academic positions. Well, we think Ketter and Somit are hiding in legal semantics again, because graduate students are paid, indeed, must live off the wage they are paid for services performed at and for the University. As long as our administrators continue to take refuge in tenuous employee/apprentice distinction, graduate students here really have little choice but to vote to strike. the In Monday’s front-page article on text headline and Student Senate meeting, the proposed were inaccurate with reference to a resolution. Graduate Student Employee’s Union to back In fact, the Student Senate did not refuse ot consideration a GSEU strike, but postponed time. of discussion lack resolution for the were In addition, several inaccuracies reported in an article concerning the Graduate Executive Vice Student Association meeting with Friday. Somit on Albert President Repeated in the article was a Somit comment that a 1974 report, passed by a committee of administrators and the GSA, had declared that graduate and teaching assistants were not employees, but taught as part of their education. Unmentioned was a 1977 GSA resolution which endorsed the right of the GSEU “to collectively bargain with officers of SUNY Buffalo ..” . Another Somit comment unattributed to him asserted that the State’s Tuition Assitance Program cuts affected graduate students in only eliminating TAP for longer than one way fourth-semester associate of masters degree candidates. Actually, there are at least four other areas where TAP cuts have seriously affected graduate students. Two of the questions included in the articles were misstated. The first questioner stated that President Robert Ketter had promised to lobby in Albany for the restoration of cut graduate employee tuition waivers, but in fact had not done so. Somit agreed that the allegations were true, though it it not implied in the article. A second questioner asked if it was not a conflict of interest that the persons who sit on SUNY Boards of Trustees are often the very same persons that buy the bonds used to finance SUNY construction. - .

Wednesday, 16 March 1977 Female trouble: sick To the Editor. features After seeing the UUAB movie “Female Trouble” I feel compelled to write this letter. It was by far the sickest, most demented movie 1 have ever seen. I feel the movie had absolutely no redeeming A changed form On the afternoon of Fri., March 11, there was a forum sponsored by the GSA where a half dozen administrators were present to speak and answer questions. I’ve been here in Buffalo about ten years now and it seems the task of the administration to cloud and mystify the issues as much as possible hasn’t changed. On this occasion Dean Holt’s performance in relationship to the question of the GSA’s position on whether it conceives TA’s and GA’s not only as students, but also as workers, was particularly scandalous. He quoted some student representatives of the GSA to the effect that TA’s and GA’s are not workers in this University and he thereby tried to have us believe that that was the position of the GSA. Luckily someone asked when those quotes came out. It turned out that a couple of the representatives had given their opinions on the question opinions that were in conflict with the stated resolutions of the GSA. But most striking to the audience that afternoon was the admission that these private opinions were expressed in 1974. Now we can’t call that which Dean Holt said an outright lie. But where do we draw the line between a lie and the attempt to give an appeardnce contrary to the facts? This sort of distortion of the situation is typical of the administration’s tactics of obfuscation that keep the students and the taxpayers in the dark as to what is really going on here in the State University system. And you can see clearly their other tactics of laying down blankets of longwinded verbiage nothing, about slow, substanceless speaking that tells us nothing and wastes our precious time, faulty substitution of .. that the film committee showed Slenn Kaiser of life To the Editor. . and extremely poor taste in bringing the film to campus. Hope in the future they will screen their movies a little more closely. pre-suppoisitions in the handling of questioners’ remarks and questions, dodging pointed questions, responding with ad hominem attacks on grad students’ sense of judgment, etc., etc. Somit and Holt and the rest of these puppets in their fine $45,000 a year jobs command no further respect or attention. These emperors have shown the quality of their clothes. And it’s about time for people to speak more clearly and honestly, break through the veils and restraints of these kinds of truncated “dialogues” and begin to call the situation as it is to speak authentic words and stand up for what we know. These men are thieves who have stolen the University from the people and now steal our very language; our speech is made worthless, it no longer manifests the real. The inhumane, formalized modes of interaction in our departments continue the oppression and suppression that drain us of our energy and life. We don’t have to wait for the next generation of Haldemans and Erlichmans; it is already with us well entrenched in our University. As long as we who try to be honest and straightforward (among students, faculty, administration, staff, etc.) do not raise our voices in the face of those distortions and deceit (it is the accepted everydayness of it that is so appalling), it’ll go on and on until we and our children no longer remember what it is to distinguish right from wrong, and we’ll be living so well unified with the incredible system. Our goal must not be merely a changed political, social, educational structure, but also a changed form of life. ... Terry Keegan �of Chug YIsrael To the Editor. 'o the Editor. We are writing in response to Mr. Raphael Shapiro’s letter in the Friday, March 11 Spectrum, xmcerning our add fpr Chug Yisrael (March 4). Mr. Shapiro has, by pure conjecture, misrepresented our function on this campus. Chug Yisrael has absolutely no connection with any other group whatsoever. It was formed by four students who wished to create an environment where purely informal discussion could take place on issues concerning them; specifically, our personal relationship to Israel. Our purpose in advertising was simply to invite anyone else with similar interests. We would also be interested in finding out where Mr. Shapiro stumbled over this alleged “propaganda campaign” that was supposedly “organized by the Israeli consulates at N.Y.C., Washington, D.C., and L.A.” during “January and February in N.Y.C.” After intensive investigation on our part, we question the validity of the names of the three gentlemen he spoke of in his letter and their alleged “propaganda connection with this campaign.” Furthermore, »t is beyond our comprehension that any propaganda campaign launched by a government would be spearheaded by the “Ministry of Defense,” an “economist,” an “Expert in American law,” and four students at the University of Buffalo. If Mr. Shapiro or anyone else wishes further debate on this topic, they are welcome to attend the next meeting of Chug Yisrael (discussion group on Israel), Sunday, March 20 at 7:30 p.m., Room 334 Norton Hall. Chug Yisrael b closed minds . 'o the Editor There’s always something pitiable about ;lf-defeat and for that ineffable reason the plans by ic GSEU to strike are enough to make one weep.

There is still a sufficiently nbridgeable distance between our viewpoints (them nd me) so that one can form some conjectures bout their deeper motives and still maintain that ntellectual reserve granted anthropologists visiting trange tribes. I beg your indulgence. What does a GSEU militant tell him/herself in er/his private moments? Oh, I’m sure the bulk of rose private ruminations are not much different ■om those the rest of us mortals form in our lonely, afty privileged respites from a spit and hum world if drum and dram.

Let me address those private interludes of dishonesty. The favorite tactic of power movements with dubious motives is to cloak their goals in a choking lust-cloud of incontestably admirable ends. Nobody of good heart and cheer (like myself) would really Wish to debate the GSEU on those points they are Impotent to affect anyway: to maintain the 4-course load; limit class size; affirm Affirmative Action (they said “Encouraging,” those wishy-washy creeps); maintain better security on campus “for both graduate and undergraduate students” (there’s a fine point! Who was the first to shout against increased security budgets at the expense of teaching assistantships? Against Guns on campus? Against police lurking incognito in certain public places? One guess. And whence the sudden invidious distinction between grad and undergrad?); restore “services essential to both of us” ( quote these points from their letter of 'The Spectrum, March 2). Who could argue these points? Who what the when? And how . . . — the which? But around what principles did the GSEU originally organize? Higher salaries for themselves. Why? Because they deserve it, they said, because some schools award their TA’s and GA’s higher salaries (some), because, by golly, they’re pretty darn good teachers, aren’t they? After all, how many TA’s have had the courage and patience to use valuable class time to promote the world-shaking ideas which resonate behind the GSEU struggle, class after radical class? Criminal. Man, (oh, and woman) haven’t you had enough of that hog swill and goose slime and bat guano? Oh, yeah, grads are friendlier, more sympathetic, do finer drugs, give nicer-looking grades, hold parties at their house, consort with students, sit on the desk, drink lots of beer. But they are also notorious for wining (forgive the anti-caterpillar jokes) their lessons, for their lack of information, irresponsibility, nervous breakdowns, curious and to speak comprehensibly, persistent inability broadly, un-neurotically to fresh people. That is, jivers and jivettes, our grad students, how passing strange, have not yet LEARNED HOW TO TEACH! Every good teacher knows that s/he must learn how to teach, that s/he’s still learning, that that’s the idea, that grads are in their apprenticeship, that there’s a certain technique, a private knack to speaking in “legible slogans’’ in those neon signs with ideas behind them big enough to be swallowed and . . " kept through even the longest T.V. marathon and the most exciting hockey season. No one claims that there is a magic division between professor and grad student that is crossed by the smudging of a name on a dotted line at the bottom of a teaching contract. Prof. X, notorious onanist, might be less equipped to teach than prodigal grad student F., yes. But changes are and the British love to gamble, don’t you know that X. has made some commitment to research or some commitment to production (didn’t someone say “All value derives in labor”) or some commitment to commitment p.g.s. F. hasn’t conceived of yet. When you get down to crass facts (brass tacks) the GSEU was a greedy idea originated among some folks who realized that they were in a tunnel which promised no light at its end; in fact, there was probably not even another tunnel at the end of the tunnel (Oh, Cul-de-sac City!) at least, not for them. exercize in Grad studentship, can be an brinksmanship if played correctly, that is, with a certain humor and integrity despite its many, discomfiting aspects (poverty, boredom, an unmanageable cornucopia of free time and sex). One would think, at very bottom, that if it was so uncomfortable, a grad would try to get out as quickly as possible. Instead, the GSEU pushes to make t.a.-ship virtually cushy. And this lack of imagination of the GSEU is paralleled by the source of its largest strength:, the Awareness Contingent, recruited from those departments in which a motley group of folks are most hopeless of turning their crapola into payola, from those disciplines which require the least discipline, from those schools (of thought, cupcake) where grad students can most easily substitute talk about their radical ideals for ideas, political leaflets for primary texts, the syntax of rebellion for the simple grammar of an English language (OH, most abused Mother Tongue, lick me!) half their students can’t write correctly and, thanks to them, never will. Students Arise! Fight the GSEU! If they vote Strike, attend the teacherless classes! Organize study groups! Sit in silent protest against their dereliction! Get your money’s worth out of tuition! You-paid them to teach, don’t let them get away with it! Can you stand being addressed that way? Isn’t it somewhat embarrassing that nearly grown folks go around shouting like that? If the Grad students of the GSEU were being honest they would stop shouting and admit that theirs is a luxury position (created by an over-fattened State University system of the sixties) suddenly under attack in an era of political and financial retrenchment. Few working paid get class people more to do less. ($30.))/teaching hour). The time they put in for preparing is their learning, and doesn’t count as salaried work, that’s why they’re still students. Isn’t that simple? (tuition free, too). And how, may one ask, can there be smaller classes without more t.a.’s? And if there are more t.a.’s, how can each be paid more instead of less? And even if this money is miraculously found somewhere in the porcine and corrupt State bureaucracy, why the hell would a grad student in, oh, let’s pick one at random, English, say, why, in God’s name would s/he want competition in a field where there are already less jobs per PhD than can be imagined, where V* of the graduates might have a job in their field five years after they get their doctorate? Logic, please, a little simple logic. Shut up, you in the back. Don’t you believe in freedom for the people? Aren’t you a clear-thinking revolutionary? Can’t a high-minded person try to line his pockets a little these days? I am writing to comi'lain about these so-called special discounts you can receive while dining out at a restaurant. When 1 registered to go to school here this semester they gave me a little discount book called Dollars-Off which contains all sorts of discounts on restaurants and stores. Well last weekend I thought I would take advantage of one of these offers and took my girlfriend out for dinner at Mulligan’s. Being like most college students and not having much money, I called the restaurant earlier to get some of their dinner prices and was told that the meals start at S4.25, but they do have crepes for about $2.75. So my girlfriend and myself went out to dinner and ordered drinks and the crepes. However, when it came time to pay and I showed them my four-dollar discount on dinner for two they told me that what we had really wasn’t considered dinner so we couldn’t use the discount. First of all the crepes were listed under the main section of the menu and not under the deserts, and second of all what right do they have to tell me what I am to eat for dinner. I only wish that in the future if they insist that in order to use the discount you must get a full course dinner then it should say that somewhere on the discount booklet. Not just four dollars off dinner for two. 1 hope that this letter serves as a warning to other students who. are also looking to save a few dollars.

Brownstein on election To the Editor . role Discounts no good This letter is in response to an “opinion” (however unqualified) entitled “Campus Unrest,” written by Charles Greenberg for The Spectrum March 11th issue (last Friday). It is obviously an attempt to analyze the recent S.A. elections. It is a poor attempt. As the Insight Party’s candidate for President, I will attempt to respond to Mr. Greenberg’s analysis, and possibly shed a litflfe light on the election myself. Several factors determine the outcome of an election. One of the most powerful would have to be The Spectrum's endorsements. Mr. Greenberg refers to the “responsibility” shown by The Spectrum ’s early , endorsements. The fact is, that when it comes down a vote on who to recommend, unless all candidates for a position are unknown, the “objective interviews” have little to do with the vote. One editor slept through my interview, faces were made behind my back, and I knew that Mr. Greenberg, among others, had decided long before not to endorse me. I played the game hoping nof to be butchered. Another factor this year was the administration. You see, the “opposing party” has an excellent record in support of Athletics, and a memorandum was issued by a Mr. Muto (Men’s Athletics) in support of my opponents; funny how just days later, coaches and physical ed instructors were telling all classes and teams to go out and vote for the other party. So you see, the administration “casts ballots” in S.A. elections as well. What a coincidence, too. They supported the party that labeled our friends in Hayes “the powers that be.” 1 brought this matter to the Elections Committee of S.A. Their answer: “That is pretty rough, isn’t it?” , So rather than protest the election, I jotted off a letter to Dr. Ketter asking him to censure the Athletic Dept, for their unethical involvement. I nowhere profess complacency and reverse my policy of standing up to the administration by asking censure of a branch of the same, as is implied in the article. Mr. Greenberg has covered several stories conflict between myself and the involving administration, and frankly, should know better. All he had to do yas read his own articles. Unfortunately, literacy is not a requirement for Spectrum (sorry, Chuck but your Editofs at The big, cheap, shot). article w*s one Let me end on this note; S.A. has incredible potential.

Apparently the name calling and innuendo has not ended with the election, but continues with Mr. Brownstein’s letter. Charles Greenberg Wednesday, 16 March 1977 The Spectrum Page nine . . �I am writing this because of my deep concern While about the probable strike of GAs and TAs. the issues about discussion much has been there involved, the only voice raised has been that of the GSEU. As a result, there has not been a thorough consideration of these issues or of the wisdom of a strike. Let mV point to my specific concerns. First, the Ketter administration cannot do much about the salaries of GAs/TAs. The fact that the specific state legislature controls allocations for such items in the U.B. budget as this is clear. Indeed, the legislature’s tight control over this aspect of the budget was seen late last spring in its hesitation about approving the full monies for a tuition waiver for GAs/TAs. All the administration can do is to request more money from Albany. It is illogical to say that the administration does not want higher to attractk GA/TA stipends since it is seeking The to U.B. evidence is students graduate top-flight increases. that it has sought stipend Second, the GSEU says that current GA/TA overwhelming salaries are lower than those of the majority of the American workforce. This is true if just by the amount of the stipend is considered however. also, looked at must be Other factors itself. One is that the value of an assistantship can be measured fairly only by putting the amounts of the Stipend and the tuition waiver together. Another is nine-month, not that the assistantship covers a jobs, other and involves twelve-month period as with half-time or less employment. These facts put the relationship between UB’s GA/TAs and the rest of the workforce in a different light. Further, there is a distinction between GAs/TAs and other state employees. A graduate assistantship traditionally has been viewed as an apprenticeship for prospective university teachers and scholars. Unionization would destroy this principle. Third, I am very concerned about the fate of tuition waivers as a result of a strike. The examples of how these were eliminated after unionization at the Universities of Michigan and Wisconsin cannot be taken lightly. If GAs/TAs are lumped with other salaried employees, it will be difficult to justify waivers. asking Albany to continue providing tuition claiming to support Further, the GSEU, while consider it would indicated that waivers, has tuition negotiating them away for a sufficient salary absolutely amount. To me, a tuition waiver is essential. I would not like the idea of having to deplete my bank account or take out a loan and while I wait to earn the interest accure that would enable me to salary commensurate replenish or repay it. hostility that a Fourth, we must consider the Albany, where it would not go strike could create in that we suggesting am not I While unnoticed. legislature, I the state prostitute ourselves before a strike that possibility consider the should think we might could so antagonize the legislature that it create a time and budget at punish to us decide worse situation. New Beyond this, we cannot ignore SUNY and true, While is as the it York State’s budget crisis. less than those here earn says, that GSEU GAs/TAs at other state universities, it should be pointed out that those states do not have as gloomy a fiscal situation as New York. As such, we, along with others on the public payroll, must exercise a measure of self-restraint and have some concern for the common good. Lastly, such non-money issues as better campus security, access to buildings, more office space, and a reduction of excessive class size and workloads do not require a strike to be resolved. They can likely be worked out among GAs/TAs, administration, and departments if considered by themselves and approached more positively. It is unreasonable to assume that the administration is opposed to these. In general, what is needed is not confrontation but a spirit of cooperation. Even if this does not bring immediate results, it will prevent the creation of an bven more difficult situation for GAs/TAs. Undergraduate Economics Assoc.

The debate on abortion, the article published on Mr. Baird (Mar. 4th) and the letter printed criticizing the debate (Mar. 7th) cannot go unchallenged. The lack of proper organization of the debate has already been pointed out by Ms. Marafino and Ms. Hanley. If it had been desired to have Mr. Baird matched with someone “comparable in experience and qualifications, arrangements should have been made for Mr. Baird to debate Dr. Mildred Jefferson, president of Right to Life. Nevertheless, Mrs. Koch did a fine job and brought out many excellent points that could not easily be ignored by those who sincerely desire to make an informed decision, of the debate was deplorable. It was non-existant. You are guilty of being 100% biased. You gave no recognition to Mrs. Koch’s position (other than twice misspelling her nam r ). Do you thing that Right to Life’s position (part Page ten . of which is that the aborted baby is a separate, living, human being, and that the Bill of Rights should include the rights of all, including the unborn) is insignificant?Or is it that you think that by supressing those views you can control the sentiment of the university? Your hypocrisy testifies against you. By this act of negligence you have proven that you lack any degree of objectivity. Your irresponsibility in reporting such an important issue is an insult to the University’s intelligence. The saddest part of the debate itself were Mr. Baird’s slanderous remarks in attacking churches and dedicated individuals who maintain a respect for the life of the unborn. , The power of those who have economic interests in continued legalized abortions is tremendous and far reaching. This reality cannot be ignored. It is vital that individuals defend the rights of the unborn by contacting their Congressmen and Senators in support of a Human Life Amendment. The Spectrum .

The State Board of Elections is currently revising the mail registration form to include a section where voters can request absentee ballots be sent to them for up to four years, a reform with obvious benefits to the states more than 500,000 college students. “It is still the student’s responsibility to notify the Board of Elections if they move during the year,” said Assembly aid Dave Shiftman. “We can go only so far in simplifying the application — process.” The Board of Elections estimates an increase of 10-35% in the numbers of students voting through the reforms.

And remember, he who hesitates is lunch. more than 50,000 students were registered to vote, SASU discovered thousands of cases in which students never received ballots or applications after writing their county boards. Shiftman noted that “It is typical for a student to receive a ballot after the election has taken place.” Trustees call Carey’s Budget ‘socially regressive’ (SASU) The S UNY Trustees said last week that “the executive budget takes the University to the edge of what is manageable” and termed the TAP cuts as an increase in “out-of-pocket expenditures for the neediest students.” The effects of the Executive Budget of 1977-78 places the State University systems operating level at essentially the same level of last year. “With decreased support, the State University of New York is diminished in the number of students it can serve, in the services it can provide to the public, and in the knowledge it can create,” according to the Trustees statement. Governor Hugh Carey’s proposal to cut the Tuition Assistance Plan (TAP) by $41 million dollars was termed by the Trustees as a “socially regressive action.” The Trustees viewed this proposal as “doubly discriminatory.” Public college students and the economically disadvantaged families with net taxable incomes of below $10,000 will expect an increase expense of $100 if approved. The Trustees urged that “the reduction in State Aid (to Community Colleges) be a one-time occurance in order to protect the open enrollment concept and avoid program retrenchment.’ — Anti-student legislation killed in Assembly Labor Committee (SASU) Student unionists now working at several campuses on organizing projects can breath a collective sigh of relief following the death in the Assembly Labor Committee of a bill that would have prevented the collection of union dues from student workers:-’ Strongly opposed both by the AFL-CIO and SASU, the bill would have prohibited the imposition of union {lues on fully matriculated high school and college students. Republican Assembly Sponsor Robert D’Andrea said that students are often taxed with union dues while receiving less union benefits than do regular year round employees. Opponents of the bill cited that union, benefits can outweigh dues and that students in heavily unionized areas would be denied jobs if the bill became law. The Assembly Labor Committee, chaired by Sy Posner, also killed another piece of legislation considered hostile to students’ interests that would have denied unemployment compensation to campus workers employed part time. Student Association of the State University (SASU) opposed th£ bill and actively lobbied against it on the grounds that it would have an adverse affect on large numbers of persons at a time when jobs are so scarce and education costs high. SASU also noted that the bill would have violated the Federal Unemployment Tax Act and resulted in the loss of considerable federal revenues.

International Affairs �Indoor season • Buffalo falls behind in three way track meet by Jeff John Spectrum Staff Writer The time was last Saturday afternoon. The place was Center Track. The St. Bonaventure University’s occasion was a triangular track meet pitting underdog Buffalo against McComb College and St. Bonaventure. It was Buffalo’s last chance to score an upset victory during the indoor season and they almost pulled it off. When all the dust had settled virtually every Buffalo athlete had posted a seasonal best in one or more events. But McComb College won the meet with 46 points and Buffalo and St. Bonaventure tied for second with 34 points apiece. “The team did real well today. We set a lot of personal records,” said Buffalo coach Walter Gantz. According to Gantz if it had not been for a few unusual circumstances the Bulls would almost surely have emerged the winners. Gantz explained, “Of the 11 events contested, we weren’t able to enter three of them and it was in these three events that McComb scored 24 of its 46 points.” In those three events, the high jump, hurdles and pole vault, Buffalo has men who would have placed had they been able to attend Saturday’s meet. Shot put cancelled / in another unfortunate occurrence, Buffalo was sabotaged when St. Bonaventure announced it was cancelling the first event, the 35-pound hammer throw because their hammer was “broken.” Buffalo senior Walter Halady was expected to win the event easily having set a school record in the event only two weeks before. They couldn’t cancel the shot put event however as Halady brought his own shot which he used to win with a heave of 46 feet. Malady’s effort was only 3 feet off his own Reilly center record set two years ago. In the first track event, the 2-mile relay, Buffalo pulled off its biggest coup of the day. Gantz said, “We don’t have four half-milers capable of running a winning pace so 1 decided to have our top distance runners fill the last two legs on the relay. If when it came their turn to run we had a chance to win, then they’d race, otherwise they would simply jog it as a warm up.” The distance men would have to race in the mile and 2 mile runs as well. Strategy works On the first leg of the relay, senior Mark Rybinski, who had just rejoined the team after a four-week absence, surprised everyone by running stride for stride with the opposition. Rybinski handed the baton off to freshman Ken Dole who turned in an equally impressive performance which gave the distance men the green light to race. Sophomore distance runner Mike Fisher kept the pace going for the Bulls to set up senior distance runner John Ryerson who forged into the lead which he held all the way to the finish to give the Bulls their first relay victory of the season. Their time was 7:42, only 9 seconds off the all time Reilly Center record. Coach Gantz said of the runners’ performance, “They were really cookin!” Only minutes later the distance men were back on the track for the mile run. Showing no signs of fatigue after his relay performance, Ryerson won the mile with a 4:28 clocking, his best time of the season. Fisher also improved on his previous best indoor time as he finished 5th in 4:42. He was followed closely by sophomores Tom Pitchford and Kieran Lyons along with freshman Rob Schaefer. Best sprints In the sprints senior Paul Kubicki clocked his fastest time in the 45-yard dash when he finished second with a 5.1 effort. Kubicki was followed across the finish line by freshmen Bob Reis and Darren Hall who also recorded their top marks of the season. In the 600-yard dash senior Joe Woroby was barely nosed out at the finish after having led from the start. His time of 1:19 was an excellent clocking fpr the small St. Bonaventure track. Woroby was followed by freshmen Hall and Mark Hines. In the 1000-yard run Dole finished 2nd with a time of 2:24, nearly a 20-second improvement over his previous performance. Gantz said of Dole, “He ’s been getting stronger and stronger every week. In fact he would have won the 1000 today if it hadn’t been for a freshman’s mistake. He tried to pass on the inside oflce too often. He’s going to break some records before he leaves.” In the two-mile run the distance men were back on the track for the third time, but if they were tired, it didn’t show as Ryerson and Fisher finished 2nd and 3rd with times of 9:47 and 9:48. “These are excellent times,” said Gantz. Pitchford, who has been getting closer to the leaders each week, clocked his best ever indoor two-mile at 10:18. He was followed by Lyons and Schaefer who also had seasonal bests. The last event of the day was the mile relay in which a Buffalo foursome composed of Kubicki, Hines, Woroby and Reis narrowly finished second to McComb College. For the fourth straight week Reis posted the Bulls’ fastest leg reasserting his claim to the anchor man position. This Saturday, the New York State Indoor Track and Field Championships will be held at St. Lawrence University and although Buffalo’s athletic director, Ed Muto, has given the club team clearance to participate, it is doubtful anyone will go. According to Gantz the team’s meager budget just won’t allow it. The outdoor track season opens against Geneseo on April 16.

The North Atlantics is a tournament which attracts the top fencers in the east. It was created in the 1940’s by former Bulls’ fencing coach Sidney Schwartz.

Great literature it ain’t. It never was; it never pretended to be. The pulp magazines were nickel and dime and quarter affairs; they paid their writers poorly and slowly; they were printed on the cheapest of cheap paper. But they were ftin! Blatantly escapist, the pulp magazines provided inexpensive entertainment for every taste for about fifty years. Tony Goodstone’s nostalgic look back at the trashy magazines that flourished from 1890 to 1950 doesn’t just give the reader bits and snatches of the pulps, a page here and a page there; there are more than fifty stories and articles, all of them complete, and a hundred of the colorful, come-hither covers which enticed the buyers. The names of these writers will be surprisingly familiar to the readers of today; Robert E. Howard, Dashiell Hammett, Philip Wylie, Tennessee Williams, H. P. Lovecraft, Paul Gallico, and Ray Bradbury are among the many represented in The Pulps. This is a book to browse through, to pick up on a rainy day and while away the hours. 2 3 4 3 6 7 8 9 The Whole Sex Catalogue Bernhardt J. Hurwood Pinnacle Books $6.95 This exhaustive compilation aims at being nothing less than a WHOLE EARTH CATALOGUE of sex and sex paraphernalia, providing, as the Introduction states, “the kind of practical down-to-earth Sex information that anyone might be desperately looking for, anytime, anywhere.” The book offers copious information, arranged by subject, on virtually every type of available sex aid or device, details on how to get in touch with various different organizations, clubs, or what might be called special interest groups; as well in various states, brief articles on the history of various sexual practices, and a wide selection of photographs, diagrams, and 18th Century prints and drawings. Often glib and marred by occasional poor writing, the book is nonetheless valuable either as an information source or as an especially outrt coffee-table piece.—Gregory Feeley, l.M.I. Composition in Art Henry Rankin Poore Dover Publications Inc., $3.00 COMPOSITION IN ART is a reasonably priced paperback which provides a fundamental treatment of the mechanics of visual composition. This unabridged republication of Poore’s 1967 edition originally titled PICTORIAL COMPOSITION AND THE CRITICAL JUDGEMENT OF PICTURES includes 116 illustrations and 32 diagrams. By using Master and Modem painters to illustrate his points, Poore deals concisely and informatively with the varied technical aspects of visual organization. Topics such as balance by gradation, natural axes, and angular composition are discussed along with circular observation and light and shade. All of these topics and more are indexed to enable the reader to locate particular areas of interest. Poore’s discussions can be applied to any of the disciplines where visual communication is the subject. This book can serve as a practical guide for not only the fine artist but also the graphic designer and photographer.—l.M. I.

The defense author’s Bernstein depict them as having involved—hundreds were interviewed during the course of the books’s research—unless they guaranteed complete anonymity for all sources, and were prepared for their informants to later deny their own accounts. Whether these unusual measures were justified, and whether the facts presented in the book are true, will doubtless be debated by historians for years. of As it the book reads like a novel: narrative in style, with the day by day, sometimes hour by hour timing reminiscent a to the wall portraits; detective thriller. Undue attention has been focused on the more sensationalistic sections—Nixon talking praying with Kissinger on the floor of the Oval Office—but the importance of the book lies elsewhere. A gradual portrait of Nixon emerges: vague, self-occupied, obsessively deceptive and possessed of vast abilities to rationalize past actions and delude himself as to his own guilt. The portrayal of the men he surrounded himself with—and of their signal ability to assume that they own partisan interests were necessarily also moral ones, even when clearly illegal—will endure as a horrifying and cautionary reminder of the natural tendency of government bodies to redefine moral standards around their own needs unless constantly checked from the outside. The book includes, in addition to the 509 pages of text, a chronology, an appendix of the names and positions of everyone involved, a detailed index, and sixteen pages of photographs. This additional material is of great value in helping the reader to keep straight the maze of events and conflicting testimonies.—Gregory Fecley is, Alther’s KINFL1CKS reassures us that As we experience a nationwide love affair with everybody else’s adolescence, Lisa whatever sense of missing-out that might have supplant of This will things. most of us grew up feeling and doing the same kinds you thought yourself hiding were, or how protected no matter how hip you sixties, the furious been created by growing up in behind your heart of hearts. The marvelous thing about Lisa Alther’s very very funny book is that is puts social significance back into rhetoric. It is one thing to read about the revolutionary significance of soy bean casseroles; it is another thing to feel real about making one yourself. This book is a remarkable accurate portrayal of the times and thoughts of the people who participated in making the sixties such a social phenomenon. The indecisiveness of the characters is effectively portrayed as they suddenly immerse themselves in whatever is ideologically and emotionally valid for the times and then just as suddenly abandon these convictions to move on to something else. Ginny Babcock speaks to us in ways that Joyce Maynard, the self-proclaimed youth spokeswoman of the sixties never could. With every new inspiration and at every socially eventful turning point, Ginny throws herself into totally contradictory crowds and ways of living. Originally the Flag Swinger for Hullsport High and the girlfriend of Joe Bob Sparks, she defected to ride the back of the town hood’s motorcycle and to drink moonshine with him at the Bloody Bucket. But just as quickly and compulsively Ginny abandoned Clem’s greaser bouffant to discover equally relevant answers at the Worthly Womens School, learning from Miss Head new truths in recital halls, demitasse, and Descartes. It is a shame that Lisa Althers Ginny Babcock will be forever compared to Erica Jong’s Isadora Wing who did after all catalogue list after list of teenage neuroses, and ended up with an equally disastrous marriage. What makes Ginny more fascinating than Isadora is her range of experience which even the brassy Isadora only fantasized about. Ginny is more introspective and brooding and refrains from all of the self-congradulatory rhapsodies that Wing enjoyed. But whatever your prejudice, Ginny Babcock is a fascinating character. Whether it be from giving Blue Balls in Bibeland to riding Harleys with hoodlums and drinking home brew, Ginny will certainly put your own past histories into perspective.

(£0 *4) Z* CA • As Hitler’s Minister of Arms, Albert Speer was responsible for developing Germany as an “arsenal for Fascism!” He was also one of Hitler’s intimate associates, advising him on policy, and hence was one of the Third Reich’s infamous war criminals. For this he stood trial at Nuremburg and was sentenced to twenty years of imprisonment. During the time in prison he kept secret diaries, diaries that were eventually published in book form. Rather than writing a historical account that maybe cross documented to ascertain the accuracy of Speer s allegations, Speer has written a personal account ofhis experiences. Unfortunately the author rationalizes away far too much that is not immediately comprehensible and at the same time provides an often times too subtle examination of his own admitted criminality. The book’s highlights are reflected in Speer’s portraits of his ex-Nazi prison mates and his character study of Hitler. Making Ends Meet Barbara Howar Fawcett Crest /h * J) | , OC 7j The first twenty pages of this book have the potential for the makings of a great novel but Barbara Howar, true to her style, produced a typically trashy novel. For those ofyou who are trashoholics ,'Making Ends Meet is first rate. You will love it. Lily, the plastic heroine, becomes a Southern Belle only after her departure from the South. She comes to New York City, to the world of glitter and fashion, with the hopes of finding her “man” and of course her happiness. After succeeding in herfirst endeavor, Lily learns that the formulas of the past do not necessarily add up to future love and roses. Her marriage fails, and she is unable to find that non descript element happiness. Lily questions herself, her total existence and perhaps this is the only real part of the entire book. It is not however so real that it is intense enough to be heavy.

Gilbert Contributing Editor The Student Association (SA) is in trouble. Although club and service allocations rose dramatically this year over last, the mandatory fee monies that are expected to pay for them will probably not be available. The resulting gap can only be partially filled with $47,000 in surplus income, making it a virtual certainty that next year’s budget will be cut. Informed sources and an investigation by The Spectrum indicate both a shortfall this year of up to $20,000, and the need to slash next year’s budget by twice that amount, if not more. In a related matter, SA Treasurer Neil Seiden recently revealed that he probably will be forced to freeze the SA budget later in the semester, due to the slow influx of this semester’s fees. budget shortfall willforce cuts in SA budget said current Treasurer Seiden. “And we would most likely know about it by now, this late in the year.” Seiden said there was no way of determining how many students might not pay their fees. Enrollment plunge The heart of the problem is the in anticipated sudden drop revenue. This year’s projected mandatory fee income estimated last summer and based on last year’s enrollment statistics, is listed on SA’s computer budget printout as $913,832. But current enrollment figures obtained from the Office of Statistics in Hayes C indicate the actual fee income at only $871,616. 13,075 students have registered for both semester, down almost 800 from last year, and 618 full fee waivers have been granted, up several hundred from ’75—’76. “I don’t understand the increase,” commented Seiden. Assumed in the revised revenue estimate is that summer Anticipations lowered SA’s allocated budget this year enrollment will remain at last is almost $949,000. Anticipated year’s level, one which had been originally unaccountably above average. All however, revenues estimated at $990,000, will told, the drop in anticipated probably total no more than revenue is more than $42,000 $948,000, still leaving the illusion although the final amount will of a balanced budget. Predictions depend on the number of students of a shortfall are based on the who do not pay the fee, and on likelihood that many students the unknown number of summer may not pay their fee. “If [as an enrollees. example] only 200 students, for whatever reason, fail to pay their Some savings possible Forecasts are not all bad, bill, that is $13,400 we won’t get,” said former SA Treasurer however. With a lowered budget, Steve Blum berg in an interview disbursing expenses (the cost of last semester. Blum berg also raised handling the moneyO are less; in the possibility that expenses this case, two to three thousand leftover from last year will total may be saved. Secondly, last $20,000 more than is allowed for year’s leftover expenses, according in this year’s budget. “Last year’s to the Treasurer’s office, are running behind the surplus is mostly on paper,” he happily amount allocated for them in the asserted. “It hasn’t happened so far,” budget; and not ahead, «s was former predicted by once Treasurer Blumberg. Finally, it is not uncommon for some allocations to remain unspent, often thought they are counterbalanced by organizations that overspend. The exact chances of a deficit this year are therefore unknown; there is far too little information to be sure. In any case, the impact will be largely felt next year, should this possiblity come to pass, according to both of this year’s treasurers. Pessimistic regardless So the next year’s budget optimistic, is not situation regardless. Without the large and unless surplus income, enrollment picks up significantly, revenues next year may be only 871 in $900-$905 thousand mandatory fees and and an amount equivalent to $34,000 in “other income:” orientation fees, old bills finally paid to SA, and Coop loan possible Record — repayments. Since $948,000 is due to be will have to be large cuts for the next fiscal spent this year, there period, if the budget is to be brought into balance. An immediate note of hope is that a •$20,000 expenditure made this year to pay off a Record Coop debt (incurred when it was closed) is both a one-time allocation, not to be repeated next year, and eventually to be repaid. Seiden estimates that it will take at least five years, thus having a possible four-to-five thousand-dollar impact on the 1977—78 budget. With regard to a possible freeze of the budget later this semester, Seiden says the option will be exercised if “SA monies are being spent faster than fee monies come in from the administration, as they appear to be doing.” According to figures provided by Sub Board I Treasurer Arthur Lalonde, up until the last month of last semester, fee money arrival was down 15 percent from 1975-76. “The situation was caused by a $20—$30 thousand cut? lowering of the priority the But even without the Record adminstration gives us in Coop year’s disbursing the fee.

The SpECT^UM Vol. 27, No. 64 State University of New York at Buffalo Monday, 14 March 1977 GSA to cut $5000 off Sub Board budget In an uncirculated letter to Sub Board I Treasurer Arthur Lalonde, Jr., Graduate Student Association (GSA) Treasurer Mong Heng Tan announced last week, “This is to inform you that our [GSA’s] initial allocation of $40,000 to Sub Board I has been imperatively reconsidered. A new appropriation of $35,000 has been approved.” The move was made by the GSA Senate earlier in the year. Sub Board I is the incorporated student business which is responsible for most student-run enterprises on campus, including UUAB, Legal Aid Services, the Student Pharmacy, and all campus publications, including The Spectrum. Sub Board is primarily funded by the several student governments, but also generates substantial income itself in the form of ticket monies, etc. Clearly illegal Regarding the $5000 cut in GSA funding, Lalonde commented, “The action is clearly illegal. All student governments sign a contract with Sub Board, binding them to whatever amount they choose to allocate us at the beginning of each year. We plan our budget during the summer based on those figures.” But Mong Heng denied the claim. “I know of ho such contract. If there is one, I was never told about it by the previous [GSA] treasurer.” As to the need for the cut, Mong Heng gave two reasons. First, he said was a two thousand-dollar shortfall in surplus revenue from last year. “We expected $3000, and have received less than $700.” Second is a large decrease in enrollment causing sharply-lowered mandatory student fee, income. According to Hayes Hall statistics, 500 less graduate students registered this semester. As the student accountant, Sub Board is given all fee monies collected by the Bursar, later giving it to the respective student governments, who then fund Sub Board’s other functions. In actuality, Sub Board merely deducts its own allocation ($40,000 for GSA) before remitting the remaining fee money to the student governments. Given his opinion of the legality of GSA’s action, Lalonde was asked as to whether he would ignore the order to cut, and deduct the $40,000 anyway. “It wouldn’t matter if I did,” he said, “GSA will probably overspend $5000 this year and Sub Board will have to make up the difference. “To do that is an outrageous interference with our constitutional process,” Mong Heng asserted. According to Lalonde, should any unresolved dispute result from GSA’s action, it is ultimately up to the Vice President for Student Affairs Richard Siggelkow to decide. But Siggelkow, when asked of the possibility, declared, “The administration will most probably keep its hands clean of this affair. If they have some difficulty, they’ll have to take it to the courts.” Recognizes right to bargain SA won’t back GSEUstrike In its final meeting under the Schwartz administration, the Student Association (SA) recognized the Graduate Student officially Union’s (GSEU) right to bargain Employees collectively with- University administrators. SA, however, would not endorse the proposed GSEU strike and SA Executive Vice President Steve Spiegel GSEU members convene with the suggested incoming Delia administration to discuss the matter. The meeting was held Thursday in Haas Lounge. Not irresponsible Outgoing SA President Steve Schwartz opened the meeting by giving a small speech detailing what SA has and hasn’t accomplished this year, the problems still pending, and made recommendations to the new officers. He also commented on Michael Levinson’s proposal to replace stipends with course credit for students involved with student government. “It isn’t a bad idea,” Schwartz said, “but you wouldn’t get any quality students who could take 32 hours of classes taught by Lev.” SA also decided to file a civil suit against former Black Student Union (BSU) Treasurer John Lott, because of the $631 in BSU receipts which remain unsubstantiated. BSU President Walter Haddock explained he did not attempt to comply with the SA request that receipts be produced because Lott, who was in charge of finances, was expelled. Haddock further asserted that BSU will be able to present the missing receipts. “It’s not that we’re irresponsible or that we can’t count,” he said, “it was just a rebellious act.” A motion failed to have SA recommend to Ketter that Lott be allowed to return to campus for the purpose of meeting with SA representatives to substantiate the missing receipts. Student senator Dan Weisberg spoke of a report issued by the Student Association of the State University (SASU) concerning sending fourteen students’ to Albany for the purpose of talking to legislators about restoring TAP cuts. He said this could be the most important issue that SA has dealt with all year, and claimed “this is one battle we can’t afford to lose.” �A COLLEGE RING.

Somit emphasized that for the three years an increase in graduate stipends was the number one priority in budget requests by the University.

Somit explained that the net effect of this year’s budget will be reductions in student services, adding that in the past three years, some 250 already been positions have eliminated on this campus.

Gantz said his initial impression of Asante was positive. He thought that due to Asante’s youthful and amiable manner, he would be a fair and progressive chairman. by Geri Weinstein, Elaine Levenstein and Gary Sammartano Professors Walter Gantz and Chairman” Gerald Frye were reappointed to the Speech Communication Department, causing even more turmoil within the already distressed department. Vice President for Academic Affairs Ronald Bunn_ reinstated the two professors despite the opposition of Speech Communication Chairman Molefi Asanti and Social Science Provost Arthur Butler, both of whom advocated termination. Asanti claims that Bunn’s decision to reappoint Frye and Gantz was racially based. “If I were white my decision not to recommend the reappointment of Frye and Gantz would not have been questioned," he said. Many department members feel the friction between those supporting Asante and those not supporting him has been detrimental to the department. An atmosphere of tension permeates the faculty preventing meetings and stifling growth, according to several faculty, and therefore they claim the quahty of education has been affected due to the diversion of faculty energies into personal struggles for survival. Within a month, Gantz said, his attitude reversed and he then viewed Asante as a dictatorial chairman. Gantz doesn’t fit Gantz said the charges against him included “being arrogant with students, having low enrollment in his classes and not fitting in with the long range goals of the Department.” He contested these accusations, saying “his enrollment in graduate classes was average and in undergraduate classes was better than average. Gantz later said that Asante’s decision to suddenly alter departmental goals, by deemphasizir.g the area of Communication was a “way to get him out.” He also felt that arrogance should not be the scie determinant in judging the competance of a professor. One department member suggested that Asante’s relationship with the prominent black legislator Arthur Eve has served as a source of power in Asante’s handling of departmental matters. Butler responded that such a charge is totally unfounded and that there was “no way” that Eve was involved. Asante does not wish to publically disclose this file because “Asante is too much of a gentleman.” Some critics aid Asante attempted changes too quickly, which caused discomfort among the faculty. However, one faculty member said that, Associate Professor Gerald Goldhauber was a “manipulative man who desired Asante’s position.” This individual observed that persuasive tatics were used to sway support away from Asante. Another department member indicated that Asante does attempt to correspond with his faculty through memos which are frequently ignored. He added that Asante has a reputation for helping minority students, but not at the expense of academic standards. The conflict within the department makes students hesitant of signing up for courses with certain professors for fear of alienating an opposing professor, according to several faculty members. Associate Professor Charles Petrie said “that an administrator’s function is to administrate and that faculty and students in combination should make decisions. He added that Asante constantly reminds the department that he is the boss, that he makes the decisions, and that it is within his rights to make these decisions. He then charged, “My reputation has been slandered and I have been accused of being a racist and a poor professor.” Advantage lost Petrie was on the Search Committee that had been charged with the responsibility of selecting a Chairman. He felt at that time that Asante would be sensitive to the Frye a net loss problems of the department because he was a black who Frye said the University has lost money on him during had worked his way up through the ranks. He said, “I the last eight months, due to the personal battle he has thought this would work to our advantage.

In the past we have refrained from making any response to these articles which we felt incendiary, erroneous and slanderous. However, inasmuch as we have been asked by The Spectrum editors to make a statement we have decided that it is time to speak out. Our main concern is and always has been the interest of our students, any response to these articles which we felt were incendiary, erroneous and slanderous. However, inasmuch as we have been asked by The Spectrum editors to make a statement we have decided that it is time to speak out." Our main concern is and always has been the interest of our astudents. Any statement in the student press prior to this time would have simply added to a debate which should have been contained inhouse. Our graduate students replied to the charges made in several of The Spectrum articles last year.We appreciated their support but still maintained our silence as a matter of professional ethics. Any personnel recommendations which have come out of this department have been based on academic considerations. In one of the recent recommendations for termination of a faculty member our department’s vote was negative, the chairperson’s recommendation was negative, the Provost’s recommendation was negative, and the acting vice-president’s recommendation was negative. Vice President Ronald Bunn decided to overturn those recommendations and reappoint. In the other case the faculty voted to reappoint, the chairperson, using his perogative, recommended termination, and the Provost recommended termination. Vice President Bunn Recommended reappointment. In our judgment factors such as political motives, racism, anti-feminism, and negativism have blurred the academic considerations. It would not be possible to enlarge upon the innuendoes, anonymous racist literature, and backdoor councils without bringing further notoriety to our department because it will reveal the personal and professional unethical activities of some members of our department.

However, the Erie County Republican Chairman has declined to identify candidates under consideration for the designation. Already Griffin and Eve have been ruled out as a possibility for the Republican endorsement. So far Buffalo Police Capt. Joseph DiVincenzo is the only the declared candidate for for Republican endorsement Mayor. Capt. DiVincenzo, a 34-year veteran of the Police Department, was the unsuccessful Republican candidate for assemblyman last year in the 144th He District. lost to Democrat William B. Hoyt. Former Assemblyman Albert J. Hausbeck has also expressed interest in the mayoralty, and plans to announce whether he will run for that office or seek a GOP Stanley Makotvski for Councilman-At-Large. In a related development, University former District Councilman Charles A. Volkert has announced that he will not be endorsement a candidate for the GOP endorsement for mayor. Volkert, a realtor, disclosed his decision in a letter to Thomas Mackinnon. In taking himself out of the mayoral picture, Volkert said in an interview with the Buffalo Evening News that the prospects of his party electing a mayor in November were dim. “The only possibility that a Republican mayoral candidate could hope for is that- the makeup of the Democratic independent states would be in such a disarray that it would cause a great division among the voters.” He also mentioned that the economical position of the Erie GOP organization, asserting it “cannot render the support necessary for a candidate to be able to put forth the concentrated energy needed for a vigorous campaign.’’ Are you planning to go to LAW SCHOOL?

As a part of an international protest, this demonstration will express our dismay with the Canadian Government’s approval and maintenance of the seal slaughter in which 170,000 BABY Harp seals are doomed to tire clubs of the Canadian and Norwegian sealers. v It is the philosophy of BARC that no industry has the right to needlessly kill animal life. With regard to the seal kill, it is outrageous to us that the Canadians would conduct the merciless hunt. At the close of this year’s hunt, coupled with the past seal hunts, an entire generation of Harp seals will have been wiped out. All concerned faculty and students are urged to participate in this mass demonstration. The Buffalo community will be represented there, so should U of B.

There’s a brown mist at the top of the Pennsylvania Aenue elms where buds are swelling. As Jimmy Carter prepares for his latest spectacular, a walk down Fifth Avenue in New York on St. Patrick’s day this week, it’s nice to reflect that the crocuses are out again in Washington—they compensate for a lot of things. It was like this 44 years ago when another administration took over, Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal. But the mood was different. It was a Saturday, March 4, 1933; 13 million Americans were out of work and every bank in the country was closed. It’s a pity, in a way, that Mr. Carter couldn’t come over to the Mayflower Hotel on the eve of his two-hour White House “call-in” amazing Grand Reunion. Vice President performance. Mondale was supposed to come at 8 in place of Grand Reunion. Vice president Mondale' was supposed to come at 8 in place of the president to make a 5-minute speech, and the menu was adjusted from hot soup to fruit cup to accommodate an expected delay. But Fritz didn’t show either nor was there any formal White House message and Hubert Humphrey filled the gap Who were these amiable gaffers who spoke from the podium or hailed each other with a laugh and a sigh? They were the Hamilton Jordans, the Jack Watsons, the Stu Eizenstats of yesterday—Ben Cohen and Tommy the Cork, Rex Tugwell and Ewan Clague, Grace Tully and Jim Rowe and Leon Keyserling, once unfamiliar names who were feared, and debated, and analyzed by an anxious at the time. There were nearly 900 in the glittering ballroom. Will there be a reunion like this 44 years hence in 2021, and what will they say of Jimmy Carter then? For the sake of historical continuity and for what he might have soaked up through his pores, it is a pity that he didn’t look in before he faced the telephone callers the next day. “We are now in a time of national crisis once again,” said Ben Cohen to the crowd; “the time is ripe for a new New Deal.” He told of Roosevelt’s electrifying Fireside Chat, as he searched for that same mystical rapport with the people that Carter is seeking now: Walter Lippmann, originally a critic, wrote in wonder, “In one week, the nation, which had lost confidence in everything and everybody, has regained confidence in the government and in itself.” Could he get on with Congress? Here, for FDR, there was never any doubi. He called it into special session Thursday, March 9. That day he sent up an emergency bill to reopen the banks, pledging Federal credit. The House passed it unanimously after 40 minutes as members called “Vote! Vote!” In the Senate in white-faced rage Carter Glass heard Huey Long try in vain to amend it. It passed, 73 to 7. Roosevelt signed it an hour later. There were strong characters in those days, as Roosevelt’s labor-protection and welfare laws took shape. For no good reason 1 got to thinking about a familiar figure, John L. Lewis, head of the CIO. He was like a Shakespearian actor; the only figure in public life 1 ever knew who could rumble deep from his insides at the beginning of his speech a portentous, “Methinks,” and get away with it. I have known several forsoothers in my experience, but Lewis was the only me-thinker. Stooped and quavery, but eloquent still, Ben Cohen told the crowd what it already knew, “For most of us our New Deal years were the best years of our lives.” He ended with words which he said FDR added in his own handwriting to the last draft of a speech prepared for a Jefferson Jackson Dinner—words which, because of his death, were never delivered. “The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today. Let us move forward with strong and active faith.” The times are not as overwhelming now as 44 years ago and in a way that makes it harder as well as easier for President Carter. There is no banking crisis that he can conquer by a wave of his hand. He won by a narrow margin and did little to put individual Democratic Congressmen into his debt. He is still unfamiliar to the public, but that unfamiliarity is disappearing rapidly. The two-hour telephone call-in performance, despite all the advance doubts expressed in this column, was a personal triumph. The president showed a simplicity, courtesy and sympathy in dealing with unrehearsed random questions that was arresting, and a quiet self-confidence that was even a little frightening. This chief executive has grasped the throttle of power without any doubt and knows how to reach the public, if he has to, over the heads of Congress. Yet there are reservations still. After the telephone performance Mr. Carten said, “I like it. The questions that came in from the people all over the country are the kind that you would never get in press conferences. The news people would never raise them, like the Ottawa Indian question.” This is certainly true, as the White House press conference with reporters Wednesday-promptly last demonstrated. Dialing a president about a denial of veterans’ benefits, if you are one of the lucky 42 who get through as 9 million try, is a public relations smash. It helps in the business of government, too, to the degree that the President’s demeanor inspires confidence. But it is all medium and no message. It is not the tough professional give-and-take over major issues that arises at a press conference. It is, rather, the kindly response of a father to his children. This is so even when the questions are evidently critically inspired. They deepen the presidential personality cult. There is a hunger to trust the president, to believe in the office, to suspend judgment, to reverence the shrine. It is a little unfair to raise these matters when Jimmy Carter is so evidently sincere and carries off the feat so agreeably, but soon showmanship must yield to real battles. It is questionable whether Roosevelt could have put over the New Deal with a staff as inexperienced and provincial as Carter’s. Some of them seem to regard Congress as a kind of Georgia legislature. FDR’s gnome-like secretary, Louis Howe, was born in Indianapolis, Marvin McIntyre in Kentucky, Steve Early in Virginia, Bill Hassett in Northfield, Vt., Rex Tugwell in New York. By contrast the Carter staiff is extraordinarily homogenous, with a relatively narrow "viewpoint, and power apparently gravitating to Hamilton Jordan. They are quick learners, fortunately, and are beginning to feel that instead of being anti-Establishment they are now the Establishment.

This season has been the biggest turnout of players ever, with 30 teams competing, and approximately 20 players on a team. To keep the games competitive' and fair, the teams were broken down into 2 leagues. The A league consisted of all male players who were quite competent in skating and in most cases had played hockey in competition before and there was a lot of spirit and proficient stick handling in this league. The B league consisted of teams that were more interested in the recreational aspect of the sport. Quite a few of the players were beginning skaters and quite a few had not even played the game before, but this did not dampen their spirits. “Some of the B league players skated like they were in the Stanley Cup Playoffs,” said Jack Kaminska, director of "intramural hockey. There were also two women involvedJn the B league, down from five from last year. The women were good skaters and could really hold their own on the ice,” Kaminska said. The with Bowling Green University marked his best effort. “Even though we lost 10-0 in that second Bowling Green game, I blocked an awful lot Of shots, which I like to do.” Koeppel, the offensive leader amongst the blueliners, had little difficulty in remembering his best games. He cited the two games the Bulls played in the Elmira Tournament, and there is little wonder why. Both he and Scaringi were named to the Tournament All-Star Team, quote an honor for the freshman Koeppel. “Playing in the Elmira Tournament with Scaringi was just tremendous. We beat Oswego 6-4, and I remember I scored the winning goal on a power play,” said Koeppel. r— set up two others, including the game winner by Ray “Tuffy” Gruarin. “The was Union game definitely the high point of the season.

While the Union game was the high point for the team, each of the players had their own feelings regarding their individual- best performance. Gemmer’s best Gemmer felt that the season’s finale was his “finest hour,” despite the fact that the team lost 4-3, and yielded 52 shots on goal. “The last game of the season against Western Michigan was the best game I played all year.” Gemmer’s support Statistics belief, and of special note is a two on one break that Gemmer broke up with a clever poke check. “The Lake Forest game was the best for me,” commented Trumpfheller. “Paul (Pitman) and I must’ve had eight points between us, and they didn’t get very many shots on our net.” Actually, the two defensive partners combined for six points and allowed the Foresters just 23 chances to score, enabling goaler John Moore to register his first shutout of the season. the final is team is best. answered which question to be Tomorrow night in the Tonowanda Sports Center, As For Pitman, a 10-0 drubbing at hands of nationally ranked Sweet revenge That first game, a 5-4 victory, marked the first time that Union College had ever been defeated by a Division II team. The victory was sweet for a variety of reasons, aside from the fact that it was a win over a divisional rival. For starters, the victory provided revenge for the Bulls, revenge they had been seeking for over a year. Last season, a mass brawl erupted between the two teams which saw Scaringi taken to the hospital for a concussion after being smashed in the head by the stick of one of Union’s wingers.

Possibly the best team in the league is the Dents at 6-0, which consists of dental students and faculty. They finished first in the regular season last year but lost in the finals of the playoffs. This year they will try to win it all. The team centers around Eddie Ambis who played three varsity seasons at Cornell. The win will not be easy, however. Dent’s opponents, the Bunnies, (5-1) are a tough, well balanced team. The main cog of their machine is their goalie, Larry Amoros. The Bunnies are the underdogs, but it should be a good fight to stop the Dents. Four teams from the B league are in the finals. Perhaps the best are the Jawortniks (6-0), who will play the Birdie Bay Bombers (4-0-1). The Flying Porpoises (6-0-1) will play Pharmacy (4-0-1).

Buffalo Blades last season, and suggested to Pitman that Wright could help him out at this University. With Geneseo State College as his only other choice for post-secondary education, Wright’s influence was all that Pitman needed to become a student at Buffalo. Likewise, MacLean, Vesona and the rest of the crew were initially contacted by the Bulls’ coach, and he convinced them that this is where they belonged. Koeppel on the other hand, was already a registered student at Buffalo when he was told about a meeting for the varsity hockey team, and the rest, as they say, is history. He walked onto the team and into a starting job. Although many of the Bulls’ top performers are graduating this year, the entire defense corps should be around for the next four years, and that is good news for Buffalo hockey. After all, it would be very hard to find such a bumper crop of defensemen all over again. — ODD COUPLE AUDITIONS Monday March 14, at 6 pm in 231 Norton Monday, March 14, at 8 pm 325 Fillmore (Ellicott Complex) OR CALL 831-5112 Dan Brock UUAB — — AUJ1U30JJ OpSTCAl GRAND OPENING) HEADQUARTERS FOR • • • I , - CONTACT LENS SUPPLIES EMERGENCY REPAIRS THE LATEST IN EYEWEAR OPENING SPECIALS for Faculty & Students 1. fitting of hard contact lenses $100.00 2. fitting of soft contact lenses $200.00 3. tinting of plastic lenses $5.00 4. of glass lenses $6.00 *vacuum coating, including "mirror" tint - 13 2 5 MILLERSPORT HWY.

The real world More jobs for women and engineers this year This year’s college graduates, especially women and engineering students, may look forward to better employment prospects than any graduating class in recent years, according to data compiled and released last week by the College Placement Council for its midyear Salary Survey report. The council found, however, that prospects may still be limited for many graduates, particularly those in nontechnical disciplines. The survey relies on data submitted to the council from 160 colleges and universities throughout the country and is based on job offers, not acceptances, made to college students from September to June. It covers job offers in a broad range of areas, except teaching.

When the women's basketball team opened their home season at the beginning of the semester, new coach Liz Counsins called four of her five timeouts in the first half, and allowed Regina Frazier to pick up four fouls in the first half. I thought to myself, “Oh, boy—we’re in trouble.” I couldn’t have been more wrong, more wrong. The improvement the team has made since the start of the year under coach Cousins has been remarkable. by Paige Miller Sports Hditor A week ago, the Frisbee team scheduled to host a tournament at the Bubble. They wound up hosting it, but not at the times they had. planned. games were the Originally, for and Saturday scheduled Sunday morning at 9 and 11 a.m. However, the night before the tournament was supposed to begin, the Frisbee team was notified of a mix-up in scheduling and the times were changed to at night. Because some of the teams involved could not play Sunday night, (they had to begin their trip home before the games could be played) the games were moved to Sunday afternoon, when the Bubble is normally open for recreation. The Frisbee team was that the obviously upset Recreation had Department messed up their tournament. And the people who wanted to use the Bubble on Sunday afternoon were also upset. And both had legitimate gripes. The whole thing should not have happened. The Frisbee team deserves better and the students at this university deserve better. was • Government and the governed A few words about non-sports subjects; in my four years here, I’ve come to expect a few things about the Administration. For one thing, every decision they make seems to have the attitude that the students here exist for. the Administration’s benefit, instead of the Administration existing for the student’s benefit. The recent controversy about lack of space in the new Norton Hall for students is a perfect example. You can' be sure that the Administrators will get all the space they need. I dare 'any administrator to come out and say, “1 am working in the student’s interest” And if any administrator does, then I say prove it; what have you done to see that students get the space in the new union that they require? And while I’m on the subject, let’s discuss the business of funds for the Amherst Campus. The legislature, as I was always taught, had the power to spend tax review, it appropriated money for construction of the Amherst Campus. The Division of the Budget (DOB) has refused to spend it. What right does DOB have to hold up this money? Oh, I’m sure it has some legal right, but DOB has no elected officials (as the legislature does, and DOB is making a farce of the democratic of government by concept consent of the governed. Tire Founding Fathers of our country would be outraged. Good bless America. •V M Circolo Italiano Yea, Hicksville When Dennis Delia takes over The report shows that at the bachelor’s degree level, 49 percent as Student Association (SA) more job offers were reported than in the same period a year ago.

The agreement provides for a varying percentage increase depending on members’ base annual salary on September Leonard Kershaw, assistant director for the State Department of Employee Relations, said “If it is approved, appropriations will be made through the supplemental budget or by submitting a bill to the state legislature.” The contract also provides special considerations when a layoff takes place; recognizes librarians as faculty with full academic status; keeps those visiting professors and lecturers on a preferred list for placement in other capacities when job openings occur; and provides for improved grievance procedures, according to the UUP spokesman in - 1. Albany. range of increases is reported by the Associated Press to be from five to one-half percent in the lowest ranks down to three percent for those at the top. Those members at the higher pay scales will receive a greater raise than those at the bottom. The Criticism Buffalo UUP representative Dr. Charles Fall said that an individual earning between $6000-$6999 will receive $330 more; those between $10,000 and $10,999 will receive $550 more; someone in the $15,000 range will receive $710 more; those between $20,000-$20,999 will receive $840 more; those in the $25,000 range will receive $930 more; and those earning $30,000 and more will receive an extra $1,350. The second half of the raise is a base salary increase of either $300 or $250, to be effective April 1, 1978. Those who will receive $300 are professors, associate professors, associate librarians, PR-4’s and PR-3’s. The $250 will go to assistant professors, instructors, senior assistant librarians, PR-l’s and PR-2’s. By the time both increases have been handed out, a worker now receiving $7000 will have received a total increase of 10.5 percent; an individual at $15,000 will receive 7 percent more; a person now earning $25,000, about 5 percent; and those at the highest salary ranges, slightly under 4 percent. The Oneonta chapter president of UUP said that he will support ratification of the contract. He would have liked the union to have provided within the agreement an “orderly salary schedule” for employees. “Few university systems don’t have salary schedules and this adds to the confusion within ours,” he said. The spokesman criticized the salary level increase in April because “it actually is an increase for 5 months, not for the entire year. A person will only receive five-twelfths of $300 or $250 for their annual salary.” Urtiversity of Buffalo senior goaltender John Moore began Working out with the Buffalo Sabres of the National Hockey League (NHL) this past Wednesday and will continue to do so for the remainder ot the Sabres’ 1977 campaign. “Basically, I’m practicing with the Sabres, and will be throughout the course of this year. I’ve been given a chance to go to [training] camp with them next fall,” said the ex-Bull netminder. Should Moore play well during the course of this year and again at Sabres’ camp in September, then he stands a reasonable chance of the to the NHL. making it The opportunity arose through the efforts of Bulls' hockey coach Ed Wright and Sabres’ scout John Anderson, who had conferred with one another for the past few weeks. Anderson eventually went to Sabres’ General Manager George “Punch” Imlach with a good report. Moore was told that he would be the Sabres’ third goalie behind hurt then there’s a chance Don Edwards and Bob Sauve. If and serve as backup'. that Moore will dress Moore said of his first practice Wednesday. “I nervous,” was “1 mean here’s these people who I’ve seen on tv and here 1 am sitting across the dressing room from them. I got there [the practice] early, and the players came over and introduced themselves. They were all really nice, from [Sabres’ coach] Floyd Smith down on to all the guys. They tried to make me feel at home,” explained Moore. “The biggest difference [between college and professional hockey] is the speed of the game. Of course, guys like Rick Martin can shoot, but in college you had a second to set yourself; here, if you.hestitate the puck’s past you.” The Sabres currently have three goaltenders on the roster; Gerry Desjardins, presently sidelined with an eye injury; rookie sensation Edwards; and Sauve, a first-round draft pick two seasons ago. It is not , likely that the Buffalo brass would bypass a first round pick for someone just out of college. It is more probable that Moore, providing he plays well, will be dispatched to one of the Sabres’ minor league affiliates to gain experience. Moore admitted that he has a lot to learn. A graduate of Leamington School in Delhi, Ontario, Moore played in 90 games for the Bulls, and set numerous Buffalo goaltending records in the process.

They just “mean” what they mean to an individual who fabricates (“sees”) a meaning there. And now we’re in an even wofse condition for talking. Solomons disavows any intention in his work other than to deal says with “motion, mainly.” Yet personal meanings do or assert creep in, rather themselves with various degrees of vigor. For instance, Solomons was at one time an arefittec't; he spoke of the interesting architecture of the Ellicott Complex and how it may have influenced his thinking day; movement that on passive as choreographer stimulant-receptor translating “life experience” into “dancing.” In this sense, it is possible to speak of a range of meaning conditioned by everything from his cup of coffee in the morning to the Zeitgeist itself. It’s not likely that in the trio for two men and a woman, Solomons was dealing with, say, the coming election in India. Meaning, the meaning fabricated by the young woman sitting next to me at her first dance concert, the meaning seen by the newspaper reviewer in the back row, is conditioned. What Solomons seems to have done then, is an ideological gesture of sorts: he isn’t going to worry about his conditioning. • To exist is all “I’ve got nothing profound to say,” he said, and the Cornell Theater audience applauded, not sarcastically, but rather with the sense that we have all had enough soul rending, soul exposing, soul searing, and that it is possible to see with a renewed directness and simplicity. “The problem,” writes Jill Johnston of Cunningham, “was to accept the human state in its simple condition of existing. To walk across the stage the way one walks across a street, or to stand still the way one stands- when there is no place to go, seemed like a bad way to be human. The cultural burden is too much with us. Walking across the street is not enough. There has to be a goal on the other side. Where are we going and what are we doing?” Dancing here is no longer acting, in the sense of imposing a meaning, a role that needed to be translated into a presence. The role doesn’t exist; it’s just the dancer now, moving the way one moves when there is no place to go and there is a movement concept to realize moment to moment, so that it’s not even just the dancer, it’s the movement. “How long does it take to do —continued on page 4-* « �Family Planning and Pregnancy Counseling by Denise Stumpo Spectrum Staff Writer Somewhere on campus is a woman who thinks she might be pregnant. Afraid to admit it to herself or others, she pushes the possibility to the back of her mind where it lurks, casting uncertainty over her days and young’ nights. “What really frightens me is that she may not understand how it happened,” sayd Ellen Foley, who feels that ignorance and about birth misconceptions control abound even today. Ellen is director of the Family Planning Center (Birth Control Clinic) at 356 Squire (Norton) Hall. Sharing the same office space is the Human Sexuality (Pregnancy whose Counseling)- Center, co-directors Jamie Westfall and Stephanie Aronow report, “A lot of our pregnancies are ill-informed about how they got that way.” Both services were formed to help students in dealing with their sexuality. They opened up under the funding of Community Action Corps (CAC) in 1971, when lack of proper facilities saw counselors performing pregnancy tests in the office. In 1974, the Family Planning and Human Sexuality Centers became part of the University Health Care Division and were taken under Sub-Board’s wings. Dedication The directors are not exactly happy about the euphemistic titles; “Family Planning” and “Human Sexuality.” “Two years ago we tried to assert ourselves as Birth Control and Pregnancy Counseling,” recounts Jamie, “but the Board of Directors didn’t go for it. They don’t want it to sound like students are getting pregnant or receiving birth control University.” To at the compensate, the preferred names are put in parentheses after the official ones. “We don’t want to it and threaten our push existence,” explains Stephanie. “It’s vital that we stay open.” This air of dedication seems to pervade the offices which are staffed by volunteer counselors, all of them students. Applicants are interviewed each semester and chosen according to their level of commitment. “We look for objective, empathetic people,” Jamie says. “It would be difficult to have a counselor who is either anti- or emphatically pro-abortion.” Counselors are required to attend several training sessions including those in Anatomy, Physiology. Hormone Fertilization, Birth Cycles, Control Methods, Abortion, Pregnancy, Sexuality and Health, and Techniques Counseling Rape/Sexual Assault. “Last semester we paid Planned Parenthood $500 to come in and train our counselors, but this year we’re doing it ourselves,” says Jamie, adding proudly. “We are as The Spectrum is published Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the academic year and on Friday only summer by The during the Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc.

Circulation average: 15,000 well trained as we possibly can be without being professionals.” It takes two The two Services have a combined force of 71 counselors, twelve of them male. While frequent calls and visits are made by men, the majority of the centers’ dealings are with women, a fact which puts them on the defensive. “We are accused of being in existence only for women,” states Stephanie, “which of course is ridiculous. It takes two to tango. For every female we deal with directly, we reach a male indirectly.” Anyone who comes in the offices is welcome to an array of free pamphlets and booklets covering virtually all aspects of sexuality. While only equipped for short-term crisis counseling, the centers offer resources and referrals in many areas, including sterilization, child Care, gynecology, medicaid, obstetrics and artificial insemination. The Control Clinic and Birth Pregnancy Counseling undergo a supervision bi-weekly by Center Harriman Drop-In counselors, who are professionals. “It’s part of our educational program,” explains Jamie. “They keep us updated on counseling techniques.” Minimal costs Department. Difficult position Approximately 600 women had pregnancy tests on campus last year. When a woman comes in for a test, she is counseled privately on symptoms, date of her last period, etc. and then given a test tube in which to collect a urine sample. If she brings the sample along with $4 to the lab in Michael Hall before 10 a.m. the next day, she can receive the test "We results that afternoon. appointment an and require counseling session to give out the results,” informs Stephanie. “People resent the fact that we won’t give them over the phone. But we can’t chance it we run a confidential service.” totally About 50 percent of the tests — Both services stress that they completely confidential. are “Still, the old attitudes about sex keep people from coming in,” says Stephanie. Ellen agrees: “There’s a lot of denial going on. Women think if they don’t use birth control, then sex is unplanned, and therefore not a source of guilt, she said. Jamie feels that it is harder to get women to come in for a pregnancy test. “Then they have to say to themselves and us, ‘Not only did I have sex, 1 was foolish about it.’” Some 800-1000 students come to the clinic each semester to seek a birth control method. First they must attend an introductory class in which counselors explain basic reproductive anatomy, the pelvic exam and methods of birth control. The classes are limited to eight persons, allowing for a relaxed and personal atmosphere. “I thought the class was very good,” said one freshman. “I’m sure some resented it but it was good for the rest who didn’t know a lot about birth control.” Clinics are run according to demand, up to four nights a week at Michael Hall. Seven dollars is required to cover the cost of the exam. The women are counseled individually on their medical history, and what method is best NOW! prove negative. What if the test reveals a pregnancy?“We ask her what she plans to do. We present her with all sides,of the situation, and give her names of doctors and agencies to see,” says Stephanie, stressing, “Ours is a purely informative and supportive role; we do rot take part in the decision making.” Misconceptions The majority of positives choose to have an abortion. “WeTe caught in a double bind situation,” relates Jamie. “We don’t want people to think we’re an abortion clinic or pro-abortion, yet because we serve a university, we are involved mostly with abortion referrals.” Eighty percent of an abortion cost is cbvered under Student Health Insurance (SHI) if the woman has already received $100 worth of services through the plan. This would pay $128 of the average $160 abortion.

Tax forms will be filed Monday through Friday from 1-5 p.m. and Tuesdays until 7:30 p.m. When asked how the program was working, Scott Sklar, Legal and Welfare Coordinator for CAC replied, “It’s working well so far with a good turnout, but we expect a lot more as it gets closer to April.” Forms will be filed by student volunteers who have been trained by the IRS at no cost to the University. Programs such as this will be in operation throughout the city as the result of the federal government’s plan to make free tax return service accessible to the people who can’t afford the high cost of —. accountants. ■ ■ CAC is also in the planning stage of instituting a hot line in accordance with the Erie County Holding Center.

This special line would be open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. and would be in constant touch with the Erie County Bar Association.

The State Department of Transportation promised full consideration of socio-economic and environmental factors in making transportation concerning construction of the Expressway. According to Pat Giagmacova, Program Coordinator for the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, “The expressway will not be going through a virgin forest; the area in which it will be located has already experienced sufficient urbanization and environmental degradation. Construction of the expressway will have minimal environmental impact on existing conditions.” Giagmacova also explained that the expressway will not go through the wet lands situated around Ellicott Creek as originally planned. The expressway will circumvent the wet lands in accordance with the “Wet Lands Preservation Act” of 1975. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation claims that “although highways present a direct conflict with wildlife, their development can create areas that are both biologically productive and visually attractive.” The Town of Amherst, the New York State Urban Development -Corporation (UDC), and this University’s administrative boards have overwhelmingly growth projections for both the Amherst Campus and the UDC Audobon projections for the Amherst area and the geometrical inadequacies of existing roadways. On the other hand, the Amherst Conservation Advisory Council feels that the expressway is no longer necessary due to the severe drop in growth projections for both the Amherst Campus and the UDC Audabon Community. Their chief environmental concern is the noise High pollution the expressway will inflict on nearby Sweet Home School and Willow Ridge Elementary. The State Department of Transportation has said that the installation of a 200 foot-wide “buffer strip” between the proposed pavement edge and the right-of-way line may limit traffic noise impacts of in these localities. They also claimed that the total annual emissions nitrogen of from and oxides hydrocarbons, monoxide, carbon expressway traffic will have little or no significant impact on the environment. The Lockport Expressway will eventually be coordinated with the proposed Niagara Frontier “Metro” Rapid-Transit System and the Regional Bus Transit Network. Federal Capital funds in the amount of $269 million have already extending been approved for construction of a light rail transit system to Buffalo downtown in the Memorial Auditorium 6.4 miles between been so the Main Street Campus.

Whatever may be the merits of the position presented by Gilbert Lawrence in Monday’s The of the University Spectrum, the refusal administration to allow examination of the “Spiegel” hearing transcript is inexcusable. The racial charges resulting from that incident are by themselves sufficient to give the University community the right to know the full story, and the transcript is vital to that right. But clearly a policy of full disclosure is alien to an administration that operates in constant fear of its own shadow. We should realize by this time not to expect more from the Hayes Hall bureaucrats who can’t even muster enough intelligence and competence to defend the University and its programs to officials in Albany. Mitchell Regenbogen Big-time politics The Israel To the Editor. Behold, O students, the clouds of the heavens have parted, and our candidates have appeared, ready to shoulder our burdens, for a fee. It seems as if big-time politics has overtaken U.B. with a tour-de-force. Firstly, what are the S.A. guidelines as to the permissable distance that an election advertisement may be from a voting booth? From my observations, it seems that there are none at ail, banners are located directly for in Porter around the corner from the booth, while at the Student Club some signs were on the wall not more than two feet from the booth. Whatever the reasons, they are not excusable. Some sort of isolation is necessary, or we might as well have flashing neon “Vote me into Office” signs surrounding the polls. Certainly, I can proclaim myself a vigilante and go on a sign-destroying crusade, but preventative medicine seems more attractive. Secondly, there is an old maxim that goes, “It takes money to make money.” In light of the multitude of printed pamphlets, posters, and even campaign “newspapers,” where is this money coming from? If S.A. is distributing money, it certainly doesn’t look very even. On the other hand, if the money is coming out of the candidates’ pockets, should the one with the biggest budget win? To the Editor. I wonder what were your feelings when publishing a quarter of a page ad in The Spectrum of March 4th, through which the Israel Information Lev speaks To the Editor: This is the story of Smart Fart Abscond, concerned stew dent at SUNYAB, circa 1975-77.

Abscond was in the assembly then a Student Association officer in the S.A. under Mischelle Smiff.

It read: “We the students of Dr. Rosenblatt’s Statistics 101 class wholeheartedly support the sentiments and feelings expressed in the letter written by L. Chmielowiec, D. Delia and J.S.U. appearing in The Spectrum March 9, 1977.” The letter of petition was signed by eighty-seven (87) students of the-class. Space doesn’t permit The Spectrum to list their names. Trying to find out about this case has been a difficult task. Those administrators with the knowledge tell me that they aren’t at liberty to discuss iv at this time, as this case is presently going to count.

Sub Board One, inc. is the student owned and operated educational purposes corporation that sees itself as a cross between Scrooge and a caraciture of Uncle Sam that comes out looking dirty old man saying, “We don’t exactly throw your money around.” What these so called corporate managers do do is give people like S.F. Abscond the opportunity to go and give the students’ $67.50 activities fee away to their friends and colleagues as they see fit. Accroding to their whim. This is what Smart Fart Abscond the 1977 appointed Asst. Treasurer of Sub Board One, Inc. did. To make a long dull sad story short right before Christmas vacation, fhe present holier than thou student administrator assistant treasurer of Sub Board One, Inc. took it upon himself to award various stipended coordinators in Norton Union a little extra Xmas bonus (average $40) because after all that’s benevolent power. Politics as it’s played in - Norton Hall. Did you know the president of S.A. gets $2000 a year salary right off the top of the activities fee for getting elected president of the S.A. His student parking sticker is number one. This is more obscene than Hustler magazine, the way SUNYAB S.A. leaders are hustled and hustle their brethren. Obviously an S.A. nebbish getting a $2000 salary out of the student activities fee will be loth to prosecute a fellow traveler for giving away $400 to those people Smart Fart felt deserved it. Just as Rich Korman, the $1850 per year editor-in-chief of The Spectrum is loth to print this and looked ahead with his newspaper editorship to secure himself a position next year with Jack Anderson. Instead of putting out a decent newspaper he suppressed local talent, student’s political efforts and important historical writings relevant to our time and the University. Rich Korman respects the SUNYAB community so much he fills his Spectrum almost exclusively with College Press Service drivel written in Colorado and “Punk News by New York Jews.” A question presents itself that is purcursor to the issue at hand. Is S.F. Abscond the same asst, treasurer of Sub Board who tried to purchase (under the table) for $5000, the one lone house owned by the ‘now defunct. SUNYAB Students’ Housing Corporation, Scholastic Housing, Inc. This was a house the students paid around $25,000 for!! Is this not the very same Smart Fart Abscond and if it is why then (last summer) didn’t the corporation’s board members (students) and if not them, then the executive director, who is employed by the board to manage and run the day to day affairs of the corporation, recognize the high blown stink that was before their eyes and emanating from the hoary mouth of Smart Fart Abscond. And where was the corporation’s $17,000 per year executive director (paid from where else? the activities fee!) when these unauthorized Christmas bonus checks were written as his $17,000 per year signature appears on these checks. If a student appointee of the corporation takes it upon himself to set his own policies and award student monies as he saw fit the laws and that state’s guidelines are both clearly being broken because we are talking about corporate embezzelment. Would you want to hire a guy like S.F. Abscond to be the comptroller of your corporation? He might not like the way you part your hair or your race, color, religion holier than thou might come in some morning and walk off with $100,000 or just quietly milk you over a 20 year period. It’s a short sad painful ugly story that we are producing here at SUNYAB. The next generation of Haldemans and Erlichmans and S.F. Abscond is one of them. S.F. Abscond is the same student who negotiated with Dr. Ketter over the Record Co-op, and during that time kept the students from ever legally assembling to discuss the matter. S.F. Abscond sold the Record Co-op concept down the drain in Dr. Ketter’s office; and cancelled UUAB’s movies last year, and cancelled out an edition of New World Orchestra by giving $400 in Christmas bonuses to his friends. And do we want to graduate him? Fact of the matter is, the Student Judiciary is going to get this case to determine the accuracy in depth of these charges (was it $400 or $600?). But before they prosecute S.F. Abscond should be given the opportunity to resign (instead of his record showing dismissal) and most importantly the money should be replaced. - — Lev, The Cosmic Wrapper Michael Stephen Levinson �m mg H —Vazquez Bonnie Rcritt Entertainer down to earth enough to include audience in her performance by Barbara Komansky Spectrum Music Staff No doubt Bonnie Raitt is one of the only widely received women performers in rock today to name Robert Johnson as one of her important influences. In her performance Sunday at Shea's Buffalo, the fact that she was a student of the style of this great bluesman was evident. It was also evident that since her blues-dominated inception, she has gracefully, gradually expanded into every style, from R&B to reggae, to straight folk to rock and roll. Her largest influence at this point seems to be Jackson Browne, and her show Sunday night reflected that and many others of the idiom. Her expertise on the bottleneck is admirable and especially rewarding to see in a woman performer. But this does not discount her vocal agility. Bonnie demonstrated her mastery of ballads as never before, and is as vibrant as on her blues delivery. Despite this talent, though, she obviously still prefers to rock out in concert. Her trademark, an old hollow-body gibson, received a good work-out on the majority of the numbers. The first two numbers, "I Can't Make Love" and "Good Enough" were perfect examples of what Ms. Raitt prefers her concerts to sound like. Her band, featuring guitar, piano, drums, and the ever-present Freebo on bass and tuba help her to rock steady with out overpowering her. It is a definite obstacle for a woman to be backed by men exclusively she can easily lose much of her power and control. But Bonnie is able to maintain both of these. She has enough grit to keep her dilivery interesting. — Sweet and melancholy Bonnie's respect for Jackson Browne has evidently been growing since she recorded “Under the Falling Sky." Sunday night she performed "I Thought I Was A Child," a regular in her repertoire, and "My Opening Farewell," which has been released on her new album. Sweet Forgiveness. Also performed from this album was Paul Siebel's "Goodnight Louise," and a ballad of Bonnie's own composition. If the diversion of the show is indicative of the quality of this record, it should be as much of an achievement as her last recordings. Bonnie's best deliveries of the night came during the point where only two members of the band played to provide her with just an accent, rather than a musical wall to lean on. It was in this manner that she performed the numbers of her mentors Fred Mac Dowell, Johnson, and Skip James. "Write Me A Few Of Your Lines" segueing into "Kokomo," as it does on "Takin' My Time," highlights what Bonnie first earned her reputation for: straight blues, bottlenecked with a piece of side-walk-ground glass. Bonnie's voice has a very sweet and melancholy quality, which heightens the soulful flavor of her guitar. Same," an "I She kept this flavor as her band rejoined her for Feel The Chris Smither ancient classic by One point Bonnie kept stressing throughout the show was the necessity to retire some old favorites temporarily. This keeps them fresh for other tours. So instead of playing "Love Has No Pride" for the eight millionth time, she brought back "Wah She Do Go," telling about the woman's necessity for an outside man. Her whole crew, including sound, light, and equipment men and managers, joined her onstage as an extended percussion section. They were enjoying themselves as much as Bonnie was herself in drawing the audience into this group effort. It was reel caleepso, mon-checkeet out! A cool electric piano was a tasty accent. Bonnie closed her show iwwith "Sugar Mama," from Home Plate, her most recent album. A great jam between Bonnie on slide (stratocaster, ne less) and guitarist Will McFarland on wah-wah ensued, ending with Bonnie executing a flawless leap a la Pete Townshend for her finale. Fortunately, Bonnie realized that her hour set fell quite short of her usual show in length. The crowd roared its approval as she announced "We can't leave yet!" She took up her old Gibson once again, and delivered an absolutely astounding rendition of her own "Nothing Seems To Matter." The ovation confirmed my opinion: this was clearly the best number of the night. She closed with a medley of the old Aretha song, "Baby I Love You," and "Walk In The Rain," two of her in-concert numbers. Of course, this fifteen minute ericore was not enough to appease the audience. The band returned once more for the number Bonnie always tells her college audiences she learned in school; Stephen Stills' "Bluebird." This wound down into "I Don't Know Why I Love You Like I Do," which in turn gave way to "Coin' Home." And still the crowd was not satisfied. Bonnie was forced to return for one encore more, and urged the audience to join in on "Sweet and Shiny Eyes." Participation Bonnie seemed a bit more reserved Sunday, than at any other performance I have ever seen her do. This did not detract at all from the professional aspect, though. I think the subdued atmosphere of the Shea theatre influenced the feel of the whole evening. This is not to be misinterpreted as dampened enthusiasm, though. Her performance is one of the few these days that are down to earth enough to include the audience. And that is Ms. Raitt's most admirable quality; her concerts are always audience participation affairs. This one was no exception. The combination of her charm, musicianship and vocal ability combined to make this one of UUAB's best shows. It came off both professionally and enjoyably: not an easy combination to achieve. And the inclusion of Mose Allison as an opener was good for both the headliner and the audience. The crowd enjoyed Allison's delta blues and incredibly mellow voice. And Allison is a Raitt favorite. The combined efforts of all involved made it a unique evening. Let's see more of this soon. |iyun!w>| �Greek drama staged in Harriman Theatre The Bacchae brings to light the facets of the human experience in a unique and tantalizing manner. The Greek by Euripides will be play performed by the U.B. Theatre Department, March 17 and 27, at 8 p.m. at Harriman Theatre. The Bacchae differs from classical Greek tragedy by casting out the traditional concept of the chorus music and dance as a background movement. Director Clyde Grigsby and Choreographer Linda Swiniuch chose this play because they wanted a piece that integrated dance, music, and theatre into one smooth flowing medium. Cast members are always on the stage speaking, chanting, singing, dancing, and playing instruments. "The music and tht direction should work together," many — challenge. Grigsby said, "neither one should supercede the other." Working with a variety of art forms provides a challenge for actors, allowing them to explore different aspects of self-expression. The expertise of the cast members in music and dance combines interestingly with the freshness of those who are less familiar with these mediums. Learning how to weave different modes of art into an electrifying pattern takes the mind out of itself and into physical and emotional levels of consciousness. Jung at heart? Like most Greek drama. The Bacchae has a large cast of characters linked together by an intricate plot. The play is staged in the City of Thebes, founded by Cadmus, whose daughter, Semele, claims the god Zeus is the father of her child. Her fellow city dwellers denounce her tale, believing the child to be fathered by a commoner. Semele dies in childbirth leaving behind a son, Dionysus (Keith Watts), god of Wind, who is protected by Zeus from the jealous eyes of his lover Hera. For hid in a deft of his thigh By the gold clasps knit did he safe hidden from Hera's eye.

Oil of dog Madness in the middle of the night courtesy of Gary Storm I have fond memories of the Iat6, lamented days oiBuffalo underground radio. It was the time of the original, monp WYSL-FM, where one Larry Rakow inititated me into the joys of Leo Kottke, the circa Incredible String Band, and "Stand-Up" Jethro Tull. It was when The New Potato Caboose extolled its readers, "We want to hear from you ... if you can say it with flowers, send some it." And it Was when you were likely to hear anything, — anything, on a wondrously insane, sometimes difficult to receive station called WBFO. Well, times have changed on the airwaves. WBFO has grown much more professional and structured, but at the cost of some of that wild, irreplaceable spontaneity, which the rest of Buffalo radio has lost much more completely. The last bastion,of radio rabies can be still found on WBFO, Monday thru Thursday nights, or Tuesday thru Friday mornings depending on your perspective, from 3 till 8 a.m. And Gary Storm's program, OH of Dog, is as likely as not the best thing on Buffalo radio. (The title comes from an Ambrose Bierce story.) WBFO has long been famed for its diversity, ranging from jazz to classical to folk, to public affairs to blues, to minority programs every week. OH of Dog captures this same range every night. "I do anything at Gary's description of the show all" is not hyperbole, but simple fact. He does anytinng at all. absolutely — - comes from the station's library; as often as not he simply pulls out a stack of albums, flips through them, and plays whatever looks interesting, whether he's heard it before or not. Ernie Kovacs is describing how to play "Droongo," a game involving dice, rickshaw puller cards, and Glen Plaid arrows; this segues into the Who and the Jefferson Airplane. A long cut gives time to talk about Gary's background. "I was a DJ in Albuquerque (his home town), at the University Station. I did a lot of the same stuff I I do now, but I didn't get much encouragement to was translating 'Beowulf' late at night, listening the radio, and I thought, 'He's not doing everything he could do.' ...

Anthing ESP We're now into Zappa's "Dirty Love," about which Gary gleefully notes, "This makes the 50's sound like the Tijuana Brass!" For about an hour he intersperses music with an extremely rare album of Fugs poet Ruli Kupferberg reading "found poetry" real, but quite strange, magazine advertisements. ("This is on ESP Records. It's a great lable; anything on ESP is good.")

A former classical violist (he took up the instrument again for Walter Gajewski's recent Deutschland recital), Gary was "blown out" of classical music by 60's rock. But he likes to mingle the forms, usually playing classical music in both traditional and modern styles as the sun rises.

That is, if time is a quantity distinct from place or if both are informed by the re-collections of memory, then one wants to attain a presence at once consonant with the contours of "the moment" of utterance and the"place" of that utterance within the arena of a public or theatrical fraternity. Ritual contains this element of public utterance as well as the fraternity implied by the language of its presentations. We admire certain directional efforts toward interpretation because it seems that the qualities of a given to be individual are able thus to be publicly declared acted upon in order to elicit a "fresh" or "new" occasion for the information of the script. Now, whereof does such a script appear? I mean, before Same French, where did one obtain such a script and what did it prescribe?

Or both, simultaneously. spontaneous and Dionysus' cousin, The King of Thebes. Thematically, the play represents the polarity between the forces of the mind (Pentheus) and the those of abandonment and sensuality (Dionysus). The Greek concept of hubris or excess pride, is a theme running throughout the drama. Penteus is the slave of his pride, maintaining his own point of view without question. But, he is untimately destroyed by the gods leading one to question if reason can survive in isolation. Ecstasy vs. poetry John Newell's musical score is alternating between ritualistic chants and melodious lyrical phrases, characterizing the violent, terrifying, and estatic, versus the poetic elements of Dionysus' nature. Tambourines, drums, cymbals, and thrysus (a fascinating, percussion instrument), symbolic of the Dionysus cult, throb to the heart beat of man's primitive instincts, building momentum by the repetition of musical patterns. —Hear O Israel— For gems from the JEWISH BIBLE Phone 875-4265 —continued from page 8— ... Taped oboe music filters through the audience singing of the sweeter side of sensuality. "We're trying to get away from categories of musi," Newell notes. "We are concerned with evoking the mood of the play through melody." Movement is enhanced by a stage, multi-level which in different planes and playing spaces challenge the players, giving rise to motion i, out, and, around the' boundaries of this platform. The stage is a world in itself and it can indicate any space, or, place of mind. The costumes, designed by Anna Marie Brooks, are dresses made of scraps of material and netting, earthly colored hand braided wigs, and crocheted masks, each with a face uniquely its own. The Bacchae is certain to have an impact on its audience, and, as Grigsby points out, "I hope people will come and see it, because there aren't many opportunities to see Greek typical tragedy."

I was deprived of a seat due to a premature sellout and personal "boycott" of the show's paper's by promoters this ex-editor. That show, the band's fourth appearance in Buffalo, was extraordinarily well-received, despite the fact that it marked their first U.S. tour without star Peter singer/ly ricist/madman Gabriel. On Monday, February 28, Genesis returned in triumph to the city where even the bar bands play their songs, this time to a jam-packed War Memorial resultant Auditorium. The two-hour concert offered a good look at a band in their prime; a powerful and meticulous display of a style that will continue to be imitated for years to come. Somehow, Genesis seems to be bridging the gap between that which is aesthetically pleasing and that which is in vogue among the listening public. The existence of such a gap can be proven (in an admitedly elitist fashion) by an oversimplied look at the crowd present for this concert, both factions of which must felt somewhat have displaced. While enthralled "progressive music connoisseurs" clutched at binoculars in vain attempts to see the settings on Rutherford's amplifiers, Mike bottle-toting adolescent "partier" were dismayed to find that they couldn't count on Steve Hackett's chord repertoire on the fingers of one hand, or indeed, at all. I winced to hear Phil Collins give one of those "we're gonna play loud and soft music and could you please pipe down during the soft music" speeches at the beginning of the evening, for I had thought that, even at the Aud, a Genesis audience was a tame audience. I also winced later, at the catcalls, fireworks, and three screaming teanage girls in the seat next to me, each of whom added credence to the vocalist's doubts. ("How come he ain't wearin' a mask like Pegasis?") So it goes. Collins takes over Futile condemnations of sports arena concerts and trendiness aside. Genesis could not have been better. A formidable P.A. system and mixing crew rendered every frighteningly note of their dynamic music, from thunderous section to delicate rhythm acoustic guitars, with equal lighting Dramatic precision. now-familiar (including the effects laser beams and cloud generators) Prodigal Sun emphasized every nuance of the set, and solidified the stance of the band's new center of attention Phil Collins. In the brief time since he moved out from behind his drum kit, Collins has not only filled, but outgrown Peter Gabriel's shoes. After five years of providing indistinguishable harmonies to Gabriel's elaborately inflected, gravelly voice, the percussionist had no trouble whatsoever in taking over lead vocals. The costumes once-extensive and theatrics have gone by the wayside, but Collins' magnificent voice and drumming hold on their own, and Genesis has become a band, rather than a — singer-with-accompanists. set, although Their predominantly based on the two most recent albums IA Trick Of The Tail and Wind And ) Wuthering includes several songs Originally recorded with Gabriel, and the new vocalist has mastered his predecessor's style.

Also an active songwriter, Rutherford keeps nearly as busy as Banks onstage, alternately handling rhythm bass and guitar/foot pedals as the song requires. From the thump-thump drone of "Squonk" though the rich acoustic guitars of "Your Own Special Way" (his own composition) and the strange syncopation of “Dance On A Volcano," tins "bass player and a half" adds a vital spark to the band's combustible mixture of sounds. arrays ., .

Lurking at the corner of the stage, Hackett seldom.plays solos, but when hfe does, they are as well thought-out as the arrangements they enhance as in the emotionally saturated climax to "Firth of Fifth.” Inventive chording, reinforcement of themes and lilting, heavily sustained decorative lines are his forte, as essential a part of the Genesis sound as Collins' vocals. Hackett and Rutherford often work together as a unit, offsetting Bank's mysterious dissonances (as ") on "The Lamb and together they provide a solid tonal anchor for the rest of the band. — ' ... Rutherford's usual is co-anchorman, however, Chester Thompson, who recently replaced Bill Bruford as the band's "alternate drummer." Although Collins' own masterful Phil drumming is still present on instrumental passages, he devotes most of his time onstage to singing, leaving Thompson as the sole percussionist. And percuss he does. The tricky offbeat accents and general jazz technique of the recorded Collins sound like old hat to this newcomer, who reproduces them with the utmost His accuracy. rapid-fire miscellaneous percussion work adds fire to the already seething instrumental in that Quiet Earth," with Collins and providing basic, the Rutherford " ... unmistakable rhythm line. At the close of "Dance On A Volcano," the two drummers performed a unison duet, sounding something like a two four-’armed Billy Cobham, then launched into the explosive running Latin rhythm of "Los Endos." The latter which closed the set, utilizes the Collins/R utherford/Thompson powerhouse as a starting point for a searing instrumental medley that could put many a jazz-rock band out of business.' This electrifying finale put the touches on a fine convert, one which confirmed Genesis as a first-rate live band, as professional and polished as they come. What is merely impressive on record became amazing in concert, and the audience was impressed. After a suitably standing, five-minut match-lighting ovation the band returned, (bedecked in Buffalo Sabres jerseys) for a medley of "The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway” and the final segment of "The Musical Box." This was one of the few examples I have seen in this concert-crazy city where the band actually deserved an encore, and the audience actually worked to bring them back. As the devasted crowd filtered out, the sound crew summed it all up with a tape of Ethel Merman singing "There's No Business Like Show Business." Indeed. finishing Volcano"). Supper's ready superb The vocals and percussive antics made "I know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)" from Selling England By The Pound a great crowd-pleaser, but the evening's real treat was a surprisingly faithful version of "Supper's Ready" (from Foxtrot) in all its operatic glory. The latter. complete with authentic vocals, arrangements, and even inflated "butterflies" flanking the stage, showed that the older, theatrical music of Genesis still stands alone, even without the benefit of Gabriel's choreography.

That one-time identifiable niche in the music industry is gradually fosing its identity and is beginning to fuse itself with other genres of the recording world. There is still a mainstream of pure jazz, but new tributaries are sprbuting from it all the time. Soul (funk) has more recently sprouted a jazzier tinge with elaborate horn arrangements displayed in the performances of Earth, Wind, & Fire, AWB, Kool and the Gang, Tower of Power, and Rufus, to name just a few. Jazz is present in some of the southern boogie music played by such bands as Marshall Tucker and Wet Willie, and can even be found in current disco stars like George Benson and Herbie Mann. The main outflow of jazz musicians, however, has been directed into ib present day "jazz-rock" sound. Chicago and Blood, Sweat & Tears entered with a somewhat just-this-side-of-rock format, with brilliant jazz horn riffs encorporated. Then came jazz-rock. Mahavishnu John McLaughlin appeared with his five-piece orchestra, which would later evolve into three new talents: Billy Cobham, the Jerry Goodman and Jan Hammer team, and Mahavishnu himself. Closely on McLaughlin’s heels came a flood of musicians, some newly discovered, some veterans finally achieving recognition. With the likes of the Brecker Brothers, the Crusaders, the newly rehashed Jeff Beck, Weather Report, and the L.A. Express, a new recording species was being born. Soon evolution took hold, producing such solo careers as those of Jean-Luc Ponty, Tony Williams, Tom Scott, and Ramsey Lewis. Possibly the most important band to emerge was Return to Forever. Featuring Chick Corea's dazzling keyboard wizardry, Stanley Clarke's discovery of the bass as something more than a fhythmic instrument, Al Dimeola's guitar expertise (replacing the original RTF's Bill Conners) and percussionist superb, Lenny White, the band put out six albums, culminating with the highly successful and most popular Romantic Warrior. After achieving their highest point of popularity with this release, Corea literally fired all but Clarke, leaving behind bitter feeling between Corea and the unemployed members. Chick and Stanley have since produced a disc under Corea's name and Dimeola is in the process of forming a new band, after a brief stint with Stevie Winwood and Stomu Vumashta's concept. Go. Lenny White, while appearing on Brian Auger's new album, Happiness-Heartaches, is also in the process of pursuing a solo career, with the release of a new disc entitled Big City. Now. ’gh fidelity for the price of mediocre naeiliy. * With this new album. White furthers his endeavors past his 1975 effort, Venutian Summer. He incorporates several big names and weaves them into a not-so-original, but nonetheless exciting sound. The opening title cut enlists the extraordinary talents of the Tower of Power Horn Section, fused with the keyboards of Brian Auger, accompanied by his Oblivion Express. The rhythm may be slightly over-repetitive, but an excellent lyricon solo by TOP'S Lenny Pickett and guitar solo by Oblivion's Jack Mills redeem the song. "Sweet Dreamer" features piano virtuoso Herbie Hancock and the disc's only vocals, supplied by Linda Tillery. Two brief "Interludes," beginning with "Egypt" and continuing into the lavishly orchestrated (a la flute and string section) "Nocturen" total a mere 2% minutes. The swift tempoed "Rapid Transit" spotlights White's percussion alongside of Herbie Hancock's second appearance, with the easily recognizable funky bass of Earth, Wind & Fire's Verdine White. "Dreams Come and Go" opens side two. The song is subtitled "For Jimi," and Neal Schon, current Journey and ex-Santana guitarist, guests here. "Enchanted Pool Suite," consisting of three parts, displays the fine acoustic talents of Jerry Goodman and Jan Hammer, and the pizzicato acoustic bass of ex-Westher Reporter Miroslav Vitous. "And We Meet Again," subtitled "For Miles," contains crowd applause, but no mention is made on the jacket whether it is, indeed, live. Brian Auger plays keyboards on-this cut, but the r?al excitement comes from a different guitar solo from each channel: Ray Gomez (who, incidentally, plays on three other cuts), from one and Neal Schon from the other. The album, as a whole, offers nothing uniquely original. The addition of some fine guests and Lenny White's admirable arrangements provide the factor needed to salvage it for the most part, but with this disc, Lenny White will remain just another fact in the —Doug Alpern jazz-rock crowd.

Heavy. Gary's soprano carries without interruption 9 nose flute sharply sniffing for the true scent of air. The vyind cries Tyner and the flow is defining. Further defined as the vibrant fnbod of "Asian Lullaby" invigorates, giving us the Hope that is richest of all, having, been earned and yearned earnestly. Black Judgments, huh? "Shaken, But Not Forsaken" is very evocative of the day: April 4, 1969. The folk ballad becomes deadly muse reminding that the love of Dr. _Kjng lives and will spread, be spread. How will you welcome your crops, children? The quiet is broken, its strength questioned. Freddie mixes the elements absorbed in the deep blackness, intensity quickens. Strings shimmer as nerve impulses electrify the nature of the beautiful ones, and McCoy comes the rain and summer storms, not living for moments but seizing the time, usually without notice. Yet, somebody's watching. Crescendo is met and well sent as McCoy and Freddie dance in the streets. I can picture Beverly Simms doing a twirl step, tambourine talking of reaching while her voice, being, touches you. See, doing it is more than keep on reacting. Do It! I hear Joe Ford and Knosi Virgil Day giving Jon Weiss and Susie Slack a lesson in true song that will not be heard. I hear Alex Haley thanking Malcolm for insight into basic roots. Birthright. I see Leroy Jones who writes with the playful precision of his blowing. I see myself only beginning. And the quietness is, now, resolve. -Michael F.

Yamaha piano, voice; Charlie Haden/acoustic bass; Frank Lowe/tenor saxophone; Billy H iggins/drums; Ricky Cherry/electric and acoustic pianos; Moki/tambourine; Hakim Jamil/acoustic bass; Bunchie Fox/electric bongos; Verna Gillis/voice. This music has a beautiful urgency that, even in tranquil moments, will rise/slap/caress your face all at once. "Brown Rice" is cultivated as electric pianos are celeste and wind chimes blowing in the wake of monsoons. Frank Lowe screams, torrential rains howling winds that yet whisper playfully, steady Prodigal Sun — The jewel in the upon my plane as the most minute ringing becomes a prelude lightning, thunder rippling here in Hakim Jamil's bass.

The music is very percussive, the power of love a dance thrumming with the most irresistable force of all: heart expression. Mutima Joe Bonner, with his "Love Dance", waltzes in vitality that is very visual, and this quality pervades the Music throughout. Guilherme Franco on orisha (spirit) invoking bells and sings that ring in tasty offering, and you know that deep inside you've been beckoning all your life. Woody is very beautiful; a floating firmness of direction/trumpet very vocal/pleading for our urgency in eloquence too often thought unfashionable. Tony Waters is well named. His cungas send waves that crest continuously. Billy Harper on tenor further defines destination as Cecil McBee bass and Victor Lewis drums discovery further probing. Steve Turre on trombone croons 'come, the night is long' and a hand is reaching for you right now. Right now. "Obsequious" is a challenge to its name. Love does not serve in self-enslavement but exchanges/sees that fertilize fiercely in gentle depth. Victor's drums drink deeply as Rene McLean emerges on alto that will bite your ear. This is not a time for nibbling, although Joe shows the worth of being nimble. Ready. Woody springs now the panther stealing eyes sharply/that tone shattering sleep as we gasp, our heads chinless. Cecil strums insistence and this theme brings the song to the climatic duel. Woody and Rene kill the serpents in our mist "Sunbath" is very thorough. Steve now on bass trombone; a tympani that is leasurely, concise. Woody is expansive, richly, as Joe fills spaces in changes. "Sunbath" is an event that whistles birdlike in the sky, announcing a coming, Woody's "Zoltan" presents colors of flute and fiddle woven into the fiery wind of brass and reed. A monster. Passion leaps as Woody becomes the incantation. Auspices are fulfilled and the elephants can be heard. Steve is one of the bulls, his very voice (bass trombone) drumming the air deeply and M'Boom is an invisible skin tightened further in the sparkle of spring water, courtesy Guilherme. Billy on tenor and now the thunder (Shango ) is a blistering cry of trunks/bundles unbundled. Tarzans of the mind are threatened. Rene now on soprano recalls the panther/never left/to lead the night storm of porters and dethroned kings. B'wana is dead, the nigger of mass confusion. Joe's piano celebrates the search for an inclusive peace as Guilherme's cuica echoes this unity, this thing to be forever found. Love Your (Black Spiritual of Billy’s "Soulfully, Love)" reaffirms the tranquility of clarity. Woody swims lovingly here the quietness a louder trumpet than ever as Steve proves.

The Spectrum Page fifteen . ��RECORDS Auger's Brian Oblivion Express, Happiness-Heartaches (Warners) Happiness-Heartaches is British keyboardist Brian Auger's latest Warner Bfothers release. In their previous incarnations, Auger and his band, the Oblivion Express, have experimented in the rock-jazz genre, with styles ranging from "Easy Listening" to one reminiscent of the Mahavishnu Orchestra. It is at their own brand of light funk. When the material is good, this album cooks. My favorites among the seven tunes dre "Never Gonna Come Down," "Back Street Bible Class," "Got To Be Born Again," and "Give Me A Funky Break," which are the album's most cohesive and rock-oriented songs. "Never Gonna Come Down," written by bassist Clive Chaman, is among the Express' best work. Its infectious rhythm, and light and funky vocals and lyrics left me humming for days. The other three preferred songs use the band's tight formula of strong rhythm lines followed by a more buoyant Auger organ solo. The tunes are catchy and Auger's keyboards work well with them. The remaining three songs, "Spice-Island," "Happiness-Heartaches," and "Paging Mr. McCoy," are less successful. "Spice Island," in which White's drumming becomes most noticeable, fails to achieve the Return To Forever rhythmic quality for which it aims. "Paging Mr. McCoy," which refers to McCoy Tyner (not Van McCoy), finds Auger emulating Tyner's piano style. Auger, unlike Tyner, is not a great piano technician. Where Tyner's music works on building up to several climaxes, Auger's imitation simplistic repetitious. seems and "Happiness-Heartaches," the best of the three when he and his group can find a "happy medium," above-mentioned songs, is the album's most soulful. Here Ligertwood's Marvin Gaye-ish vocals are as on this disk, that they are the most successful. soothing, though not as sexy as Marvin's own; With the addition of ex-Return to Forever instead of the intended seduction, they induce sleep. drummer Lenny White, Auger has assembled his most capable backup band. At their best, they This item seems to me to be an album for Auger supply the rhythmic bottom on which Auger's fans only. Though it contains some of his better stylized keyboard leads build. With rhythm guitarist material, Straight Ahead and Live Oblivion / are Alex Ligertwood's excellent vocals, the band excels better albums. —Andrew Ross Dean Friedman (Lifesong) Billy Joel first stepped out from behind the piano bars of Oyster Bay to make his mark as the Long Island Cowboy. Dean Friedman is not a Cowboy, but a Minstrel of Manhattan, breaking his bread at the Bottom Line and now on Lifesong Records, a label that caters to New York artists. Joel gave us his ideas on Long Island decadence, but Friedman plays a different ballgame. The songs are personal ones and give us a picture that he is a happy-go-lucky balladeer, freewheelin' his way through New York City life. Yes, he's got his lost loves and his new ones, but Dean puts it in his own offbeat way that verges on the seriocomic. "Ariel" is Friedman's love song to a girl he met while collecting money for a non commercial radio station, WBAf, at Paramus Park in New Jersey. It was a head-over-heels affair, and I've got to know this, so Friedman makes this a bouncy tune, complete with a tenor sax solo that sounds like it came off an old Coasters record from the '50's. He flips and I can picture him bounding through Central Park, singing the magic of it all With the forbidding title of "The Letter," this song is Friedman's finest ballad on the album. String and horn arrangements by Kenny Ascher, the piano pours out Friedman's tale of a girl who goes off on a journey to find herself and the ones at home who miss her. The verses have a disjointed undertone, mostly from the smooth bass lines of Tony Levin, giving way to the man's crumbling past. So what's it like on your own, a roaming vagabond. Away from home in search of some forgotten door? Is it half as good as it sounds? Tell me, have you found. The peace and calm we've all been looking for? A spirit runs through this album, a Broadway Melody of life and love. I get this idea that Dean Cheap Trick (Epic) Dateline: The Whole Midwest. It finally has happened; Punk Rock has hit that sordid bastion of banal Americana. The low culture fad has spread throughout the United States. If there is ever a detailed encyclopedic history of rock fifty or sixty years hence, very little, if any, space will be devoted to Punk Rock. The explanation may look like this: the fad of punk rock was the result of a bored middle-class search for truth, found falsely, simplicity, discovered through complex, forced, 'creativeness,' closeness to low life, built through the plastic eyes of a dope-drenched high culture, and primitivism, explained through technology." Cheap Trick is a pretty decent rock group. But someone labeled them Punk Rock with the expectation that all critics everywhere will be satisified with their shallow, wet-dream facade flowing with the verbose adolescence: 'Yeah, ya gotta dig all this kiddies, because like. I'm playin' uh, with my false teen dream, which has gotta blow yer 1 mind.' Brainwash your mind, maybe. So let me forget all the labels and critical bandwagoning and deal with Cheap Trick on their Own midwestern rock level. Listening to Cheap Trick's album, I recall those exo-teric, now esoteric, times of the sixties when the Beatles were glued to my ear via the AM airwaves; the karma was instantly brought to sound by the cheap $.25 speaker in my transistor radio. But now the reverb on Cheap Trick's guitar, which is tuned like John Lennon's; the drum beats are simple enough to emulate the thick knuckled hands of Ringo Starr; the lead guitar is as "intricate" as Harrison could have made it; maybe McCartney is harmonizing to Lennon's lead vocals. Lennon's voice is tempered with the understanding, loved-and-lost wimpering that made him likeable before he changed the call to a philosophic wine of self-indulgence. ... Dammit, you can't tell me this isn't the Beatles. They've secretly reformed under the guise of . .. . .. Cheap Trick. Reality. Is it a Cheap Trick or the ultimate in well-fashioned parody? "Here and Now/blistered droop eyes/don't believe it./She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah/l hop sew./Any time at all/Weaving mind hope/l know what's between your/e;ars don't lie ecstacy./Hope deprives us all/Laying and lying in rings/help, chipped teeth, krisna, wings, ono/No It's strange. Cheap Trick sounds so much like the Beatles you wish to forget the epistemological realities of the group and bathe in imagination, dropping the force of identity. Cheap Trick somehow retains their own rock image. Perhaps it is because one cannot banish reality forever without some remnants of logic enforcing a belief, false or true, in the actual. It's sane and insane. Reactionarily, the group of Robin Zander on vocals impresses the dream on the listener, while Rick Nielson, the songwriter-lead guitarist, bassist Tom Petersson and drummer Bun E. Carlos reinforce the feeling. The songs are perfectly timed to carry out the parody in fine style. The song "He's A Whore," which deals with the shady personality of a man's love of a woman for her money is a deep portrayal of Cheap Trick's many-edged sword of satire. First the gigolo mocks his monied mate — And so the story goes think I'll take her for a ride With this moneybag by my side Cause gigolo is the only way to go And so I show my face And / can even fake a smite But I'm laughing inside all the while The little girl, she's a joke . . .

The evidence to this case won is "Funny Papers," a zipper of a song, backed by a thumping jazz trio, a 2Vi minute delight Friedman is this suavely-dressed folkie who hits all to the comic strips. For secondary motives, there's the elaborate nightclubs and sings his life to all those the essential "Humor Me," a torchy, gospel-ish tune attending. I remember seeing his name in the ads for approach up that sums Friedman's to the Bottom Line, who now manages him, self-explanation. commanding the second billings. Well now.

The group knew though not to repeat the joke too many times. —Harold Goldberg Prodigal Sun �Akkerman and Kaz Lux, Eli (Atlantic) no, many things take time. It is Some things jften unfair to rely on first impressions, especially when listening to albums. Eli is a case in point, for in he two months that I've been listening to it, I have ompletely reversed my first impressions, but I have 'et to come to any definite conclusions about it. When I first brought the album home, I was mly familiar with "Tranquilizer," *m instrumental hat was being played fairly extensively on the FM tations at the'time. I am always suspicious when adio stations play only one or two things off an Ibum, because is implies that the rest of the album ; not worth listening to. With Eli this suspicion urned out to be justified (at first); with the xception of the aforementioned "Tranquilizer" and There He Still Goes," I found very little material hat was interesting. At first, I laid the blame to vocalist Kaz Lux, tainly because of his obnoxious voice and jbstandard lyrical ability. To me. Lux did not sing; e merely shouted or spoke like an amateur vant-garde poet, devoid of the feeling necessary to onvey any message. These shortcomings were jrther compounded by his alleged poetry, articularly that on "Naked Actress:" . / II II . . ohce watched a fly die VEGETARIAN DINNERS SALADS OMELETS MACROBURGERS FRUIT JUICES OUR OWN BREAD You know why he had to die? Because he was a fly, that's why For some time I remained quite Unimpressed with the album. However, once I managed to go beyond the vocal performances, I realized that I had been overlooking some of the most beautiful guitar work that Akkerman had ever produced. His riffs provided a terse background that was far more listenable that Lux's work, and his solos, although far to infrequent, were fascinating. EH is much more Daryl Hall/John Oates, No Goodbyes (Atlantic) jazz-oriented than any of Akkerman's previous solo As happens so often in the record business, Atlantic Records, in an efforts, and this may have prevented me from effort to cash in on the monstrous success of Daryl Hall and John noticing its strong points for such a long time. Oates, has put together a package of Hall & Oates material consisting of Now, as I listen to it, I find other, less obvious seven previously released tracks and three never-before-released ones. things attracting my attention, such as Pierre van der The seven previously released tracks are mbstly from War Babies and Linden's and Renee DeBois' sedate or frenetic Abandoned Luncheonette, with only "Lilly (Are You Happy)''pulled drumming (depending on the mood of the song), from Whole Oates, the duo's first offering. Neppie Noya's refined efforts on percussion and While the songs individually are all highlights of their respective Rick van der Linden's subtle keyboard work, albums, once they are combined on one album, some of the original particularly on "Strindberg." Kaz Lux is also starting brilliance lacks. Songs such as "Seventies Scenario" and "Las Vegas to become more bearable; in some places, he is Turnaround" were among the most successful tracks of War Babies and almost enjoyable perhaps I'm growing used to his Abandoned Luncheonette, but just don't have that same artistic magic style. when heard here. Understanding and appreciating EH does take Atlantic Records seemingly put this record together in the minimal time more time than I've spent on almost any amount of time possible. Take the cover for instance, the green tinted other album. However, now it appears that it may be photograph of a nightgown-clad girl in a bare room has absolutely no well worth the ( effort. -Eugene Zielinski correlation whatsoever with anything related to the music of Daryl Hall and John Oates. It was bad enough that Atlantic did nothing to promote Daryl and John when they were with the label, but to throw together an album like this is insult upon injury. The least Atlantic could have done would have been to enclose the lyrics, something all five Hall/Oates studio efforts did. But alas, no lyrics. Nevertheless, for a newly won-over Hall and Oates fan, this may be not a bad investment. Without the previous albums to look back on for comparison, these are great songs. Hall and Oates, though just recently reaping the huge rewards of rock superstardom, have since OPEN their debut album on Atlantic's Whole Oates, created some of the most Tuesday—Sunday progressive and awe-inspiring rock music to date. The vocal interplay of 11:30- 4:30 Lunch Hall and Oates throughout “Lilly (Are You Happy)" remains 5:00 9:00 Dinner unmatched by anyone. As I've expounded on before, in my previous 9:30 Breakfast on reviews, without a doubt Daryl Hall has the premier voice in rock & Saturday Sunday today. The range, passion, and phenomenal control that he possesses in 9:00pm Sunday his vocal work are nothing short of breathtaking for the listener. As on Coffeehouse. "Las Vegas Turnaround," when Hall screams "Sara ple-e-e-ase," or the famous 'She's Go-o-one," Daryl Hall manages to give every song his utmost feeling and emotion, utilizing every ounce of soul his body gives him. The three "new" songs, recorded in 1973, were probably done during the Abandoned Luncheonette sessions, since they're produced by Arif Mardin. The best of the three, "Love You Like A Brother" features the usual excellence of Daryl's vocals accompanied by an up-tempo arrangement with an excellent rhythm section. "I Want To Know You For A Long Time" and "It's Uncanny," the other two unreleased tracks are both Daryl Hall workouts, featuring primarily Hall, with John Oates confined to basically co-harmonizing on the choruses. Though the unreleased material is good, and basically on par with their other works, three unreleased tracks should not make an album. If Hall and Oates had many hits with Atlantic, it would be different, since "greatest hits" packages are universal with every label; but H&O only had one hit with Atlantic ("She's Gone"), and this came only upon its third release and subsequent to the breakthrough for H&O, "Sara Smile." Nevertheless, an album like this, coming at a time when H&O are at their hottest, will surely increase Atlantic's profits, and that's what record companies aim for. No Goodbyes, while no trend setter, does contain ten H&O tracks, which would be ideal for someone first getting into the duo. The tracks just a-small sampling of the Hall are ail excellent and well-produced and Oates catalog, which in this reviewer's opinion is the most progressive in rock. So, if you're considering getting into the country's leading rock duo, No Goodbyes may not be a bad beginning. • —Steven Brieff RECORDS — — n — — 25 GREENFIELD STREET II II II I.R.C.B.

The Elections At last week’s Student Association (SA) election, the last one I will have to cover, I felt some very strange vibes. I was taken aback by the entire process, our campus exercise in democracy. It is difficult, if not impossible, to protest an action taken by the University administration if you are screaming from a divided house. Somehow 1 have the idea that they must think this whole episode is very entertaining at Hayes Hall. SA, instead of concentrating on important issues like the GSEU strike or the fragmented move to the North Campus, worries about placating prima donna personalities. How ironic it is in a year when two of the last big time, big city operators, Daley of Chicago and O’Connell of Albany, are buried, so many sordid charges must be raised in a student election. The national news shows tell us that the age of dirty smoke filled room politics has past. I wonder if last week’s performance by my peers does not portend a return to these low standards. The outgoing SA President alluded to the vicious nature of the election and was rather concerned that he might have lost friends. This election set an all-time record for poor taste. Last year on election night I asked one of the victors if he the anticipated any problems working with other side, he said obviously not, since everyone knew each other and the parties had only been forged a few weeks before the election. This year’s election transcended party lines before concentrated on the election and personalities. The usual slogans on posters were accompanied by bitter behind the back name-calling and innuendo. Such pleasantries as the losers congratulating the winders might have been neglected altogether had not several former SA politicos intervened. One candidate, who in the debates chastised another for accepting the University administration as the powers that be on this campus, has decided to protest this election, not in the forum of his fellow students, but to the administration. Such hypocrisy warrants no further comment. Instead of concentrating feu> WMWnJ#****; nrr issues, some and Credentials Committee was the recipient of much ridicule and abuse. My question is not even whether it was deserved but, how,necessary it was and what interests if any were served by the unending protest. The lack of honesty in accessing the mandatory fee situation was appalling. With SA’s expected budgetary shortfall, it is strange that so few by David J. Rubin Special Features Editor candidates felt that the fee should be raised. The same people will tearfully rise at a budget hearing in a few months and say: isn’t it a shame that we must cut these programs. What’s the difference? At least we did not offend any of those people before the election. These officials tell us how terrible Carey is and go do the same thing in the financial arena. I can remember only one candidate who, without enveloping an answer in rhetoric, actually said that'those who can afford $67.00 can afford $70.00 and those who cannot afford the fee receive Norton Lanes, the marble steps, the candy counter, the Rat, 205, the Charles Room, the Tiffin Room, the Record Coop, Haas Lounge, the Fillmore Room, the Browsing Library, The Spectrum Office. These will be gone soon, and nothing will ever be able to replace them. Oh, they talk about the Amherst Campus and the new student union there and how nice and big and beautiful it will be with all its “student spaces” and administration offices, and everything else. But once it opens, and Norton, er Squire, er, no, let’s keep it at Norton, closes, you won’t be able to cruise through Norton on your way from the dorms to a Diefendorf 148 lecture. And that, for me at least, is sad. Recent graduates of this University don’t even like to hear about waivers. the desecration they feel is going on. Many of these alumni refuse to Spectrum been said of the role of The Much has in SA elections especially of late.

Carter, and Ketter. Almost all campus news breaks in or around the union, and whatever doesn’t passes through the union almost immediately. Norton Hall is the nerve center of this school. And now it’s gone. When the class of 1981 (doesn’t that seem like an eternity from now?) checks in for summer orientation, the campus tours will feature stops through Squire Hall. They will visit the new SA office in some other Norton Hall, which I hope never to visit. Yes, these are the “good old days” of tomorrow. The beauty of this school lies in its smallness. The enrollment figures say 13,000 undergraduates, but how many people at this school can walk through the union on a warm spring day and not bump into someone they know? The Union is all of us. It’s the dogs, the hari krishnas, the freaks selling jewelry and leather, the student government hacks, the frisbee throwers, and the people who just plain hang out. I know people who spent four years and more at this school doing nothing else but “hanging out in the union.” Some people hang out on the first floor, others in the Rat, others in various offices. They don’t do anything constructive. They don’t try to, but they are part of the union and they will have no place to hang out starting next fall. At least for the time being, though, all is not lost. I called Norton Information Desk, and they still said “Norton Hall when they picked up the phone. But on the other hand, my editors are shouting that 1 can’t use Norton Hall in a story. Well, tough on them. This place will always be Norton Hall no matter what it says on some stupid plaque.

The location of shared refrigerators in food preparation areas in Ellicott has been similarly harassed by the Housing administrative heirarchy (one member of which absolutely refused to discuss the matter with an/’students), notwithstanding the fact that these common units stand next to those over holes in the walls, these problems could be handled on a case-by-case basis by RA’s who are familiar with the problem, just as is now done for any damage or sanitation problem. Altogether, these Housing “directors” and “vice presidents” seem obsessed with playing the- roles of big business executives, in a situation where concern and sensitivity for students’ needs and desires should be paramount. It is a shame that these people cannot pursue their calling as businessmen in the outside let’s face it, most University administrators world are refugees from real life but why must they play their games here?There may or may not be pressure on Housing from ‘Food Service to force people into that’s not the those greasy, starch-filled meal plans point. The problem comes down to the pettiness, insensitivity, arbitrariness, and self-righteousness of Housing bureaucrats. The refrigerator issue is only one illustration of their reprehensible repertoire. They get the last laugh as usual; if I sign my name to this, they’ll probably turn off my - - — electricity! Thanks to the Office of Admissions and Records, the students of the 8th Judicial District (almost 90% Commuters) will get a chance to see the University this month. Janyce Serafin and Nancy Benay have Worked out a program which will enable the students, who have been accepted for fall ’77, to attend an Information Conference. The conferences, to be held on March 12, 19 and 26 will have different workshops for the perspective new students to attend. They will cover everything from academic advisement to different faculties to commuting. Over the period of three Saturdays, some 1,000 students and parents will attend these informative conferences. Admissions and Records has asked the Commuter Affairs Council to participate in the workshops. The Council will be informing the new perspectives of the services available to them on campus. Topics of parking, bussing and recreation are to be some of the major topics discussed. By having present students talk to the new students, the Council hopes to achieve an informal atmosphere to allow the students to feel free to ask whatever questions they may have. A dorm resident A Fond Farewell . To the Editor This letter is directed toward those officials in the housing department that have seen fit to outlaw refrigerators larger than nine cubic feet. We are residents of Clinton Hall in the Governors complex. In our suites a single fifteen cubic foot refrigerator fulfills the needs of as many as seven students. Dae of smaller units,, by decree of housing or lack of funds, would entail use of more than one refrigerator. This we feel is ludicrous if the housing officials seek to preserve energy. Our one refrigerator uses far less energy than two nine cubic foot units. And it is far more economical and convenient. In regard to the safety requirements about refrigerators, our refrigerators are not new by any means but are in perfect working order. They are in our rooms, not the bathroom; and are easily moved in or out of the rooms. Transporting them in or out of the dorm itself is simply an inconveneince, not an impossibility. And since it is our responsibility housing need not lift a finger to do some work for a change. Far be it from us to inconvenience our benefactors, the beloved housing department. We sincerely hope housing will reconsider this decision. > David A. Lewis Patrick M.

Friday, 11 March 1977 by Cheryl McNerney and Rick Birdsall The elections have come and gone arid the new administration will be taking over soon. But before the present administration bites the dust we would like to say a few things about a couple members of the current administration. The present SA President Steve Schwartz deserves to be commended for the job he has done this past year. We have not always agreed with the things he did, but we realize that in handling his job, he used a calm, compromising approach which he believed was best in carying out his duties. Never overreacting to a situation nor acting like a loony ( The Spectrum feels the best kind of president is a crazy who will lead riots if all student demands aren’t met); he was always able to see the other person’s position. He could just as easily work with Dr. Ketter when it was necessary for student interests, as he could with student groups. He rarely lost his sense of humor, thank God, since a fine sense of madness is a necessity for being involved in student government. He has been a strong supporter of student unionization which ultimately is the only hope for students to escape the bureaucratic infighting and concentrate on issues of tuition, tenure, cutbacks, etc. Steve Schwartz has handled his job in a fair and competent way. He has been rather unfairly torn apart in the recent campaign, which is to be expected. But now that the campaign rhetoric has ended, we think that most people will agree he has done a pretty good job. Steve Spiegel has had to put up with an awful lot this year. He was beaten up, had his life threatened, asked to resign and people were screaming about the way he ran Senate meetings. We didn’t want Steve elected in the first place. However, looking back, we feel Steve did a fine job. He was elected to carry out the rules. What some people mistook for arrogance on Steve’s part, was really a determination not to let Senate meetings turn into shouting matches. It would have been very easy to let the meetings turn into complete chaos (the last few have despite Steve’s best efforts). These words of praise may shock some people (including Steve). Last year we were extremely rough on Steve in the Commuter Comment. We realize now that we were blaming Steve for what we considered the inequities in the student government. We brutally used him as a scapegoat. We should have known better. We’re sorry for the touble we gave him last year because he turned out to be a very good vice president.

Tull Party candidate Gilbert Lawrence received 384 votes, James Stegman running on the Wasted banner collected 320 and independent Turner Robinson picked up 161 votes.

According to University officials, Ketter was among 300 candidates for the position. However, Ketter wrote a letter to Emory last week, stating that he would not be available for the Presidency. A family spokesperson also denied that Ketter would soon be leaving this University. Ketter will meet with representatives of the Graduate Students .Employees Union today. The meeting is the first scheduled by the Ketter Administration in months, and is considered important in light of the GSEU's strike referendum beginning March 14. Fee stays at $67; athletic issue passes Students voted to continue the $67 mandatory activity fee but rejected raising it $3 more in the referendum which accompanied last week’s Student Association (SA) election. Students also approved the non-binding referendum question on stable funding for athletics. The question on the continuance of the mandatory activity fee 1826 to 840. This question was was approved by a 986 vote margin made the SUNY Board of Trustees in by necessitated by recent changes their guidelines for mandatory fee use. The last fee referendum at this University was two years ago. Without the changes in guidelines, a referendum is only necessary every four years. This is the third time since 1974 that the activity fee has been approved on this campus. The mandatory fee monies, which total about $880,000, are given to SA, which in turn distributes those funds to SA clubs, special interest organizations and Sub-Board, the student corporation. The specific allocations are determined by the SA Senate in their annual budget hearings. The second referendum question asked if students woula approve a • — in the fee to $70, which is the maximum allowed by law. This was resoundingly rejected, 1672 votes to 919. This question has divided leaders of the student government; some do not want to take the unpopular stand of asking for more money, others felt the added revenue would be of great help in meeting budget requests. The final question was a non-binding referendum question over funding the athletic program through a fixed allocation for a four year period. This passed by a vote of 1577 to 858. The allocation would be set bu the Financial Assembly and overseen by a special review board.

The case was brought by Allan Bakke, a discrimination and a lot of not-getting-ahead, and white, who was denied admission to the medical being looked at as inferior. What I say to my students who may be inclined school at the Davis branch of the University of California; he claims to be the victim of “reverse to these “inferiority” ideas regarding minority students, who are seen as their competitors, is that discrimination.” Supreme Court outlaws these we are living in a capitalist society, which fosters quota If the systems, the New York Times predicts on the basis competition between the races and various ethnic of interviews with law school deans, that very few groups; as long as whites see the blacks as the minority students will gain admission this coming “problem,” then the wealthy remain in control of year; typically, instead of fifty minority admitted our society.

J number of minority lawyers, doctors, and other professional people in the years to come. Many of my own students are sitting now and waiting for that fateful letter which will tell them their future: entrance into law school or seeking some sort of job. Many of these tell me that they feel they, too, may be the victims of “reverse discrimination” and lose out. Many are angry at this possibility, considering all the work they’ve done, and money and loans consumed, and their parents’ dreams, and their own. I don’t blame them for being angry and upset, but I do not agree with them that they are the victims of “reverse discrimination”—I do not think that expression means anything at all. Let me explain: Since the minority population in the U.S. is around ten to fifteen percent, you might expect ten to fifteen percent of the admitees of professional schools to be minority students, even without special preferences and quotas. But we must take it on good authority, the Law School Deans, themselves, that this will not be so. We may wonder why this low number of minority students who are able to gain admittance through the normal channels of tests scores and the like. People have drawn two contradictory conclusions; one, that minority students are from an inferior race of people who haven’t the intellectual capacity to do this sort of work, and never will make good lawyers or doctors, so that making a special admissions policy for them is a waste of time and money. The other conclusion is that the social, economic and political discrimination poses such an enormous barrier that the fact that only a tiny number of minority students can be admitted normally is merely another measure of how extensive and pervasive those discriminatory pressures really are. A great mistake Frankly, I don’t blame people, under the kind of pressure they are under, with their parents’ hopes breathing down their backs, to seek out for an easy explanation of their plight. Otherwise, in our society, you are led to believe you are not so good if you fail to gain entrance to school. But you are not to blame; everyone ought to be admitted and allowed to try out. The pressure is artificial, just like the supposed oil shortage, or natural gas shortage. They are both designed to keep the poor and working populations struggling against each other: who should get the gas? Who should get the few spots in law schools? I said earlier that the expression “reverse discrimination” was a non-expression, it doesn’t mean anything. If minorities make us say ten percent of the population, and if these professional schools make a special preference to admit that same percentage of minority students, taking the top minority students that apply, then they are only doing what they would anyway if there had been no discrimination in our society to begin with. If you believe, as 1 do, that blacks are not inferior, then you'account for their lack of ability to gain entrance to the pervasive discrimination practiced against them, and the only honest thing the professional schools can do is to go ahead and admit them. They can do one thing more, they can see to it, by remedial assistance in law and medical school, that these same students are not handicapped during their work there. Otherwise, they would be admitting them, and then reporting their failure to succeed in professional school as if they were equally advantaged educationally from the start, which they clearly are not. This issue raises only one of the kinds of issues we as a society must face in the years to come, as a result of an inhuman policy of slavery and discrimination which a few people were wised up to by “Roots” on TV. The same issue is faced in the Buffalo Public Schools today, and is hot to be understood as “the busing issue” but as the necessity for our society to take responsibility for what we have created: a dual discriminatory system whose results are evident to us all everyday. We can acknowledge this discrimination in the past and present, and try to build a decent future for ourselves, or we can succumb to “racial inferiority” as an explanation and pay the’consequences The Spectrum is published Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the academic year and on Friday only the summer by during The Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc Offices are located at 355 Norton Hall, State University of New York at Buffalo, 3435 Mam St., Buffalo, an Coupon worth 50c Fri..

The latter argument is gaining adherents as the pressures for jobs among undergraduates increases, the number of jobs decreases, and the race for professional school degrees becomes intense. Under such intense pressure 1 can see why many students may entertain these “racial inferiority” arguments, but to do so would be to make a great mistake. Many of the people I’ve talked to are second or third generation, Irish, Italians, Polish or Jewish Americans; and if they want to appreciate how this sort of discrimination works all they need to do is to go back home and spend an evening with their grandparents, or possibly even their own parents, and remind themselves that once the Irish, the Italians, the oles, the Jews, were subtly or otherwise excluded from the same sort of educational opportunities. And, the “majority” students who did gain entrance in those days, drew the same conclusions about the ethnic Americans who were excluded: they were of an inferior race, not mentally equipped to master the details of law, medicine, etc. Maybe now, people can see why Tolstoy College teaches the course “Desegregation of the Buffalo Public Schools.” as well as “The Polish- American Charles NY. 14214 831 4113.

Athol Springs 627-7942 | | �Pending contract approval UUP, AAUP vying for faculty support by Dave Ziffer Staff Writer Spectrum The faculty and staff of SUNY, including those at this school, are presently voting on the adoption of a new contract proposed by their bargaining agent, United University Professions (UUP). If the contract is defeated, the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) will attempt to replace UUP as the SUNY agent. Chapter AAUP Buffalo President Murray Brown said his major complaint against the new UUP contract is “it allows for incursions on academic freedom and it doesn’t protect tenure; it allows the administration to act in such a way that tenure is no longer meaningful.” The contract essentially allows the administration to define academic programs in such an arbitrary and capricious manner that any individual can be targeted and he (terminated), retrenched contended. a bargaining agent for university systems, and nationally many determines accepted guidelines for relations between university professors and their employers. According to guidelines, faculty AAUP appointments and retrenchments should be determined by the faculty rather than the AAUP is 44 administration. —FMss People not programs accused SUNY Brown administrators of attempting last year to define academic programs around individuals they Wanted removed. This type of action effectively eliminates the purpose of tenure and deprives the faculty of proper governance, he said. Brown also objected to a clause in Charles Fall Snyder by David Malat Spectrum Staff Writer Housing officials have imposed a new University regulation which will prohibit students from bringing refrigerators larger than 9.0 cubic feet into the dorms. The regulation takes effect in September. According to Len Snyder, “Assistant Vice President for Housing and Custodial Services,” the University is striving to be energy conscious: reducing the size of the refrigerators should lead to less energy consumption. “Some of the smaller rooms are not designed to accommodate such large units,” Snyder explained, “and we’ve actually had instances of refrigerators being stored in bathrooms in the Governors Complex.” University Housing Director Madison Boyce said concern was health and safety. He described a number of hazardous instances, including one in which a gas leak in an old unit forced dorm occupants to be evacuated. Boyce added that he felt the units brought in are not clean enough and may be infested with insects. As support, Boyce cited the fact that two summers ago when refrigerators were stored in two Ellicott quads a roach problem his primary developed. The third official, “Director of Housing Custodial Services,” Richard Cudek estimated that approximately 500 15 to 25 year old refrigerators are brought into the dorms. These large units can damage halls, elevators, and door frames. Cudek received reports of holes in walls resulting from refrigerator transport. Another major problem is that students leave large units behind during the summer and discover them missing on returning the following semester. Approximately 40 refrigerators meet this fate each year, according to Cudek. ' Fix or nix Snyder, Boyce and Cudek all vehemently denied allegations that this plan was implemented to force students to join Food Service.

He has formed a committee consisting of the three IRC area council presidents, Chuck Froehlich, Lenny Rollins, Phil Dinhoffer and himself, to fully investigate the matter. The committee will print a newsletter informing dorm students of administration guidelines and how IRC will handle any problems. “The administration was giving me the runaround on who made the actual decision and what size limitations were going to be imposed,” Laghezza said. “Also, the only publicity that they had planned to put out was an added rule in the housing contract students pick up during the room lottery.

Wrangling with capitalists More than three years away, the Summer Olympics in Moscow are already the object of controversy and speculation. The recent negotiations between the American television networks and the Soviet Organizing Committee have turned the XXII Olympiad, 1980, into a competition of money and politics. Heralded as “The Great Bidding War of Television,” the negotiations raised serious questions concerning the depths to which a .network had to indebt itself in order to acquire the Broadcasts. The three major American networks first met with Soviet officials in December, 1976. Expecting to pay around $50 million for television rights, all three networks walked out of the negotiations when informed that the price hovered somewhere near the $100 million mark. The American Broadcasting Company (ABC) paid $25 million to televise the last Summer Olympics from Montreal. The Soviets proved more than capable when it came time to wrangle with the capitalist American networks. Sources indicate they received the $50 million demanded for production and equipment costs, plus $35 million for the broadcast rights—a total price tag of $85 million. NBC long ago gave up hope of making money on this purchase. The prestige involved and the possibility of increased Nielsen ratings for programs preceding and following the telecasts, however, must have been powerful enough inducements to set down this record amount of cash. While paying over triple the amount that ABC paid to Montreal, NBC will get 150 hours of coverage compared to the 75 hours aired from the Canadian Olympics. This means, hopefully, more sports time. But the network, through this most recent purchase, incurred a larger debt than $85 million. So many imponderables The production and equipment package that cost Why the exhorbitant price?Besides the fee for $50 million can be translated into finer terms; NBC the broadcast rights, the Soviets wanted $50 million had to submit to considerations other than money. With this $50 million, the Soviets are reportedly purchasing 40 “slow motion” videotape recording machines and 196 color cameras to complement their existing equipment. NBC, then, has assumed a technological debt; the must teach the Russians how to operate the advanced video equipment. In the process, the Russians are looking to raise the stature of their comparatively primitive video technology. “What they want,” says CBS president Robert Wussler, “is a basic technical course in broadcasting.” for basic technical facilities. When the U.S. networks broke off negotiations because of these demands, the possibility of a Moscow Olympics without television arose. Throughout December and January the three network powers considered pooling the spectacle. Through this arrangement they would have rotated the coverage after a joint purchase of the rights. When the impossibility of a triumvirate set-up made itself clear (due to several Federal Communications Commission regulations), the Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS) withdrew from the competition stating: “The future of the venture is marked by so many imponderables ...’ Fears of censorship Another side of this production and equipment package concerns censorship. The Soviets want their own technicians and cameramen to operate the equipment. Some American network officials fear that the cameras will for this reason focus on feats the Russians want to be seen, possibly denying complete coverage of all events. And since the technological end of the wires will be controlled by Soviet hands, the one area where a network normally has freedom—commentary may be relegated to a less influential position. One sports writer suggests: “About the first time an NBC announcer starts to question the Soviet cheating, somebody will pull the plug.” Also hinted at during the negotiations was the possibility of cultural programming hours centering on Soviet life, which many feel will be segments designed to glorify that country’s political ideology. UUP AAUP , echelons' of the pay scale. Brown feels this action will lower the competitive edge of the University Centers and thus . lessen their ability to attract highly qualified personnel. He added that this was his own opinion, and not necessarily that of AAUP. UUP Buffalo Chapter President Charles Fall replied to Brown’s accusations saying, “There is no way in my view that the contract erodes tenure. The concept of tenure is very nebulous, coming out of long tradition, and it has really been enforced in a kind of gentleman’s agreement fashion. It never had any real legal status. UUP wants to put some contract support into tenure. the that “It’s evident University is in a period of retrenchment.

Fall said the grievance procedure is sufficiently rigorous without the use of arbitration. He added that arbitration involves the hiring of authorities outside the system to act as judges, and outsiders would not have enough personal knowledge of Association have been circulating 9.30 E i/£/? y -/ CORNER - 11.30 pm .. statements which suggest that professors at University Centers should get together and bargain separately from other SUNY units. Fall claims this action would be illegal, since the Taylor Law requires that all public university and college employees in New York State bargain as a single unit. Brown’s opinion regarding the leveling of the pay scale irritates Fall, who feels that a person getting a $1000 raise whould not be complaining about someone else’s $275. Fall said UUP is not trying to bring down the quality of or make unreasonable demands on SUNY .centers, but rather is the providing lower-level instructors, who do most of the teaching, with an adequate salary. “I’m not sure the detractors, the fat cats, are particularly interested in that,” he added. Fall believes the UUP contract is the best yet, being the result of months of intensive ,14 negotiation. All . votes on the contract must be received by UUP March 7th, and will be counted March 8th. If passed, the contract will be effective through the 1978-79 school year. AAUP can only bid for UUP’s the interim position during periods between contract signings. If the vote endorses the new contract, AAUP will continue its efforts against UUP in 1979. Otherwise, challenge cards will be distributed this month, and AAUP will require the endorsement of about 5000 SUNY staff members (one third of the staff) in order to challenge UUP. If AAUP receives these endorsements, the SUNY staff will then vote on the issue. "He must work to put human military power nation's priori ties and private needs profit above in our " Sponsored by C.

To the Editor A crucial time . . I find it hard to believe that you or any of your reporters didn’t hear about the Christmas bonuses that Art Lalonde gave to certain Sub-Board division directors before it appeared in the paper on Feb. 28. . Today is an important day Today members of the Graduate Student Employees Union are scheduled to meet with President Robert Ketter in Hayes Hall. We hope that all students, especially undergraduates, will turn their attention toward Ketter's replies to the Union demands. The GSEU has called a demonstration and informational picket to assemble at 2:30 p.m. in the Center Lounge of Norton (Squire) Hall. If you have made up your mind to support the GSEU, this is a good time to show it. If you haven't, this is a good time to find out what it's about. . . to show your concern . Why should you support GSEU? I knew about it six days before I read it in The Spectrum', so did many others. We were informed Feb. 23 in a sociology class. What’s the purpose of a newspaper if it doesn’t report what happens when it happens? Furthermore, when you did print the story you didn’t give all the facts. You let Mr. Lalonde defend himself, not mentioning that he didn’t have the authority to give out the money in the first place. He acted entirely upon himself! Playing Santa Claus! Deciding who’s been good and who to give a “gift to.” The article didn’t mention anything at all about corporate embezzlement; or that it is illegal for a not-for-profit corporation to award bonuses. No 'action is being taken against. Lalonde yet, but the B.S.U. is being taken to court over mismanagement of club funds. And how can we trust Mr. Lalonde to sit on a committee to discuss monetary policy changes, when he decides where our money goes without letting us know, let alone consulting us. Why should Sub-Board division directors get bonuses when they are already being paid from the monies of our students’ activities fee. The $400 he gave out could have brought a speaker in; or an issue something for of “New World Orchestra” out; or the students with their money. I thought Sub-Board’s motto is, “We don’t exactly throw your money around.” Possibly for this reason alone (although there are many others) we should consider having our student government for 'course crediL Then there would be no stipended positions and no monetary rewards. Anyone could take part in student government by registering for the class (or just attending it). There wouldn’t be a contest among the parties on who can get the best deal on drinks at a local bar to get elected. Petitions to hold a carried by graduate student staff. The Union has fought for better wages, guarantee of tuition waivers now threatened by cutbacks, comprehensive medical insurance and worker's compensation, and restoration of cut graduate and teaching assistantships, But the Union has addressed itself to issues affecting the entire University, not just the plight of graduate and teaching assistants. The issues which concern the Union are also crucial to I am shocked at the article on Arthur LaLende handing out bonuses. Mr. LaLende claims to take the whole burden for his actions on himself. I’m very happy to hear that, the boy has spine, but an unpleasant amount of gall. However, this doesn’t mitigate the fact that it was my money that he’s willing to take all the credit of giving away. A bonus is not specified in the Rules I don’t believe. Mr; LaLende claims & Regulations, that all those who received bonuses “deserved” them. Mr. LaLende made the decision, however. I don’t believe anyone deserves any bonus whatsoever, and since it is my money the generous employer is giving away, I think that ought to mean something. In the first place, no one told these people to serve in the positions they serve, they asked for it and if their jobs aren’t done in a superior manner they should be kicked out. If they (the jobs) are done in a superior manner, they ought to be retained. It is that simple. The money ought to be handed back or the recipients and Mr. LaLende should be prosecuted. This is especially important since this “bonus” was handed out in secret, like graft, ominously like corruption. We are treated to front page features on the corruption of the BSD percent, you might expect ten to fifteen percent of the admitees of Mr. LaLende belongs to the very same group of people who so righteously condemn the Blacks for their irresponsibility with student funds. I would far prefer to have the Blacks be unaccountable for $680 of money they spent to fund their activities for! people at large than have one dime go as a “bonus” to people belonging to some sort of pompous ruling clique whom I suspect I dislike and disapprove of in any case. The hullabaloo over the BSU has often been characterized by the Blacks as having racial overtones. I suspect this is true. After all, if the Blacks aren’t permitted to give themselves a little outing on student money then why should the whites? Racism, or some other type of repugnant arrogance is probably the answer. I suggest a thorough investigation into the a matter, full disclosure of all suspected referendum on a student government for course improprieties and, if the situation warrants, credit are in the Record Coop.

The much talked about* “Christmas Ass-Wipping” was the high point of tensions that had been building since the Funkedelics concert. Apparently there was bitterness on the part of BSD stemming primarily from political power-plays within SA. It was felt that UUAB had usurped power over minority concerts that, based on an understanding by all parties concerned, rested previously with BSU. (Whether it was ever correct to segregate concerts is a question we should all be asking at this point, but to get back to the main issue.) Taking this power from BSU was interpreted by many minority students as questioning the ability of BSU to manage and stage concerts or to describe it in one word racism. In other words, UUAB was interpreted as saying to BSU, “You are not sufficiently competent to put on your own concerts, therefore, we will do it for you.” This misunderstanding never cleared up (due to a lack of communication by all parties concerned) and rumors, gossip and misinformation were allowed to spread unchecked continuing to feed the fire. The Norman Connors-Vicky Sue Robinson concert boycott was BSU’s response and was quite successful, the concert bringing a 10,000 dollar loss. After this, whatever chance there was for communication and reconciliation shrank to almost nothing as the student government split into two separate camps. Those who dared cross the line were labeled either nigger-lovers or ucle Toms. The issue of mismanagement of money, whether it should prove to be true or false, was never the primary issue. It was a power struggle which BSU apparently lost. It retaliated with the boycott. The — — . . . David J.

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief executive committee, with Steve Spiegel leading charge, then retaliated by refusing to advance any more money to BSU. I am not saying the executive committee did not have legal justification to do this but it is obvious that this was done, not on its own merits, but because it was something very handy to throw back in BSU’s face. This set the stage for the “Christmas Ass-Wipping” and BSU’s subsequent trial and conviction (the media-event and the audit) in The Spectrum. There was fault on all sides but for some reason the full story was never told. I feel the only way the matter can be cleared up now is to see the transcripts of the University hearing concerning John Lott, George Thomas, Steve Spiegel and Robert Tribble. I have asked to see the transcripts but I am told by Dr. Ronald Stein, assistant to President Ketter, who also seems to have appointed himself chief legal counsel of the administration, that 1 have no legal right to see them. Since the leadership of SA and all of its sub-organizations, however inept and petty are representatives of the (67 going on 70 dollar) taxpayers the students.

This is bullshit. The administration (Ketter) has handled the entire situation very poorly and should resign at once. We have our own “Baby Watergate” right in Hayes Hall. Now is the time to demand the truth and get to the heart of the matter. If Ketter hasn’t enough backbone to publicly comment on the matter because it is a little too sensitive, then he has no business being president of this University. Perhaps it is time for new administrations at both the SA and the University itself. _ , - Gilbert Lawrence Page six . The Spectrum . Monday, 7 March 1977 �Guest Opinion by Drew S. Mendoza I’ve written this arti.de to tell anyone who happens to read this my feelings about a few things related to S.A. and more specifically, money. For those of you not acquainted with me, 1 am the Director of the Community Action Corps, as well as being a student here. I’ve participated in several S.A. related activities. So much for my history. As 1 mentioned above, the problem is Mandatory Student Fee money. This money is the backbone of S.A. which also makes it the life line of every single student club, organization, and activity on this campus: encompassing everything from the accounting club to the ski club and everything in between. Being a Social Work major, I do not claim to be the economic wizard of Norton Hall. However, I have spent enough time with CAC, Sunshine House, and S.A. to have a good understanding of how the system works, i.e., budgets, etc. What follows is my interpretation of how the budgets are created and awarded. To begin with all the clubs, etc. hand in a budget proposal to S.A. So far so good. 1 think some discussion about budgets, especially large budgets, is war rented here. Perhaps a hyperthetical example would help to explain the point I’m trying to make,. Imagine that Joe X is the president of a club on campus that uses Mandatory Student Fees. Let us also imagine that his club needs $20,000 in order to reach its goals. Now then, logic would dictate, to me anyway, that our friend Joe would request a budget of $20,000. Right? WRONG! What really happens is this: Joe will make a budget request for $26,000 claiming that S.A. might just as well give him nothing if he doesn’t get his $26,000 because he will not be able to function adequately with anything less. This is called padding the budget. What happens now is that S.A. reviews the budget and recommends that Joe gets, let’s say $23,000 (you see S.A. assumes that everyone pads their budgets anyway so they can always cut a budget to an extent). In review then we have an organization who only needs $20,000 but requests $26,000 assuming that S.A. will cut it down, which S.A. does and makes a final recommendation of $23,000. To make a long story sfiort Joe X now has $3,000 more than he needs and some other club is going to receive less money than they need. The other club is likely to be one of the smaller organizations since money can be equaled with power. The less money you have the less power. It’s a lousy thing, but it is reality nonetheless, until now. . I'm not doing this to give anybody a snow job. CAC has been as guilty of this as any other drib in the past, but the time has come for a change. I have sent a letter to the S.A. treasurer instructing him to take back $2,000 from this year’s CAC budget for the simple, purpose that we don’t need it. Not that we couldn’t spend it (I’d love to have the office carpeted) but we just don’t need it. Let me leave you with this thought. Imagine what would happen if all the clubs, that could afford it, either returned money that they don't need or better yet, stopped padding their budgets. There would not only be enough money to award a decent budget to the smaller clubs, but r and this is perhaps most important of all, we wouldn’t have to raise the amount of Mandatory Student Fees to $70.00. If this article is published. I’ll no doubt be viewed as a troublemaker by many of my peers, but being the martyr that 1 am, I’m willing to sacrifice both CAC’s and my own popularity for the good of the entire student body. i 1 GSEU: deja vu To the Editor. Abortion debate criticized To the editor: As members of the University Community, we like to bring an awareness to others concerning a debate between Bill Baird, of the Bill Baird'Center, formerly The Parents Aid Society, and Jean Koch, a member of the Buffalo Right-to-Life Organization, sponsored by the, S.A. Speakers Bureau, on March 2. First, though it may have been termed a debate, we feel this was not the case at all. Mr. Baird is a national figure with extensive experience and knowledge, and it was an insult to his intelligence and ours to be matched with Jean Koch, who was not prepared on a comparable level, in regard to either facts or qualifications. In addition to this debate being poorly matched, it was also poorly organized. There was no format and this became more obvious as the debate continued. During the question and answer period especially, whatever guidelines were being used only served to hinder a logical progression of speakers. Upon speaking to Mr. Baird after the debate, several other irregularities became apparent, ne was the fact that the Right-to-Life Organization was on campus the preceding day, with propaganda including films, and Mr. Baird was not even given the courtesy of this knowledge, in order to respond accordingly. Further disregard of Mr. Baird’s rights as an invited guest was shown by an absence of information provided to him about the general forum and his opponent’s credentials. Saddest of all was the verbal abuse and personal attacks directed to so dedicated an individual as Mr. Baird, irregardless of any “moral” stance. It was also disappointing to note the lack of community turnout on so controversial and important an issue. To add to this, there was an obvious absence of outside media coverage. The power of interests pushing for an anti-abortion amendment is tremendous, and the consequences of such actions are far-reaching. This reality cannot be ignored. It is vital that concerned individuals defend their rights and freedom of choice by contacting their legislators in support of the U.S. Supreme Court decision in favor of legalized would abortions. Susan Marafind Maureen Hanley Correction February 23 article on the Graduate Employees’ Union, it was .stated that (GSEU lawyer Sue) Silber seemed to feel optimistic with regard to escaping any penalties should there be any prosecution.” Any impression that Silber was advocating or condoning any evasion or violation of the law is incorrectly inferred. In Students a If the sentiments in Mr. Vijay Patel’s letter to The Spectrum last Friday sounded remarkably like those of the Ketter administration, we suggest you call Dr. Ketter’s office at 831-3301 and ask for Mr. Patel; you will find that he is employed there. Rather than being the concerned but uninvolved graduate student his letter implies him to be, he is in fact an employee in Dr. Ketter’s office. What we have here is a repetition of last year’s ploy published in the Reporter in the midst of the G.S.E.U. strike vote. Only this time the administration is not even so honest as to put forward their positions and distorted information in their own name, but instead attempt the charade of having a graduate student mouth them. As graduate student employees in the English Department and active supporters of the efforts of the GSEU to defend the rights of graduate employees, we feel it necessary to respond to the extreme distortions and in many cases actual untruths put forward by Mr. Patel. Mr. Patel’s opening paragraph should be sufficient to demonstrate his lack of knowledge regarding the issues and actions he so willingly denigrates. The GSEU has not, as Patel asserts, decided to strike from March 14 through 19. The G.S.E.U. has called for a strike referendum during 18; a strike the. week of March 14 through referendum is a vote during which the individual TAs and GAs, not the union leadership will decide whether or not a strike is necessary if the quality of graduate employment and education is ever to be , improved. Let us attempt to clarify some of the inaccuracies and untruths: One) Dr. Ketter can act on many of the issues we are presenting, e.g., class size, affirmative action, 2 year/4 year rule, workman’s compensation, campus security, etc. In addition he can insure that the state officials who do have the power to negotiate on the other items will meet with us. This same office, the Office of Employee Relations (O.E.R.) can voluntarily recognize us; it is Dr. Ketter’s responsibility to convice them to do so. Two) The allocation of TA/GA lines is a budgetary item like any other. It is included in the budget if it,is necessary that it be there. A contract with the university, like the faculty contract, but not in conflict with it, will insure the presence of those lines in the budget. Lines which are contracted for are fixed budgetary items. Three) Mr. Patel’s objections relating to tuition waivers, l.R.S. and union dues are based on incorrect information. First, every public statement made by the GSEU with respect to tuition waivers indicates that we consider the maintenance of our tuition waivers absolutely crucial. It, or a sufficient salary amount, will be in the contract we negotiate. The statement about l.R.S. is simply not true, graduate employees on this campus are being taxed in greater numbers every year and those graduate students who are audited have been required to pay back taxes for the years when they claimed exemption. There is no guaranteed exemption for graduate employees at this time. Patel’s belief that TAs and GAs would be forced to pay exorbitant union dues is a hypothetical statement having no relation to any present or proejcted practices on the part of ,the GSEU. Union dues are ten dollars per academic year, » and as New York State has a right-to-work law, dues are only collected from voluntary donors. Four) Patel’s objection which claims that only lazy and incompetent graduate students need more than four years of funding to complete work for their degrees ignores the actual situation in which we find ourselves. National averages for degree completion are well over four years, so much so that on this campus some departments. Physics for example, have extended the time for available funding. As our numbers decrease and class sizes increase, TAs and GAs are subjected to an increased workload which takes time away from our academic work. We are not asking for open-ended employment; we are insisting that the realities of the present situation be faced and that funding be extended for the time it has been demonstrated it takes to earn the degree. Five) Patel claims that we live off the taxpayers’ money; perhaps that is his sense of his position in Ketter’s office, but it is certainly not how we feel about our work. We are employees of the State University and through our employment we perform vital services without which this University could not effectively function. We do not conclude, as Patel does, that we would be better leaving the University and working for four and five times our present income, but rather our commitment to our students, our academic work and the future of public education creates a dissatisfaction which must be turned into active protest. Six) Patel claims that the GSEU’s negotiating stance of academic amnesty for undergraduates was a ploy to gain support. Untrue. The public articulation of that stance came about only after with our very active extensive meetings undergraduate support committee. We do not need to make false promises to the undergraduates, our interests and needs coincide. Seven) Patel criticizes the GSEU for not recognizing the administration as another group working to better conditions. He cites their record of four years of publicly claiming more funds for TAs and GAs as its first priority to be indicative of administrative concern. We question this for two reasons. One, what confidence should we have in an administration which is repeatedly unable to make any headway on its priorities?!! this administration is- our advocate, it is certainly not a successful one. Second, we question the very notion that graduate education and employment is a priority, having seen hothing in our three years on this campus to substantiate such a claim. Promises do not indicate support or activism. We don’t want promises; we want a contract. Finally we have to ask Patel, what do you propose to do instead?You criticize but you offer no alternatives. Would you wait patiently, would you petition, would you write letters, would you j |. ; 1 i i ! j tried these things. You j propose nothing. We believe that we speak tor many graduate employees when we say that this kind of i lobby; we have already with the acquiescence when faced deterioration of our university can not continue. It has gone on for much too long already. We support the GSEU strike referendum and encourage other members of the U.B. community to do so as well. passive Monday, 7 March 1977 Vicki Hill Michael Sartisky . The Spectrum .

What we have to do is -correct these misconceptions.” “many by Beth Simon Spectrum Staff Writer that The current decline in City University (CUNY) registration has sparked a wide ranging program to make enrollment more attractive. CUNY’s uncertain future has also prompted proposals by Governor Carey’s Commission on post-secondary the education to reorganize structure of City and State Universities into two new statewide systems. CUNY has cited many reasons for the falloff in registration them is Among numbers. widespread student apathy. “They see their brothers and sisters who have degrees and they can’t get jobs, so they figure why should we bother,” explained Angelo B, Proto, Director of the CUNY Office of Admissions Services. Another reason for reduced registration numbers is a strong to tuition among adversity Tuition was freshmen. prospective levied on CUNY students for the first time in City University’s history this past September. Proto argued that with the financial aid package available, most needy students can still have all or the major part of their tuition subsidized. He said further that Deadlines virtually eliminated In an attempt to do just that. City University has begun a serious campaign to increase its enrollment figures. Recruiters and counselors have been sent into the city’s high schools with shortened, simplified registration forms and financial aid information. They have also been empowered to grant “instant admissions.” Thus far about 22,000 students have been accepted. to Besides its campaign disseminate information, CUNY has also lowered its admissions standards. Qualifying grades for such senior colleges as Brooklyn, Queens, Hunter, and City have been lowered from 87 to 80. The first deadline for February admissions was extended to March 1 and then virtually eliminated. This allows CUNY freshmen to be admitted, during the first week of every month through September. In an effort to befriend CUNY’s legislators, non-city Board of Higher Education voted last week to charge out-of-city New service for handicapped New Office open to serve students with any physical medical handicap.

This has resulted in a $250.00 savings for out of city residents. Additional $10 million asked 32,000 high school Only seniors have applied for fall admissions thus far, compared with 46,000 at this time last year. According to J.

He contends that if no more than the current 32.000 apply, “we’ll accept The Stanford Daily, after six years of litigation, was awarded S47.500 in legal fees Feb. 2 by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in a search suit against the Palo Alto, Calif., Police Department.

End of Geneseo momentum; beginning of Buffalo rally. Cousins also thought the team was rebounding very well, and was boxing out better than it had been at the start of the year. Hills grabbed an offensive rebound midway through the second half, and put it in, to continue Buffalo’s rally. That gave the Bulls a six-point lead, and minutes later, Dellwardt also put in an offensive rebound to increase Buffalo’s lead even further. Buffalo’s offense consistently found the open man in the second half, and as a result, they forced very few shots. Harvey, O’Malley and Frazier were all on target in the second half, and Buffalo outscored the Knights 26-10 over the game’s last thirteen minutes. “We worked a lot on our defense yesterday,” Buffalo coach Liz CousThs. “We were committing ourselves too early, trying for too many steals. I think we’re getting better there.” Inde'ed, it was Buffalo’s defense which shut out Geneseo for the first nine minutes and twenty seconds of the game.

The “University of New York” would consist of City University’s graduate center and its four oldest City, Hunter, senior colleges Brooklyn, and Queens. Included as well would be the State University’s (SUNY) centers at Albany, Binghamton, Buffalo and Stony Brook. The “Empire State University” would be comprised of the remaining City arid State colleges organized into three regional groupings. The Metropolitan area grouping would cover New York City and Nassau and Suffolk — Counties. The proposed reorganization has aroused sharp criticism from City University officials. A statement condemning the proposal was issued jointly by Robert J. Kibbes, Chancellor of City University, and Harold M. Jacobs, Chairman of the City’s Board of Education. “It is difficult to understand either the educational or fiscal benefits to be derived from the proposed arrangement. It would also appear that the proposal Would significantly and adversely affect the range nad quality of educational opportunities available to residents of New York • City,” it read Abolish tenure, salary increment CUNY’s faculty is not pleased with the proposal either. Irwin H. Polishook, President of the Professional Staff Congress, stated that the goals of the reorganization, could be accomplished within the existing system. The New York Times reported Dr. Polishook as saying that the only rationale he could see for the proposed arrangement was that it would save money by abolishing City University’s faculty tenure and salary increment system the State University does not have. The plans for City University are now very tentative but no matter what the outcome, the situation does not look bright. The dropping of the admissions average from 87 to 80 is bound to have disastrous effects on the academic future of the system. quoted The Times one University official as saying, “You take a high school senior. He might have an 80 average. But he’s had no trigonometry, no foreign language. His 8 0 average guarantees his entry. Then, when he’s in', what’s to become of him, say in an atmosphere such as that in Queens College?

Wearing jeans and down jacket, he puts a cigarette to his mouth. Moving quickly, he’s a little hurried, a little thin. In his wallet lies a silver badge. Dan Jay, 24, is part of a six-man plainclothes unit operating within the Investigative Division of University Police. The Special Problems Unit (SPU) was bom on April 19, 1976. “The problems we had were getting out of hand,” says Investigator Frank A. Panek, “so we decided to try a new approach. The trend today in law enforcement is to blend into the crowd and catch crime when it happens.” SPU is responsible for non-dormitory crimes, which are committed mostly by outsiders to the University community. “We handle crimes that develop a pattern,” explains Jay, “a pattern that we then interrupt.” Regular officers do the initial work going out on calls as they come in and writing up the reports. SPU does follow-up information gathering and surveillance which often lead to arrest. “Last year we made over 50 percent of the arrests in the department,” reports Jay. “We recovered $6247 worth of stolen goods. The men in our unit are aggressive. We enjoy our work and often put in our own time.” Chet Menktena, the unit’s newest member, agrees: “It’s a lot more interesting than giving out parking tickets.” In a very quiet deal last April, Robert J. Kibbee, Chancellor of the City University of New York (CUNY), and other University officials signed a “Program of Cooperation” between the National University of Iran and CUNY. The Shah of Iran has already made a down payment of at least $100,000, and more funds are reportedly forthcoming. This exchange • operation will be based at Queens College, with the computer sciences and linguistics departments heavily involved. One of the most criticized aspects of the program is the setting up at Queens of a center to coordinate all the National University of Iran’s American collegiate programs. This center will maintain a list of all Iranian graduate students here, whether from the National University or not. What this means is that it will now be possible for the Shah and his secret police (SAVAK) to have a continually updated account of not only the academic records of Iranian students in America, but also diverse anecdotal information about their activities in and out of class. Feature Editor — Staked out The Special Problems Unit had its proving ground in the parking lots, which were hit last summer with massive bicycle thefts. “We had ten and fifteen men staked out in the lots some nights,” recalls Panek. Ripoffs went down 50 percent as a result of the campaign and its arrests. Two purse theft rings were also uncovered last year. Over the past two years there have been numerous reports of the “Lockwood Flasher,” a man who would expose himself to women in the library. “We cleared it up recently with one arrest,” says Jay. “One guy admitted to 15 counts of Public Lewdness.” SPU has had no concentrated narcotics efforts, Jay claims. “We don’t bother with it unless it is brought to our attention.” When asked about the February 9 marijuana arrest of six students whose car was followed from Porter parking lot, he replied; “They were smoking right in front of us.” Confiscated drugs and drug paraphenalia are kept locked up in the evidence closet for use in court and are later, Brutality, repression In an article in The Village Voice, Nat Hentoff said, “A quiet $100,000 deal transmogrifies CUNY into a disgusting toady to the Shah and offers a boon to his secret police.” This past October, Le Monde, a Parisien daily, declared that although there are many candidates for the nation which most ferociously violates its —continued on page 4— Camaval carnival The Carnaval of Brazil, which saw throngs of people dancing wildly until the early morning hours last year and the year before, will take place in the Fillmore Room of Norton Union tomorrow, Saturday night, from 8 p.m. until 3 a.m. Sponsored by the Brazilian Club and SA, with support from Spanish Department graduate students, the event has been described by a member of the Spanish Department as “the ultimate in ■ letting it all hang out, Brazilian style.” v Featured will be a ten piece band from Brazil admission will be $2.00 for all. For the first time, prizes will be awarded for the best costumes. Wine, beer (possibly Brazilian) and other refreshments will be provided by Brazilian students. periodically, “destroyed.” Sneaky On a bulletin board in the SPU office are maps of the Main Street and Amherst campuses, All parking lot breakins are plotted here, with orange markers for CB (Citizens Band radio) thefts and white markers for others. “We have almost eliminated CB thefts,” Jay says proudly. “Last week we arrested five adults and one juvenile one a week-long stakeout. They were all outsiders.” Other larcenies are logged on a separate sheet and they too are examined for patterns. SPU is in constant communication with other police departments, including those in Buffalo and Amherst. From them, they receive arrest lists which are studied carefully for nearby addresses and familiar names. Information and photographs of these people are kept on file. SPU can then recognize them on campus. If someone becomes a “good one who is seen in crime vicinities and/or has a past suspect” he will be tailed. “I can tell if somebody belongs on criminal record campus just by looking at them,” says Jay. The men use two-way radios which operate on an unlisted frequency, insuring that their communication will not be monitored. The cars are unmarked. “One day I was in the ummarked car and someone came up and asked, ‘Can I park here or will you have me towed away’?” one of the men relates. An evidence kit is carried in the car which is equipped with Polaroid and 35mm cameras and telephoto lenses. Also in the car is a monitor radio which receives calls from sheriff, state, Buffalo and Amherst police departments and a fingerprint kit. Asked if he ever feels sneaky, Jay replied no. “Crime on campus is a serious problem. You have to play at their game and beat them in order to win.” — — - WFVE GONE DISCOUNT!

He sustained bruised ribs along with a possible fracture. Spitz was making his way toward Clement Hall at about 8:30 p.m. when several persons grabbed him from behind. While at least two people held him another struck him in the ribs with some kind of a stick, he said. He then began to fall, so his assailants let him go and he was able to kick one of them in the face. At that point he was then grabbed and thrown on the ground, he added. According to Spitz, there were at least four people involved in the assualt but he said he would be unable to identify any of them. He said that nothing was stolen and that nothing was said.

' \ Show cause action dropped voting SA booth may mix-up Taxpayers’ suit will proceed against Coop invalidate SASU election The Appellate Division of the State Supreme Court in Rochester unanimously upheld a decision dismissing one of two suits registered by Cavages Inc. against the University concerning the Student Association (SA) Record Coop. The show cause action suit, an attempt to shut down Coop operations, was dropped last week, while the Court ordered the taxpayer’s suit to proceed. The Court also upheld a lower court ruling which allows SA to intervene in the suit bn the side of the respondent, University President Robert Ketter; In the taxpayers’ suit Cavages contends that state funds and/or property are being improperly spent. The other suit, which was dismissed, maintained, under Article 78, that Ketter acted arbitrarily and beyond his authority. When it was announced that Cavages had filed suit, SA made a motion to intervene on behalf of Ketter. SA and the University also made motions to have the Article 78 suit dismissed. Testy grounds In dismissing the Article 78 proceedings, the Court Stated, “While it is clear that Cavages has suffered competitive injury, that alone is not a sufficient basis to confer standing upon one who seeks to challenge an official determination which increases competition by allowing an additional competitor to enter the business field.” Charles H. Dougherty, attorney for Cavages Inc., said that since the taxpayers’ suit was new and untested he also filed the Article 78 suit as he “did not want to take a chance.” “What we were also looking for was a clarification for which course of action to take,” said Dougherty. In allowing SA to intervene, the Court said, “A third party will generally be permitted to intervene where he has an actual and ultimate interest in the result of the litigation . . . since the co-operative is a member organization of the SA and is funded solely by mandatory activity fees which are adminstered by the SA, the ability pi the SA to fund one of its member organizations is, at least, indirectly challenged should Cavages prevail, the members of the SA will be adversely affected by the closing of the record cooperative. Under such circumstances, intervention was properly allowed.” . . . Mixed emotions Reactions to the decisions are mixed. Bruce Insana, President of the Coop, was “happy with the decision. It will not affect the Coop except maybe to boost our morale,” he said, adding, “We don’t feel we hurt Cavages because we only sell to students. However, if they [Cavages] claim they are losing money because of us, how come they expanded and opened up a few more stores.” . Dougherty expressed ambivalence about the ruling. “Wje. wditi looking for clarification over which course of action to take. We would have been a lot happier if the court ruled in our favor,” he said. However, Dougherty was pleased that the Court recognized that “Cavages has suffered competitive injury,” claiming this as a victory. But Richard Lippes, counsel for the defense, disagreed. “It doesn’t matter to the defense of our case whether or not Cavages has lost income. Our defense is based on different grounds,” he said. Both lawyers were uncertain as to when the trial would begin. by John Reiss Campus Editor A serious irregularity involving the operation of voting booths may lead to the invalidation and rescheduling of the election for Student Association of the State University (SASU) delegates. As a result of the problem, students were not able to vote for any three SASU candidates, as they were entitled. Three candidates were listed in one verticle column while two others were placed in the adjacent verticle line. However, only one vote could be cast in each column, precluding voting for two or three candidates in the same column. Upon being advised of the situation at Student 1 p.m. Wednesday, approximately Schwartz ordered President Steve Association (SA) all voting for SASU be completed by write-in ballot. Although booth voting for SASU was halted by 1:30 p.m. with tape being placed over the candidates’ names, over 300 votes had already been cast. Schwartz placed the blame on the Board of Elections and termed the error “incredible.” He said the‘ballot was arranged so students could vote for any, but no more than, three SASU candidates. High cost At a meeting of the Elections and Credentials Committee (E&C) late Wednesday night, it was decided that SASU candidates would be queried Thursday on their feelings about the situation. If any of the candidates requested the election be nullified, a new election will have to be held. The candidates’ opinions were not available at press time, but many members of E&C felt certain a second election was inevitable. The elction would be held “as soon as possible,” according to SA Executive Vice President Steve Spiegel. It is conceivable that election could coincide with the decision on a referendum spearheaded by Micheal (Lev) Levinson, calling for academic credit to be given to SA officials in lieu of stipends. According to E&C member Lynn Bittner, such an lection would cost SA approximately $700. Earlier Wednesday E&C heard evening grievances from presidential candidate David Brownstein concerning allegedly illegal actions taken by members of the University Union Activities Board (UUAB) and the Aurora party,against Insight, Brownstein’s ticket. Profanity,, tears and harsh feelings resulted as Aurora and Insight officials clashed with E&C on a number of issues, including Brownstein’s contention that UOAB was deliberately placing posters over his campaign ads. E&C unanimously decided “UUAB was not working for Aurora. A letter will be written to Art Lalonde asking him to deduct a sum from UUAB’s publicity director Harold Leftkowitz’s stipend if it continues.” Another furor arose when Brownstein charged that athletic instructors (coaches) were guilty of coaxing their students in classes to vote for Dennis Delia, one of Brownstein’s opponents, who has been a supporter of athletics as a member of the Student Athletic Review Board (SARB). E&C ruled, “The President of the SA will notify the Athletic Department not to allow instructors to verbally, or by any other means, support or urge voting for Aurora, or any other candidate, on class time.” However, E&C refused to ask coaches not to talk to their teams about the election because, according to Spiegel, “We have no right to do so,” , Formal protest The Coop, which was begun in 1971, was shut down in October 1975 by Edward Doty, Vice Presiden for Finance and Management. In his memo to former Student Association President Michele Smith he stated he “was in receipt of a formal protest from Carl C. Cavage, President of Cavages.” The complaint and the Coop’s failure to comply with the guidelines established in 1971 were cited as reasons for his decision. Students formally protested the closing by holding rallies and marches on the Coop’s behalf. In a matter of hours, a petition with over 4000 signatures was presented to Ketter. Representatives of both the Coop and SA met with Ketter and Doty and, after three meetings, the decision was reversed. The Coop was re-opened in January 1976 under strict financial guidelines, limiting both its inventory and sales, and prompting Cavages Inc. to file suit against the University last spring.

Located in Harriman Room 67S, the Drop-In Center, an extension of the University Counseling Center, will occupy for the first time the level 2 lounge in building 5 of Richmond Quad at the Ellicott Complex- The move has been anticipated for a year and a half, accordingvto director Dorothy Adema. The Drop In Center offers immediate counseling to any member of the University community, on any problem that may be bothering them. There are no applications, no records, no revealing of names. People are encouraged to come if they need only to talk to someone about a problem in day-to-day life. “Sometimes it’s easier to talk to somebody you don’t know rather than your friends,” Adema explained. “We never ask anybody’s name and there’s no follow-up committment to come back.” : not succeeded. GSA urges full recognition of Shanghai Communique President Nixon and late Chinese Premier Chou En-lai. It also signals the time that has long come to pass to bring the US-China relations, into a good, respectful perspective. Since after Truman’s era, unfortunately, US-China relations have been distorted as the US government mistakenly became hostile toward the majority of the Chinese people by maintaining military and diplomatic ties with the then ousted Chiang regime on Taiwan, This very fact has now been long time proven since the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949. Today, implementation by the US government of the Shanghai Communique is the only essential prerequisite to the fundamental recognition of the territorial integrity of the Chinese people: “The United States acknowledges - that all Chinese on either side of the Taiwan Strait maintain there is but one China and that Taiwan is part of China. The United States government does not challenge that position.” It also reaffirms that Taiwan’s status must be answered by the Chinese people themselves. However, by still maintaining military and Those who come to the Drop-tn Center, like the volunteer staff diplomatic ties with the Chiang regime in 1977, the US government is actually preventing the Chinese which counsels there, represent a cross section of University life.

Since its inception five years ago, the Drop-In Center has gradually increased its visibility on campus, and now counsels about 500 students a year. But the Center staff still feels they are difficult to find in their current locations, and are hampered by a lack of publicity. They also indicated an awareness that their hours preclude some students from visiting. Even so, they hope the opening of a new room at Amherst is “just the beginning.” The Drop-In Center is open at Amherst Monday through Friday from 12:30-4:30 p.m. On the Main Campus the center is open from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. ID validation Students can have their ID cards validated for the spring semester in Foster 16 Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays from noon till 3:30 p.m. The office is also open Thursday evenings from 6 to 9 p.m. Students should be aware that they must bring schedule cards along with their ID cards to avoid hassles over identification.

In other areas, such as foreign policy, literature, health care, etc., Hua carried on consistently the policies laid down by Chairman Mao. His thesis on being botK “red and expert” was met with great enthusiasm on the part of the Chinese people. The arrest of the gang of four touched off a nationwide mass debate throughout China. The level of mass participation in the movement is no less than that of the Cultural Revolution in the sixties. Such a mass movement cannot possibly be resulted from mere “personality conflicts” or “power struggle of the politburo members,” as often presented in the U.S. press. The Chinese people, who have been long tampered by so many political movements is not that easy to be manipulated by individuals. This is precisely the reason why Lin Piao and the “gang of four” had play the US government, on this 5th anniversary of the of the Shanghai Communique, the US government must respect the basic internal human right of the Chinese people to solve the Taiwan question by themselves, and move rapidly to establish full diplomatic relations between the United States of America and the People’s Republic of China. To this end, the US government must only take four steps. signing 1. Remove all US forces and military installations from Taiwan; 2. Abrogate the mutual defense treaty negotiated with the ousted Chiang regime on Taiwan in 1954 (P.T.O.): 3. Withdraw diplomatic recognition of the Chiang regime on Taiwan; and 4. Formally recognize the People’s Republic of China as the sole legal territorial integrity and government of the Chinese people and establish diplomatic relations with it. Soonest implementation of the Shanghai Communique by the US government conforms the common and sincere desire of both the American and Chinese peoples across the Pacific and Continent Europe.

Hentoff asked, “What self-respecting institution of higher learning would become affiliated with a patron who literally fries his opponents?” It is a fact that over 50 American colleges and universities have concluded similar pacts with the Shah. The list compiled by the American Council on Education, includes Brown, University of California, Harvard (including the medical school), Michigan and Michigan State, University of Pennsylvania, Georgetown and the Yale School of Medicine. Hentoff cited the section on exchange studies in Iranian languages, culture, and history as an example of the “academic fraudulence” of the Queens College program. “Languages” means Persian, because the Shah has banned the use of other languages even though at least 60 percent of the Iranese people are Azerbaijani, Turkish, Arabic, Kurdish and member — of other minorities. The Shah also has very clear preferences in books, plays and poems, having made it a criminal offense to possess many modem works, let alone write them. Hentoff commented, “The only fruitful seminars in contemporary Iranian literature would have to be held in the Shah’s prisons.” David Speidel, dean of the Science Faculty at Queens, said that he wants to help the Iranian people deal with their “urban environment.” Queens College can be of technoligical use because clean air benefits all, even dismembered prisoners. Joseph Murphy, former president of Queens and a strong advocate of the pact, said that in his search to create jobs, “he wasn’t concerned with ideological niceties, and that the exchange will “teach freedom” to Iranian students. Linguistics Professor at Queens Charles Cairns, the leader of the opposition to the program, replied, It was because of the pre-Shah freedom at Queens that young Iranians came here to study in the first place. Now this setup betrays them.” SAVAK thrives on such educational integrity �AMA, despite opposition profits on Medicare , Editor’s note: This is the last article in a four-part series on the American Medical Association.

They said that UC lawyers could not -demonstrate past instances of discrimination against minority applicants. Had they shown that an affirmative-action program was necessary to remedy obvious racial inequities, UC might have won. Minority attorneys don’t complain directly at the court’s reasoning, but rather at the lawyers failure to produce evidence of past discrimination in admitting students to the Davis med school. Admission records show that during the school’s first year, 1968, in fact, no Chicano or black students were admitted, and in 1969 only three of the school’s 50 students were minorities. Since the case to come before the U.S. court next October or November is an appeal of the California ruling, no additional evidence beyond that which was presented for the state decision September 1976 can be submitted. Reidhaar denies the accusations that UC presented a weak case. He says the evidence submitted to the Court contained “a great deal of statistical information and documentation.” The UC counselor points to recognition by the majority of California Justices of the “importance of • minorities getting in (to legal and medical schools) so that more professionals will return to serve the poor communities.” With this admission, in fact, the Court suggested that the University try an admissions policy based on the applicants economic instead of racial disadvantages.

As a recent article syndicated by Pacific News Service points out, these groups believe that if the reverse discrimination issue must be heard by the Supreme Court, the UC regents should not be the ones offering the defense. Although they hope UC will win Bakke, many of the organizations express discontent with the way UC has treated the issue. They point out, in the PNS article, that lawyers for the Regents only presented one affadavit and one deposition when the California Supreme Court heard the case. That, lawyers for the groups say, is a questionably small amount of evidence considering the profound nature of the issue. One black lawyer remarked, “All the University had to lose was a program they never wanted.” His comment, not outstanding among minority attorneys, stems mainly from the conservative nature of the majority of UC Regents, most of whom were appointed by former governor Ronald Reagan. • Preceeded by a free suppper at 6:00 pm Sponsored by Wesley Foundation �Tuition Increases across the nation by Steve Lemken Special to The Spectrum 9CPS) — In the wake of the maintenance, fuel costs and salaries for faculty and other employees have skyrocketed, with university officials holding little announcement of Carter’s budget hope for for higher education which agreements slashed campus-based student aid by $582 million and reduced the number of awards available by 885,000, the nation-wide tuition increases are hitting students like a funeral hits the closest of kin. Students are going to have to dig harder and deeper for the cash or else many may have to quit until, unless, funds become or accessible. Up in the Big Sky country of Montana, non-resident tuition fees were upped $400 while residents will have to pay one dollar more for each quarter hour of credit. At the University of Montana, the non-resident student will be paying $1,921 and many of them will be hard-pressed to come up with the additional funds. Many of the students polled by the campus newspaper felt that it was unfair that the non-resident fees were increased so much more than resident fees. Tuition hikes across the country range from six to 20 percent. Many reasons are cited for these actions, but the prevailing cause is that Contractual relief. many schools, combined with an unwillingness at the state and federal level to loosen the cash flow to higher education leave administrators trudging a familiar road looking for funds. The costs are, quite simply, being passed on to the students. at Hike to sustain fundamentals At the University of Chicago an eight percent increase has been recommended, which would be, in tuition costs, an additional $100 over this year’s fee of $3,527. The suggestions for that school’s budget also include a further reduction of faculty. Stanford University in California will increase tuition to $4,695 with basic room and board charges upped to $1,970. This represents an overall increase of nearly 10 percent. in Williams College its operating Massachusetts says costs will climb from $17.5 million this year to about $18.3 million next year. Students there will probably see a 7.7 percent hike which totals $5,955 for 1977-78. The added fees are expected to be used for faculty salaries and scholarships. Pennsylvanian students have been told that the governor’s budget will be an austere one and they face a $50-100 increase in the fall. Students were also warned that there will be less educational assistance money which is usually increased whenever tuition is increased. A director of the statewide student association said that the tuition increase “is no service increase” and that it is only an attempt to maintain the present situation. Officials fear that enrollments will drop, adding to the current anticipated lack of resources. while the state’s Educational Coordinating Board recommends Ohio student lobbyists a six percent increase.

Lawrence Hardy Editor’s Note: Lockwood Library has been renamed Abbot Library. Laurels to Mr. Hardy! To change the system To the Editor. In Andrew Lalonde’s response to my statement of directions and goals of SA Academic Affairs he neglected to include a few points. He does not state that he is running for Executive Vice President on the opposition party (this, of course, was an attempt by him to cover his \..*ND biases). In addition, he says that I address “issues of which 1 have no knowledge or failed to investigate.” I feel I have first-hand knowledge of what is going on in academics! I was in this University when the four-course load was attacked and I had to figure out how I could fit five courses into my schedule. I al#o wondered what SA was doing about this problem. To find out, I went to several Faculty-Senate meetings and saw Mr. Lalonde give a “big” two-minute speech during which he favored keeping the four-course load simply because “it’s good.” Thank God that faculty members, students, and The Spectrum showed a unified support to save the four-course load. Mr. Lalonde says that I failed to investigate the issues. Although this is entirely false, I did have trouble with the investigation itself. Hoping to see his files, I made three separate appointments with him, all of which he cancelled. However, obstacles were circumvented, albeit with difficulty (I’m used to dealing with “the Administration”), as I was able to see the SA President’s files. As a matter of fact, complimented me on my Spectrum The preparedness of their interview and on the large amount of research I had done. Mr. Lalonde also said that the issues he deals with are constantly in the news the four-course load, the Colleges, SCATE, TAP, etc. This is true, all those issues but I would not be proud of it were in the news because they were educational innovations that were being attacked. The four-course load almost became a five-course load. The Colleges are becoming fewer and fewer in number and will soon become The College. SCATE’s computerized sheets cannot be understood by half the students, while the other half hasn’t even seen it. TAP allotments have continuously gone down. I could go on and on but I think I’ve proven my point.

The Spectrum Friday, . 4 March 1977 Ertc W. Beth Assistant Professor of Physics and Astronomy �KipMipa®! The genius of Emlyn Williams The soul of Charles Dickens recaptured. our own hearts re-spun by Bill Maraschiello Arts Editor I have the distinct premonition, my dear Copperfield, that something of an extraordinary nature is about to turn up Emlyn Williams has turned up at the Studio Arena Theatre, and not even the hyperbolic Mr. Micawber could have imagined a more extraordinary event. Williams is simply one of the greatest actors in the world, and I doubt that any finer performance than his solo portrayal 6f Charles Dickens will ever be seen on a Buffalo stage unless it is his evening as Dylan Thomas Growing up, which will grace the SAT state later this month. That said, I have some breathing space for particulars. Mr. Williams has been a vital' force in the arts since the thirties, when Night Must Fall, which he wrote and starred in, made him a leading figure in both British and American theatre. As a writer, his other works include the play The Corn Is Green, two autobiographies, George and Emlyn, and several other plays. *-> One man's family In 1950 he conceived a revolutionary theatrical an evening's solo performance as Charles concept Dickens, recreating the novelist's famous readings from his works. Emlyn Williams as Charles Dickens has been an international favorite ever since, as has been its successor, Dylan Thomas Growing Up. These were tje first "one-man shows, the first of the genre to later spawn Hal Holbrook's Mark Twain Tonight! and James Whitmore's Will Roger's U.S.A. and Give 'Em Hell. Harry!, to cite its most - with Forty years plus is a considerable period of activity in any trade, but a shock of white hair is its only evident mark on Williams. Like the greatest of actors and musicians, the stage is for him a place where time is held in* suspension, staved off by the combined power of an audience's collective imagination. To free that imagination English-speaking theatre is nothing less than a feat of magic, and Mr. Williams is a most formidable magician. The essentials The stage is bare but for a podium-like desk, an exact replica of Dicken's own, as is more than a little of this performance. Dickens was a frustrated actor, an inclination he was able to realize in his public readings, which contemporary accounts describe as spellbinding. William's re-creation is perfect. From his initial stroll to the desk forked beard ourthrust, red geranium glowing in his buttonhole he sets down the volumes he carried, removes the first one to be read, checks the spine to be certain he has the correct one, opens it to be place marked, and begins to read. — — Without speaking a word, he gives us the essence of fastidious, exact, dignified, never wasteful of Dickens the slightest motion, in print or elsewhere. He speaks softly, with perfect control and rich elegance. He shows us the pompous Podsnap of Our a rich gallery of characters Mutual Friend and Little Dorrit, the tipsy Mrs. Gamp from Martin Chuzziewit, the amazing "little person" Mr. Chops, a circus midget rising from rags to riches and back. And with all of them, Mr. Williams masterly presents his viewers - — all that is best distinguished offspring in the vast tradition of the Battle cries But there is more to Dickens and Williams. The story "The Black Veil" is eerily affecting; ekcerpts from The Battle of Life and A Tale of Two Cities shows us Dickens the reformer, speaking with a poet's outrage. And the climax is, fittingly, a bedtime story, leaving the listener pertrified but gleeful. To remain fresh in any role after over a quarter of a century speaks of a great love for the part, and I suspect that this is what keeps Dickens alive for Williams, and for us. To play with skill and charm is admirable, but Mr. Williams' Dickens shows the affection Boz himself felt for his David Copperfield: "Like every parent, I have in my heart of hearts a favorite child." Mr. Williams also cast a sobering sidelight: that is this age of media stupor and future shock, to merely ask of an audience that it listen to an actor is demanding indeed. I would estimate that, at this ursurpassable evening, fully a third of the audience left after the first half, many complaining that "it was too slow." No Lear or Hamlet has ever saddened me as much as this sad event. And nothing on any stage touched me more than Mr. Williams, facing the much-lessened arena at the show's end, and thanking the audience for their "great generosity." If not the greatest.actor of our time, Emlyn Williams must certainly be the noblest. Emlyn Williams as Charles Dickens runs through March 16, and Dylan Thomas Growing Up from March 17 through March 26. �Get your Blizzard of 77 souvenir T-shirts in time for Spring UUAB weekend films Break. tout seamy'lifestyles The seamy sides of life artistic and less than artistic are the themes of this weekend's UUAB Film Committee offerings, with Stay Hungry to be shown tonight and Inserts tomorrow and Sunday, both in the Norton Conference Theatre. — Directed by Bob Rafelson of Five Easy Pieces fame.

They drop their roles as studio musicians and take to the road of Top 40 Pop. If there's any artist who has succeeded at all with his phenomenon, George Benson is the first who comes to mind. His latest studio album, In Flight, has arrived along with two other guitarists' claims to fame. Henry Gross presents a follow-up to his reknowned Release with Show Me to the Stage. Elliott Randall, a super session musician from New York City has debuted with Elliott Randall's Nbw York. The three albums vary in terms of commercial success. If Elliott Randall is famous for anything, it is his wizard-like lead guitar for Steely Dan's "Reelin' In the Years." Probably anxious to step into the spotlight, he chose the way of commercial pop and comes out with poor results. I don't care what Randall's producer and promotion men think if you play guitar, it doesn't mean you can sing! Sing when it's necessary, damn it! — Here and there, on New York, Randall sticks in a nice display of his handiwork, but, unfortunately, side one filled up with songs that don't reflect this talent. Besides the cutesy lyrics ("So here I am on cloud nine/Take a look around and the weather's fine/Suddenly a song in the weather's vein/Plug in the juice and watch me rain ..."), all the songs are poorly written attempts at bankable singles. Surely Elliott has all his studio allies to help him out, but not to salvage this wreck. I don't think he's suited for the pop mold and should try something that fits him better. Fellow studio guitarist Lee Ritenour put out a good jazz-rock album last year that involved no singing whatsoever. It seems that Randall is being pushed around by people who want to force him into stardom (namely, Don Kirshner, the executive producer). Get out of that crowd, El', it's not your style. From the streets of New York City again, ex-Sha-Na-Na member but he sings like someone else! He made great Henry Gross can sing waves with his hit canine-love-song-single, "Shannon," doing a good impression of the Beach Boys. On the new album, Show Me to the Stage, the Beach Boys live again, but only to a point. Forty minutes of his whining impersonation gets downright annoying. I read somewhere that Gross likes to play southern boogie for which he was well known before success came. The ten tunes on this album show practically none of this affection at all. Only at the end of one song, "String of -Hearts," does Henry start to burn, but he gets doused-out in the fade-out. - Genesis, Wind and Wuthering (Atco) Pink Floyd, Animals (Columbia) Jethro Tull, Songs From the Wood (Chrysalis) It is an unfortunate, but almost universally accepted truth that any strong, creative rock band is destined to remain that way throughout only a small portion of its career. Excesses of praise, money and popular demand do strange things to rock musicians, often at the expense of their recordings and live performances. Among the most common syndromes are: 1) Band members go separate ways, some or all of them certain that their individual talents will stand alone as well as they had in situ; 2) Band remains together, becomes self-indulgent, and deliberately ignores audiences and what they want to remains together, becomes 3) hear; Band money-conscious and uninnovative, wearing out whatever formula had made them famous in the first place; and 4) Band members die of drug overdoses and motorcycle accidents. Concerning exceptions to these rules, England has had more luck in spawning long-standing rock the Rolling Stones, the Who acts than America has and the Kinks have survived since the early sixties, although each has succumbed, in one way or another, to at least one of the aforementioned pitfalls. However, any real hope for future artistic achievement must center around some of the bands born in the late sixties, not hampered by the "British Invasion" or later Blues-rock identities, and therefore more free to experiment. Genesis, Pink Floyd and Jethro Tull are three such late sixties-born outfits, albeit at differing levels of career development. The newly released albums by each of these mainstays of weirdness are professional, state-of-the-art exercises in "progressive rock," each in turn guaranteed to please their respective audience (or, as the case may be, their common audience.) Genesis, an English cult band formed in 1968, has successfully lived through the departure of lead singer/theatricist Peter Gabriel, going on to produce two quality albums which have indelibly marked them for steadily increasing popular acceptance. The extraordinarily latest, Wind and Wuthering, is an and musically competent as well-produced album, memorability of likeable, but lacking the specific epic Tail, its Trick of the on A most of the songs are very predecessor. While the members of Genesis good melodists and arrangers, their total songwriting eloquence is marred somewhat by whimsical or irrelevant lyrics, and occasional overdependence on mood rather than substance. — Prodigal Sun Even though the vocal prowess of drummer Phil Collins is beginning to surpass that of the inconsistent Gabriel, Wind and Wuthering'% strong points are its instrumental interludes, rather than his signing. "Eleventh Earl of Mar” opens side one and is alternating structurally 'typical, flawless Genesis and rhythmically complex electronic foot-stomp with quiet dreamland: acoustic guitars, fake strings, and those lyrics... — Gross is using these songs to show he is a Child of the 60's Sweet Pop. He does a weak re-make of the Beatles' "Help" because he doesn't sound like he should be singing the song. On side two, the Wilson I'm fighting Gravity falling My Daddy won't let them get me A voice screams seems to be calling The face turns features are burning. Brothers get the Supreme Rip-Off with "What a Sound," which even goes as far as copying production techniques Brian used (harp The disjointed "One for the Vine," although glissandos, cinder blocks echoing, word repetition, etc.). starting off weakly, showcases some interesting If anything on Show Me to the Stage entertains, it's the second theme development, which makes the song time Henry Gross uses sexual send-ups as cover photos.

An Orwellian social commentary of sorts, the album is divided into: "Pigs on the Wing (Part One and Two)," "Dogs," "Pigs (Three Different Ones)" and "Sheep." Tull's drastic personnel alternations, as well as The symbolism is obvious and rather trite in places: Anderson's constant sytlistic trail-and-error have finally paid off with an album which is fresh, lively and unpretentious, a complete expression of the Old The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want English Folk/Classical-rock blend which Anderson He makes me down to He has used occasionally in the past.

Hopkins and Salah Bilal Oku setting up bass and cello, equipping the strings and the bow with Classic moments. February 25. I'm at the Tralfamadore Cafe around, I'd say, 8:00 p.m. awaiting Anthony Braxton and Dave Holland. I guess some of the customers there were slightly shocked by my habit of practicing (paper was all over the place) and the water I was sipping on. Oh well First to walk in was Anthony, who, upon entering, broke a thin string stretched from freezer to piano leg, presumably to separate the stage from the spectators. Braxton looked at the string, mildly puzzled. I mumbled something to the effect of "that's supposed to be a barrier," and the man who has been labeled as 'intellectual with too much composition in his improvisation' (whatever that means!) broke into the widest grin I have e' and I've seen some big grins in my day, but few as real. Breaking barriers. "This has to be an auspicious I thought, moment," and sometimes we think more than we think, we which is know knowing to more than preferable you think you know? Anyway, the thought was more correct than I knew, as Anthony (alto soprano sax, sax, clarinets including bass and contrabass, flutes, and the mammoth mother, the contrabass saxophone) put it out there. Dave came a little later. ... the live ammo of lightning-quick fingers and a deep delicacy few can match. As if sensing the tension strung in the air, the beginning is See Saw, and anybody who doubted before knew that evil spirits would be exorcised this night: either hung to rot. in the goodness of the Music, or taken back voluntarily by the self-inhibited, as by News reporter.

YEEEEAAAH! as Anthony yodels fiercely on alto and within the apparent wildness of the field hollering (l/Ve are the for ground broken implementation.) is its core; the flutelike sweetness of discovery. Dave, jumping with more than fingers now, senses, and flamingos are summoned for opinion in this birdsong. of conference fluently and Expression fluctuates the people are immersed in more than ritual. Throughout the evening the pair shared their artistry and their tasty interplay, ranging from chamber music to suspenseful satire, each note beckoning expansion between the planes. There's the beautiful, beautiful rendition of "Impressions" exposing Dolphy-like elasticity bouncing, the precision and strong direction only a Braxton, a Coltrane or such can take: Growth met to fill the potential of a given designation. Anthony with sopranino and clarinet stomping, prancing, bobbing up and down/Pan is one vision yet I couldn't help thinking that Monk would love to see this/yet another branch of a vast tree flitting and fluting swaying as the wind. Forms like "Q & A," "Tune 2 Side 2" from Five Pieces 1975, and more, form the air as bass plays horn, contrabass clarinet is hot meditation, and contrabass sax strides freely so hot at times you can hear multidimensional convergence, voice screaming on horn voice depths plunging onward. Damn! At one point Anthony picked up an instrument, with its stand still attached. The gawkers there out their already space to spaced-out minds thought it a part of the show, and were really put out when the stand dropped and Anthony looked at it, shrugged, and smiled to the audience. Those awake (and there were many) really got down to that! Theories One of the most beautiful contributions given here is an RECORDS Anthony Braxton, Duets 1976 with Muhal Richard Abrams (Arista) "Miss Ann" represents brilliant romping. Humor used properly is a vehicle for the most serious spontaniety of all. The seriousness of creation presents us with the beauty of questions that each person living should have asked himself long ago. Like "why can't we grow in tune to friendship? (or at least deep understanding)." Eric smiles. The mystique of the magic forest forms "Tune 2 Side 1." Trees bear us deep and scampering whispers, and nymphs skip in step to ultimate destination, defined in earthly dream. "Tune 3 Side 1" is a portrait for Self. A very hip giant walks through crowds stumping their own growth. People running scared in the street collide with themselves, trying to avoid the trail. "Don't you know trails will be made? 'Cause beanstalks are slick, with no steps. Maybe we'll learn." The giant sighs and departs, leaving deep roots behind to shake the ground. Thieves are stung and, wincing, behold the way we were as Scott Joplins's "Maple Leaf Rag" returns to the roots for growth, rather than displacement. Dance is methodical and spirited, instead of method Seeking spirit. "Tune 2 Side 2" is a mystery show in double. Song is the shadows of morning forming protection. From the facetious music of alley cats. The panther seeks an answer to broken yowls and slinky prattle.

Prodigal Sun �RECORDS IcCoy Tyner, Focal Point (Milestone) This is an album of earth celebration, of which "Mode For iulcimer" is the Center. McCoy is the ceremony and participant. There re no bystanders, and no desire to be one here. Join us. Mr. Bridgewater's soprano has a tranquil tone, yet the message □ntains the energy of urgency. Saying more than 'please.' 'You are for whom the bell tolls.' Saud is the bell, on sitar-like dulcimer as well as piano, singing like a swan on water as the tablas of Guilherme Franco «hed rain. Gary Bartz alto is whispering loudly. Listen. The elements are dancing to the cycle of life. The shifting patterns iof nature are calling, and are called. "Mes Trois Amis," opening the album, features Charles Famborough on bass, calling the future for WtcCoy's three songs, for whom the tune is dedicated. Future beckons powerfully thru Joe Ford on alto. Joe is one with the long denied birthright, screaming sweetly to break the deceptive fog that lingers on home when the leasers of the land do not understand. Understand. Joe is the Fire. Co mplimenting this is piano and percussion (joined here by Mf. Gravatt) hinting of the thunder and rain preluding the sun. "Parody" is the storm laughing, revealing how serious humor actually is. Is parody a whimsical version of a whimsical world? If so, which is the parody? Constructive humor is a serious realm, especially when laughter comes cheaply, and too often with the cheap things, not at. With this, we move to the quiet revelation of "Indo-Serenade." Quiet, remember, is not silent, and this serenade does not lull. Joe returns (on flute), a bird flying on the winds of samba, enjoying the dips and spirals of journey. Ron meditates for movement as the scent of magic woodlands embrace the arrangements here and throughout. Mr. Bartz's closing clarinet-weaving-around-flute illustrates this. Having covered the center, we prepare for "Departure," which is naturally a return of sorts, since your roots are a part of your forever. The tune rides on power, the Orchestra giving us realms once thought of as science fiction, if we simply permit reception. Space is occupied, and we have always been out there. Within. (There is a mistake on the album's solo credits here, but you find out where. This is your experience, too.) "Departure" is the spirit advancing. "Theme For Nana" is the rest that sleeps for awakening. This tribute to Saud's mother-in-law is the magicks of midnight brewing softly in effervesence. Bubbles that shatter and build. Joe is the dove, cooing in the twilight of the world to Herald the stars for union. Sound is Light and Light is the force of a piano playing seriously.

However, I must say that Corky Laing’s Makin’It On The Street pleasantly surprised me. - If I had had any predispositions about this album, they may have been to expect hard electric rock, based on the fact that Lainge is a former member of both Mountain and the West, Bruce, and Laing bands. Or I may have expected soft, folksy music, based on the fact that Laing is pictured The jazzy feeling on this album is attributable to the "Muscle Shoals Horn Section," a quite talented five-man group, plus two soloists, Randall Bramlett and Frank Vicari, who add a bluesy feeling with their saxophone work. Eric Clapton appears on this album, although we are (curiously) never told where, and Joe English, the drummer for Paul McCartney and Wings, lends a hand on the final song, "Heaven." All the musicians are competent and professional, arrangements are slick, and this album leaves nothing to be desired. However, most LP's have flaws, and Makin' it On The Street is no exception. In fact, this album has two major flaws. First of all, there is a problem with Laing's vocals. He simply does not sing that well, although at times he sounds a little bit like Bruce Springsteen. Laing does not slur his words like Springsteen does, but his voice is rough and detracts from the instrumentation behind it. The vocal shortcomings were particularly disturbing on my initial listening of this album, but overall it seems to get better somehow on subsequent listenings. The other major problem is his lyrics, which are generally rather poor. It's too bad he chose to publish a lyric sheet with the LP, because a listener generally tends to read along at first and pay especially close attention to the words, something which should be avoided at all costs. I couldn't help but grimace at Laing's "social commentary" in the song "Don't You Worry:" holding an acoustic guitar on the front cover illustration. Don't you worry About the crime in the street, ozone in the air, But I never expected the jazzy rock n' roll Or crooked politicians, or the subway fare. which I found. Makin' It On The Street has elements Don't you worry about the T.

Corky Laing is one of three guitarists on this album, but his strongest musical talents lie in the use At least he's an optimist. His lyrics are of percussion instruments. Laing is credited as admittedly not nearly as bad as the virtual playing the Slingerland drums, roto toms, electric mindlessness which is passing as "poetry" today. bongos, steel drums and percussion. Luckily, he does But I should not dwell on the flaws, because the not fall into the trap of playing lengthy drum solos, good points of this album far outnumber the bad. as some of his colleagues have been known to do, With its fine instrumentation, Makin' It On The but instead his drums complement his music, instead Street should be a successful album for Corky Laing. of overpowering it. —Bob McCrone Queen, A Day at the Races (Elektra) "humorous."

I experienced this sensation at a stadium concert this past summer. It was then I realized the delight of living a rock n roll existence. John Miles had just completed his opening act for Elton John and the crowd's response was quite encouraging. A blond girl, sweating through her Elton t-shirt, vocally inclined her pleasure towards Miles' act with a barely audible, hoarse wimper of praise. everyone was She had succumbed to the bopper symptoms dressing to room triumphantly walked his to the fever. Miles exposed he viewed the Perhaps his face. incredulity look of on with a dizzy ephemeral; collective was not passion incidental. The audience response - it seemed to me to linger. Miles’ first album. Rebel (produced by Alan Parsons) was not the success London records had hoped it would be, although the disc made more than modest inroads into the rock world. If this LP had a problem, it might have been that it was too well produced by Parsons. As Rupert Holmes produces Miles' latest release. Stranger In The City, the venture is to meet with Miles as a musical and intellectual equal. Miles glows because he is John Miles rather than a schizophrenic parody of Alan Parsons. This observation is no subjective put down it is fact. Rebel was not a bad album; it's just that Stranger In The City is so much better. Miles' new album centers on a concept dealing with the piqued expectations the singer discovers as he muddles through his first U.S. tour. As he aspires to imagination come true, he perceives little more than tawdry reality. The case and point is the novelistic culture of New York City which is always surreal, especially to the foreigner. Loneliness becomes a masochism born out by necessity, purviewing life as no more than a chore. It is balanced with claustrophobia and the satire of dreams. The album's title track. Stranger In The City, conveys such a lonely feeling, soberly endorsed by a quick orchestral musical pace. The tone is strengthened by a drum and bass riff brought violently to the foreground. All this action gives credence to the insane drama of loneliness. The sensation continues with the disco song, "Slow Down," where Miles vocalizes to all and to no one: — "Time is on your side. Slow Down. " The tune's plot is cynical. As Miles pleads, "Slow Down" in rock 'n roll fashion, the disco beat quickens while the dance of reality pirouettes, then stagnates, observing its ballet shoes worn through to — the foot. The keyboards of Gary Moberly herald the theme of the Paul McCartney Billy Joelish ballad, "Time." Although time becomes one of Miles' concessions, he may still reign victorious in the city-strife life battle. The ammunition is pure common sense: — Time shows, love goes Only the fears as you go through the years Till the last sand of time blows away The last sand of time blows away. John Miles becomes personal about his objections to the city by relating to the distinct entity of individualism rather than adding to his fears by grappling with generalities. Through the "Manhattan Skyline" where "There's all you want in cheap delights," the focus is upon a "Glamour Boy" who is "living in a world of make believe." False actions are chastised. In these personal sketches. Miles' guitar shines with rock clarity, the vocals accompanying feeling and emulating the power. In the end, Miles' piano sums up the circus life with honky-tonk rhythm, blaming it all on that Broadway high-hire-wire night crawler, the agent. The song is "Music Man" and Miles projects his feelings thusly: Then there's Mr. Ten-percent Takes your.money just to pay his rent You put your feet across the door Step in gold dust on the floor The nice man shows you where to sign You lose your life on the dotted line. Miles confronts city living in a way which is not trite, but wholly communicable. Stranger In The City is a fine and complete short story. —Harold Goldberg INDIA STUDENTS ASSOCIATION ELECTIONS '77 5:00 pm Friday March 11th Room 330, Norton Union - 'Nominations will be received till Monday, March 7th.

Their ten-gallon hats and mile-wide grins reflected appreciation of the considerable applause. With a debut album just off the press, this southern rock band whose music is similar to Marshall Tucker, was a good choice for the first act. However, after listening to their 45-minute set, I wished Marshall Tucker came on at 8. The Winter Brothers Band is a five-piece boogie band, with the conventional two guitar setup, consisting of Donnie and Dennis Winters. They enter the all too cluttered category of "southern rock," joining the likes of Lynyrd Skynyrd, Elvin Bishop, Grinder Switch, Marshall Tucker, and the recently defunct Allman Brothers. Their music has no character or stype of its own, and all their songs, with the exception of their opening song, "Smokey Mountain Log Cabin Jones," sound like cheap imitations of their sister bands. The audience cheered them on for an encore, and then quietly waited for the Tuckers. The Winters Brothers Band did, indeed, the Tucker boys defined it. warm up the crowd to dixie rock — -Doug Alpern 'You left me at the worst time and now I can't face life so I'm committing suicide" bullshit for them. Their vociferous machismo had a very basic appeal: We're here to have us all a real good time. The next bunch of Southerners to assert this image and gain mass appeal for it was the Marshall Tucker Band. Operating out of than before. Tucker, playing against an elaborately painted backdrop, had cut their hair, and did not even yell once. But they still seem to be the best example of their genre.

"In My Own Way" ended up in a jam sounding very much like The Allman Brothers "You Don't Love Me." And, of course, the last two songs were "24 Hours At A Time" and "Ramblin," the latter of which is the best example of what an amazing voice Doug Gray really has.

Friday, 4 March 1977 Prodigal Sun �I (CAS 7oe> w iy-m Is: r\ X WAS rwiasf Qpu Against GSELTs plan n H0U)pIP kr To the Editor. 1 am writing to protest as strongly as I cap tj ueooe CbB me josnce PBPl f against the decision of the GSEU to strike from March 14th to March 19th. I have several reasons for doing so. One, the Ketter administration or, for that matter any administration of any of the SUNY campuses, lacks the legal powers to recognize the GSEU as a union and bargain with it in good faith. Since the GA’s and TA’s are paid by public funds they have to be given union status by the Public Employees Relations Board. It has nothing to do with the administration in this University. Two, the Administration on this campus neither has idle funds lying around nor has the means and ability to raise funds to meet the demands of the GSEU for higher stipends. Assistanship lines are tied to faculty lines which are determined by the state legislature. Three, the GSEU has not been, in my opinion, candid about the full implications of a unionized GSEU. Some of the detrimental effects would be: a) loss of privileges that go with TA’s and GA’s, eg., tuition waivers. (Doesn’t the union on each of the unionized campuses in Michigan and Wisconsin ask of their members to pay their own tuition?); b) that compensation or stipend received by GA’s and TA’s would be considered taxable income by the Inland Revenue Service and therefore, not eligible for tax exemption as under the present set up; c) that unionization would entail payment of union dues coming from the pockets of all GA’s and TA’s. Collectively, these three would cause net loss of income to TA’s and GA’s. Four, one of the demands of the GSEU stipulates lifting of 4-yr. restriction on the duration of any GA or TA. This is not only selfish but also an implicit demonstration of academic incompetence or laziness and “social robbery.” By holding on a GA or TA line for more than four years one deprives other new students from benefiting from an assistantship. If all those who get on the bus never get off, students of* the future (the present undergraduates) might as well give up hopes of ever attending graduate school. Any student who requires more than four years to complete a PhD program is either academically incompetent or just plain lazy, intending only to live off taxpayers’ money. I cannot for the life of me understand why a student who is so totally dissatisfied with the money he gets as a TA or GA would want to continue living under those same conditions he so despises when by completing his degree he would be earning anything from four to five times his present income. I suppose it is easier to live off taxpayers’ sweat rather than one’s own. Five, I have yet to see one research which shows that the higher the income of the teacher, the greater the benefits to the students. How is it that literally thousands of students on this campus are disappointed with their professors who earn anything from 22-35,000 dollars in salary? All of a sudden the GSEU will change all that by carrying a heavier wallet! Six, the GSEU in order to elicit support from the undergraduates states, “One of our non-negotiable demands to the administration will be academic amnesty for you.” Perhaps this can be best explained by an analogy. First you injure a patient and then tell the patient that you will seek guarantees from the doctor not to hurt the patient any more! Seven, it is quite presumptuous of the GSEU that it is the only group on the campus which is interested in bettering the lot of the GA’s and TA’s. The reputation and strength of a university depends on the quality of its faculty and students. One without the other like a pair of shoes with one shoe missing. One way of guaranteeing a qualitative supply of students is to make conditions,attractive enough for them to come to the University. What can the administration gain by worsening the conditions for GA’s and TA’s? The administration is just as concerned, if not more, about the improvement of conditions for its students. Has the GSEU taken pains to find out that the four presidents of the four university centres have every year sought more funds for the GA’s and TA’s? To conclude, I too am concerned about my colleagues but going on a strike is not the right means simply because it will achieve nothing but only do harm to the undergraduates whose learning environment the GSEU wants to improve. Second, it is a futile attempt to milk a bull (the administration on this campus) when the cow is in Albany (the state PIP WU SETT WROXS 10 HUP? cines.

As the strike referendum called by the Graduate Student Employees Union approaches, questions are being raised by foreign graduate students who are also state funded TAs and GAs. I am a foreign student currently employed as a teaching assistant. I thought 1 should do some research with respect to my situation. One of the people I contacted was Joe Balter, a legal researcher who has been looking into questions regarding foreign student employees. I feel the information he gave me is pertinent to the many other foreign student employees here at U.B. In the case of a strike, the federal regulations (8CFR214.2(f)(6)) say that “permission [to work] is automatically suspended while a strike or other labor dispute involving a work stoppage or layoff of employees is in progress in the occupation and at the place where the student is employed.” That means two things to me: first, in the event of a strike by TAs and GAs, I am not supposed to work, the law forbids it; and second, if I wish, I can work for the GSEU. The GSEU has already announced its intention to include foreign students in its non-negotiable amnesty demand. And while the University couldn’t withdraw its financial support from a foreign TA when the amnesty clause is won, it could attempt to get the immigration and naturalization service to take action against a foreign student for activities done during the strike. I will be careful and work for the Union in non-public ways. Since I will not be able to perform my usual tasks for the University, I believe I ought to help the GSEU win for all graduate students the contract items which will improve our lot: a raise in pay, guaranteed tuition waivers (the money for this year’s tuition waivers came out of funds originally designated for foreign students), affirmative action, lowered class and lab sizes, job security, etc. I work here and 1 want to help improve the conditions of those with whom I work, including the hundreds of foreign students now working throughout the University. If you wish particular information about what the law requires of foreign students during a labor dispute or about immigration and foreign students in general, contact Joe Balter at 636-2161. Maureen Wall-Cartmell Friday, 4 March 1977 The Spectrum Page twenty-one . . �Destroying Palestinian identity To the Editor: UUAB FINE ARTS FILM COMMITTEE presents In response to the letter of Howard Hausman entitled “The PLO Alternative” which was published in The Spectrum on Wednesday,‘February 16, 1977. Your letter gave me the feeling that you need to know more about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict before you can issue a declaration similar to that of Balfore. You like to see yourself acting as a president or great emperor giving orders “The Palestinians have their country in Jordan” without any consideration for the humanistic dimensions of the Palestinian problem. There is no wonder why you admire the great colonial Britain. You follow its imperialist, racist and unjust line. I would like to advise you to read more about the history of Palestine and the history of Jordan, before you destroy the Palestinian identity. I would like to convey to you that you are racist if you believe that “Israel shall remain an independent Jewish state.” What would you do to the one million Palestinians who already live in Palestine? Would you throw them out just because you would like to see “an independent Jewish State?” How ridiculous to see you glorifying democracy in Israel! You might have a different concept for democracy similar to those colonial powers which in the name of democracy, destroy nations and enslave peoples. To correct your ignorance about democracy in Israel, I present to you and to the readers the following facts: 1. The American Heritage Dictionary of the English language defines the word democracy as follows: (a) “government by the people, exercised either directly or through elected representatives; (b) a democratic state pertains or promotes the interests of the people and believes in social equality.” To apply the meanings of democracy to what is there in Israel, the reader will find a distorted version of democracy. The following reasons illustrate the . families of the demonstrators confirm the absence of democracy. Finally, do you consider the destruction of the Palestinian National home as a sign of democracy? Do you take the dispersion of the Palestinians and the denial of their rights to live in their homeland and establish an independent Palestinian state as manifestations of democracy? I really wonder why the Zionist people have more right to establish a Zionist state in Palestine and deprive the indiginous inhabitants of Palestine from the same right? Bader Dweik Invitation To the Editor In the year 571 A.D., on the twenty sixth of February, the sacred water of Lake Sawa, suddenly evaporated. The sacred fires of the Persians, having given light for more than a thousand years, were extinguished. An earthquake shook the land, destroying the great palace of Cosroes, the greatest emperor of his time. Cosroes, the greatest emperor trembled in his palace where four of its towers were destroyed. These were the signs of the birth of the prophet Mohammed, God’s messenger. Humanity has received its message. Mohammed was not sent for a special nation, but for all of humanity. On the occasion of the comemoration of Mohammed’s birth, an invitation is extended to those, who have been looking for the truth with one eye closed, to become less partial and to listen to the sound of the two bells.

The former live in the slums of Tel-Aviv and the ghettos of Jerusalem. They are border guards and working hands in municipality cleaning divisions. The latter live in villas in the French Hill (Jerusalem) or Mount Carmel in Haifa. They have all the senior positions in the state of Israel.

(3) The Palestinian intellectuals have been exposed to deportation, arrest, imprisonment and torture simply because they say “no” to occupation.

Although an increase in State tax dollars is provided, the total support available to the University is essentially the same as the current very tight year, with no provision for inflation. The decrease in support of the University cannot continue if its quality and institutions are to remain intact. The Executive Budget of 1977-78, coupled with this year’s austerity budget, means that the State University of New York is diminished in the students it can serve, in the services it can provide to the public, and in the new knowledge it can create. The University can no longer afford to admit the students who seek to enroll.

Flexibility We are pleased to note that the Executive Budget offers the University “as much flexibility as possible to determine its priorities within the funds available and in a We therefore appreciately the fairness and wisdom in the recent decision to return a significant portion of funds to the campuses which result from the University’s successful energy conservation programs. This is an illustration of creating an incentive for continued efficiency, and of the University’s capacity to serve itself and the State’s fiscal requirements at the same time. And we could do more, except for the vacancy freeze. This freeze is increasingly damaging. acknowledge the early stages of the freeze, the essentially random effect of losses was manageable; but as the freeze continues, and vacancies accumulate, our ability to direct our own activities erodes. To continue to meet In budgetary goals by retaining vacant positions, rather than by prevents planning, us from providing the educational opportunities our funds allow. The University would be much better able to serve the public if the freeze was lifted while our expenditures continue to be controlled. We are not seeking additional funds; we are requesting relief from a regulation * Community Colleges The Executive Budget proposes changes significant in the financing of Community Colleges for 1977-78. We are pleased that this Budget proposes to retain the open-door admissions policy to Community Colleges, does not require program reduction, and does not require additional college support from local tax sources in spite of a State aid reduction for 1977-78. The Executive Budget proposes that this reduction in State aid be made up from funds available in the reserves for excess student revenues and from fund balances where sufficient funds are held in these accounts. colleges For some the application of reserves may be accompanied by reductions in local support because some sponsors had made plans to utilize some of the surplus in lieu of sponsor support. We strongly yrge this not be the case, and that the reduction in State aid, if one-time necessary, be a occurrence in order to protect the open enrollment concept and avoid program retrenchment. We must also note that in some cases the use of the accrued reserves in lieu of a portion of State aid is viewed as a negative incentive by those who have their carefully limited expenditures. The fact is that where no reserves have accrued there will be no loss in State aid funding. We are pleased that the Executive Budget has been amended tj reduce the loss of State aid and to make allowance for the college use of reserves which had been previously scheduled for use in the 1976-77 operating budgets. The Executive Budget further recommends that a full-scale review of the Community College Tuition Assistance Program Although TAP is not part of the University’s budget, we must conclude that the current proposals for change will increase out-of-pocket expenditures for the neediest students. This would be a socially regressive action which we unanimously oppose. Of the recommended changes in the Program, the proposal to reduce TAP payments by $100 for each of the first two years for public college students is doubly discriminatory; it not only discriminates against the public college students but also and much more importantly against the most economically disadvantaged among them. If approved, the net effect will be an increased expense of $100 for all with next taxable incomes below - — $10,000. The University Trustees are deeply committed to providing a foundation of excellence for the future. It is wholly inadequate to devote ourselves to periodic budget-cutting without a dear sense that New York State, and indeed the world, depends upon high quality education as well as advanced scholarship and science. We understand the current financial condition of the State, and we pledge ourselves to work with the Governor and the to bring stability to Legislature New York State. However, we firmly believe that maintaining a strong and vital State University is an indispensable part of the solution. A distinguished Stata University is ope way the State ensures continuingly adequate tax revenues. It is the best way to give young people the opportunity to seek an education which moves them from the welfare rolls to tax rolls.

The basketball Bulls eked out a 78-76 win over crosstown rival Buffalo State Tuesday night, before 1400 Screaming fans at Clark Hall. It was only Buffalo’s fifth win of the year, against 21 losses, but when it was over, all of the Bulls were wearing big smiles. “It feels really good,” said Buffalo coach Leo Richardson. As is his custom, Richardson always starts the team’s seniors in the last ’ game of the year. Therefore, Buffalo’s starting lineup had three forwards seniors Mike Jones, Eric Spence and one and Sam Robinson senior George Cooper. guard Vernell (Another senior, Washington was injured.) The Bulls ran into some problems defensively, because Robinson was playing the other guard spot in Buffalo’s 1*2-2 zone defense. “He wasn’t used to that spot,” Richardson said. “He wasn’t rotating properly.” State took advantage of that and jumped out to an 8-0 lead. Richardson then took out Robinson and put in guard Ed Johnson. Buffalo came back, and when Cooper made a steal and turned it into a three-point play, Buffalo had countered the — — — Bengals’ momentum. Cooper bad been psyched for his final game and felt he was more better and team-oriented as a result. “I wante'd to throw it down (i.e. stuff the ball) but 1 had lay it up and try to get three,” Cooper said. Buffalo was able to tie the playing ) game several times in the first half, but the Bengals hot outside shooting of Buffalo State’s Oleh Czmola and Bucky Strong kept the Bengals just out in front. State led at halftime 34-33. The Bulls came out flying in the second half, and when Cooper, leading a fast break, made a beautiful spinning move, drove down the lane, and hit on a short jumper, with 18:20 left in the half, Buffalo had its first lead of the night. The Bulls did not let up, and with Robinson,, Bulls’ center Sam Pellom, Johnson and Spence complimenting Cooper’s efforts, Buffalo outscored State 21-5. “Everybody pulled together,” Cooper said. “It was one team effort.” Richardson echoed the same feeling about the team’s scoring spree. “We looked like a team we rebounded, passed the ball, ran,” said the Bulls coach. Buffalo’s largest lead of the night was a fifteen point spread, but then Strong, after having missed a few twenty footers, hit a long one to ignite a Bengals rally. State scored eight points in a row, chipping Buffalo’s lead down to seven. “When we were up by fifteen, we kind of let up a little,” said Johnson. Cooper added that he felt a little tired, but when the Bengals started coming back, he found a second wind. Richardson also noticed that the team relaxed a little, and called a timeout to start them going again. “I asked Eric and Mike, ‘Are you tired? You sure look like it’,” Richardson said. Even with that admonition, the Bulls were not able to stop the Bengals’ comeback. Strong was — Buffalo State’s catalyst, as he hit six outside shots, in the last six mintues. “We had a hand in his face,, but he was just hot,” Cooper said. “When someone’.; that hot, there’s nothing you could do.” “1 was worried about him,” Richardson said. “He was really hurting us towards the end. Everything he shot went in.” Strong shot 12-of-22 finishing with a game high of 24 points. Pressure tactics In addition to Strong, there was the Bengals full-court press to contend with. “I told them before the game, if anything is going to hurt us, it’ll be the press,” Richardson said. Buffalo State got several key steals down the stretch. “We were trying to get it it get (in bounds] and downcourt,” said Johnson of the Bulls strategy to break the press. But Richardson felt that Buffalo’s guards were not in position, and Buffalo’s front line wasn’t coming to meet the ball properly. But as the clock ticked down towards the one minute mark, Buffalo found a way to break the press. Cooper threw a touchdown pass to Robinson, who raced ahead of everyone for a layup, giving Buffalo a six point lead. State center Greg Miller scored on a drive, to move them within four. But then Lloyd Devaux, who was inbounding the ball against the Bengals press, hit Pellom with a length-of-the-court pass, and Pellom hit two freethrows (after being fouled while attempting a layup). Hectic finish Strong came back in a hurry apd scored from 27 feet out. —John Buffalo State’s press stole the ball, but just seconds later, Johnson stole the ball from them, and was fouled. He missed the frcethrow, but Robinson was not boxed out, and easily tipped the rebound in. Buffalo led by six, with 25 seconds to go. Gary Babcock hit a short jumper with ten seconds left, and the Bengals press stole the ball one last time. Jerome Glover hit another jumper, but there was only two seconds left, and Buffalo never even inbounded the ball. The hectic final few minutes almost cost the Bulls the game. “We should have had a little more poise,’’ Richardson remarked. “State had to run because they were behind. We should have known better and slowed it down.” But Buffalo still prevailed, and their win gave them second place in the Big Four (and had it not been for a few missed freethrows against Niagara, Buffalo could have had first place). The season is over (unless they make the playoffs, as the joke goes), and for the first time in a long time, Buffalo’s seniors ended their career on a winning note. ) SUNDAY HITE!!!

Page twenty-five �Sportspaige 1 never saw a standing ovation for by Paige Miller Sports Editor So the basketball season is over. I thought I would be a bit melancholy when it was over, but when the buzzer sounded Tuesday night and Buffalo had beaten Buffalo State, I wasn’t anywhere near melancholy. I was on cloud nine. I had covered the basketball I team here for four years moved up to the varsity after a strong freshman season covering the junior varsity, and while I can’t actually say that I loved every minute of it, I did enjoy the vast majority of them. - a basketball player there. Several players got nice hands Tuesday night, but it’s not the same. I was privileged to see all five of the team’s wins this year. I say privileged because they were my team 1 mean that like a fan who believes in a team no matter how badly they’re doing. I sometimes wish I hadn’t been the official scorer or statistician at most of those games because many times I just wanted to sit back and shout — my lungs out. And I also felt like part of the team at times. (I’m so vain; but then, I used to think that song was about me.) The team trusted my statistics, and made jokes about me just like I was one of horrible season this I had to Jook them. forward to was beating Buffalo Buffalo State.

Fortunately for me, the Rochester The Bulls were especially hurt by the Kats’ fast break, which was player missed the shot. I do have one regret, however, fed by steals and Buffalo turnovers. The leading practitioner for Erie was guard Jane Kish, who made five layups following fast breaks. Kish was the high scorer for the Kats with twenty points. The Bulls jumped to an early lead, but the Kats came right back and took the lead on two fast breaks by Kish. That pattern continued throughout the first half as the two teams constantly gained and then lost the lead. After Erie battled to a seven point lead, sophomore Regina Frazier and freshman Marilyn Brown got hot and cut the lead to one. The Bulls then went ahead on senior Marilyn Dellwardt’s jump shot. After a year, about all Women s basketball ‘just squeeze it out — ~ This year, center Sam Pellom missed about five stuff shots in a row at one point, and after the loss to LeMoyne, 1 suggested that he stop trying to stuff the ball. me and Pellom looked at suggested 1 might not be alive tomorrow. I certainly didn’t believe it I first heard that Pellom was leading the nation in rebounding last year. when Take that, Canisius One of the happiest moments came when Buffalo beat Canisius this year. They trailed by ten with three minutes left, but came back and Pellom tipped a shot in with five seconds left to win the game for Buffalo. Although I was the official scorer, I was screaming at the top of my lungs then. Syracuse, two years Battle continues Buffalo managed to build up a three point edge before the Kats again took it over on center Vicki Sendelbeck’s long jumpers. Brown and vllwardt scored in the clsoing minute to give the Bulls a one point edgf at the half. Buffalo took a more commanding lead early in the second half, led by O’Malley and freshman Anna Eng. Although the Bulls continued to suffer from the Kats fast break, they never relinquished the lead. The Bulls scoring attack in the second half was very well balanced the second with O’Malley, Brown and forward Paula Hills all making in a big contribution. At about the half way point in the half, the win looked like it was in danger when Erie drew to within one of Buffalo. The Bulls were leading by six when Kish hit a jumpshot, and forward Lita Murawski made a layup. Hills came back with a jumper for the Bulls, but then Murawski hit two more jump shots, including one following a steal by Kish, and the Bulls led by only one. ! Buffalo improves Buffalo tightened their defense while their offense got a little flashier. First, freshman Gabi Fray hit a turnaround jumpshot to increase the lead to three. O’Malley stole the ball but the Kats got it back and took it in for a layup all alone. Following another unsuccessful Erie drive,. Hills caught a pass from Brown, and made a quick jump shot near the free throw line. Missy Heim and Murawski made an attempt to get the lead back for Erie, but their efforts were only in vain. Dellwardt poured in a free throw following a technical on Heim to ice the win. Cousins continued her experiments with the starting lineups by starting reserves Dellwardt and Eng. “I’m trying to let them play as a group,” explained Cousins. “Right now, we have two or three players that work well together. I’m trying to get five that work well together.” Cousins also thought that the team was a bit tired after the Big Four Tournament, and that perhaps that was the reason for their poor play. She said that the team didn’t play well, but that it “was good enough.” Page twenty-six The Spectrum . . Friday, 4 March 1977 Sponsored by israel Information Center & ago. Buffalo had a thirteen point lead against the NCAA quarterfinalists. I didn’t believe it, and I wonder if Richardson did either. Once, I made the mistake of calling Richardson by his first name. The immediate reply was “Don’t call me Leo!” The whole team thought it was funny. Kenny Pope, now assistant doesn’t coach, probably remember this one, but his senior year (my freshman year) I went with the team to Rochester. Richardson requires that everyone wear a tie on road trips, but I didn’t know how to tie mine. So 1 asked Kenny. And he tied it for me. But that’s enough. I could go on forever if I wanted to. Right now, I am pretty melancholy. Oh well, that’s life. American Zionist Youth Foundation �CLASSIFIED AD INFORMATION after 6 p.m. AUU ADS MUST be paid in advance.

Gerber threatened to end the debate at one point, when Gilbert Lawrence invited Steve Ferst up to the rostrum to join the proceedings. Ferst is a candidate for Director of Student Affairs, and Gerber maintained his participation in the debate would constitute an unfair advantage over his opponents. While the audience urged the fiery Ferst on, Gerber shouted, “I can’t allow this.” Despite encouragement from onlookers, Ferst backed down. can’t match the Administration gun-for-gun.” If the Coop were forced to close, Delia said he would favor moving it off campus. At this point Stegman leaped to the mike and chided, “Way to back down.” Lawrence claimed students should fight to keep the Record Coop on campus, an$l establish a food coop as well. Each candidate gave an opening statement, then responded to questions from the moderator and the audience. Robinson said student apathy is the source of virtually all problems on this campus, and his replies to questions were tempered by this attitude. “If you choose to let the administration direct traffic,” he stated, “then don’t complain about the jam.” Robinson claimed that SUNY budget cuts were a direct result of student complacency. Another disturbance arose when self-styled campus prophet Michael Levinson (Lev) took the floor and proposed his system of restructuring SA into a “course for credit,” open to all students and taught by himself. The SA presidential stipend of $2000 would be eliminated under the plan, as would elections. David Brownstein defended the stipend, claiming it allows the president to devote more time to the office by eliminatihg the need to work part time. Dennis Delia said he would prefer academic credit to a stipend, but thought the idea of a course taught by “Lev” was “absurd.” Quality of academics Lawrence subsequently took the mike and announced^-“It’s about time we got a government that got up and said what it believes in.” Turner Robinson said he did not believe the SA president, “deserved a dime,” and that a course in governing skills would be advisable. Brownstein explained that his Insight party does things differently. He disagreed with Delia on working with the Administration. “Speaking from experience,” he said, “students can challenge the Administration by taking an active stand on the issues.” The subject charged When a questioner from the audience asked about alcoholism on the Amherst campus, Lawrence said he favored restricting the Ellicott pub to beer only. Brownstein did not favor altering the pub, but claimed there should be more activities on the Amherst Campus. Candidate James Stegman exclaimed, “If you think you have a representative government, you’re dreaming.” In response to a question concerning the Cavages law suit against the Record Coop, the five candidates offered differing views. Brownstein stated that if the suit were lost, he would open the Coop anyway and force the Administration to arrest students working there. Delia disagreed saying, “SA —Vazquez Delia extolled the virtues of Albany lobbying, and working with the Administration. He claimed the planned Amherst gym is the most important issue among students, and vowed he would not hesitate to trek to Albany and apply direct pressure on legislators. He felt that Albany opposes the four-course as a means of cutting the SUNY at Buffalo budget. Delia proposed using the media to fight budget cuts and claimed faculty should not be represented in student groups. Steve Ferst Walter Lattka Gilbert Lawrence James He felt the quality of academics is the most important issue of the campaign, and proposed a plan of “bringing SA back to the students.” He repeatedly stressed the need for SA to take stands on issues Lawrence did not claim to be extensively qualified but said, “I can’t to any worse. If nothing else, I’ll scream loud.” He termed the proposed mass-transit system from downtown to the Amherst campus “vital.” The four-course load has, in his opinion, “never worked well,” and he proposed either a five-course load or an increase in contact hours per course. Lawrence urged students to support the possible Graduate Students Employees Union (GSEU) strike, claiming, “We can bring Ketter to his knees.” Dennis Delia Turner Robinson Cavages vs. the University One of two Record Coop suits dropped A decision dismissing one of the two suits instituted by Cavages Inc. against the Record Coop at this University was upheld by the Appellate Division of the New York State Supreme Court in Rochester. The Appellate Division also ordered the second suit to trial. Stegman Cavages, which operates a record store in the University Plaza, filed the two suits last year naming University President Robert Ketter as the defendant. One was a taxpayers’ suit, the other was a show cause action. Both were attempts on the part of Cavage to stop the operation of the Record Coop on campus. Last April, a State Supreme Court Justice dismissed the show cause action and ordered the taxpayers’ suit to proceed. Two months before. State Supreme Court Justice Norman Stiller had ordered the taxpayers’ suit to trial. The Appelate Division upheld Roncotta’s ruling because Cavages lacks the standing to bring a show cause action. Also upheld was Roncitta’s ruling that the Student Association should be allowed to intervene in the suit on the side of the respondent, Ketter. �Support grows for Attica inmate Hill by Cliff Dickson Staff Writer Spectrum the assault to retake the Attica plan tp cellblock, properly preserve evidence and properly and administer the budget Governor Hugh Carey commuted his sentence, making him immediately eligible for parole. All other inmates convicted of uprising related' crimes were pardoned by the Governor. A pardon entails the annulment of . Prosecutions one-sided explained Carey that the pardons and the commutation of Dacajeweiah’s sentence were not an indication of their innocence. His action was prompted by the conclusion that “the conduct of this investigation and prosecution has been such that we now confront the real possibility that the law itself may well fall into disrespect.” Carey described “the one sided nature of prosecutions,” citing the failure to properly plan investigation. On January 9, 1977, the New York State Board of Parole refused Dacajeweiah’s petition for parole. This action was unprecedented in cases where the Governor has already granted commutation of sentence. John Steinthrop, a paralegal who has worked with several organizations in attempts to free Dacajeweiah, sees him as a feels Steinthrop scapegoat. Dacajeweiah was singled out because he was the only inmate charged with the murder of a corrections officer. William Quinn was the only guard who died of injuries incurred prior to the assault by the State Police. Steinthrop said, “The state really wanted this one. There was tremendous coercive pressure brought on inmates to testify against Dacajeweiah. It was not a simple case. It was a very political decision to convict him.” Pressure Carey into pardon Janet Silver, a student here has working with been actively Family & Friends of John Hill to obtain his release from prison.

CAC has been a part of this University for the past 12 years. The organization began as the Community Aid Corps, a name that implied it functioned more as a source of help to existing institutions rather than as an instrument of social reform. However, Black explained, “with the advent of student activism in the late ’60’s, the name was changed to Community Action Corps which reflects an attitude of instituting change.” Today, CAC is responsible for implementing essential studerft this University services in including the Family Planning Center, Sunshine House, and the Be-A-Friend program Through CAC,‘ students are able to provide the community necessary with services while broadening their own horizons ' .

Dacajeweiah is the only person convicted of a crime stemming from the Attica State Penitentiary rebellion of September 1971, still serving time for that conviction. In 1975 he was found guilty of the murder of prison guard William Quinn and sentenced to twenty years to life. On December 30th, 1976 New York State sentence.

The seven major areas the workshops will cover are Social Action, Drug and Youth, Day Legal and Care, Education, Welfare Programs, Health Care, and Senior Citizens. The workshops will try to open communication between volunteers in the various areas in addition to trying to create a unified picture of CAC for those involved. For instance, the Social Action workshop will incorporate the sub-groups of Environmental Action, Western New York Peace Center, United Farmworkers Support Committee, Volunteers in Service to Erie County, and World Food Committee. The workshop will enable students in each one of these project areas to interact with each other and to complete a acquire more perspective of their role in Social Action as well as in CAC as an organizational whole. Sunday’s workshops will be led the coordinators and by organizers of each area. They will discuss CAC’s history, its potential and future, and the role of volunteers in the organization and the community. The afternoon will wind up in an gathering with informal refreshments being served. There are additional plans for aides and inviting resource community project heads to do a presentation in the form of workshops toward the end of the semester. All of CAC’s programs are rewarding and enable participants to feel a sense of achievement. Perhaps,one of the most practical and beneficial programs CAC sponsors is the one in which Senior Citizens are trained to with learning tutor children disabilities. Their interest, patience, and skills Can now be contributed to the growth of children who are in dire need of individual attention. A similar implemented program was statewide in Minnesota. CAC has enonpous potential for achieving constructive social reform. “The organization is a major link between the community and the student campus and hopes to maintain its respect and credibility. �"Buffalo Evening News’ credit and marketing networks available to Blue Chip Stamps.

According to Patty De Vinney and Lorraine Lerman, two Greenfield workers, “high quality” food is consistently served, achieved by maintaining “high standards” in the kitchen. Unlike a lot of restaurants with kitchens that are obscured from the customers’ view, Greenfield boasts an “open kitchen,” where people can observe the preparation of meals. “We don't hide anything,” says Lorraine. Anyone wishing to borrow a recipe from the Greenfield menu may do so. Everyone is encouraged to partake in “good eating,” whether at home or in “good foods restaurants.” Equal responsibility One of the striking differences between Greenfield and other more conventional restaurants is the cooperative setup. There is no Photos by Susan Killion manager, no boss, and no one-person positions like cook and dishwasher. A person may be cooking day and washing next. “We share as much as possible,” explained Lorraine. “There is equal responsibility in the kitchen.” dishes With one the the total absence of a hierarchy, the workers feel they really “making this are restaurant.” Work is more “meaningful” and “a sense of pride in your work” is developed as a result of the cooperative form, according to Patty. “There’s creativity you can express through your work,” said Lorraine, who believes that every become “the collective effort itself is creative.” As part of their dedication to the restaurant, many people work unpaid hours and attend weekly meetings to discuss such things as menus and business matters. For three weeks in December, (normally a slow month for them) Greenfield was shut down for renovations. Upon reopening they were blasted by the storm. For weeks the city had not plowed the streets, making parking near the restaurant impossible. “We were losing money,” explained Pat. Much money was invested in the three weeks of painting and repairing, and it was hoped that aspect of work meaningful can because necessary funtls could be accumulated during the month of January. However, the restaurant was forced to close down several times during the January blizzards. Nutrition More financial strain has been caused by the Florida freeze, which has drastically increased the of produce. The price increase has necessitated some minor adjustments in the Greenfield menu. Using “seasonal vegetables” has been one way to contend with the exhorbitant price prices.

With a little practice, ingenuity and just plain nerve, a skilled dilettante, can circumvent course requirements with the sureness of a jackal descending on carrion. Making things easier, now there’s a manual to consult, a how-to book called Surviving the The Undergraduate Jungle Student’s Guide to Good Grades, Columbia written two by graduates, Kathy University Krafts and Brenda Hauther. The authors say had they known of the academic ruses five years ago they “might have gotten into law school rather than writing this book.” — -Several exam hints are outlined. The authors claim essays exams “beg for bullshit” and can be successfully taken by “writing, writing, and more writing, until your hand cramps and shakes, and then write some more.” The wise student is mindful of the academic prejudices that govern a professor’s grading system. “If your professor disagrees with a critic, you can write a long diatribe against the poor man. If he idolizes the critic, then your essay can dwell on the man’s and astounding perception astuteness. (This is called indirect praise use it.)” A sharp student never misses a chance to tactfully brownnose a professor who might come in handy at recommendation time, according to the authors. A host of professors should be kept in tow during one’s tenure as an undergraduate. You never know when you might need one. The student who wants really good grades must not let pride get in the way. Begging for a higher grade is totally cool, say the authors, it’s just another way of - screwing the system. The book contains advice for those times when you have to cop a plea with a professor or dean to get an extension or deferred exam. Excuses that never work are old chestnuts like a death in the family or personal illness. The authors suggest mental anguish, general fatigue, job overload, anything that is convincing but also vague. No funny business If you’re bargaining for a higher grade, sleeping with the professor is out. “Honesty is the byword in sexual relationships today and if you do sleep with the professor he or she is likely to grade you more harshly than other students. Instead of that A and a grateful tweak on all four cheeks, you are going to get the D you deserve,” explain Krafts and Hauther The authors have a warped and cynical view of today’s college, seeing it as a necessary stepping stone on the way to that law practice or fat doctor’s salary. College is not an end in itself, they insist, but instead a weeding out process for the proverbial real world, and you have to be ruthless to survive. This is a book for that pernicious college character who is swarming out of control; the cutthroat. Anyone less jaded and ambitious than the throat will find the guide a real snooze t, But the authors need not worry, because the way colleges look today, the book will doubtless be a best seller. - OJidve/isity Pen or shovel? And they do reveal a slew of tricks that are guaranteed to produce the highest grades with a minimum of work. possible Cliffs and Monarch’s Notes are suggested instead of actually reading an entire novel, and Classics Illustrated Comics are not to be scoffed at. Invented bibliographies, bought papers, and even plagiarism are part of the game plan, in fact, anything that saves your skin goes. Because of the dangers of being caught, cheating is discouraged, but numerous illicit methods are still detailed, so that the reader can at least cheat with sophistication.

These free enterprise chairs, many of which have been established with handsome endowments from businesspeople and corporations, range from Georgia State University’s highly successful teacher-training program to a wide-ranging package deal at San Antonio’s St. Mary’s University where local businesses play an active role. Whatever the program, a professor of free enterprise is seen as the first line of defense against what many critics feel to be massive ignorance among young Americans concerning the basic ideas of capitalism. College is one of the chief culprits working against a better understanding of the American economic way, these critics believe. “Although its (the assault on —continued on page 14 — THERE WILL BE AN ACADEMIC AFFAIRS Task Force meeting Thursday, March 3 at 4 pm 332 Norton.

For many professionals, the problem is knowing when and how to talk about death with a patient. One of the reasons for this may be that people in our culture have not learned to talk about personal death with any degree of comfort, said one nurse interviewed by The Spectrum, who did not wish to be identified. Human death has been regarded as a phenomenon to be controlled, denied or hidden. Could it be that the dying have been from the segregated remainder of society and the living have had little opportunity to become psychologically prepared for death, either their own or someone close to them? Lack of adequate socialization discussing death, forr in combination with the high value attached in this society to keeping emotions under tight control, serves to prevent the medical staff and patient from moving easily to an open conversation about the patient’s death. Threatening In addition to our cultural conditioning, “Open talk about Extra curricular dying carries a personal threat; herself. “Most of a nurses time, especially for anyone whose span effort and energy is directed of time has been shortened by an toward preserving, or helping a illness that is life threatening in person to hang on to life as Jeanne opposed to assisting him in the nature,” said nurse Benoliel in an article in Nursing successful completion of the act Forum. of dying,” said Jane A.

Also, many nurses lack the educational Personal failure experiences that may have helped “When a patient who has a them to develop meaningful ways serious illness is in a hospital like of coping with this situation. The younger generation of this, and they are being faced with that issue of death, they, rely nurses are more sensitive to the psychological care of patients, due heavily on the physician and what he has to say about everything,” to the recent emphasis to correct said Dr. Lewis Forti, Director of this problem in nursing schools.

Wednesday, 2 March 1977 . The Spectrum . Page seven �Guest Opinion EditPrial bv Wendy Krasnoff Dear Bartleby: Voting is something students don't do. Each year the powers-that-be in student government roll the heavy, grey voting machines to the most prominent thoroughfares in the University. And each year the great majority of students pass them by. Three thousand is considered a heavy turnout. A victory margin of a thousand is acclaimed as a landslide. We think the great non-voting majority of students is trying to tell us something. We think their abstention communicates a deep, pervasive disaffection with the students who administrate the activity fee from Norton Hall. They feel this way because they see only abject failure in student government (which is no more true than to say SA has been an unqualified success), or a purpose or function too obscure to be of even passing interest. And so no one votes. And hardly anyone complains. And the student leaders stumble forward in search of a purpose, without a mandate from the constituency they purport to represent, already at an insurmountable disadvantage in facing the corporate-sure University administration. Government by default answers to nobody, does nothing. But maybe you still prefer not to It's quite possible this year you feel there is more significance in withholding your vote than in casting it, and that you wish once again to communicate that deep, pervasive disaffection with the Norton status quo. But assuming that there are those among the student powers-that-be who already know something's not quite right in this world, who know the distance between themselves and the average student, and wish dearly that this Hugh Carey On December 30, Governor sentence life of the commutation announced the that This meant of John Hill (aka Dacajewiah). was It parole. immediate eligible for he was formality, hearing was a widely assumed that the has since parole is rarely denied to someone who people other The received a commuted sentence. pardoned convicted of Attica related crimes were to by the governor. Governor Carey was forced do this by the overwhelming evidence that the corruption, Attica prosecution was riddled with of evidence. destruction witnesses, and bribing of It was also obvious that while 62 inmates were charged in 42 indictments with 1289 separate offenses, not one state trooper was charged in the homicide of 43 people killed in the retaking of the prison. The crimes of the state officials were never seriously investigated. The parole board met on Thursday, January 13, 1977. It was headed by Ed Hammock, who served on the Attica prosecution from 1971-1973. After the hearing, the parole board announced that no decision had been arrived at. Tuesday, January The hearing was delayed until 18, because the board stated that they wanted to obtain more information. On this day, John Hill was denied parole. John Steinthrop of Attica Now, who attended the hearing said, “The parole board bowed to the pressure of a vicious campaign waged by the state prison employees association and conservative New York State legislatures, led by Dale Volker.” Volker organized thirty nine state legislators to urge that parole be denied to John Hill. Hill can ask for a review of the parole board hearing, but it is doubtful he will get even that. It was also ruled that he cannot apply for parole until 1979. The parole board gave Dacajeweiah four parole. The “it would was that diminish reason the first heinousness of a serious crime.” If the parole board was so concerned about serious crimes, they , would consider the racism and brutality in the prison which caused the legitimate rebellion. The second reason given was that “it would evoke a negative community response, and encourage disrespect for the law.” Where was the Governor’s respect for the law when he ordered the troopers to storm the prison? The third reason given was that “it would preclude further rehabilitative treatment.” The final reason given by the parole board was that “it would condone his pattern of anti-social behavior.” Despite the board’s claim of “anti-social behavior,” while at Greenhaven Prison, Hill served as a co-chairman of a conference called by the Inmates United Committee. The topics discussed by the inmates, state legislators, and community people included a proposed revision in New York State Corrections Law, and reduced sentence time for inmates earning high school or college credit. John Hill was one of the founders of the steering committee which has representatives of Ml the inmates’ organizations seated on it. John Hill’s case offered an opportunity to blame an inmate scapegoat for the death of a guard, and divert attention from the deaths caused by state gunfire. For all the bitterness and the money spent on investigations and prosecutions, John Hill is the only person still in prison as a result of the massacres at Attica!!!

Both are far from perfect, but given a few years, they might be. Besides, if SCATE were allowed to be developed it will serve a two-fold purpose: one, students would have a good indicator in seeing how good a teacher is (and how good the course is) and two, the criticisms (or compliments) will help a professor be a more effective teacher. The Record Co-op (you remember it?) now is not only in danger of being shut down by Ketter and Cavages but by the students also.

I felt that it would be unethical for us to spend mandatory fee money to tell you how to vote on the fee question. However, this doesn’t mean we don’t have an opinion on the question. As President of SA, I urge all students to VOTE YES on'the upcoming referendum. Every year the mandatory fee is criticized and everyone bitches about it, but to vote it down would be an unwise decision. I will not say that every dollar is spent wisely and efficiently, but that a strong effort is made. To vote it down, because you don’t like how $1,000 is spent or disagree with the nature of some of the organizations is ridiculous. The Student Carnival, Panic Theatre, Weekend Coffeehouses and Association budget is over $900,000, so instead of Life Workshops, if the fee is voted down. complaining about small parts of it, just look at the SASU: If anything can justify its expenditures, it’s SASU, the Student Association of the State whole picture: Athletics: The entire athletic program is funded by University. Last year they got both the TAP and mandatory fees. If there was no mandatory fee, we BEOG cuts restored and kept tuition and dorm rent down this year (even though the debt service is would have no intercollegiate program or club increasing). In the last two years, they’ve saved most sports. But more importantly, there would be no intramural or recreational program. That’s right no students at least $200.00. And how fnuch is it worth to you-to have a student on the Board of Trustees? going to the Bubble on Saturday afternoon or working out at Clark Hall or playing tennis outside. Or to have the voting laws changed? Or to have the Oh, there is an alternative. You see, the State would Jewish holidays off? Can you give it a price tag? never tolerate a university with no facilities. So, will Clubs: Without the fee, we will no longer have CAC, the State fund athletics? No way but then who NYPIRG, the Biology Club or any of the hobby and will? You will of course. The Board of Trustees will special interest clubs. The clubs are an essential part of this University, as thousands of students belong to probably impose an athletic fee (which will be them. Plus, a lot of these groups do service that $40.00 and you, as mandatory) of about $35.00 students will have NO SAY in how it is spent. That’s affect a lot more students. UB offers a lot to the community through many of these groups; without right, if you want recreational hours extended at the the clubs we’ve closed our doors to the community. Bubble, tough shit, you lost your say. Services: This University has the best line of services I know many of you are probably thinking, “Why of any SUNY school. Mandatory fees pay for the should I pay money so the community will benefit?” Because we (the University), do not live in a cocoon Health Care program from the Dental Clinics to the and actions that benefit the community also benefit Pharmacy to the Birth Control/Family Planning Clinic. UUAB shows movies for $.75 on weekends you. How much is it worth to you to see an and for free on weekdays. Concerts are at least $2.00 underprivileged child or an elderly person smile? $67.00? Or is that too much? cheaper when sponsored by UUAB. (Admission to How much is it worth to have the New York The Kinks for example was $3.50 when UUAB ran it State promoters.) lulu’s abolished? Or nuclear energy curbed? sponsored by private $7.50 and when The Art Gallery (Gallery 219) is free as is the $67.00 or do you care? Is social change worth $67.00? And what about SA? Everyone bitches Browsing Library and Music Room. Two of the most popular services are the Legal about what we do, but we still have the four-course Services Clinic, and the Off-Campus Housing Office. load, our Spring vacatipn, a one semester housing The Legal Services Program offers legal advice (and contract, an Orientation Handbook and many in the future, hopefully representation) on almost all You may bitch about us, but think of the regressive changes that would have occurred in this University the areas that students need. If you got busted for drugs, it would cost you a minimum of $350.00 for if we weren’t thei. We also have coordinators, so that the groups that were left out in the past can a lawyer. Under this plan it would cost you nothing for legal representation. This program is like an now have events and services geared towards them. insurance policy, hopefully you will never need it, They range from Commuter Breakfasts to the but if you do, it’s there. If you vote the fee down, it Minority and International Orientations. So think about it. You lose all this (and more) if won’t be there. 1 don’t know if I should bring it up, but The the mandatory fee is defeated. If you don’t like how Spectrum is paid for in part out of mandatory fees. I the fee money is spent, change the priorities. You don’t know if it’s a good arguing point, but without have the power. But don’t vote it down to teach us the fees, we may lose The Spectrum. By using the (SA) a lesson, because the big losers will be you. travel service, you can save enough money to justify Without the fee, we will take one step backwards and this campus will be boring (and if you think it’s your $67.00 right off the bat (without the fee you well just wait). And the worst thing could not utilize “the Now York City to Florida trip boring now you’ll be screwing yourself, because about it is that Security Compound he Bike $99.00” for package). I handles hundreds of bikes a year and the Student as The Spectrum said two years ago NOTHING IS Directory was mailed to all students.

It’s your decision iln! directory and the mistakes will be corrected for now. — — — — — note: The following letter was directed to undergraduate students: Dear Undergraduate On February 20, members of the Graduate Student Employees Union the Teaching and Graduate Assistants who instruct many of you voted in favor of conducting a strike referendum from March 14th through March 19th. We expect that a majority of TAs and GAs will vote affirmatively; in that case, a strike will be held in order to pressure the Ketter administration to negotiate with us. As you know, many of the issues to be negotiated are crucial to Troth undergraduates and 1) limiting TAs and GAs. They include: undergraduate class size; 2) resisting proposed changes in the credit/contact hour status detrimental to you and your instructors; 3) encouraging a program of equal opportunity affirmative action for people with non-traditional backgrounds; 4) demanding better security on campus for both undergraduate and graduate students; 5) restoring services essential to all of us. GSEU is working to improve your learning conditions and our working conditions. Many of you are already' supporting the expected GSEU job action, because you realize the quality of your education is at stake. However, Some undergraduates are worried about the immediate effects a strike will have on them. It is true that until the Ketter administration negotiates’ with us, we will not teach classes. And, like you, we will not attend classes; we will face the same problems you face by refusing to attend classes. Some of you erroneously believe that you will not receive credit for your classes because of the job action. But we are your welfare. One of our concerned about non-negotiable demands to the administration will be academic amnesty for you. This means that you will not be penalized when you support our job action. Furthermore, after our demands have been satisfied, we will do everything possible to compensate for classes missed during a strike. Various options will be available; we can hold makeup classes or we can employ compensatory grading, a system in which you are graded.for the work you have done while classes were still being held, before the strike. We will not permit your academic careers to be jeopardized. In the coming weeks, many TAs and GAs will be talking to you about our job action and its effects On you. During classtime, we encourage you to ask any questions you have about the strike and about its immediate and long-term consequences. You’ll find that, in the long run, you will benefit from our job action; it will secure a better learning situation for each of you. We’re asking you to support us now, when our mutual welfare is at stake. Your support will force the administration to come to the negotiating table more quickly; your help will shorten the time it takes the administration to meet our demands. Thus, we may resume normal activities more quickly, and resume teaching and attending classes. You can begin to help by asking your instructor about the job action. You can help us further by joining the undergraduate committee which is assisting us now. It will be meeting in Norton at 2:00 p.m. this Thursday, March 3. Cindy Whiting (883-5936) can give you more information about the undergraduate support movement. With your help, we can build a better academic environment. We invite you to join us and urge you to work with us. - — -- Sincerely, Innovation not considered To the Editor. In the Spectrum's evaluation of candidates for office, it was stated that Student Association (S.A.) should be “an organization where people with ideas and leadership can bring student influence to bear on the University decision-making process.” However, in the endorsements, stress was put mainly on experience in S.A. and on a clear understanding of the issues. Innovative ideas and candidates’ abilities to work with people are barely skimmed over. INSIGHT feels that candidates’ views on the issues should influence the elections, yet Spectrum neglected to include many of the more important positions of our party. Wiih Faculty research as the criterion for educammal excellence at this University, S.A. should be concerned with changing this criterion to one of teaching ability. The Students Course and Teacher Evaluation (S.C.A.T.F..) has been an expensive nop. INSIGHT feels that by making S.C.A.T.E. shorter, simpler; more available, and mandatory tor all departments it can become an effective tool in the The GSEU determination of teacher effectiveness. Within S.A. itself, the budget must remain a high priority. Although endorsing our Treasurer, Spectrum criticizes INSIGHT for not giving athletics a special position in the financial process. We feel that the expenditure of our mandatory fee must be decided in a general context. Athletics should not be guaranteed a funding level which will limit monies given to all other clubs and organizations from SA. Finally, INSIGHT brings a new enthusiasm and determination to get things done in a S.A. which has, in the past, been ineffective.

Our four-year Department commitment to athletics on this campus always seem to be somewhat of a “controversy.” There are those who feel opr commitment to athletics is “feeble” while others feel we give “way too much.” One thing is certain, most people are not satisfied with the program. With this in mind, we at SA felt that in order for the program to flourish, we must make a strong commitment to its stability. For them (the Athletic Department) to function on a year-by-year basis is ridiculous. It is impossible to put together a decent program when you do not know if your team will be cut at the whim of the Financial Assembly. Assembly If this passes, however, the Financial lose its year-to-year decisions on establishing the Students will still oversee the expenditures amount. ' and a review board will set their priorities with the consent of the Assembly. So you won’t be giving up control (the SA Treasurer can still freeze funds] you’ll just be taking the Athletic Budget out of the “political” infighting. Besides, if this passes, the U.B. Foundation will match funds to bring back a fpotball team. They will only invest money in a stable program. I As a student, 1 am going to vote this week, and am going to vote yes. I want the Athletic program to be stable apd to grow. I think this is the only way to do it (short of large increases in their budget). Thank you.

I would like the opportunity to reply to Steve Spitz’s statement concerning his perspectives and goals for the position of Director of Academic Affairs. Mr. Spitz expresses his deep concern for the maintenance of the Four Course load, and for the quality of education at this University, both important goals for a person seeking the directorship. His description of my role this year as Director, however, can at best be termed as crass and unsupportive, at worst slanderous and liable. Mr. Spitz has taken the position of attacking my actions, and has failed to provide the student body with any concrete goals for the future. What is particularly troublesome to me is not the fact that he is questioning my abilities, but rather that he is basing his attacks on issues that he has either no knowledge of or has failed to investigate. Mr. Spitz has correctly stated that my name is not a household word in The Spectrum. What, however, Mr. Spitz has failed to mention is that the issues that an Academic Affairs Director works on have been constantly in the news. The Four Course Load issue, issues dealing with the' Colleges, SCATE, the Undergraduate Course Description Handbook, the Faculty Senate committees, grievance procedures, TAP, etc., are all examples of projects I have been working on. The fact that the Four Course Load will remain the same next year, following the same basic format, is a result of many hours of research and action. I* representing the student body, spoke in front of the SUNY Board of Trustees to plead our case. Along with this, I made several trips to Albany to investigate the situation, and was in front of the Faculty Senate on a number of occasions, and the results were positive. Throughout, this period information was constantly provided to and through The Spectrum, urging both student involvement at public meetings and providing students with an idea of what was happening. Perhaps, Mr. Spitz, if you had read The Spectrum you would have been aware of these things. Moreso, if you had taken any amount of time to investigate this office, you would have been aware of all these facts and many more. Unfortunately, as a candidate running for such an important office that would effect the lives of all undergraduates on this campus, you did not. Andrew Lalonde Director of Academic Affairs The losing basketball season To the Editor. Let us begin by stating outright that we wholeheartedly support the U.B. Basketball Team, and in particular, we love Coach Leo Richardson. We wish to respond to the accusations levelled by Richard Allen, Mark Davis, Andy Lipkin and Don Christie, hereafter referred to as the “Armchair Four.” Considering the lack of support which the Coach receives from the higher echelons at this University, he has performed admirably. The Armchair Four’s letter of February 21 naively states that the Coach “had a lineup of four guards 6’2” or shorter” in the game. This is outright propaganda. The presence of the four guards did not Exceed a few minutes playing time and, besides, was integral to the comeback effort of the Bulls. As far as Coach Richardson’s general strategy of starting a shorter and quicker line up, we think this was a sound game plan. Consider the fact that the offense was getting open for their shots but was merely cold in the first half, a truism which even the most omnipotent of Coaches can not be held accountable for. Instead of capricious criticism, the Coach deserves all the credit in the world for having the foresight to stick with that very same offense which the unfortunate Armchair Four feel was ineffective; Consider further that this same offense brought the team back from a twenty point deficit and then sent the game into overtime. The mentality that stresses a team’s deficit and then selectively perceives any comeback effort is the same egomaniacal mentality which is at the root of the cynicism which governs our lives. The Armchair Four claim that the Coach never fallacy, and even if it wasn’t, so what? As far as never yelling instructions, Coach Richardson is one of the most animated coaches we know of; always yelling defensive assignments and calling for play “Three.” As for his reluctance to call spur-of-the-moment times out, this is a page from John Wooden’s book and we are sure you wouldn’t criticize Coach Wooden for the same tactic, or would you? The further belief of the Armchair Four that potential -prejudice is behind keeping Coach Richardson is so assinine and downright BABY that it really is not worth discussing. To hold Richardson “most responsible” for the team’s record shows a lack of understanding which far exceeds that of even a comatose hospital patient. A team’s won-loss record does not reveal the entire story and is not the guage with which we should pass judgement on the Coach or the team. The criteria upon which we have chosen to base our opinion is far less tangible. Why don’t we all give credit to a team which gives 100% at all times. To see a united bench led by Coach Richardson, as in their 78-77 victory over Canisius (a coaching gem considering the abundance of injuries and foul trouble) reveals to us that the Bulls have not yet lost heart, so why should we? Heart, motivation, and desire is something which is inbred in the ballplayers and deeply imbued in Coach Richardson. Without a recruiting system and within a structure which forces the Coach to split his time up, this is all we can ask argues with officials. This is an absolute for. Louis Masur Mark Rich man �bullpen by David J. Rubin Special Features Editor My father couldn’t drive me to school last Friday so 1 decided to take a Metro Bus instead. I don’t like paying for the bus, but it doesn’t hurt so much when I use those bus tokens which are discounted by student mandatory fees. Anyhow since 1 was a bit early, I stopped off in the Union to get a qucik bite. As I walked in, I suddenly remembered that it was Commuter Breakfast Day. “Oh boy,” thought I. “Now I can eat for free, courtesy of student mandatory fees, and I’ll probably even run into some friends of mine that 1 don’t see too often.” As it turned out, I ran into so many people that before I knew what had happened I missed my class. Anyhow, while I waited for my next class in Haas Lounge, listening to a folk singer being paid for by student mandatory fees, I picked up a copy of The Spectrum, which is also partially funded by student mandatory fees. Glancing through it, I noticed an ad for a Leon Redbone concert that was being sponsored next weekend by student mandatory fees. Being quite a Leon Redbone fan, 1 dug into my wallet, only to find that the cupboard was bare. “Where can I get bucks for a couple of tickets?” I thought. The answer turned out to be the Student Association (SA) office. I realized that I had sold some books in the SA Book Exchange, which incidentally is funded by student mandatory fees, and that I never had picked up my check. Problem solved, with dollars to spare. I cruised over to class and was totally bored. In fact, I was so bored, that 1 began to daydream. I dreamt that 1 saw a beautiful ten speed Peugeot bike in that Lockwood Bicycle Lot which is funded by student mandatory fees. I really wanted it because I was sick of my old three-speed. So I dreamt that I took it. Unfortunately, about 25 people saw me take it, and in a matter of moments I was arrested. Fortunately there was enough money in Legal Services’ bail fund (which is funded by student mandatory fees) so that 1 was back on the street in no time. Class ended, and so did the dream. On my way to lunch, I again stopped at the SA office and picked application for a student mandatory up an fee-sponsored undergraduate research grant. I have dhis great idea for a sociological study of life on Chippewa Street, but 1 couldn’t affort to finance the experiments alone. But my meal was interrupted when 1 remembered that I had to get my sister a-birthday present today. I charged into the Record Coop which is funded by student mandatory fees and grabbed Joni Mitchell’s newest, Hejira. The price was so cheap, that the remains of my book exchange money was enough to cover it. Since classes were finished for the day, J decided to take inBye Bye, Birdie which was being sponsored by student mandatory fees especially for commuter students who don’t like coming to campus at night. I bumped into a friend of mine in Conference Theater who asked me if I wanted to come to a beer blast in Ellicott tonight. 1 asked her who was sponsoring it, and she told me it was SA Student Activities using student mandatory fees. I had to turn down her invitation, though, because I was going to the Bulls’ hockey game that night and then skating afterwards. (Just in case anyone is still wondering, athletics are sponsored by student mandatory fees.JShe suggested I drop by afterwards* and I accepted. I had some spare time after the movie, so I stopped of at the birth control clinic, (surprise! The birth control clinic is funded by student mandatory fees) just in case. Since it was still too soon for me to catch my normal lift back home, I decided to do some light studying in the student mandatory fee funded Browsing Library. But the music playing in the music room, which, by the way, is funded by student mandatory fees, was so enjoyable, that 1 got " no work done. Anyhow, I met the guy who drives me home, and we headed for his car. On the way, we got into a fairly heated discussion about student mandatory fees.

My medical bills were covered by the health insurance program through Sub Board’s Health Care Division which is funded by—you guessed it—student mandatory fees. equired attendance unfair "o the Editor. I am a graduate student in the Department of Elementary and Remedial Education. For some reason, unknown to me, the professors of this department feel free to require attendance in classes when the University is officially closed. I am referring here to one professor in particular who is holding a mandatory class on Tuesday, April 5. pThere was a valid (?) reason for this at the beginning ■of the semester; since, most of the students in the ■class are teachers in the Buffalo area (who were ■ supposed to have their Easter recess the week after UB’s) the two weeks were simply interchanged. Because of the snow, the public schools have lost their Easter vacation, but the teacher has kept with her original schedule. Although class has been cancelled- for April 12, those who do not attend the April 5 class are required to write a paper. Somehow, this does not seem fair to those of us who follow the University’s schedule. The teacher I am referring to is not the only one who has done this, either. I would be interested in a response from the administration as to why this sort of thiiig is allowed to continue. BOOK SALE Name withheld upon request Oh great and mighty present both sides of the story. The Spectrum however, seems satisfied only to print what it agrees To the Editor. , Pardon me, 1 believe your hypocrisy is showing. In the February 14 Spectrum, freedom of expression was the subject for the editor-in-chief’s editorial. It dealt with a recent court case in which that freedom was being attacked, and you came to its rescue using such stinging defensive phrases as: “There is greater danger in censorship, than in allowing publishers and filmmakers to sell whatever adults will buy,” “Freedom is lost in small steps,” and, (my favorite), “Censorship and tyranny go hand in hand.” Interesting. It seems only like last year (perhaps it was) when vice president Dr. Richard A, Siggelkow condemned The Spectrum for denying the U.S. Marine Corps the right to place an ad in its newspaper. He said it was a type of a completely restrictive policy that clearly infringes on the rights of the sponsoring redership” (Guest Opinion, Spectrum, 10 November 76). Curious Oh great and mighty Spectrum , please explain how you can rant and rave for freedom of expression and then deny a military institution the chance to do so in your paper? Someone once told me one of the most important laws of responsible journalism was to with. (This might be allowable if the paper wasn’t funded from student fees). Because it is, however, The Spectrum owes it to all students to present all points of view, no matter how much they bother its present Editor-in-Chief. Your notice in the Want Ads section state that they may hot discriminate in any way. Yellow deny any military advertising to be placed at all in your newspaper. A slight inconsistency here? Damn right it is! Your deciding arbitrarily what should and should not be printed is a cause for great concern. God only knows what might have been printed if The Spectrum did not happen to disagree with it. So come on down-off your cloud, Spectrum. Your high sounding words of freedom, no censorship, and non-discrimination are sounding a little empty these days. If you decide to continue your policy of no military ads, at least acknowledge it for the double standard it is. And please, in the future, spare us from your endless repetition for freedom of speech and expression. If you think you’re doing us all a favor by deciding what we can and cannot read, guess again.

In addition, the teachers were also found to be spending three times the usual amount of time on economics back in their own classrooms. “We constantly get requests for information and help in developing new chairs,” says Dr. Michael Mescon, holder of the Georgia State chair and a free enterprise pioneer. One of the most unique free enterprise programs is taught at St. Mary’s Texas school..

As administrative assistant in charge of busing, it is his job to make sure that thousands of students are able to get to class on time each day. Frieday’s is an often thankless job which, nowadays is performed amidst grumbling and a growing number of complaints. Bob Smith, an Ellicott resident and junior in engineering, criticized the scheduling of the buses saying, “There is an insufficient number of buses during the rush hours. Even if there is a bus there it doesn’t mean you’re going to get on it.” Other users voice similar complaints and Frieday is willing to concede, “There are times when service stinks and it’s my fault because I don’t have the Roger told of sweltering buses, freezing buses and buses with inoperable windows.

One of the members, Larry Repanes, does his job so diligently he is known to the drivers as “Roger’s Stoolie. Perhaps the committee’s most important contribution, according to Frieday, is “informing me of special events.” This allows for extra bus service to be arranged. For instance, preparations for the upcoming chemistry exam on March 8 are being .made not only by students, but by Frieday as well. Still, many students complain about the bus service.

With the toll inflation takes, it costs more and more to provide the same service. For example, Blue Bird won the contract for the next three years when their sealed bid (opened in January) turned out to be the lowest submitted. Yet their proposed $600,000 charge for the first year alone represents a 30 percent increase over this year’s cost. For that amount of money, Frieday is able to run eight transit-type (two-door) and 12 to 14 school buses during the day along with reduced service for the much lighter weekend and nighttime runs. The problem then becomes one of efficiency, that is, setting up a schedule that makes the most of the molited amount of buses and then making sure the that following drivers are — consensus seems to be that busing between campuses is an inherently faulty idea with many students looking forward to the day when the Amherst Campus is fully operational.

Hockey Bulls' goaltender John Moore dropped both ends of a weekend set with favored Western Michigan, but his stellar work in Buffalo's net empitomized his performances for Buffalo over the past two and a half seasons. He stopped 88 of 97 shots over the two games, and time and again brought the crowd to its feet with his dazzling saves and flashy style. John Moore will be sorely missed when the hockey Bulls hit the ice next NOW winter. We also honor as Co-Athlete-of-the-Week freshman Gabi Gray (shown here shooting) of the women s basketball team, who was Buffalo s only highlight in a losing effort to Canisius at the Big Four Championship this weekend, and who also starred in the Bulls win over Buffalo State. Gray s hustle helped keep the score respectable during the second half of the Canisius game, and she led the Bulls in scoring with 20 points. Her fine defense and accurate shooting also contributed to Buffalo s win over the Bengals.

Buffalo coach Walter Gantz was understandably pleased with the performance of Ryerson and Halady but also praised the of development surprising freshman Bob Reiss. For the third week in a row Reiss recorded the fastest leg on the mile relay team. His accomplishments have earned honor of being the him anchorman on the relay team. Buffalo Overall, the performance was a weak one. In four of the twelve events the Bulls had no one to represent them and scored in Only half of the remaining events. Gantz felt that although his team is facing much is definitely it adversity improving. “We’re hoping that as* the season progresses we’ll be able to put in more practice time," he said. Currently the track men must train in the Amherst Bubble, and due to a peculiar scheduling arrangement they are allotted only forty-five minutes of use early in the afternoon. Not only are many team members still in class at this time but when warm-up, warm-down and changing are considered it leaves the Bulls with an effective training time span of only fifteen minutes several outstanding Despite individual efforts, Buffalo’s track team was overwhelmed Saturday in its clash with Alfred University and Mansfield State. Host Alfred won the meet scoring 70 points while Mansfield State and Buffalo finished far behind with 37 and 16 points respectively. A stellar performance was turned in by senior distance man John Ryerson who not only scored half the team’s points but also was Buffalo’s only individual winner. The mile run, in which pitted against was Ryerson Alfred’s top distance runner, turned into a two jnan battle with the lead changing frequently until the last eighty yards when a applied powerful Ryerson finishing kick that carried him across the finish line, winning witji a time of 4:31. Ryerson came back an hour later only to enter another tough two man battle in the two mile run. This time,' however, it was Ryerson who was edged in the last few yards as he crossed the finish line at 9:59. Another bright spot for the Bulls was the record breaking performance of senior weight man Walt Halady. Halady won the 35 pound hammer throw event, with per day.

A Faculty Senate subcommittee will then evaluate each course and determine whether an additional contact hour will be necessary to comply with the Dearing memorandum. The memorandum, issued to SUNY presidents this summer, mandated that all SUNY schools conform to the Carnegie unit, 3 credit hours for 3 contact hours (3 for 3) in the scheduling of their courses or show reasonable justification for offering more credits than contact hours. Since most of the science-related fields already employ the Carnegie unit, humanities and social sciences will be the most seriously affected. Naturally, this system has caused problems, especially in scheduling. While some justified units plan to schedule courses on the Monday, Wednesday, Friday (MWF) 50 minute and Tuesday, Thursday (TTH) 80 minute schedule, other courses whose unequal contact/credit hours remain unjustified by next fall will have to schedule an additional contact hour to satisfy the requirements. A memorandum to department chairmen ststes, '“Presumably, those courses which request 4-3, and are disallowed by the Faculty Senate committee (because of educationally unjustified or negative impaction on 4 course load) will be scheduled for a fourth contact hour during the noon period.” This means courses that retain the present time slots, with the exception of the noon period which will remain open for those courses requiring additional contact hours. Budgets The committee, whose primary function will be approve the justifications made by various departments, will also supervise maintenance of the existing system by asking each department for their evaluations of it. to SUNY campus budgets are determined by the number of credit hours allotted for each course, with more money allocated to those schools offering more credits, which, therefore deems it impractical for this University to change to the 5 course, 3 credit system. Undergraduate Dean, Walter Kunz refered to the present controversy surrounding the credit system as “a kind of inflation,” saying, “We are merely defining what a credit is worth at this University.” Schedule problems If an instructor or department cannot or will hot offer justification for a course’s unequal contact/credit system, they must either decrease the amount of credit hours or extend the contact hours to meet the Dearing requirements. Extension of the contact hours for those courses would mean the addition of a Jtjjntr‘ period instead of the previously proposed 65/100 minute extension of all the time periods. Obviously, the 65/100 minute schedule could not work in conjunction with courses still utilizing the 50/80 minute schedule, and the only other alternative for those courses not meeting the justification would be the implementation of an additional time period. > - * Michele Cohen Spectrum Present four-course load to be retained through ’77 —’78 Spectrum SUNY offers study programs overseas by Reprieve provided for justification by Paulette Buraczenski Summer or semester Staff Writer Study abroad programs offer students the chance to become more than another anonymous face absorbing the v words of an omniscient professor, to do more than spend hours turned into days with a book in a university library. There is a world of people and places which provide endless opportunities for students to learn and to develop human understanding; a world that is filled with stimulating and unique experience simply waiting for the eyes, ears, and minds of those who are inquisitive. This University makes that world easily accessible through a variety of study abroad programs sponsored here and at other state schools. Fifty-seven fields of study are offered in over 27 countries. Students’ options are further broadened by a choice of spending a year, semester, or summer studying abroad. Subjects range from foreign language and linguistics, to fine arts (art history), teacher education, European Common Market, archaeology, anthropology, criminal justice, oceanography, geology, and even include such specialties as landscape architecture and international broadcasting. New program to Quebec SUNY at Buffalo sponsors six programs, four of which take place in the summer. A new intensive French language program at Laval University in Quebec will be made available to students for the first time this July. There are no language prerequisites and people can be placed at different levels of proficiency. The 8 credits can help satisfy a semester of French required as a prerequisite for study at Grenoble. Pierre Aubery, Director of Undergraduate Studies in French, who formulated and conceived the program, is enthusiastic about Quebec as a burgeoning city. A summer at Laval provides participants the chance to be immersed in new and stimulating surroundings; however, living in Quebec does not present the cultural shock that living in France presents for some. Travel costs to Quebec are evidently less than to Europe. This University offers other possibilities to spend a summer abroad. One can learn about British primary schools through Didsbury College in Manchester, England, explore geology in Tecapan, Mexico -and study Spanish in Salamanca, Spain.'" The full year programs feature Puerto Rican studies in San Juan, Puerto Rico and French language and civilization in Grenoble, France. i According to a memorandum issued by the committee chairman Clarke Murdock, if the instructor or department decides to decrease the credit hours of a given course instead of extending its contact hours, they must prove to the committee that they are “not seriously impairing the ability of students to meet existing degree requirements,” Courses for elective credit It is recommended that students take elective credit for their k overseas courses rather than applying credit to their major. Of course, language is an exception. For example, studying French in France (or in Quebec) is the optimun learning and living situation for acquiring fluency. Unlike at ■ Cornell, Princeton, and other private institutions, studying abroad is not difficult to arrange for the student here. The applicant does not have to apply for a leave of absence from this University *or apply as a visiting student to the overseas school. If the program is being arranged through another state school, applications are submitted there while one remains a registered student here. Applications for this summer must be submitted by April 1, for the fall semester of ’77 by March 15, and for the spring of ’78 by November 1st. Qualifications for students interested in foreign study are not stringent. Unless a program has a limited amount of space, most students are accepted into it. The application covers basic information about major,, grade point average, and semester credits completed to date. A proficiency form is necessary if courses will be taken in another language. The costs of studying abroad are similar to the costs of studying at Buffalo. The basic difference is the air fare. Touching, spiritual moments Students who have taken a semester or year abroad can only speak enthusiastically and postively about their experience. Some relate touching, spiritual moments. . . . The quiet of evening settles. Birds circle overhead, their calls echoing in the absence of sound. Men and women separate as they wind their way toward the Western Wall. Suddenly, a spiral of dancing youth twists in and out among the worshippers drawing them into their spirited movement and song. Then, silence and prayer Susan Scull attended Hebrew University ii) Jerusalem for a year where she feels her personal insights and awareness as a world citizen increased tremendously. Regina Spirito, a participant in the Grenoble program, also feels she benefited greatly from her experience. In addition to her university classes, she also taught English in a French school, underscoring the endless possibilities are endless for various learning opportunities. This spring semester 36 students from this University are taking advantage of study abroad programs in such places as Belgium, Costa Rica, Ireland, England, the Mediterranean, Singapore, and USSR.

Jeffrey Curtis, Overseas Program Advisor, feels that not many people are aware of the existing programs and that there is a misconception about the cost. Professor Aubery attributes part of the reason to the uneasiness some students might encounter adjusting to new living conditions and culture.

An additional $150 in questionable receipts will be reviewed by a committee headed by SA treasurer Neil Seiden. Should the court determine money was stolen or otherwise misappropriated the charges would involve grand larceny. The decision by SA to resort to court action was reached after the deadline of a 10-day extension granted BSU for the purpose of accounting for the funds in question had passed. According to SA spokesmen the deadline passed “without any word from BSU.” When asked why BSU seemingly ignored the deadline, Haddock explained, “I had to refuse to that phase of the investigation because of the conditions that were imposed on me. They (SA) wanted me to justify the receipts without John Lott being present. He, in effect, is the one they’re accusing of theft.” Lott, a BSU executive board member at that time allegedly had final control of the funds and therefore has the final accountability. Specific guidelines However, since Lott was expelled as the result of a scuffle in the SA office last December, it was not legally possible for him to meet with SA on campus and SA firmly refused to conduct any busines off campus. “We are satisfied with the amount stated in the audit,” said Haddock. Haddock emphasized it is his belief the funds were definitely applied toward legitimate club expenses. “Even if this is the case,” asserted Seiden, “there are very specific guidelines for financial control to which all SA organizations are subject.” Seiden revealed a document, «igned by the leaders of BSU, indicating that they had read, understood, and would abide by the financial guidelines established for all the SA groups. Addressing this point, Haddock said, “Except for this one occurrencev the BSU always has and always will follow the ' financial guidelines. This incident was not so much an oversight as an act of rebellion evolving from the severely strained relations between BSU and SA.” The long range ramifications of the controversy will probably include some administrative and SA policy changes. / Possible administrative changes According to Seiden, a committee consisting of Sub-Board Treasurer Arthur Lalonde, Assistant Vice President of Student Affairs Howard Deuell and Assistant to the Director for Student Affairs and Services Dick Lidge and Seiden will convene this week to discuss such changes, inducting the possibility of a revision of the existing cash advance system. Other administrative changes are also likely. Seiden implied that future BSU budget adjustments could not be ruled out. According to Seiden, of the 63 organizations being funded through SA as of the current fiscal year, BSU has the largest budget. Considering the final outcome of the whole controversy, Haddock was optimistic. “I’m hoping that with the elections a new tone will develop for BSU/SA relations and that finally there will be better communications and rapport,” he said. Seiden was optimistic too, claiming, “I hope the incident will get more blacks interested in BSU. If this occurs I believe that the leadership will come close to acting in accordance with the majority opinion.” mm S.A. and The Brazilian Club present - Dance away February!!

Sub Board Treasurer Lalonde defends his awarding of bonuses Sub Board Treasurer Arthur Lalonde has said he “bears the burden” for giving certain Sub Board Division Directors and bonuses at workers $20-40 Christmastime, in addition to their regular stipends. Lalonde said his “rare act of semi-generosity” arose from his opinion that the individuals who received the monies had done a “markedly better job” than their predecessors in their respective positions. “I wanted the individuals to know Sub Board had taken note of their excellent efforts and wanted to thank them,” he said. “Anyone who says that different people, appointed to the same position, do an equally good job is either a' liar or a fool.” Lalonde declined to name the 7-10 individuals who received the Union University but cash, Activities Board Division Director Jeff Lessoff acknowledged that he had been among them. Lessoff said he returned the money because, he “felt guilty,” but does feel he deserved it. Doing better job Lalonde pointed out that many of Sub Board’s Division Directors and employees handle $20-40 thousand dollar budgets, for areas Dance to ranging from Publications. He feels that if someone knows they are receiving the same money while doing a better job than their predecessor that they may be bitter about it. He did not wish to reward them publically, however, because he feared other Sub Board employees who were not would be upset. He explained that many did President Ketter returns from prosperous study leave by Danny Parker that know President Robert Ketter was away on a sabbatical, or “study leave,” last semester. Very few people know what he did. In an interview in his office Tuesday, Ketter gave the details of a “prosperous” trip which he said included travel, research, and completion of a textbook in his field of Civil Engineering. Most people do not realize that Ketter still had full responsibility as University president and that he could step back in at x any moment if the situation warrented his intervention. Executive Vice President Albert Somit Was Acting President in Ketter’s absence, and was responsible for everyday implementation of administration policies. Ketter met with Somit four or five times during his absence, and maintained constant contact with the University by receiving The Spectrum and The Reporter by mail. Dublin and Zurich., In Paris, he attended a conference ■ of the Institute of Higher Education, in is University which this represented on the executive committee. He presented a tutorial on the management of higher education and is helping organize a three day seminar on the same topic. This will take place in September, and Ketter will be the lead speaker. In Dublin, Ketter met with members of Trinity College and helped organize them an engineering school. At present there is no school of engineering in Ireland. He assisted in planning a ciriculum and advising on the hiring of faculty personnel. major accomplishment His during his time off was completing engineering an textbook with co-authors George Lee, C. Chairman of the Department of Civil Engineering, and Sherwood Prawel, Associate Professor of Engineering. This is the first of a two volume series that will be out in the spring and runs between 800 and 850 pages.

Ketter also traveled to Paris, . According to Ketter, major relief from the job came from being away from the “intensity.” Ketter enjoyed his study leave because “it allowed me to get back into my discipline, which is most important. 1 believe that every administrator should have a discipline in addition to their management and administrative responsibilities.” In the past, Ketter has taught one course a year, but this year did not because of his leave. Robert Ketter Every five years, the University President is eligible to seek a leave, on study from the Board of Trustees and recommendation of the College Council. Ketter was scheduled for his first study leave two years ago, but was needed here to handle such important matters as the budget cutbacks. This past semester, Ketter’s six month study leave was approved provided he maintained certain responsibilities. He was to be responsible for defending the budget, being chairman of the Executive Committee of the University of Buffalo Foundation, and in charge of dealing with any construction problems at the Amherst Campus.

Gilbert in the history . of the NFG President Louis Reif termed them “a slight improvement.” Responding to critics who felt NFG was makjpg “windfall profits,” and thought it inappropriate that the company was doing so well given the disastrous impact the gas shortage has had on Buffalo, Reif declared that despite the profit gains, the company in the first quarter of this year would be forced to absorb “windfall losses.” He gave no rreasoning. In November, when informed that the state’s utility regulation agency , had granted only two percent of a requested 11 percent increase in gas rates, Reif said the decision was “disasterous” for the company’s ability to “provide energy for Western New York.” company, Contributing Editor On January 27, National Fuel Gas (NFG) reported its profits for the fourth quarter of 1976—reflecting its performance during the important first months of this unusually bitter winter. Net income (profits) were up 90 percent from the same quarter in 1975-almost doubling to $10.1 million. Earnings per common share were up 77 percent, on revenues that were 48 percent about 1975-NFG took in more than $155 million in the three months ending December 30. have Industry analysts predicted even greater earnings for NFG this quarter, due to a winter intensifying in cold (January was far colder than December) and to an ongoing employee strike that Aberation’s soar NFG’s sudden success is far will curtail expenditures (labor costs), but will leave , revenue from at\ local aberation—utilities unaffected (gas bills must still be nationwide are doing well, and gas companies especially, though both paid in full). Though fourth quarter and electric and telephone companies total 1976 profits were both the have little about which to complain. AT&T recently recorded a historic profit level-its first billion dollar year. Two of the nation’s largest gas Pacific Gas and companies, Electric, and Oklahoma Natural Gas both registered profit improvements of more than 60 percent over the course of 1976. Oklahoma profits over five years (since 1970) had increased only 33 percent. The explanation for these startling changes lies in the relation between a gas company’s expenses and its revenue. As with most economic institutions, initial fixed costs are very high and remain the same or increase only slowly whether one cubic foot of natural gas is pumped, or several billion. With greater and greater volume achieved, profit margins soar. Shortage is more pumped A main reason for the excellent performance of gas companies in shortage stricken areas is the rate structure which charges small (home and small business) users more than large users-such industry as steel and auto here in Buffalo, according to The New York Times, A shortage is created, the Times explains, not because far less gas is produced, but because a cold winter causes greater homeowner demand for more gas than is (the industry claims) available in gas reserves. National Fuel in Buffalo, therefore, ends up pumping more gas than ever and must sell to home users as first priority. There is little left for industry in such a situation, but it doesn’t matter, says the Times article-the gas company gets paid much more per cubic foot ($2.03; industry pays $1,56), thereby, achieving vpjy, large profit margins on sales volumes fhat are also larger than normal. NFG had no comment when asked if, in fact, its residential customers are more profitable than its industrial customers. However, last year NFG asked the Public Service Commission for permission supply to 3000 additional home users—evidence that it does not consider home gas heating unprofitable. The request was granted. Higher and higher Gas shortage linked with suspected price conspiracy by R.

The suit had been the result of a Federal Trade Commission investigation into charges by Senator Phillip Hart that gas were producers withholding to obtain, information on higher rates. Gas reserve estimates (gas which is estimated to be both existing and recoverable) that are abnormally low would be a justification in the eyes of the FPC, for higher rates. reserves increases had been felt.

This part deals with the AMA and the drug industry. by Jay Rosen Spectrum Staff Writer Physicians in this country annually write over $100 million worth of drug prescriptions. Americans have, become increasingly dependent on drugs as both medicinal and emotional crutches. Doctors can choose from over 1200 different vigorously promoted compounds, many of which have never been adequately tested. Inexorably, the paths of the American Medical Association (AMA) and the drug industry have crossed. The AMA owns some $28 million worth of drug company stock. In turn, the Drug Industry provides $9 million,,, about 25 percent of annual AMA revenues. Drug industry involvement in medical profession began early. Forceful sellers, known as “detail men,” provided textbooks, slide rules, stethoscopes, and even black leather bags to medical students. Later on, drug company the salesmen entertained doctors and their wives, provided free samples of drugs, and possibly left golf balls complimentary embossed with their companies’ names. Using lists that are bought from the AMA, drug companies bombard physicians with Over 3600 pieces of mail a year per doctor. The industry spends over $25 million in direct mail advertising to persuade doctors to prescribe their drugs. With, annual sales of over $11 billion the industry has grown to mammoth though and proportions competition is at times keen, it has nbt sliced into profits. A Federal Trade Commission (FTC) reports the drug industry is the most in industry profitable ranking ahead of computers, of automobiles and of petroleum. America, “Losses . unheard of” William Mueller, economist for the FTC, testified to a 1968 Senate committee, “Losses, or even low profits, are practically unheard of among large drug companies. In this respect the drug industry is practically unique important among American industries.” .. STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK' in cooperation with the Department of Education and Culture of the Jewish Agency ANNOUNCES: 1977 ELEVENTH SUMMER ACADEMIC PROGRAM IN ISRAEL 6 to 10 College Credits For information write to: DIRECTOR SUNY ISRAEL SUMMER PROGRAM State Univ. College Oneonta, IM.Y. 13820 (607)431-3709 Advertising of drug prices is illegal in most states. Hence, prices for a particular compound often differ widely.. Adding’to the confusion are the brand names companies give to their drugs. An identical compound may go by several names, only one of which is its generic (official) name. New York City once bought 1000 capsules drug of the diphenhydramine for $3. On another occasion, it purchased the same quantity of the drug, from the same company under the brand name of Benadryl for $15.63. Many consumer groups have appealed for standardization of names and prices. The AMA has resisted. Why? Because the battle of brand names is waged in the AMA Journal every month. This translates into millions of dollars of advertising revenue for the Association. Charles May, AM A critic said, “I find the AMA’s acceptance of pharmaceutical advertising in their journal very strange a arrangement. It is as if the Supreme Court had a journal and accepted advertising from those their cases before presenting them.” Drug advertising in the Journal has had a sordid history. In the March 5, 1960 issue, there appeared an article documenting 36 case&. in which girls were born so masculinized that they could have been reared as boys. Their mothers had been treated with a synthetic hormone to reduce the risk of spontaneous abortion. In the same issue, the AMA ran ads for the drug,-iacking a single word of warning ?boUt possible.bawpftiI ffeffects. T?3 ■ Robert Seidenburg of SC NY commented that, “even Good Housekeeping and Parents magazine do a better job in protecting their readership. Is the AMA guilty of drug abuse?” Apparently so. Numerous drugs have appeared in the pages of the AMA advertisements subsequently to be taken off the market because of harmful effects. Yet physicians receive most of their information about company from drugs representatives and industry literature. Harry F. Dowling, former member of the AMA council on drugs has analyzed why doctors subscribe to untested drugs: “Doctors are restive under inaction; to them inaction spells defeat. But while as men of action we know that we must often act in, we before all the evidence c&n all remember times when action taken too soon has led to catastrophe.” The AMA has not helped to reduce the chances of such catastrophe. In 1929, the AMA’s council on drugs adopted a “seal of acceptance.” No drug could be advertised which had not been evaluated by the council and found acceptable. Doctors relied heavily on the seal, and on “Useful Drugs,” a handbook of objective drug information. The drug industry was less than enthusiastic about the seal and the handbook. It began putting pressure on the AMA to pursue a “more reasonable” policy. They offered stepped-up advertising in exchange for a number of “policy changes.” The AMA relented. Changes included abolishment of the seal of acceptance and abandoning the publication “Useful Drugs.” Instead, the drug industry would publish and distribute to doctors its own index to prescriptions, called the Physicians Desk Reference. All material in the guide prepared, edited, approved and paid for by the drug manufacturers. The situation continued until the 1960’s. The AMA’s image was and badly tarnished, its membership began dropping. The decided to Association do something.

The Spectrum's blatantly discriminatory method of stating my candidacy in as few words as possible can only work in the most heinously detrimental manner tq all concerned students.

The present Student Association is a collection of self-serving students with special interests that run contrary to the interests of the student body. It has neither student support nor faculty support its support comes from an administration that can shape it at whim. If any change is going to come, it is going to come from within SA. Stndent apathy has shown that no “referendum” is going to get the support necessary for a nice “Christian burial.” As I stated emphatically on Sunday, I propose the abolishment of Student Association as we know it and I support the removal of mandatory fees and if these alternatives seem so ‘beyond belief,’ well — — .lames.I.

SA can be a representative and respected body through effective use of an executive of comprised committee, knowledgeable people from different walks of University life, who work well together and who's efforts compliment each other. SA cannot be effective if its leaders are antagonistic towards the administration just for the sake of being antagonistic: this will cause an impass and a do-nothing student government. Instead, SA must maintain a working relationship with the administration, and firm determined, in order to protect the rights of students and to actively represent students in University-wide policy-making, as well as in decisions by the faculty and the administration. This is especially necessary in this year of upcoming academic decisions and transition. SA can be made less bureaucratic by increasing the flow of information. ' 3. If the administration were to withhold space on the Amherst Campus, I would immediately negotiate proper with the authorities for this vital student activity area. Other steps to be concurrently undertaken would independent be an Student Association investigation and a well planned public relations campaign. Naturally the first step would be to push for the utilization of extra space wherever available. This question, though, is a hypothetical one next summer the new Talbert-CapenNorton complex will open, this same new student union area that contains Ipss than one-third the square footage of the present Norton Union. I plan to use my .experience in pushing for the construction of the Amherst Gym in pressuring the administration in Albany to complete the student union, namely the construction of JBO and JB1. I will publicly telegram the Governor asking for an appointment in Albany to speak to this matter. I will invite other important student leaders on campus to accompany me, for example, the Editor-in-Chief of The Spectrum and the Director of CAC. This is long range planning for the future of student activities. This must be done this not Community it must show productivity and effectiveness. To earn the respect of the Faculty and Administration, SA must have the full support of the student body; to get that, we , must first show that we care.

In this way, students may approach us with questions and problems without the red tape (thus eliminating some of the bureaucracy) and intimidation of going David Brownstein 1. SA this year has been the epitome of wishy-washiness. Its leadership has shied away from controversy rather than meeting it with force and dealing with the issues. Communications have been lax as well. The BSU-SA incident was a direct result of these breakdowns; it could have T»een prevented with respect and a will to communicate. This last year, SA has been bogged down with indecision and inactivity, and students are the ones who have suffered. SA must now stand up and take issue with the problems at hand, and I think the Insight party is the best equipped to do this. The problems with SA have little to do with its structure it is the people who run the organization who bring it to two people are stagnation (n.b. re-election, for one is running “stepping up"!). The SA has been run in the usual unimaginative fashion, and for it to earn the University the respect of 2. - — through the receptionists and 'secretaries in the office.

At present students have space control over limited assignment in the Union, subject to certain limitations set down by the administration.

In the past year decisions made by the elected representatives of the student body give the impression they were elected by the University administration (Dr. Ketter). Whatever measure of success (if any) which can be attributed to the SA cannot balance its failure to adhere to the mandate of the student body. Therefore, to speak of successes most and failures of SA administration is essentially an exercise futility. The Constitution and Book Rules of the Student of Association are sufficient to deal equitably, in terms of an adequate mechanism to insure student rights. The problem exists in the desire and/or ability of those elected or appointed to represent the best interests of their constituency, the specifically, undergraduate student body of this University. Common sense dictates that in order to function at peak efficiency each elected official must be proficient in their knowledge of the SA constitution and Bookpf Rules and the needs of the students. In addition, they should be at least conversant in a wide range of related areas. In the group events that any or individual elected officials choose to adhere to the basic tenets of the Constitution, the interest of all the students will undoubtedly be served. The bureaucratic excesses of organization are any political based more in ineptitude than in the character of politics. When the character of the process is quantitative then excesses occur. In order to decrease bureaucracv the most feasible approach is to improve the quality of services and provide for meaningful input from the student body. In most cases bureaucratic excesses are a direct result of an inefficient 2. operation. 3. Initially, I would determine what created the situation, whether it was oversight or intent. In the case of an oversight generally, a mutually beneficial alternative can be developed. In instances of fntentional neglect other measures must be taken which -include analyzing the availability of space, alternative locations and as a measure of last resort pressure in the form of petitions, demonstrations, etc... . — out. Dennis Delia 1. This administration has been characterized by lack of direction and by the inability to reach clear decisions or defined policy, therefore I cannot think of any distinct successes of the present administration.

Whether the SA could ever be a truly representative body, I doubt it. The cronyism and machine politics of certain political (or to hear him tell it, non-political) campus fat-cats who are not satisfied until they've taken control of’everything they can possibly get their hands on is quite obscene. It's about time he was hanged too. I hope you will be with me and the TULL Party next week and let the politics of this year die with them.

Yeah is the respected by S.A. administration for its ease in using, respected by the faculty and students in the form of jokes. Good jokes. The failure of the S.A. can be viewed from the simple fact of Schwartz, Spiegel, etc., low profile, silence on important issues and general and incompetence an administration, government and live-style that couldn't give two shits whether they lived or died. Commuters are not represented, inner city, lower ineptness, subservience to are not middle class students represented. Next door neighbors are not represented. This whole is question of representation stupid. There can never be true representation. The best we can hope from S.A. is perhaps an administration divorced from the bureaucratic machinations that infest this campus, one that is somewhat responsive to the needs community campus of the regardless of whose ass is going to land in the frying pan. Yeah, right, vote for me I'll do the job. Bullshit! Vote for me if you want a few laughs, if you want some excitement to break through the mundane.

In this way I would hope effective communication could problems any or alleviate difficulties that may arise before they have a chance to grow. As reaching beyond the for bureaucracy and dealing with the student populace directly, I would attempt to institute various forums in the union, the colleges and in the dorms, that campus issues could be discussed with interested students and members of student government. The key is SA reaching out early, and it is my contention that the majority of the problems that have faced the Student Association this year would not have come to pass if this had been done. Should conflicts arise opposing between individuals and/or organizations, I would meet with those involved to try to Scott. Miller 1. Andy Lalonde my desire to move the senators beyond their traditional senate committee committees, and divide them into subcommittees whose purpose would be to investigate various university-wide interests. These groups, in turn, would be responsible for researching and developing plans of action in their various areas and bring them back to the senate for implementation. Attempts were made to do this this year, but they never got beyond the initial steps. The Vice President would need to be forceful in making this process work, and this would be my goal. In these contexts the vice presidential role would be expressive, but ultimately I would feel it the responsibility of those involved in the senate to carry out these roles, both imaginatively Secondly, and skillfully. 1. I believe it is the role of the Student Senate to become aware of the problems that plague student life on campus, and take the initiative to create and act upon legislation to deal with them. Unfortunately in recent years the Senate has become lackadaisical in its approach to its has remained duties, and ineffective. As Vice President, a beginning step to make the Senate more effective would be to make Operations its and Rules Committee, the committee* designated to provide the Senate agenda, an "actual" functioning group, and use it as a steering the Senate. for attempt would at I to provide various times informational workshops for the senators and interested students on the operations of the University.

I believe that parliamentary procedures should be used for keeping order in the meetings, not to hinder the flow of discussion and ideas. Also, agendas should be sent out before the senate meetings to give Senators and officers the chance to investigate the issues and then get student input on them. At present, in order to have legislation voted on in the Senate, it must first go through the Operations and Rules Committee. This past year, the Operations and Rules Committee met infrequently and when it did meet, it was two or three days before the Senate meeting. Because of this, many pieces of legislation were put off that did has abused procedures The Executive Vice President is responsible for chairing many of the more sensitive meetings held between student groups.

We must demand that the Administration provide us with facilities that are at least comparable with those of the Main Street Campus. Sub-Board must continually publicize its the students services so realize what they are getting for their money. The Board of Directors should make sure that Sub-Board runs as efficiently as possible. This year I have been responsible for the reorganization of UUAB (the largest division of Sub-Board) resulting in greater efficiency of operation. Every dollar spent in Sub-Board must be spent wisely. In the past year I have been extremely disatisfied with the work output of the regular Board of Directors. The committee of executive Sub-Board has done most of the work. This can not continue. 3. it has been said that the professional employees in Sub Board decision-making often take the initiative away from the students. Do you agree or disagree, and why?

By uniting the efforts and resources of the many campus student governments into one organization, the best services and activities possible can be planned and implemented. Within the organization itself, the Board of Directors must guide the various divisions toward providing possible the best services and activities, and make them easily accessible to the student body. The board must establish policy guidelines and see Ur their enforcement, serving as a safeguard to student interests. out interested and Seeking talented individuals to serve in the divisions should also be a priority of the Board of Directors.

Due to a lack of both communication and patience, this proposal was never given a chance to work. Hopefully, cooler heads will prevail and needless troubles will be avoided in '77-'78. It should also be stressed that the UUAB committee process, where concerts and films for all are planned, is always open to suggestions by anyone on campus. Individuals or groups interested in planning concerts or films should feel free to join in the process, with the attitude that they can make a difference. In any student organization with professional employees, the question of control becomes important. Sub Board I is a student corporation, formed by students to serve student needs. Its activities and services are paid exclusively by students through mandatory fees. As such, students must have total control of the corporation and,its functions. Professional employees, with experience and expertise in their fields, serve as employees of the corporation, helping to guide students in providing the best possible activities and services. However, at all times it must be remembered that the final authority within the corporation rests not with the professional employees, and not with the executive director, but with students who serve as the Board of Directors. It is their responsibility to see that students maintain control of the Sub Board decision-making process. Jeff Lessoff Sib-Board I is a student 1. funded not-for-profit organization to designed provide comprehensive services, including concerts, films, coffeehouses/ health care, publications and legal services to all students.

This is an absolute necessity. UUAB must continue to strive for excellent programming. The new $.75 price for films should also continue. The Group Legal Services program must expand its legal seminars and make them refevant to a greater number of students. I would also like to see the growth of an alternative publication to The Spectrum which would provide a different view of must campus life. Sub-Board never be content with what it has done.

In the-general case, students can do very little to prevent the administration from viewing such documents. What in fact should happen is the reverse. Students should demand to see administration operation. For example, how many students have seen the latest Faculty Student (FSA) Association income statement? In fact, the income on that statement is a result of our student money pumped into areas such as the Ellicott Pub. I advocate complete openness of student financial records so both students and administration can fully be aware that -the administration will have to go elsewhere to demean the well placed student effort. In addition, I call for the same openness of the Records. Students University should have access to the same knowledge that the administration demands. undue amounts of paperwork. 2. I feel there should be a much greater means of Communication between the treasurer and the clubs. Until now no treasurer has ever done more than tolerate dealings with our clubs; I intend to encourage interactions between the clubs and the treasurer.

I prevent duplication of effort. Not only is fiscal capital in short believe that financial policies were to aid in the discretion supply, but human capital is also a designed spending, of not hinder it with precious resource. 2. In general, poor accounting cash advances is not a .widespread problem. The current policy of $7.50 a day for meals ($1.50 breakfast; $2.00 lunch and $4.00 dinner) with $.10/mile mileage and open-ended figures for lodging is a fair allocation. The guidelines are reasonably specific on this issue with the provision that the cash advance for trips is money to be spent on expenses directly incurred for the travel (i.e., meals, travel and lodging). In the event that this misuse and poor accounting does become a significant problem, there are several effective ways to handle the situation. First, is simply not to issue advances but rather work it on a reimbursement basis. Secondly, would be a method whereby the major expenses of the trip (lodging and meals) be pre-arranged by the Treasurer's office. A third and much harder view would be to deny travel to those individuals or clubs that consistently problem offer situations. I would use this only as a last resort. These ideas are supported by Aurora as a definite means of responsibility and accountability to the student community and we will do what needs to be done in to maintain the order responsibility in our organization. of believe this action would bring SA and the clubs together; this would eliminate the administrative scrutiny suffered in the past. 3. Concerning the Mandatory Fees, I hope that clubs will realize when submitting a budget that the fees are coming in at a slower pace and enrollment has been curtailed considerably. With the possibility of cuts very strong, I will cut all budgets across the board at the same percentage. I feel this is the only fair procedure. Director for Student Affairs 1. As student affairs coordinator, it will be your responsibility to inform students of their legal rights.

Financial records should never have to be a matter of particularly secrecy, student service records. These records are the primary basis with which both internal and external examiners can evaluate the cost effectiveness of a particular operation. In the case of administration scrutinizing Steve Ferst student run services (as in the example of the Record Coop and 1. The Sunshine Law is Pharmacy) these records should legislation that compels all add credibility to the effectiveness meetings of a public body to be Page ten .

There is no reason for me to run activities since the Director of Student Activities and Services (whose job it is to run activities during the school year) is paid to remain in Buffalo for orientation. throughout My function orientation should be to ORIENT the students and to make their brief stay in Buffalo during the and pleasant as summer, educational as possible. When freshmen come to school in the fall they are completely lost and they do hot know what they are supposed to do. The most important part of orientation is to explain this. Therefore I am going to write a booklet to hand out during orientation which will give a day by day account on what a student has to do during his first when he few weeks in school should pick up his ID card, where to get his schedule changed, etc. Another problem with orientation is its physical makeup. Freshmen are treated like cattle and as a the member of Orientation (which Committee runs orientation) I will attempt to revamp the orientation schedule. One more point that must be made clear is that orientation is not just for freshmen. Transfer students also come to orientation and particular care must be made to assist them in their distinct problems. One way to accomplish this is to have the orientation aides specially trained to deal with the diverse academic problems that transfer students incur. The only way to help students to the become accustomed University campuses is to relieve the problems that the campus The diversity causes. most common problem of this type is the bus service. The main cause of our poor service is lack of money for more buses but to fight for increased funding will only hurt the students by taking needed from another line, revenue probably academics. What is required here is a better bus schedule and I have therefore created a program with the department of Environmental will be intensified in the fall duff'to the opening of new buildings (Union and Lockwood Library). We must not forget the commuter students who will be affected most by this situation. A policy that the administration must accept is the return to campus tickets so that students who want to protest their fine will not have to go downtown to a Buffalo civil court and miss school. Dr. Lorenzetti, Assistant Vice President of Student Affairs has agreed with me to set up a committee to examine this campus Paul Glauber 1. As I understand the! Sunshine Law, 'it states that all meetings such as the College Council, etc. are to be open to students and well publicized in advance as to the time and location of such meetings. As Directcr of Student Affairs, would stive to bring the dates I and times of such meetings to the attention of the general student body. I plan to do this well in advance of the meetings in order give interested students a to rearrange chance to their schedules and plan on attending. Since the Sunshine Law is already in effect, I can see no legal problem in getting the concerned groups to comply with it. We must make them comply in spirit as well as in law. 2. I have a few new ideas about summer and fall orientation. The first change I would , like to institute concerns the Activities and Services workshop in the summer orientation program. If possible, a room could be obtained in Ellicott to set up a permanent area for the Activities and Services workshop. This would allow us to enhance the workshop by having a room with permanent displays that would be more informative and more comprehensive than the present method. In the past, the Activities and Services workshop consisted of a group of speakers using a blackboard present to their material. A change in the SA orientation handbook also seems to be in order at this time. If the handbook is expanded, it can cover many other topics that are presented along with it,. This would cut down pn the eftfount of extra flyers handed out and also give the new student a more comprehensive guide that he or she can save for future reference. When school reopens in the fall, I would like to set up information booths at both the Main Street and North campuses. These booths would be staffed by SA people who would be there to answer any questions the students might have. These would probably be open the first three days of school. The next item would be an Activities Fair. This would occur about the fifth and sixth days of school. This would be a centrally located area with representatives of all the major University organizations. This would not only aid the activities in their recruiting drives, but more importantly, it would expose the new student to the full range of activities and services available and enable him or her to obtain information about these activities held in the open. Public notice in advance must be given, and any action held in violation of this law by a judge can be found void in part or whole. The benefits that quite readily. the students will receive if used During the first week of correctly are tremendous. A school, I plan to schedule a unified student involvement must (disco, variety of events be created by the SA to attend all problem. coffeehouses, comedian, concerts meetings and exert pressure on As Director of Student Affairs and square dances) at both the administration.

The principle because of their class schedule the commuter as to what is role of Director of Student Affairs could not see me at my regular available and where to find it on is to stand up for student rights hours can now come at night. the North Campus. Election Supplement �process a process in which the students participate. — Summer and Fall orientation will have a wider concern next year if the Studeht Union moves out to the Amherst Campus. Not only will Freshman and Transfer students have to {earn the campus layout, but also will the presently enrolled U.B. students who so far have not had classes in the Academic Spine. It will be important to hand out Fall calendars which will include 2) of $16,000. That is $2,750 more than the total SA Activities Budget. This amounts to SA giving the wrestling team $10 for each spectator that attends a wrestling match. This is a gross misrepresentation of student fees\\\ Money can be trimmed so as to save funds that can be allocated for other forms of student athletics, such as the reinstatement of the track and fencing teams back to the varsity level. upcoming Lori Pasternak 1 1) With our new freedom to attend all meetings that pertain to our education, it is very important to make these meetings well publicized and easily accessible to all of us. The times of these meetings should be listed in The Spectrum and on signs throughout U.B. We as students must be to in encouraged participate decisions that involves our lives at this University. We have more influence than we take advantage of. Being well informed and organized is the key to developing a new role in the decision making activities, important dates and phone numbers to remember, and most importantly a map of the campuses. Outdoor, activities are well received and should be planned around the new Student Union to help everyone get used to the new facilities. Orientation naturally encompasses more than activities, and I think that a workshop dealing with all aspects of the University should be set up in an easily accessible area. Representatives from various branches of the University would be seated at tables, ready to answer any questions. A similar situation would be set up to introduce students to- the many clubs available to them. Students should know and take advantage of the multitude of activities and services here at U.B. Director for Student Activities What plans do you have to make the new student union on the Amherst Campus as vibrant and as popular as Norton Hall has been over 1. the years? 2. What role should athletics play at this University and in the SA budget? Ping-pong rooms, a crafts lounge and a T.V. Room. The atmosphere of the Union should be a relaxed one. The P.A. system can be used in conjunction with the campus radio station to broadcast daily music and SA news. If the new Union is made to be as appealing as possible by means of the Activities and Services it offers, then the trend of student involvement should be upward, thus making the new Union as successful, if not more successful, than the old Union. Pat Lovejoy 1. Although the new student union complex does not have as activity spaces as the many present union building has, these spaces have more potential uses. The Amherst Campus, with its modern, artistic design, brings to mind many ipnovative ideas that would make use of both the structure's small meeting rooms and its expansive cafeterias. I would hope to hold small beer parties with recorded music in the late afternoons once or twice a week. These would tal<e place in the meeting/dining room rear near Norton Hall's Rathskellar-like facility. Provided the first floor of the Capen Library is not used by the library, as is rumored, this space would be ideal for demonstrations and workshops on subjects of interest to students in general, such as relaxation or self-hypnosis, and on more topical subjects, such as juggling or quitting smoking. If this area is available, not the Tablert cafeteria, although not quite as comfortable, is a suitable substitute. The new Conference Theater should be utilized often, presenting unusual performers and acts. I would try to promote the Theater to make it a major touring stop for mimists, dancers, magicians, mind readers, poets. even sword swallowers and fire eaters. I would encourage UUAB's video committee (Act V) to use the main lounge of the complex as a showcase of their talents in the TV world. In addition to these programs, many existing ones would be continued, including coffeehouses, folk and square dances, beer blasts, and concerts. Now, more than ever, emphasis should be on small intimate gatherings encourage that interaction among students. As the University expands, students will find it increasingly difficult to maintain an identity. It is the job of student government to provide each student with social and recreational activities that will fulfill his/her needs as an individual. The great lack of large multipurpose rooms within the complex already sets the pace for this most formidable task. .. 2. Phil Dinhoffer 1. During the initial transition period back to the Amherst Campus, it is going to be the responsibility of the Director of Activities and Services to be sure of adequate activities planning. It will be necessary to publicize the benefits of the new Union, what is going on, where it is happening, etc. I will solicit a great deal of student participation in the new Union. If the students take an initial charge in the opening of the Union it can then be made be my successful. It will responsibility to be sure that there are adequate recreational facilities like a pinball lounge. Pool & Election Supplement Athletics should play a key role in this University. It is well known that a great wave of student apathy exists. Through athletics, we can generate a sense of pride within the University that will greatly boost morale. A referendum was passed by us to bring back football. What has been done about this? If we bring back football, a rise in student spectator participation, which wiM lead to a rise in student morale, is a will occur. Budget-wise great need for a reassessment of team expenditures. Each team should have a student business manager who will control all expenditures. In the past, I have witnessed a misuse of athletic funds during road trips. Fancy steak dinners are unnecessary. An astute business manager will help to save funds. Secondly, the wrestling team maintains a budget ’ 2. Athletics is a vital part of life and should always remain so. It can, and should, bring excitement and enthusiasm to the, students here. At the present time, attempts are being made by the members of the Students for the Future of Athletics (SFA) and the very capable administrative personnel in Clark Hall to bolster the image of our athletic program and to encourage more participation in it, either as a competitor or as a member of the cheering section. University organizations such as the Alumni Association and the UB Foundation should give as much aid as possible to the intercollegiate teams so that they can continue to represent UB throughout the Northeastern United States for many years. campus The intramural program is a necessary part of student recreational services. It sorely needs to be expanded, in order to accommodate the many students who wish, to participate in it each year. The funds needed to do this can only be provided by SA, in the form of an increase in that section of the annual athletic budget. As with any SA program, when the past has shown improvement and increased usage and one finds it necessary to expand, the funds required are found somewhere in the SA budget. I feel expansion is necessary and desireable and that the funds can be found. students such as all the club and student organizations as well, as some new services that I would like to see introduced. A banking service that is equipped to process telephone, electric, and gas bills, a student grievance office, where a student can come with a problem and see it justified, a student employment office and a financial aid office that is finally in our union. Instead of a bowling alley, and that terrible television-reading room, let us have a Cinema Center 1000—1500 that could seat people and can be partitioned off into three or four separate halls to hold various events at the same time, movies, theatre, speakers, or when a very popular event occurs, can be opened up to accomodate a large crowd. The Rathskellar should have music piped in (we do have our own radio station), with small round tables and moveable chairs so that coffeehouses and other nightclub events can be held at night as well as containing liquor and music to go to after attending a student promoted activity; incidentally the Rat should not be styled like a cafeteria. A comfortable lounge should be available with couches and pillows and piped-tn music for students to hang out in and relax from the pressures of the day. On the' same floor could be a coffee shop with good food (not Food grub) Service and nice atmosphere. In the same building there should be a mellow reading room 'with comfortable surroundings, music rooms for private listening, T.V. rooms and an amusement center with all electronic ,r games that should game Contain a room for backgammon, chess, cards and other board games. So the _oew union should be made for the students and everything in it should deal with the students, in a nice way. 2. Devon Weiner 1. The major reason for the popularity of Norton Union is that it ogives the students a place where they can go to on campus, during a break from classes and socialize with other students. It is a place to meet and hang out with your friends, as well as an office building that houses, all student essence, activities. as In convenient as the union is, I feel we, the students, are being cheated. Do we really need a bowling alley in our union? The union should be The Center of Student Activities. When the union on the Amherst campus is complete and the eventual shift to that campus takes place, the union should not be built like to Norton, according 1900 standards; instead it should be for the student of the pre- and post-2000's. I would like to see the union be the place where the students can get together, enjoy themselves and get involved with the services it provides for them,. The new, union for our futuristic campus should offer a warm, comfortable relaxed atmosphere. It should contain all offices that pertain to the Athletics play a large role at this university and that should continue. However there are programs that should be enlarged to fully accomodate all the students at our university. The present program Tor intramural sports is in desperate need of* more money. This program should be increased, and would be my first concern. As far as varsity sports go, attendance at our varsity team events is low and apathy is high, this must change if we are to introduce football into our varsity sports program. If football never comes back to Buffalo then- we should let that money be allocated toward developing more intramural programs and tlub sports and to improve the existing ones. The varsity fencing team and the wrestling teams should be a thing of the past, and be replaced with a men's track and field team. If the money must come from the S.A. budget for athletics, then all students must be treated fairly, and noi allow one program to absorb money that it does not deserve, due to the percent of students that are involved with the program. Any allocation of money that improve the athfetic would program here would be welcomed with open arms. New facilities are needed for the Amherst Campus and should accomodate the growing interest and participation with athletics at this University. Monday, 28 February 1977 . The Spectrum .

There's little or no personal contact between professors and students, therefore there's little or no interaction in University the classes. This employs some excellent professors but they are limited by classroom sizes dnd facilities offered. Perhaps the lack of interaction is the fault of the professors and the students.

I will contact SUNY Binghamton, which has a four-course load and is attempting to justify their system, rather than running scared. As director of I Academic Affairs would mobilize and coordinate all involved parties (students, faculty, etc.) to take a united stand on all issues which affect our education. 1. I am in favor of the four-course load because it was instituted for the benefit of the students in this University and I feel that the Administration should evaluate its decision over the possible incoming change. The faculty Senate's response to the Dearing Memorandum was to extend classes to 65 minutes on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and to 100 minutes on Tuesday, Thursday in the coming years. The only way that the classes would be allowed to come back to the original schedule that we have now is if the classes were justified. I feel that this decision is inadequate it limits the amount of classes a student might take per semester due to probable conflict of time between classes. This decision also limits the amount of courses this University schedules per day. I will try to make a decision that I feel that the majority of students on this campus are in favor of and in order to know what they want, I'll try to get them more involved in the Academic task force of this University. 2. Ji feel that the undergraduate education in this University is insufficient due to the lack of professors and overcrowded classrooms. This University is set up on a formal-basis; we are only known to the professors as Page twelve . libraries continue to remain out of materials or are understocked, with library hours constantly being cut back.

The colleges in this University were formed in order to provide students with an academic environment in their selected professions.

I think the biggest task we face presently is abolishing the reality of SASU and the assembly as elitist groups. This can be accomplished the SASU by delegates becoming more active within their own student populations. Another idea is to have on the back of every SASU school student's I.D. card a statement indicating he is a member of SASU and entitled to the benefits of block booking and power. We need innovation on a mass communicative scale in order to increase student input so that SASU can be !a collectively effective political body. Most importantly we must keep in mind how necessary it is for SASU delegates to be responsive to the immediate needs of their campuses and surrounding communities. Not only is this purchase imperative for the goals realized •by minority students and women, but also for the success of the surrounding economic community, which is relative to the quality of the school, particularly here at the University of Buffalo.

The very fact that many students don't even know what SASU stands for is a good indication that the past SASU representatives haven't been doing a good job. This doesn't have to be! SASU delegates should concentrate on publicizing SASU services such as "Purchase Power" which provides discounts on many items that a SASU might buy. student delegates should expand voter registration into a year-round service in order that students will be able to exert more pressure on the state legislature to comply with students' wishes and needs. Another way of bringing SASU to the students is by bringing concerts to this campus by getting discounts through the SASU book-blocking service. The SASU should be newspaper Update circulated on campus in order to inform students of the many important issues which directly affect them. There are certain crucial issues affecting students which SASU must deal with if they are to be considered a worthwhile organization. Financial aid has been cut. With the present inflation that we are all experiencing, students cannot afford any cuts in financial aid. SASU must lobby for increased financial aid to individual students, as well as increased funding to SUNY/B so that construction may be completed on the North Campus. SASU must also protect the four credit per course system in our school. A change in our present credit undoubtedly system would interfere with many students' graduation, which no student can afford. SASU must also work to set guidelines restricting the administration's interference with our mandatory student fees. This is our money, which should be spent as we wish. Among other things, SASU should work to have classes cancelled on important Jewish holidays; to have a law passed which doesn't require students to pay sales tax on textbooks; to have the state provide financial aid based on a cost-of-living escalator; to get a student vote on both the College Council and SUNY Board of Trustees. must SASU become an organization of action, dedicated to helping fight students effectively against anything which might threaten our education, such as financial aid cuts. If SASU can be effective in this fight, then it will have realized its goals for success. I am confident that I can be an important factor in bringing SASU and the students such a success. Joyce Levin The College Council has a very clear and precise meaning at this University. A host of prominent people in the Buffalo community, the president of the University and a non-voting student member make up the council. The council makes to recommendations the University President about policies concerning the University. The Council is an important liasion between the University and the Community. An important job of the Council is to recommend potential candidates to the SUNY Board of Trustees for the job of President of this University.’ The College Council has a great potential for being the well informed "grandparent" of the University, but as I see it they the actively contribute in functioning of the University. Most of the people on the Council actively contribute to the University Foundation. One action I would like to see is a redistribution of these monies to insure that they are being used to their greatest potential For the students' voice to be felt as well as heard, there must be a mutual respect between the Council and the student member. Effectiveness is the key for which the student member should strive. The student member should receive complete minutes for meetings of all the student governments so she can be up to date on problems that might arise. The members of the council should hold monthly meetings with all student government heads. I would insure that the Sunshine laws are complied with adequate make sure and announcement is given to the date, time and place of the meetings. The development of a personal, working relationship with individual members of the Council is a major goal, so contact can be attained for tangential problems. Glenn MacMillian The role of the College Council in this University is a multifaceted. It would be impossible in the space provided to, list all the facets, so I will only consider those which are the most important. First, the College Council is a committee that does take an active part in the affairs of this University. One of its primary functions is the review and interpretation of University policy many areas within the in University, including academic affairs, student affairs and services, as well as administrative decisions. The College Council also has a part in implementing decisions made in Albany by the state government as well as the Board of Trustees. The Council is also responsible for reviewing the budget. Recommendations made by the Council in any of these areas are carefully considered by the University administration and the Board of Trustees. The Council is also one of the primary liaisons between the University and the community, although at this time there seems to be little communication taking place. This communications breakdown, in my opinion, is one reason for the University losing its high priority status in the community. It is essential that the walls that have been built up between U.B. and surrounding communities be knocked down so that the University can once again become an integral part of the community of Buffalo. Since many Council' members are prominent in the Buffalo area, the Council has tfie potential to do this. The Student Representative's role on the Council is to see that the opinions and needs of the Monday, 28 February 1977 The Spectrum . Page thirteen �students at this University are heard as well as acted upon by the Council. It's harder than it sounds. The student representative's position on the Council is a non-voting one, making it easy for the students' voice to be hard, but hard for it to be felt. To ensure that the students' voice is felt, the student representative must tdo several starting with the things, rapport establishment of a the- student between representative and the Council. This can be achieved provided that the student representative shows a willingness to work with the council, and can represent the rationally, students' views realistically and efficiently. To be successful in that endeavor, the student representative must be willing to go out to the students and see how they feel on the issues. When I say the students, I mean the entire student body, undergraduate and graduate. The function of the student representative and the Councii is, as I see it, to ensure that our education is modern, complete and uncompromised. To reach this goal, we will all have to work together, and the College Council is the perfect place to start. one to believe that they* 25,000 students is, I contend, a delusion. Rather, the individual has the responsibility to serve the trust implicit in being elected. While the Sunshine Law somewhat reduces the burden of being sole student witness to the activities of the Counofl, my position is that the student member act as liaison between the all student Council and one way, can this governments. In person, begin to represent other students. At this juncture, it is appropriate to list the stated responsibilities of the student member: a. represent the students of SUNVAB to the College Council; b. a non-voting member of the Council and the executive committee of Council; c. full represent make regulations concerning student conduct, student housing and safety, and campus facilities; recommend d. review and SUNVAB budget requests; e. citizens' appoint advisory committees; f. name buildings and g. report annually to the Board of Trustees; h. perform any other duties requested by the Board of Trustees; i. make and establish regulations necessary to carry out the above duties. Certainly, such a Council is one that by its charge, contributes actively to the "goings-on" of the University. Whether the duties are performed in a responsible fashion is dependent on the membership. Responding to the second part: Phyllis "as a student, non-voting member To the first part of the of the Council, how would you question: the duties of the College ensure that the students' voice is Council are defined as: a. felt, as well as heard?" requires an interpretation. in recommend candidates for exercise President of SUNYAB; b. review Therefore 1 will state my position major University, plans regarding the responsibility of the all faculty, students, student member and trust the regarding admissions, academics, etc.; c. answer will be evident.

Being "felt and heard" would be a mutual obligation. Cindy Whiting No, it is not a “quiet, well informed grandparent" of the University although that may be the impression in the minds of many people. As you know, until General S.A.

The effect of this was to make the Council, which is the highest policy making body of the University, a "quiet grandparent." functioned in The Council isolation and in "smoke complete filled back rooms," so to speak. Now it's different. Not only will we be "felt" but we will be "heard." Because, if elected, I will have the right to speak freely.

Scholars willing to take a gamble on the University of Nevada at Las Vegas can expect to pay an extra $1200 annually unless they can prove that they are bona fide residents of the state, with the intent of making Nevada their “true, fixed, and permanent home and place of habitation.” However, they are warned that “temporary absences for more than one day must be explained” and that residency will not be granted if the applicant has been out of the state more than 10 days in any one year. Such fidelity would require a great love on the part of the prospective resident either for wager-making or for the “panorama of rugged eroded mountains, redrock and landscapes, sandstone forgotten ghost towns” that adorn the surrounding area, according to the university catalogue. Money altogether is not necessary to attend universities outside one’s state, though. In most cases, if the prospective transfer student is willing to maintain a’ residence in the state where he wishes to attend college, pay taxes there,.vote there, and otherwise bind himself to its bureaucratic web, he can usually be reclassified as a resident after 12 consecutive months within That evidence readily available seems to contradict the average oil company’s public disgust at high Arab oil prices. Many consumer critics declare that high cost foreign oil provides high oil company profits. They argue that given a set markup over costs for every gallon of gasoline delivered to the pumps, higher crude prices must lead to higher industry profits, in absolute terms. Also, the pressure of high prices for oil found outside the oil U.S. sends American exploration dollars abroad, even as the government attempts to develop domestic production. The result is on the pressure . . . government to raise the ceiling of, or deregulate entirely, the prices for U.S. crude. The majority of U.S. oil companies holdings still lie in domestic reserves, and it is a gargantuan increase in the price of the reserves that Ralph Nader and others say big oil is realty after. Blackmailing the government with a contrived crisis, they say, is the most effective lever to accomplish that goal. Other critics assert that even the government doesn’t care that much, that forces within it, those especially representing multinational-oil, in fact favor domestic oil price hikes and therefore approve of foreign oil price raises that will help bring them about. Support for this view was found in revelations by Jack Anderson last year concerning developments in U.S. foreign policy in the .Middle East. Saudi the sole virtually Arabia. proponent of price stabilization OPEC, was reportedly with the U.S.’s apparently ambiguous role in the East. to According Middle Anderson, the Saudi government secretly complained to President Ford that his Administration’s actiops seemed to encourage those OPEC members who wished to raise prices most, notablyi Iran. The Saudis noted that' Iran continues to receive the greatest amount of U.S. arms, and is in good diplomatic favor with the United States. The Saudis felt further that they had been snubbed whenever repeatedly asking the U.S. to put pressure on Iran to moderate its private demands. With conflicting assertions, based on little or clouded information, it is unclear what is -really going on or what motivates what is happening. At the very least, what can be confirmed does not bode well for the stability of the average American’s economic future. within disillusioned Jazz piano performance The Office of Cultural Affairs will present noted Jazz Pianist Mary Lou Williams in a performance and discussion Monday, February 28 at 8 p.m. in the Katherine Cornell Theatre.

Dimmick cautioned that the Athletic Department would have to be certain to ask for enough funds to operate each of the four years the plan would be in effect. “Four years from now, the same budget that we have now would be a limitation," Dimmick said. The new proposal also does not allow for the addition of any sports, or for yearly fluctuations in expenses. For example, many teams have a lot of road games one year and a lot of home games the next year. Obviously, years with many road games would require larger budgets than other years. Despite these minor objections to the plan, the general feeling around Clark Hall is that the proposal, if passed, would be one of the best thhig&Jo happen to the Athletic Department in quite some time Since the referendum is binding if passed.

Monday, 28 February 1977 • Ill'll �t Buffalo forfeits six Hockey Association representative playoff berth still possible by Larry Amoros Special to The Spectrum The storybook season of the hockey Bulls might have come to an end last Saturday at the Tonawanda Sports Center, when Western Michigan swept the two game series, 5-1 and 4-3. But technically, the pair of defeats has little to do with the telling of the tale whose epilogue has yet to be sketched. The final chapter of the drama cannot be written until later this week when the Bulls find the Eastern out from Collegiate Athletic Conference (ECAC) Tournament selection committee if they have been given a berth in the Division II playoffs. There are many factors which will affect the Bulls’ chances. One of the most influencing is a recent discovery that freshman left wing Dave Golda had played for the Bulls while ineligible, forcing Buffalo to forfeit all six games that he played in. Unfortunately, those six games were all Division 11 contests which the Bulls won, altering their final record from 11-4 to 5-10. ECAC rules state that any junior college transfer must have 24 credit hours and a minimum 2.0 average in order to be eligible to play varsity sports. If these requirements are not met, then thi student must sit out one full year before he becomes eligible to r~ play. When Golda made the varsity squad last October, Co-ordinator of Men’s Intercollegiate Athletics Ed Muto made the standard eligibility check for varsity athletes. According to the Office of Admissions and Records, Golda had first registered at the University of Buffalo in January, 1976, but his transcript had not yet arrived from Erie Community College. Not knowing whether Golda’s academic work-load fulfilled the ECAC requirement or not, Muto declared Golda ineligible until January, 1977, one full year from his initial registration at Buffalo. In February, Union College officials requested an investigation by the ECAC Inquiry Committee into the eligibility of Dave Golda. Not surprisingly, Union had earlier in the year been handed their first Division 11 loss ever at the hands of Buffalo. The investigation then found errors of omission in the Admissions and Records file, which made Golda ineligible until September, 1977. Golda had in fact, registered at Buffalo in January, 1976, but he had stayed here only one week before going back to Erie Community College. Thus, Golda had to sit out one full year from the time he officially came to Buffalo, this past September. Additionally, it against the swift skating Division I Broncos.

The skaters closed out the complete if the team makes the season in style, playing stoically playoffs. (Stephen) Hardy that the forfeits was later learned that while Golda had transferred 25 credits, he only had a 1.8 quality point average. Muto immediately made an appeal to the Inquiry Committee on the basis that Golda’s ineligibility was “an error of omission, not a sin of intent.” Muto was careful to point out that Golda was a fourth litie player who played only in the event of an, injury to another member of the team. This past Friday the Committee ruled against Buffalo, causing the Bulls to forfeit six games (victories over Union, R.I.T., New England, Hamilton, and two wins over Oswego). Playoffs still possible The complex tale does not, however, end here. For there is yet another ECAC Committee to deal with, the Tournament Committee, who decide which teams qualify for the playoffs. When the news of the ineligibility situation reached this Committee, Chairman J. Thomas Lawler of Merrimac College immediately contacted Muto. Lawler said that the Committee would try to judge the Bulls on merit of their performance, and leave the eligibility ruling aside. According to Buffalo coach Ed Wright, this attitude is a step in the right direction for the Bulls. “Lawler told the Eastern Collegiate Stu dio Arena Theater The Incomparable —r - Buff State, Bulls vie for second in Big Four by Paige Miller EMLYN WILLIAMS diaries Dickens March 1, 2, 3, 6, 8, 10 Student discount $2.00 available only at Norton Ticket Office Studio Arena Theater, 681 Main St. Ticket subsidized by S.A.

When the two teams clash tomorrow night at Clark Hall (8:15 p.m.) second place in the Big Four Conference is at stake, as well as the pride of the two teams. Niagara has already clinched first place in the Big Four, with a conference record of 3-0, and Canisius is last at 0-3. Then, there is the jinx factor. The Bulls have only beaten State once in the past ten years, and based on their recent performances, they will be facing a rough task indeed. And of course, both teams would like to beat their crosstown rival. Buffalo State has been led by their 6-8 center Greg Miller. Last year, he and Bulls center Sam Pellom had quite a duel; for a while they turned the game into a two-man show. Miller has been averaging 11.8 points per game, compared to Pellom’s 13.1, but Miller has the edge in rebounds, 14.0 to 10.6 Both teams’ leading scorer is a guard. John Dougherty has been averaging 12.2 points for Buffalo State, while junior Ed Johnson has scored 16 points per game for the Bulls. Lately, guard Bucky Strong, a freshman from Rochester, has been playing well for State. Strong is probably the best outside shooter on either team, and has been hitting twenty-five footers consistently during his recent hot streak. Buffalo’s other starting guard will probably be senior George Cooper, who has had a- very erratic season, and is currently averaging 12.3 points per game. Buffalo State forwards Jerome Glover and Oleh Czmola are old “friends” of the Bulls. Czmola pulled down twenty rebounds while leading the Bengals to victory in the teams’ meeting last year. Glover combines an outside shot with strong work under the boards, and should give Buffalo’s forwards, Lloyd DeVaux and Sam Robinson all they can handle. DeVaux has come on strong towards the end of the season. He is a good outside shooter, while Robinson provides the Bulls with height and strong rebounding. Monday, 28 Feburary 1977 .

This weekend will be the most critical due to the rising temperatures but there is not reason to panic. There will be a 24 to 36 hour advance forecast of flooding and University personnel are in close contact with the Town of Amherst Corps of Engineers.” According to Vice President for Facilities Planning John Telfer, the University is better off than areas in the Town of Amherst. “This is because the campus was built at a height adequate for the worst possible flood expected in a 100 year span,” Telfer said. The areas about which he is most worried are the parking lots around Ellicott, Core Road underneath Ellicott and the loading dock at Governors Residence Halls.

Allen and' Pat Feldballe, two disc jockies at WBUF, appeared on a WBFO Public Radio talk show hosted by John Hunt, to underline the importance of public opposition to the proposed sale. The letters should stress that because BUF is locally owned, it tries to serve the needs and expectations of those who live in Buffalo and its suburbs, and that if it sold to an out-of-town chain, the station will cease to function as such therefore the sale will have an adverse effect on the local community. — Our prewashed denim jeans are No more live music Until now, public attention was focused on the proposed change of BUF’s musical format from “progressive rock” to “contemporary pop,” with an increase in commerical time. It was argued that the addition of another AM format radio station was not needed in Buffalo, while a “progressive” station would be sorely missed. “The music is the last thing as far as the transfer of the license is concerned,” said Feldballe. “The IRS is forcing the sale of BUF. A1 Worthheimer (the present owner) must sell or pay huge inheritance taxes.” “Letters concerning music will be discarded by the FCC,” added Allen. He continued that almost all AM and FM commercial radio stations in Buffalo are currently owned by out-of-town chains. Plans by Robert Liggett, owner of the chain of five radio stations called TriMedia that has applied for the license, include the removal of the Town Crier talk show, hosted by Allen, shorter and more nationally oriented news, and the banning of live music from local clubs on the air. A doctor from Cheektowaga has offered to buy BUF but reportedly cannot get the same financial terms from the FCC as can Liggett. TriMedia must put down $50,000 and pay the rest of the $700,000 cost by long term assignment debts. The FCC has not yet accepted Ligget’s application, but if and when it does, the sale becomes final 30 days hence. Allen commented that present announcers can form a corporation and solicit stock to the public, but only after the present application is tabled by the FCC and a subsequent hearing is held. He explained that neither he nor Feldballe nor any BUF announcer could mention the matter on their respective shows because “our owner does not want the public aware. He wants to sell the station and leave quietly,” he said Concerned listeners can write to: Federal Communications Commission Room 709, Transfer Branch 1919 M Street, Northwest Washington, D.C. 20554 , Ask your friends what they paid.

I am a man of justice, rather than a man of revenge.” Born 68 years ago in the province of Galacia, _Wiesenthal was incarcerated in five different Nazi concentration camps. On May 5, 1945 when the American Allied Forces liberated him, he weighed a mere 90 pounds, but as he said, “1 survived.” Wiesenthal summed up the feelings of many of the death camp survivors, “We lost all beliefs in humanity. We needed for our lives not only food, clothing and houses, but Justice as well.” Hortor stories the war, after Shortly Wiesenthal worked for the American Office of War Criminals and also becamse the president of the Jewish Survivors Organization. After hearing many horrifying stories from concentration camp survivors, Wiesenthal comprised a list of crimes committed by the Nazis and established the famous Documentation Center. In the for all name of “justice humanity,” Wiesenthal, through his network of operations, set out to locate all the surviving Nazi war criminals. He felt this was his obligation as a Jew, adding that was not government-backing necessary.

Losing the court battle could make it particularly difficult for the Coop to demonstrate its right to exist and to be placed at the Amherst Campus. An administration source said, however, that even if the Coop loses its court battle, there is the possibility of appeal by various student bodies. After that he suggested that there are other legal steps which could be taken. “It seems to me this thing could be fought for years.” Though holding a positive attitude toward the Coop, Browsing Library, the Music.

As a result, departments and services are being reshuffled and scattered throughout the new campus, which, sources say, will decentralize them and hurt int ra-departmental communication. Gruber has indicated that the new campus’ expansive design architecturally known as a “scatter plan” will act to decentralize student activities. “This is going to be dysfunctional as well as inconvenient,” he said. ‘3 ust because it read well doesn’t mean it will work.” - — BEER AND SODA ON THE BUS *****$10.00 Cancellation fee NON-FEE PAYERS. _ * LEAVES - APRIL 1 - RETURNS APRIL SALE TIMES-M-W-F-11 am -5 pm Tu.

Sponsored by The Black Student Union �AMA’s feelings toward cigarettes are ‘peculiar’ Editor's note: This is the second in a series of articles about the American Medical Association. This article details the relationship between the AMA and the tobacco industry during the 1960’s when research was conducted about the dangers of smoking. by Jay Rosen Spectrum Staff Writer In March of 1963, the American Medical Association (AMA) announced it was suspending its research into the health hazards of smoking in view of the sweeping study underway by the United States Surgeon General. In December of the same year, the AMA reversed itself and decided to go ahead with its own study after all.. Observers noted- that the Surgeon General’s report was expected to harshly criticize smoking as a health hazard. In January of 1964, the Surgeon General’s study was released. After 14 months of exhaustive research, a carefully screened panel of outstanding scientists and physicians concluded that cigarette smoking was a major cause of lung cancer and “the most important cause” of chronic bronchitis and emphysema. While health officials and the scientific and medical communities hailed the report as an important breakthrough, two groups said nothing. The tobacco industry, which had sold 500 billion cigarettes the year before, was momentarily silent. So was the AMA. Washington columnist Drew Pearson termed the AMA’s attitude toward cigarettes “peculiar.” “Some senators.” he warned; “are beginning to wonder if the doctors are for health or against it.” The wondering soon led to indignation. the tobacco industry In February, announced it was awarding $10 million to the AMA’s research foundation to undertake “further investigation” into smoking and health. Defends tobacco industry Later that month the Federal Trade Commission, which had proposed that mandatory warnings be required on all cigarette packs and advertising, received a letter protesting such action. The letter was from the AMA’s Board of Trustees. The letter read: “More than 90 million persons in the United States use tobacco in some form and of these, 72 million use cigarettes.. . The economic lives of tobacco growers, processors and merchants are entwined in the industry, and state, local and the federal government are the recipients of and dependent upon many millions of dollars' of tax revenue [gepejrated by cigarette sales]. Pearson theorized, “The AMA’s letter to the Federal Trade Commission sounded almost as if it had been written by tobacco men.” In March of 1964 the AMA confirmed publicly what many observers had suspected privately, by coming to the tobacco industry’s defense. At hearings conducted by the FTC about the proposed warning labels, the AMA testified that, “Cautionary labeling cannot be anticipated to serve the public interest.” It further asserted the FTC had no right to initiate such action anyway, that it was the sole responsibility of Congress. Former Senator Maurine Newberger said that month she was “growing somewhat apprehensive about the concern the AMA has for the economic well being of the tobacco industry rather than the physical well-being of smokers.” ‘Unholy alliance’ Others were more Speakers Bureau termed mo ‘ After two years of widespread criticism, Student Association Speakers Bureau appears to have struck a middle ground in its programing. Speakers Bureau chairperson Janet Evans explained, “Two years ago (former Chairperson) Stan Morrow was into numbers, which isn’t bad. He was hired because getting large crowds was his main concern.” But Evans feels he created a backlash against “popular” programing, which was typified by speakers Lois Lane and Moe Howard. As for last year, Evans explained that Robby Cohen “wanted to go the other, way. He wanted to lead people, to educate them, perhaps to the point of being too esoteric.” In an effort to avoid the pitfalls of both philosophies, Evans Although conducted a survey concerning students’ she expected commercial entertainment-type speakers to be ranked fourth or fifth, they were instead the second most popular category, with speakers about the future being first. The schedule for the Spring includes a Right to Life vs. Abortion debate (March 2), a presentation of “Guerrilla Tactics in the Job 16), Julian Bond (April 25), historian Paul Market” (March Desmondedas using history to predict the future, and a forum on Disarmament. Political columnist Jack Anderson has not .yet been rescheduled. Asked why there has not been more programs about the future, Evans responded, “no money.” She had planned on doing a series on this topic at the end of the Spring, but discovered funds were not available. She pointed to poor records kept in the SA Treasurer’s Office, which in turn attributed the problem to a high turnover of Treasurers this year. However, there are some funds still left. In approving the Bureau’s budget last Spring, the Financial Assembly mandated that $3,000 be spent on minority programing. Of this, approximately $1500 is left but only available for minority programs. When asked how a rule requiring her to clear any speaker costing S2,000 or more through the Student Senate has affected the program, she replied, “Not all that much. We’ve only had speakers projected to and they William Shatner and Jack Anderson cost that muth actually turned out to be less.” She was quick to point out that any speaker appearing in Clark Hall would run into that kind of money. “Both attendance figures and any surveys that have been done show that there are a lot of students who want big name speakers. Clark Hall is the only plage where such a program is economically and physically possible. So I’m urging my successor to plan more events there than 1 did.” She also felt the limit for approval be raised, or eliminated - - direct, charging collusion between the two groups. Those charges received a dose of validity when the AMA issued a pamphlet entitled: “Smoking Facts You Should Know,” in May of 1964. This was a full five months after the Surgeon General’s report. The pamphlet stated that smoking was a threat to life because “numerous depths occur each year from burns and suffocation due to falling asleep while smoking.” The issue of cancer was skillfully sidetracked. Doctors and health groups ridiculed the pamphlet, which was later revised. Meanwhile, in a seemingly unrelated development, the House Ways and Means Committee shelved a Medicare bill which the AMA bitterly opposed. A key “no” vote was obtained from Representative Watts of Kentucky, whose district relied — heavily on the tobacco crop. Watts’ switch from “yes” to “no” put supporters of the bill in the minority. Rather than suffer an embarrassing defeat, the issue was tabled until the next year. Though a direct connection between the AMA’s support of the tobacco industry and the crucial vote was never established, many congressmen suspected an “unholy alliance” between the two. The FTC warnings eventually went on cigarette packs anyway. However, the AMA helped keep the cautions off cigarette advertising for several years. This was acceptable to the tobacco companies because it kept the warnings away from potential new smokers. (Next: The AMA and the drug industry.) The S.A.

Special Features Sports WSC began researching the events surrounding the BSU-SA conflict when controversy emerged around these issues in The Spectrum. We are writing a letter supporting BSU since it is clear that there are many connections between attacks on BSU and their position within the University hierarchy. Parallels can be drawn between this situation and the experience of other third world and women’s units which have been fighting against their historic discrimination within the American educational system. It was also clear to us that The Spectrum had taken the position of the SA by covering up a history of harassments and budget cuts of BSU. In brief, starting last March, during negotiations for the new fiscal budget, a series of tactics were used by the SA to both limit communication and hinder negotiations. The budget ‘talks’ were adjourned last spring, taken off campus, and the budget set during the summer when students weren’t around. While BSU’s budget,didn’t reflect significant cuts beyond the figures promised the previous semester, it was soon revealed that a good chunk of their money was acquired by cutting the salary of the SA Minority Affairs Coordinator, Women as well as third world students are commonly treated by the administration in this way money isn’t allocated to meet the growing needs of these groups but rather it is shifted back and forth and divided among us. This incident is part of the struggle of BSU to maintain the control and integrity of their budget, a struggle which culminated in the first fight last semester.

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief. irresponsible bureaucrats. However, we also see the administration as a responsible party. By not taking a strong impartial public stand (it was a fist fight between two men) the issues became confused and the facts obscured both on campus and in the Buffalo Community. Therefore, this incident was used to perpetuate racist ideas about 3rd world peoples and feed into white students’ fears. The administration’s position is further revealed by the new dictum from the President and Vice President of Student Affairs which says: Any member of any student club who intimidates any member of the SA will have their budget frozen. This further aggravates the situation by enforcing the idea that the SA has to be protected from the student clubs it is suppose to serve. Meanwhile, the administration is controlling the purse strings. Our attention has too long been focused on individual personalities within the SA rather than on the issues behind the events which led to the expulsion/suspension of three students. We must cut through the webs of misinformation and lack of history. So, in an effort to resolve this issue and unite against the inevitable attacks on education and services this Spring, we are demanding: 1. The immediate reinstatement of John Lott, George Thomas & Rob Tribble; 2. that testimony concerning the hearing be made public in order for the issue to be cleared up expediently; 3. that the basis behind the how’s and why’s of the BSU audit be made public; 4. that minority groups have the power to control how their budgets get spent and distributed. Staff ~ Women's Studies College offee To the Editor. The Spectrum is served the College Press Service, Field Newspaper syndicate, Los Angeles Times Syndicate, and New Republic Feature representation, which has pushed students to form opinions on half the information. Secondly, the SA must start acting as responsible students rather than Monday’s article concerning the S.A. Senate meeting of February 17 noted that I objected to restrictions on club endorsements of candidates, on the grounds that this would constitute an abridgement of a club’s First Amendment Rights. The article neglected to mention, however, that as clubs are both recognized and funded by student mandatory fees, such endorsements would, in effect, constitute use of fees for political purposes. This was pointed out to the Senate by one of its members. I believe that in this case the abridgement is justified. The individual club members must, of course, be free to speak as they wish concerning the election. Janet Evans Page six The Spectrum . . Friday, 25 February 1977 �Concert at State Bromberg serious about his playing David Bromberg's two concerts Buffalo State College last weekend proved his importance as a proponent of contemporary and traditional sytles of American guitar. Without a doubt, guitar playing is a serious subject for Bromberg. Mention a guitar in conversation with David and you'll notice the tone of the communication raise 20 decibels. Just ask him what masters he has been influenced by he'll start John with "any Mississippi Hurt records; Big Bill Broonzy; Lonnie Johnson; Blind Blake, especially; B.B. King, incredible; Charlie Christian; Kjango Rhinehart; Doc Watson; Clarence White; Eric Clapton is a beautiful guitar player, there's a blue grass player named Tony Rice that's great; I've always enjoyed George Benson; Wes Montgomery; Arland Roth is really outasite; Ricky Clark for the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band is a guitar player that's completely outasite, beyond belief." Then he'll conclude that "the list is very long," but you bet you tukus that if he had all the time, he would go naming on forever revered at — guitarists. clearly those names All indicate that DB does a lot of record listening. As a matter of point, he admits that records are one of the very best places to obtain the basic principles. "I think copying is a good way to learn, actually. I was never able to copy exactly, but just the attempt of copying developed the skills that made me able to play better. It trained me. If you try and copy, it's a technical exercise, You must realize it's an exercise and not self-expression; then you can really build up your chops. In every art it's the traditional way of building chops." To build on a point, one of Bromberg's favorite magazines is Guitar Player, which he describes as "a superb magazine. I'm just amazed at how good it is. If somebody told me, before it came out, that there was a magazine like that, I wouldn't have believed it. It has really good stuff, for everybody." Aside from the informative Guitar Player, Bromberg has never really had any lessons on guitar. Without formal training, it's a great wonder what technique David used to achieve such comprehension. "Icouldn't really function without lessons," he explains, "I mostly taught myself if you really want to learn, you'll just learn. The important thing is to put in the hours, to Don't worry about practice. doing it wrong or you're whether it. right, just do Just anyway that can get it done, do it. Practice, train your ear as much as you possible." He advises. "Some of the innovations have been discovered trying to do something and doing it wrong and coming up with something completely different and wonderful. The thing is if you put in the time and if you have some talent, you're gonna come up with something great even if you're in a vacuum. "The key is time. I have a record player that playes at half speed, 16, and I'd take the fast passages and slow them down. Before I'd do that I'd listen to them so I could sing them. That helps, if you can relate your playing to what you can sing in your mind, I usually begin#vis rap by quoting a Loundon Wainright song, ("4 is a lucky number, but then again so is 5.''] "Everytime I sit you down, to teach you thus or so, for safety's sake remember, I don't really know.'' The point is that different are things constructed for different people. Some people have a lot of trouble in their lives and pull it together by Scientology; some pull it together by meditation, some pull it together with the aid of the Guru Maharaji; for some it\. Catholicism. You know any of these things can work for you and a billion other individuals. One size fits all. All I can say is what works for me and when I'm asked I do. But always preface it that way what might work for me might not work for you." Along the Yellow Brick Road, Mr. B. has mastered an eclectic repetoire for guitar featuring ancient ballads, bluegrass, blues and even a few Irish jigs and reels. But you didn't have to be a member of any elite bunch of flat picking fingerpicking and again the enthusiasts to deduce major vantage how much fun you were having at Bromberg's two performances last Friday.

The hauntingly beautiful "Yankee's Drunk." — — Revenge," transformed the seven members from a mere country/blues/bluegrass band into orchestra, a virtual folk showcasing a prime mixture of tamborines, gourds, flutes, piccalps, "Great Big Idol with the Golden Head," climaxed with a strong and sensual "Kansas City" After a standing ovation for a ("My papa was no jocky, but he superb rendition of Cab taught me how to ride, you gotta Calloway's "I'm a Viper," DB work down slow in the middle, introduced his newest and most and rock on side by side.") and ensemble, cohesive which satisified with two special yet incorporates George Kindler on "Will Not showstoppers, standard fiddles; the silver-haired Curt "Sharon."

Back to the roots Their music could best be described, if classification is necessary, as being stylized in the elusive "progressive" mode. Rodan has gone back to their roots. The influences of the groups they have emulated throughout their past bar phase, (King Crimson, Gentle Giant, Genesis and Chick Corea,) can be felt in their songs, and although bits and pieces will inevitably be compared directly with these groups, it is important to stress that on the whole, their songs are well-worked-out, STRICTLY ORIGINAL pieces that'are on a level that indicated big things for this group soom. They closed their thirty-five minute set with a song that invited the audience to witness just how versatile they are. Entitled "Other Ways," it is a two-part autobiographical epic that is definitely the most powerful example of the group's new material, one which gave an excellent climactic finish to their performance. With Ludwig on twelve-string and singer Tim Reinhardt on Bass, lead guitarist Bruce Brucatto and keyboardist Rick McGirr were allowed to take off, McGirr exploring intricate jazz runs while Brucatto alternated between his interjections of Robert Fripp-like mannersims and a high-speed McLaughlinesque solo.

The crowd was not left in the dark all evening as, intermingled among the new songs were old favorites such as "Freehane," "Just The Same" and the extended concert version of "On Reflection." Their rendition of this was beautiful, with Minnear on cello, Ray Shulman on violin, Gary Green on recorder, and Weathers on Vibraphone, It would be safe to say that the versatility of these musicians goes unrivaled in the rock world today. They performed everything from five-man recorder to five-man guitar to five-man percussion arrangements and back again. For their encore they performed their medley from the "Octupus" album, identical to the format they used on the live album just as they did for "On Reflection." Needless to say, Gentle Giant captivated the Buffalo audience yet another time, exhibiting their mastery in three styles of music: classical, jazz and rock. But more importantly, the promising new material has many Giant fans anxiously awaiting May's release. Friday, 25 February 1977 The Spectrum Page nine . . �Tapies'art uses Artie Traum drifts into town ambiguity to alter UUAB Coffeehouse sense ofreality Neither snov nor ice nor gloom of winter can keep Artie Traum away from Buffalo, it seems; after being snowed out in January, he's back to play the UUAB Coffeehouse tonight and tomorrow night, at The art of Antoni Tapies is filled with ambiguities. He combines in his abstract paintings and sculptures various elements of architecture, landscape, man's language, and furnishings to produce an art which strives to reinterpret ordinary definitions and uses of these elements at the same time that it reinforces them. The viewer is at times invited to become a part of the work, to experience it from within, while at other times he is reminded of his apartness, his existence outside of the work which forces him to experience it from a distance. While walking among Tapies' exhibit: 'Thirty-Three Years of His Work," on display at the Albright-Knox Museum until March 6, these ambiguities become disturbing. They haunt the viewer, moving him from one sense of reality to another. ’ These ambiguities, however, are by no means circumstantial. Such is Tapies' talent for working with them that they give his art the ability to contradict itself both within each piece and in comparing one piece to another. 8:30 in Norton Union's First Floor Cafeteria. Also appearing is Buffalo's Bill Maraschiello. , The Traum legend goes back to the mythical days of the early New York folk scene. Even before Dylan's arrival, Artie and his brother Happy had both a following and a reputation; Artie especially was most people's choice as the best songwriter and lead guitarist around (beating out the likes of John Sebastian, Danny Kalb, and Jesse Colin Young), and was the odds-on favorite to sweep the big time. Somehow, though, the Traum's big break never came. They did two albums for Capitol, neither of which ever got out of the underground. Not that they really minded: both the duo and Artie's solo act remained popular. Among those the Traums were popular with were Maria Muldaur, Jack Elliott, John Herald, and Dave Van Ronk (not to mention our Mr. Dylan), and they had a habit of turning up at each other's gigs and recording sessions. Hot mud All this time, they continued to progress, with Artie's writing and performing growing in sophistication and polish. A watershed of sorts was Mud Acres on Rounder Records, a cult classic with the Traums, Muldaur, Herald, Eric Kaz, Bill Keith, and several other old friends. It's subtitled "Music Among Friends," and that's probably the best description of its loose, amiable spirit, a lot pf which is also on the Traum's latest and best effort by themselves. Hard Times in the Country, also on Rounder. All of this is old news to the people who pack the Coffeehouse when Artie comes to town (this time around, he'll have backup guitarist and singer Pat Alger helping him out). If you've not heard what a solid, wholly enjoyable musician Artie is, give some serious thought to making it down but don't think too long or you'll be sold out! Rounding out the bill (no oun intended) is Bill — Maraschiello, an old face on the local folk scene, playing 12-string guitar, mandolin, (mostly) melodeon, and pennywhistle, and doing drinking songs, bawdy ballads, Kottke/Fahey style guitar instrumentals, Irish dance tunes, a few pieces of his own, and other music old and new. The whole shebang starts at 8:30 tonight and tomorrow night in Norton Union's First Floor Cafeteria. Tickets, you ask? At the Norton Ticket Office, where else? Doors of perception For example, the piece called Painting and Door contains in fact no door. There is instead the frame which defines a doorway, half of which juts into space above the canvas, while the other half runs down in front of the canvas almost to the bottom of it. The painting is a small semi-oval patch of blue placed just beneath the doorframe against a white background. In viewing this piece, one must make a decision as to what is to be seen as it appears and what is to be implied through the imagination. It has been said that Tapies' use of the color blue suggests an association with water. The problem comes then with the doorframe. It is both a part of the painting and a part of the space artfund the painting. As an opening, a passageway, it invites the imagination to move away from the reality outside the painting into the earth-like reality of the blue semi-oval. But, if the imagination is allowed this freedom, should it not also inscribe a door within the doorframe, as the title of the piece might suggest? If so, then the piece is not an invitation to cross the boundary of reality, but rather, a representation of it. Outldok A similar experience occurs in Grey With Two Black Spots. In this piece, the three-dimensional form of a window frame has been constructed with a thick layer of latex. The entire piece has a rough cement-like texture, and large black spots cover the area where two of the four window panes would be placed. Again, the imagination becomes confused. Is one to imagine he is looking through the window at the black spots, or are they, like the viewer, outside the piece? Indeed, if this is a window, why are the panes covered with sandy grey paint? Unlike Painting And Door, through the form of a window is apparent here, Tapies does not refer to it in the title of the piece. One of the problems with ambiguities and contradictions like these is that they often add up to a total non-meaning which leaves the viewer with no clear impression of what the artist has to say. Tapies, though, does not pretend to offer answers. He himself has said of his art that it seeks: "to give him (man) a theme for reflection, to shock him in order to rescue him from the madness of inauthenticity, and to lead him to self-discovery, to a consciousness of his real possibilities. Art and the real world In moving toward this goal, Tapies has attempted to form a complete language of communication through art. It requires that a dialogue be established between viewer and art wherein art is the stimulus to which the viewer must bring his own meanings, reactions, and responses. In his sculpture, especially, with its simple and familiar arrangement of such common objects as chairs, newspapers, and blankets, Tapies brings the real world into the world of art. It becomes a means to an illusion and an illusiion in itself, asking the viewer to re-think and possibly re-define his distinctions between what art and the real world are. To Tapies, the distihctions are few. The signature on the mixed-media piece, Ochre With Six Collages, is written backwards, as if it is a reflection acknowledging the presence of the artist within and without the work. In either instance, the viewer is free to join him ere ‘ —Gerald Sternesky EVANS ART Reperatory Film Cinema Sheridan & Evans 632-7700 All seats $2.00 - - Feb. 23-26 Wed, Thurs Fri. Sat.

Feb. 25 In the light of recent revelations concerning our government and its mysterious ways at home and abroad, paranoia has become not just an acceptable attitude, but a hobby for many people, screenwriters not excluded. Through such "traitors" as Daniel Ellsberg, Phillip Ages, or Woodward/Bernstein, we have seen that some of our trusted public servants will stop at nothing in their attempts to preserve the status quo, be it in the guise of Democracy, National Security, or just plain old Richard Nixon. Twilight's Last Gleaming and The Cassandra Crossing are two European-made films which, although superficially resembling the currently fashionable "disaster" epics, revolve around the ruthlessness our leaders display potentially when confronted with embarassing situations; In this aspect the films succeed, transcending their all-too-familiar (to movie-goers) story lines with trick endings, jaded guaranteed give to even the most to something think about. paranoia-junkie In Twilight we see Burt Lancaster (who appears films) at first as a cunning extortionist, then both in eventually as a political idealist, an ex-Air Force General whose unsavory beliefs caused the brass to have him framed for murder and sentenced to life imprisonment. Thus, having nothing to lose, General Dell recruits three other convicts, also ex-servicemen, breaks' out of prison, and sets off to commit the crime of the century. Having once been in command of a defense installation, Dell has very little trouble leading his men into a similar base, forcibly taking control of a nuclear missile silo, and preparing to start World War III if his demands are not met. The demands? Why, merely ten million dollars, full imunity from prosecution, the President as a hostage, and safe passage (aboard Air Force One) to the country of his choice. And, oh yes, there is one final stipulation after ransoming the missiles, the President must go on national; TV and read a classified document, the contents of which reveal the real reasons behind the Viet Nam War.

N Y 10019 (212) 245-7501 elected "President Stevens" (rather unconvincingly by Charles Durning) is shocked and disillusioned upon first seeing this document, which is in effect a crash course in high-level barbarism, just as Hitler and Stalin had been willing to "fight down to the last Spaniard" in pre-World War II Europe, so would the modern-day global powers sacreifice millions of lives in Southeast Asia, just to show that they were capable of doing so. Naturally, publication of such facts would cause National outrage, and Stevens' cabinet members are not prepared to meet this demand, under any circumstances. Likewise, Dell is not prepared to back off. Director Robert Aldrich uses the Air Force's vain attempts to regain control of their impregnable missile silo (led by Richard Widmark as Dell's nemesis. General Mackenzie) to provide too many minutes of artificial suspense, but his use of double and triple split-screen effects to convey a sense of chaos is noteworthy. Aside from some of the frenzied telephone exchanges between Dell, Mackenzie and other higher-ups, and some fine last-minute philospohising by Dell's last surviving henchman, (Roscoe Lee Browne), the film lacks convincing drama, particularly in scenes involving the president and his cabinet. However, it has its moments of ironically exquisite black humor, and if the final decision reached by the Cabinet members doesn't send chills down your spine, consider the fact that such a scenario might someday come to be. While Twilight succeeds more as a political statement than as an "action/adventure" film, The Cassandra Crossing is a superb example of the latter, and, taking into account the limitations of this medium, has much to recommend it. The plot, which is sort of a cross-breed between The Andromeda Strain and Ship of Fools begins at the "International Health Organization" headquarters in Geneva, where unscrupulous U.S. military leaders have been illegally storing toxins for some future war.

The Spectrum Page eleven . �Bonnie Raitt mixes Torontoband on the way up musical traditions Triumph by Richard Procassini Spectrum Music Staff In the past few years, Canada has produced some outstanding rock bands, bands like Rush and Heart. And now, Canada has come through again, this time with a high-powered trio from Toronto, that goes by the name of Triumph. This past week marked their first American tour. The band was formed early in 1976, and consists of Rik Emmett on guitars and vocals, Mike Levine on bass guitar (he also co-produced their first album), with Gil Moore completing the trio on drums and vocals. Triumph's first album, which is entitled Triumph, (What else?) was recorded in mid-1976, and is on the Canadian based Attic label. Triumph played their debut concert to a capacity crowd at the Toronto Forum in August of 1976. This concert earned the group much critical acclaim, as well as a largy following in their home town. Reviewing this condert, the magazine The Entertainer had a headline that read: "Forum Rocks to Triumph," and critics were soon referring tp the three Canadians as the "Second Led Zepellin." Having made a name for themselves in their homeland, the next step was a limited American tour. The first stop on this tour was to San Antonio, Texas last Friday night. The band rocked the "packed house of 6,000 in the San Antonio Municipal Auditorium" to a high-pitched frenzy. It seems that, like everything else in Texas, Triumph was big. But then, the group (eft the warmth of Texas for latitudes closer to home, and two gigs in the Queen City. Their first concert in the Buffalo area was Saturday, night at McVan's nightclub. accompanied by a live radio broadcast over WBUF-FM. Bassist Mike Levine commented that, "God, did we ever play at McVan's!" The final stop on the American tour was at After Dark, a nightclub in Colvin, New York last Sunday evening. The group also made a guest appearance at the Record Theater on Sunday r As for future American tours, he said that "Texas wants us back!" but believed that it would be better to play in other areas of the country first, before returning there to what he was sure would be a warm welcome. He said that the group might do a concert in the Chicago area, or possibly the New England area, during breaks in recording. "It all depends upon where we get FM airplay." He expressed a desire to tour the West Coast, but did not believe that they would in -the near future, because there is no great response to the little FM airplay they do receive out there. As for their music. Triumph is a mix of the best features of such groups as Aerosmith and Led Zepellin, but they nevertheless seem to hpve a style all their own. They have a knowledge of musical technology, and this is very evident in the album. On songs such as "24 Hours A Day" and "What’s Another Day of Rock and Roll," they demonstrate the heavy power chording style that earned them the title of "Led Zepellin 2," white on the "Blinding Light Show/Moonchild," they show their musical diversity in a slower, moody song through the use of mellotrons and acoustic guitars. This wide diversity in their style of music is what, in the end, will set Triumph apart from all the groups that they have been compared with. As for success, well, Triumph will just have to work on the new album, play a few more gigs, and then watch out. Rush and Heart, you'll soon have company at the top of the Canadian rock bands, because Triumph is on their way up. WEEKEND - UUAB FILMS Roman Polanski’s The Tenant KIDDIES MATINEE!!! CR&miRE Bonnie Raitt has received a lot of praise since the appearance of her 1971 debut album, Bonnie Raitt. She is often singled out for her "voice full of unleashed passion and sensual innocence" and the way she draws from the crowd when she lets go on her guitar (with overlapping funky chords, bottle neck and slide.) Bonnie isn't about to making music, let the accolades get in the way of her real vocation having a good time, and sharing with her audience an appreciation of both the older, more -overlooked originators of the blues styles she loves and the new, more elusive songwriters whose music is too often shoved into the record bargain bins of the country. — Her initial success in Philadelphia and Boston area clubs led to subsequent engagements at the Gaslite in New York, Philadelphia's Main Point, The Philadelphia Folk Festival and numerous colleges on the East coast. Off to an impressive start, Bonnie was soon to be priviledged to share the stage with many of her long time blues idols. She has played with Son House, Mississippi Fred McDowel, Arthur Crudup, Howlin' Wolf, and her special mentor Sippie Wallace. As her audiences and her versatility grew, she drew the interest of the record companies, and signed with Warners in 1971. Fans initially attracted by Bonnie's blues performances weren't dismayed with her debut album. The program included traditional material from Robert Johnson and Sippie Wallace and included performances by Chicago bluesmen Junior Wells and A.C. Reed. It was also one of the few albums recorded in the 70s on a four-track machine. The album reflected the difference between music made among friends living in the country and the kind squeezed out trying to beat city traffic and studio clocks. The LP also covered a range of styles which would eventually become a Raitt tradition a mix of country blues, early r&b, interpretations of hew songwriters, as well as — original Compositions. Since '71, Bonnie has gone on to record four more albums Give It Up, Takm' My Time, Streetlights, and Home Plate which draw on the funk of Little Feat and the lyrical appitude of Joni Mitchell. All of these disc have weathered critical acclaim and showcase much of the material perfected in her live performances. For all you blues lovers, Bonnie will perform at Shea's Buffalo on March 6 at 8;30 p.m. Special guest star will be Mose Allison; a concert you shouldn't miss. — “SHABBOTON” Amherst Chabad House Guest speaker Dr. Benzion Metzger Prof, of Psychology in Y.U.

The group plans to record the album during the week, while playing small gigs at local Toronto clubs. . The Spectrum . - NORTON UNION Friday, 25 February 1977 Prodigal Sun �The Kinks, Sleepwalker (Arista) Only two British rock groups have managed to stay together as long as Ray Davies' Kinks the Stones and The Who, of course. Ever since bursting onto the music scene in the wave of Beatlemania with hits like "You Really Got Me," "All Day and All of the Night," "Tired of Waiting for You (their highest peaking single), and others, the Kinks have always been a prime quality musical entity capable at times of putting out some of the most progressive rock music ever put on wax. Their string of concept albums beginning with Arthur The Rise and Fall of The British Empire, Village Green Preservation Society, the Preservation Series dealing with corruption in politics, and culminating with their final RCA offering Schoolboys In Disgrace 'remain unparalleled by any rock group, British or Amerian. Ray Davies, through his sensitive Songwriting was able to portray the feelings and’ sentiments of the little man," so often overlooked in both the music world and the real world. Songs like "Arthur," "Celluloid Heroes," and "Shangrila," are just a mere sampling of the man classics Ray Davies has composed dealing with the "little man." If the Kinks records were half as successful commercially as they were artistically, they's all be millionaires and would never have had to label hop. But in the music business, such is not usually the case. The Kinks are presently with their third record label, Clive Davis' Arista, having just exited RCA. As a debut. Sleepwalker is the first non-concept album for the Kinks in a number of years. Also, for a change, there were no female singers adding the backup vocals that only took away from the sound of their last few disks. It's the Kinks, and the Kinks alone, Ray and Dave Davies, Mick Avory, and John Dalton. The group sounds tighter and more cohesive as a band than in the recent past, with John Dalton playing outstanding bass throughout the record, and Dave Davies totally mastering his lead guitar. It seems that with each passing Kinks' album, the guitar playing of Dave Davies has gotten progressively better and better, and, if the Kinks were just a little more popular than they are, there's no doubt in my mind thathe would be ranked up with the best guitarists in rock. His guitar work immeasureably enhances the entire album. But full credit must deservedly go to Ray Davies for writing, producing, arranging, and providing the Kinks with multitudes of inspiration, enabling them to put together this Grade-A effort. One can only hope that perhaps, with their new label and their continued musical brilliance, the Kinks will finally achieve some of the long-overdue stardom they've sought so long for. Steven Brieff - - — Helen Schneider, So Close (Windsong) This lass, who looks like a cross between Liza Minelli and Cher is yet so far. Her debut album represents a "turn around to so close her roots." An ex-rock n' roller, she's gone middle-of-the-road, singing other people's songs. Well, honey, nice voice and all, that does not sell records. With two tunes co-written by Neil Sedaka and one penned by Daryl Dragon (The Captain of Tennile,) the question is just who is she trying to appeal to? Her voice is probably most reminiscent of Barbara Streisand; gutsy, wailing almost more than singing (that image is helped along by the fact that she is reared in Brooklyn). Yet she manages to change her style a bit. On "Sad Eyes" she gives a dash of Maria Muldaur, On "Why Don't We Live Together" it's a reminder of Carole King. By blending these styles together, she manages to have no two songs sounding the same. She prefers ballads and does sing them quite well, definitely a voice that could make it. But since she doesn't write her own material, she'll have to either copy a big hit, or land a movie soundtrack to really stand out and be noticed; I must admit though, as I listened I did find her voice vivacious and captivating, even on slow, sad ballads. She's a good singer, but not so good that you want to run right out and throw down $4 on her album. She's been a club performer; she may have to stay there until that "big song" comes her way. When it does, I think she will capitalize on the opportunity and make it big. But this album doesn't have what it takes to make her that noticeable. It's an enjoyable album, and she may become a great singer, but for now Helen Schneider will stay so Steve McKee yet so far away from the big time. close . .. — ... RECORDS City Boy, Dinner At The Ritz. (Phonogram) How does one become one of the musical elite these days? Well, if I were to write a book with the not-completely-original title, "How To Win Friends and Influence Critics and Musicians," a number of chapters would consist primarily of demonstrating "How To Flaunt The Words 'Progressive Rock'." Mention these linguistic aberrations at any gathering and you have the power to turn more heads than Farrah Fawcett-Majors or E.F. Hutton. Should you move your mouth's muscles to utter the three syllables "Cit-y Boy" you will become a veritable Medusa in commanding your audience. Ah, you say, you have not heard of them? You have made two regrettable mistakes. Firstly, you should know that City Boy is an excellent group from England. Secondly, you should never admit to not knowing about any progressive rock group; rather you should sip your party drink, maintaining a pixie-like, knowing spark in your eye and nod with persuasive affirmation at the mention of a progressive rock group's name. §o, you don't know who City Boy is you can fake it by asking, "Their ARP and moog synthesizer player is good, isn't he? Since all progressive rock bands use synthesizers, you have acted correctly, as if you actually know something about them and prodded your conversant partner to speak at length about City Boy. Should you ask me, I vyould observe in a deludingly obscene manner that City Boy's latest album, Dinner At the Ritz, is one of the great albums of all time. But try not to tell too many people. If they become too popular, the clutter of the masses will swipe the veil of progressive rock illusion from the smirking faces of City Boy. Because truthfully, there is no such thing as progressive rock; it is all simply undiscovered popular music. Do not be fearful of this innovation. There is some need, though, to hush it up. The vocals of Lol Mason and Steve Broughton simulate the cynical quality of Mason's lyrics with a flair for the sublime. The keyboards of Max Thomas illuminate and stimulate the ruddy, punning jokes. One is aroused to this poignancy on a thoughtful title wherein a cut, level the in keep-up-with-the-Jonses material sex life and subsequent birth rights are found to be impossible to drives me spare Dinner at the Ritz, I'd be pleased to make an appointment I'll be at your door an hour before we arranged. This cut is particularly interesting because of the deep submersion into drunkenness which portrays the drowning of one's worries as not a private, but a public affair. The well-known progressive rock group Van Der Graff Generator adds their brand of vocal song's conclusion. More punning delight is found in the tune "Narcissus." The story of the Greek boy who fell into self-love by viewing his reflection in a pond and subsequently changed into a flower, is combined with the dark fate of auto-eroticism? party revelry at the — achieve; I'm constantly aware of the things we can never share A t the stork dub some chic little pub that I could never afford But wish that / could bare your ultra feminine / flair For your accent on current events over dinner Don't need no audience round me; I'm fond of my own company Who wants the birds and the bees when i've always got me up my sleeve. Fiddler Jack Holstein lends his bow to the super-ballad, "The Violin," a song of the memories of love turning into happy reality. Atypically straightforward, this tune extolls the virtues of recollection through the metaphoric visage of an old lady peering through the window of the Ritz, a restaurant which held remembrances of her first love. Bergman could do a job on this story, should he desire to film it; it is art which is pure.

This is not a reason to vote against the fee (more on that later). The trouble is that the people who are elected usually don't owe their elections to commuters and therefore don’t give a damn about their problems. Commuters must take the time to read about the candidates, find out about platforms, and then take the two minutes that is needed to vote and elect a strong pro-commuter government. Make sure that the candidates support increased funding of the Commuter Council so it can provide more breakfasts, evening events, and an expansion of the bus token project. The new administration should encourage UUAB to schedule more and afternoon events (UUAB has started with a In the beginning. Peter Gabriel begat Genesis and Progressive Rock fans thought it was good. Gabriel split like a bad brother would, and Phil Collins begat a second Genesis. And this Monday evening, the Paranoia —continued from page 11 — ... apprehended trying to blow up the building, and in the ensuing gunfight, a beaker of pneumonic plague toxin (for which there is no known antidote) is shattered. One of the terrorists, now carrying the highly infectious plague, escapes through a broken window and stows away on the Transcontinental Express, a luxury train carrying a thousand people from Geneva to Stockholm (with several stops in between). This is where the fun begins. Naturally, the train is carrying a bunch of nofmal, likeable people who do not yet know of the impending doom in the baggage car, and cliche begins to set in as the characters are developed: a twice-divorced couple (Richard Harris and Sophia Loren) whose relationship is once again on the road to reconciliation; the dowager wife (Ava Gardner) of a wealthy arms manufacturer and her emasculated escort (Martin Sheen) who also happens to be a heroin smuggler; an elderly traveling salesman/ concentration camp survivor who eventually helps to save the day; a group of traveling American hippies who sing songs and practice free love; and O.J. Simpson, an ex-football player masquerading as an actor playing a coy who is disguised as a minister (and chasing Martin Sheen). Hoo Boy. Meanwhile, back at the International Health Organization, the head doctor (Ingrid Thulin) and an American General (Burt Lancaster again) are busy trying to decide what to do about their little problem. Having determined that the carrier is indeed aboard the Transcontinental Express, they alert the train's conductor and the local authorities, who prevent it, at gunpoint, from stopping anywhere along its route. Eventually, General Mackanzie manages to arrange for the train to continue to Janov in Poland, where an "isolation camp" is being readied. Not until the train is welded shut in Nuremburg by hundreds of American soldiers in alien-looking isolation suits do the passengers even suspect what is going on. Surprise quickly turns to horror as the soldiers board the train and the auful i revelation of the second coming of Collin's Genesis will be begat at the Aud at 8 p.m. with a trick of the tail. Tickets are $7.50 and $6.50 and available at the Norton Hall Ticket Office. truth is finally revealed, The real horror story begins, however, when the General is informed that the long-unused railroad bridge (The "Cassandra Crossing" itself) which the train is to cross en route to Janov is structurally unsound. Attempts to save the train's occupants are soon given second priority as a second, more convenient alternative presents itself: a "terrible accident" could be allowed to occur, thus leaving plague, victims, train, and all their politically embarassing ramifications at the bottom of a river behind the Iron Curtain. Elementary. Even after it is discovered that the plague may not be as lethal as had been supposed, the train is allowed to continue toward its objective, in the interest of keeping the whole event hushed up, and thereby saving face for the U.S. Mayhem ensues. As I said previously, The Cassandra Crossing holds its own from the standpoint of an "action/adventure" film, and, as such, the drama is a bit strained and predictable in places. However, director George Pan Cosmatos more than makes up for these shortcomings through the twists in his nice screenplay, and brilliant editing, both of which will keep the viewer on the proverbial "edge of his seat" all the way through the film's amazing climax. Beautiful footage of the European countryside, combined with the unsettling feeling evoked by the concept of a "train to nowhere" help make this the solidly entertaining movie that’it is. So, there you have it: two entertaining but flawed movies, each made interestingly scary by asking a question that should concern us all; who is actually calling the shots'In world politics, and to what lengths will they go to achieve their ends? Each film ends with an air of mystery, leaving the viewer with the uneasy "I wonder what happened next?" feeling, and the beauty of it is, who is to say that such events have not already occurred, here or elsewhere, without our knowledge? -John Duncan O BEER<& w 9:30 - 11:30 pm Eve.Ry Monday /Eight!

We need an administration who will work to put commuters into the appointed positions. We need an administration that will care when the parking lots are plowed and will protest strongly when the lots are in poor shape. Overall we will need an administration that is sensitive to the special needs of commuters. We urge every commuter to read not only The Spectrum endorsement but The Spectrum Interviews, the candidates’ campaign material, and the handouts in Norton. Then, if you really care about the University, about how the fees are spent, and about your problems then go out either March 2nd or 3rd or 4th and VOTE. Voting machines can be found in Norton, Acheson, Ridge Lea and various sites on Amherst. Check The Spectrum and problems and VOTE!!! The Mandatory Fee Every couple years state law requires a vote on the student mandatory fee. We are breaking our official non-partisan position which is forced on us by a ban on endorsements passed by the Senate, to urge all commuters to vote YES on the mandatory fee. This may sound strange for we have been very critical of the way the fee has been allocated. But our criticisms have always been centered on the fact that commuters don't receive their fair share. If the fee were voted down alt funding of commuter breakfasts, evening events, and the bus token project, would end along with the end of The Spectrum, all clubs and organizations, the Record Coop, Birth Control Clinic, Sunshine House, NVPIRG, GAC, Legal Aid, etc. SA governmerit would all be shut down and all easy jokes aside, that would be a disaster. With no voice to represent students to the Ketter Administration we would be worse off than we are now (yes, it is possible to be worse off than we are now). We urge every student, commuter and dorm, to vote YES on the mandatory student fee. Apology Time In our last column we blamed CSEA for working to keep the University open on bad snow days. Because of this we received a not so nice phone call from a Mr. Lattimer of CSEA who claimed that CSEA did not want UB opened and that they had worked hard to close the University. Apparently our information was wrong (although it remains to. be seen how hard CSEA worked to get UB closed. If they were working that hard they were very ineffective.). In any event we extend our deepest apologies to CSEA for our unjust remarks and we will try to be more careful in the future. However our concern for the safety of commuter students forced to drive in extremely bad weather remains. Perhaps the best strategy for not only CSEA, but students and faculty would be to refuse to report to classes and for work on bad snow days. Then Dr. Ketter and Dr. administrating themselves.

Friday, 25 February 1977 Prodigal Sun �Spirit.Future Games (A Magical-Kahauna Dream) (Mercury) Imagine yourself sitting down at a Hawaiian Luau, being entertained by dancers in long grass skirts, then being whisked away to the far corners of the galaxy abord the Enterprise, engaged in fierce combat with a Romulan starship, then roaring down the highway in your rig, with your "good buddy Salty Dog," then dancing the "Freakout Frog" with the Kermit on Sesame Street. Well, it's all possible after just one listen to the Spirit album Future Games,. Randy California and company have put together one of the more unusual albums of this new year, by combining the themes mentioned above into a coherent (coherent?) musical composition. The individual songs are fused into one continous side of music through the use of taped television dialogues from the series "Star Trek" and from reruns of old horror movies. At points this begins to interfere with the Spirit, total effect of the music. Upon first listening to the album, one wonders whether the effects were recorded to enhance the music, or vice-versa. Picture yourself listening, trying to understand the significance of the lyrics when all of the sudden, Kirk and Spock fade in to interrupt your thoughts. It takes a few listens to catch onto tile coronation between the songs and the effects used, and by then you will either say that the album is sheer genius, or that it could be used as background music for a movie about the thoughts of a psychotic killer. The use of such effects reminds of recent Pink Floyd compositions, in which that group used dialogues from British television to enhance their themes of paranoia and insanity. If you can wade through all of the extraneous bullshit and aet down to the music, you may wonder why Spirit included these effects at all. There ar.e many fine recurring musical themes throughout the album, with cuts of previous songs showing up from time to time in the latter songs. Guitarist California and Spirit member Ed Cassidy are responsible for writing most of the material on the album, with the group borrowing some ideas from Jimi Hendrix resulting in a synthesized version of Bob Dylan's "All Along The Watchtower." The best material on the albums are those pieces which incorporate California's piercing guitar, with synthesizer and a synthesized bass providing the foundation. In songs such "Detroit City" and "Freakout Frog,” the group deviates from their usual sound, taking on a bluesy feel in the first, and a more humorous and lighter side in the latter. California's vocals are clear and strong, and it is a pity that the lyrics can't make the same claim. The lyrics are very incoherent and illogical, and even stupid at times. A'good example of this is the lyrics from "Jack Bond Speaks:" When they dropped their death wish on the shore The sounds of panic, no mercy filled the air Chinese babies He dead on the other side And the next day we bought Datsuns andSonys And the next day we bought Datsuns and Sonys It is ironic that most of the album is based on Star Trek, because the illogic of the lyrics would have surely turned Mr. Spock's stomach. Well, to sum it all up, the album would be the perfect thing to listen to if you wanted to ensure permanent brain damage while tripping on acid, because while the music is first rate, the effects, ovydubs, echoes, etc., create an atmosphere of mild Richard Procassini i n sa n i ty. » — RECORDS Freddie Hubbard, Here to Stay (Btuenote) One of the more recent releases of vital American music in the Blue Note Re-Issue Series, this double album exgibits trumpeter Freddie Hubbard during part of his most inspired period the late '50's and early 1960's. The years 1961 and '62 of these recording sessions coincides with Hubbard's 2'A year apprenticeship with Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers. He hooked in with Blakey in 1961 and set out on his own in 1963%. previously The unreleased 1962 session contained on the first two sides includes three of Hubbard's fellow Messengers during this time. Notably Wayne Shorter playing tenor saxophone, Cedar Walton on piano, bassist Reggie Workman, and to fill the quintet, Philly Joe Jones on drums. The clean crackling lines (excluding an occassional upper — — challenge. When there’s a challenge, quality makes the difference. We hope you have some fun with the challenge.

Since 1844 it always has. register crackle) and sharp power, characteristic of Hubbard's trumpet of this period, fly out of the speakers on the first track. "Philly Mignon.'' The explosive drumming of Philly Joe propels the quintet ahead while the activity of bassist Workman and the intuitive note placements of Walton's piano contribute to the rapid pace of the music. Calvin Massey's piece of beauty, "Father and Son," unfolds into some walking improvisation, further displaying the tight interaction of the rhythm section. Wayne Shorter's melodic harmonic explorations are not as evident on this session as on some others made around this time, although he does develop a few good solo ideas on this album. Shorter sensitively introduces the American classic "Body and Soul" as Hubbard proceeds to handle the ballad confidently with his warm sound. Philly Joe Jones digs down and comes up with some hard driving drumming to launch "Full Moon and Empty Arms." The use of triple meter on "Nostrand and "Assunta," Fulton” and composed by Hubbard and Calvin provide Massey, respectively, bases for prpvocative improvisation by all the soloists involved. The reissued 1961 Hub Cap sessions covering sides 3 and 4 places Hubbard in the same context as in Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers with the addition of trombonist Julian Priester. The rhythm section remains the same, with the exception of Larry Ridley, who replaces bassist Along Workman. with the exchange of Wayne Shorter for the be-bop based tenor saxophone of Jimmy Heath, these personnel and instrumentation changes alter the texture of the music considerably. The larger ensemble sound seems to make this a more inspired performance than the previous, particularly firing up the fire of drummer Jones. The third side begins with the ensemble theme of Hubbard's encompassing Cap," "Hub energetic by solo ventures Hubbard, Heath, Priester, and Walton. The sorrowful sound of Randy Weston's "Cry Me Not" uses the horns to compliment Hubbard's emotional outbursts and is followed by the pleasing rhythms of melody in "Luana," a Hubbard composition, to finish off the side. "Osie Mae” firmly flows forward as Philly Joe plays a strong Blakeyesque fhythm that sets up equally strong soloing from all involved. "Plexus," a piece by pianist Walton, soars upward, propelling Hubbard to some outer limits, with Philly Joe sticking ;to his ass all the way. "Earmon Jr.” another composition by the trumpeter, provides music on the same consistently cooking level. It's a pleasure to listen to Hubbard at his best after hearing his questionable musical attempts of late. This album displays Freddie Hubbard at his finest.

To actually defeat four varsity teams was a satisfactory accomplishment for this year’s track and field organization which has been demoted to club status. Leading the Bulls in their scoring efforts was senior Walter Haladay who placed in two events. Haladay captured second place in the 35 pound hammer throw with a 4U10” performance and took sixth place in the shot put with a 43’10” heave. In the 50 yard dash senior Paul Kubicki survived two qualifying heats before unleashing a 5,8 effort that was good for fourth place. Strong mile relay Buffalo’s mile relay team consisting of freshmen Mark Hines and Bob Reiss along with veteran trackmen Greg Willis and Pete Schiffler easily won its heat arid finished third overall. , One of the bright spots of the meet for the Bulls was the performance of Senior distance runner John Ryerson. Ryerson entered the mile run and strided across the finish line in 4:37, a good clocking on the irregular Rochester track. His time was good for third place overall. Ryerson came back later to take fifth qi the 2-mile run with a 10:05 time. In the quarter mile run, the Bulls had a fine scoring effort completely nullified by a questionable call by the officials. The incident occured when Buffalo’s school record holder in the event, senior Joe Woroby, was disqualified for breaking for the pole (i.e. leaving his lane) too soon, although Buffalo coach Walter Gantz felt that Woroby still ran the required distance, Woroby otherwise would have taken third, while teammates Willis, Reiss and Scfiiffler took fifth, sixth and eighth place respectively. Gantz was neither pleased nor displeased with his team’s performance. “This team has not been able to work out,” said.Gantz "The big value of this meet is that it showed the team where it stood Now they know what they have to do The Bulls will try to do it tomorrow when they send 20 men to face the powerful teams of Alfred and Mansfield State at -Alfred’s indoor track facility.

In addition, Stephens, Canisius’ quicksilver guard, was penetrating Buffalo’s zone. easily against Stephens scored nine points and dished off for five assists bf halftime. Buffalo shifted to a defense (the t ri angle-and-two forwards and center play a zone, play guards the while man-to-man). “We wanted to put pressure on their guards while our big men stayed back to protect the backboards,” Richardson said. The strategy had mixed results, as Stephens could no longer penetrate (he had zero assists’ in the second half), but the Griffins were able to get open shot after open shot, hitting on 74 percent of their second half field goal attempts. George Cooper led Buffalo with twenty points, while Dave Spiller and Stephens had seventeen for Canisius. Jones also had seventeen for the Bulls. Richardson, like the rest of his team, was happy with the win, but put the game into perspective. “We‘ve still lost nineteen games, regardless,” he said. The next night, Buffalo went down to its twentieth defeat, losing to Fairfield 93-83 at Erie Community College North. The Stags ■ shot "Tent City " , 730 Main at Tapper 853-1515 well, and against Buffalo’s defense, which looked like it had never seen a pass, ran out to a twenty-four point lead.

The Griffins scored a 33 point win last year so Buffalo was looking for revenge. Pellom described his attitude before the game as revengeful. “1 just wanted to beat Canisius,” he said. “We owed them one from last year.” hot outside Jones, whose shooting (7-for-l0) and strong offensive rebounding kept Buffalo in the game, also was psyched for Canisius. “1 really wanted this the senior forward said. game been “I’ve here four years and we haven’t come close to beating them present Good Seats Still Available From the way the Buffalo basketball team celebrated after they had defeated Canisius 78->77 Monday night, one would never suspect it was only the team’s fourth victory of the year. The reason the team was so happy was that it was more than just a normal victory. For one thing, Buffalo finally showed that it could perform in the clutch. Throughout most of the year, Buffalo either made costly mistakes in tight games, or collapsed altogether, so when Canisius took a ten point lead into the final three minutes, the situation looked rather hopeless for Buffalo. Then, Bulls guard George Cooper hit a bucket with 2:45 left, and Canisius tried to stall. They turned the ball over, and Cooper hit a freethrow. Buffalo’s Donald Scott hit a long jumper, teammate Mike Jones hit two freethrows and Buffalo was down 76-73 with 1:36 left. Scott stole the ball from Griffins’ guard Rene Stephens and fed Buffalo center Sam Pellom who was fouled. Pellom hit one freethrow, and with only 32 seconds left, Pellom hit a jumper to tie the game. John Sommers scored one freethrow for Canisius, Buffalo, without any and timeouts left, hurried the ball upcourt. Scott missed a long but Mike Jones jumper, rebounded. Jones’ shot was off, but Pellom was alone at the left of the basket and softly banked the rebound in, with five seconds left, giying Buffalo the win.

There was one abstention. The voters in opposition apparently based their disagreement on the date of the referendum some felt that more time was needed to educate graduate employees as to the issues, and supported an April 14 voting date, just after spring recess. No voices were raised in opposition to a referendum as such. The purpose of the referendum, whose exact wording will be determined next Sunday, is tq determine graduate student employee sentiment with regard to a strike that would attempt to shut down all University activities until satisfactory negotiations with the Union have been carried out. — Intercollegiate champs Wrestling Bulls capture title by Marshall Ros<^|)^l Spectrum Staff Writer After two days competition at the of intense New York State Invitational Tournament in Canton, Buffalo’s wrestling Bulls emerged as'the New York State Champions for Intercollegiate 1977. Led by coach Ed Michael, the Bulls have captured the title for the sixth time in the past seven seasons. With a dual meet record of 15-1, the host, St. Lawrence University squad, was heavily favored to win the competition, but the Bulls shut the door on St. Lawrence as well as the other sixteen opposing schools. In its bid for the number one ranking in New York State, the Bulls were able to place all ten of their grapplers in the championship tournament. Characterized as a young team since there is only one senior in the lineup, the Bulls were able to secure individual honors with two winners, first-place four runnerups, one third place qualifier, two fifth places and one sixth place winner. Oliveri drained The Bulls Tony Oliveri (118) was the first to take the mat. Seeded second in the tournament, Oliveri quite easily defeated his two opening round opponents. In the final round against Cortland’s Bob Addy, Oliveri was nipped 3-1, but retained second place honors. “I couldn’t get myself going, I was drained,” he said. He continued, “It feels a lot better winning second place this year than it did winning fifth last year as a for Fortunately freshman.” Oliveri, he has two more seasons to prove he is best in the State. (126) has Ray Pfeifer something else to prove. For the third consecutive year, Pfeifer won the title. No one in New York State history has won a title four times, and Pfeifer plans to be the first grappler in the state to do so next year. But this year, Pfeifer win among continued to controversy from coaches and officials. pinning After his initial opponent and swamping the next 14-3, Pfeifer met Cortland’s Wade Cummings. With thirty seconds left in the last period of competition and ahead 3-2, Pfeifer was given a warning for stalling. After two unsuccessful attempts at taking Cummings down, Pfeifer was called for stalling in the waning few seconds, sending the match into overtime. Pfeifer excited The excited Bull, upset by the official’s decision, quickly set out to prove his superiority. After recording a takedown, Pfeifer held on to win 3-1 in overtime. Placing sixth the in competition, Gene Tundo (142) was not the benefactor in two close decisions. Tundo was further aggravated by a knee injury which —continued on page 7 — Close vote last spring In the Union’s first referendum early last April, 308 of 564 voting graduate employees favored a strike, with 256 opposed. The Union, however, felt that at least one third (approximately 325) of all graduate student employees should vote yes before a walkout would be declared, and thus the vote fell 17 short of the necessary 325. Union member Chris Lubinski stated that the interpretation of this year’s vote will be decided at this Sunday’s meeting where the referendum’s exact wording will also be determined. Asked on what she thought the result of the referendum might be, Lubinski enthused, “We know we can get the vote out, and we’ve got a better chance than last year.” In a “Strike Committee Report,” the Union described the nature of the strike that graduate student employees will consider next month. Teaching and graduate assistants (TA’s and GA’s) are to stop “all work and academic activities” and to participate in picketing and other strike related work. Foreign graduates are to participate fully, but they will “maintain a low public profile” when made necessary by that student’s status as a foreign resident. Non-state funded graduates are asked “not to scab.” Exceptions listed are graduate employees “involved in supplying vital psychiatric and medical services” and those involved in long term research that would be irreparably set back by complete neglect. Several legal levels Also presented at the Sunday meeting was a report on the legal aspects of a possible strike. Sue Silber, a lawyer working with the GSEU, described three levels of legal ‘jeopardy’ involved should a strike be carried out. For all three, Silber seemed to feel optimistic with regard to escaping penalties should there be any prosecution. First Silber spoke of the Taylor Law, the state statute that public employees from striking. It has been the administration position to date that graduate employees are only ‘stipended, not salaried,’ therefore not being employees. Though this would exempt graduate employees from the jurisdiction under the Taylor Law, many Union members feel that the administration will nevertheless attempt to claim that graduate employees fall under it. Silber emphasized that this would be tacit recognition of the graduate employee’s right to unionize, heretofore denied by both Executive prohibits —continued on page 8— �m IONITE Wednesday i-\ DRINK n’ DROWN ‘Hearts and Minds showing 9 147 at 7:45 p.m. on The movie Hearts and Minds is being shown in Diefendorf American involvement in the Vietnam Thursday, February 24.

The college has decided to offer a course exploring the psychology of soaps in an attempt to help the students come to grips with why people become addicted to watching Mary Hartman’s marital difficulties and cringing at the pain and problems in “As the World Turns.” The instructors of the course are Monmouth professor Kenneth Haun and his wife, Julie. “People watch because they do not want to get involved in real life situations,” Mrs. Haun said. “It’s really an escape. Mr. and Mrs. Haun began watching soap operas after their sixth child was born. “We would sit down to feed the baby*, turn on the television set and discover ourselves involved in the soaps,” she said.

No such issue or person Student currently exists. Association may well remain impotent, unresponsive to student needs, and a haven for status-seekers and mercenaries. We would’ prefer it were an organization where people with ideas and leadership can bring student influence to bear on the Over the past University decision-making process. is year’s This election accompanied by a student activity fee referendum. We point this out because the student government directly control the officers spending of the activity fee, which is a voluntary tax. Careful scruntiny . of the candidates implies careful scrutiny of those who we charge with allocating our money. In making the following endorsements, we are aware of the flaws and inequities of the only regularly-published student newspaper on campus exerting too much influence over the outcome of an election. Nevertheless, because of an almost invisible election process, we have endorsed candidates who we feel will work long hours to restore a student voice on campus, even if that goal ■remains an illusory one. At the very least, we hope to discourage students from voting for candidates whose insensitivity, elitism and lack of knowledge would be catastrophic if they were given a mandate to serve in SA. This year’s endorsements have been made earlier than any previous year’s endorsements at the request of SA officials who felt a period of reply ought to be allowed to the candidates. All candidates were interviewed this past weekend by the Special Features Editor. Feature Edi'to, Campus Editors, Managing Editors and Editor-in Chief of The : Spectrum. President The Student Association (SA) will be undergoing a tremendous strain next year with the beginning of its move to the Amherst Campus. The candidate who most clearly indicated that this was a major priority and who demonstrated that he had already jconsidered avenues for alleviating the expected strain was Dennis Delia. For this reason, along with several others, we feel that Delia is the best choice for President. His ranking of academics as the first concern of a student government was backed by a clear understanding of important areas like the four-course load and the issue of academic freedom. He expressed a willingness and an ability to work with the Graduate Employees Student Union (GSEU), something that was clearly lacking from SA’s opinions, an action that would have to be looked into when thoroughly more one student were legitimate, his solutions were beyond belief, and for that reason we feel that Stegman could not benefit either SA or the student body. grievances Executive Vice President The Executive Vice President must exhibit a pliant, reasonable attitude, along with an ability to communicate clearly With others. Andrew Lalonde exhibits this and other abilities, and therefore would be an excellent Executive Vice President of SA. His background as Director of Academic Affairs has given him not only good understanding of the workings of SA, but also of its limitations, weaknesses and areas ‘of possible improvement. His comprehension of the four-course load and credit-contact hour debate is a definite plus and will aid in the planning of" student government policy. His willingness to take a firm stand with GSEU in and fighting cutbacks retrenchment on this campus is another asset. The aforementioned ability of Lalonde to communicate with others will lend stability to many of the chaotic meetings an Executive Vice President must chair. He indicated that he would try to prevent meetings from degenerating into shouting matches as they had this year, even if he had to adjourn and call for cooling-off periods before any business would be conducted. Scott Miller expressed a firm commitment to student needs and concerns but would not fill the position as well as Lalonde. His Although Lessoff’s knowledge of Sub Board specifics is not as extensive as is Black’s, we feel he would quickly flick up the missing pieces. Moreover, we believe that his experiences with UUAB would bring a fresh perspective to the Board of Directors. Unlike Black, Lessoff favors giving Division latitude in more Directors deciding where cuts should be made, and he does not approve of a separate summer activity budget for UUAB. He feels that Division' Directors generally do not need heavy policing. Both Dennis Black and Jeff Lessoff are qualified candidates for Vice President for Sub Board. Each was rather harshly criticized year’s election in last endorsements, but both have worked hard in the year since, and it showed. They differ in their theories as to the degree of control the Board of Directors should have, but each of their viewpoints is viable, and both candidates have impressive track records. Treasurer The Spectrum endorses both candidates for the position of Treasurer, Cheryl Williams and Neil Seiden. Both have a matqre understanding of the role and duties of the. Student Association Treasurer, and both appear to be well qualified by past experience: Seiden has assistant been Treasurer since the beginning of the year and acting Treasurer for the past two months; Williams has served in the Financial Assembly this year. Both candidates indicated their belief that the Treasurer should experience with the Senate is reflect policy formed by others considers the low level of commendable, but he does not and exert influence as a policy acceptance of SCATE on this have the full understanding of SA maker themselves. campus.

While not entirely clear on his plans for Fall Orientation and other specifics of his position, he seems to possess the necessary imagination to deal with these tasks as they arise. We were impressed with his idea of placing booths on the first floor of Norton Hall to attract students who would not otherwise seek out information about club activities. Steve Ferst’s best qualification lies in his thorough knowledge of and Student the campus Association, and this knowledge would no doubt serve him weJl as we’ieef*' an SA official. this is not enough to recommend him for the Director for Student position Affairs, a where imagination, diplomacy and other personal intangibles are almost as important as practical knowledge.

Director for Academic Affairs We were not overly impressed with either candidate for Academic Affairs, and therefore hesitate to make an endorsement. Both.candidates for the position, Steven Spitz and Elsie Dubois, failed to impress us with their knowledge of academia at this University. We cannot stress the of enough cruciality educational quality at this University. But, judging by the interview, it is doubtful whether Dubois or Spitz understood its significance. On the four-course load, both candidates stated the importance of maintaining the present system without offering any qualified reasoning. Both naively accepted the four-course load as is, even though there has never been any documented evidence that confirms or even suggests its benef iciality to students. Although Spitz mentioned the two year Binghamton study — ultimately led to j the justification of 4 credits for, *96 percent of its courses he did not explain how he would conduct or contribute to a similar study here. any Dubois didn’t reveal knowledge of a study, although she did accurately discuss potential scheduling problems if class times are extended. Neither candidate discussed any trends in undergraduate which — education, even though they were continually the prodded. University Spitz felt overly did emphasize graduate courses,, but barely skimmed the undergraduate level. Dubois left us with the same impression. he The Colleges were also discussed superficially. In essence, Dubois spoke only of Clifford Furnas College of which she is a member, while Spitz literally read off a handbook List of the Colleges and their purposes. Neither discussed the original intentions of the Colleges and whether these �innovations were ever met. However, in Dubois’ candidate’s statement, she does comment on the Colleges in more explicit detail. Spitz was better prepared to answer our questions. He had obviously done more research, although it was limited in scope. We feel that he is not fully aware of the ebbs and flows of the University, and his perspective is far too narrow. While Dubois was more imaginative, she also lacked Neither practical knowledge. seemed competent to defend academic issues or pursue academic integrity a must for the position. — . Director for Student Activities and Services This year, the race for Director of Student Activities and Services is unique in that it features the candidate running for only re-election. She’s Pat Lovejoy, and we feel she deserves a second term. Though quiet and low-key, Lovejoy has a certain spunkiness in pressure situations which we find most refreshing. During her year in office, Lovejoy has steadily expanded campus activities, especially those aimed at the oft maligned commuter student, yet she is aware of the fiscal realities which make the prospects for something like varsity football rather dim for the near future. Of the other two candidates for this post, Phil Dinhofer ahd Devin Weiner, neither showed any quality which could make them more effective than Lovejoy. Dinhofer feels the University Union Activities Board (UUAB) has been paying inflated prices for entertainment, and believes that with a little “hustling” the UUAB budget could be used for more and better programming. However, his idea for finding funds for a football team is somewhat shaky. He believes that a significant portion of the funds needed could be" skimmed from the travel expenses of other varsity teams. Weiner believes that concerts, movies and other events could become income producing activities if the admissions to them were raised from nothing, in the case of varsity sports, to as high as five or six dollars to see a headline rock band. His idea to air WBFO programs in Norton Hall is creditable. Representative to College Council To rank the position of student representative to the College any order of in Council the other among importance positions would be irrelevant, but to deny its uniqueness would be ignorant. The position demands a being of capable person diplomatic with the council members because the council is comprised of some of the wealthiest and most powerful business people in Buffalo. At the same time, however, it demands a person who can stand firm on his or her convictions on students’ welfare and rights. Above all, the student representative to the Council must feel obligated to raise a hand of dissent when he or she feels that the Council is wrong in any situation or decision that directly affects students here. We endorse Cindy Whiting for student representative to the Council because she College exhibits not only a better understanding of the position than do the other candidates, but a willingness to implement this diplomatic dissent whenever she or the student body deems it necessary. Phyllis Schaffner, another for the position, emphasized that because she is as old as the council members and therefore she would not be intimidated by them. What she failed to realize is that most people, students included, are more intimidated by money and power possessed by the council members, rather than by their ages. Her years of service to students at this University would well be appreciated in other areas. Joyce Levin is nice, well intentioned and articulate, but is not forceful enough to stand firm under any kind of serious pressure. She does not feel that the possibility of a student vote on the Council is important because one vote would not make much difference in council decisions. Glen McMillan feels that the student representative should remain neutral when discussing matters with the important Council. We feel that this is a basic contradiction of terms taking a somebody because neutral stand on anything cannot truly be representative of a student bcfdy. candidate SASU delegates This year’s candidates for Student Association of the State University (SASU) delegate form an enthusiastic and competent generally strong field. The characteristics of the candidates in difficulty caused some discerning a triumverate we feel would be best suited to represent Buffalo students. Reardon, However, Clare Debbie White and Jeff -Winkler .appear to be the most prudent choices for SASU delegate. Reardon is perhaps the most impressive of the three, possessing a perspicacious outlook toward student government and a strong command of the English language. her Although articulateness should not be accepted prima facie, and she does exhibit some misunderstanding of the role of a delegate, Reardon would probably be the most suited to argue a case for Buffalo. White, an advocate of both Women’s Third World and Caucuses is equally qualified. An amiable woman w.Jiose personality will serve her well at SASU meetings, White is also insightful and aware of the reality of the times. Her statements that cuts are a fact of life and must be dealt with, conveys this feeling. Winkler, who preaches student involvement in SA§U through education, is also an excellent choice. The most prepared of all candidates, Winkler is armed with a long list of ideas to be aired at SASU conferences. Although he is wary of caucuses, we feel he could work well and profitably with White and Reardon, and their combined forces should offer students here a strong voice. While we have chosen these three as our fighting force, we by no means wish to discredit the remaining candidates, all of whom are viable and talented. Mike Schwartz, a reasonable alternative, voiced many good points but perhaps lacks some of the polish student of a required representative. Allen Clifford, who has done a creditable job as Jewish Student Union (JSU) President, preaches the strength of group effort. Alan Stein describes apathy as student government's biggest problem a valid case, but practical more he needs experience. Wednesday. 23 February 1977 The Spectrum . Page five . �Correction Guest Opinion In an article appearing in the February 18 issjue of The Spectrum the South Korean dictatorship of Park Chung-hee was incorrectly described as being supported by American corporate dollars. It should have read American tax dollars. by The Indian Student Association Well, they have done it again! The Indian Peoples Association of North America, which takes its cues from the Peking regime, is again quoting age old slogans from their little red books. This deliberate attempt at distorting facts cannot go unchallenged. Perhaps, one can forgive them as they are not in touch with Indian problems, but then again they never were! They skillfully attempt to conceal their close alliance with the infamous Communist Party of India. One can never forget their brazen betrayal during India s fight for National Independence! It is hard to believe that the same would have India’s interest at heart. While under the guise of a “progressive” and “legitimate” organization, they camouflage their real allegiance to our neighbor. Being masters of northern deception (I.P.A.N.A.) certainly should be commended for doing a professional job of slanting facts. It is time to set the record straight and put things in their proper Archie Bunker arguments To the Editor. In response to Henry Senefelder’s tirade against draft resistors (February 14th) I’d like to express a few sentiments that are seldom expressed publicly., perhaps out of a need to be polite to such people as Henry Senefelder. Senefelder brands draft resistors as leeches and spares us nothing in undermining them. But how can one really blame a person who doesn’t want to risk his life for his country? At 18, a young man has many good years ahead of him. Why should he want to put an abrupt end to them? 1 am fortunate enough to be guaranteed a draft exemption because of my height. However, if any one person told me that 1 must risk my life for him, I’d tell that person what he can do with himself. The fact that American blood was spilled and prisoners were inhumanly tortured can readily be explained. You see, Mr. Senefelder, when there is a war these things will tend to happen. Blood has also been spilled at Stalingrad and who can fprget the good Nazi soldiers who were subject to. immense torture in Russian prison campus? If, out of a debt to those Americans killed in Vietnam, we should not pardon draft resistors, then perhaps we should condemn those Germans who refused to go along with Herr Hitler, out of a debt to those poor Nazi soldiers who fell at the hands of the Allies. As for Senefelder’s attack on Carter, it’s amazing how easily one can put the shoe on the other foot. What was originally said (and 1 agree 100%) is that Nixon’s crime is a lot more serious than that of any draft resistor and, hence, if Nixon is pardoned all draft resistors should be pardoned. Should Senefelder bring up the issue of bravery, I can tell him that it takes guts for one to stand up for his God-given right to live as long as possible. People who do Ujatdespite the threat of punishment deserve special Tefcbgnition. The cowards are those who go to Vietnam to fight, kill, and die in a war that they donlt believe in. I hope this reply lays to rest any more Archie Bunker type arguments from such people as Henry Senefelder. perspective. First, let us consider the goals of their brother organization. The Naxalites, which they have defended so vigorously in their article. They are in reality a puppet organization of Communist China whose only goal is subversion and forcible overthrow of the legitimate government. To say that they are a violent organization would be a gargantuan understatement! Nobody shall forget the unleashing of terror in Bengal and Andhra Pradesh a few years ago. Through indescriminate killings, they created an atmosphere of fear and chaos in the hearts of millions.

The l.P.A.N.A. refers nostalgically to the pre-June ’75 days (before the emergency) in India when all was supposedly •'peachy.’ They fail to mention the gravity of the situation before the emergency declaration. There existed a climate of violence; disrespect for and defiance of authority and contempt for constitutional propriety was built up which could only lead to chaos and anarchy. Certain opposition parties and leaders saw in these events an opportunity to achieve results that they could not hope to gain through normal constitutional means. In light of the campaign that had been waged during which there had been repeated acts of violence and sabotage of railway and tellicommunication installations, the Government of India could no longer ignore these pointers towards chaos. The proclamation of emergency succeeded in easing the tension and restoring calm throughout the country. There was a welcome recognition of the value of discipline, hard work, administrative efficiancy and. social progress. Peace returned to the university campus. Self-appointed student leaders were deprived of their capacity to create mischief. Examinations were conducted in an orderly manner and the pernicious practice of cheating was eliminated. The Government of India was keen that the new sense of national purpose should be harnessed to 3 speedief promotion of economic growth and social justice. If they would examine facts and refrain from attacking personalities, they too would realize the truth. In attacking these needed changes, the I.P.A.N.A. reveals its true colors.

This letter is in reference to the letter to the editor in Monday’s The Spectrum. The letter called the New York City students going to U.B. snobs. First of all most of the New Yorkers going to U.B. are not snobs. I have not figured out what they are but they are definitely not snobs; I grew up in New York all my life and the students at this school from New York could easily be mistaken for native Buffalonians. New York is the cultural capital of the world and aside from movies offers its people at least seventy-five other cultural events that people in Buffalo have never even heard of. I was furtunate that I did not have to grow up in Buffalo and being a New Yorker I know that you epople have missed out on quite a bit of exposure to not only cultural things but also you’ve missed out on an experience that aside from New York and maybe Los Angeles not many individuals experience in their youth. People make their own lives and just being exposed to culture does not make one cultured but it does help. If you think that the idiotic films that are shown on this campus are from New York, you’re mistaken. The truly cultural films and the new films will not be shown in Buffalo because the people who order many of the films do not want to take the chance to get these films. In Greenwich Village there is more to go and see than in the entire county. Many people complain about the late night life in New York and the rush, rush all the time. I love the rush, rush of New York rather than the cabin fever I get up here. I am not trying to put Buffalo down but one must face facts. There are a wide variety of places anyone can live. Buffalo has its good points too. The snow is one of them and another one is Mayor Makowski. Where else would people vote for and elect such an intelligent individual. Buffalo also has a greater amount of one thing than New York. It’s rare to find out west but Buffalo, beats New York in potholes. One good point in Buffalo is the news however. ! can t wait to watch Channel 7 News this week and see how the Buffalo Sabres wives live. That should really be good. Well thats about it. Every place has both good and bad to offer but don’t knock New York because one day when you want to see what life really has to offer you you might want to go there. Ronald Russo �Wrestling champs. will sideline him indefinitely. After winning his two opening round matches by the identical scores of 14-ll,Tundo went head to head against Colgate’s Scott Perkins. With the match tied at 4-4, the two matmen squared off in Overtime. When time expired and the two grapplers once again tied, the official remained awarded the victory to Perkins. Surprised and flustered, Tundo 'stated, “Can you believe that? I should have beaten Perkins but it’s over,”- he explained. “The official awarded him (Perkins) the victory because he had an overall riding time of twenty seconds. I later found out that if he had less than fifteen seconds, I would have won.”. — Tundo disheartened Tragedy continued to follow Tundo. In his next match against Albany’s Vic Gagliardi, Tundo ended regulation time with a 13-13 tie. Once again in overtime, Tundo was disheartened. The unable was to sophomore continue wrestling because of an injury, and therefore lost the match, 4-2. “1 tried to reverse him, but he grabbed my leg and kept on pulling,” commented Tundo. “The official should have warned him (Gagliardi). He pulled harder and 1 heard a loud snap . . . 1 dropped to the ground and held my knee in pain.” fifth place, Capturing sophomore Gary Devin (150) performance his termed “disappointing.” In his four matches, Devin was able to pin two of his opponents, while holding the short end of the stick in the other two matches. In his final match, Devin lost a close decision to St. Lawrence’s Gene Smith. “I should have done better,” said Devin. “On any given day, anybody can win.” Anderson sloppy Receiving a bye in the opening round co-captain Kirk Anderson (158) handedly defeated his next opponent 10-3. Knocking heads against Cortland’s Rich Armstrong next; Anderson “underestimated that guy.” Nipping Armstrong by the final tally 8-7, Anderson commented, “I was very sloppy. I gave away too many points.” — ' tn the final round, Anderson Mitch faced St. Lawrence’s Brown. Terming it a “bad match,” Anderson lost 5-3 because of the obvious stalling tactics used by the victorious Saints matman. Besides Pfeifer, the Bulls other New York State Champion is co-captain Bob Martineck (167), As the lone senior on the Buffalo squad, Martineck secured his second consecutive championship crown in four easy matches. each of his Manhandling went Martineck opponents, against Oswego’s Paul Corley in the final round. With a final score of 19-7, Martineck drained the floundering Laker. When the season first began, Martineck wrestled at 150 but eventually moved back to his accustomed weight class of 167. “If 1 could have stayed at 150, I —continued from page 1— • would have had a better shot at the Nationals than I do at 167,” said Martineck. But the captain added, “By making weight at 150, I was losing some of my strongth. It was in my best interest to go back up.” can NEWMAN CENTER MASSES ASH WEDNESDAY MASSES Main St. Campus 12 Noon Room 339 Norton 7:00 pm Cantalician Center 3233 Main Street - it, brings people Miohael is correct in his assessment. Adversity has brought the Bulls together. A new wave of confidence now surrounds the Bulls of ’77. “I have confidence in myself and the rest of the team,” announced co-captain Anderson. He added, “I plan on going to Oklahoma (site of the NCAA Championships fo,r 1977), me and some of the guys have our plane and hotel reservations already. My goal is to be an All-American this year.” To reach Oklahoma, the Bulls will have to each place first or second at the Eastern Wrestling Championships next week. “Everyone is looking forward to the League Championship, that’s what counts. Em gong to win it,” commented Pfeifer. “We’re all coming together; we’re wrestling as a team, not as individuals,” explained Tundo. Mitchell added, “When one of us started doing well, everyone started to do well. Now we have momentum.” Last year, the Bulls sent only one grappler to the National NCAA Championships. This year, the team is optimistic that more Bulls will qualify for National competition. “The team has a better chance this year at the league championship,” said Martineck. “We could possibly send four guys. We’re just coming around; everyone’s getting their Junior Dave Mitchell (177) continued to wrestle ferociously as he has in his last eleven matches. Mitchell has won nine while tying one of those eleven matches. At State the Championship, Mitchell opened up the competition with a pin. He followed with victories of 3-1 and 7-5. In his final contest, Mitchell suffered a minor elbow injury which cost him the championship title, by losing 11-8 to Potsdam’s Bob Wolf. “He (Wolf) worked on my elbow pretty good,” said Mitchell, Commenting on his recent success, Mitchell stated, “1 had to do something right. Now I realize that going from junior college (o major college is tough, but 1 had to live up to the expectations of coach Michael; he didn’t recruit me for nothing.” As of late, another Bull has victory the jump'ed on bandwagon. Junior Jeff Wheeler started the 'll campaign at the. 167 weight class, but after being moved up to 190, Wheeler has finally found a home for himself. Wheeler opponents, Stunning in third the state placed championship. After receiving a bye in the opening round, Wheeler then pinned his next opponent. Michael elated Michael was elated with his team’s performance. “The boys did very well, some could have done better,but 1 was quite surprised with the performance of others.” Michael attributes his to team’s recent success consistency, but he added, “Early in the year we had some bad breaks and it affected us as a team. But adversity for those that survive together. Mitchell recruited Wheeler intimidated In his third match, Wheeler was defeated 4-0 by Cortland’s Bob Menz, but he came back to Oswego’s Steve overwhelm Toplovich 15-5 and Colgate's Mike Morel 8-2, to nail down the third place trophy. “It’s about time 1 got going,” said Wheeler. “At the beginning of the year, I was a little afraid. Transferring from a small school, I was intimidated by wrestling against Penn State and Pittsburgh. It was a mental problem, and I’ve resolved it.” As the final competing grappler on the Buffalo squad, Rich Bopp the heavyweight opened up competition with a major upset. heavyweight Against the champion from St. Lawrence, Dave Hudson, Bopp wrestled a nip and tuck battle all the *way, eventually winning 12-10. After winning his next bout 8-3, Bopp unfortunately lost his remaining two contests to the superior grapplers from Colgate and Oneonta, but was still able to qualify for fifth place. • act together. About now, most guys are reaching their peak” Sophomore Oliveri said it best. “The storm may have been bad for Buffalo, but it’s been great for Since the storm, we’ve been consistent.” Anderson more us. - added, “We weren’t that bad, we just happened to wrestle the best schools. We had to improve, our schedule was so tough.” Michael doesn’t want to look too far ahead, but rather take each match as it comes. This Saturday at 2 p.m., the Bulls will be hosting the Red Machine of Cornell at Clark Hall. According to Michael, “Cornell is a young and developing team. It should be a good wrestling meet.” Statistics box Basketball at Cleveland State, February 19. Cleveland State 89, Buffalo 60.

Women’s basketball defeatsBonaventure by Jeff John Staff Writer Spectrum Buffalo’s women’s basketball team hosted a determined squad from St. Bonaventure University and gallantly fought to a 62-52 victory Sunday afternoon in Clark Hall. The game lifted Buffalo’s record to 2-7 and may well mark a Bulls’ in the turning point otherwise less than impressive season, Coming into the game, St. Bonaventure boasted a four game winning streak, which was a stark contrast to Buffalo’s own streak, a string of five losses. contest St. Before the Boriaventure’s coach, Mary Jane Telford, assessed the two teams. “f feel the teams are pretty well matched. I don’t really expect any single aspect of Buffalo’s game to trouble us especially since there is no height differential.” The Bonnies may have gone the game with more into confidence than the Bulls, but Buffalo coach Liz Cousins had a few surprises for them. Starting the game with a new lineup, and substituting Cousins freely. encouraged her team to penetrate more on offense. Gradually the Bulls began to look more and more at home on the court. The game appeared as if it would be a defensive see-saw battle until midway, through the first half when freshman Anna Eng soared high in the air to score on a lay-up. The bucket put Buffalo in front 12-9 and established their first tangible lead of the game, a lead the Bulls would not relinquish throughout the remainder of the contest. Led by the accurate shooting of co-captain Clyde O’Malley, Buffalo stretched its lead to 22-12 and went on to enjoy a half-time edge of 28-20. During the opening minutes of the St. the second half, Bonaventure . coach commented, “Buffalo is playing very well so we’ll try to go inside more. Defensively we’re going to switch to a formation where we can press sooner.” The Bonnetts’ strategy gradually paid off as Buffalo’s lead was narrowed down to 48-43 with only seven minutes left toplay. At this point Cousins called a time out. St. Bonaventure’s zone hindering was Buffalo’s press offensive patterns, so Cousins changed to counter it. The ploy worked as Buffalo surged to a 60-46 lead, during the next few minutes. The swift feet of forwards Paula Hills and Barb Fislar hindered the Bonnies’ scoring efforts while freshman Gabi Gray, sophomore Regira Frazier and O’Mauey continued to put points on the board.. Althougn out-performed at the free-throw line, a well balanced team effort enabled Buffalo to clinch the victory. “My kids really hustled today,” said Cousins. “Everybody played and We’ve overcome contributed. some problems but I’m still not happy with our defense.” The improving Bulls plan to work on defense this week in practice as they sharpen up for Four important Big the Tournament which will be held at Buffalo State this coming Friday and Saturday.

Vice-President for Assistant Finance-and Management William H. Baumer said that there will be action taken this week to change the structure of the telephone service received by student groups this week.. This week the University will begin work with the New York Telephone Company to change student group phone numbers on the Main Street Campus to the 831-5400 to 831-5599 block. Organizations like Sunshine House and the Pharmacy will still be able to receive incoming calls on their present phone numbers, because of the emergency nature of their difficulty and the services involved in informing people of their new phone numbers. The next phase of action still has not been finalized. Either all student groups will have access to one tie-line trunk line (allowing only one tie-line call at a time by all student groups) or several of the larger organizations will have phones with tie line access going through the Amherst Campus (636) exchange. The smaller organizations would then have to use for their long distance Monday, 21 February 1977 State University of New York at Buffalo 56 calling. This plan for several different allows student groups to have tie-line access at the same time while the first one does not. The Student Association will take action on the second plan and a decision is expected in the next few days. problem, Baumer The said at a meeting with student representatives last Thursday, was access to the tie-lines on the Main Street Campus. Several attempts were made to ease the problem, he indicated, including placing a 90 second limit on the amount of time a tie-line can be kept on hold and the disconnecting of tie-line calls after 20 minutes. While these alternatives are on the already being used Amherst Campus with its more modern telephone equipment, the switching electro-mechanical equipment on the Main Street Campus is not sophisticated enough to handle these service demands. Baumer said in examining tie-line usage, student groups were using the tie-lines very heavily, and that there was “good reason to believe some students were abusing them.” While no calls have been taped or monitored for determination on this campus, Baufner revealed that simply by watching the switchboard on the Main Street Campus it was determined that student groups very heavily use the service. The situation became serious enough that by the middle of the fall semester there was a need to change student access to tie-lines, Baumer indicated. He said that on some SUNY campuses tie-lines are provided only to administrators and on many other campuses only a few student groups have access, to tie-lines. The availability problem on this campus is such that the Office of the President and the Admissions and Records Office have extensions of Amherst Campus phones to guarantee the needed availability of the service. The change issue was “shotgunned” according to Baumer when the state Office of General Services found an incident of heavy tie-line abuse by at this graduate students University. A proposal Was made at the Thursday meeting to have New York Telephone monitor' the tie-line calls made from the Main Street Campus to determine concretely how many student calls are made on the line. This proposal was nixed by the telephone company, according to Baumer, because the equipment on the Main Street Campus could not readily accommodate such a service. The problem with the tie-line is not exclusively one of access; it is also one of funds. A December by circulated Vice memo President for Finance and Management E.W. Doty said that many people believe that the tie-lines are simply leased from Telephone the York New Company on a full time basis and that use in the off (non-business) hours generates no additional cost to the state. Every call, however, except those to state offices in Albany, generates a message unit or toll call charge. Baumer said that many people at this University, including staff and faculty, felt the tie-lines were the same as unrestricted local phones. This is certainly not the case, he said, adding that when to tie-line calls are made infrequently called areas they must often travel over commercial lines for a long distance and thereby incur heavy long distance charges. by Danny Parker Spectrum Staff Writer Student Thursday’s Association (SA) meeting in Farber 144 was bogged down with technical and arguments constitutional conflicts. The two issues that stirred emotions at the meeting were the demands by Donna Thompson to be reinstated as a Senator and by Ed Guity to retain his vote and position as SA Minority Affairs Coordinator. According to the SA constitution, absence from two consecutive SA meetings without proxy results in an automatic dismissal from the position of senator. missed two Thompson but consecutive meetings, contended she had a proxy present for the second meeting, and therefore should not have been dismissed. A final exam was the cause of her absence from the second meeting. But SA Vice President Steve Spiegel asserted that Thompson did not have a proxy, and therefore argued his decision not to accept her excuse was not arbitrary. Rather, Spiegel claimed,hhe was just following the rules. Guity handed in a letter of resignation approximately one month ago that was not officially accepted, and confusion resulted between Spiegel and SA President Steve Schwartz at the meeting regarding Guity’s status. Guity claimed he had withdrawn his resignation and therefore retained his position and voting rights. Athletic guarantee The greatest controversy was generated ,over a referendum proposed by members of the University Athletic Commission that calls for an allocation of funds to an Athletic Governance Board for a fixed amount over a four-year period. But the lack of a Steven Schwartz ,uorum ended the discussion, leaving the decision entirely up to Schwartz. The allocation would improve the athletic program here, and guarantee that both the University of Buffalo Foundation and the Alumni Association will also supply motley for athletics. However, questions were raised SA would concerning how account for such an allocation, how this .outlay would affect other clubs, and how the money itself would be allocated. business, other the In endorsements of SA candidates were discussed and a motion to disallow all club endorsements was passed by a 24-2 margin. Schwartz pointed out that many of the endorsements are not conducted in a fair manner and —continued on page 2— Approximately of the Company 2100 employees National Fuel Gas walked out on strike The Thursday. striking employees are represented by two locals, numbers 2154 and 2199 of last the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (AFL—CIO).

The motion reads, “It should be the duty of the Financial Assembly to apply these priorities in the production of the budget.” This caused Senator Paul Maggiotto to become outraged that the budget could reflect the results of a survey that may or may not accurately reflect the student’s priorities. He was the specifically annoyed by implication that the survey results could be binding, although both Schwartz and Spiegel assured him this was not the case. An intended discussion about the Black Student Union (BSU) audit did not take place because too many people left the meeting, and a quorum could not be constituted.

Frye told The Spectrum that before his vote last year, Asante had assured him he would receive his full support. However, at a faculty meeting in which Asante introduced a resolution that would allow him to pick all of the chairman for the department’s various academic committees, Frye announced that he would “resign rather than work in an undemocratic department.” Frye said that he refused to support Asante’s attempts to lower the academic standards of the graduate program and spoke out against Asante’s refusal to accept the recommendations of the departments Admissions and Standards Committee. Asante reportedly told Frye that the reason he could not support him was that his research and teaching were weak and that he was of no benefit to the department. “Why did he accept two of my articles for publication in his own journals,” Frye said. “The only reason that he not be I recommended reappointed was because I no longer supported his policies.” (NEXT TO LAUNDROMAT) UNISEX PRECISION • judgment. Faculty members charge that Asante has continually ignored committee decisions on departmental standards, and have described his chairmanship as “autocratic, creating an almost paranoid atmosphere within the department.” On one occasion involving professor, another Asante received a condemnation from the Faculty Senate for his violation of the professors’ rights. He is currently being sued for libel by that professor. An independent Personal Committee of the Social Sciences Faculty has reviewed professors both cases and recommended that they be reappointed. Provost Butler disagreed and supported Asante’s decision. original The final determination will be made by Vice President Bunn. Bunn said in an interview that he has to make decisions on specific individuals and that he must resolve some questions of the future of the department. He said that his decision would come “shortly” and that he was concerned over problems of academic standards and the overall goverance of the strife ridden department. Under President Ketter’s retrenchment policies last year, Speech the Communication Department lost one Faculty line by this coming June. Sources speculated that Bunn has many options. “He can support Asante and fire Frye and Gantz, or he can not reappoint another faculty member that Asante supported,” one individual commented. Another theory was that Bunn would appoint a high level administrator to take over the department and thus avoid asking Asante to resign. \ : J • - • J LAYER CUTS 20% OFF for appointment please -Q36-07772 STYLING TO SUIT YOUR BUDGET!

Ultimately, this lack of a “pre-law” department can lead to much confusion about Law School requirements. The Pre-Law Society is here to help. The Society sponsors freshman seminars that explain admission requirements. Students are taught how to set up files with the University’s law professor Jerome Fink and how tp solicit recommendations from professors. Most importantly, the Society prepares them for the LSAT’s. “The society and myself are complementary to each other,” says Fink. “We’re here for a service,” comments Richard Cohen, president of the Pre-Law Society. The society prepares students for the LSAT by providing an environment similar to that of the test. Students learn their weak and strong testing points. The society has a number of projects for the next year to set in motion. Lawyers from the Erie Bar Association are scheduled to lecture on the different facets of the law profession. Another project is the publication of a handbook, compiled by University law students, that reveals their own admission statistics. Hopefully, this should save application costs. The society hopes to eventually set up community internships for pre-law students. “ STUDENT AFFAIRS TASK FORCE Meeting Wednesday, Feb. 23 at 4 pm Room 234 Norton Hall :*;3 •**v Only applies to high risks Swine flu vaccine reinstated to combat a new virus strain by Gabriele Pohlenz Spectrum Staff Writer The swine flu vaccination, which was halted on December 16 because of correlated side effects, is now back on the market. The ban was lifted after a new influenza type that has already surfaced was found to require the same vaccine used to combat the swine flu. The Victoria influenza type A is similar to the swine flu. Isolated first in Australia in 1975, it has the same characteristics as other influenzas such as muscle ache and high temperature. The incubation period, however, is between 12 and 48 very short hours. The Victoria A virus is classified as a myxovirus a kind of virus that has an affinity for mucoproteins, such as the fluids secreted by nasal, oral and respiratory mucous membranes. Therefore it spreads easily through sneezing and coughing. Another characteristic of the Victoria A virus is its ever — — SclutiimeiiteM Ski Club Announces a Winter Weekend at: STOWE Feb. 25 Dates: EARLY SEASON SPECIALS! 27 — It is changing symptoms. especially hard to Control the disease because these changes fool the immune system. Many people who were partially immune to last year’s Port Chalmers type (a different form of Victoria A) are not able to resist infections of the new type. The result can be an unexpected high mortality rate. There is one reason to fear the 1976-1977 influenza season; the major shifts occur every ten years. The last shift was in 1968, indicating that we are nearing the end of a ten year cycle. The Victoria flu killed about 20,000 people during the 1975-76 flu season. The influenza virus of 1918-19, which caused a world-wide epidemic, appears similar to the Victoria A virus. Since the 1918 virus was not isolated, there is no absolute proof that it is the same virus. However, its similarity to the 1918 virus indicates an extreme danger. At present there are two kinds of vaccines available to the public. A Trip Indues: 2 days of skiing at Stowe 2 nights lodging at the Ski Hostel Lodge Meals (Breakfast Dinner) Tax & Tips & Cost: $ 80.00 4 per. per room - $ 85.00 2 per. per room (first come first served) . 65 years and those with chornic diseases, that contains both Victoria A and swine flue viruses. The other vaccine is given to the general population and contains only the swine flu virus. The spectacular side effects of the swine flu vaccination program allegedly included the death of a number of elderly people in Pittsburgh and the temporary paralysis which helped bring the program to its end. However, Kris Young, an employee at the Erie County Office Building, stressed that the persons who died after the swine flu shot died of heart attacks which were accentuated by anxiety. “There was no real organic connection between the shot and the death of these persons,” she contended. Public Health officials have said the effects of the new program will be minimal. Until now the virus of the Victorian flu has not been isolated in Erie County. Presently, there is no acute danger, although public health officials expect some infection in the near future. The hot, dry air in many households during winter, combined with the cold weather outside, weakens the defense mechanism of the body and increases its susceptibility to the flu. At present, there is no official vaccination program in Erie County even though the moratorium was lifted over one month ago, because no single flu vaccine is available. The shot is only given to persons who belong to the high-risk group. No mass clinics have as yet been organized, but future development of such clinics is imminent. — LEATHERS Jackets Pants Vests SCHOTT BROS REED FIDELITY EL TORO Famous Brands Discounted WASHINGTON SURPLUS CENTER "Tent City" * * * , Page four The Spectrum .

Environmental The regulations in question concerned the high level of noxious emission contributing to air pollution in the area. The federal Environmental Protection Agency has found the State’s plan to meet federal air quality standards inadequate. New York had already been given a two-year extension to meet federal standards that other states were required to meet in 1975. The DEC had thus proposed several modifications of existing state environmental laws, particularly the adoption of controversial Part 216. Part 216 contains more restrictive standards than current regulations of many steel and iron-making operations, stressing that the best available technology should be used in emissions control. The level of allowable emissions under present law is 0.05 grains of particulates/ft. cubed; the proposed level is 0.03. Jobs more important Afte; the DEC made its opening statement, public testimony began. Erie County Executive Edward Regan, along with deputy mayor Les Fascio, stated they opposed “swift imposition of harsh regulations that would make the Buffalo steel industry uncompetitive.” Regan stated jobs are more important than clean air, warning of the unemployment the proposed regulations would create. Raymond Gallagher, Chairman pf the Erie County Legislature, called clean air a “noble goal,” but added, “In the' rush to improve the environment, common sense has been omitted.” Roger P. Penny, Superintendent of Environmental Control at Bethlehem Steel’s Lackawanna plant, expressed fear that these regulations were only the state’s initial effort to seriously impair the steel industry. He added that Bethlehem knew exactly what the required new equipment would cost them ($18 million), but did not know what results the new equipment will Upon questioning, Penny’s produce. statement left the accuracy of Bethlehem’s test methods much in doubt. Higher priority Environmentalists did not go unheard, however. Dr. Lester Milbraith, director of the Environmental Studies Center at this University, presented the results of a survey of environmental perceptions and beliefs held by the community and its officials. The study proved that most of the public gave higher priority to the environment than to jobs, desiring a nation that consumed less and stopped growing. Dr. Beverly Paigan of the Erie County Council Management Environment described the costs of air pollution to the community in terms of cancer incidence and the deterioration of the city landscape. She found the proposed regulations, “ideally satisfactory,” and while “rule 216 won’t attain all desired levels, it should be implemented as a start.” Paigan specifically attacked Penny’s testimony for Bethlehem, questioning their use of outdated equipment, as well as the validity of their tests. After the hearing, she said to Penny, “You are the only step between us and clean air.” Repugnant Dr. Richard Tobin, a political science professor here, declared that the federal government should apply its stringent food and medicine standards to the air. He sharply criticized the anti-environmentalists who had testified earlier, describing Regan’s statements as “utterly repugnant.” Two University students, John Ziegler and Pam Gibson, testified in favor of the proposed regulations, along with several University Placement Career seminars planned by David Malat Staff Writer Spectrum slightly changed from last year’s. The groups will be more individualized, more specific with an emphasis not only on academic major but the field itself The University Placement and Career Guidance office will be sponsoring a series of career seminars next month, desigend to answer any questions a student might have about his major or professional career preferences. According to career guidance counselor Arthur Burke, basic problems and questions students have are not unique. Some of the more common problems are lack of information on careers and majors. Misinformation, an inability to market their education and even what tests they should take. “If we get a student early enough, they know of a variety of alternatives open to them and are more capable of making a decision. They need a more open awareness of possibilities in their fields,” he explained. English useful A recent College Placement Council study questioned Engineering and English majors about the relevency of their degree ten years later. The result was that the English majors found their degree more relevant than the engineers. The engineers lacked the skills needed to write up their reports, while a larger portion of English majors had skills they needed for their careers. The seminar programing was organized with information compiled by a questionaire. Entering freshman received a card in their orientation packet that asked them to respond to questions regarding their desired vocational guidance information on any field. The format for this year’s seminars will be Burke said. Last year’s seminars were conducted in three different sessions for each major. They would have a practitioner from the field one day, a graduate student the next, and finally a member of that department to speak to the students. This year, all the speakers are going to participate in the same seminar Geared to needs The Student Association pre-professional groups will be asked for help in the seminars. These people will discuss the job market situation, sources of information available to students, the minimum cumulative grade needed for a department and what a student dan do wfith a degree. As was done last year, there will be a question and answer period immediately following the speakers. The seminars are geared to freshman and sophomores, but are open to all. At the end of each session there will be an evaluation questionnaire to be completed by the participants. It is intended to serve as a guide for next year’s seminars. There are also plans to randomly select participants and interview them personally for more in-depth review and feedback. These will evaluate the content, speakers, and answers of each topic. A letter is going out to all freshmen with the seminar schedule. Resident advisors in the dorms will also be distributing them. The schedules will be posted in the departments on campus as well as the Backpage of The Spectrum and The Reporter. For further information, please contact 831-5291. / others. A Bethlehem steel worker argued against 216, saying, “We’ll take a bellyful of smoke anytime if you’ll give us three square meals to wash it down.” Another the spokesman against regulations proposed that nothing be done, lest the state implement unnecessarily harsh standards. Finally, a Lackawanna resident noted the effects of the steel industry’s emissions on breathing, health, clothing, and houses. She vividly described the “foul smelling fumes and dust” and the filth of Lackawanna. The DEC will sponsor several more public hearings across the state before deciding whether-these regulations to meet current Federal Air Quality Standards will be implemented. Leadership change key to seminar A number of important changes has taken place in the international arena since the signing of the Shanghai Communique by former U.S. President Richard Nixon, and the late Chinese Premier Chou En-lai on February 28, 1972. In China, we have witnessed the passing away of Premier Chou En-lai, Chu Teh, Chairman of the People’s Congress, and most important Mao Tse-tung, .Chairman of the Communist Party'of China. Subsequently, Hua Kuo-feng was elected Chairman of Party in October 1976, followed by a mass, nation-wide struggle against four leading members of the Pdliburo, pamely, Wang Hung-wen, Chang Chun-chiao, Yao Wen-yuan and Chiang Ching, the widow of late Chairman Mao. In the United States, Richard Nixon resigned as President, as a result of the Watergate episode, and Jimmy Carter was elected as President after his victory over Gerald Ford in the national election of November, 1976. As a result of drastic changes in leadership in both countries, a considerable amount of speculation has arisen in the United States over the prospect of normalization of relations between the two nations, Furthermore, a sizable magnitude of interest has also been aroused in this country over what has gone on in China since the passing away of Chairman Mao. Conjectures, speculations, exaggerations and even imaginations on the purge of the “gang of four” in China have manifested themselves in numerous U.S. papers and journals, which very often present grossly incorrect pictures of what is actually taking place in China. We, therefore, feel that it is appropriate at this time to convene a public seminar on recent developments in the People’s Republic. At the same time, we will utilize this opportunity to examine the possibility of normalization of relations between China and the United States.

Among the groups vying for their share of student fees returned to them in services was the commuters. Sub Board's answer was to purchase space in The Spectrum every other Friday for a commuter-oriented column, “The Commuter Viewpoint.” This space was given to the co-editors of the previous year’s commuter newspaper, Commuter Comment. Rick Birdsall and Cheryl McNerney had proven their ineptness at handling such responsibility with Commuter Comment which they used as their own personal voice to air their own personal gripes rather than as a force to make commuters aware of what services were available to them, or should be made available to them. These two people continue to waste your money by writing personal, useless drivel twice monthly in Friday issues of The Spectrum paid for by Sub Board. Commuters deserve more than this.

M. Bork Not bullpen satisfied To the Editor. Copies of this letter are being sent to over 200 alternative newspapers throughout the world. The population increase, and the continuation of the arms race demand that action be taken during the next few decades to prevent a nuclear war. The only solution to the complex problem of the arms race is social transformation. The social and economic systems must be transformed during the centuries ahead. This letter is calling for a world-wide organization to bring about this goal. The idea is to construct a new social system working within the present civilization. 1 am interested in constructing a society in the world similar to the Kibbutz Communities in Israel. My idea is for a co-ed dormitory housing about six hundred people of about the same age. Each person would have a separate room. There would be a common library and a common dining room. There would be sports facilities surrounding the dorm. Children would be brought up in nurseries or dorms near the parents’ dorm. There would be an international organization to supervise the construction. The dormitories would be located near cities so that people could commute daily for work. A portion of the individual income would be contributed to the international organization. Please reply whether or not you are interested to acknowledge that you received this letter. If you are interested, then a letter will be sent to you at a later date to acknowledge your letter and to relay information of any new developments in the organization. Robert B. McCoglan P.O.

Almost half of the University community is made up of individuals from the New York City area. I have never met a New Yorker who did not consider himself to be culturally superior to the “typical Buffalonian”. My question is this; Where were these culturally superior individuals last year, when good campus films, unavailable in any American public theatre, were being shown? 1 attended a good number of these- often with fellow-proVlncials, It is a known fact that SA is dominated by. out-of-town students, unhampered by the responsibilities many commuters have (home, work, etc.). One must then assume that the current garbage now being shown in campus theatres was selected by “City intellectuals.” Since September 1 have attended one weekend campus film “Steppenwolf.” As for the others, I have no interest in chain-gangs, monsters, cops-and-robbers, or Fritz the Cat. This may be due to the culturally deprived geographical area in which I grew up. It may also be due to the fact that what is needed is less New York provincial snobbery (which assumes infallibility) and more serious thought about which movies belong on a University campus.

To the Editor: As regular attenders of UB basketball games we feel we have a big complaint to make. We don’t think we’re getting our moneys worth (the games are free)’ The main reason is coach Leo Richardson. We believe Mr. Richardson is most responsible for the team’s 3-19 record. We think the reason for keeping Richardson as head coach is that the athletic department is afraid firing him would look like a prejudiced move. The team definitely has talent but it is not being used right. On the court both the offense and defense seem to have no organization. It is very rare to see an open man within 20 feet of the basket because no plays are ever called. Against Akron he had a lineup of four guards 6’2” or shorter in at one time. This might be good if he wanted to run the ball but we couldn’t do that because we couldn’t get a rebound. Againt Temple with a 3 point lead he benched his best player and hot man for about five minutes for no apparent reason. He rarely argues with an official of yells instructions from the bench and has poos judgment in calling his time-outs.

Richard Allen Mark A. Davis SHORTAGE Andy Lipkin Don Christie The blessing of ignorance To the Editor. I was quite surprised to read H. Hausman’s letter to the editor on Wednesday, February 16, 1977, entitled, “The PLO Alternative.” It seems to me that Mr. Hausman is not only a frustrated individual, but also suffers from a weak memory and historical distortion. Of all the issues that are facing the American people at this point, he could not find any of them worth writing about, so the PLO became the subject of his frustration. He cited all the colonial powers and their institution at the time, the League of Nations, in proving the legitimacy of the creation of the state of Israel. By his logic, he tried to cancel any national, political, or civil rights to the Palestinians. On the other hand, he tried to prove that the PLO or the Palestinian peoples’ claim to those rights is a negation of Israeli rights. What a contradiction!! He went even farther by quoting a non-existing Lebanese newspaper, and by inventing a name “Al-Anwar.” He hoped that at least the misinformed reader would be able to enjoy the blessing of his ignorance.

The Bulls won the opener, 6-5, when Ray “Tuffy” Gruarin scored with four seconds remaining in regulation time, to foil a heroic comeback by the Foresters. The second game was over in the first period, as Buffalo scored four times before Lake Forest tied their skates. Not knowing what to expect when the Foresters arrived at the Tonawanda Sports Center on Friday night, the Bulls weren’t sure what type of offensive and defensive styles to utilize. When the game started, however, it appeared that any style would do. Buffalo’s Jack Kaminska tallied with just 39 seconds gone, and linemate Rick Costello added to that six minutes later, taking a Gruarin pass off a two-on-one break, and drilling the puck behind goalie Buddy Fauteux. Jon Pratt scored for the 10:15, but at Foresters defenseman Carl sharpshooting Koeppel brought the Bulls’ lead back to two, when he rifled a power play slapshot into the net with 2:48 remaining in the period. Damaging injury Only two major incidents cocurred in a relatively quiet second period, although one of them may have been a factor in the final frame. Koeppel popped in another goal for Buffalo, but more importatnly one of the Foresters players sustained an injury, and seemingly sparked a light under the wilting Lake Forest candle. Buffalo’s Costello was charging up the left side of the ice after feeding the puck to a breaking Gruarin when he collided with the oncoming Bart Osgood of Lake Forest. Costello’s stick caught Osgood in the face, and the freshman winger went down to the ice. He lay motionless for nearly three minutes, before leaving for the hospital with a cut-up eye and nose. “I had just received a pass, and Tuffy was breaking up the middle,” explained Costello. “We hit as I let the puck go. It was unintentional. 1 was defending myself. I mean what do you do when you see someone charging at you? You defend yourself.” Although the play itself was purely accidental, when the third there was period opened something very deliberate about the Foresters’ play. They scored three times within one minute and four seconds, and the score was knotted at five with under a minute to play. Clutch goal It appeared that the game would go into overtime. But Tony Vesona’s hip check broke up a play in front of the Buffalo net with about 25 seconds left, and right wing Stu Campbell came out of the zone with the disc. He fed Kaminska breaking up the left side, who in turn found Gruarin cutting towards the Lake Forest net. With just four seconds remaining on the clock, Tuffy fired one through Fauteux’s pads, and the Bulls came out with the 6-5 victory. While it was Costello’s contention tha the injury to Osgood may have had something to do with the Lake Forest comeback, Buffalo assistant coach Mike Kelly had a technical explanation. “The defense was getting caught at the blueline,” said Kelly. “One man would get caught in deep with the other man at center ice, and bang, it’s in! It’s not that we weren’t doing the job, it’s that wasn’t done it completely.” Did the Bulls come into the game overconfident and perhaps underestimate the Foresters? “No, 1 don’t think we underestimated them. We knew they’d be a hard hitting team,” said the hard hitting Campbell. “They’re the first team to put a lot of pressure on us in a long time, we were kind of out of practice (in pressure games).” “We went out there very loose,” commented Costello. “We were loose but played well in the first. I don’t know what happened between the first and second periods.” According to Wright, that was a vast something improvement in the 1977 Forester skaters. “They are an improved club, but we didn’t know how much. I’d say that they’re 20% better than Oswego,” said the Buffalo mentor. “Lake Forest started the motor going out there.” ” A romp On Saturday there was no question as to which team was loose, improved, or running the motor. The Bulls were in the driver’s seat from the opening sportsqmz This week’s Sportsquiz is not recommended for mere amateurs. So don’t be disillusioned if wrong answers come your way. 1.

Mike Dixon and Ron Reisweber each had two goals for the Bulls, while Paul Pitman had a goal and three assists on the Buffalo back line. John Moore picked up his first shutout of the season, as he hendled 23 shots without a miscue. The most noticeable event of the evening, however, was a brawl between Chris Bonn and Tom Zweber of Lake Forest at 18:48 of the third period. The game had gotten chippy and scrappy once the Foresters realized that they were out of it, and things came to a head in the closing minutes. The play began when Buffalo’s five-foot-eight-inch center Frank Anzalone ran into some trouble with Zweber in front of the Forester bench. As Anzalone told it, “This guy, started bull-shitting with me, so the ref pulled me away. Bonn came in and got all cut up. Fireman (Bonn) showed me something by helping me out. Those guys would’ve eaten me up.” According to Bonn, someone pushed Anzalone from behind, so Bonn back. him pushed “Sometimes I just see red out there, and have to swing,” Bonn said. •Punching, rumbling, or skating, the Bulls totally demolished the Foresters. There were many reasons for the differences in the two games, and everyone had their own thoughts as to what those reasons were. Anzalone credited the penalty, killing of Brien Grow and Eddie Patterson, Moore felt it was an overall team effort, and Wright credited better forechecking and backchecking as the key. But Buffalo’s quotable coach saved the best for last. “The best difference,” said Wright, “was the score.” INTRAMURALS by Don Weiss Spectrum Staff Writer intramural The basketball schedule continues this week with some inportant games in the A league The Omen, in first place at 5—2 goes against Slombas, in third place at 4-2. Scott Minchman leads The Omen, who are coming off a close victory over the Social Forces this past week. Slombas, led by Steve Allen and Tom Romano, beat Captain Noodle (0—7) by one point last week to keep them in the race for first place. Also this week, Captain Noodle plays Chauncey Street, who are tied for first place at 5—2. Chauncey Street is a much improved team since early season. 6’2” forwards A1 Alperin and Dave Cichon lead the team which gpes into this game with a three game winning streak. In a big game last semester, Alperin scored 16 points to lead his team over The Omen. Eddie Rogan and Ricky Luft are also key players for Chauncey Street. In the third game Monday night, Murray (4-2), with Phil Procter, plays the Social Forces (2-5). Wednesday’s teams On Wednesday night, in a battle for first place, B.S.U. (5-2), plays Lippes Loop (5-2). B.S.U., with Gene Henderson and Otis Horne, are coming off a loss to the Converse All-Stars for the second time this year. The All-Stars (4-3) were led by the foul-shooting of center Roger Herman, and the scoring of guard Mark Golubow. Also starting in the backcourt is Richie Spinner, who takes over for the departed Hall “Foots” Tennin. Lippes Loop comes off an impressive win over Code 5 (3—4). The Loop is led by Jim Randall Jim both Slayton, and year’s ex-members of last championship intramural team, the Heads. Code 5, the leading defensive team in the division faces Flashbuck (4—3). Last week, Flashbuck beat the Boss Players by two points as center Steve Weiner scored 15 points, most of them in the second half. Steve Silber and Brian McCann scored 14 points each with newcomer John Trigillio adding 8 points. The Boss Players are a new addition to the league, after playing in the Sunday B league last semester. They feature former varsity player Ron McGraw. Thursday night, Wesley Wild Bunch continued its winning ways with its seventh straight viqtory. WWB is led by guard Rick Anthony, who has helped make his team the highest scoring team in the division with a 56.4 points per game average. This week, the Wild Bunch plays the Heads for first place. The Heads seem to be the only team able to challenge the Wild Bunch. The Heads feature guards Jim Corigliano and Tom Logan, and 6’8” center Ron Dahms. A new team to this division is Blue, a former B team. In the backcourt for Blue is Danny Zahn and Miguel Ramos, with George McGinnis and Julius Erving coming off the bench.

Buffalo vs. Canisius losers battle it out by Paige Miller Tonight the basketball Bulls will take on Main Street rival Canisius in their second Big Four contest of the year. And the match, which will begin at 8 p.m. at the Koessler Athletic Center, figures to be quite even, since the two teams have nearly identical, (albeit horrible) records: Buffalo is 3—18, while Canisius is 2—19. Canisius picked up their second win of the year Wednesday when they upset Colgate by two. Earlier, Colgate had beaten the Bulls by eleven. According to Buffalo coach Leo Richardson, the attitude on the team is very good. “I’ve been fortunate to keep them so high,” he said. However, a good attitude cannot eliminate mistakes, and after two consecutive overtime losses in a row, little mistakes look crucial. “We have to face facts,” Richardson said. “That’s what we’ve tried to do after every game. They know what happens if they had done a would have won. Little few things here and a few things there, we things here and there have cost us games.” - Buffalo stands tall Richardson analyzes tonight’s contest as being extremely close. “We may have an advantage. We have a little more height, and more experience. They have good guards,” Richardson said. One of those guards, diminutive Rene Stephens gave Buffalo an awful lot of trouble in the team’s meeting last year (a 99—66 Griffin win). But Buffalo’s guards, Ed Johnson and George Cooper have been playing very well lately. Up front, the Griffins are led by Dave Spiller and John Sommers, both of whom had high scoring games against Colgate. Buffalo’s forwards, on the other hand, have not been big scorers all year, but both Sam Robinson, at 6—6, and Lloyd DeVaux, at 6—4 have a height advantage over the 6—3 Spiller and the 6—2 Sommers. Buffalo center Sam Pellom, at 6-8, will also have a large height advantage over anyone the Girffins decide to use. Pellom also can score against bigger centers, so Canisius may have to be very careful on defense. Buffalo students will be admitted for one dollar if they have a valid student ID card.

These elections, which will be held on March 2, 3 and 4 will choose new SA officers and decide the fate of the student activity fee. The SA Senate was scheduled to decide whether or not to also include on the ballot a question calling for a slight raise in the fee to the legal limit of $70 a year from the present $67 charge. SA President Steven Schwartz supports the maintenance of the fee at its present level even though the additional funds would help fight inflationary cost increases. But he considers it hypocritical of the Student government to fight for lower tuition while at the same time asking for raises in its collections from the students at this University. Even if the Senate decides not to include the question on a fee increase, there will be a question on whether to continue the fee at all. According to Schwartz, this is necessary because of slight changes in the fee expenditure guidelines. The SUNY Board of Trustees has mandated fee referendums every four years at all SUNY campuses, he added. Helping cooperatives Schwartz indicated that the changes in the fee guidelines were concerned .with student services. He explained that organizations like Legal Services and book cooperatives can now legitimately receive fee money. Previously, funding for these organizations was considered questionable. The mandatory fee referendum will be the third such referendum since the spring of 1971. In the previous votes, the fee was approved by wide margins. The mandatory fee monies, which total $880 thousand, are used to support SA, which in turn distributes those funds to SA clubs, special interest organizations and Sub Board. The specific allocations are determined by the SA Senate in their annual budget hearings. The $67 fee is paid directly by the student to the bursar’s office and is regarded as a University expense. The University has the option of automatically expelling any student who refuses to pay the fee without going through the appropriate waiver procedure. All candidates will be required to attend a mandatory candidates meeting this afternoon in Room 233 Norton Hall. The order of name placement on the ballot, interview schedules for newspaper endorsements and clarification of any questions or problems that might have arisen will be determined at that time. First challenge According to SA Executive Vice President Steve Spiegel, there has already been a challenge to the existing rules and procedures of the election. He said that at a Wednesday meeting of the Elections and Credentials Committee, a question concerning the acceptability of running College Council candidates on the same ballot and with the same party endorsement of the other twelve candidates was raised by David Brownstein and Jim Storms. Spiegel added that the candidate on Brownstein’s party had decided to run independently and Storms felt if the College Council representative were on the same ballot as the other candidates, daytime students would have an unfair advantage in choosing a representative over night students. Spiegel commented that the College Council representative represents all students at the school, and the inclusion v of council candidates on the ballot for the 'daytime elections might lead to a larger participation of day students in the election. The Elections and Credentials Committee ruled that the College Council candidates will not be listed on the machine ballot, but instead will appear on a seperate paper ballot distributed at all polling places. The candidates will be allowed to accept or reject party designation. Spiegel explained that because one of the announced parties had already a declared council candidate, the committee felt a change in the rules after they had already been instituted was inappropriate.

Due to the large number of abandoned vehicles and the urgency of the. situation, the City did not have any' organized procedure for reporting to where 'the autos were towed. parked Cars in front of residential homes, and cars that were protruding put of the owner’s driveways were even towed.

That did not help the owners of these automobiles, when their cars would not start or they do not have access to a driveway or a parking lot. Cars that were towed from the University area were said to be dumped in such lots as Central Park Plaza, University Plaza, the golf course on Main and Bailey, parking lots on this campus, public school parking 15ts and even along streets that were basically clear.

Lindley Special to'The Spectrum (CPS) “About 98 percent of the Bible is bullshit,” Madalyn Murray O’Hair flatly states to a packed college auditorium in Texas. Though hospitalized with high blood pressure in 1975, O’Hair still retains her anti-evangelical zeal. Best known for her Supreme Court victory in 1963, which removed compulsory Bible-reading and prayer recitation from the nation’s public schools, O’Hair speaks at four or five colleges a month, commanding fees of up to $3000 per lecture. She is also engaged in a heated three-way race for city council in Austin, Texas, where the major issue is the city’s impending fiscal crisis. “It is extremely dangerous to have an upsurge of evangelism with Carter in the White House,” she states. “At the same time, there is an assault by the churches on — « abortion and on the Constitution. The Roman Catholics are trying to convince the legislatures from 36 states to form a constitutional convention to insert a right-to-life clause into the Constitution.” O’Hair says that five beliefs and practices have chained mankind to an “intellectual infancy: racial prejudice, violence, slavery, sex discrimination, and the idea that we’re no damned good,” which she says is the root of the previous four predicaments. Abuse of funds On a less ideological plane, she charges that churches have been abusing the government funds they have received to run community services such as old peoples’ homes, day care centers, and Head Start and similar programs. Participants in the services, she says, are overcharged as well as fed with religious propaganda. The tax-exempt status of churches, she continues, has been one factor in creating the fiscal burdens carried by cities like Austin. “I would like to know why the churches feel they have the right to ask everybody to pay for their insanity, quoted as saying in the campus paper at she Southwestern University in Georgetown, Texas. A spokesman for the Catholic Archdiocese of New York characterizes O’Hair’s remarks as “nonsense, and continues that “there are a lot of people out there spouting out charges that have no basis. Rev. Dr. Dan M. Potter, Executive Director of the Council of Churches in New York City, counters O’Hair’s complaints by stating that church-run, state-funded servic s are not allowed to include any religious instruction, and that charitable institutions, including schools and churches, are considered tax exempt “under the rule which implies they do something constructive for society.” No public stance “We take no public stance on Ms. O’Hair,” Rev. Potter continues, “mainly because the more we enter into a debate with her, the more it glorifies the individual.” Despite the Council’s neglect, however, O’Hair appears to be getting a response, though it is somewhat mixed. One student at Southwestern noted that amongst those attending the atheist’s lecture there, “faces contorted, voices raised, fists shook, even threats were muttered.” “I don’t go tp a lecture that 1 don’t have a stand-up for Christ,” O’Hair retorts. “If they didn’t appear on their own, I’d have to plant somebody to make an example.” She adds that she is very popular with college audiences. Her attempts to have religion courses “thrown out” of college and replaced by atheism programs so far have been unsuccessful, but a 120-hour course, in atheism is offered at the American Atheist Center where she is based. She envisions some day an American Atheist University. She seeks no converts, however. “The Seventh Day Adventists can stay where they Slavic culture symposia Yesterday marked the first day of “Slavic Cultures. Similarities and Differences,” a month-long symposium geared to explore Slavic folklore, sociology, history, cinema and art. Sponsored by the Department of Germanic and Slavic, the symposium was arranged by Russian Professor Nina Tretiar-Shieldy “in response to the heightened ethnic students and all residents.

Page two The Spectrum . . Friday, 18 February 1977 Graduate student employees here may go on strike next month. a spirited Union Council meeting Wednesday night, the Graduate Student Employees Union decided that an emergency meeting for all graduate student employees will be held at 4 p.m. this Sunday in Norton Hall The decision to be made by those present will be whether a strike referendum should be held, and when. One proposal to be brought up and decided upon at the meeting will call for voting by graduate employees on March 14 to 18. “We think it will win,’ was the sentiment of most union activists. “Graduate employees know their situation is bad and getting worse.” Should the proposal carry, a strike would presumbably begin shortly thereafter, more than a week before the start offspring break, and almost two months before the end of the semester. Last month, the Union had sent Acting President Albert Somit a package of sixteen demands along with a letter demanding an administration response and negotiations with the GSEU. Received on the very last day of the Union’s deadline, Somit’s response indicated that his administration was willing “to discuss these [the 16 demands] and other matters of concern to graduate students.” Union sources called the response “a nothing letter,” explaining that Somit’s position was no different now from last semester. Despittj Union, efforts, “the meeting he [Somit] promised hasn’t happened,’ one Union member asserted. In a related development, several undergraduates, including representatives frolft Student Association and Women’s Studies College, met Tuesday night to begin the formation of an undergraduate support committee “to aid the GSEU in its three-yea'r attempt to gain recognition and a contract.” A meeting for all interests and concerned undergraduates will be held Thursday, February 24 at I p.m, in Norton Hall.

Stnuneyer Spectrum Staff Writer With a little bit,of luck, construction on the Health, Physical Education, and Recreation Building on the Amherst Campus will begin in April 1978. The facility will be built in two stages Phase I, the first part of the gym to be built, will include a ten thousand seat field house, seven handball courts and some locker room facilities. Also included in this half of the project will be wrestling and therapy areas and some faculty offices and classrooms. The project has been delayed for a number of years by architechtural errors, lack of money due to the State’s fiscal situation and continuous cuts in space. Many of these cuts were due to an error in the ratio of space for inside facilities, to the total amount of space approved for the entire project. — „ More cuts made University administrators and local political officials resisted these cuts and tried to find alternate means of alleviating the space problem, but again, due to the poor financial situation of the state, cuts were made in the building the course of the last year, Student Athletic Review Board Chairman Dennis Delia has worked with former SA President Michelle Smith and current SA Vice President Steve Speigel in an attempt to get construction underway. Delia and Smith compiled a report on the status of the gym which included the history of the building, its original conception in 1968, each of the many cuts made, and its present status. Armed with this information, Delia has continued his campaign to get the project underway. Last year he traveled to Albany where he was assured of a beginning date of April, 1977. Since then we has received notice of delays which put the project at its present starting date. by Tom Dowd Staff Writer Spectrum Father James P. Sinnott, a Maryknoll priest expelled from South Korea for his human rights efforts, told of his activities in that country to a small but interested audience Tuesday afternoon in Norton Hall. Sinnott’s speech was the first of a series in a human rights campaign sponsored by the Peace Center Project of Community Action Corps (CAC). by This group’s aim is to change what was described during a shown in movie a prominent Archbishop the presentation as a situation where “the state is no longer for the man, but man is for the state.” Sinnott has spent all 15 years of his priesthood in Sduth Korea, now the scene of another dictatorship. That dictatorship is headed by Park Chung-hee and is supported in part by American The movie further contended the “suspension” of rights could be justified due to the existence of a communist threat. Although South Korea is neighbored by the communist north, many experts consider an invasion an impossibility and view the Red threat as a paper tiger. In an interview with South Korea’s Foreign Minister, the BBC correspondent gave evidence of the use of torture by South Korea’s law enforcement officers on its citizens. When asked for confirmation of such actions the Foreign Minister replied: “1 don’t know if they are (tortured) they may resort to the courts.” The Supreme Court of South Korea gave the eight men a trial of ten minutes, according to Sinnott. corporate dollars. According to a BBC correspondent featured in the film, the Park regime “is supported 38,000 American troops.” The movie, entitled Anno Domini was made by the BBC and was shown against the wishes of both the BBC and Time-Life, the copyrighters Sinnott reasoned the reason for this restrictiveness may have been pressure from the South Korean government on by the two corporations. The film vividly portrayed the South Korean scene and featured interviews with Sinnott and his associates, who were close friends of eight men murdered by the regime in April of 1975. At that criticizing the time the decree stating anyone government would be put to death, and Sinnott was expelled. At the time press releases reported the but eight murdered men to be accused communists, dictatorial Park s they opposed according to Sinnott powers. __ on Catholic opposition f because, according to Sinnott, at the time most of were jailed.” Protestant ministers the Commenting on the existence of freedom of religion in South Korea, he remarked, “Park says he allows freedom of religion, and frankly we take advantage of it.” Catholic priests have formed an association against Park’s government and meetings are held in the churches while the KCIA (the Korean CIA) takes notes in the back pews, Sinnott said. Why is the aid from the U.S. still pouring into ten Sinnott, to According Korea? South were in discussions balked when congressmen progress concerning the reduction of aid to South Korea. Sinnott claimed the congressmen argued South Korea is our last bastion of defense against communism in Asia. “Now,” Sinnott said, “eight of the ten congressmen are being investigated for being The film centered ‘ on the take.” Sinnott is in the United States “talking myself hoarse about the gross injustices in South Korea.” He looked tired as he explained how helpful it is to write to one’s congressman. “I’ve been in Washington long enough toknow that,” he said ' Letter writing Complementing Delia’s efforts are those of Speigel who started his own letter writing campaign. Speigel wrote a letter to Governor Carey expressing the great need of of the proposed gym at this University. In addition, he sent a copy area their seeking this letter to a large number of legislators from this support for the project.

He feels that the assurances he has received from Albany, as well as from Facilities Planning Vice President John Telfer, will actually hold true this time. Telfer stated in an interview that he was also optimistic that construction will start on Phase I in April of next year. He said that this is contigent upon the passing of the budget for the next fiscal year. He also was reasonably sure that no further cuts in the facility will be made. to begin At the moment Phase II of the gym is scheduled begun. first is phase after the construction approximately one year construction Facilities Planning, of According to James Rozanski the should take about thrae years for each phase.

It has lobbied against federal aid to medical students, fought American Cancer Society’s free cancer clinics, objected to veterans health care benefits and discouraged free veneral disease clinics. The AMA has helped to defeat every slide of National Health Care legislation ever to 'be served up to Congress. Today U.S. is the only advanced nation in the world lacking a national health Jhe plan. Self-perpetuating trustees At the initial gathering of the Association in 1848, President. Nathan Chapman proudly spoke: “This assemblage presents a spectacle of moral grandeur that is delightful to contemplate.” One hundred years later Harry Truman would call it, “just another mean trust.” Structure of the AMA is pyramidal. It is a federation of 54 state and territorial associations composed of aver 1900 county medical opinion of themselves, and think they know all there is to know about the healthy care needsvof this country.” exalted societies.' Without membership in a county society, a doctor would find it nearly impossible to obtain hospital privileges purchase and to malpractice insurance., If he wished to specialize it would be difficult to get accredidation. Referrals from other physicians would disappear. In Buffalo, radiologist Dr. Angelo S. D’Eloia incurred the wrath of the Erie County Medical Society in 1962 by publicly supporting “My Medicare. practice just disappeared,” he related. “As a radiologist 1 was dependent on referrals from other doctors and they just stopped Quasi-legal accredidation agency To its credit the AMA has done a commendable job of imposing standards of medical education. It disseminates important scientific suddenly.” Membership in the county medical society usually precludes membership the state in association and the AMA, running annual dues to over 200 dollars. Appointed committees from the county society select a slate of county delegates who select the state officials, who select the 234 national delegates. The national delegates nominate the president and the 15 member boatd of trustees. Since the national delegates meet only twice a year most of the power is concentrated in the hands of the board. AMA critic Dr. John Adrian! has seen flaws in this, saying, “the biggest problem with the AMA is that it has a self-perpetuating body of trustees, who have an John Naughton information through its various publications, and has aided in exposing medical quackery. But in the past 40 years the main thrust of its activities has gradually shifted from scientific matters to fierce defense of the profession’s pecuniary interests. In recent times the public and many individual doctors have become dissillusioned with the AM A and its reactionary stands. Today, fewer than half of the country’s physicians are dues paying members. Nevertheless most still belong to their county medical’ societies and indirectly support the AMA. The medical control schools thus AMA’s influence on the profession begins with its over the 113 medical throughout the nation. This life-giving power stems from the Association’s quasi-legal status as an accredidation agency. Nineteen states rely exclusively on AMA standards, with most others adhering closely to them. The AMA also sets standards for “These policies. admission standards, of course, fix the quality of medical education, but they also indirectly determine the size of classes in each school,” says the Yale Law Journal's report on the AMA. AMA control of doctor supply has historically been more direct. During the Depression, when physicians’ earnings fell, the Association urged medical schools to adopt more restrictive policies. The AM A Journal called for “professional birth control.” The Association president in 1934 piece advised, “a fine of educational work could be well done if we were to use only half the 70-odd medical schools in the United States.” Enrollments everywhere dropped. subsequently Urgent and critical need Effects of this policy hit home in the form of a critical doctor shortage which began in the 1940’s. The AM A consistently denied the existence of a shortage. When empirical evidence became overpowering, it claimed the problem was in the distribution of doctors and not their number. Yet, the AMA characteristically fought any government interference into the distribution dilemma. The shortage worsened and in 1960 President John Kennedy that to keep the already low proportion of doctors constant, twenty medical schools would have to be opened within ten years. In 1968 the AM A finally conceded, there was an “urgent and critical need for more physicians.” announced To insure new doctors go where they are needed. Congress passed the Health Professions Assistance Act of 1976. The act provides for educational subsidies to doctors who set up practice in urban and rural poverty areas. If they continued serving in those areas, the physicians would then be eligible for additional subsidies. Another section of the act forces universities into directing interns towards specialties where doctors are needed. If by 1980 50% of a university’s interns are not placed in these specialties the school will risk losing federal aid. John Naughton, dean of the school, SUNYAB medical informed 'The Spectrum that medical schools are now graduating twice as many doctors as ten years ago.The impact of these graduates should be felt around 1980. “The need is for physicians who are willing to go into family medicine areas,” Norton said. “The issue is not ‘specialization vs. non-specialization,’ but kinds of things doctors specialize in,” he continued. A similar program in teaching has improved the quality of primary and secondary education in poverty areas. The hope is that the new program will have the same effect on health care.

His reasoning that Abu Daud should be released because as he states, “The German police incited by the Israeli government started a massive shooting” is a nonsequitur to the Nth degree. This was by far -not the first or the final time that the Israel government has had to deal with “Palestinian” terrorists that have continuously citizens. livqs of Israeli threatened the Unfortunately, Israel’s hard line policy against terrorists is obviously not adhered to by other countries, finance being a prime example. Obviously this particular country feels that Arab oil money is an excellent substitute for something called justice, the last inkling, of which left France with Daud when he was freed without any legal proceedings brought against him. Look how easily people forget the need for a strong and secure Jewish homeland. If one had existed in the 1940’s possibly millions of people years, or hold on to the money and put it to better use fee totals about $880,000 each year activity The Because the University may expel those who refuse to pay it certain death after not being allowed entrance to numerous countries who had no sympathy for their incredible plight. Remember, Mr. Leivant, that in 1948 the Arab people who were living in what is now Israel would not sign a secular agreement to partition two separate states, because then as is the case now these people do not care to recognize the existence &f a Jewish state. We feel that the common sense of the readers of Mr. Leivant’s letter was insulted and not those educated by the cartoon in question. How can anyone term the Israeli-Arab citizenry as being under a “brutal occupation” when it is a documented fact that these people in Israel have a higher standard of living than a vast majority of their brothers in neighboring Arab states. At least these people have the opportunity to a productive life while thousands of “refugees” still sit festering in camps that have existed for three decades in Arab states which are their homelands. If it werf not for people like The Spectrum editors who are capable to see through the appalling amounts on incongruities that have surrounded dealings with such terrorists we feel that the phrase “human being” would have lost all itsjpeaning. < Danny Greenstie « Mark Siev Better stay inside To the Editor.

Frassetto studied to be an actress, and as an off-shoot of these studies she joined the Ray Bosier Mime Company. Two years later at a mime festival in Rome she met the other two. Excited by their exploration into new realms of Mime, she saw in their art form an escape from classical Mime. The two men were equally impressed by her performance, and, realizing that they needed a woman to perfect their act, asked her to join. Those who attended the performance of Munnenschanz, the Swiss Mime-Masque Theatre, with the preconceived notion of a white-faced Marcel Marceau styled show, were in for a big surpirse. Andres Bossare, Bernie Schurch, and Fiorina Frassetto have broken through the traditional barriers of conventional mine, dazzling their audiences with a style all their own.

Network. Potential viewers should be consoled that when it arrives, ten-time Oscar nominated Network will stay a.long time. If it comes to a far-flung theater, wait for the warmth of Spring and then get out to see it. Network possesses intelligence, intensity, well placed wit and anger and a high gloss of great competance in all its aspects. It moves with finely tuned urgency, every scene leading to the next and with purpose. Writer Paddy Chayevsky makes mincement of giant corporations, the television industry, revolutionaries, and the rest of the world while he's at it. He cuts them all down to size with riducule and some simple extrapolation. — — — — Network does have a few minor problems, although these are repeatedly obscured by the assets. Chayevsky's characters are the extreme and exaggerated big-city cartoons that also peopled his previous Hospital. Faye Dunaway is a cold-blooded, ball-busting programing executive; William Holden the world-weary news veteran, a last stronghold of down-to-earth humanity. — — — — — — — Page ten . The Spectrum . Friday, 18 February 1977 And that's the way it isn't Peter Finch is the most far-fetched of all, the well-intentioned who goes off the deep end and exhorts his nationwide, high-IMielson audience not to take it anymore. It isn't only the Characters, but the plot itself which continually swerves into the realm of implausibility.Of course, no one ever said that this movie had to be totally realistic. As it is, it's close enough. One disappointment in the recently announced Oscar nominations was the lack of recognition of the nearly show-stealing supporting performances by Robert Duvall. He has recently run the gamut from the steadfastly loyal and British Watson in The Seven Percent Solution to the ruthless, corporate man Hackett in Network. To hear Duvall rant about profit and loss and the supremacy of the conglomerate while director Sidney Lumet pans down the skyscraper canyon of Sixth Avenue is a perfect crystallization of Chayevsky's modern fable. —Mitchel Zoler newscaster Prodigal Sun �Respect for the past Hoots' addresses itself to the preservation of the Essence Dance and Drums preceded the word. — It has too often, throughout Time Immemorial, become fashionable to enact Change without due respect for past, or full account for the future.

Prejudice. Or better yet, ignorance. A little girl named Missy Anne innocently squeaking "She jes' like a li'l nigger doll!" under control of an autonomy that substitutes practice for feeling, becomes the unmistakably prim symbol of liberalism portrayed by Sandy Duncan in the film. For her, Kizzy (portrayed by Leslie Uggams) is still an affectionate nigger doll. After Anne tells Kizzy about her European ancestry, Kizzy tells her about her African heritage, which includes great metallurgists, holy men, and kings. Anne giggles. "I'm serious, Kizzy." Anne, in truth, is the nigger dolls of the land, produced by niggers trying to hide by running games on the world. The sadness is they may never know they're caught until their lack of movement wakes them, dead and pale. The water they drink is a spittle of their own making. (Remember in the movie where Kizzy spits in the cup and Missy Anne can't tell the difference when she drinks. For her, there are only muddy waters. Dig it. Whatever differences exist, the basic messages of the book maintain its spirit and integrity throughout the film.) Guilt and pity, as we said, will not help. Constructive deeds will.

Renaissance, last Friday evenirtg was billed as a "Valentine's Day concert for music lovers." It was hard not to have some romantic mood-feelings towards the bands who loved the audience and the audience who loved the bands! Ace, Sea-Level, and Renasisance. It was hard indeed. Opening the show was the rock group, Ace, who tried, as would an irrationally egotistic adolescent, to make a passionate pass for recognition by the audience. Failing in this attempt two summers ago at a Rich Stadium concert, the group scored an ace in the hole this night. No cold, frigid shoulder was present this time, and Ace won tepid favor from the audience. The crowd was courted by Ace, but the stereotype of the typical Buffalo audience emerged to maintain an aura of coyness which separated the two from any close relationship.

The song seemed to be titled "Get Ready" and the piano's honky-tonk sleaze blended with an ample guitar to woo the audience's musings of aloofness. Ace pursued a valiant effort to enrapture the crowd's hearts. The group was a good opener, but how long will this third-billed frustration go on? Ace needs to break swiftly and stiffly into stardom before they are let down. Audience response to their love of the ex-Allman Borther members composing the band, Sea-Level resembled the sycophantic plunge which caresses the heart when it is consumed by the phenomenon of a crush. This off-shoot of the South's first boogie band had changed into a jazz-oriented group with no seemingly visible limitations. The audience's blood was in Sea-Level's veins and flowed to a soft intercourse with the mellow keyboard expeditions of Chuck Leavell. White and red lights around the keen piano strains browsed into a haunting level of jazz. 24-Hour love bug The jazz set was totally instrumental while the' drums of Jaim, the guitar of Jimmy Nalls, and the keyboards of Chuck Leavell combined with-a quiet frenzy burning with the desire to please in the song, "High Tide." The tune, "The Rain In Spain" saw the mellow blue gloom flutter madly with a type of Spanish-tinged jazz which lingered like the imagined passionate kiss fantasies are made of in the least of hope. Forget the Allman Brothers; they are dead and Sea-Level may be the new Jeff Beck group. But wait a minute aren't crushes ephemeral? Mesmerized, the audience was captured by the siren-like sounds of Annie Haslam and Renaissance. The crowd was still hungry and excited, and Renaissance sought to captivate the multitude's crimson yearnings with the gentle whispering of classical, folk-rock music. Renaissance looked to free audience desires by giving a gift of song in "Carpet of the Sun." What a diverse pair, this audience and the performers. They kidnepped each other and bled a red blood, music affair. Don't touch me there But then it broke. Renaissance subtly mocked the audience with words from “Running Hard:" Running hard towards what used to. be Losing ground, changes sliding endlessly Reaching out for things you want to see Find reflection of insane reality. — The bass of Jon Camp began to argue with the crowd in "Ashes Are Burning." It scolded the audience's harsh paternalism, loudly reverberating its musical plea. It soloed a compromise, speaking through a synthesizer. The crowd's burning embers of passion understood, and begged forgiveness. Renaissance accepted but left the stage as Haslam warned, "Ashes , are burning away." The show was finished. The act was done. The fine performers of Renaissance love will remain faithful in the memory. » Love life VELCOME HOME —Jensen Solzhenitzen, "Mother Russia." The acoustic guitar of Michael Dunford softly, but strictly, condemned the Soviet bastardizing of Marxist philosophy and praised Alexander's love for his country. But affairs are based on secret trust and obscene and private thought. The lyric friendship with Alexander brought a third party to the intimacy. As the song climaxed, a nervous interlude to the romance presented itself. Thoughts ran back to the crush of Sea-Level. Heart-chatterings of the audience were voiced and vyished Renaissance to sing of other, more pleasant stories of love. So, Renaissance was a slave and obeyed, as Haslam kissed the minds of the crowd with the epiphanic "Ocean Gypsy." The crowd began to domineer and its tough was a ponderous and breaking yet wave, swallowing, enjoying, Renaissance. Haslam and Renaissance plowed through the affair, always keeping their music above the passioned audience with peaceful virtue. Haslam's voice wailed, deeply questioning life, the Renaissance ode to Alexander throughout %frW \ vhere the well educated drinkers meet, r specialty is beef on week! Ve serve food til 3 am B.S.

Snore, snore indeed, and weren't we all sick of it. trace A nostalgic flashback: the sixties; the summer of love bore an endless wave of glorious rock music. Recall when everyone used — to sit around and pass the old peace pipe, winding up that old victrola with hopes that their lives would be Saved by good old rock, rock, rock, rock, and roll music? Concerts were also a big thing then. Almost every weekend people would go en masse to their local concert hall to savor the sights and sounds of their faves. Rock and roll was important then, both sociologically and spiritually, ah yes, the turbulent 60's; Hendrix, the Doors, the Velvets, and the Who. A traumatic realization; rock died early in the soporific seventies. Nixon's seventies, when (like so-called artists the politicians) were more interested in Dom Perignon and "crying all the way to the bank." The seventies, when rock aficionados were sick and tired of being squashed into tittle tiny globules at enormous outdoor (so-called) concerts. How pleasurable it on a rock album, put to became so that you could be lulled into a sleepy stupor. Finally, it got to the point where all you could think about was snore, snore, snore; after so many pictures of Deliverance A proclamation: rock isn't dull anymore. To begin with, it never had to be. So, rock and roll fans arise and shake the sandman's work out of your groggy eyes! PUNK ROCK IS HERE AND IT YOUR CLEANSE WILL BUT STILL PETRIFIED WILLIN-TO-ROCK SOULS. This is not just the next big hype. It is something important and relevant.

According to the litany of punk rock, we shall be delivered out of the clutches of such middle of the road poozle as Rod the Mod, Abba, Linda McCartney, Donna Godcheaux, and Peter Frampton. TODAY, WE HAVE THE RAMONES, champions of punk rock. (Thank you God, we needed them. God please excuse my tackiness, but why in hell did you take so long?) The Ramones are Tommy, Johnny, Joey, and DeeDee, four lovable types from Queens, New York. Visually they are a far cry from (let's use as an example) the Mick Jagger had been printed in and calculated Rolling stylish that even Rolling Stone Magazine Stones. Instead of sequins and jumpsuits, the Ramones wear plain old dungarees and sneakers. Perhaps they over-indulge in their craving for leather jackets, but then again, when was the last time Mick dagger wore his street clothes on stage? Also, the Ramones don't arrive at their concerts in limousines, and even if they could afford the luxury of a Rolls Royce, I doubt they would. play the Ramones When C.B.G.B.'s, they sit at the, bar during breaks and chat with their UUAB Film Committee Presents SAMURAI WEEKEND Fri. “Three Outlaw Samurai” Three Samurai come to the aid of a band of poor farmers Reminiscent of “Seven Samurai” and “Rio Bravo'* Sat.‘‘Zatoichi’s Fire Festival” — The hilarious comic Samurai rides again Sun. “Sword of Vengeance” A Lord High Executioner is framed and deals retribution to the clan that wronged him.

As noted rock columnist Lisa Robinson has mentioned, could you imagine Roger Daltrey, walking through the aisles of Madison Square Garden, asking his fans what they would like to hear played. (That's a big joke if I ever heard one.) Back to basics Even more important than the visual aspects, the Ramones' music has been the first in a long while to deal directly with the common teenager's frustrations and joys. Their music does not document topographic oceans, not even flying saucers or The Battle of Evermore. No, the Ramones deal with much simpler and down-to-Earth necessities as do, to something "finding everybody needs something to spinning do." Instead of such tales of exuberant ultra-rich subjects as impractical the Cocaine, and groupies Ramones portray such artifacts as sniffin' glue in the attic, meeting HER at Burger King, boyfriends and other local scenery (53 & 3rd). The Ramones are not anti-intellectual, yet, while they have shelved Ph.D. type stuff, they have come up with an effective stance to rock and roll. And so I ask you, is not rock and roll what it's all about? I think so. The Ramones have two albums, their first simply entitled The their newest Ramones and blockbuster The Ramones Leave Home. But, more on that later, first let's get into some of Ramone's drummer Tommy historical and analytical memoirs. * * * * * January was neither the best of times nor the worst of times for New York, nor the world's best punk rock group, The Ramones. First of all, Joey, the tall, slender, and cockney-accented lead singer was laid up in New York nursing a University critical fodp infection. The contagion had leen drawn deep to antibiotics. the bone and Joey, then you Hope ya get can come to Buffalo and show the Ipcal wimps Ikhat's the real meaning of rock and roll. Regretfully, Joey's ailment means the cancellation of the band's second European tour. The Ramones are very big in that tea drinking country, a fact which should hint a little at where they're at. I had been sitting in one of the offices at Sire Records, a funny blue-painted building which is located on 74th Street in Manhattan. On top of a Phillips turntable sat playing the new killer Ramones ablum, when Tommy walked in as punctually as had been promised for the 3 p.m. meeting. Tommy looked as usual, street tough, sporting blue jeans, tattered sneakers, a leather jacket (of course) and a pair of dark shades, which I have been informed never leave his scraggily coiffured head. Tommy and David Byrne, leader, songwriter, and guitarist for Talking Heads, a band which frequently shares the bill with the Ramones, discuss the battle tactics for upcoming gigs. Then Tommy pivots, faces me and appreciatively nods; he's ready. We walk down a black metal spiral staircase and into a soundproof chamber. Somewhat nervously, him a we both light cigarettes Tareyton, me a Marlboro. Only Tom, as I said, was present at this interview. However, the reader should think of the words, as spoken by the collected entity of the Ramones. The Ramones are a group, a gang with a name of psychological importance. Like Kiss, they're real names are unimportant, for the Ramones are well the Ramones are themselves and that explanation is good enough if you have heard their great music. — * * * * * Early influences Let's go back a few years, back to when the Ramones were killing time in their home town of Forest Hills. Forest Hills has always been a great place for growing up, rock and roll. The Ramones are not the first to come from this Queens town. Already it has given birth to such noted artists as Paul Simon, Al Kooper, and the Vagrants, ala heavy weight Leslie West. -continued on Friday, 18 February 1977 .

I refer in particular to Yellowstone Boulevard, between 67th and 68th Drive (which is very close to the famous tennis stadium), "Well, we're all friends, we know each other from Junior High probably Russel School (note Sage). You know the Birch wood Towers. It was like a neighborhood, a neighborhood where I guess our mentality got us together. We used to listen to a lot of music.

We missed the songs. You see, in the late sixties and early seventies, rock and roll got away from the songs. They got into almost improvisational type stuff. You know, they got lots of influences from other sources. In the late 60's, country before, music was brought in the blues and later classical, and a lot of these sources were brought in and utilized, which is good, great in fact. That's where progressive music comes from and that's good, but we missed the rock and roll; the songs. You just put it on and have a good time. Wow, listen to that song, that's a great song.

We started to play it outselves. We'd just get together and fool around and we liked what we heard." * * * * * "The Ramones were created ago years almost three (approximately). At first, I was the manager/producer of the group. It was just a trio. We were looking for a drummer, and I would sit down and tell the drummer what to do, and they would never get it right. I'd like the drums and said, what the heck. It was fun, I had always like the drums, though I had not really been playing the drums before." While the Ram ones were experimenting with the sounds, they were trying to get and getting their line up together, they all had to put up with the routines and ruts of other menial jobs and the acquisition of education. (I have been told that Johnny once went to Tampa University, but only lasted a week. When he returned he explained, "Naaah, I couldn't dig that shit.") None of that stuff went over well with the boys, for in the backs of their minds they pined to be in some form of entertainment, with dreams of movies, yet always with a heart full of- rock and roll. Also, around this time, our boys got heavily into the early N.Y. music of the seventies. While they fooled and hung around in New York, they many made musical acquaintances. The group Blondie was one suck pack of musical ties; one which perhaps directly helped them break into the music scene.

We started playing C.B.G.B.'s, which is just a little bar with a little stage in the Bowerey. A group called Blondie asked us to play with them. We had been friends with them. Hilly (Kristal) who owned the place, liked the band and asked us to play again. And we played there for a period of time. We sent invitations for writers to come see us and eventually when somebody wrote something good about us vye'd send them our albums and thanks. Eventually, Lisa Robinson came down with us. Then Danny Fields, that was our big breaks with the media. Finally, Hilly had a summer rock festival and there was a big rush for us.The Ramones' energy and determination brings forth a special brand of warn, bam, bam, rock and roll. Their attitude is that they play what they like, but, at the same time, they are trying to be original and meaningful, to have a distinctive sound. A major result of this outlook has been a slew of great songs, including Shock "Gimme, Gimme Treatment" (a daily wish for many), "What's Your Game" (a simple but perceptive gesture), "Commando" (the producers of Hearts and Minds should have waited to use this), plus such great copy songs as "Let's Dance" and "California Sun." "It's not really a style. What we're tyring to do is just have songs. Nothing comes back, you know," says Tommy, matter of factly. "What we're tyring to do is modern. Our roots are from that, our .inspirations, but what we're doing is a combination of that and hard rock. We took the sounds of hard rock and added a bit of our own unique sound, and combined it with the melodic feel of that." Straight forward What is truly unique about the sonorousness of the group, however, is that they do not rely on any electronic gizmos to soup up their act. It's straight forward rock and roll, fast and heavy, with not one excessive guitar lick to be found. ANYWHERE. "Well, we found that solos slow our pace down. We try to keep the pace of our songs lively. Also,especially pH our first album, we tried to get away from ‘ that, like an overindulgence in the guitar. You know in the late sixties, when all the guitar virtuosos came in and were excellent, very good. I respect them, but in the seventies, you heard like fifth generation Eric Calptons playing the same thing. There was nothing innovative about that. You hear guitar breaks and it's very cliched.

So, when that happens, the guitar itself becomes un-unique. and uninteresting Unless someone comes around that's a really innovative guitar player, you know wow, where did that come from, someone like Eric Clapton, originally then fine, but just playing your instrument well, doesn't matter to a point. You knovi in the swing era, there were a hundred thousand saxaphonists and trombonists that were incredible, who couldn't get any jobs. They had the big bands and that was it and so that's what is's like with the lids. So, if everybody plays good, big deal." Finally, some other anecdotes: On Johnny's frantic rhythm guitar playing "He cuts his hands a lot. In the beginning, it used to be a problem.- He used to get REALLY bloody hands and he would have to wear bandages. Now, the callouses are enormous. On the first LP "Pretty good. It got good response; it went fairly well for a first album, we were pleased with it. On the second LP "We were going for a more melodic sound, yet at the same time, with a heavier tone." On C.B.G.B.'s "I always thought that C.B.G.B.'s had a chance to become a big place. I always thought it had a nice atmosphere. If bands are good, they have a showplace." On other great "I like Taling Heads, groups Blondie, and the Heartbreakers" and such oldies as "Bowie, T.

Meeting him was something e|se.” Now, the inevitable and most important question, when are we gonna see live Ramones in Buffalo? "Well, it's just a matter of time." Boo, nothing definite. There would be nothing like a Ramones concert to make the next weekend. Well, at least there are the records; life won't be too bad. Like I said a few thousand paragraphs ago, we can again enjoy music. The Ramones are GREAT! Audiences were universally swept away by the brilliance of the performance, a whirlwind of sensations that made the young children squeal with delight and the adults alternate between gasps of astonishment and roars of laughter.

Then, Pellom committed his fourth personal foul, and "Buffalo coach Leo Richardson sat him down. “That’s the key right there,” Richarson said. “We had a six point lead, and all of a sudden, they were right back in it.” Pellom finished the game with a season high of twenty rebounds, but in the two minutes he was on the bench, LeMoyne was able to dominate the boards; at one point, the Dolphins grabbed four offensive rebounds in a row. “We Robinson height. had no [Buffalo’s tallest player sides Pellom] can’t do it by himself,” Richardson said. When Pellom returned with four minutes left, in regulation time, LeMoyne had taken a 73-72 lead. Cooper scored a three-point play, and the see-saw slide to the finish began. and , LeMoyne Buffalo leads once more, but exchanged the Bulls were on top at the two-minute mark. With, 1:20 left, Buffalo’s Lloyd DeVaux missed a freethrow that could have put Buffalo up by three. Instead, LeMoyne’s Bob Burkhard was fouled seconds later, and he hit his two shots to tie the game. After Johnson committed an offensive foul to return the ball to the home team. Dolphins coach 1*om Cooney called a time out and told his team to stall for the last shot. Grey’s shot with only ( SYRACUSE Overtime. The basketball Bulls have a four point lead. They look like they have the t game under control. Right? Wrong. With Buffalo leading 85—81 in overtime, LeMoyne College scored 16 straight points to run away with a 97—87 win here Wednesday night. Buffalo’s record dropped to 3—18, while LeMoyne is now 13—6. The Trouble began after a jumpshot by Buffalo’s Sam Robinson and two freethrows by teammate Sam Pellom had put the Bulls up by four in the extra period. But the Dolphins’ Jene Grey hit two freethrows and John Lauer tied the score with a jumper. f Pellom stepped on the baseline while trying to drive, and the ball returned to Lemoyne. Then, the Dolphins scored six freethrows, a layup; two more freethrows and a jumper, while Buffalo couldn’t get their shots to drop. - Pellom’s rest hurts LeMoyne’s biggest lead prior to the overtime was a seven point spread early in the second half. But Buffalo’s guards, George Cooper and Ed Johnson, were collectively having their finest night of the year, and aided by Pellom’s strong rebounding, Buffalo moved ahead 72-66 with seconds left was deflected by Cooper and the game went into overtime. Hot and cold Buffalo was hurt early in the game by hot outside shooting by the Dolphins. But during that first half, the Dolphins were the only thing that was hot. It was about 60 degrees in the arena, the players had complained about it before the game. “It was cold, and 1 thought maybe we could play a zone for a few minutes to get us warmed up,” Ricahrdson said. “We knew they shot too well to stay in a zone.” The Dolphins shot 52 percent in the first half, and when Richardson switched to a man-to-man, Buffalo was down by a couple. The man-to-man helped the comeback, as did patience by Buffalo’s offense. *“We were Richardson pretty patient,” noted. “We’ve been around hSng enough to realise that’s how we have to play. I also thought we executed our plays very well.” Still, Richardson was very disappointed with the outcome. “In the pvertime, I just don’t know what happened. If we had more help from [reserve Dana] Mitchell and [Donald] Scott, we’d have been right in it,” he said. And so, the Bulls move on to Cleveland State tomorrow night, as their season nears a merciful end. Dorm fire extinguished by RAs, students, campus police Students, Resident Advisors and University Police cooperated to put out a grease fire that erupted in Porter Quad last Sunday evening. The only damage done was to the ceiling and to the range hood of the stove. Two University policemen were treated for smoke inhalation by the Student Health Service Office. One student felt that “kitchen safety regulations and fire drills should be taken a bit more GUSTAV GUSTAV GUSTAV GUSTAV GUSTAV GUSTAV GUSTAV GUSTAV GUSTAVGUSTAV GUSTAV GUSTAV seriously.” The fire, on the second floor of building two in the kitchen area of Room 212L, originated in a large covered cooking pot that contained oil. The electric stove had been on a high setting for a long time. A student in the kitchen saw the metal pot smouldering and shut off the burner. After notifying the owner, they both returned to the kitchen only to frnd bursting flames and splattering oil when the lid of the pot was removed. Janice Heinemann, a Resident Advisor on the second floor, was in her room next to 212L when she heard a commotion. When Heinemann realized what the cause of the uproar was, she went for the C02 extinguisher, then instructed two students to pull the fire alarm. At that point. students were told to evacuate if they had not already done so. Recuperation The R.A. also' experienced some difficulty when “trying to remove the pin, which permits the C02 to escape.” Students were also annoyed because they said the C02 extinguisher was empty. Robert Fortgang, a resident of Porter Quad, : said, “We had to alternate when putting the fire out so that we could recuperate from the intake of smoke.” Residents of Porter expressed concern about a possible malfunction of the smoke alarm. “The smoke alarm did not go on and the fire doors did not close automatically,” according to one student.

Born in Tarrytown, New York with an acoustic guitar in his mouth, Bromberg quickly escaped from banal, static, middle class surroundings to emerge, at the age of thirteen, in Grenwich Village. In a state of wide-eyed and tooth-decayed wonder, Bromberg began to emulate his idol, Pete Seeger. He soon became intimate with all the pretty people in the sordid concrete jungle and was recognized by Beb Dylan to be a genuine, blowin' in the wind rock, folk, blues artist. With such eminent renown, Bromberg began touring college campuses and folk festivals to become the fine winey fascination we know him to be today. Opening the show for Bromberg will be the Flying Burrito Brothers, the favorite act of Dan and Andy at the Mighty Taco Take-Out Shop. The Burritds have been around quite a long while and it is estimated that 60 different people have played with them during their existence. From the grinning of Gil Giibeau to the gritting of Sneaky Pete the Burrito's main country aim is to entertain.

The Lake Forest hockey team is coming to town, and they are more mysterious than a Conan Doyle novel. Tonight and tomorrow afternoon Buffalo plays host to the Foresters at the Tonanwanda Sports Center, and the games should prove to be interesting because nobody on the Buffalo team seems to know anything about them. Honestly, nobody knows anything about them! The players don’t know, the coaches don’t know, and the press has no idea what to expect. In short, expect the unexpected. The only thing that anybody seems to be sure of is that the Bulls will win. They have always done reasonably well against the Foresters, and are currently playing their best hockey of the season. Besides that, if the Foresters were anything special then everyone would be familiar with them, right? Split last year Well, the only concrete evidence available on which to make a forecast is the two clubs series record, and the Bulls hold a decisive 5—1 advantage in the win-loss department. Last year the Bulls traveled to Illinois for a two-game set against the Foresters not knowing what to expect, and came out with a split in the series. Lake Forest won the first game, 9-5, but the Bulls rallied to win the finale, 8—4. There you have it: all of the known information about the Lake Forest hockey team. To make sure that you don’t feel like a mindless idiot, rest assured that you know as much as the players and coaches know about the Foresters. For example, when asked for a quick preview of the weekend series, Buffalo assistant coach Mike Kelly just laughed, and head coach Ed Wright appeared puzzled before coming out with an obligatory “Well, they’ll be two competitive games against Lake Forest.” * • Predictions Goalie Johnny Moore, do you know anything about Lake Forest? “No,-but we’ll beat them anyway, no matter what they are or who they are. We’ll have no problem with them, we’re playing very well.” Center Eddie Patterson, you seem like the confident sort. Is there any chance of being beaten by the Foresters? “No! We’re just thinking playoffs right now Left Wing Jack'Kaminski proved to be a little more helpful, but not much. “Last year they beat us the first game, but we blew them off in the second. Our whole team’s going good, and I think we’ll beat anybody we go against.” Frank Anzalone said that he felt that Lake Forest was a good team to break out of a rut against. C’mon Frank, stop laughing. Do you really have any information for me? that “Well, I heard that Lake Forest recruited a few they take hockey more seriously now. I don’t know if it’s true or not, but 1 heard that they split a series with Western Michigan. Did anybody -else hear that?” No. Any anyway, hearsay evidence is inadmissaWe in an ice hockey rick Trying to examine all of life “facts” and draw a conclusion upon complex for this them is a task not easily accomplished. Much too lately? Poirot around seen Hercule reporter to do. Has anybody ” „ Friday, 18 February 1977 . > The Spectrum Page seventeen . �Environment symposia and industry’s effects The first in a series of free symposia entitled “Erie County’s Environment: 1977” featured talks by two University of Buffalo professors concerning local industry and the effects of its pollutants on Erie County air quality. Held on February 10th at Buffalo State College Science Building, the program opened with Beverly Paigan, of Roswell Park and Rachel Carson College, discussing the effects of industrial particulate emissions on Erie County. She was followed by Richard Tobin, from the political science department here, who spoke about sulfur dioxide dispersal in industrial waste. Paigan centered her talk on particulate emissions; their causes, remedies and effects on the human condition. The installation of scrubbers (pollution control equipment) as a possible remedy to reduce particulate emissions was discussed at length. Bethlehem Steel, she stated, was required by law to have installed scrubbers four years ago in each of their nine coke ovens. and that in a rarely used To date only one has been installed oven. The complications wrought by legal delays in this and other instances are a continual problem for battling environmentalists but one that only strict perseverance can overcome, Paigan says. One of the most pressing health problems she related concerns the men working atop the coke ovens who must breathe noxious fumes they spew forth. In a single day these men breathe in enough benzopyrene to equal smoking three to five packs of cigarettes per day. Not unpredictably, the incidence of cancer in these men is 25 percent greater than in the general population. Bethlehem Steel and Allied Chemical together discharge approximately 12 tons of benzopyrene annually into the Buffalo air. — Sulfur dioxide Tobin concentrated his half of the seminar on sulfur dioxide dispersal. He noted that sulfur dioxide accounts for a small percentage of total air pollution in the United States but causes over half of all property damage because of its acid, poisonous and corrosive properties. AnnauL-tonnage emitted in this country is 33 million tons a year. In Erie County alone 160,000 tons are emitted yearly. Property damage to this county can be roughly calculated at 25 cents per pound. But eliminating high sulfur dioxide levels will affect fuel bills since power plants are the single biggest source of sulfur dioxide. Power plants usually burn high sulfur content coal and oil which creates this problem. There are three alternatives: switch to low sulfur fuels such as low sulfur coal; switch to non-sulfur fuels, i.e. gas, hydroelectric power and nuclear energy; or, implementation of control devices, e.g. scrubbers. However, low sulfur coal must either come from the west at great transportation expense or from the deep and expensive-to-mine fields of the east. The use of non-sulfur fuels is unlikely because of the already high demands on gas and hydroelectric power and the environmental stresses that nuclear power presents. scrubbers in which This, needless to say, leaves one alternative ' — — very few power companies have cared to invest. Tobin specifically singled out Niagara Mohawk for installing a scrubber on an experimental basis on the condition that it would be removed at the end of two years “no matter what the results.” Both speakers discussed an upcoming public hearing on Pollution Control Law. Rule 216 which will be held this Wednesday, February 16th at the Erie County Public Library at 1:30 and 7 p.m. If put into effect, this law would raise the standards for particulate emissions. Even though it is not everything environmentalists would want it to be, both lecturers stressed the urgency of its passing and urged student support. The next scheduled symposium is entitled “Energy” and will be presented on February 24th at the Buff State Science Building. All are invited and asked to get concerned. Benefit for stricken officer Members of the University Police are holding a benefit for the family of former University Police Officer Frank Butler. Butler had an unusual accident in his home last October and is currently paralyzed and in a coma in the hospital. The benefit will be held tomorrow, February 19, at the Adam Plewacki Post of the American Legion, 385' Paderewski Drive, in Buffalo.

She told Brownstein she wfs “very upset” with his statements at the Conference of College Councils last month in which he lambasted the group for their closed-door procedures. “There aren’t as good people as anywhere,” Kelly these exclaimed. “We always all obey the law.” She told Brownstein that “in your young years” he couldn’t have possibly dedicated as much time and effort to the University as the members fo the Council, and accused him of “making trouble for the sake of making trouble.” Other business When the discussion was finally tabled, University President Robert Ketter outlined the significant items of interest to the University at the present time. He discussed the show storms and cancellation of classes, revealed to the Council how the lost class days would be compensated. The decision of cancelling classes is generally reached by 8 a.m., after Vice President for Finance and Management Edward Doty is informed of campus and road conditions by a maintenance employee, he explained. On Thursday, January 27, the first day of the storm, the Main Street Campus did not appear too snowridden, he said, adding that apparently weather conditions can be moderate on Main Street, while it’s “absolutely pure hell in Amherst.” Ketter also illustrated the possibility of flooding by Ellicott Creek. The creek has been —continued on page 2 — �CSEA workers to Council opens doors... lose vacation time —continued from page 1— continuously monitored to check water elevation and the rate of the current. In 1960, the elevation of the creek was four feet, two by Gary Sammartano Spectrum Staff Writer inches; it rose to five feet, eight inches by February, 1977.

Most recently, the New York State Supreme Court declared that the state education department had the authority to close doctoral programs in English and history at SUNY Albany. However, the SUNY board of trustees plans to appeal the decision. The court case was the upshot of years of power plays between SUNY trustees and the state education department. In recent years, the commissioner of education has authorized outside experts to review doctoral programs at ah universities within the state, whether they be public and private. This has led to the discontinuation of more than 20% of all doctoral programs reviewed. According to The Chronicle of Higher Education, SUNY trustees have objected to this procedure on the grounds that a 1961 law gives them autonomy over the SUNY system. They claim that the state is permitted only to review and approve the trustees’ master plan every four years E/ I PRATT & WHITNEY # AIRCRAFT GROUP An Equal Opportunity Employer/ Male & Female However. State Supreme Court Justice Harold J. Hughes disagrees with the trustees’ interpretation of the law. He ruled that in light of the commissioner’s historically extensive power over education in the state, the regents had the power to accredit SUNY courses as well as courses at any other educational institution. The board of regents has been registering courses and programs in New York since 1787. Supervisory control Hughes added in his decision that although the SUNY trustees have control over the internal affairs of SUNY schools as provided by that same 1961 law, the state still has supervisory control over the trustees’ actions. He said that SUNY was intended, “to be subject to the same requirements imposed by the regents and commissioner on private institutions of higher education in this state.” The Hughes decision implies that the SUNY trustees could become a powerless body. If the state education department were to decide that it wants more direct control over SUNY operations, it could merely overrule any decision by the SUNY, trustees with the Hughes decision to back it up. For the time being, however, SUNY doctoral programs wilt continue to come under the state’s microscope. More reviews are currently scheduled for doctoral programs in philosophy, mathematics, sociology, and political science. The two Albany programs closed down by the state remain closed, although the commissioner could authorize the programs to continue to allow currently enrolled students to finish.

Page three �Peripatetic Academia Xenia Independent study and world travel offered by Jeffrey John Spectrum Staff W ter An opportunity for low cost world travel and co-educational independent study has become available to Western New York students through the flexible structure of Peripatetic Academia Xenia (PAX). The name of the organization means “the gift of knowledge through traveling.” PAX is the invention of Don Alessandra, a graduate of this University. Its purpose is to provide students of all interests a framework for realization of self-designed travel-study programs. Two study excursions are slated for this summer’s break. One trip will be a thirty-day exploration of Mexico, while the other ' explores the coastal towns of England and Scandanavia for six weeks. Grassroots organization Alessandra emphasized there is a clear distinction between PAX and other commercially established charter tours. “We are a non-profit, grassroots organization, striving to design all our trips specifically to meet the needs and interests realism is fcdded to the Scandanavian voyage by the mode of travel used. After flying to England the group will board a 100-foot Norwegian gallease, the Anna Rosa. The authentic European sailing vessel was built in 1896.

It estimated that over one billion dollars could be collected if tax priviledges to big business were removed and that over two billion dollars could be collected by the State if State and city sales taxes pocketed by many businesses was recovered. Eleven other sources of income were listed, including a fairer return of money collected by Federal taxes. The National Coalition maintained that New York City contributed $26 billion in taxes to the Federal government in 1974, and got back only $3 billion. $8 billion of the $26 billion collected went to the military, and the National Coalition urged that cuts in the $115 billion military budget to free additional money for education and needed social services. Richardson received nearly 7 percent of the vote for the State Assembly on the Independent Party line in the 64th Congressional District in New York’s Chelsea neighborhood on a program to maintain all social services, including education. He urged student leaders to run for Assembly seats as independents, saying that “you can represent your interests best.” Conference material suggested that students actively oppose any candidate who seeks to cut the CUNY and SUNY budget, and to an promote independent for Governor to oppose candidate The Spectrum is published Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the academic year and on Friday only summer by The during the ■Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc.

SUNY’s budget contains what is tantamount to a $20 million reduction, including the loss of at least 678 positions, maintained SASU Legislative Director Joel Packer. However, the community colleges and CUNY are being hit harder. The total even recommended appropriaton for community colleges in the SUNY system is $84.2 million, a $9.7 million reduction from last year. The total recommended budget for CUNY is $465 million, a decrease of $6 million from their current budget of $471 million. This current budget is $60 million less than their 1975—76 budget, and $90 million less than the 1974—75 budget. This year, there are 41,199 fewer undergraduates and 8000 fewer graduate students from the year before, and in the past 15 months, 5000 full time staff have been fired.

Finding no such program available, he devised his own, and. together with 23 of his students, raised enough money to tour Spain. Traveling by train and bus, they visited many famous and historical sites. The troupe was able to have cultural exchanges and dialogues in Spanish at the markets, villages, roadsides and fishing harbors. If this year’s Mexico trip is like past excursions, the PAX group will travel principally in a renovated school bus following the back-routes and camping out on the edge of lakes and rivers. At one point the bus will be secured to a railroad platform and travel several hundred miles over the spectacular Tarahumara canyons, famous for crevices and valleys more than a mile deep. After visiting small mountain villages, the bus will be uncoupled from the railroad platform so that it can proceed to Mazatland, Mexico City, the pyramid of the sun and moon in Teotihuacan and finally explore the interior of the country before returning home. In addition to the two trips this summer, several others are in the planning stage. To receive a monthly newsletter describing all prospective trips, and shorter local excursions in the Western New York area, one may purchase a membership in PAX for a nominal fee.

He later decided to return home after assurance from Soviet embassy officials that he would not be prosecuted. However, he was subsequently arrested in Moscow and charged with treason under Article 64 of the Soviet Union’s criminal code, which defines “flight abroad or refusal to return from abroad to the USSR” as a treasonable offense. He was tried and sentenced to twelve years in a strict regime labor colony. Cases as these are neither rare nor its members involved in said Cox. Guarantee neutrality unique to any political system. Throughout the world, men and women who have neither advocated nor committed acts of violence are often imprisoned and sometimes tortured for their beliefs. Amnesty International (Al) works to free what it calls “prisoners of conscience” the political prisoner who is persecuted by his government solely for advocating a peaceful change of policy or for expressing views offending those in authority. Since its formation in 1961, AI has helped free more than 8,500 individuals. Worldwide operations are coordinated by a staff of 40 researchers in London, England who pursue news of arrests, investigate cases of prisoners, and follow the political and legal activities in about 113 countries. They then dispense this information to the more than 97,000 members of Amnesty International in 78 countries. 4 The basic AI work unit is the adoption upoi\ “Urgent Action, who send telegrams to assist prisoners in extreme danger, when there is no time to go through the lengthy adoption process. There are currently almost 4,000 prisoners under adoption or investigation. During the year 1975-76, 1880 new prisoners were taken up and 1599 who had been adopted were released. “There is a turnover. Fortunately, there are always prisoners being released, but there are constantly new ones to take their place,” Members of Amnesty International are forbidden by its statutes to work on or publicize those prisoners in their own country. “This rule is intended to guarantee neutrality and safeguard those who are involved in AI,” explained Cox. “One of our very active members, Yuri Orlob, was arrested yesterday,in the Soviet Union,” he continued. AI groups are working on eight cases of American prisoners but, in accordance with its statutes, the American branch cannot make publicmuch information about them. The Amnesty International Report 1975-76, in nation by nation review of human rights, included a report on conditions in the United States: “People are not officially imprisoned because of their political views or actions or because of their ethnic origin. But in some cases it is difficult to avoid the suspicion that an individual’s imprisonment may be due to his political actions rather than to the crime he or she is alleged to have committed.” Martin Sostre, a black activist who has now been freed, was one such prisoner who was formerly adopted by an Amnesty , — group, consisting of about 10 to 20 people from one geographical area, who “adopt” three political prisoners.

This year’s yearbook will deal mainly with the changing concepts of education. The Buffalonian will be published for distribution on April 18, 1977. The cost to you will be $9.00 a copy. Revitalized yearbook published by students and advertisements that have been inundating the with announcements that production for another year’s Buffalonian has begun. But this particular yearbook will be a breaking point from the process and final product of the past few years. A joint venture of the Undergraduate Student Association (SA) and University Press, the Buffalonian is shaking up to be a revitalized publication, numbering three times the pages of its predecessor. One of the more significant changes in this yearbook is that it is the first in three years to be put together and published by a student group. Previously, the Buffalonian had been published by a New York City based photography concern whose contact with the University community was minimal. This year will also be the first to include group photographs of student clubs and teams. Laura Bartlett, editor of this year’s Buffalonian sums up her aspirations for the book in this way. “1 view this Yearbook as a historical record for people five and ten years from now to rediscover what it was like to be a student. I’ve already begun interviewing people for their impression of the campus, and I’m struck by the recurring references to the differences between students in the early ’70’s. I hope to catch the essence of that in this Yearbook.” Bartlett is also one of two managing editors of The Spectrum SA Student Activities and Services Director Pat Lovejoy is coordinating the efforts of SA. At this point, that means putting up posters and soliciting contributions from area businesses in an effort to keep the price of the Yearbook as low as possible. However, she sees a large part of her efforts coming in the months ahead. “Where last year’s book wasn’t mailed to those who ordered it until last September, we plan to have ours on sale in the Union by April.” Linda Encke, manager of University Press, is supervising the process of actually putting the yearbook together for the printer. “We provided the focal point for all of these plans to come together, she said. “The book looks to be a very exciting portrayal of the student body. I look forward to this working relationship in future years." University Press, a unit of Sub Board, provides composition and camera services to the University community. Pictures will continue to be taken until this Friday. February 18, at 361 Norton Hall. Posters University Women lobby for benefits Supreme Court’s ruling. by Carol O’Connor Special to The Spectrum Pregnancy as disability In writing for the majority of the court, Justice Rehnquist, also appointed by Richard Nixon, followed a 1974 California decision (Gedulig v. Aiello) that held that the exclusion of pregnancy disability coverage did not violate the California Equal Protection clause since it did not exclude anyone from coverage based on gender, but rather “merely” removed one physical condition from (CPS) Less than one week after the Dec. 7 U.S. Supreme Court decision denying pregnant workers the right to temporary disability benefits, representatives from 43 women’s professional, labor and lobbying groups formed the Coalition to End Discrimination Against Pregnant Workers. After an initial five-hour meeting at the University of Pennsylvania, the Coalition began a two-front assault. First, the women would attempt to reverse the Supreme Court’s ruling by lobbying lawmakers sympathetic to the rights of pregnant workers. Secondly, the women would attempt to insure through collective bargaining that companies not start taking advantage of the legal loophole provided them by the Burger Court. A December article in the Wall Street Journal says, “The ruling reinforces the growing impression that members of the business community are likely to get sympathetic hearing when they take crucial cases to the court headed by Chief Justice Burger, who was appointed by (former President) Nixon.” Next week. Senators Birch Bayh (D., Ind.), Edward Brooke (R., Mass.), Charles Mathias (R., Md.), and Representatives Pat Schroeder (D., Colo.), Augustus Hawkins (D., Calif.) and Elizabeth Holtzman (D., N.Y.), are expected to introduce legislation that would ban discrimination against pregnant workers and effectively reverse the — - „„ i Buffalonian T i The court wrote that the decision divides pregnant women and workers into two groups non-pregnant persons. Since the first group is made up of women and the second group made up. of both sexes, there is no risk from which men are protected and women aren’t, reasoned Justice Rehnquist. “There is no proof that the GE package is in fact worth more to men than women. It is impossible to find a gender based discriminatory effect in this scheme simply because women disabled as a result of pregnancy do not receive benefits; that is to say, gender-based discrimination does not result simply because an employer’s disability benefits plan is less than inclusive,” Rehnquist wrote. — Cries of outrage The decision brought immediate cries of outrage from the 43-member Coalition which said, “that —continued on page 18— jmmmmmmm Sub Board erie Y HEDKfll I coverage.

It was a downright shocking experience for some to discover the attitudes of people who hold influence in our University and over our administration. Their treatment of student representative David Brownstein is, at the very least, disrespectful, and at wrost, insulting. His remarks and suggestions are not taken seriously. George Measer's answer to one of Brownstein's statements, "Do I have to listen to this?" is typical of their attitude. Council member Phyllis Kelly correctly pointed out that this University's College Council was the first in SUNY to invite a student representative to attend their meetings, To the Editor. before they were compelled to do sp by law last year.

While sitting through our recent impromptu vacation, I received news of the death of an old friend, a U.B. student like myself. I had lost close contact in recent months with him, although I occasionally would meet him and speak with him on the off-campus block where we both lived. I had known him fairly well from the times when we had lived back in the dorms together. His death was no accident; it was planned, planned by himself. And while, my knowledge of what prompted this self-murder is not total, I was told by someone with more information that the individual “felt his life had no meaning.” I had always thought of my friend as being a rational person, and I knew well of his scholastic intelligence. And while this sort of incident doesn’t make front-page headlines, it taxed my own insight as to why such an event should occur. I hardly believe that my friend had lost his rationale in the time I had lost close contact with him; indeed I’ve accepted that he chose to end his life after some period of decision. When I casually sit back and think about this occurrence for a while, I vaguely can conceive of the wide diversity of human opinion there is in regard to life itself. For I remember the time I fought for two extra points on a test grade, and I’ll remember a peer of mine who felt the whole thing wasn’t even worth it. Gary — Wolfe — Books . . .

The recent brouhaha involving the SA (specifically Steve Spiegel) and the BSU is, in my opinion, an irrelevant issue. It raises a far more important question though. Does the SA deserve to exist? It spent $886,750.05 ($67.00 from 13,100 of us) last year. How many of us saw even a fraction of our sixty-seven bucks? The students, in relation to SA fall into three major categories; 1.) Professional and part-time hacks who control SA, receive stipends, run up enormous office ($93,352.05 including salaries) expenses, hurl insults at one another, and occasionally do something outside their own self-interest. 2.) Active members in strong minority organizations, like BSU and PODER, who are trying to wrest some of this money and power from SA but have succeeded only getting bad publicity for themselves and scaring off anyone who might be sympathetic to their cause. 3.) The great majority of us, who pay our fees and then watch with disgust or disinterest as an ambitious few fight over how our money will be used. We may be apathetic, but we’re not helpless. We can put our apathy to use by voting the SA out of existence. How? Simply vote for a party ticket which would promise to return the money to the feepayers. Surely someone has the courage to run on such a ticket. , There will be drawbacks, of course. There will be no sports, no S.C.A.T.E., no Sunshine House, and no SA speakers. Worst of all, the biggest moneywaster, Sub-Board Inc. ($295,000 spent on only God and Ketter know what!), is out of our reach, so we would only get about $50 or so apiece. But that’s $50 to spend as we choose. Low attendance at sporting and other events gives me confidence in student apathy; let the SA hacks play games with someone else’s money. i mvr> veiwe r a sew SlRu. Jtosr OtiflL-POLL MV AMP FOMPOJT rr wA-swr lest HV BIS SISTER T.D. The PLO’s alternative To the Editor. The Palestine Liberation Organization has frequently expounded its fallacious goal of creating a democratic, secular Palestine in the place of Israel. It is a thin veil indeed that disguises their true intentions but first let a few facts be known. In 1922 Great Britain divided “Mandated Palestine” which was placed under her auspices by the League of Nations in 1920, creating the Emirate of Transjordan on the East Bank of the Jordan River. In 1947 the U.S. Partition Resolution provided for the establishment of a second Palestinian state, but the indigenous Arabs and their belligerent allies found this to be unacceptable. Today, almost two thirds of all Palestinians are Jordanian citizens, and most Jordanians are Palestinians. Yet the radical PLO insists that they have no country of their own. Even the most superficial scrutiny reveals that their plan for a new secular state is nothing more thaw! a euphemism for the destruction of Israel along with its Jewish population. One need only study the Palestinian National Covenant to see that this is indeed the case. Article 6 of the 1968 document states that only Jews living in Palestine' before 1917 would be recognized as citizens of the new state. (Note that in the 1964 version the cutoff year was 1947.) Some 2.5 million Jewish aliens would have to leave. Article 9 boasts the principle that “Armed struggle is the only way to liberate Palestine...” Article 19 STOLE IT declares the establishment of Israel as “null and purge the Zionist presence from Palestine;” Article 3 assures us that after the “liberation,” the Palestinian Arab people “will exercise self determination solely according to its own will and choice.” As if these “democratic, secular statements” weren’t enough, the PLO loses any remaining credibility by stating in Article 20 that “the claim of a historical or spiritual tie between Jews and Palestine does not tally with .’’ historical realities Such ignorance is unworthy of comment. And isn’t it comforting to know that the Lebanese newspaper Al-Anwar reporter representatives of the PLO in Beirut for a 1970 meeting as saying that this idea of a democratic, secular state is just a propaganda slogan, and that any new state would be Arab-Palestinian, and not binational? Besides, who has ever heard of a democratic Arab state? The two words are practically antonyms. The list of contradictions is endless. Even if Jews were not forced to flee the country, reproductive trends alone would lead to void,” while Article 15 promises “to . In response to Wm. Dennis Huber’s letter, “Communism The Enemy” {The Spectrum, Jan. 28), I would like to draw attention to what Mr. Huber considers facts. At least Mr, Krehbiel, whose articles Mr. Huber criticized, used constructive evidence to support his argument. Whether I agree with Mr. Krehbiel’s analysis or not is irrelevant. I find his articles very informative. In contrast, Mr. Huber’s letter lacks information in support of his argument. When Mr. Huber labeled Communism “the enemy” and claimed that it has oppressed more citizens than the United States, he merely reiterated the same story I have been oppressed with all my life. Another story that I keep hearing every year is (x)PG im\& HE V TH£ TOO, . cnus it kmir Vie zoo, rr Ii0fi6 SCHOOL- nff M* MW »*weAtr. njr Arab domination in short time.

"Really don't mind if you sit this one out. My words but a wisper your deafness a SHOUT. I may make you feel but I can’t make you think. Your sperms in the gutter, your love’s in the sink. So you ride yourselves over the fields and - You make all your animal deals and Your wise men don't know how it feels To be Thick as a Brick ” -J. Tull Dear executive vice president Speigel, First let me compliment you on your epic opinion. What you lack in morality, you more than make up for in articulateness. The ability to speak and write well are necessary tools for all students at this University and especially so for SA officers. But like any tool, articulateness and what it is used for all depend on the person Using it. The fact stands: You are very articulate. The question is: What are you using it for? Are you writing your Guest Opinion as “executive vice president” or as Steve Speigel, "good citizen or as Steve Speigel “beating victim or as Steve Speigel “great white hope" or as Steve Speigel “reckless powertripping politician" and has-been before his term ” ” is finished." Question: What ever happened to Steve Speigel defense” in this case, I ask that you as executive vice president of SA to explain it to them in another Guest Opinion. The “Fact” of the matter is that there is no difference! “As was reported, yes I did receive stitches above my eye, yes, my cornea was scratched, yes I received several cuts, bruises and contusions to my face, arms, legs and body, and yes, my back was injured and has not yet healed.” Now why is it that when it comes to personal injuries not one gory detail is spared, but yet you see fit to never admit the embarrassing detail that .Robert Tribble never touched you. You know he has been suspended for nothing don’t you even care? “One of the most disturbing things to me about this whole incident is that many people we have been working with all year, because they are minority Students, are automatically defending the three defendants. Their recent behavior has been military, abusive and uncooperative, and we have even been accused of every wrongful deed since the Scottsboro Boys case. I can understand the pressure for unify, but in this case it is very much misguided. To succumb to pressure to defend men who are wrong merely because they are Black is self-defeating. To defend solely because of the color of one’s skin can only serve to propagate negative stereotypes about the people they represent. What are needed here are individuals who have the courage to make up their own minds rather than those who find it easier to follow. “Executive Vice President of all the students? No answer? Well, I’ll tell you! First of all, the best place to start is not with some silly article dated January 24, but to start from the day the Schwarts-Speigel administration came to power. Communications problems were brewing lopg before January 24 and you damned well know it. TheV started in mid-March of 1976, and guess what administration yes, yours. You and was just coming to power then President Schwarts have never worked well as a team primarily a result of your being elected from different parties and more importantly your differing personalities. These resulted in the following: 1. Steve Schwarts, a nice fellow who gets along with everybody but a political jellyfish unable to exercise sufficient authority to keep his administration — — — — in line. 2. You, Steve Speigel! The Joe McCarthy of SUNYAB who with little more than innuendo and connections (namely Jellyfish and the Editor-in-Chief of this two-bit scandal sheet whom I will save for last) was able to make an unfortunate incident where fault fell on all sides (you received an “ass whipping” for Christmas but evidently you had been asking for it all semester ) balloon into the campus media event and political side show of the semester. “The statement about Robert Tribble is not a statement of fact, but solely the contention of the defense: and yet the fact that three witnesses placed all three defendants as taking an active part in the assault was omitted from this article.” Apparently, Mr. Executive vice president, your recklessness, powertripping and desire for revenge know no limits. The above quote from your Guest Opinion, when translated from legalese to standard English, says that three witnesses have identified Robert Tribble, George Thomas and John Lott as taking an active part in the “ass whipping.” Though Ms. Sullivan was wrong to omit this, aren’t you also wrong in not publicly admitting that Robert Tribble did not take part in the “ass whipping?” Clearly you did not forget since you and The Spectrum saw fit to refer to this minor point as “the statement about John Tribble.” What is the statement? dammit! You say that this is not a “fact” but a contention of the defense. For those readers who don’t understand the difference between “fact” and “contention of the Page ten . The Spectrum . Wednesday, 16 February 1977 by Ed Guity Ordinarily 1 wouldn’t answer to such extraordinarily absurd allegations, made by an obviously disturbed person. He is totally aware of the gravity of the situation here at the University and is evidentally trying to add fuel to the fire. This type of intimidation and harrasment is what prompts people to the point of violence. Ever since I can remember there has always been the constant reminder that he is better, more majestic than minority students. And we are accused of harrasment! What about the mental anguish that goes on inflicted by these sick individuals? Since when can an individual be ruled out of order, strictly on the biases of one arrogent individual? The subtle degradation that goes on in the office on an everyday basis. I’m not here to make any enemies, I’m here to make friends, establish the type of contacts that you are trying to establish. I must say to all of you, try to understand why people do the things they do. I’m not the type who writes lengthy letters filled with lengthy lies. I’m trying to let you and everyone else see themselves. I’m trying to let you ask yourselves the question, Am I really a liberal or do I have racist tendencies past normal? This is all a part of education. Until we start looking at such issues with logic and reason, the situation will remain the same. In closing, I would like to call for the immediate reinstatement of John Lott, Robert Tribble and George Thomas to the University of Buffalo. Ed Guity is SA Minority A/fairs coordinator. The fact stands: You are very articulate. The question is; What are you using it for? I think you have made a very good point here and as an individual who just so happens to be black, let me be the first to congradulate you publicly for pointing this out. I agree 100 percent with the exception of one of the words you use to describe their recent behavior military! The people and the organization you describe above are a lot of things but they are not military. The word does not describe them it describes you! And an even better word that describes you is Fascist! As a matter of fact that’s why I think you used that word in the first place because “military behavior” is Fascist behavior, and you, Mr. executive vice president (of all the students?) wanted a certain ethnic group to associate the term “military behavior” with the facism of Adolf Hitler! It is regrettable that you see fit to whip up reactionary and facist paranoia in this manner. I am sure that the Jewish student community is intelligent enough to see this obvious — — play! And as' for you, Mr. Editor-in-Chief, I think that you should rename your paper the SUNYAB Tattler. I would like to ask you a question which I hope you will answer in the following edition of SUNYAB Tattler. Most “Guest Opinions” have the.ir authors’ opinion (obviously). After reading executive vice president Speigel’s “Guest Opinion” over and over again, 1 still couldn’t find his opinion. Is it possible that there is no opinion to be found in his "Guest Opinion?” Now! if executive vice president Speigel didn’t have an opinion on any specific subject (no matter how general) why would he be writing a "Guest Opinion” in your paper? I also request that you address this question to every person that works for the SUNYAB Tattler, to every person in the executive committee (and 1 am hoping Jellyfish and executive vice president, Speigel will answer) and Dr. Ketter! 1 think that executive vice president Speigel’s “Guest Opinion” is not an opinion but simply a statement of his side of the story (and to which he is entitled) but as such a statement of his side of the story. He should never have been allowed to print it under the auspices of “Guest Opinion” or for that — — matter the SUNYAB Tattler. And it’s about time that you stood up and stop letting him dominate SUNYAB’s mass media as Jellyfish lets him dominate his administration. You knew that his opinion would stir up more controversy and hatred just as in Monday’s SUNYAB Tattler you knew that the BSU audit would stir up more controversy. For god’s sake hasn’t there been — enough! Question: Why does the BSU audit occupy such a prominent spot in Monday’s Tattlerl Could it be that showing that after all of this bullshit between the BSU and the SA that executive vice president Speigel’s story really was correct and this professional audit would remove any doubt thus executive vice president Speigel, Jellyfish and the Tattler would all come up smell like roses and the BSU smelling like shit? And while I’m at it, let me ask the BSU a question; How could you be so stupid as to let this hodge-podge clique of mediocracy do this to you and by implication us. The people in the upper echelons of the SA, the BSU and The Spectrum are pathetically inept and should resign immediately. It is they who are responsible for this farce. It is they who gave it media-event status. It is they who have caused all of this trouble amongst us. They are all ego tripping madmen. Throw them out. Throw them all out. 1 hope all of this shit will be remembered on the first Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of next month when new SA elections will be held. Please vote! I hope that after the new elections we can forget about these stupid assholes and the giant turd they collectively formed. — �TRB. After 2000 years of the Christian era two rival superpowers have emerged, either of whom can blast the other off the earth by mysterious nuclear weapons. The game is to see whether they do this and commit suicide, or whether they overcome their mutual hate and do what is so obviously to their self-interest. It is as pretty a test of the survival potential of homosapiens as you will find; we can all take an interest in it. So now we are met in the overcrowded auditorium of the Executive Office Building on Pennsylvania Avenue to watch the latest scene. The room is too small for 1 the reporters and they jam the sides waiting for President Carter. The floor slants downward, the carpet is tan, there is a little stage at the end with a lectern and presidential seal, and behind me I count 17 motion picture and TV cameras. It is a fairly low-ceilinged room that heats up with bodies and spotlights warm as a television booth. Excitement builds as we near 2:30; he has been president now about three weeks; he has been interviewed by four reporters from the news agencies and proved relaxed and competent without saying much; he has given his fireside chat in a cardigan sweater and recapitulated rather fuzzy pledges made in the campaign. He has issued a pardon to Vietnam war evaders; and he has taken a series of symbolic steps denoting simplicity and togetherness, including that nice inaugural walk from the Capitol. The Carter preliminaries are all but over now; real action is required; we have come to the end of the beginning. — At the dot of 2:30 a short, erect man in blue shirt, bold tie and gray suit walks on the stage; without the usual sonorous announcement, “The President,”' we awkwardly rise; he motions us down, and then President Carter starts his first press conference without any preliminary time-consuming statement. It is dominated by that little matter I mentioned at the beginning, the question of whether we can control the spiraling nuclear arms race and survive. He is asked about the confirmation of Paul Warnke as chief U.S. delegate to negotiate with Russia on arms limitation. Wamke’s notions about negotiations expressed in Foreign Policy magazine in 1975, alarmed hard-liners. They boil down to this: President Nixon asserted repeatedly that he couldn’t negotiate successfully with Moscow if we went to the bargaining table as the world’s second strongest military power. Warnke came up with a thought that apparently never occurred to Nixon or to the Pentagon that we had persuaded the Russians, too, that they could not “bargain the successfully” unless, they were strongest military power. Warnke put it simply: - “If we insist on remaining Number One, because there are incalcuable risks in being Number Two, then the Soviets have the wherewithal to escape that subordinate position.” He said they would seek to be Number One for the same reason we wanted to be. As Warnke added, every proposal to bargain away nuclear threats simply stimulates the determination to be Number One in “a mindless buildup.” What to do? His idea chills the Pentagon and stuns the Washington-based “Coalition for a Democratic Majority” that has been circulating an anonymous attack on him among senators; Why, not test the Russians, he asks; why not tell them what we are doing and make a gesture of restrain “while calling for matching restraint” for them? Is not this a terrifying proposal? It shows how soft he is. He brazenly spells it out: “If the Soviet Union responds by some significant slowing of its own strategic arms buildup, we can at the end of the first six months announce additional moves.” What nonsense; it is all but treasonable! And here is this man Jimmy Carter at his first presidential press conference declaring that Warnke is qualified and that he believes the Senate will confirm him “overwhelming.” Worse, Carter proposes to side-step obstacles that have held up Salt II .treaty agreement for two years and actually makes a little gesture of conciliation here and now, just as Warnke urged, each side to agree to notify the other in advance whenever it plans to test-fire an ICBM, and maybe a three or four year cessation of nuclear tests. He appears to be negotiating right from the press conference. Warnke is being interrogated by a Senate committee even while Mr. Carter sees the press. Enemies are trying to grab some extraneous issue: how did Daniel Ellsberg get the top secret copy of the Pentagon Papers in 1971? Warnke had a copy, transferred it to a high security vault at the Rand Corporation when he left the Johnson Administration (where he was assistant secretary of Defense); two former aides, Morton Halperin and Leslie Gelb, jointly authorized access Cot EpiBe'rg Whs Wamke involved? sdesn ready to grasp at anything. Confirmation c seems inevitable. The half hour is up, the first press conference is over. How did he do? Very well, I thought. I shall wait to hear the definitive judgment of John Osborne, but in the meantime he seemed to me clear, crisp and confident and master of the occasion. He was splendidly briefed. Kennedy for wit, Ford for warmth, FDR for virtuosity, but f6r technical command, Jimmy Carter. It is also gratifying to feel that in this Russian negotiating business he is probably right. Mr. Carter proposes to have two press conferences a month I hope he does. Whether he can take the adversary relationship remains to be seen. FDR had two a week; Richard Nixon let five months pass without one. Walter Lippmann called them, “not a privilege but an organic necessity.” A corps of knowledgeable journalists is ready to question. If Mr. Carter is serious about getting his views to the public there is no better way. “Of all the processes of government in all the lands of the world this is the single most fascinating, absorbing... and daring,” said Commentator Howard K. Smith, returning to America, way back in 1955. There is nothing resembling it, he added, “anywhere in the world;” the English cabinet, of course, undergoes question-time an hour a day, four days a week in parliament: they are the executive in a collective body. But here the president speaks for the entire executive branch, in an ad lib performance. Wilson was first. It has been a trying experience for many. But Washington is a healthier city, I think, when the president submits regularly to this examination. ' - ; Sliced turkey, bacon, lettuce and tomato served on a miner’s loaf. 2.25 II.

Page eleven | �TAP form redone with student input by Karen Bjomland Special to The Spectrum (SASU) The 1977—78 TAP application form has been improved, simplified, and streamlined by the Higher Services Corporation largely as a result of recommendations by State University students. Citing a previous HESC claim that students would be included in the re-vamping of the TAP form, SASU legislative director, Jowl Packer, pushed for and has been successful in instituting TAP form revisions that would directly affect SUNY students. As a result, HESC extended their deadline to draft the new form and students were included in meetings of the Advisory Council of the HESC. The most obvious change in the TAP form is the structure itself. HESC has recommended, with SASU approval, a new form in which the financial emanicpation form (Schedule B) and the section regarding other family members (Schedule A) is included with the TAP application as separate attachments. In the past Schedule B was not included with th TAP form and Schedule A only added to the clutter of information on the main form. Both Schedule A and B are special sections not filled out by every student. The TAP application form also sports a peel-off label similar to those on federal income tax forms which will insure speedy processing. However, the school code will not be printed on it. One of the problems in the past has been that students failed to check the student school code number on the label and the form had to be reprocessed. fn November, HESC president, Eileen Dickenson, recommended omitting the instruction booklet from TAP applications, but pressure from SASU has retained the instruction booklet as well as calling for improved directions within the form itself. At SASU’s suggestions, the form will also include a self-addressed, stamped postcard. This postcard will be used to notify students that their applications have been received and/or other materials are needed. Other improvements incorporated by HESC with prodding by SASU include numbered items, clarifications on which signatures are required, and less computations in the income record section. The handy work copy has also been retained for the student’s convenience and the financial emanicpation form no longer requires notarized parental signature. Two further points of interest; the section requiring social security and public assistance information has been omitted and according to the Governor’s budget, a new section will require Veterans and BEOG — ' benefits information. The new application form, slated for an April 1 issue date is simpler, more comprehensive and less likely to fall prey to errors that delay processing. f*ge twelve The Spectrum Wednesday, 16 February 1977 . .

SINAI HOSPITAL OF CLEVELAND University Circle — Cleveland, Ohio 44106 �Commentary Gandhi’s promise of face lifting’ is a sham 4 Editor’s note: The Mrs. Gandhi has hit the headlines again. After 18 months of naked fascist rule her government now wants “to renew its mandate from the people.” Parliament has been dissolved. Elections are to be held. Political priaouci ■ve to be released. The pr#sg_Jil e free from censorship. And all this will finally uphold “the fair name of India as a land committed to the path of reconciliation, peace and progress.” And the critics can now rest in silence and with relief. The abberation was only short-lived, and it was necessary. Let no one raise a finger toward India anymore! But was it really “a short-lived abberation?” Is India returning to the pre-June 1975 days? Are the days of fascist dictatorship over? The answer to all these questions is no. The latest step by the Gandhi government is a careful and tactical move in order to give some face-lifting to the fascist dictatorship and to provide it with some measure of formal legitimacy. After 18 months of open fascistic rule, such a move became both necessary and possible. “If the formal declaration of the ‘Emergency’ is withdrawn, it will only follow when sufficient preparation to maintain fascist dictatorship through other means has been made. If an election is held it will be like the one held by the Thieu clique during its dying years in Vietnam. The speedy constitutional amendments, the increase in police force, already increased more than 52 times since 1951, all-round development of paramilitary organizations, dismissal and transfer of defiant or non-cooperative officials and the curtailment of political activities of opposition parties and trade union activities of workers show that even if the ‘Emergency’ formally ends, dictatorship will still run amuck.” * All this, and much more, has been done in the last 18 months to make sure that the dictatorial form of rule continues even if some formal relaxation becomes necessary. Take, for example, the case of press censorship. What difference does it make if the government now says that the censorship has been lifted. It is a hollow gesture. With the Prevention of Publication of Objectionable Matter Act, passed during the Emergency, who needs censorship! The Act gives such sweeping powers to the government, and defines the “objectionable matter” so broadly that the press is left with no freedom whatsoever. According to this definition, anything which “brings into hatred or contempt or excites disaffection towards the government” or which is “defamatory of the President, the Vice President, the Prime Minister, the Speaker of the House, or the Governor of a State” (among many other things) is objectionable and could lead to the closure of a paper. Not only this, the amended Constitution has placed this Act in the so-called Ninth Schedule of the Constitution, which means that it cannot be challenged in any court of law. Press censorship has thus become a permanent feature of India. Furthermore, during the emergency the Press Council of India, an independent body which guaranteed freedom of press and Face lifting With an almost total erosion of government’s credibility in people’s minds, with the Gandhi posters smeared on the streets and her apperance jeered at in movie houses, with increased confrontations between people’s forces and the police, with the enormous growth of organized resistance against fascist dictatorship involving larger and larger sections of the population, including members of the government’s own bureaucracy, and with the growing adverse public opinion in the international community which has been increasingly taking the shape of organized protest by the working people in some parts of the world with all this, it was obvious that some face-lifting had become - - necessary. But all this wouldn’t have still brought about the latest move by the Gandhi government had it also not been possible for it to do so. During the last 18 months the government has undertaken TONITE Wednesday DRINK n’ DROWN with JAMBO • 1c BEER Thursday, • 10c MIXED DRINKS ALICE FAY REWETHER Number 1 Rock Band) (Cleveland Ohio's Friday & Saturday Sunday nite 2 BIG SHOWS!! to silence the liberal critics, at home and abroad, and to appease the US dominated western imperialism. It is an attempt to further deceive the people by trying to rehabilitate the “democratic” image of Indira Gandhi and her government. Its effect will be to camouflage the dictatorship by giving it some kind of a formal legitimacy. There is no doubt that Indira Gandhi and her party will not only win the election but will perahps win with even a greater majority than in view of the she has now weak, broken up, and highly disorganized nature of parliamentary opposition and in view also of the powerful and terrorizing force which the Congress party has amassed for itself. attempt sufficient measures to insure all the key aspects of the fascist rule are adequately institutionalized. Here it is important to recall what we in IP AN A said about this seven months ago: following commentary was written by the Indian People’s Association in North America (IPANA). - - TRIUMPH (Canada's top recording stars) Plus Stormin DARK AFTER 6104 S. Transit Road - Resistors set free? What about the claim of releasing political prisoners? By the government’s own declaration, only those not charged with “specific crimes” will be released. What crimes? Will the people who have bravely resisted forcible sterilization, or the demolition of their meagre homes by police, or the burning down of their huts and crops by the thugs of the landlords and moneylenders, or the ordinary working people who have resisted the taking away of their hard-won rights, or the many government employees who have refused to carry out the will any of anti-people policies these people be released? Obviously not. Will the tens of thousands of political prisoners held in Indian jails for many years now be released? Of course not. On the contrary their arrests continue unabated. For example, the January 22, 1977 issue of the Free Press Journal (a Bombay daily) which carries the front page headline “Emergency Relaxed” also carries on the same front page a news item about the detention of “5 city Naxalites.” It is clear that only such leaders of parliamentary opposition who under intimidation have undertaken an “oath” of good conduct and will fulfill the ornamental task of her Majesty’s Loyal Opposition are to be set free. The actual fighters for people’s rights, people’s well-being and dignity, will continue to be labelled as “criminals” and held indefinitely in jail. — ensured fairness and high journalistic standards, was permanently abolished. In order to further control the press, the Emergency rule forced the merger of four independent news agencies into one and brought it under direct government control. So much for the lifting of censorship! Forced sterilization of people, to take another example, was not just a passing whim of the Emergency period. Both the central as well as many state governments have already passed stringent laws which require people to go through this fascistic invasion of their private lives. End of Constitution The enactment of the Bonus Act in 1975 which did away with the important gains made by the working people through many years of struggle, and the many governmental ordinances issued during the Emergency period which have severely curtailed the rights of the organized workers, further indicates how the fascist dictatorship has managed to already institutionalize its anti-people policies. Then, of course, there are the well-known amendments to the Constitution itself. So drastic and far-reaching were the changes introduced that one critic said “the Constitution has not been amended, or mended, it has in effect been ended.” The fundamental rights of Indian citizens (like the right to freedom of speech, expression, movement, association, etc.), at least formally guaranteed by the Constitution so far, have been virtually done away with. Instead, a set of ten “fundamental duties” have been added. The independence of the judiciary has been drastically curtailed. The Executive branch of the government has been given supreme powers, including the power to further amend the Constitution itself through a fh® Pre siden tfel Constitution has been turned into a tool for consolidating and perpetuating the fascist rule in India. Characteristically, and reminiscent of fascism of earlier days, a new word has been added to the Preamable which declares India to be a “Socialist republic!” Snap elections In addition to all this, the last year-and-a-half has witnessed a most high-handed and ruthless attempt to break up or to weaken oppositional forces and to consolidate the fascist rule of Indira Gandhi. A large number of government employees as well as members of judiciary were either transferred to ineffective places or outrightly dismissed if they were unwilling to carry out the government policies. We know what happened in Gujarat and Tamil Nadu the only two States which had non-Congressional ministries at the time of the declaration of Emergency. By one high-handed executive fiat or the other, the two defying ministries were eventually dismissed and the States brought under direct Congressional rule. The general populace has been subjected to severe intimidation and terror through vastly expanded police, para-military, and intelligence forces, and through the fascist goons of Sanjay Gandhi’s Youth Congress. Many large trade unions in the country which were traditionally under left and progressive influence have been through broken up intimidation, arrests, murders, and and burning down of offices brought under the control of the Congress dominated Indian National Trade Union Congress. It is thus clear that during the last 18 months the Gandhi government has sufficiently institutionalized the fascist character of its rule. Calling for snap elections at this opportune ,4ifne is nothing more than a tactical and farcical JnoV-e.llisan. - - — - Wednesday, Gandhi and Hitler It is a sham relaxation of the Emergency. And it is going to be sham elections. There is a significant and illustrative parallel in history. After being appointed Chancellor of Germany by Hindenburg in January 1933, Hitler on the one hand widely propagated his demagogical 25-point economic programme (quite similar to Indira and Sanjay Gandhi’s 15-point programme) and on the other unleashed a most pervasive and widespread terror in the country. A ruthless purge in the party, outlawing the Communists after accusing them of setting the Reichstag fire, rounding up all the suspected enemies of the regime and putting them in concentration camps, the roving youth gangs terrorizing the all this happened before people the 1934 election when 88% of the voters were hoodwinked to, give absolute power (presidency as well as the chancellorship) to % , Hitler!

Koeppel scored two goals for the Bulls and MacLean picked up three assists, while leading many of the Buffalo rushes. “I just saw an opening, and nobody was there, so I took the puck up myself,” said MacLean of his new found rushing After the hockey Bulls defeated Oswego 4-3 last Saturday Johnny Moore night, goalie commented that the score could have been much higher had he and his teammates played up to their capabilities. On Sunday they did, swamping the Lakers 8-2 in the second game of the two-game set played at the Tonawanda Sports Center. The Bulls Division 11 record now stands at 10-4, and with only one divisional game . remaining (a make-up against weak-sister Brockport State), increasing their chances of being one of the eight teams selected for the playoffs. (Monday’s issue of incorrectly The Spectrum reported twelve teams would be 1% I selected.) Gang Once again, it's time to honor Ray Gruarin as Athlete-of-the-Week. Gruarin, who had earned the honor once last semester by picking up eight assists in one game, has done it again, except this time his big contribution is goals. In the big series against Oswego last weekend, Gruarin picked up five goals to lead the Bulls to a two-game sweep of the series. Gruarin also leads the team in scoring with 18 goals and 29 assists for 47 points. Honorable mention this week belongs to wrestler Dave Mitchell, who picked up his sixth win in a row over the weekend, to freshman swimmer Jim Brenner, who set the school record for the 1000 freestyle Friday night, and to hustling women's basketball forward Paula Hills, who had nine rebounds in each of two games this weekend, and 15 points against Oswego. leader in Sunday’s was star center Ray “Tuffy” Gruarin, who bagged the three goal hat trick and set up his teammates for two other tallies. The night before, Gruarin had scored two goals, giving him a weekend. Not seven point surprisingly, Gruarin was selected as the first star of both games. “There’s no doubt about it, massacre playing outstanding Tuffy’s hockey.

Koeppel set up Gruarin for the first goal of the game (on the first shot of the evening) at the thirty-one second mark, when he fed Gruarin with a neat pass to the slot. Tuffy quickly skimmed a bullet past surprised Laker goalie Steve Paluseo. Oswego goalie gets beat Less than five minutes later the Bulls scored again, with Koeppel getting his first of the night and eighth of the season. With Ron Gabrielli of Oswego serving a four minute roughing penalty, the Bulls began applying heavy pressure on Paluseo. After a flurry of shots at the Laker goal, Costello sent the puck to Gruarin, who circled behind the cage. He fed the disc to Koeppel about ten feet inside the blue line, and the Buffalo defenseman blasted a slapper high into the met. “On the first one (of his two goals), I thought ti was going to be high. I though Paluseo would’ve stopped it. He’s an excellent goalie,” said Koeppel afterwards. Excellent goalie Paluseo missed one more shot in the period, as Gruarin made a quick goalmouth conversion of a MacLean pass at 14:18. The Lakers finally got on the scoreboard . at- 17:56, when sophomore defenseman Robbie Olsen picked up a loose puck at the Buffalo blueline, decoyed Gary jB,uffa(fl TruihpfheUer and Paul Pitman, and fired a high shot past Moore. In the second period, the Bulls took advantage of three penalties to increase their lead to 6-1. The prettiest goal of the period was center Frank Anzalone’s tally at 7:56, when he led a three-on-none Buffalo break into the Oswego State zone. Anzalone grabbed a loose puck at center ice, and with half of the Buffalo team trailing him, skated in alone on Paluseo.

It made little difference to the Bulls however, that Paluseo was replaced by frosh netminder Mike McNulty in the third period, as the Buffalo shooters cashed in two more times. Overall, the Bulls scored on eight of their 42 shots, while limiting the usually potent Lakers offense to just 27 shots. Most of the Buffalo defensive work was actually done in offensive zone by hard-checking wingers and alert defensemen. According to Buffalo blueliner Gemmer, Wright had Dan explained the Oswego breakout pattern skaters, and to his cautioned them to be wary of it. “One defenseman would pass it to the other in the corner, and then cut to the front of the net. The other guy would pass it back to him, and they’d come.out,” said Gemmer. “We let them break out too easily yesterday (Saturday). Today we watched the defense so they couldn’t break out.” ‘A licking’ The Bulls only pfbblem in the game was that of taking too many Fortunately stupid penalties. though, the Buffalo penalty killers were superb on this occasion, and though shorthanded eight different times, yielded no goals to the Laker power play. “If we presented them (Lakers) with any kind of a chance to get in the game, it was with foolish penalties,” said Wright. “Sooner or later, especially if we’re fortunate enough to reach the playoffs, we’ll get burned by them.” “On the other side, it is advantageous to have a team it that’s able to kill penalties causes a mental breakdown on the part of the other team.” Perhaps the most important thing that Wright said after the game was only indirectly related to the game itself. “The best thing about this,” said Wright, “is that they’re enjoying playing.” Enjoying it, indeed. The Bulls are loving it right now.

Cousins plans to change her strategy a rom now on. “I have lots of people who can contribute, and I’m j to use them,” she said. Cousins made one change by moving co-captain Nan Harvey from ard to point guard. In this way. Cousins hopes to have a more nt offense that will work for better shots. Tonight, the women travel to Brockport to take on the Golden ;s. Brockport has a strong team (they have beaten Houghton) but ins hopes to overcome any advantages Brockport might have by ng up her defenses. Cousins would especially like to win this game ist her alma mater. “The kids are really up for it,” she said. “If the could pull Brockport off, it would be a big lift for us.” Mailmen throughout the world have trudged through rain, sleet and hail. But while Buffalo letter-carriers hung up their bags this past week because of the hazardous weather, Buffalo’s wrestlers packed theirs and went on the road in search of victories against Oswego, Ohio State and the University of Cincinnati. When the Bulls returned, they brought back two victories and an optimistic outlook for the rest of the season. Last week’s action seems to be the catalyst which has sparked the Bulls out of their long winter hibernation. Quick start Buffalo’s grapplers overwhelmed a weaker Oswego team, 31-6. The Bulls’ Tony Oliver! opened the match up by defeating his Oswego counterpart 9-2. Oliveri’s victory set the tone for the rest of the match. Next, Ray Pfeifer pinned Laker Tom Wilson in a near record twenty-six seconds. Solid performances by Ed Tyrrell, Gene Tundo, Kirk Anderson, Bob Martineck and Dave Mitchell followed, and the final score was beefed up by Oswego’s forfeit to Tom Gravell. However, the Bulls’ Rich Bopp lost his close contest to Andy Yokopovich because of the one point riding time rule. A glimmer of hope in the Bulls’ future now seems apparent. In its overwhelming victory over Oswego, the Bulls beat a team that narrowly lost to Buffalo’s Eastern Wrestling League opponent. Lock Haven State. Earlier this year, Lock Haven simply “outgunned” the Buffalo squad. But against Oswego, Michael said, “We were the better team . . we went out and did it.” He continued, “Our performance has been up to par. There have been no surprises, it just took time.” When the Bulls traveled to Columbus, Ohio to compete in a triangular match with Ohio State and an the University of Cincinnati, the Bulls gained the inferior wallopping While impressive split. narrowly Cincinnati squad 28-11, the Bulls were college sport the perennial nipped 19-16 by powerhouse Ohio State Buckeyes. Group win “Our boys wrestled well as a group, said Michael. “They hustled and gave all they had to give, win, lose or draw.” Indeed, the Bulls did wrestle well of as a group. In fact, the Bulls have won three out their last four matches, which gives them a seasonal record of 6-7. The Bulls’ recent upsurge can be attributed to hard work, but many individuals on the squad have been the benefactors of the Bulls newfound success. Kirk Anderson has been the only consistently victorious Bull throughout the season. But Bob Martineck, Dave Mitchell and Ray Pfeifer have begun to show sings of Anderson’s consistent ways. “These guys have been superb,” Michael said. Pfeifer, Mitchell and Anderson each accounted for double victories in the match, while single victories were registered by John Hughes, Gary Devin, Tony Oliveri and Gene Tundo against Cincinnati, and Martineck against Ohio State. “Ohio State has a good competitive team. They are in the Big Ten and if we had won just one more irtdividual match, we could have beaten them.” towards the future, Michael Looking commented, “We were plagued by inconsistency early in the year, but now the boys have wrestled more consistently.” This weekend, the Bulls will be traveling down to Canton, to compete in the New York State Invitational Tournament. Currently, the Bulls are ranked third in the state, behind Syracuse and Brockport, but Michael says, “It’s within our grasp to win the State Championship.” The Bulls are the current New York State Champions and have copped the title five of the six previous years.

Wednesday, 16 February 1977 �Sportspaige N by Paige Miller Last weekend, the hockey Bulls played an important two game series against the Oswego Great Lakers. It was college hockey at its best, to coin a phrase, and could have a definite bearing on Buffalo’s chances of' making the playoffs. The two games were publicized in The Spectrum and on posters around campus. So, how were the games attended? Not very well, I’m afraid. The official attendance figures for both games were under one although thousand, some observers disputed that. In any event, out of a school of 25,000 students, in a hockey-crazy town like Buffalo, and considering that the games were free to students, what could possibly be keeping the people away? Apathy is a good answer. Someone once reportedly discovered a cure for apathy, but no one was interested. The fans who did attend certainly were vocal enough in voicing their approval of the Bulls’ play they weren’t apathetic; in fact, they almost went nuts. But they are just a very few. — Another reason why the people might have stayed away is that the planned bus service to the rink never materialized. According to Dennis Delia, the Inter-Residence Council (IRC) and the Student Association were supposed to split the cost of the busses. IRC has not yet come through with their part of the money so the busses were cancelled. Co-ordinator of Men’s Intercollegiate Athletics Ed Muto acknowledged that traveling to the rink might be a deterrent to some people. “When we do go off campus,” Muto said, “we’re going to have to provide buses.” But Muto was really at a loss to explain the poor attendance. “We’re really putting things on for the students,” Muto said. “I think the students should support the teams. “I could understand if the wasn’t winning,” he continued, noting that that wasn’t the case with hockey. '‘And I think you should support your school team, regardless. After all, it’s your team.” If chauvinism isn’t a good enough reason to motivate most people, perhaps the fact that Buffalo has played some of the team top schools in the country could attract people. However, the Hartwick soccer team, ranked number two in the nation at the time, played at Rotary Field before about fifty people. The Penn State wrestling team, also one of the top teams in the nation, attracted at most 300 fans despite massive pregame publicity. And Syracuse, ranked eighteenth in the nation in basketball played Buffalo at the Memorial Auditorium before a sparse crowd and Providence, ranked sixteenth, was playing in the second game of that doubleheader. Apparently, this University will be saddled with lack of fan interest for some time to come, When will it change? “I don’t know,” Muto said. But you can bet he was hoping it would be soon � • * * • Miscellaneous: Muto said that The Spectrum was doing a better job than in the past in helping to attract people to the games, but felt that we should be doing a lot more. and At home hockey basketball games, there is a shootout between periods. At Sunday’s hockey games, Ann — Bamett won an autograt Buffalo Sabres hockey stick scoring on a shot from the line through an 18 inch openu the goal. Perhaps Oswego sh try and get her to play for tl Also, following all home ho games, there is recreati skating, free to all Bu students. You can’t beat a like that. At Saturday’s worn basketball game, the annou mistakenly announced st Clyde O’Malley as a freshman, announced the wrong class two of Buffalo’s other starte well as the entire Houghton t My advice to him is shape u ship out.

Swim teams split in two weekend meets The University of Buffalo men’s swimming team split two meets over the last weekend, swamping Rochester on Friday and losing to Cortland on Saturday. The women’s team had a rougher time,, losing to Rochester 73-24 on Thursday and drowning against Cornell on Saturday at Clark Hall. The Buffalo mermen took advantage of an undermanned Rochester squad to record their fourth win of the year. Rochester did not have a diver, and therefore forfeited sixteen points to Buffalo. Buffalo took first in nine of the other ten events. Freshman Jim Brenner picked up two wins, in the 1000 yard freestyle and in the 200 yard backstroke. Brenner’s time in the 1000 set a new school record, giving him the school record in the three longest freestyle events. Buffalo coach Bill Sanford was proud of Brenner, saying, “I don’t really know what he’s capable of doing.” Sanford experimented a lot during the meet, trying to find the right combinations for the upcoming SUNY Center and New York State tournaments. Chuck Niles swam a very good time in the 200 freestyle, and Sanford indicated that Niles could become the fourth member of the team’s 800 freestyle relay team. Diver Mike Doran turned in a personal high in the optional diving, with 232.05 points, and then surprisingly swam a leg on Buffalo’s 400 freestyle relay team. Sanford was pleased with the way the team has been swimming recently (their record is 4-4), and indicated that he would continue to experiment, noting, “I’m looking for little things in each meet. I m trying to see where things are going to fit best.” Buffalo’s undermanned women’s swimmers continued to struggle, and the two weekend losses dropped their record to 1-4.

Women who choose to work are placed in an untenable position since pregnancy means more than the loss of their wages while pregnant. After childbirth women must provide for childcare or abandon the workforce altogether.” “The gains of the last decade in the employment of Blacks and other minorities, as well as women could be wiped out with the Supreme Court’s approach,” Augustus Hawkins (D., Calif.), said.

In his dissent to the court’s opinion, Justice Brennan called the opinion “fanciful,” “simplistic*” and “misleading.” Joined by Justice Marshall, Brennan wrote “the soundness of the Court’s underlying assumption that the plan is an untainted product of a gender-neutral risk assignment can be examined against a historical backdrop of GE —continued from page 7— ... employment practices,” and can be found to be “purely fanciful.” . Capacity for pregnancy Brennan also maintains that the majority “unjustifiably rejected” the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s (EEOC) claim that the exclusion of pregnancy from an insurance plan is not compatible with, and may even violate, the overall objectives of Title VII. (Title VII stipulates that caused or contributed to by pregnancy . . . should be treated as such under any temporary disability insurance or sick leave plan.) In the second dissent, Justice Stevens wrote that ‘by definition such a rule discriminates on the basis of sex for it is the capacity to become pregnant which differentiates the female from the male.” The analysis remains the same he says “whether the rule relates to hiring, promotion, the acceptability of an excuse for absence, or the exclusion from a health insurance plan. Women s capacity for pregnancy has served as an historical basis for job discrimination since employers have long used potential pregnancy as an excuse to refuse to hire, train, and promote women.

In the case of suspension or expulsion the Court makes a recommendation to the University President who delivers the final decision. Many of the cases heard by the Court could be heard in civil or criminal courts.

Rubin Special Features Editor An audit of the Black Student Union (BSU) released by the University administration shows that at least $631 from a travel advance of $2,142 remains unjustified. The audit, which was performed by the internal audit staff of the University, confirms a previous report authorized by the Student Association (SA) last month. The audit was requested by members of the BSU who claimed the SA report was inaccurate. However, this new report, submitted by the Director of the Office of the internal Audit, R. D. McLeron, claims that an even greater amount of money is unsubstantiated than what was reported in the SA examination. The report notes that only $1,654.69 of receipts were handled in to cover the $2,142 travel advance November. Of that amount, issued last approximately $ 150 of receipts were disallowed by the audit committee, and another $150 of receipts could not be evaluated because the auditors were not sure whether these receipts were proper under the guidelines established by SA. Possible lawsuit At a meeting between Assistant Vice President Bubble is for Student Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti, assistant administrators of Student Affairs Richard Lidge and Howard Deuell, and executive members of SA and BSU, it was decided that BSU would be given until February 21 to turn in the remaining receipts. If proper justification to the funds is not made by that time, BSU members may be open to criminal and civil action. reinflated after storm damage Intramural programs and regularly scheduled gym classes which were cancelled last week will resume today at the Amherst Bubble. During high winds and chill factors of below 40 degrees, the generators which blow warm air up between the $250,000 two-skinned structure froze causing the Bubble to drop. The Bubble decended on the basketball hoops and lights, ripping the canvas walls. Maintenance’s quick reaction to the situation kept the damage to a minimum. Funds to repair the structure are guaranteed by the company and State aid. “The Bubble is serving its purpose, basically, but we do need a new facility,” said William Monkarsh, Coordinator of Recreation at this University. “It was a great thing by the Administration to put up the Bubble,” he added, but said that it cannot withstand theheavy amount of usage. Monkarsh added that the Bubble is just a “stop gap,” until a permanent athletic facility is completed. The audit report lists the $143.96 disallowed receipts and explains why they were excluded. In most cases, the reason for the disallowment stemmed from missing or inconsistent dates on receipts. Bills from Tops and Shop Rite supermarkets were undated. Bills for gasoline were dated more than one day before or after trips. There was one instance of a $7 gasoline bill dated one year before the date of the trip, and there was another bill which had no date and no indentification at all. The auditors were also unable to determine whether another $151.05 of receipts were proper under SA guidelines. This group included receipts for BSU basketball team expenses, food purchased in Buffalo while the travel status indicated that the purchaser was outside Buffalo, and receipts dated one day after the travel period. The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. 53 State University of New York at Buffalo Monday, 14 February 1977 Possible cutbacks Students administrators meet on operation of tie lines , it they will be severely affected. by Janis Kern Staff Writer within these Many students groups feel that they have been Spectrum unjustly accused of abusing their tie-line privileges. They gave a and Student leaders administrators will meet Thursday to discuss the administration’s plan deny to student organizations access to tie-lines as part of an effort to conserve funds. Student leaders are nearly their in saying unanimous severely be will operations handicapped as a result. The changes were authorized by Dr. W.H. Baumer, Assistant Vice President and Comptroller, as one of several changes in for telephone services the number of reasons. Vital University community. Presently there are about nine tie-lines on Main Street campus shared by student organizations and department administrators. The cost of telephone service including the use of tie-lines is currently $26 a month. Tie-lines cost the University approximately $480 per month. Baumer plans to introduce a separate tie-line service to student organizations. ‘Suspected abuse’ Baumer and Vice President for Finance and Management Edward Doty feel the student organizations have been getting much more use of the tie-lines than they have been paying for. They also feel that these groups tie-lines, are the jamming interferring with administrators’ access to open lines needed for long distance calls. Asked why the students are being held responsible for the misuse of tie-lines, Doty admitted William Baumer that there is only “suspected” abuse, such as using tie-lines for personal business. Baumer sugjgested that all of the 100 student groups that wish to use tie-lines share one or two at $480 per month. But student leaders feel this will make it nearly impossible to get an open line when long distance calls must be made. Therefore most long distance calls will have to be dialed direct, and undoubtedly lead to will phenomenal phone bills. Most of these organizations feel that their need for tie-lines service is mandatory and without the First, use of data transmission by computers on the tie-lines ties them up for long periods of time. Second, putting the tie-lines on hold for long periods of time keep the lines occupied. And Paul Maggiotto, director of New York Public Interest Research Group(NYPlRG), said, “During the winter break when few people were on campus and tie-lines were not being used by student organizations, it was still next to impossible to get an open line.” Drew Mendoza, Director of Community Action Corps (CAC), said CAC needs the tie-lines for state wide projects and that there will be a “loss of educational CAC benefits for members without the utilization of the lines.” Another student reason organizations are taking the blame may be that the confusion with the tie-lines is only occurring on the Main Street and Ridge Lea campuses and not at Amherst. The student organizations do not use tie-lines from the Amherst campus, which may lead some to believe that since the trouble is the taking place where organizations’ offices are located, they are the responsible parties. ‘Foolish’ What will the reprecussions be? —Vazquez organization leaders feel they will be severely hurt if tie lines are lost. Most claim to make many long distance calls strictly Most for business use and that without tie-lines, they will not be able to function properly. Ellen Folley from the Birth Control Clinic said she sees clinic will be unable to afford to contact with other clinics within clinic will be unable to affort contact with other clinics will n New York State, which she cut. tends is vital to their organization. Bob Olds, Director of Sub Board I’s Health Care Division, feels it is foolish to change the phone numbers of important groups and clinics, since it will take too long for people to learn a new number. He also feels it will be an unnecessary expense to change the telephone numbers on posters, cards, handbills, etc. each stationary, for organization which is included in Baumer’s plan. �Low pressure, pollution, sunspots taking the blame by Keith Friedlander Spectrum Staff Writer Though almost anyone will tell you that this has been one of the worst winters in the history of the Western New York area, you would have a hard time finding out why. In fact the meteorologist on duty at the National Weather Service (NWS) office at Greater Buffalo International airport was at first reluctant to concede this winter was nastier than most. “Terrible weather? This is Buffalo,” he chided. He then however, launched into a description of the unusual weather system which has set all kinds of new records in the Buffalo area, including the most snow in one season (ISO inches and still counting), most ’ consecutive days where the temperature has not broken 32 degrees and most consecutive snowy days (45 and 53, respectively). Monstrous low Apparently, a deep low pressure system set itself up over. Newfoundland very early this winter and began to pull down parcels of frigid aictic air that normally would have been destined for Canada and the Plains States west of Chicago. It is this monstrous low which has accounted for our miserable weather, according to the meteorologist. But when asked why it was sitting there he could only give a non-commital “I don’t WETATHETf TOMORROW'S know.” WGR TV’s weatherman Barry Lillis was unable to offer further enlightenment, giving almost the same explanation as to how it was so cold and snowy. When pressed for reasons why the weather has been so bad, he explained that “nobody knows why,” but went on to list some currently popular theories. Some scientists are blaming pollution from cars and factories for blocking some of the sun’s rays from reaching the earth’s surface. This they claim, has led to a general cooling trend in the earth’s climate as much as 2.5 degrees in the past thrity five years. However, the NWS meteorologist disagreed, claiming the earth has actually been in a warming trend for the past decade. — Sunspots Another theory points to sunspot activity as a determinant of our weather patterns. Sunspots are irregularities in the temperature of the surface of the sun. Low sunspot activity would mean cooler temperatures here in the Northern Hemisphere. Unfortunately, sufficient records do not, as yet, exist to disprove that theory. WER’s Lillis favors the theory of Don Gilman, chief forecaster for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in Washington, D.D. Gilman believes that the weather we are now having is just a temporary “fluke of nature.” So what does the future hold for us? “A good question,” answers Lillis. “I predict an early and mild spring.” The Weather Service meteorologist is more wary. While he too predicts milder weather for awhile, he cautions the weather could change at any time, adding, “We still have to worry about St. Patricks day!” But before you start packing away your winter things, consider this. Barry Lillis has been forecasting weather for a dozen years, the NWS meteorologist for fifteen, but when asked whether the forecasts for tomorrow would be any more accurate than their first ones made more than a decade ago, their answer was the same. No. Fridge Lea 9 ‘ Students complain of bitter cold buildings UNIVERSITY BOOKSTORE NORTON HALL Monday & 1 nesday Feb. 14 and 15th Indoors at the Ridge Lea Campus, it is not uncommon to see students, employees and faculty draped in winter attire, while vpicing their dismay about the reduction in temperature^ James McMillan, the maintenance supervisor at Ridge Lea, explained the reasoning behind the inadequate heating. The previous storm severely hampered the gas supply in Buffalo. “We are trying to conserve heat, because Ridge Lea is run by natural gas,” said McMillan. The temperature is being regulated at 65 degrees during daylight and 55 degrees in the evening, as mandated by the National Fuel Gas Company. McMillan stressed that “if we do not comply, they will shut us off completely.” University President Robert Ketter ordered all thermostats on campus be turned down to 65 degrees, regardless of the heating fuel. Ketter reported that many buildings exceeded the 65 degree temperature limit. Ketter warned that any further disobeyance of the ruling might result in a shutdown of the service. Maintenance has been overwhelmed with complaints meanwhile. Michael Benyo, a student who frequently attends Ridge Lea said, “The classrooms are colder than usual, and although T wear my coat, it’s difficult to concentrate, especially in the library.” Wind tunnels Employees of the library agreed. Clerk-typist Murial Utnehmer also complained of frigid temperatures, adding “I have a bad cold and it’s difficult to type when your fingers are frozen. ” The library therostat showed a reading of 60, as opposed to the v65 degree temperature. Although the cafetaria thermostat registered 65, employees shivered behind the counters. “It’s very cold in the cafeteria. Normally most of the employees wear uniforms, but now it’s slacks and sweaters,” said A.M. Beamer, a bus girl. The constant opening of doors brought in additional cold due to winds. Other annoyances, such as uprooted concrete and doors left ajar also contributed to freezing weather. McMillan explained that while the Main Street Campus is heated by coal, and the North Campus runs on electricity, he did not forsee a change in the way Ridge Lea is heated, since the property is rented by the University. Two weeks ago, Donald Rogers, professor of Speech Communications had actual air conditioning in his office. “I was told that the heater was in working order, but the pumps had failed,” he said. “Nevertheless, this semester is conducive to wearing a coat.” , Page two .

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

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

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

Essentially the only expense establishing a in involved solar-heated home or building is that incurred in the cost of the materials and installation of the heating units, which basically use mirror-type reflectors to make the sun’s rays heat water which then heats the air space of a building. The cost of these materials exceed the cost of heating a home with other conventional fuels, like oil and natural gas, the report showed.

Students will be trained in the Montessori philosophy and teaching method, child development and learning materials for pre-school programs. Now at two locations.

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

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

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

I know and am persuaded that there is nothing unclean in itself, but to him that esteemeth anything to be unclean, well it showeth him to be obsessed by his own lewd ness." —Theodore Schroeder to the Sex Censors Challenge A privately printed, 1938. The continuing debate over pornography has been refueled in past months with the arrests and prosecution of publishers of two nationally known sex magazines and 12 persons connected with the infamous Deep Throat. These latest arrests and trials were made possible by a 1973 To the Editor: Supreme Court ruling in the case of Miller vs. California, The recent snowstorms have produced fnany which effectively shifted the burden of defining obscenity hardships for all of Western New York. Due to the back to state and local authorities. The local authorities have hazardous weather and all of the problems it has caused, my respect for the people of Buffalo, which now taken the initiative in applying prevailing community I had before the storm, has further been fostered. standards to strike down the purveyors of obscenity. What we as Buffalonians have endured, I wish upon Sturdy people no one. Sixty-five mile-per-hour winds created weather with wind chill factors as low as seventy (-70) below zero. Forty-two consecutive days of The aborted showing of Deep Throat on this campus last month, for example, was inspired by a ruling in 1973 by State Supreme Court Justice Norman Stiller, who found the film obscene within the meaning of the law, and banned further showing after viewing the movie himself. It is necessary to come to the defense of Hustler's Larry Flint, Screw's Al Goldstein, and the Deep Throat gang, not because we recommend their publications and films, but because their prosecution is repugnant to free speech in a democracy. It is frightening that the concept of obscenity itself, or the existing community standard that defines it, may be used to supress constitutionally-protected speech or press. There is greater danger in censorship than in allowing publishers and filmmakers to sell whatever addlts will buy. There is no hard scientific data that pornographic books and films precipitate criminal or antisocial behavior. What is disturbing is the evangelical fervor of anti-obscenity crusaders like Judge Stiller, and the prosecutors in Cincinatti, who found a cause in Larry Flint. Hustler, without a doubt, is mainly trash. But it is also part of a magazine formula including Playboy, Oui, Penthouse, Club and Gallery that is in many cases the vehicle for serious, legitimate journalism. Freedom is lost in small steps: even Hustler has articles in it, however poor they are. How many of today's moralists would stifle off-beat social criticism such as was spoken by Lenny Bruce, or burn copies of an important novel like Henry Miller's Tropic of Cancer? Censorship and tyranny go hand in hand. Let's not forget — — that.

I’ve grown up Now, one year later, and no longer a resident of Clement Hall, but a cool and hip “off campus” dweller, my focus has varied and 1 find myself troubled by a new problem. I’m no longer in search of “deep raps,” ’’intimate encounters,” and “real meanings.” I simply want to attend a stimulating lecture where the professor doesn’t spend the majority of the time smoking, coming in late, drinking coffee, talking privately with special students, and holding the lecture for a quarter of the scheduled session. I’d like to relate some of my experiences this semester concerning this kind of lax behavior. At the second meeting of one of my classes, the professor entered and stated that she would be back in ten minutes. She had to do “something.” Why she had to do “anything” during my scheduled time period was beyond me, but I gave her the benefit of the doubt, and hoped she would return soon. She came back forty-five minutes later and taught her lecture, a somewhat condensed version, 1 assumed, to the three students who somehow felt obligated to stay. Another class I attend regularly necessitates my getting up by seven to-be at the Ridge Lee campus by nine. This course generally lasts fifteen to twenty minutes, instead of the scheduled two hour session, which forces me to sit in the cafeteria for four hours until my next class, also at Ridge Lea. My other professors generally tend to be unconcerned with maintaining student interest in the subject matter, creating an atmosphere not condusive to learning and personal involvement. Although the Ridge Lee cafeteria provides various educations of sorts, it should not be my steady hangout between mini-lectures. When one views this in a financial vein, it becomes obvious that students are being cheated. These professors are being amply paid, and if one were to compute their hourly fee, it would certainly not justify ending class early. My complaints are in direct reference to various Social Science fields, physics, engineering, and other such disciplines are characterized by professors with different attitudes. However, there are thousands of Social Science majors here and we too are entitled to the best education we can get. Part of the problem of teacher apathy arises out of disinterested students. Perhaps requirements for entry into many departments are too simple, resulting in large numbers of students who are disinterested, and distract from rather than contribute to the class. But, honestly, is it not the teachers’ responsibility to stimulate the class? This is particularly the case in classes where the subject matter is flexible and decided upon solely by the instructor 1 feel that part of the problem is due to the simple fact that they (the professors) can get away with it. Their superiors, namely those who can fire them, are not watching them closely, or not at all. Closer surveillance and routine check-ups would probably tighten things up a bit. This would prove who is and who isn’t taking his job seriously. Arthur J. Lalonde, Jr. The Editor’s bias To the Editor. Apparently, The Spectrum's editors were very much impressed by a caricature of the LA Times, which amalgamates France, Arab money and Nazism. They even found it proper to enlighten their readers by reproducing it in issue no. 46 of January 21. Being an Israeli, I feel that a few words of reaction are in place. The French court was indeed rather expeditious in ordering the deportation of Muhamad Audel, alias Abu Daud. However, one should remember that this order was formally legal, the Abu Daud is only a presumptive suspect for planning the events which led to Munich Olympic Games tragedy, that the killings there occured after the German police, incited by the Israeli government, started a massive shooting, and the German government itself has liberated the two terrorists who were caught there. Nevertheless, what worries me more than the fantastic disproportion involved in that caricature, is the apparent selectivity in the political interests of the editors. We have not found much in The Spectrum about genuinely fascist regimes, let alone caricatures identifying them with the Nazi salute and the swastika. Forgotten are Pinochet of Chile, the shah Pahlewi of Iran, Park of South Korea, Suharto of Indonesia, the murderous military juntas of Brasil, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, regimes which are all experts in tortures, and which have massacred literally millions of political opponents. And while the Middle East seems to attract the editor’s interest, they have not found much to say about my own Israeli government, which is maintaining a brutal occupation over one and a half million people, and which is acrobatically avoiding any peaceful settlement. Until the editors show some signs of concern for these tragic issues, the publication of a caricature accusing France of Nazism can only be considered as an insult to the readers’ common sense.

Guest Opinion I was most upset that the editor’s note above a letter addressed to me by one of your reporters in Wednesday’s letters to the Editor noted that it was sent to the Sub-Board Treasurer. 1 would be grateful if you would in the future realize that there are public and private sides to one’s life. 1 wrote my comments as a student, not some official. Although 1 have had the privilege of serving'students through my work with Sub-Board, this was not a statement of that organization. My signature, with no title, should have made this clear. This seemed to confuse the reporter and the editor. I would also like to protest the inclusion of a photograph of me alongside a story about the UUAB Film Committee. While the article was well-written and positive, for which 1 thank the reporter and The Spectrum, any and all praise should go to Film Committee Chairperson Robert Graham. The continuing excellence of the film program is directly attributable to the fine efforts of Mr. Graham and the members of the Film Committee. | Jr W T£ WR <P/47/ m3 jmx.iMU Monday, 14 February 1977 .

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

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

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

Like a lot of present filmmakers he's interested in making the audience deal with fundamental perceptual processes, but he's doing it with far greater precision and with less irrelevant detail than most. When he wants the audience to experience 'time,' he arranges carefully marked units of black and white leader organized to alternate, reduce or expand in their duration in a way that allows you to be fully conscious of the relations and developments within the piece. He uses marks, either lines or signs, to point up his segmentations of the film strip. In his expanded work, limura draws attention to the plastic potential of the total viewing equipment: the projector lens, the screen, etc., manipulated during the event, always keeping the elements simple to make sure of the viewer's undistracted attention ..." (London), February 1974 — John Du Cane, Time Out, ?l r Wolfgang Kahleke in Die Welt The Rhythms of Time Japan's Taka limura does not make the kind of film you think of as movies. One could tell that much already from his Video Room at the "Action of Avantgarde" recently staged by the New Berlin Art Clyb (Neue Berliner Kunstverein) at the Academy of Fine Arts presently on a (Akademie der Kunste). There limura (DAAD) Service Exchange German Academic scholarship constructed a video exhibit in which the observer could photograph himself and simultaneously observe himself on the screen, acting out, experiencing, controlling and enjoying himself. In addition, limura showed several films which have little in common with our customary concept of cinema but which say that much more about the medium itself, about the relationship between the realistic jmage and reality, and above all, about the experience of passing time, the basic, elementary material of cinematic — - — About Taka iimura In 1963 Taka Iimura was awarded "Special Prize" for one of his early film works, Onan, at the Brussels International Experimental Film Festival. In 1966 he was invited by Harvard University to attend its International Seminar. From then until 1969 he remained in New York City as a cultural exchange visitor sponsored by Japan Society, showing the films at pumerous places including the Museum of Modern Art, Filmmakers' Harvard and Yale Cinematheque, Universities. In 1969 he went to 12 European countries, showing his films in various museums, film archives, and universities. He has recently published a book of essays, scope, collected international on in contemporary art and film in Japan entitled Geijutsu To Higeijutsu No Aida (Between Arts and Non-Arts).

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

This indicates how the man who adapted the word into Japanese regarded movies originally. In English, we say "motion picture" which literally means picture with motion. I prefer the word "eiga; reflected picture" to "motion picture." It is because I am concerned in my films with "reflected picture" that I call them "reflected cinema" rather than "motion picture." "Reflected picture" emphasizes a state not a motion a state where a picture is reflected through not a picture which moves. In such a state, light motion could be involved since it covers all situations including motion and non-motion: still. Once when I talked on "reflected picture," a man in the audience asked me whether "reflected picture" meant a passive rather than an active one. I said that the term means neither passive nor active but a state where both are combined like a wave. You cannot separate a passive wave from an active wave. I recall a lantern which I saw at a village festival in Japan in my childhood. A lantern covered with screens on which shadows of paper fishes revolved. It was the first time ,1 saw a "movie." In fact, the word "reflected picture," I believe, is deeply rooted in the traditional shadow-picture which had (and has) existed in the East long before movies were invented. In Chinese, "movie" is literally called "electric shadow picture." That explains where movies came from for them. But in Japan, the term, "reflected picture" seems to put more emphasis on a state.

New Tales of the Taira Clan is about one of the great dynastic changes in Japanese the usurpation of the nobility's power by the history and it is also a warrior class in the 12th century in outline the story is the parable of all revolutions same as one Fidel Castro likes to tell about Simon Bolivar. - — — January 27 TOKYO STORY (Tokyo Monogatari), directed by Yasujiro Ozu, 1953. B&W, 134 min. "Tokyo Story is a calm-surfaced tale of an aging provincial couple visiting their mildly ingrate children in Tokyo. By. shunning plot, as usual, Ozu gives dense energy to story. The picture is Lear with the sting of rage drawn but without any feeling or extremity lost. The couple sense that the course of their past is being put to the test, and they find it wanting. Ozu always catches his characters at moments when they are driven to their limits. Life is difficult for most people, he says, and most people make a fair job of it." —Penelope Gilliatt, The New Yorker February 3 THE LOYAL 47 RONIN OF THE GENROKU ERA I (Genroku Chushingura I), directed by Kenji Mizoguchi, 1941. B&W, 116 min. Chushingura, literally "A Treasure of Loyal Hearts", the story of Lord Asano's 47 loyal samurai retainers who give up their lives to avenge him, is Japan's most popular samurai legend. According to Joseph Anderson and Donald Richie, it has been filmed once or twice a year consistently from 1913 through the 1950's. But of all these retellings, Kenji Mizoguchi's unconventional two-part version is certainly the most profound, if not the most spectacular or the definitive Chushingura. February 10 THE LOYAL 47 RONIN OF THE GENROKU ERA II (Genroki Chushingura II), directed by Kenji Mizoguchi, 1942. B&W, 125 min. (See above description). February 24 STORY OF LAST THE THE CHRYSANTHEMUMS (Zangiku Monogatari), directed by Kenji Mizoguchi, 1939. B&W, 148 min. Mizoguchi once said he made The 47 Ronin during the war "so J wouldn't have to make anything else." At about the same time (1939—1942), he also made a number of films about the lives of actors set during the Meiji Era (1868—1911), since such costume dramas would appear politically innocuous. Yet, for Joan Mellen, The Story of the Last Chrysanthemums is still "one of the most brilliant satires on the Japanese family system," which "can be seen as an outright defiance of the militarists' advocacy of the family as an institution." The film's protagonist is an oyama in the Kabuki Theater, a male actor specializing in female roles, who rejects a woman who has supported him for many years, both materially and spiritually, in order to please his insensitive, snobbish family. March 3 THE HARP OF BURMA (Biruma no Tategoto), directed by Kon Ichikawa, 1956. B&W, 116 min. 'I A fascinating requiem for World War II, The Harp of Burma is self-consciously pacifist and Buddhist, but very similar in feeling to many Japanese wartime movies celebrating the martial spirit. The hero is private Mizushima, who decides to stay on in Burma after the war in order to devote the rest of his life to burying the war dead as a personal expiation for all the sins of war. The Harp of Burma won the San Giorgio Prize at the 1956 Venice Film Festival as the film which best shows "man's capacity to live one with another." Profound or bathetic, it is a real triumph of style; the black and white cinematography is perfectly modulated, and the consistently striking. are compositions March 10 RED-LIGHT DISTRICT (Or: Street of Shame, Akasen Chitai), directed by Kenji Mizoguchi, 1956. B&W, 85 min. Kenji Mizoguchi's last film, Red-Light District, is also his political testament. It has not been as highly regarded as his period dramas, which suggests only /that Mizoguchi's vision is more acceptable when it is enshrouded in mists and painterly atmospheric effects, when its relevance to present realities is open to interpretation and misinterpretation. It is about five women who are prostitutes* and its position on their work is unequivocal and pessimistic: that the prostitution of women is not a "problem" that can be "solved" within the framework of a social system that is based on exploitation. March 17 EQUINOX FLOWER (Higanbana), directed by Yasujiro Ozu, 1958. Color, 118 min. In his first color film, Ozu shows a particular sympathy for the younger generation; the daughter Setsuko who rejects an arranged match to marry for love is vindicated, finally winning even her father's approval. Equinox Flower is the subject of a long and fascinating analysis by Edward Branigan of the articulations of space in Ozu's mise-en-scene, published in Screen, summer 1976. March 24 THE AUTUMN OF THE KOHAYAQAWA FAMILY (Or: End of Summer, Kohayagawake no Aki), directed by Yasujiro Ozu, 1961. Color, 103 min. "Of the films by Yasujiro Ozu that I have seen, (it) is the best, the most subtle, the most ambitious and the most successful in achieving the blend of comic insight and tragic vision that informs this director's cinema. It is a late work (Ozu died in 1963, at the age of 60) and it tells several stories at once, touching upon a broad range of experience. It has a quality of luminous intelligence exceptional even in a career for which such intelligence was generally the controlling point of view." —Roger Greenspun, The New York Times March 31 OF SHINJUKU DIARY BURGLAR A (Shinjuku Dorobo Nikki), directed by Nagisa Oshima, 1968. B&W, 94 min. Perhaps it is best to let the distributor speak for this film: "Using a free, modern cinematic style, Oshima focuses on the seething labyrinth of Shinjuku, the Greenwich Village of Tokyo, with its social unrest and upheavals. A young couple, in a bizarre search for sexual explores psychoanalysis, voyeurism, ecstacy, sex manuals, shoplifting and rape to find it, while Shinjuku in violent student riots amid the tensions between old rituals and new ideas." explodes �Ten Japanese Features in 16 MM Buffalo and Erie County Public Library 8:00 PM February 1 THE LOWER DEPTHS (Donzoko), directed by Akira Kurosawa, 1957.

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

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

B&W, Cinemascope, 143 min. Another Kuros.awa adaptation of a Western literary source but in this instance not a classic: the mystery thriller King's Ransom by Ed McBain (a pseudonym for Evan Hunter). Kurosawa tells the story of a kidnapping from a number of consecutive viewpoints, shifting from that of a victim's (or rather: the intended victim's) father who must pay the ransom the delivery of the ransom is a stunning action sequence filmed on an to that of express train in real time with nine cameras the police detectives to that of the kidnapper, who is himself also a victim.

March 8 RECORD OF A LIVING BEING (Or; I Live in Fear, Ikimono no Kirouki), directed by Akiro Kurosawa, 1955. B&W, 104 min. Kurosawa's Record of a Living Being was made during the period of U.S. hydrogen bomb tests at Bikini when fears of radioactive fallout and of the devastating consequences of a nuclear war were especially acute in Japan. A conversation with a friend, the film's composer Fumi Hayasaka, then fatally ill, about the Bikini tests inspired Kurosawa's decision "to make a satire on the H-bomb." But Kurosawa and his collaborators eventually turned their satire into a tragedy: the story of a man whose attempt to make a new life is thwarted by his complacent family. Toshiro. Mifune plays a factory owner who becomes obsessed with the fear of another nuclear attack on Japan. He decides to sell all his possessions, including the factory, and move his family to a farm, in the wilds of Brazil. But his children are outraged by the plan and conspire to have him judged mentally incompetent.

"The first of Kenji chronicling the Mizoguchi's late masterpieces, persecutions of a woman in 17th and 18th century Japan. Probably the most powerful of all the director’s feminist protests, combining picaresque plot with magisterial mise-en-scene." It was also Mizoguchi's own favorite among his films, and in this instance a director's opinion is far from idiosyncratic. February 15 SAMUARI SPY (Or: Sarutobi, Iban Sarutobi Sasuke), directed by Masahiro Shinoda, 1965. B&W, Cinemascope, flOmin. March 22 A FULL LIFE (Mitasareta Seikatsu), directed Susumu Hani, 1962. B&W, Cinemascope, 108 min. One of the best of the many Japanese films based on the legends about the ninjutsuzukai, the black-cfad "magician spies" who appeared in the wake of the battles that led to the establishment of the Tokugawa Shogunate in 1600. Samurai Spy is set in 1614, and the spy for a minor clan caught in the hero Sarutobi rivalries between the Tokugawas and the Toyotomis. Beyond that the development of the play fnay not be clear, but the images always are. Shinoda is a brilliant visual stylist; his critics call it "visual excess," his partisans "visual flair." Like Shinoda and Oshima, Susumu Hani belongs to the "new wave" generation of Japanese film-makers who emerged in the late fifties and early sixties. Hani distinguished himself with his semi-documentary approach, using non-professional actors and a hand-held camera, and his feminist themes. A Full Life "is perhaps the most revolutionary film made up to that time in Japan about a contemporary women's quest for idependence." —Joan Mellen February 22 March 29 ODD OBSESSION (Or: The Key, Kagi), directed by Kon Ichikawa, 1959. Color, 107 min. PAGES FROM A DIARY OF MADNESS (Or: A Page of Madness, Kurutta Ippeiji), directed by Teinosuke Kinugasa, 1926. B&W, Silent, 60 min.

Although Kinugasa might . . . have seen Caligari, The Last Laugh . . . and the Gance of La Roue, his use of abstract imagery is more radical and innovatory.

Pages from a Diary of Madness was understandably a commercial failure on its original release. Apparently, it lay unnoticed for over forty years until Kinugasa discovered a copy in his garden storeroom. Certainly, this discovery is a major event, confirming that the Japanese 1920's is yet another goldmine waiting to be opened up." —John Gillett, Sight and Sound, 1973. PEASANTS OF THE SECOND FORTRESS (Sanrizuka: Daini Toride no Hitobito), directed by Shinsuke Ogawa, 1971. B&W, 143 min. Peasants of the Second Fortress is the fourth in a series of six films Shinsuke Ogawa made over a five-year period from 1968 to 1973 documenting the struggle of the against tenant farmers around Sanrizuka construction of a new international airport on the land where they had lived and farmed for generations. "Ogawa completely identified himself with this struggle His crew stayed at Sanrizuka, living exactly as did the peasants, completely trusted by the participants , . . Thus the Sanrizuka films differ from most traditional documentaries. They were made with the collaboration of farmers who were shown rushes and castigated Ogawa when they felt he had directed a scene without feeling." —Joan Mellen Free March 1 THERE WAS A FATHER (Chichi Ariki), directed by Yasujiro Ozu, 1942. B&W, 94 min. Yasujiro Ozu might be regarded as the Ozzie Nelson of Japan; in a career spanning over 30 years and 53 films, his single concern has been the fortunes of the Japanese family. However, the emotional range of the Japanese domestic drama, the shomin-gekJ, is much greater than that of the American situation comedy, and Ozu has raised the shomin-geki to the level of the highest art. Made during the Second World War, There Was a Father concerns the struggles of a widower to raise his son after being forced to abandon his teaching profession. A black comedy about an aging husband's attempts restore his sexual potency, based on Junichiro Tanizaki's novel The Key. When the film first appeared in the West in the early sixties, most reviewers failed to get the joke and produced phrases such as "a cold, dispassionate study of the sexual perversions of an aging man" or "if (Ichikawa's) style has an almost clinical detachment, it is subtly fervent, each shot handled naturalistically and yet witft the stylized balance of Japanese prints." to April 12 THE CEREMONY (Gishiki), directed by Nagisa Oshima, 1971. Color, Cinemascope, 122 min. "The fluctuating fortunes of a once powerful dynasty and the economic 'miracle' of Japan's post-war expansion charted through a succession of hieratic rituals. Blackly humorous, and grotesquely tragic, Oshima's static-masterpiece dynamically expresses the conflict between traditional forms and actual feelings." —Sight and Sound The Ceremony made an unscheduled appearance at this year's New York Film Festival when Oshima's latest film The Realm of the Senses was confiscated by U.S. Customs after a press screening. , �Four Japanese Films in 35 MM 4JUAB Filin Committee, Feb. 17—20 Norton Conference Theater Continuous Admission charge. screenings Call 831*3541 for times.

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

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

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

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

It is usually harmless to those who contract it, but it poses danger for a pregnant woman's child. The disease is transmitted by the mother tb the fetus, which may subsequently suffer congenital deformities. Rubella is most dangerous when the expecting mother contracts it within the first four months of pregnancy, cost Not during pregnancy The test is given by Medical Technology Department students under supervision of a commitment to education in New York State. This year’s budget message concedes that the gap between the state support and the national average has narrowed, indicating that the heavy commitment may be lessening. Net impact The net impact of the reduction in staff funding witl be the elimination of about 678 positions throughout SUNY. The total (or gross) reduction in staffing amounts to 873 positions, of which over two-thirds are already vacant as a result of a hiring freeze over the past twenty months. These proposed staff reductions added to reductions in the work year of many employees from 12 to 10 months will yield estimated savings of $7 million. The budget also calls for an addition of 195 positions on the SUNY campuses to help handle “specific enrollment increases (in the few programs scheduled for increases), and program development needs to meet minimum work )oad conditions.” Most of the new positions are for the Stony Brook Hospital staff buildup and the opening of new buildings at SUC Purchase. The estimated cost of the new positions is $1.8 million, making the overall savings in staff reductions $5.2 million next year. While this University is in line for a SI.45 million increase, the bulk of the increase will come in the area of unavoidable costs, such as fuel allocations and not-to-be-repeated moving expenses.

In early January, the State Dept, released detailed reports on human rights conditions abroad at the request of the House International Relations Committee, and found that Argentina, Haiti.

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

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

That can get expensive, especially when most professors over and underestimate the numbers of books they’ll need for their classes.” Non-textbook retail mark-ups typically average between 50 and 100 percent; higher takes are common. Not surprisingly, then, the bookstores are reaping their greatest share of profits from items other than textbooks. The diversification in products, besides garnering more loot, also helps “service the students” and pulls the store through lean summer months, according to a Brown University bookstore manager in Providence, R.I.

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

As might be expected, his career has been varied and colorful, and he has many interesting opinions on his work, organized crime, and journalism as a profession.

Explaining why he takes this compassionate view, he said, “I grew up with these people. When I was a kid, I respected and was in awe of Stefano Magaddino (the late boss of the Buffalo family). I knew, him to be a great man. It was only when I started writing that I became exposed to the other side.” Coppola conceded that his background has helped him. “I can relate to these people. I know many of them. We are friendly enough that I know them and they know me, but we’re not drinking friends. After all, it wouldn’t benefit me to be seen with these people, and they sure as hell wouldn’t benefit from seen with me.” He being must you continued, “but remember, they are human beings too. They have problems. They worry about their kids being busted for marijuana.” Because of the nature of his articles, has Coppola ever been scared? “Because I write the honest truth, they (the Mafia) respect me. I have no fear of them, but I do remember two instances when 1 was scared. The first was when I did a story on a Lackawanna detective. After I wrote the story.

As a child growing up in Buffalo, he was influenced a great deal by his father. “My_ father knew many of the men (in the Mafia], and he didn’t want me to get involved. For as long as I could remember, the notion of going to college was inbred in me.” Coppola went to college with the intention of becoming a journalist. “When I was in high school, I joined the newspaper staff. The first time 1 saw my name in print, I loved it.

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

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

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

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief Page eight The Spectrum . Friday, 11 February 1977 A previous letter in this space has brought to my attention a- regretable situation. |t seems that Dr. Ganz of the Department of Speech Communication may lose his appointment because he is on the wrong side of a political fence that has developed in that department. It is regretable for any person to lose a position because of politics. It is far more frustrating when someone who has served the University as well as Dr. Ganz has. may be lost. I am in no position to comment on Dr. Ganz’ teaching ability because I have never had occasion to study in his department. However, 1 have seen Dr. Ganz on local television programs discussing his research. On these programs . he was both knowledgeable and informative. The school would do well to have many more staff members representing it in such a way. I know anothbr facet of Dr.'Ganz’ work around this campus. Last year, budget cuts hit almost every department in the school. In the Athletic Department the cross country budget was cut to nearly nothing and track was eliminated completely. At the beginning of the ’76—’77 school year, there was no cross country coach and too little money to hire one. Dr. Ganz volunteered to be coach. He spent his free time last semester running practices on weekdays and travelling with the team to meets on weekends. This involves a lot of time he might have spent with his wife a'nd child. As the cross country season ended Dr. Ganz volunteered to coach indoor track which is currently going on. He has also volunteered to coach spring track when the time comes. There are fifteen men who would have missed Dr. Ganz last season and many more this indoor track season. It would be bad if the University repaid Dr. Ganz ' by terminating him. How can this institution afford to lose this man? Koh Schaefer �Underground scene Punk rock flourishes with new album releases by Dimitri Popadopoulos Flash Bulletin Our beloved Patti Smith has fallen victim to her own wild acrobatics. In a recent Tampa gig, Patti attempted an aerial summersault, and as she plummitted back to Earth, our heroine missed the stage and fell 10 feet into the orchestra section of the hall. Patti will be laid up for the next 6 to 8 weeks, as she needs time to recover from the 22 stitches she received in the head, a hairline vertebrae fracture, and a number of other unsightly bodily injuries. Hope ya get well soon, Patti. — Contributing Editor Some history Several years ago, this guy named Tom Verlaine walked down the Bowerey, with a guitarist friend named Richard Lloyd. Guided by hope and intuition, the two stopped into a bar (I bet you can't guess which one) and convinced the owner that it would be wise to present their new band at this cramped bar. So a stage was built, and for the following eight Sundays a band called Television played mostly to drunks that walked in off the streets. The bar was eventually to be called C.B.G.B.’s and it was to be the beginning of a new rock and roll revolution. The above description beset the origin of the underground scene in New York; a mise en scene that was given the apt title "punk rock." Already the major groups in the city have been in the studio, recording a wave of excellent and enjoyable elpees, and other bands are also swarming the studios or are on the verge of signing recording contracts. So with this in mind, the once unpublicized underground scene is definitely over and the big question is what will come next. Alan Betrock, editior of the New York Rocker, one of the most lively and relevant magazines devoted to any local music scene, sez that "with industry awareness and media heavily focused on New York, scene spotters are now looking to Boston or London or Los Angeles or California for the new underground bands." Still, I believe that the New York bands will have to carry the weight of breaking the charts. For those of you that do not read fanzines, or have not followed the puck scene since its inception and wish to know more, I have-compiled this summary of what has already gone down/will go down in the Big Apple. Read carefully, for these groups will carry a major weight in the music scene in the next few months/years. - A decedent's discography The Patti Smith Group has received the most acknowledgement of the bands in question, and for a very good reason. Smith has been the greatest present to rock and roll in a long while. Her Rimbaud-influenced poetry-set-to-music is refreshing, and her stage act is one of the best since the demise of the first great wave of heavy rockers, the wave which included such illumunious figures as Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, and the Velvet Underground. Her fir.st album. Horses, is a classic in every sense of the word, and contains a special version of that sixties hit "Gloria," with its "leaning on the parking meter, humping on the parking meter" lyrics. Recently Patti Smith and her Lenny Kaye, Ivan Krai, Jay Dee Daugherty and band Richard Sohl have completed their second LP, under the aegis of Aerosmith producer Jack Douglas. This time around the eight song LP, entitled Radio Etheopia, has a t more rock-and-roll edge to it. Some of the songs are Ain "Poppies," River," the narcotic it Strange," "Pissin' in the Abyssinia," and the title cut, which of late has become the important live improvisational piece. The fanatics among you might try to locate either of her two singles: her definitive poetical statement "Piss Factory" and her enough, defiant version of "My Generation." If that's not credit, the infectious Patti also has two bootlegs to her inflamed Teenage Perversity and Ships in the Night and the Hard Nipples. Mrs. Bumstead Comes Alive With a name borrowed from that famous comic strip, another female based group to be on the lookout for is Blondie. After toiling in the studio with producer Richard Gptthehrer, this convocation, fronted by blonde sweetheart Deborah Harry, has finished a very professional album for the Private Stock Label. This disc will capture your cerebrum and never let go. Listen as Blondie sneers "Rip Her to Shreds," double-take as she reworks West Side Story in "A Shark in Jet's Clothing," then boil over in laughter to’ the marimba-infested "The Attack of the Giant Ants." Giant Ants from space, snuff the human race First they eat your face, never leave a trace La, la la, la la, la, la fa, la la. most definite. TV is definitely the band to demonstrate to the rest of the country that New York rock is fresh, original, exciting, and even great. If all goes well, this album should be a classic although unlike the Ramones it will not be intended for the very young. As Tom Verlaine has admitted, "I think we look too young for 13 year old girls." Master Race Rock The Dictators are the heaviest of all the N.Y.C. bands, as their sonorousness emulates a combination of Kiss and Aerosmith, without forgetting their intimate ties to Blue Oyster Cult, with whom they share both management and producers. They are also heavy in another sense —' they enigm. that alvyays-more-than-welter-weight spawn Handsome Dick Manitoba, whose visual and lead vocal talents helped to make their first album a satirical and critically-acclaimed success. The Dictators have been steadily improving since Dictators Go Girl Crazy and though recently dropped by Columbia, they have just signed a new deal with Elektra. Their new album will exhibit a lineup of great social import: some "titles that seem likely for inclusion are "Steppin' Out," "How Does a Brain So Small Move Fingers So Fast," "Dogs," and "Science Gone Too Far," the probable title cut. More Soho news owner of that fabled bar C.B.G.B.'s Hilly Kristal began to privately press an album of unsigned local favorites last summer. As of late, Atlantic Records has picked up the distribution of this anthology. While the record tends to be spotty at times, as it display? a crude mix, several acts are worth checking out. Most noted are — As the liner notes declare, "rock and roll is the name of their game, but to-give to you, the listeners, more fun the object of their fame. This may be just the thing all you non-blondes have been waiting for." Of all the New York punk rockers; the Ramones are perhaps my favorite band, with their sometimes serious, sometimes hysterical verse. The Rambnes are a throwback to earlier times, happier times: Happy Days. Imagine four prototypes of the Fonz playing a series of variations on the theme of super fast speed pop. WOOOOEEE and HEEEYVV, watch out faw dez guys, day could be bigger dan der idols, Herman's Hermits. The Ramones have two albums, both on Sire Records. The first one contains the facist rush, "The Blitzkrieg Bop," a song that will command you to listen, demand that you react. Their second LP, The Ramones Leave Home, does everything that the first Runaways' album promised,.without having them spell it out for you You WILL follow them with sensual abandon. Also, the Ramones have a new single, "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend," backed by a medley of "California Sun" and "I Wanna Sniff Some Glue," a live recording from the Roxy. Next week : an interview with the Ramones. — - Television: bigger than cable Television are: Tom Verlaine, lead guitar, vocals, sometimes rhythm guitar; Richard Lloyd, rhythm guitar, occasional lead guitar, backing vocals; Fred Smith, bass, backing vocals; Billy Ficca, drums. As you read this, their first album (probably called Television) and another single, "See No Evil/Little Johnny Jewel, Pt. 3," will have hit the racks of your favorite record nook. At present, the deal seems to be a one-shot affair with Tom Verlaine bestowed producing reins, as long as an experienced engineer handles the technical end of things. As of now, nine cuts are planned, with "See No Evil" and "Venus De Milo" the Mind De Ville and Tuff Darts, who contribute five outstanding cuts. Mink's "Change it Comes" reggaes along with the best of them, and "Cadillac Moon" could have been included on the Stone's Sticky Fingers without a question as to who was performing. Tuff Darts will inevitably be the first of this crop to score a contract. The band's tie-and-jacket image augments their raucous brand of rock and roll. As for their three cuts, "Slash," "All For the Love of Rock and Roll," (a great anthem if I ever heard one) and "Head Over Heels," they are simply better than anything Lou Reed has created in his last few turns at bat. Other punk donors are Manster, the power trio Sun, Stuart's Hammer, The Laughing Dogs, The Shirt and the Miamis. Not to feel left out, the management at Max's Kansas City has just jumped into the vinyl jungle. Similar in format to the Live at C.B.G.B.'s album, this one is called Max's Kansas City 1976. Performing here are the somewhat notorious Wayne County and the Back Street Boys (whose first album on the Bomp Label should be out soon), ex-groupie-turned-lead-singer Cherry Vanilla and her Staten Island Band, The Fast, The John Colins Band, Harry Toledo, and Pere Ube. Terry Ork, guiding light of Ork Records and the man responsible for Television's first single ("Little Johnny Jewel Pts. 1 & 2") has been to work with other such bands as Richard Hell and The Voic Gilds; The Heartbreakers, with ex-Doll Johnny Thunders; Milk and Cookies and The Marbles. If you are interested in more information, you can write to Terry at Ork, Post Office Box 150, Cooper Station, New York, NY 10003. �Mild-mannered newspaper reporter leads a dual life Weekend films Buffalo Bill and John Wayne are both legitimate legends of the Old West, and they're the subjects of this weekend's UUAB Film Committee offerings in the Norton Conference Theatre.

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

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

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

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

Robin Hershberger As a' freshman living in Red Jacket. Robin’s major concern during the storm was.that the cleaning woman wouldn’t make it to Ellicott for a few days. She passed the time by making a few extra long distance phone calls, and by necking with and nagging at Steve Midler, her bed partner for Ihe week. In fact, Robin Hershberger was one of 28 persons in Erie County who were not at all unhappy to see the snow fall and the gas run out. On the other hand, Steve Midler was one of 632,178 persons in Erie County who were in favor of having County Executive Ned Regan ask Mother Nature for an injunction against further snowfall. After about a day or so, Steve decided that the necking just wasn’t worth the nagging. Gesting back to the big 28, though, since that number is easier to handle than 632,178, George Makowski was sorry to see the emergency lifted. He still had plenty of food left in his Ma and Pa Grocery Store, and he loved selling quarts of milk for $2.50. Others ot Makowski s favorite pastimes include parking across two spaces wherever possible, scalping Sabres tickets tor $25 a seat, and. just for kicks, calling the police every now and then to investigate “strange goings on" in the student-rented houses on his block.. Graduate assistant in environmental design Ivan Mokolu had been very depressed before the storm, but was soon in great spirits after spotting some of those 25 foot drifts. The reason? Ivan was homesick, and being half Russian and half Eskimo, the snow made him feel like he was back home in Nome. Of course, it was acting University President Albert Somit who arranged the storm, and he naturally was one of the big 28. University President Robert Ketter returned to the active list on February I. and Somit reportedly requested the storm from Zeus. Odin, and Commander Tom to allow for a smooth transition of power. However, sources close to Somit say he was afraid that students might lay waste to the school or to each other following the January 26 Student Association Senate meeting, and he used the storm as a means of keeping his own name out of the headlines. . For Michael Kalterewski, the storm couldn't have hit at a better time. As vice president of the Elmo Textile Corp.. he had been lighting a one man battle against the eight other officers of the corporation to leave Buffalo. Kalterweski's analysis showed that bliho Textile could save thousands by relocating in any of IS southern cities, and that two years worth of the state tax savings alone wo.uld cover the moving expenses. But his plan had come under such severe criticism by ElmoVpresident Sayknox Moore, whose family had been in Buffalo for IfaO years, that, Kalterewski was fearing for his job. Needless to say. when the snow hit and Elmo Textile closed down for a week, vice president Kalterewski was at twice suddenly executive vice president Kalterewski and one more large Buffalo his former salary corporation made plans to head for the warmer, more profitable south. Inter-Residence Council (IRC) Director ot Operations Brad Koshar thoroughly enjoyed the storm. As the manager of IRC's three residence hall food stores, there was nothing he couldn't sell. In fact, Koshar made so much money during the week, that when tie lines start costing $480 a month, IRC alone will have the money for private tie lines for each of its executive members. It was a banner weelT for 63 year old Marcus Regalado. Unable to go to work, Regalado pursued his favorite hobby and at the same time carved out his own niche in the Guiness Book of World Records. He slept for 1 27 consecutive hours. And finally, obstetrician Larry Gerber spent the week drawing up plans for his new office wing the one he'll be able to afford after the big rush in late September and early October. and that their profession involves dealing with these types of financial matters on a daily basis. Further, the. audit done here was not the type which would necessitate the use of professionals. At this point I would like to start answering sonic ot the charges leveled at Student Association by the leadership of BSU in the January 24th' issue of The Spectrum. BSU claims my injuries were exaggerated. This claim has no foundation sincc'those who make the claim never saw me after the beating, and my injuries were substantiated. As was reported, yes I did receive stitches above my eye. yes my cornea was scratched, yes I received several cuts, bruises and contusions to my lace. arms, legs' and body, and yes. my back was injured and has not yet healed. All of this was substantiated at ihe Hearing by medical records, photographs and the testimony of the examining physician from the emergency ward. The next charge was that SA put off meeting with BSU for two months. Now here is an exaggeration. In late November BSU had arranged a meeting with Student Affairs but never asked Student Association to come until the day of the meeting. Since we already had other meetings scheduled, we were unable to attend. On November 30th there had been another meeting set up by George Thomas of Third World Vets..but when I spoke to John Lott of BSU earlier (hat day he said he knew nothing about it and that all parties would be unable to attend. A meeting did take place on December 9th. This time period was not two months, but less than one month and it included Thanksgiving vacation. It would seem impossible for SA to be guilty of precipitating the assault by calling in University Police since they did not arrive until after the incident was over. have had If the response to this is the few University Police present precipitated the incident, well, we have not had them present since the Financial Assembly meetings in Haas Lounge last Spring. These meetings were disrupted when Robert Tribble and John Lott flipped over the tables I was seated at, so as to prevent the Financial Assembly from passing the Student Association budget. Since it was known University Police were present, 1 won’t speculate on what might have happened if they had not been present. I checked with the Office of the President and it is not at all unusual to expell students even if an incident doesn’t involve weapons. In this case, it would be all the less unusual because of the degree of force used and that this had been an attack and not a light as claimed by BSU. For BSU President Walter Haddock to complain of our authorizing a S400 purchase order to Food Service tor the BSU Christmas party, but denying a S30 cash advance for decorations as being non-cooperative is absurd. In auditing the previous cash advances for. the basketball trips to play prison teams for BSU and Minority Altairs. it was found there were large discrepancies between the cash advanced and the receipts returned. For this reason Student Association decided not to give any further cash advances to BSU. At the same time we didn’t want to cancel an event affecting a large number of Minority students since the investigation wasn’t finished and Hie party didn't require cash. 1 thought we were being lenient in a situation that could have easily justified stricter measures. 1 won't apologize if that is being uncooperative. Whether Black or Hispanic students don't get as much service and activities from their fee money as other students remains to be seen. At any rate, direct return of money to students would destroy the offering of the many collective services which would not be otherwise possible. Direct control by Minority students over money as requested in Sub-Board would also be wrong. At present no single interest group is in control, the whole idea is tor all students to work together, hot to become fragmented. I would strongly agree that communication has been a problem here, and that it is the responsibility of the SA Minority Coordinator to help facilitate communication. Relations have been strained between BSU and SA. and that is where the SA Minority Coordinator Lddy Guity should have come it. Mr. Guity had been selected by the Minority groups to be coordinator and yet I would be hard pressed to give an example of him taking any action as spokesman or mediator in this issue. Mr. Guity seems to have the habit of disappearing when things get tough. One of the most disturbing things to me about this whole incident is that many people we have been working with all year, because they are Minority students, are automatically defending the three defendants. Their recent behavior has been militany, abusive and uncooperative, and we have even been accused ot every wrongful deed since the Scottsboro Boys case. 1 can understand the pressure for unity, but in this case it is very much misguided. To succumb to pressure to defend men who are wrong merely because they arc Black is self-defeating. To defend solely because of the color ot one's skin can only serve to propogate negative stereotypes about the people they represent. What is needed here arc individuals who have the courage to make up their own minds rather than those who find it easier to go along. The leadership of the BSU is wrong here in the methods that have been used. Instead of Cooperation and communication, there has been violence and deception. The issue that started all this was fiscal responsibility, but the BSU leadership being caught in a poor position cries “racism” to divert attention away from the real issue. Another important issue is involvement. In order for any system to work, it must bring all groups into that system. Yet no group can be allowed to abuse the system, to threaten the people in it, to claim they are not a part ot it, and at the same time to demand the benefits of being part without the responsibilities that go along with it. I want to make it clear Student Association has no intention of trying to harm Minority students, or any students for that matter. And yet it must be understood that at the very least the officers and representatives of all organizations must act with both responsibility and respect in order to make things work. - - — (Juest Opinion by Steve Spiegel As might be expected when something as controversial the audit of cash advances and the assault on a student as hits the paper, there will be reactions in the student body. What also might be expected are rumors and false statements that arise from such incidents. I would imagine many students aren’t sure what to think at this point. I would like to use this opportunity to set the facts straight and to present my opinion on’ what's been happening. The best place to start is with the article which contained the most damaging false information, the January 24th article by Beunice Sullivan. To say the least this was a distorted piece of writing. The majority ol the article, purports statements to be tacts when these statements are not facts because they are inaccurate or false. The Hearing Committee recommendation was tor two expulsions and one suspension, the three defendants are-temporarily suspended until the University President decides on the case, which has not happened yet. The testimony attributed to me is not the testimony I had given. The statement about Robert Tribble is nor a statement of fact, but solely the contention ot the detense; and yet the fact that three witnesses placed all three defendants as taking an active part in the assault was omitted from the article. Other testimony was distorted and the report of Mrs. Palisano and myself having filed civil suit is also false. A possible explanation behind that article might be the events leading to Ms. Sullivan’s writing the article. The defense has the right in a University Hearing to refuse admittance to the press, but the press was allowed to attend. The rule is any press or no press. When The Spectrum Editor-in-Chief and the Campus Editor requested admittance, the leadership ot BSU said it was alright only if they were allowed to review the copy before it went to press. The Spectrum rightfully refused and was told they could not attend, even though this wasn t true. Now Beunice Sullivan was admitted as a friend of the defense and later volunteered since she is also a The Spectrum writer to do the article. The Spectrum decided that if they couldn’t have an editor, any writer would do. There is little doubt now that this was a mistake. There are two clarifications I would like to make in regard to-Danny Parker’s article - in the January 28th issue. The Minority Coordinator’s budget had been frozen because of his involvement in the travel advances. This would not normally affect minority organizations unless there was an event scheduled through that line. PODER did have an event scheduled which we were unaware of, when we found out the line was unfrozen. The freeze was in no way intended to attect PODER or any other directly minority organization, but only those budgets involved. The first audit committee was referred to as being non-professional, and there are negative connotations to that term. I would like to point out that two members of the Office of Student Affairs were part of that committee Friday, 11 February 1977 . The Spectrum Page seventeen . �General S.A.

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

He was a good father.” “When 1 told my editor that Calabrese and I were going to meet, he didn’t ask any questions; he filled out a voucher for $500 and gave it to me. When I went downstairs to cash the voucher in, they told me that the information on where I was going and what I was doing had to be filled in. The voucher was then brought to the publisher and after my editor was called upstairs, he came down to tell me tq go ahead. This was very rare. The voucher had been cleared, and no one knew where I was going.” “When I met Calabrese,” Coppola continued, “he told me that if I had been standing next to him when he read my article, he would have choked me. But he told me that the only reason he was here was that he checked me out and found than was O.K.” Never been threatened But what about his reaction to the Don Bolles murder? After all, Bolies was a reporter whose last words were, “The Mafia, they finally got me.” Coppola remembers, , “my wife came running into the room after hearing about the incident on the eleven o’clock news. She was incoherent; babbling words bomb, explosion, death, did you hear. She went on, ‘why do you have to write about the Mafia, why can’t you write about garden parties?’ I was a little uneasy, but I was never scared. In fact, my fellow workers at the News were more fearful for me than I was, and that made me feel good.” In the many years Lee Coppola has written about organized crime, he has never once been personally threatened. “Through relatives and friends, there have been ‘suggestions’ made that I stop. My father has been stopped and asked, ‘why is your son doing this to us.’ And to the man’s credit, he has stuck by me and said, ‘that’s his job.’ Does Coppola know actually who these men are? “Yes I do,” he said — ” solemnly. Since organized crime-related stories are infrequent, Coppola has another field of writing. “1 am basically a rewrite man. I’m the guy everyone depends on. I have the lead story. I take the worded story that is recorded off the phone, rewrite it and make it into the written story. I love writing. 1 wouldn’t do it if I didn’t like it. It is very demanding and it is a lot of hard work.” But what about the pressure the journalist faces every day? “I thrive under deadline pressure. I feel that 1 do my best work when an editor tells me I have fifteen . .T journalism,’ journalism where you go to the scene of a fire and sweat out a story. I’ve often told some of my friends that they should be a journalist for two weeks. They would find out a lot about themselves as well as other people.” Like most professionals, Coppola has his idols. “The two writers that I read most are Jimmy Breslin and Mike Royko . When I was younger, I used to read all the novels of Nevil Shute. He wrote On The Beach, and some other World War II stories.” In a city like Buffalo, Coppola maintains that “two newspapers are necessary. The Courier makes us a better newspaper because it makes us work that much harder. There are things within the Buffalo Evening News that .1 would like to see changed. I really feel that the News is losing its touch with the young readers. 1 .. A would like to see the News incorporate a new flare in its writing that would attract young readers, and more recently it has. But what I like most about the News is that it is large enough to be a metropolitan newspaper, yet include enough small to community news.” minutes to write a story. Some guys crack under this kind of only pressure and take they that can assignments complete at their leisure. 1 go for ‘armpit V ' Organized crime u“™' A onetime dream has become reality for Lee Coppola. He is a working journalist. But what about young people today who are going into journalism? What is Coppola’s advice to them? “Ya know, I could kill and Bernstein. Woodward Journalism is no the exciting glamorous life they portrayed. we Watergate, Before had two-hundred applicants per year, competing for one-hundred openings. Now we have a thousand applicants for the same number of openings. But maybe that is good. Like all professions, we’ll get the cream of the crop. Ultimately, that may make the profession better.” For Lee Coppola, that is very impoftant.

The Lakers are coming! This Saturday night at 7:30 p in. and Sunday at 2 p.m. the Oswego Great Lakers come to the Tonawanda Sports Center for a two game set against the hockey Bulls. A loss at tli is time would certainly hamper Buffalo’s playoff hopes, as they are currently 8-4 in Division II. ,a game and a half ahead of Oswego, who is d-6. "We can’t afford to lose another Division II game." said Bulls coach Ld Wright. (Only Division II games count towards making the playoffs.) to be Long considered Buffalo’s arch-rivals, the Lakers are one of the finest checking teams in Division II. and always seem to provide stiff competition for their opponents. Buffalo and Oswego have met two times, this season, will) each squad recording one victory. The Bulls were defeated 4-3 in last at Oswego overtime November 17. hut came hack to sink the Lakers h-3 in the Llmira on Invitational Tournament December 4. Last year the teams were , 1-1-1 in head to head competition, and Buffalo has an 8-7-1 edge overall. Forget the past But Wright feels that against a team like Oswego, nothing but the present matters. "You can throw all record and past performances right out the window. A game against Oswego is like 'being in a dark room looking for a string light switch." said Wright. The chief lamp lighters for the Lakers are Ray Seeback. Greg Preston, and Ron Gabrielli. who form the team’s number one line. Seeback and Preston, at center and right wing, are small in stature but big in goals. In the first two the Bulls this games against season.

The Buffalo skaters made a mockery of their last contest, a 14-2 slaughter of the Cortland Stale Dragons last Tuesday night. Seven different players scored for the Bulls, led by Costello’s four tallies. An/.a'lone and Dixon had tricks of' their own. as the Bulls left their mark on three different goalies. Buffalo had beaten the Dragons earlier in the year. 10-4, hut dial game was played evenly through the last two periods. I his "contest” was a laugher from the start, as the Bulls had built a 7-0 lead after just one frame. A game such as the one against Cortland serves as a confidence buildei for the skaters, and should bolster their spirits for the Oswego series. It should be interesting to see what shape the Bulls' spirits are in on Sunday night, after the games against the hat issue of ODl magazine. On sale now! Lakers. Friday, 11 February 1977 .

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Currently, there are groups beginning in the Ellicott District, Masten District, Niagara District and one in the University District. Pittman has made arrangements with Cora P. Maloney College to enable students who volunteer to work on Drug Abuse Prevention Councils to receive credit for their experience. The course, directed by Brian Lewis, an intern at the Student Counselling Center, is a combination of fieldwork and classroom participation.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Conklin, the city loses five and one-quarter million dollars each year to its large population of diplomats, who are immune to parking fines and registration fees. Sen. Conklin was quoted in the New York Daily News as saying: “We’re talking here in terms of approximately 240,000 unpaid parking tickets annually.

The old mark of about 126 inches was surpassed sometime back in December, and the present total exceeds 160 and is climbing. However, for Buffalo residents the most recent storm has meant a number of other “firsts,” and, bad or good, the experience of a lifetime. Buffalo Police Commissioner Thomas R. Blair commented, “It brought oui the best and the worst in us." While hundreds of volunteers worked to aid stranded victims of the storm cooking, delivering medicines and food, rescuing stranded motorists widespread looting struck downtown establishments. So many individuals were interred in the Erie County Holding Center Tuesday night that officials were forced to release 20 persons due to dwindling food supplies, and inaccessibility of roads leading to other facilities. what a storm!’ height, stranded in their cars, victims of carbon monoxide poisoning, heart attacks, and exposure. Many others, however, were saved by sympathetic households and “relief stations” set up in churches and schools. Buffalo Mayor Stanley Makowski declared the city in a “state of emergency” Tuesday morning, making automobile travel for non-essential purposes a misdemeanor offense, subject to imprisonment or fine. As of Wednesday night, 35 people had been charged with violation of the order. The drastically reduced traffic aided snow,removal efforts, which involved tons of equipment borrowed from New York City and other areas, as well as a 300-man Army airborne engineer «task force from Fort Bragg, N.C. - Ice age At least twelve people perished during the storm’s As one Buffalo newscaster remarked. “The last winter like this all the dinosaurs died.” Fuel crisis As of Wednesday night, city officials were still pressing President Jimmy Carter to declare Western New York a “major disaster area,” making local governments eligible for federal reinbursement of money spent for snow removal operations, and Buckley Amendment Implementation of regulation being snagged by state laws by Steve Lemken Special to Tlh Spectrum (CPS) flic controversial Buckley Amendment is once again causing' bat tielines • to he drawn si u d e n I s a nd b e I \v e en administrators.

He went so far as to imply that new, minimal rules and adequate criteria for the protection of student rights could be “written on the back of an envelope over a city. Compounding the snow paralysis is the fuel shortage that has struck the area. Residents have been requested to turn their thermostats down to 55 degrees at night and 65 during the day to conserve fuel; however, these conservation measures have either been inadequate, or not enough Buffalonians have complied. Fuel shortages have forced most area schools to close if they weren’t already compelled by the weather.

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

He built it in the fall of 1974 when he and his wife became active with the Citizens Energy Council, battling construction of nuclear power plants.

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

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

The meeting centered on problems between the Black Student Union (BSU) and SA which have peaked in recent weeks over Speigel’s alleged assault last month by three BSU members, and SA’s audit of BSU’s use of student activity fees. The fight in the SA office resulted in one student being the indefinite expelled and suspension of two others. Student Ora Clark moved Senator unsuccessfully that SA protest the expulsion and suspensions. It failed by 14 votes to eight. BSU the spokesman throughout meeting expressed their dismay that no action was taken against Spiegel. Most of the hostility came over disucssion of intimidation with SA claiming they were the victims and minority spokesman claiming they were intimidated by SA. Lack of respect the discussion Throughout students many argued that this was not a racial issue, but one caused by a lack of respect between the two groups and a breakdown of communications. Acting BSU President Walter Haddock told an unusally large audience that relationships between SA and BSU were “strained to the point where SA is incapabale of dealing with BSU.” SA President Steve Schwartz observed on the same subject, “I’d be a fool to say that prejudice doesn’t exist in SA or BSU.” Representatives of BSU and PODER also voiced complaints over the audit of BSU’s travel funds. SA felt it was necessary to look into a discrepancy between the amount of money advanced and the number' of receipts returned. After an initial investigation conducted by a committee non-professional headed by Neil Seiden, SA Assistant Treasurer, and Arthur Lalonde, Sub Board Treasurer, SA froze all advance money for BSU. Outraged by this decision, BSU requested a professional audit supervised by the administration. Dr. Anthony Lorenzetti, Assistant to the Vice President for Student Affairs, ordered the audit which started yesterday and should be completed in a few days. Once the audit is completed, representatives of SA and the BSU will be called in, and a final audit will be presented. Other groups affected The freeze also affected the of minority organizations PODER, AZTECA, and NACAO, until Wednesday afternoon, when it was lifted for all minority BSU. except organizations PODER spokesmen said SA never took into account the affect of the action on PODER’s activity. BSU spokesmen made a large part of their argument the “white domination” in SA, The Spectrum and administration, and the daily verbal intimidation of non-whites. contend that the They confrontation between Spiegel and the suspended student, John was a Lott, “one-on-one” situation in which both should be punished equally. SA Minoirty Affairs Coordinator Ed Guity commented, “Violence in society is not new, you [SA] intimidated us to the point of violence.” Acting BSU President Haddock stated, “Ass-whipping is not over until you treat me with respect. If I was there I would have whipped his ass too.” Members of SA contend that Spiegel was the victim of a beating, and that there is no reason he should be suspended. Both Schwartz and Spiegel did not answer the accusations. They said they had been advised by the prosecuting attorney not to discuss the case until the end of the trial in criminal court. Weekend University shut-down The University is closed today (Friday, January 28) through Sunday (January 30).

Graduates’union demands negotiations, will ‘act’ by R. Gilbert Staff Writer Spectrum The Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) formally notified the University Administration yesterday that it must begin to negotiate the 16 demands formulated by Union members last semester. In a letter to President Robert Ketter and Acting President Albert Somit, GSEU President Howard Kling further declared that the Union will be “compelled to act” if its demand for negotiations is not satisfactorily answered by February 4. ‘If you refuse Kling enclosed in the GSEU demand package a breif letter which stated, “We know that without our intervention, the deplorable conditions which give rise to these complaints will continue. Without the urging of graduate students themselves, your administration will do nothing. We can’t be expected to believe your position has changed or that any of your good intentions will be translated into deeds.” The letter concluded, “If you refuse to negotiate, the GSEU will be compelled to act . . . Graduate student employees. . . will be forced to take appropriate action.” Though unclear as to what action it would take should the Administration not respond by the February 4 deadline, the possibility of a strike referendum was raised by the Union. In the event of a yes vote, the likelikhood of an ensuing strike by the Union. In the event of a yes vote, the been widely speculated as possible. Job action for Union recognition and other demands have been successfully carried out elsewhere in the country, notably at the University of Wisconsin in 1975. Options, demands listed In a letter to all graduate student employees, the Union has announced a “critical” Union council meeting on February 6, to determine what actions need be taken in light of the Administration’s response, whatever it may be. Among the possibilities listed for consideration in the event of an unsatisfactory reply, were rallies and demonstrations, informational picketing of University buildings, and the holding of a strike referendum. Included in the detailed demand package submitted to the Administration were: a minimum wage of $5490 up from the present average of about $3000, which was set in 1968; a continuation of tuition waivers now threatened to be cut or eliminated;restoration of graduate employee positions cut in 1975; a reduction in present unmanageable class sizes; implementation of Affirmative Action guidelines; demands for safe working conditions, worker’s health, accident and compensation coverage, insurance; and of the unemployment crucially, recognition Union. Strike vote last spring In a similar situation last year, Ketter met with GSEL) representatives and later responded to a list of five demands with claims that he had little authority to address the grievances, but could express his “concern.’’ The GSEU claimed that Ketter was “stalling” and consistently unsatisfactory, and called for a strike vote after a Week of demonstrating and picketing. Amidst letters by Ketter to graduate employees telling them of his requests for increased state graduate student employee funding, and after a sudden Reporter article that warned of the possible loss of their tax exempt status should graduate students unionize, the GSEU proposal to strike failed by 17 votes. Of the approximately 935 state-funded graduate student employees here, 514 voted in that referendum, and though a strike vote was favored 308 to 206, the minimum 325 required to strike was not reached. Despite the proposal’s defeat, Union members at that time were bouyant at the comparatively large vote turnout, and the extreme closeness of the referendum, wherein 60 percent of those voting favored a strike. Conflict likely Initial moves in the developing Union/University conflict do not indicate the likelihood that negotiations will occur easily. GSEU’s status as an organization has been central to the dispute between the two parties throughout the last semester. The Union, attempting to force the University to bargain collectively with graduate student employees, has sought recognition as a union from the state’s Public Employee Relations Board (PERB). The University is contesting GSEU’s petition, and in order not to “prejudice” the case, Somit has refused to officially meet with members of the Union. . . . legal problems are involved if Dr. Somit meets with what is still presently neither a legally constituted union, nor a recognized student group,” wrote Vice President for Student Affairs Richard Siggelkow in a letter to The Spectrum last October. “ Still no meeting PERB sources at the time, however, told The Spectrum that it would, in fact, be legal for Somit to meet with GSEU representatives, even during PERB deliberations on the GSEU petition for recognition. GSEU has since withdrawn its petition, when it became apparent that PERB would not recognize the Union, on the grounds that it was not a state-wide organization. A meeting with Somit, according to Union sources, has yet to occur, leaving the Union stalemated, unless “action” is taken. Given rising inflation, possible large increases in class sizes due to the course load controversy* and the final revocation since last year of unemployment insurance and worker’s compensation for graduate student employees, Union spokespersons believe that graduate employee sentiment continues to increase in favor of some effective job action. �Confused registration for phys-ed classes Financial aid deadline Financial aid applications for 1977-78 are now available at the Financial Aid Office, 312 Stockton Kimball Tower. The deadline to return financial statements to the College Scholarship Service is February 1, 1977. Form UB must be reutmed to the Financial Aid by Jeffrey M. Strumeyer Office by March 1. Undergraduate EOF students should obtain their forms from their EOF advisors in Diefendorf Hall. Spectrum As a result of a misunderstanding between the Department of Recreation, Athletics and Related Instruction (RAI), and Admissions and Records, a plan to facilitate the registration of seniors in physical education classes was not implemented. The program, devised by RAI and the Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE), called for the closing of all RAI courses after the processing of senior preregistration forms. However, nobody at Admissions and Records was notified of the plan, and it was not set in motion according to Assistant Director for Registration and Systems Development, Richard Canale. Richard Dremuk, director of Admissions and Records, stated the first time he heard about the plan was when he read about it in The Spectrum. Drop-in center Counseling offered in Amherst Starting Monday, the Drop-In Counseling Center is expanding to the Amherst Campus. Located in Harriman Room 67S, the Drop-In Center, an extension of the University Counseling Center, will occupy for the first time the level 2 lounge in building 5 of Richmond Quad at the Ellicott Complex.

The Drop-In Center offers immediate counseling to any member of the' University community, on any problem that may be bothering them. There are no applications, no records, no revealing of names. People are encouraged to come if they need only to talk to someone about a problem in day-to-day life. “Sometimes it’s easier to talk to somebody you don’t know rather than your friends,” Adema ask “We never explained. anybody’s name and there’s no follow-up committment to come back.” Those who come to the Drop-In Center, like the volunteer there, staff which counsels represent a cross section of University life. They vary from freshman to full professors. Increased visibility Staff Writer No participation Both Dremuk and Canale said even if they had been notified in advance, the process devised by RAI and DUE could not have been used. The halting of the registration process in order to close courses which had openings remaining would have been impractical. Dremuk and Canale stressed the basic problem with seniors not getting gym classes was their lack of participation in advanced registration. According to Dremuk, of four thousand seniors in this University, only eighteen hundred turned in their advance forms before the December deadline. Jacqualyn Cramer, Senior Academic Advisor, an instrumental force in planning the preregistration proposal explained DUE was responsible for advertising the procedure and RAI was supposed to make the final arrangements for the plan’s implementation. Sal Esposito, chairman of RAI and Diebold, coordinator of Basic Instruction, expressed disappointment that the program was not carried out. There are still approximately thirty places open in RAI courses. Diebold stated that in order to enroll in one of these courses, students should either contact the instructor or come to her Clark Hall office for a list of the open classes. The Drop-In Center staff Waiver applications always has back-up help available Those seniors who cannot fit any of the available courses in their from the University Counseling have another option.

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

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

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

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

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

Specifically, upon Carter’s nomination and up until his election victory, some established leaders, as well as military staff behind NATO of both hemispheres, were worried about Carter’s talk of revamping and altering the government. What did this mean, and how far would he go? They thought he might go too far Left. Big business of both hemispheres were worried about his promised spending programs, reduced tax loopholes, corporate shelters and other privileges. Europe was jittery because of Carter’s announced desire to cut defense spending by 5 to 7 billion dollars, this coming at a time when Soviet military buildup along Germany and Eastern Europe has, seemingly, intensified. In short, all the centers of Western power, the bullwark of modern capitalism, were worried that Carter would be too liberal and soft or, as Bob Dole once suggested, that he- would be a Senator McGovern in rnrngm I (fii Century The New — | Phone 875-4265 • Secondly, we should ask why the Secretary of State, Cyrus Vance, was not chosen to go. Afterall, he is the diplomat-in-chief, and this trip is indeed diplomatic. So, why shouldn’t this trip be Vance’s and not the Vice President’s? By sending Mondale to Europe instead and then by sending Vance to the Middle East and Moscow next month, as well as in his' pledging that “others” administration would also go on representative, diplomatic trips, Carter has apparently constructed a division of labor method in connection with foreign affairs. No more Kissingeresque, one-man shows. Mondale’s trip is symbolic of this intent. Third, as noted earlier, Mondale is visiting Western Europe and Japan, not South Africa or Korea. The choice'of these particular countries is symbolic in terms of the what is uppermost in Carter’s mind Western democracies. Furthermore, these countries are so uppermost in his mind that Tie’s sending his most important personified representative to visit them through Walter Mondale. Thus, for now, the rest of the world, including Moscow, will have to take a back seat. . £ Sponsored by Sub-Board One he. Funded by Mandatory Student Activities Fees - Friday, 28 January 1977 g �Boycott requested A coffee drinker’s crisis by Susan Schacter Spectrum Staff Writer n Eleanor Guggenheim, New York City Commissioner of Consumer Affairs, has called for a one week nationwide boycott of coffee in protest of steadily rising retail prices. Formulated last fall, the boycott began on Wednesday, January 27th in an attempt to stem a price increase that has slowly crept upward since 1973, but amounted to more than 60 percent last year alone. Most of the coffee consumed by Americans today is imported from Brazil, leaving wholesale purchasers here at the mercy of plantation Brazilian coffee owners, who are responsible for the initial rise in prices. The owners attributed the high rise in coffee prices to a frost in Brazil that they claim destroyed half of their crop. Research, by Jean Endee, Consumer Affairs Public Relations secretary, suggests that wholesale prices went up the day after the temperature went down. At this time there was certainly enough coffee to supply public demand; thus it was not a sufficient reason for the jump in coffee prices she stated. Endee further suspected that there is even enough coffee at the present time to meet the cravings huge of the coffee-drinking population in this country. Cut in half Fifty-two percent of the New York City residents recently polled by Consumer Affairs were either boycotting coffee or cutting down their drinking habits by 50 percent. The City’s the administration supported boycott in a manner of speaking when it reduced by 30 percent its budget allocation for the purchase of coffee in city institutions. The movement has subsequently spread throughout the United States and is being supported by restaurants and supermarkets as well as many individuals. On an international level, countries such as Australia, Canada, and the Virgin Islands, have registered support for the * boycott. Unfortunately, local Buffalo participation is minimal., In fact, the only upstate area to have taken real interest in the boycott is Syracuse, where numerous supermarkets and small stores are urging their customers to buy tea instead of coffee by lowering the price of tea to wholesale value. No Buffalo support There is no organized support in Buffalp for the boycott, either in the.'brty or on this campus. With the exception of the Tops supermarket chain, stores have not shown any interest or concern for the boycott. The manager of University Plaza Super Duper said the only signs indicating a public awareness of the coffee crisis is the stampede of coffee drinkers rushing to stock up on coffee. Jim Decarlo, an employee of the Buffalo branch of the Board of Consumer Affairs stated, “We feel that if someone wants to boycott, it is their own decision.” The University has witnessed few staunch supporters of the When asked their boycott. feelings, many students answered with embarrassed giggles and confessions that they knew about it, or they nothing dismissed the question with a quick nod and said, “Yeah, 1 guess I’ll support it.” On the other hand, there were some students who displayed were serious about assisting in the boycott. No drop at Food Service A cashier in the Rathskeller said there was no apparent drop in the purchase of coffee and Richmond Food Service Manager Robert Dieckman said, “People at Food Service have already purchased the coffee for this semester so we won’t be able to support the boycott through a reduced purchase of coffee. We fully extend our support on a personal level, however, we will in no way influence the students to support the boycott.” While disclosing her research, Endee stressed that the consumer must be patient because it is not expected that the boycott will be effective immediately. If enough people participate the week of the 27th and then reduce their consumer has paid the price for whims of big business,” she stressed. “This boycott has been organized to prove to the international office that consumers will no longer tolerate prices going up. When agreements are drawn up the consumer must be considered.” Commissioner Guggenheim has recently been attending meetings in Washington where solutions to the present situation are being discussed. Meetings with Brazilian leaders will be part of the up and coming agenda. It is hoped that the matter will soon be settled, permitting Americans to return to an inexpensive morning pot of consumption by half, it is assumed that within a few months, people will witness a drop in the cost of coffee. The most basic economic law states that as the demand for a good goes down the price goes down. With coffee, however, as with other food products, controlled by international agri-business, it is possible that this law could breakdown. One episode Endee said that coffee is only one example in a string of economic injustices faced by the consumer. “It is not only coffee that we are boycotting, but the periodic rise in the cost of sugar, rice, and other products. The coffee. Search goes on for alternate energy Editor’s note: The following article is the fourth in a series submitted by the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) on alternative energy sources. This article deals with the implementation of Solar Panels and the harnessing energy contained in the wind. by Marshall Ausuebel Special to The Spectrum A windmill in your backyard? Solar panels on your roof? Everyone has heard of these possibilities, but only in the context of “exotic energy sources of the future.” Are these really the fuels of the future? Before the Rural Electrification Program of the 1940’s, every farm had a windmill to provide all the mechanical some power necessary and electrical power. As cheap utility electric power spread across the country, windmills were put to pasture. Now, fossil fuels are expensive and destructive. Whole mountains are stripped to get to a seam of coal. Waste from nuclear power plants must be guarded for thousands of years. Are you willing to pay? The sun always shines Thousands of people across this country are discovering the joys of alternate energy. Readers of Popular Science are building their own solar panels to heat their homes. Windmills are again being built to provide cheaper power. Even space satellites are being considered to transmit the xrwer of the sun. In Colorado, energy consultant Ron Shore built a solar heating system for his home. Using a 5300 gallon tank and aluminum panels on the roof, the system keeps his heated subzero in home temperatures in the Rockies at a cost of only $2 per month (to run a small pump). The system which cost $3000 to build can be repaid in 30 months of winter, since normally he would pay $100 per month for utility heat. Most systems available can provide most of the heat necessary to warm a home in winter and cool it in summer by running the system in reverse.

Wind systems are one source of energy that cause the least damage to the environment. The widespread use of windmills before the Rural Electrification demonstrated the Program feasibility of decentralized power and demonstrated one could have power without being hooked up to a utility’s meter.

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

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

Veterans of many icy winters swear by this method of introducing a warm body into a cold environment. By taking shallow and progressively deeper breaths through the nose only, the body becomes gradually acclimatized to the change in temperature. Through an open mouth, however, the body immediately feels the shock of an icy air blast.

Another day oler and deeper in debt. —miner's folk song For the past two centuries, the relationship between employees and employers has been examined, argued and philsophized. Do workers in this country have the right to bargain collectively with their employers, to assure themselves of a decent living wage and working conditions, to unionize? Before we envision coal miners, orange pickers and factory workers, let us first realize that a ramification of the issue that is the Graduate immediately concerns the University at large Student Employee's Union's two year attempt to gain recognition as a — union The Administration has yet to realize that the graduate students presently employed as instructors and assistants here are entitled to the same rights as any other State worker. In spite of a consistant and relatively quiet attempt to approach the Administration for consultations and acceptance, University officials have responded with deceptions and intolerance when they've responded at all. Basic, important questions raised by the GSEU have been left unanswered. They include: Who will defend the TA fired from his position for promoting ideas offensive to some unscrupulous administrator? Who will demand an accounting by the University when a chemistry TA is seriously injured due to dangerous, but still uncorrected, safety violations in the laboratories, but is nevertheless denied any type of workman's compensation or accident insurance? And, who will stand up to the administrators when and if a five-course load is mandated, and the same number of TAs must teach 25 percent more classes. The Administration's actions to date have added up to a flagrant denial of rights far more basic, if not as old, as the right to free speech and a free press. Let us be explicit —We support the right of graduate employees to vote for representation by a union of their choice. -We support that union's right to collectively bargain with their member's employer: the University. —We support the graduate student employee's right to a decent wage, safe and bearable working conditions, and an effective grievance — Crib notes for Doty slippery for 1) When snow reaches the road, it is To the Editor. therarr. After hearing Doty’s decision to close school Thursday at 9:30 a.m., 1 have to conclude that there are a few facts that he is not aware of. Not knowing exactly what level he is on, for his sake I will start with the simple. 1) The white stuff that falls from the sky is called snow. 2) When it reaches the ground, it has a tendency to stay there until the temperature gets to a certain point at which time it will melt. 3) The big spaces between the buildings all over town are called roads. These are for cars. 4) A car is a machine that moves for the purpose of transportation. Dr. Doty, study these four principles and quiz yourself. If you think you understand, you may now move on to the more complicated material. 2) When a car slides over the road, a person can get hurt. early as 7:30 3) Many of us get in our cars as school to drive to am. CONCLUSION. If you close school at 9:30 a.m. many of us will drive anyway because we don’t two hours know at 7:30 what your mind will do later. I’m sure that you will study this material. Please keep in mind that the purpose of this is so that you may apply it to real situations. 1 haven’t heard the weather report but I suspect you will have a surprise quiz soon. Pull an “all-nighter” and take No-Doz if you have to. William Henry Jones III On thin ice To the Editor. I am writing this editorial to show one small example of the lack of “student orientation” I have seen on this .campus for the last four years. I define student orientation as the willingness of the University to answer the needs and desires of the students. The first weekend of February has been designated as the winter carnival period. 1 recently talked with one of the planners of the carnival. I asked if ice skating on Lake LaSalle was included in the festivities. The answer was no, the administrators won’t allow it. Those that live in Ellicott, closest to the lake, have all heard various reasons and excuses why this fantastic natural facility (it is an athletic alternative to the over crowded bubble) cannot be used. One of the most ridiculous was that the scuba gear is stored on Main Street and if anyone managed to fall through two feet of ice, it would take Security, excuse me Campus Police, 20 minutes to arrive with the gear. What’s the gear doing at Main Street, there’s no lake at Main Street? 1 think they should redefine their goal. It seems that their present goal is to not have people skating on the lake. Instead their goal should be to not have anyone drown in the lake. Their present gaol cannot be achieved, people still skate on the lake. The new goal could be achieved by testing the ice, marking off an area for skating and having rescue equipment readily available. This seems to me to be a much more sensible answer to the real issue and would achieve the real goal. Wouldn’t it be a terrific conclusion to the winter carnival to have a large bonfire out by the lake Saturday night with everyone ice skating and having a good time. Come on administrators, dig those old skates out of the attic and “lead the way.” Ray Spencer, Fargo Good clean fun >|k Deference to ‘chops’ procedure —And we will support any job action the Administration may force the Union to take in obtaining these fair and basic demands. by Richard B.

We call for an active undergraduate leadership and grass roots I’m one of these fellows. In Buffalo, 1 imagine participation in fighting the problems that ail us, as undergraduates.

Alone, support movement. In doing so we should keep in mind an easily except for an imaginary audience who’s watching my forgotten fact: graduate student employees are on the frontline of nimble fingers propel them into space with searing notes from unheard of registers. And I’m also administration cutbacks and abuses. Let us remember that like any other employer, the University has watching them as they watch my body, ecstatic from the rushes of very good cocaine and very smooth only its own interests at heart. We're all University employees in this Jack Daniels. I’m not particularly proud of these respect. fantasies, but I’m fond of them nevertheless. I started playing guitar when I first came to college, having decided that four years of school would at least teach me something. That something We don't need to say too much about the insensitivity was a lot more than 1 expected, more than four years administrators have shown the University community this winter. But worth, certainly. 1 can’t adequately express how yesterday was really too much. With a -43 wind chill factor, and roads much pleasure 1 get when I play with a couple of friends, or find someone new with whom the music becoming more impassable each minute, the administration once again immediately clicks. I know it all sounds like some gave notice early yesterday morning that the University would be open. half-baked, romantic rap, but it is the way I feel. For Then it turned around and decided to close the University at 9 a.m., me, no experience has ever been higher. A whole lot comes out when a few people light just after many students had already braved the tempest, some from as far as Lackawanna and Lancaster. People can very possibly be hurt a joint, tune up and try to create a single thing music. Personalities become obvious as one player’s coming here from long distances in Artie weather conditions. Doesn't ego attempts to control the flow; as another, less anyone in the University administration give a damn? confident in his playing, tries to keep up the rhythm; the third, well, he fancies himself as the element holding it all together the stability, he likes to think and offers what’s lacking in the middle. That’s where guitar etiquette enters the dynamic. The cardinal rule is to always follow the guy that's best, or “Defer to Chops.” (“Chops” Friday, 28 January 1977 Vol. 27, No. 49 being the individual’s ability to execute difficult chord changes, blazing barages of single note runs, Editor in-Chief Rich Korman and/or a good singing voice.)

You notice that I refer to guitar players as “he” or “him.” I am not using these terms generically, as I have yet to play with a woman who had chops, who held the guitar as a natural part of herself, and who could utilize the instrument as a unit or communication. Not that these women don’t exist; W jtm but 1 don’t believe many do. Joni Mitchell is pretty good, but her voice and song-writing ability are far greater. Bonnie Raitt knows what she’s doing, but her appeal seems to lie elsewhere. No female Jimi Hendrix’s, or Jerry Garcia’s, or George Benson’s have come to my attention. There’s a reason and it has nothing to do with physical ability. It requires a modicum of strength to play electric guitar, but a great deal of macho passion to wail away on a $500 chrome-metal, four-foot, hot-smoking penis strung around one's neck because it's so big and heavy, for God’s sake. Only a man could believe that there’s something he could do that’s so worthy, so necessary that infinite decibles, miles of wire and thousands of dollars is justifiable in its pursuit. But for me and my friends (most of whom play guitar), the awareness of the guitar politic is subsumed by the joy of this oftentimes totally pure interaction. For a group of men, this cannot be dismissed lightly. We are able to encourage each other, share knowledge, and watch the progress that comes with practice the endless hours spent playing from a songbook or jamming on nothing in particular. Collectively dreaming of being part of that rock and roll band that’s funkier than a wah-wah pedal, cooler than all hell, and yet utterly dedicated to their instruments and their music: ah. — such rapture unparalelled. It’s not quite like that for everyone who picks up a guitar, probably, and that’s good. Some people enjoy the guitar for the abject stoned fun it gives them and nothing more no professional aspirations, no supple, writhing groupies, no great drugs at hip Rolling Stone parties. But even they, I suspect, hear all those lame groups at dark little bars — playing the same tired licks over and over, and believe they could do it better, or at least avoid the trappings of bad jokes and silly Elton John songs. I’ve never been as disciplined or dedicated to anything other than the guitar. 1 love to read about them, talk about them (which is to say pretend 1 know more than 1 really do), collect them, and have them around. They’re a source of security, something I can do pretty well and improve with a proportionate expenditure of energy. My future with it is in my hands, so to speak, and that sense ot control is reassuring. Kven if 1 forget about the future, forget my expectations and fantasies, 1 love it. And believe me. there are few things in which 1 am so sure. �rvTTTuVTi L’> :• f v. r.: ; ;J 'Sizwe Bansi' A glimpse into being black—and being human by Bill Maraschiello Arts Editor of Sky's Bar, the only place where he is truly treated like a man, and exhorts the audience, "Let’s all go to Sky's one of the place!" Despite his flashes of righteous anger this brightest of which occurs just a few moments later is Fugard's invitation to all of us; to find, or build, a place where our dignity will not be denied. As prologue to that kind of a statement, the first half of Bansi through pleasant enough and certainly not negligible, is pale by comparison. It's an energetic, funny monologue by one Styles, also played by Martin, describing his progress from laborer in an auto plant to owner of a photography studio the same studio to which Bansi is to come for his new passbook picture. — That two Athol Fugard plays The Blood Knot and Sizwe Bansi Is Dead have been brought to Buffalo within two months of each other, (Blood Knot here at this university, Sizwe Bansi currently running at the Studio Arena Theatre) is a happy feast after an unfortunate famine. Having seen both plays in a rather short space of time with their impact possibly heightened by their I'm convinced that Fugard is a very close proximity important playwright, and that his work has been absent from a theatrical scene as nominally devoted to "new theatre" as Buffalo is for far too long. That time lag, though, has made Fugard and his work more topical than ever. For Fugard is a South African a white South African. And Both Blood Knot and Sizwe the volatile, violent Bansi are coursing with black blood people oppression of a to whom is a fact, not a lifestream — — — — — — slogan. — — Kudos The sequence has a loose, improvised feel and it surely owes much to John Kani, who created the part and was formerly an auto plant employee himself; with Winston Ntshona, Kani is given co-authorship credit. There's no denying the undercurrents of rebellion and outrage they're of great help in making the scene true, in fact but the prevailing impression is one of humor. It's good humor, not just in the quality of being funny, but in be ng the kind of humor that allows us to laugh at a har and thus to survive it. — Fugard is fully aware of this, but using politics as a bludgeon is not his way. His greatest sensitivity is to the human nuances of a situation, the common depths of feeling shared by all people. It's that very sensitivity, coupled with a strong concern for people as individuals, that makes Fugard's treatment of racial matters so effective at cutting through and to the basic roots at which everyone can relate to likely be profoundly moved by as well. — Unnatural act In at least one incarnation, Sizwe Bansi was a one-act work (paired in New York with another Fugard one-acter, The Island). The current version fills an entire evening, albeit a bit briefly, but the play would have been better left in its original form, I think. The basic situation, enfolding entirely within the expanded version's second act, centers on the passbook which rules every black South African's life. In it are the parade of government stamps which dictate where one can work, where one can live, one's identity. And the passbook provides a solution for the frustrated life of Sizwe Banski (Joe Seneca) when he has the opportunity to change identities with a dead man by taking the latter's passbook. Fugard does see some humor in the bureaucratic tangle; Bansi's friend Buntu (D'urville Martin) buries him in a five-minute description of how to get a work permit, finishing with "It's simple!" But the primary force is anger anger at the governmental idiocies that chain the lives of people like Bansi, and prevent them from fulfilling themselves. — There's a place for us There is a glorious moment when Bansi stumbles . .. out — ; Both Seneca and Martin give exemplary performances; found Seneca's qualities of strength and nobility striking, I with Martin delightful as Styles in the first act in a literally exhaustive job, and forceful as Buntu in the second. Sizwe Bansi was directed, perceptively, by Woodie King, Jr., whose other work includes Off-Broadway's For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide/When the Rainbow is Enuf. It may have been because of the weather, Sizwe Bansi being a last-minute production (it replaces the previously-scheduled Happy End), or some other factor, but last Friday's premiere performance was very poorly attended for an opening night; also, in the audience of a play whose blackness is undeniable, almost everyone was white. If this speaks of the black community seeing nothing noteworthy in the Studio Arena's attitude towards them, it's a sad reflection on the Theatre. Then again, it may simply be analagous to Groucho Marx's comment to a friend who urged him to read Laura Hobson's Gentlemen's Agreement "I don't have to pay five dollars to find out what it feels like to be a Jew." The money you pay for Sizwe Bansi will buy you a glimpse into being black and being human.

OUR HOURS ARE John Coltrane once told someone who didn't understand the Music and his faithfulness in furthering its Evolution, Man, I can't do nothing with it, but play. Asante sana. Understand that to play is no game, not to be toyed with if you don't know. Fats Waller (I believe) said something to that effect, and when he spoke his words avoided any misbehaving. Creativity is the most Consistent tradition of all, and whatever your calling, sooner or later you must answer for yourself. Or to yourself. The facing of self is inevitable, as well as confronting the theives of your sunsets: sleep with you eyes armed and ready for life fuller than retaliation. Those like Malcolm and John and McCoy Tyner learned not only that, but that it's a never-ending growth which requires full awareness. I daresay that those who experienced the forces of Saud on January T3, 1977 at York University's Burton. Auditorium in Toronto either found out, or will never find out. The Band isn't merely excellent; they are there\ Understand? Excellent is a particular state of being, and the forces of McCoy Tyner, Joe Ford, Ron Bridgewater, Charles Fambrough, Eric Kamau Gravatt, Guilherme Franco are evolving into One with all being; Excellent to the healthy and Noise to the noisemakers who close themselves from their own control. It's where your mind heads. Or is heading. They know. Can we dare? It's our lives, and it isn't about guessing. The beginning is "Mode for Dulcimer" and the version on Focal Point was but a seed blooming. The fragrance here is even more nourishing; Ron's soprano brings to mind waters meditating, flowing forcefully for continuous release; Joe's alto like the other instruments is given much more room to explore, and room is made for him. Playful tenaciousness, superbly vocal is the root of Ford's style, and if anybody thinks I'm saying this because I'm from Buffalo, then you haven’t heard or else you don't want to. Not unusual. Many in Buffalo and elsewhere are guilty of this, and they're supposed to know. Joe is versatility speaking; his alto ranges from tenor to soprano and my eyes jump upward, looking for the cat that's lifting my chin. McCoy smiles; his memories and his smiles will come to clash tonight. Guilherme calls the group back as Charles draws electricity from raw air on his base. Eric and Guilherme become priests of old (?) and the fire is leaping, road-paved for Spirit Saud who does more than walk. The priests and the spirit become trio.

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

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

His target then was a successful writer, perhaps modeled after himself, who neglected love for the selfish pursuit of his own art. It is with a sharp memory of this fictive event that I have come away from the two latest additions to the William Gass canon; an essay-length autobiographical preface to his well known collection of stories, In The Heart of The Heart of The Country (Pocket Books); and a slim didactic and selebratory volume, On Being Blue: A Philosophical Inquiry (David R. Godine). Both wery nean Heart describe the tortures of the writer's craft: "hours of insanity and escape" in a familiar counterpoint in the preface; "Not an enterprise for amateures" takes up the same note in Blue. Both pieces come to terms with the equivocal place of the Wordin an uncaring world. ("Literature," Gass says wistfully in the preface," once held families together better than quarrelling.") Both end with a gay flourish of advice to young writers (and readers); both are bouyed on a sad undercurrent of despair for the English language: '. thus cautioned and encouraged, commanded, warned, persist. . even though . . . there's been perhaps a pouring rain, or factory smoke, an aging wind and winter air, and everything is grey."

In GaSs' world world, I admit "The contemporary American writer is in no way a part of the social and political scene no one . The world does not beckon, nor does it fears his bite greatly reward."

It is a fact.") occurs expectedly; "Serious writing must nowadays be written for the sake of art." Given this underthrum of fatalism, Gass' consciously selfish enthusiasm for writing-as-writing is perhaps understandable; it leads him in obvious directions: "The real world plainly bores us," he asserts in On Being Blue. "What counts is love lavished on speech on every kind, regardless of content and intention." . . . But from here Gass takes a sad turn. He shows himself as a "writer" is perhaps the sense Hemingway meant it as a curse. Writing, the act of creating literature, becomes playing "tricks in f world of rubes I can kiss, kill, and steal easily. Withe it paying, I can get in all the games." ... {Blue) He defines the quality of "blueness" in writing as the perception and rendering of true feeling as opposed to mere sensation, which (he is right) so much of our "literature" is devoted to; yet he insists on constructing his not those of argument, it seems, on crushed bodies failed writers or cheating writers or even those of misguided intellectuals but on the bodies of ordinary people one would think were innocent of literary controversy. No rpatter that these ordinary people are wholly invented, the queer targeting is still there. The contempt Gass feels for you and me is an ugly murmur beneath the smooth stream of his prose, is disquieting beneath his liquid arguments. Blueness is a quality of prose and of mind to be qhersished, he says, and possessing it is rare and good.

Gass here continues his pursuit of !e mot juste, typically, in such a way that his native contempt for ordinary people and his suspicion of social committment on the part of writers throw chilly shadows over the dazzling light of his prose. Once again, his language for its own sake is in both places celebrated as if its existence precluded human love or compassion. This is from "Mrs. Mean," one of the Heart volume stories; The people by me primitively guess that I am enemy and hate me: not alone for being different, or distaining work, or worse, not doing any; but for something that would seem, if spoken for them, words of magic; for take their souls away know it and / play with them: puppet them up to something; / march them through strange crowds and passions; / snuffle at their roots.

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

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

It is as if Cahn is a sage as the employee listens to him speak, holding creed in a gospel. "The job is difficult. You're on the road a lot of the time.

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

I've heard criticism of the Eagles' commercialism, that is, that they're passing up those nice acoustic guitars for the electric soul of One Of These Nights. Bernie Leadon's departure from the group only compounded the anger of many, as he took most of the country flavor with him. Then, the addition of Joe Walsh split the rest of the people who had any feeling about the group into two factions: The folkies who would definitely hate the rock and roll, no matter what, and those who finally figured the Eagles to be something other than a vocals band with no musical spine. Considering myself rather knowledgeable in this I predicted that they would now shake the foundations in concert, and that their records would be as finely produced as always. I was right on the former count. Roosevelt Stadium was a screaming place this summer, and much to my amazement, I heard myself yelling "Crank it up, crank it!!!" I, who once thought the ideal concert behavior was to lay a rose at Joni Mitchell’s feet, or something like that. The crowd vibrated with the electric energy, seemingly pouring out of everywhere. I totally underestimated my reaction to the first album of this Eagles incarnation, though. I expected quality, something solid and reliable. But by the end of "The Last Resort" on side two, I Was breathlessly impressed beyond any calculation. The Eagles once again employed concept their of outlaw-take-the-money-andrun-musician, coupled it with the myth of the California idyll, and constructed an album that comes as close to perfection as Desperado. On The Border was a solid record. One Of These Nights was good, too. But this one is amazing. The malaise that currently permeates rock was lurking in the background of the two former recordings, but apparently thery is no reason for it to be concealed any longer. It erupts in a nightmarish vision with "Hotel California," and roars through from start to finish. Sometimes' I can’t believe that these rockers are from the same band that produced "Best of my Love." These cuts smoke. "Easy Money, fiathless women, red eye whiskey . .are two transformed into self-destructive fanatics, intent on hip suicide, in "Life In The Fast Lane." Joe Walsh first shows up noticably on this song. The lead, the rhythm, the vocals, everything is reminiscent of vintage James they Gang. And the rest of the Eagles can do it play heavy metal with great success. How all this electric talent was diverted for so long is not that understandable. "Victim of Love" is a biting mockery of a girl with ". . . such an easy part. And you know how to play it so well." It’s got just as raw a delivery as its counterpart on side one. Even the ballads have that tone of dissatisfaction. "Wasted Time" has the speaker condescendingly bestowing his pity on a deserted lover, only to find out he is also a character in this plot. Walsh's "Pretty Maids All In A Row" plaintively asks "why must we grow up so fast?" Randy Meisner shows some dim faith in "Try and Love Again." But that feeling of uneasy discontent still prevails. It's a hard look, one without real pity for those involved. Don Henley and Glenn Frey, the group's most visible members, are evolving into writers par excellence. The apocalyptic vision in "The Last matter, "*V — i. I'/ Page sixteen The Spectrum . . The music is majestic, with fading strings in the of Jackson Browne's "The Late Show." My biggest dilemma here is dealing with the single, "New Kid In Town." It's already been played to pieces, unfortunately, and is hard to deal with in the same musical context as the rest of the album. I loved it the first time I heard it; being the first new Eagles music in eighteen months, it was really pretty. It's only problem is that, while lyrically it belongs with the rest of the numbers, it is a little too Eagles-ish for this radically different sound. It's a ooh, ooh, perfectly built 4/4 harmony ballad everybody's talking and will only serve to alienate the musical progressives with AM car radios. It has its moments, though. Glenn Frey just can't sing badly, and the vocal is appreciated as his only lead on the album. J.D. Souther helped in writing, and the song is similar to "Somebody Must Be Wrong," one of the best the Souther-Hillman-FUray band ever did. The thought is well taken. The Eagles, who were once the promising youngsters, are no longer the kids in this game, and they know it. “Hotel California," the opening cut, is far and above the best song on the entire album. Don Felder, who truly comes into his own here in both writing and playing, is probably the most important figure on this cut. His guitar wraps itself around Henley’s piercing vocal, and whips into a frenzied duel with Joe Walsh's lead. Reggae is currently a popular form of musical exploration for many rock bands, and is perfectly integrated into this number. The song builds and builds, lulls for a moment for some woman to say "we are all just prisoners here/ of our own device," and explodes into a terrifying climax: manner — — Last thing I remember, I was Running for the door I had to find the passage back To the place / was before 'Relax' said the night man 'We are programmed to receive You can check out any time you like But you can never leave. “Cousin Cousine is a marvelous film. It will elate you and make you feel exuberant with happiness and joy —GeneShalil WNBC Tv “One of those rare film’s you’ll want to see again and again and again! —Judith Crist Saturday Review ’ And the guitars burn on. The hammering repetition at the end is like dreaming, running but not moving, screaming in your sleep without sound. I took this album to three parties in one weekend, and slipped it on unobtrusively, suspecting that if its identity were known, it would immediately be broken in two. By the end of the first cut, however, various Hot Tuna, Grateful Dead, Hendrix and Patti Smith freaks were yelling more, more, MORE! It was inconveivable to many that this was an EE-gulls album, for Christ's sake. Like, Take It Easy, y'know? I have a sneaking suspicion that this review may do more harm than good, in that those prejudiced against this band's work may find it easier to identify and therefore block out. But Hotel California is truly the finely crafted product of a band that is finally realizing their desired potential. They have transcended the neat little boundaries they are “supposed" to occupy, and the music has endured. I once read the Eagles almost broke up after the first album. It's a good thing they didn't. —Barbara Komansky Friday, 28 January 1977 A FILM BY JEAN CHARLES TACCmElLA STARRING " C “«« '»*nce pisie r ■ guv :^ Nr BA WAUlT v,CTO L NOU marchano Gftumonl Films Pom*r«u Northai Films Oisi Lid ' EXCLUSIVE NOW SHOWING " * « • ■ 684-0700 B 3801 Union Rd.

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

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

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

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

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

Buffalo began the match at a disadvantage, because they had to forfeit both diving events, yielding sixteen points to Fredonia. In addition, the team lacks depth in other areas, and Hill issued a call for help. “Anyone with some swimming or diving ability is needed to add depth to our team,” she said. Anyone interested should contact Hill at practice, weekdays from 5-7 p.m. in Clark Pool. The team also needs timers, and prospective timers are asked to contact team manager Sue Choate before tonight’s meet against Ithaca at Clark Hall at 7 p.m. In the first race of Tuesday’s meet, the 200 yard medley relay, the Blue Devils took the lead after the first three legs, but Buffalo freestyler Sandy Yokota made up the difference, and managed to pull ahead, giving Buffalo a slim win. “The first relay sparked us,” Hill said. “The team was excited and up, Basketball vs. Syracuse, Memorial Auditorium, January 24 Syracuse 91, Buffalo 71.

The bowlers raised their record to 29-6, an .829 percentage. Senior Gigi Ruddy, the top collegiate bowler in New York State last year, had the best night for Buffalo, with a 178.1 average and 535 total pins. She also had the high game for both teams with 205 pins in the third game. Ruddy also has the highest season average on the team. Two of the first team* bowlers for Buffalo, junior Liz Wolszczak and Pat Schafer couldrf’t attend the meet, but coach Jane Poland wasn’t worried. “I didn’t mind much, because I knew Fredonia wouldn’t give us much competition,” she said. After a strong opening game, in which Buffalo took a 58 pin lead, they rolled to victory by taking the next two games of the match. Fredonia bowled a strong third game. Their 751 beat Buffalo’s first two games scores, but Buffalo'bowled an even stronger third game, led by Ruddy’s 205 and Diane Weyer’s 167. Because of the absence of Wolszczak and Schafer, junior Minna Gould and sophomore Amy Burns moved into the first team lineup, and contributed 460 and 395 series, respectively. Gould rolled the second best series for Buffalo. “There’s a lot of competition,” Poland said. “The girls’ averages are pretty close, and the lineup still isn’t set.” “it wasn’t a very good match,” she said. “The competition wasn’t what it should have been.” At least Fredonia’s second team had a good day, as they managed to pull off a surprise win over the Blue Devil’s first team. Tomorrow, Buffalo -will face five other teams in the Buffalo Invitational at Norton Lanes at noon. Competing will be Cornell, Brockport, Fredonia, Ithaca, R.l.T. and Buffalo. The only team the hosts have not yet faced this year is Brockport. „ Buffalo basketball fans had plenty to cheer about Tuesday night, but with just seconds remaining in overtime, the fans held their breath. Milwaukee’s Robert jammer, with his team trailing by one, grabbed an offensive rebound and tried to tip it in. His shot went wild, and Buffalo had a 77-76 overtime win, their second win in three ganies. They are 3-14. ■ Twice, the Bulls battled baok from small deficits, once at the end of regulation, and once in overtime to take the hard-fought contest. Buffalo had opened up an eight point halftime lead, but when guard George Cooper injured a finger and was replaced, Buffalo lost some of their leadership. Then, in a span of two minutes, Milwaukee ran off ten straight points to go up by four. It was then that the Bulls showed their determination. Buffalo center Sam Pellom, having an excellent night, hit a layup, and seconds later then grabbed a rebound and stuffed it, tying the game. Then, the race to the finish began. Jammer, the Panthers’ center, and Buffalo’s leading scorer. Ed Johnson, traded baskets, and the score remained tied with 1:12 left. Buffalo called time out and set their offense. “We were in. an ‘open’ offense,” explained Buffalo coach Leo Richardson. “Our guards are supposed to penetrate all the way if they can, if not, they’re supposed to slough it off.” Guard Donald Scott, the smallest player on the court, had the hall. He dribbled between two Panther defenders, down the lane and lofted the ball over the defense and into the basket. It was Scott’s only bucket of the night, gnd when Milwaukee was able to call timeout, there were only 17 seconds left. Cora P. Maloney courses This semester, Cora P.

Milwaukee guard Tim Cullen inbounded the ball to Larry Pikes. Pikes drove left, found a hole in the Buffalo defense, and scored, tying the game with two seconds left. Jojmson’s hurried shot at the buzzer bounced off the rim, sending the game into overtime. A string of Buffalo freethrows and a bank shot by Pellom at the start of the extra period put the Bulls up by six, but then Gerald Hartnett retaliated for Milwaukee with a long jumpshot and two freethrows, and Malcolm Dotson hit a freethrow, pulling Milwaukee within one. Then Jammer’s sweeping hookshot put Milwaukee on top once again. practice.” The reason for this improvement, Richardson said, was that the team is finally learning to together. After injuries early in the year caii ed Richardson to revamp his lineup, the team displac'd ! some inconsistency from half to half. Another factor in the win was Buffalo’s offerse. Milwaukee had scouted Buffalo when the Bulls played Syracuse Monday night, so Richardsonchanged to the “passing game” offense, and the “open offense.” “They |Milwaukee] hadn’t seen it last night," Richardson said. “They looked like they didn’t know what they were doing.” In addition to the buckets at the end of regulation and overtime, the new offenses helped throughout the game. “Both guards got a little better shots than they had been getting because they were abl? to penetrate and get open shots,” Johnson said. Johnson finished with sixteerf points. Cooper had ten before getting injured, and the guards were able to feed Vernell Washington and Pellom for many of their 13 and 18 points, respectively. Are the Bulls on the upswing? Only time will tell. Tomorrow night at the Aud. Buffalo will face a struggling Fairfield team, in the first game of a doubleheader (beginning at 6:30).

The Panthers dribbled upcourt, and Hartnett, their sharpshooting guard, took a fifteen foot jumper from the left corner. It bounced high, and Jammer rebounded, but was off balance, and his shot, which could have won the game, was wild, at the buzzer. Richardson was pleased with the team’s performance, noting that it was the first time yll season that Buffalo had played two good halves of basketball in the same game. “We had a bad thirty seconds here, and a bad minute there, but this was the first time we played a good forty minutes,” Richardson said. “We did exactly what we did in < Acceptable waivers for Spring must be filed with the Student Health Office, Michael Hall, on Tuesday, Feb. 1, 1977 or Wednesday, Feb. 2, 1977 from 9:00 12 A.M.; 1 P.M. to 8 P.M.; or if mailed, reach the Student Healtl ice by Wednesday, Feb. 2 — NOTE Acceptable waivers are only for students who are registered for twelve (or more) credit hours during the Spring, 1977 semester and who were not registered for twelve (or more) credit hours during the Fall, 1976 semester.

New World Orchestra ... \<i It No, J itamih**. DM 5 Sub Board funds not available for ‘NWO’ The publication in the near future of another issue of New World a cooperatively run alternative newspaper, now appears Orchestra, unlikely. After reviewing the expenditures and revenues of Sub Board, a corporation controlled by members of the six student governments. Treasurer Art brdonde determined that the necessary $1000 is not available for one iflaie of New World Orchestra. In seeking funding from Sub Board this year, the paper’s representatives had proposed a budget allowing for four issues to be published this semester, beginning in January. When it appears that efforts to obtain approval for funding of four issues would fail. Sub Board Graduate Student representative Mitch Zoler moved that an experiemenlal issue be tentatively approved. The board of directors of Sub Board voted tentatively last December to fund a single, experimental issue of the newspaper on the condition that the required funds were available. Lalonde’s memo to AVie World Orchestra spokesmen Richard Bronson and Harold Meyrowitz said that although there is still a small amount of discretionary funds available, “there is not enough to cover all requests.” CAC budget cuts "My decision was not reached lightly,” Lalonde’s memo continued, "I spent six hours Wednesday determining Sub Board's financial position. However, if you still wish the funding. I suggest you approach the Board lor a more substantive position.” AVte World Orchestra began in 1975 and continued publishing last year. It had been funded through the Community Action Corps (CAC) but cuts in CAC’s budget ruled out support for New World Orchestra for another year. The paper's format included long, personal feature stories, poetry, radical politics, and a wide assortment of columns and opinion pieces. "The collective 1 AVic World Orchestra I has always been a rather personal venture for all involved.” said Bronson. "We have played the game, and the game failed us, I personally am rather tired of fighting and have O.D.ed on three-hour meetings." Budget Carey proposes TAP cuts by $41 million by Karen Bjornland Special h> The SpecI rum Governor Hugh Carey's 1077-1078 budget has cut the proposed (1AP) by S4I Plan Tuition Assistance dollars. Twenty-seven and a halt million million dollars or more than 67 percent of the cuts are lor awards granted to students in SDNV and CUNY and 27.5 percent or I 1 million to private college students. The budget proposes that when tuition is less than the maximum TAP entitlement, lower division (freshman and sophomore) awards will be reduced by SI00. The cuts apply only to public university students, those whose tuition is less than the S I 500 (SASH) maximum award Carey proposed that student income received from u Basic Opportunity Grant. Social Security or Veterans Benefits he r considered as net taxable income tor TAP award purposes. He also reduced the HOP program funds by a half million dollars.

HLSC claims to be beating the backlog, with all but 45.060 of the 425.000 applications submitted before December I already processed, baleen Dickinson. DI SC announced that this move fulfilled last December's public commitment to reduce the backlog to 50.000 applicants by January I. To prevent future TAP backlogs, there are several plans to revamp the program. The procedure for determining financial emancipation has been changed, omitting notarization of the parental signature. In some cases, the separate form for emancipation has been deemed unnecessary where parental income indicates maximum award The Senate Higher education Committee tackled the TAP problem with a p u b I i c a n n ou n c e me n I o f President, recommendations by chairman Ronald B Si afford. Recommendations include: allowing public and private universities to receive advances to up to 75 percent of awards projected for enrolled students permitting financial aid offices at institutions to approve applications before they go to HI;SC, simplification of the application by student representatives and financial aid officials, plus better use ot computers and improved communications between HESC and other agencies and institutions Finally. SUNY has recommended that students who have not yet received awards or award notifications should continue to receive tuition deferrals �Mini-courses will be offered off campus The State University aUBuffalo’s Office for Urban Extension will offer “mini-courses” this sjfing on the black family, technical writing, and two other topics at the Ellicott Community Action Organization Center, 608 William Street, Buffalo. Neighborhood “mini-courses” are designed for persons with jobs or families as well as others who find it difficult to attend class on campus. Millard Fillmore College awards one undergraduate credit for each course successfully completed, but enrollment is not limited to students attending UB’s evening division. The four courses scheduled at the Ellicott CAO will meet in three-hour sessions on Saturdays in February and March.

Both will end on March 19. Tenure Professors find freedom lost in pursuit ofknowledge had been published by Daniel W. Lindley in Japanese rather than in English. Special to The Spectrum Cherished UC Davis students staged a sit-in there in May, 1975 to protest what they termed “the racist and chauvinistic” system. Minority and women’s groups maintain that tenure discriminates against affirmative action; the process, which can often take up to seven years, does not allow them adequate representation on the permanent staff, they contend. And reductions in enrollment and funding often make them the first to be laid off. In the 60’s, some faculty members who protested against the war in Vietnam were refused tenure. Today, those opposing administration policy or the feelings of the faculty review board may be asked not to return. Law suits promulgated against universities by professors who have been denied tenure are not uncommon, and are often based on charges of racism and sexism. • Despite all its disadvantages, however, tenure’s greatest strength may be that those who have it wish to keep it, and those who do not have it hope to get it. Robert Nisbet, writing in the journal Change in Higher Education observes that “there is . . only one honest justification of tenure. It is there. It has been there a long time. Tenure, not freedom, is academic man’s most cherished idol.” (CPS) Tenure’s strongest opponents ironically have injected new life into the long-standing process which 95 percent of American universities use for selecting permanent professors from the ranks of the untenured. In most cases, once tenure has been attained, a faculty member’s position at a university is guaranteed for life except in cases of flagrant violations of existing school codes. Backers of the system emphasize that its greatest benefit is that it ensures tenured faculty, shielded by nearly Growth experience On March 26, a course on “Community Board Systems” will begin impervious job security, greater academic freedom in their pursuit of knowledge. its series of Saturday morning sessions and another, on “Technical The boosters, however, tend to ignore the fact Writing for Mental Health Workers,” will hold its first class that that the system cap result in a loss of academic and, afternoon.

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

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

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

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

Walter Simpson Distortion and bias I To the l:\lilor I have recently been impressed with The Spednun's coverage of the highly sensitive issue of the assault of SA Hxecutive Vice President Steve Spiegel by officers of the BSU and Third World Vets. Unfortunately, Bernice Sullivan departed from this tone of objectivity and moderation which The Spectrum had been adopting in its previous news articles. Instead, Ms. Sullivan, through none too subtle shadings, to use her article attempted for commentary purposes under the guise of mere reporting. Ms. Sullivan feels it is important to point out the races of the deliberating body, although that standard was dropped years ago from news reporting. She goes on to say that, “Speigel himself indicated that (he) kicked and engaged in fisticuffs with Lott.” She might instead have said that he tried to defend himself. The next time Ms. Sullivan finds herself in similar, unfortunate, circumstances, I suggest she just leave her hands limply at her sides and see what the outcome is. Finally, Ms. Sullivan chose bits and pieces of testimony in an attempt to build -a case of vindication. She might instead have chosen to quote one of the defense witnesses who had no problem with the beating occurring, but felt that it was justifiable under “the law of the ghetto.” Fortunately, someone else was assigned to write the editorial. and a call to reason.” ”... Arthur ./. I.alonde. Jr Distortion and bias II Over the years 1 have seen biased, absurd coverage of stories in The Spectrum but Monday’s front page story a bout the expulsion of the students who took part in the beating of I xecutive Vice President Steve Spiegel won all prizes for being prejudicial. 7 he Spectrum writer, Bernice Sullivan, situation. I’m afraid I can’t work up much sympathy lor someone who hurt himself while heating on another person. I guess I'm heartless. Sullivan also points out that no one could determine who started the beating. It makes little sense to consider for a minute that Steve started a light. Me had no reason to start a fight and we have the statement from provoked the beating. What bull! Steve rightfully refused to sign the recpiest form for payment of Christmas decorations because of the long history of budgetary abuses in the BSD allocation. Because of this he was severely beaten. Sullivan acts outraged that Steve did not stand still and accept his beating.calmly. Sullivan writes in outraged tones of how Steve tried to defend himself.

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

Decorative Quilting Co. 448 East 183rd Street Bronx, New York 10458 Tel. (212)584-2216 Last week, the wrestling Bulls traveled to both Cleveland State and Binghamton in an attempt to beiter their team record. But after each meet, the Bulls came away with two entirely different views ot themselves as a team. First, against the Vikings of Cleveland State, the Buffalo squad was manhandled 30-5, but came back later in the week to overwhelm the Colonials of Binghamton, 30-9. Buffalo coach Ed Michael had a good explanation for the loss. “Cleveland State is conceivably the best team on our schedule,’’ he said. “They are one hell of a team.” Michael explained the tremendous difference between Buffalo and Cleveland State as “our inability to compete on their level. Cleveland State had too many big guns tor us and we had too many big guns for Binghamton." Michael is right in his observation concerning his team’s performance against both opponents. Against Cleveland State, Kirk Anderson was the only victorious Bull with Ray Pfiefer scoring a draw. In contrast, seven Brills were able to win their contests against Binghamton. They included Tony Oliver! (118). Ed Tyrrell (134). Anderson (1 58), Bot? Martineck (167). Dave Mitchell (177). Rich Bopp (190). and Tom Gravell (hwt.). Witli a dual meet record of 3-5, the Bulls will be taking on Locke Haven State College tonight at 8 p.m. in the Clark Gym. Michael rates this match “a toss'up." He added, “It should be tight. I hope our boys rise to the occasion.” But the odds are certainly not on the Bulls’ side. Going against Locke Haven, the Buffalo grapplers will be met by a team that boasts a dual meet record of 10-3-1. and lour top wrestlers who are having outstanding seasons. Locke Haven standouts include Tim McCalley and George Way who hold individual records ol 11-0-1. with Mike Moore and A1 Fricke with comparable records of 10-2. Although the season has been a turbulent one thus far. co-captain Anderson is having his best season as a Bull. Michael considers him "a fine athlete, and one who should do well in post-season tournaments. Anderson’s excellent dual meet record of 7-1 can only be overshadowed by his overall record ot 15-3. since he has competed against some of the top wrestlers in the country. In his most recent contest. Anderson won his dual meet match lor the West squad, in the New York Stale Last-West All-Star Meet at Syracuse University. Although Anderson won, the West squad and the other Buttalo wrestler entered, Ray Pfiefer. lost. THERE WILL BE AN ACADEMIC AFFAIRS TASK FORCE MEETING Thursday, January 27th at 4 pm in room 234 Norton. Members and anyone interested are urged to attend This week.s meeting will include: The opening of the A.A.T.F. office at Amherst Brief exposes by each club rep. concerning their club’s present and future activities. — — Future Task Force activities Replacement of Ron Carry, who has dropped out of the Senate SHU SEARCHING FOR THAT FOURTH COURSE?

Kirk Anderson continued to wrestle like a star last week. The Bulls' co-captain picked up the team's only win during a lopsided loss to Cleveland State, and then pinned Vince Pinque of Binghamton on Saturday to lead the Bulls tp victory. Anderson's record in dual meets is now 7-1, and counting tournaments, he is 15-3 for the season. Kirk Anderson is our Athlete-Of-The-Week. Buffalo teams face action over weekend On Saturday, the hockey Bulls picked up their fifth straight win, team women’s bowling second place in the R.l.T. invitational tournament, and the indoor track squad, opening its season, wound up losing to Fredonia at the Bubble the captured 70-21, The Buffalo skaters trounced Potsdam 10-1, as they raised their season’s record to 8-8. More importantly, they upped their Division II record to 7-3. (Only the Division II record is used to determine the playoff qualifiers.) Buffalo’s power-play was in high gear, as they picked up five power-play goals. Jack Kaminska also added a shorthanded goal with just seven seconds left in the game. Karl Koeppel, a defenseman, opened the scoring just I;02 into the game, and the Bulls were never headed. Buffalo goalie John Moore turned back 24 shots, while the Bulls fired 54 shots at the beleaguered Potsdam goalie. The hockey Bulls will once again take the ice this Saturday at Cortland, in another Division II Buffalo trounced contest. Cortland earlier in the season. Bowlers finish second The howlers, after a slow start, returned from the Christmas break with a strong performance in the R.l.T. invite. Their season’s record is now 28-6.

I he Buffalo keglers occupied fifth place after the first round, hut bowled their best game of the season in the final round to move into second place, behind Oswego. “The girls are concentrating more,” said Buffalo coach Jane Poland. “They’ve adjusted to the lanes.” The track meet marked the return of former Buffalo track star Fldred Stephens to Buffalo, only this time he was wearing a Fredonia uniform. Stephens, who had been virtually a one man team for the Bulls, transferred after track was demoted from varsity to club status. Bulls win once Stephens was the only athlete to pick up two wins, as he and captured the sixty three-hundred yard dashes. Buffalo was able to pick up a first place in only one event, the two-mile run, as cross-country runner Mike Fischer led Buftalo teammate John Ryerson across the finish line. Buffalo coach Walter C'.anU said that the team was facing several problems. First, Gant/. had only met some of the team members the day before at an organizational meeting. Another problem was that many of the team members had not worked out since the summer, and a third problem was that the team did not have any uniforms, so that the team members had to compete in their own gear.

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

Self destruction for energy - — Quebec Election stirs serious move to independence after the election, sought to play down the importance of the independance movement as an election issue, other officials by Brett Kline Feature Editor The stunning victory of Rene Levesque and the Parti Quebecois in the November 15 province of disagreed. “Quebec has taken a landmark step toward becoming the master Quebec elections has made the of its own affairs,” said Claude Morin, provincial Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs. “Why hide?” independence movement there a reality, political aggravating already tense relations between English and French potential J.evesque promised in many campaign speeches to call a popular referendum within two years to determine if the people of Quebec want the province to declare its independence from Canadians, and has assured that the following years will be the most crucial in the 110 year old Canadian history of the Federation. The Parti Quebecois (PQ) ran against the Conservative Party and the incumbent Liberals, by whom they were narrowly defeated in 1970 and 1973. Many Quebecers have blamed the Liberals for the economic stagnation and high unemployment rate which have beset the province, a trend of contributed thought which heavily to the victory of the PQ.

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

Mining for coal and uranium would turn the arid West upside down, destroying grazing and farming lands and uprooting thousands of communities. We would in effect be burning down our house to keep us warm. Cost to taxpayers If this “energy independence” plan is translated into dollars, the cost will be over $1 trillion for the alone. years next ten Three-quarters of that amount would be for electrification and the other quarter for synthetic fuels and the like. The drain on the capital markets will be enormous, making it difficult for industry to expand and use the available energy; the electric utilities would be chewing up their own customers. The recently released budget of ERDA (Energy Research and Development Administration) for the 1977 fiscal year reflects this policy. Research and development money goes predominantly into fission and fusion research, with only 8 percent of the budget remaining for solar, wind and geothermal energy sources and conservation. There is hope that the Carter administration will begin to change these national priorities. He has already labelled Project Independence, “a farce,” and has called for dramatic conservation measures. He has recognized that 50 percent of our overall energy is wasted. He believes that mandated vehicle and appliance efficiency mandatory standards, and in building improvements insulation, are required. Carter has also said that we must exploit the potential of solar energy in the construction of new homes and offices. Finally, he believes that dependence U.S. on nuclear power should be kept to the minimum necessary to meet our needs, with stricter safety standards to regulate its use.

Of course, the Swedes believe they can do better. Cars are already more efficient, with ’76 cars averaging 27 percent better mileage than ’74 cars. According to a Dow Chemical study, industry could generate half their own electrical needs, as a by-product of the production greater process, at much efficiency. This measure alone would obviate the need for 50 nuclear reactors and reduce transmission lines and losses. benefit large That’s a ofdecentralized energy sources. A discussion of alternate energy sources follows in the next two installments of this series: solar heating and cooling, windmills, alcohol production and conservation. Choice is political A choice between alternate energy sources and the nuclear route is also a political choice. One road is Project Independence, meaning increasing electrification and massive centralized generating massive stations, consuming amounts of capital, land and natural resources, coming from an alien, remote and unpredictable technology, run by a technical elite who have never heard of you. Decisions about who shall have how much energy at what price also becomes centralized. These highly sophisticated systems are less tolerant of disruptions, and require an increasing degree of conformity and discipline on the part of citizens. The political implications of increasing centralization of energy therefore border on enlightened fascism. The other choice is true energy independence The energy sources are decentralized, diverse, with energy source matching the scales and needs, coming from an understandable neighborhood technology, run by people you know. Much of the technology is is well-known. The system adaptable, diverse. needed commitment Major We are at the cross-roads in It’s a start, but we must do policy.

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

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

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

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

Angered Buffalonians Repeal city s occupancy tax In the most militant display of public anger since last summer’s county budget-cot meeting in the downtown library, more than 500 Buffalonians crowded Buffalo’s Common Council Chambers demanding repeal of the city’s occupancy tax. The tax was recently passed by the Council to provide funds for a million dollar debt left the city by the Municipal Housing Authority. Decreasing state aid is responsible for what will become an ever-widening yearly Housing Authority deficit. The meeting in City Hall was to be a session where Common Council members and Mayor Stanley Makowski would explain the reasons for the tax which varies between eight and twelve dollars per home, and to listen to citizen input. That input turned out to be ten minutes of catcalls and jeering at every point the mayor would attempt to speak. Makowski finally left the chambers, unable to communicate to the crowd beyond the question, “Is this the American way?” Ten of the fourteen Common Council members signed resolutions to repeal the unpopular measure, and on January 11, the Council voted unanimously to eliminate the tax with the end of this fiscal year. The Off-Campus Housing Office, located in 342 Norton Union, is currently open and providing limited services. Full service, which includes computer assistance in searching for housing, will begin in March. The office presently maintains a bulletin board (located in front of 342 Nortion) on which people offering or desiring housing can post ads. Ads may also be phoned in between 10 and 11 a.m. weekdays and between 4 and 5 p.m. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The bulletin board already contains requests and ads for houses, apartments, single rooms and roommates. Off-Campus Housing services will expand in March, when the Unfinished homework The Buffalo Board of Education plans to appeal annual rush for student housing usually begins. Assistance will be geared toward those seeking housing for thy next school year. Forms will be provided on which a student can indicate what type of housing he has in mind. The form is them submitted to the Office. Within two days the student receives a printout of up to ten houses or apartments matching the description. The student can then look up information concerning particular houses in the master housing file at the Office. This file is being assembled from information obtained by surveying current residents of student housing. The file will contain pertinent information such as general condition, size, distance from campus, rent and utility prices. Off-Campus Housing Director Heidi Lewish said that the Office may also offer a roommate finding service and expand it's scope to include houses with monthly leases, but only if the staff can resume its normal services by March. Lewis explained that the Office is getting off to a late start this year because Sub-Board did not appoint a director until October. The Off-Campus Housing Office is located at 342 Norton Hall and its phone number is 831-2109. an arbitration panel’s decision to award city teachers a nine percent wage increase, claiming inability to apy. The three-member panel mediated the Buffalo Teachers Federation (BTF) three-week strike in September, after months of fruitless bargaining. Original issues in the strike were that of pay, with 11 percent and ‘increments’ over two years as the, teachers’ final demand, and program cuts, where the BTF demanded the restoration of all cut curricula, and the job positions needed to teach them. According to arbitration panel briefs, its judgment was based on the Buffalo receipt of more than five million-dollars (approximately 11 percent deducted as a fine of an average teacher’s Salary) for the illegal September strike. Under the state’s Taylor Law, public employees are forbidden to strike, and penalized one day’s pay for each day on strike, claiming inability to pay. The three-member panel mediated the Buffalo In a related development, the New York State Court of Appeals upheld conviction of BTF President Thomas Pisa, held guilty of contempt in violating court orders not to strike.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The B 11s’ next meet is at year. “The team is jelling into a Brockport, and Sanford expects it fine team We’ll have a good to be a tight race. The Golden season,” he concluded. Eagles have a good team, but the Bulls have momentum going for them. “We’re looking for an Sanford very “a fine against good meet awfully Brockport, and I think we can win it,” said Sanford.

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

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

The Center for Policy Studies and the School of Management will be offering a Research Seminar sponsored by the Rand Visiting Professorship: URBAN ANALYSIS AND POLICY John Tepper Marlin, Executive Director of the Council on Municipal Performance (COMP) will serve as the Rand Visiting Professor in Urban Studies during the Spring semester. Integrating themes will include budget, citizen participation, and intergovernmental relations. The seminar is designed to acquaint students with the previous work and research methods of The Council on Municipal Performance, and to provide students with an opportunity to apply these methods in group research projects focused on specific aspects of the community environment and public services in the Buffalo Metropolitan area. The specific areas of study to be covered include: Education Air Pollution, Water Pollution, & Sanitation Police Services Transportation Services & Planning Housing & Community Development Health information regarding course registration data can be obtained from: Further with radio spots and television commercials that job opportunities, training, income, a retirement fund after 20 years and even travel. “Packaging is now necessary and the advantages must be real,” said one Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTO recruiter at the University of Minnesota recently. “The military must compete with civilian labor in the open market for manpower,” he added. And like all competition, there is a price to pay. The Army has budgeted $16 million a year for the last two years to cover the cost of a radio and television campaign aimed at the 12—24 set. At the same time, the Marine Corps reportedly spent $8 million in its annual search for a “few good men” (there was no mention of any women) according to the publication Advertising Age. This was slightly less than what was spent last year to advertise “Preparation H”! promise Not everyone buying But while the Arijiy is selling its goods, not everyong is buying. In fact, one radio station in Devner turned down an ad for the Army last year. It was discovered that there was actually a waiting list of recruits and that the ad would have been a waste of money. “It was the biggest contract in our history,” said the radio salesman.

An advertisement is marketed by the size of the audience it will reach. The price increases for each thousand who hear the commercial, a phenomenon known to the ad business as “cost per thousand.” Glynn says that the cost per thousand is roughly the same from coast to coast.

PIRGs provide representation for large blocks of students in 36 states as well as in Ontario, Canada. The groups lobby in the state legislatures, research regional environmental and transportation issues, battle fbr consumer rights, smooth tenant-landlord relations, print directories of reputable physicians, and issue comparisons of food prices in local food stores. Community response to their activities has been generally favorable. Predictably, though, there have been dissenters. Barely breathing Reports a spokeswomen for CALPIRG in- San Diego; “We compared food prices at various stores and named names. One store reacted by hiring a private investigative team to scrutinize us.” The upshot of the investigation was a charge by the store that the CALPIRG did not include quality among its criteria for selecting food markets. Though Gaylord Bourne sees “a definitely successful and increasing” number of PIRGs spreading across the nation, some branches seem barely to be breathing. At Southern Oregon State College, a student observer reports that “they’re very weak here in Ashland.” At the Unviersity of Oregon at Eugene, OSPIRG chairwomen Sharon Hill admits that her organization has “been in a coast this past year.” However, she believes that OSPIRG’s slide is partially due to the fact that numerous citizens’ groups are springing up around the state to take over the work that OSPIRG has started. The group has been eclipsed lately in the environmental field, though it was instrumental in halting construction of a nuclear power plant in Cape Kiwansa, Ore., and helped pass a bill which encouraged bottle recycling. OSPIRG is shifting its focus to civil rights, which includes alleged redlining in Portland, and health care. No quorum The. Minnesota Daily reports that MP1RG is having difficulty attracting its representatives to its meetings. “We have never had a quorum this year. I’ve never even seen five of the members,” the paper quotes One distraught member as saying. In Iowa, Kathy Carter, chairwoman of IPIRG, admits that her organization has had little if any effect on recent elections. However, she points to considerable success in preserving city parks and averting attempts by the Army Corps of Engineers at damming several nearby rivers and creeks. Her group’s greatest triumph, she continues, is that it has gained practical experience as well as the respect of the townspeople around her campus. “Once you’ve proven yourself at doing good in things that interest people,” she observes, “you build a good name.” IPIRG plans an anti-Army Corps of Engineers conference this March. The cost of PIRGs to the individual student runs from three to eight dollars per year, and supports the fu’l-time staff of lawyers, economists, and other professionals who give the groups a continuity in time that they would not have if they were run solely by students, who are prone to vacationing and graduating. PIRGs were envisioned by Nader as an answer to the dilemma that “power and wealth remain concentrated, and decisions continue to be made by the few.” D.C. manager Bourne thinks it is equally important that PIRGs are “great learning programs.” SENATE MEETING WEDNESDAY JANUARY 26 th 8 HAAS LOUNGE $ ig i 4:00 pm * Page four The Spectrum Friday, 21 January 1977 . .

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

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

The Spectrum . Friday, 21 January 1977 I Prodigal Sun �Patti Smith concert Punk rock in NYC for New Years Eve John Gale, Contributing Editor No doubt about it, punk rock (yeah, yeah, yeah) is the latest craze in the worm-ridden Apple. Fans (?) in droves rumored to be on the brink of hysteria, swarm like bees, to such honey-laced clubs as On the Rocks, Max's Kansas City, C.B.G.B.'s to hear bands with such missionary names as the Ramones, Talking Heads, Orchestra Luna, Blondie or Mink De Ville. Indeed, the punk rock experience is in a fervent stage and has gained a formidable reputation with most of the city's big banana rock critics, who have in turn passed it off as the last hope for band. Punk rock is on the verge of becoming the only pursued topic of conversation at Foxtrot staff parties. However, the Palladium show did more to provoke frustration that it did to bolster the sagging record sales of John Gale, or more thdn it did to make Tom Verlaine the next Patti Smith, who was the next Bruce Springsteen, who was the next Bob Dylan, who was the next Woody Guthrie, who was the first to get caught in the onslaught of hokum from hype country. Perhaps it was the power of the historic sight in which the stage was laid that caused the anxiety, the Palladium has a "Soon," "Elevation," "Marquee Moon," and a version of "Knocking On Heaven's Door," that gave Bob Dylan's song new colors and intimacies that blended the participating , audience into a giant undulating cranium. Of course, the grande finale was their underground classic (yes Virginia, there is an underground), Little Johnny Jewel, a self-marketed single, still available on the ORK label. Now Little Johnny Jewel He's so coo / He had no decisions Just trying to tell a vision.

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

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

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

Stay healthy Putting the life of a rock star in a most accurate perspective. Hall philosophizes, "I've become a success junky. I decided to set aside the next three years to do nothing but what I'm doing, now that we've got our foot in the door. It's often hard to cultivate a state of reality from a dream-like existence. I never want to run my life for rock and roll, the more success, the less it means. I'm hoping to come out of all this with a healthy mind and body, able to bring it home and become a full person again. There's only a certain amount of time you can be a proficient songwriter, proficient not active. You can always write songs, but you can't always be a star. When I'm a wrinkled old man I know I'll still need my natural medium of expression, composing, but I'll want to have lived a full emotional life." If things continue to go as well as they did in 1976, it should prove no problem.

Since the superstars of the early seventies like Led Zeppelin and Elton John are fading, watch for bands on the brink of larrje success to take their positions on the pop charts.

"We Wichita; began all you've playing in of it, heard —continued from page 8— ... haven't you?" Hope related how he and Ehart were in a band called Rain' previous to being in Kansas. "We used to play high schools and clubs and get things thrown at us for playing original material. It happened even when Kansas began. People want to hear copy music like the Stones. "Would you believe disco music has hit Kansas? I nearly threw up when —I hear "Disco Duck." Hope still becomes frightened at audience antics. "People get so excited they throw the wine flasks UURB FilmCommitte and bottles on the stage. This Buffalo crowd is pretty wild especially that guy in the first few rows who lit up that torch." (The idiot happened to be sitting directly in front of this reporter.) "We had to play with Kiss oncei I really don't like that kind of music."

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

The idea can be correlated to notes on a musical staff as the mood of the audience becomes the melody of the scale. Intricacies present in the notes of the Buffalo Philharmonic as a whole can be used as a messenger for understanding simpler musical expressions. Like rock. Like the music of Art Garfunkel. Garfunkel sang a few songs accompanied by the famous southern studio band The Music Shoals Sound Rhythm Section. In the title song for Garfunkel's last album.

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

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

Spectrum Staff Writer Although Santa Claus is not a at the registered student University of Buffalo, it is becoming evident that he is a Bull hockey fan. For Christmas this year, he gave the Buffalo skaters their big wins over Division II opponents (the division which Buffalo is in), including a 5-4 triumph over number three ranked Union College. The Bulls are now 6-3 in the division. St. Nick began his generous ways on January 8, when the Bulls clobbered the New England College Pilgrims 1 2-3 in Henniker, New Hampshire. Highlights of the game were Jack Kaminska’s four goals and center Rick Costello’s three tallies. The Buffalo skaters built a 4-2 lead in the first period, exploded for six more in the second, and added two more in the third. Leading scorer Ray “Toughie” Gruarin picked up two goals for the Bulls, giving him a season total of 29 points (7 goals, 22 a 5-4 The Bulls, who were outshot 41-33 on the night, went into the game’s final frame trailing by three, with Tony Scaringi’s goal being the only Buffalo tally. But inspired by ihe sensational veteran, John goaltending o( Moore, the Bulls roared back. For six minutes Buffalo was two men down, but Moore kept the Dutchmen off the board by repelling every drive sent ai him. by chunky Sparked the netminder’s stellar performance, the Buffalo offense then went to the work on Union cage. Although the Bulls were unable to score during their own lengthy two man advantage, they came back with four goals in rather rapid succession to stun Union. Hard working right winger Stu Campbell scored the winning goal for Buffalo at 16:20 of ths final frame. It was Campbell’s fifth tally of the season. Gruarin, and Costello had Kaminska, scored earlier in the period for the Bulls. When the Bulls took to the play road to on Saturday Hamilton College, it appeared that their Christmas joy might be over. The Continentals scored with only 53 seconds gone by and continued to swarm the Buffalo goal for the rest of the game, firing 45 shots at Moore, once again between the 4-1 third period deficit into by Larry Amoros assists). The holiday spirit followed the Bulls back to the Tonawanda Sports Center on the eleventh, College the Union when Dutchmen came to town. A more fitting gift than a victory could not be found, as the Bulls were keenly aware of the two defeats at the hands of the Dutchmen last season. In one of those losses, a 5-4 overtime defeat, a bench brawl erupted led by Union coach Ned Harkness, formerly of Cornell University and tjie Detroit Red Wings. With those games in mind the Bulls went shopping for a win, and found it when they turned a clearing pipes. But Moore must have been good all year long, because Santa kept looking out for him. The the stoned goalie Bulls’ Continentals, missing only one of the next 43 shots. Moore, recently named Athlete-of-the-Month sparkled throughout the contest, and held the fort while his teammates rallied to score on eight of their 34 shots. Kaminska scored the winner for the Bulls in the first period, his 14th of the year. The soft-spoken left wing added another one in the third period, bringing his team leading total to 15. Also noteworthy is the fact that the Buffalo power play cashed in twice, with defenseman Carl Koeppel scoring in the first period, and blueline partner Tony ■ Vesona scoring in the second. three Coupled with the ■power-play goals the Bulls scored against Union, it appears that the. unit is play power Bulls functioning in perfect fashion. ' The Bulls play their next four games on the road, including a rematch with Union, who up until now, had never lost a Division II contest.

The number in the student directory is incorrect. It hasn't been a good month for goaltender Johnny Moore. It has been a great month in the middle of an outstanding year. His 5.02 goals against average is quite misleading, since it includes games against national powers, but again Division II teanris (Buffalo's division), Moore has been outstanding. He stopped 37 shots while helping the Bulls defeat Union 5—4, the first time Union had ever lost a Division II regular season game. He also stopped 43 shots while leading Buffalo past Hamilton last week. According to one observer, Moore has looked like a NHL goalie, and he is The Spectrum's Athlete of the Week.

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

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

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

In response to The the investigation, Spectrum 's Department held its first required auction in 23 years Saturday to installment get rid of the many stereos, bicycles, and appliances that have accumulated. by Marty Schwartz Contributing Editor Outgoing County Erie Undersheriff Michael D’Amico played an active role in the County Legislature’s abolishment of seven top positions within the Sheriff’s Department for next year, including six Captains and one Inspectors post, according to Legislator Raymond County Gallagher (D., Lak.). Gallagher, chainuan of the Safety Public Legislature’s Committee, told The Spectrurh that in an attempt to cut 50 budget lines from the Department designated by County Executive Edward Regan for 1977, the to Sheriff was submit recommendations as to what jobs would either be vacant or could be cut.

Deputies worried Individuals close to the new Sheriff say that Amico has resisted any cooperative effort to help Braun take over, and has made the transition extremely difficult. Braun told newsmen that he sent Amico a letter three weeks ago requesting his help, but it wasn’t until a few days ago that Amico responded, and volunteered his services. Informed sources within the Sheriff’s Department say that many of the deputies appointed by Sheriff Amico over the past “extremely are over their futures” when Braun takes office. Much of the concern is due to controversy over which individuals are “frozen in” under the Civil Service law.

The usage of individual criteria in determining hourly wage rates for students in the work study program at this University has sparked the creation of a new wage scale. Wes Carter, Assistant Director of University Placement and Career Guidance, says he generally starts new students at $2.30 an hour, and gives those students with experience $2.50 an hour. He also distinguishes grad students and law students who receive a starting salary of $2.65 per hour, $.35 more than their undregrad counterparts. However, if a student is in dire financial Carter also need, considers personal expenses, such as rent and travel costs, in order to raise the wage. But, according to the College Work Study Manual, “The practice of paying student rates based wage exclusively on their year in school is permissable only under a given set of circumstances, namely that satisfactory performance of a job at a given level of skill is dependent upon that student’s level of academic advancement.” Supervisors recommended wages “1 assume the expenses of a law student are greater than an undergrad,” Carter explained. Yet, the manual disallows for this rationale. “It is not acceptable to base a student’s wage rate on his need or any other factor not basically related to his skills and abilities.” The manual “Varying wage also states enable rates institutions to pay students a wage commensurate with the skill required for a particular job and, in addition, offer promotional incentive to the student as he becomes more proficient on the job.” The 1970 guidelines which Carter does use to determine wages in the College Work Study Manual are unclear. For example: in one section of the manual, it states that students should get a raise for doing well on the job. Yet, another section of the code / The matter of obtaining raises questionable. also Five supervisors of various libraries (a major source of work for work-study students) were all under the mistaken impression that they could nor initiate raises, is while Carter said the raise process supervisor’s is largely up to the recommendation.

He further warned that subsequent construction projects would lead questioned about the fact that the supervisors were unaware of this, Carter responded, “1 have probably been remiss” in making sure supervisors are clear on all procedures, adding that he hopes to “firm up” relations with them. His resolution begins with a notice to be sent out on January 1, in which Carter will remind supervisors of their ability to recommend students for raises, and, in addition, announce a “new —continued on Annual SUNY tuition increase is predicted page 4— to more tuition hikes. Genrieh, Amherst lawyer, explained to the approximately fifty Council members in the Tiffin Room in Norton Hall the cost of debt service for construction at SUNY campuses have nearly doubled since the 1971-72 school year. In addition, interest rates which are now $112 million will rise to $170 million by 1979. Genrieh justified his cautious attitude by pointing out the prepondererice of empty student spaces in the SUNY system. He emphasized that student enrollment will continue (o drop below predicted levels. Present building plans presuppose an enrollment of 416.000 students by 1980. “However,” Genrieh said, “the Regents expects SUNY’s enrollments to continue to decline until it reaches 254,000 in 1984.” This could result in a 65% capacity of SUNY schools. �Affirmative GSEU urges action against proposed cuts with University administration ever since the Union filed with the NYS Public Employee Relations Board (PERB) for elections to legal union determine the of SUNYAB’s representative graduate employees.

The police originally demanded guns three years ago, citing robberies in the dormitories as the reason. A closed hearing was held three weeks ago concerning the use of guns, at which time students burst in and demanded open hearings. The Central Council of the Student Association (SA) then adopted a resolution calling for the open hearings, although a proposal specifically condemning guns on campus was not reached at that thne. One SA spokesman felt that students were generally against the arming of University Police. He added that SA would probably adopt a resolution after Christmas vacation, against the arming of University Police. Campus roundup Shortfall in the SA budget is predicted In the first Student Association (SA) Financial Assembly meeting of this fiscal year. Assembly members voted to place a ceiling on all club budget requests in of the 1977—78 preparation budget. Anticipating a decrease in mandatory student fee revenues. President Schwartz Steven an amendment that would allow clubs to request no more than 30 percent more than this year, and all clubs would have to justify their proposals. This would apply to clubs that receive over a $200 allocation, thus acknowledging growth the potential of newer, smaller clubs. SA Treasurer Steven Blumberg that SA might be predicted $21,000 in the red by August if the current budget is not trimmed some $40,000, which would leave a cash balance of $20,000. Forseeing the probable reduction in club allocations this year, an amendment was added that said “the Financial Assembly supports the authority of the treasurer, when necessary, to restrict the mandatory of SA spending student fees when revenue levels a*p not attained.” Its sponsor, member Arthur Assembly Lalonde, pointed out that the treasurer already has the power to freeze the budget; thus, the an simply was amendment expression of “good faith.” It was also announced that the Black Student Union (BSU) will be audited sometime next week. members assembly Black proposed ' • ' the immediately protested upcoming audit, asking why other clubs weren’t to be subject to the same scrutinization.

Sub Board Treasurer Art Lalonde is expected to report back to the Board this week on whether the funds exist. Meanwhile, members of New WOrld Orchestra began efforts to re-form the cooperative and to encourage participation by new and old members, even as the semester come to an end. They had originally proposed a budget allowing for four issues of New World Orchestra to be published next semester beginning h> January. A motion by Millard Fillmore College representative Judy Jones to table discussion of World New Orchestra was narrowly defeated.

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

When she approached her supervisor for a raise, she was told that Carter, at the Placement Office, was the person to see. “We don’t handle that,” she said. When the student went to see Carter, she learned that it was up to the supervisor to recommend raises.

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

Page five �7'< Announcing a new course: ‘Humane’ treatment sought and it was better to treat them in more enclosed surroundings. by Philip Mitchell Special to The Spectrum Editor's Note: This is the fourth and final installment in a series of articles dealing with drug abuse and the state programs created to treat and eliminate pervasive drug problems. In this article the author offers general criticisms of to the and solutions ineffectiveness of state efforts. Drug Abuse Control Commission (DACC) has been operating in New York State since early 1967 when it was ostensibly by formed then Governor Rockefeller to combat the rising The tide of drug abuse. At the program’s height, tY re were twelve operating facilities for drug abuse treatment, seven in or around New York City. In the past eighteen nine months, facilities have permaently closed and drastic budget cuts have severely limited the efficiency of the remaining three. Our tax money is wasted in keeping open such large DACC facilities as Masten Park (located in Buffalo), because most of the space is simply no longer used. Since spring 1975, the entire day care program in Masten Park (designed to provide an alternative for ex-addicts to-hanging out on the strets)-has closed, leaving half the facility unused. The day care program consisted of various shops, including arts and crafts, music and sewing, along with a and fully equipped gym weightlifting apparatus. There was also a pingpong table and pool room. The program provided free lunches for the families of ex-addicts unable to find work. The day care facilities were used extensively by many addicts, and were quite useful in providing a chance for once-addicted persons to expand their interests (as in the music shop) and constructively use their time. Humane alternatives Instead of examing the existing program there and trying to revise it (yhich would have required some change in ideals), the entire facility was abandoned. While DACC still believes in “forced rehabilitation,” many small rehab centers have opened, House in including Argosy Syracuse, New York City’s Project Return, and the Narcotic Guidance Council (NGC), all of which provide counselling and other services. Both Argosy House and Project treat addicts in an Return extensive program geared towards return to the community. These communities have therapeutic more been successful in rehabilitating addicts than the larger state program in which 88 percent of the addicts treated a returned for further treatment. Unfortunately NGC, which was federally funded through Erie County, closed due to budget cuts last August. A more humane philosophy in drug treatment centers is less geared towards incarceration for several reasons, most importantly because no treatment program can be effective without the addict’s desire for help. Rapport possible The newer community based capsule before going to bed, justifying it by saying alcohol is legal and that he needs something to make him sleep. With this childish mentality present, legal drug abuse is easily rationalized by a drug dependent society. Respite the rhetoric, the real reason DACC facilities lock up an addict is because society won’t accept an open door facility for drug treatment. The two open door DACC facilities were both closed, one only eighteen monthsafter it opened. The excuse given was that too many addicts were running away from the facility. Page six .

Prison is simply not a solution to drug abuse, it only creates more of a problem for those confined once they are paroled. As long as drug abuse is looked upon as a legal problem, drug users will continue to be criminals. Subsequently, drug users who are sent to prison in lieu of treatment will continue to present a problem to society.

The decisions to be made here are on prospective expressways, bus lines, and other forms of rapid transit and are indicative of a national controversy which involves business, government and environmental groups. The U.S. Department of Transportation announced in September the approval of a $269 million grant, to be supplemented by a $67 million New York State grant, for the development of a 6.4 mile light rail line to run mostly under Main Street between Memorial Auditorium and Beiley Avenue. The commuter railway’s construction will cost about $30,000 a yard and the line is expected to operate at an annual deficit of more than $1 million, to be paid by Erie County.

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

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

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

The panel included Bill Gaiter, Executive Director of BUILD; Bill Price, University District Evans, David Councilman; Executive Director of the*Housing Council of the Niagara Frontier; Frank Cerabone, Head of the Buffalo District Office for HUD; and George Wyatt, Head of the Buffalo Municipal Housing Authority. Master of the College of Urban Studies Lawrence Zimmerman moderated the discussion. The major issue discussed was the lack of leadership in determining housing policy at any governmental level. Frank Cerabone said that there is not Surveillance increasing.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Monday, 13 December 1976 FIND IT in The Student Directory - �Basketball Sportspaige 1 Howard U. defeats Bulls Howard University forward John Smith hit a 22-foot jump shot with just three seconds left to give the Bisons an 87-86 -victory over Buffalo at Clark Hall Thursday night. 'Buffalo is now 1-4, while Howard extended its record to 4-0. The Bulls were down by as many as sixteen points during the second half, as Howard, despite being in severe foul trouble, was hitting 59 percent of their shots, compared to just 33 percent for the Bulls. playing were too “We conservatively,” said Buffalo coach Leo Richardson. “We were on aggressive enough not defense.” Forward Jerald Glover had fourteen points at halftime for Howard, while guard Ellsworth Hart was able to penetrate quite often, socring on all five of his shots with a little left-handed hook shot that barely cleared the outstretched hands of Buffalo’s defenders. New ballgame Things were vastly different in the second half. Led by senior forward Eric Spence, Buffalo began to come back. “We did what we were supposed' to do in the second half,” Richardson noted. “It was like night and day ' we played- two different — games.” The Bulls began running the fast break, and the full court press began to stifle Howard’s offense. “That’s the way I’d like them to play for forty minutes.” However, the comeback was still very slow. With just 3:31 remaining, Howard still held a ten point lead. Spence tipped in a rebound to cut Howard’s lead to eight. Then, Howard went into a stall, but seconds later they turned the ball over to Buffalo. Spence came back with a five-foot bank shot, and then Larry Jones hit a jump shot from the freethrow line for Buffalo to cut the margin to four. Jones was also fouled on the play, but missed the bonus toss. After Gerald Gaskins hit a freethrow for Howard, George Cooper scored for Buffalo, giving Howard an 85-83 lead with 1:12 left. Gaskins stepped on the baseline while inbounding the ball, giving Buffalo a chance to tie the game. The Bulls took their time and set up a play. Cooper hit Spence with a pass along the left baseline, and Spence swished it through, to tie the game with forty seconds to go. Bulls back on top Mike Nettles then fouled Spence as the latter grabbed a rebound. Spence hit the first freethrow to give Buffalo its first lead since it had a 6-4 lead early in the game. Spence missed the second shot, but the rebound went out of bounds off a Howard player. Mf/Ail/ FOR DISCOUNTS OFFERED TO STUDENTS, FACULTY AND STAFF . THE STUDENT DIRECTORY All Buffalo had to do was hang on to the ball for eighteen seconds, but Howard had other plans. Jones was fouled by Smith, and missed the freethrow. Nettles came down with the rebound, and Bisons coach A.B. Williamson called for a timeout, with just nine seconds left. Howard’s inbounds pass went to Gaskins behind the midcourt line. He moved the ball up, and then fed Smith with a bounce pass. Smith’s slightly off-balance shot from the left side of the key swished through the net, giving Howard an 87-86 lead, with three seconds remaining. Richardson called time out, and set a play, but Sam Pellom’s inbounds pass went over Jones’ head, into the hands of a Howard by Paige Miller player freethrows which killed Buffalo. The same thing was in part responsible for Buffalo’s double overtime Iqss to Niagara. Ironically, the only game in which Buffalo shot well from the freethrow line 'was the one in which the Bulls lost by 34 points. For the second game in a row, Spence was the Bulls leading He points. scorer with 21 currently is shooting 63 percent from the floor, while averaging over 14 points and 8.8 rebounds per game. “He’s really doing the job for us,” said Richardson. “He camex out October 15 [the first day of practice] determined to play. Eric’s kept on working he didn’t stop.” Paige Miller Once again, it was — Hockey Bulls stomp Cortland in easy play by Larry Am oros Special to The Spectrum “Dragons are a myth,” proclaimed the small sign hanging from the balcony in the Tonanwanfia Sports Center last Saturday night, and the Buffalo ice hockey team took those words to heart, as they stomped the Cortland State Dragons, 10-4, in a Division II matchup. The Bulls took no time in showing the Dragons that they were oat to kill, and had built a 6-0 lead after just one period of play. Backed by Mike Dixon’s first period natural hat trick (three goals in succession), the Buffalo skaters swarmed all over Cortland and outshot them 22-7 in the opening frame. For Dixon the game was a good one, as he not only bagged three goals, ,but he also threw his weight around for the course of the game, and fired a whopping 16 shots at goal during the contest. “It freaked me out,” said Dixon of the hat trick afterwards; “1 work hard enough to get just one goal, but three in one period, that's unbelievable.” Bulls center Rick Costello added two goals of his own, along with two assists. Cos set up Buffalo’s first goal, a 70-foot Jack Kaminska slapshot that caught starting Cortland netminder Dan Raponi reading the signs instead of watching the play. Dragons breathe fire But things were not all rosy for the Bulls, as they seemingly lost some of their drive after building up the early lead, and played Cortland tp a standstill over the last two periods. Each team scored one goal in tjie second period and three in the third, a fact which had Buffalo coach Ed Wright somewhat concerned. “We played the last two periods evenly. We played real good in the first and then went into oiir shell. The reason for this remains to be seen; I think it's more ot a mental thing,” said Wright. “We played really good in the first period, and seemed kind of satisfied with that. We just did what we had to [after the first period],” said winning Buffalo goalie Johnny Moore. What the Bulls had to do was kill off an array of third period penalties called by the officials, in what previously had been a rather unblemished game. “I never saw such a bunch of BS in my life. I can’t believe some of the stuff they called,” complained Moore. “What they [the officials] let go in the first, they called in the third,” commented Wright. Who belongs? “Overall, I’m happy with the victory, but not satisfied. They (Cortland] played us even for two periods, and they don’t even belong on the ice with us,” added the Bulls’ mentor. One team that most certainly does belong on the ice with the Bulls is Bowling Green University, who visit Buffalo for a pair of games this weekend. Last year the Division I powerhouse demolished Buffalo 13-1, and 15-3 in a pair of games, that saw the Bulls outshot by a total of 148—35. So, can the Bulls realistically beat a team like Bowling Green with all factors being considered? Ed Wright says yes. Johnny Moore says he thinks so, and Mike Dixon doesn't really care to think about it. "Certainly we can beat Bowling green. If we can pressure their defense for three periods there’s no doubt that wc can." said Wright. We could give a pro team trouble if we play three solid periods of hockey, not a half period here, and a half there. In the past we've had good periods against Bowling Green, but we can’t afford to make mistakes and be burned by them.” “I do not see why, if we play three solid periods, we can’t be satisfied with fhe effort we put out,” laughed Moore, sidestepping the issue. “Really though, there’s no reason why we can’t beat them.” Dixon’s feelings can be put into perspective very quickly, as he said: “This is one game I’m Just not looking forward to playing.” Sports Editor When someone not, connected with spo;ts thinks of the life of a modern athlete, he thinks of glamour, screaming crowds and travelling. Having recently travelled with Buffalo’s basketball team, I can personally tell you, it’s all true. There is nothing as glamorous as getting up at 5:30 in the morning to go to Worcester, Massachusetts, to play Holy Cross unless it’s getting the next morning to travel back to Buffalo. Think of it the up at sun wasn’t up yet, the temperature was a toasty fifteen degrees, and 1 was on my way to Worcester. The team had an hour between flights at LaGuardia Airport, and Sam Pellom, the team’s center and the nation’s leading rebounder last year, decided to discuss some business with me. You see, I was not only a reporter, but also the team's statistician; Pellom and 1 already had reached an agreement regarding blocked shots, whereby if he felt that 1 might not have seen him block a shot, he-was to let me know as he passed the scorers table on his way downcourt. (Coach Leo Richardson later vetoed this arrangement.) — Another agreement “Paige,” Sam said, “are you going to keep track of rebounds tonight?” “Yes, I am.” “Well, since tonight’s game is on national television, 1 figure I should .get twenty rebounds.” “Now, wait a minute, Sam. Tonight’s game is only on regional television. That’s only worth seventeen rebounds.” “No, TV is TV. 1 still gotta get my twenty.” “Okay, Sam. So I have to watch your rebounds, George (Cooper] wants me to watch his assists. Is there anyone else 1 should watch?” “Yeah! You gotta watch all five guys out there.” “Oh. Is that how it works?” “Do you want to borrow my glasses?” Our flight from LaGuardia to Worcester was short and pleasant. 1 can’t tell you what a thrill it was to approach the Worcester airport. My first reaction was, “Why are we landing at this farm?” To be honest, the Greyhound station in Syracuse looks as much like an airport as the Worcester airport does. Lunchtime humor The team settled into their hotel, and then went down to lunch. By this time, 1 had realized that being a reporter, I was an outsider, and would probably be the brunt of many jokes. (In the absence of a reporter, the team usually picks on the trainer, Paul Schwartz. He tells the story of how The Spectrum once left his last name out of an article by accident, and for the rest of the season, the soccer team referred to him as The Spectrum mistakenly did “Paul of Tonawanda”) I also realized that I was one of two white people on the trip (Schwartz was the other), and as Leo Richardson entered the room where we were to have lunch, he said to me, “It’s nice to have some white boys along. They really brighten up the room.” We sat down to a lunch of chitlins and black-eyed peas, while the jokes continued. Larry we all look alike, you Jones called Schwartz and myself “twins" know. “Now you know what discrimination is all about,” said Ed Johnson. Then there was the game. Since a full report of the game appeared in Friday’s The Spectrum, 1 won’t comment further on the game itself. However, the atmosphere at the game was something I hadn’t seen in a long time. Here were 3,800 screaming people and they wouldn’t stop screaming even when their team was up by forty points. — - - Traditional goodies Then there were all the traditional trappings which make college basketball an event. There were thirteen pretty cheerleaders who did their best to keep the crowd cheering, there was a band (a little off key, but so what?) and there was a “mascot” a fellow dressed up like Santa Claus who put the hex on Buffalo during time outs. This was college basketball the way it was supposed to be. And drat it all. I couldn't enjoy it because 1 was on the wrong side. The crowd even gave Pellom a nice hand when he fouled out. It's been a long time since I’ve seen a crowd with that much class. After the game, both Richardson and Pellom were upset that I had given Pellom only two blocked shots. “I can’t win,” I sighed to myself, and let it go at that. The team got to sleep after midnight, and when the wake-up call came at 5 the next morning, you could hear the expletives echoing throughout the hotel. However, we made it to the Worcester airport in plenty of time for our flight, only to find that the flight had been caneelled due to thick fog. It seems that the schlamiel who designed the Worcester airport put it on the top of the biggest hill in the area, to be nearer to the planes, I guess. Anyway, the top of the hill was shrouded in mist, while the rest of the area was clear. We had to take a seventy-five minute bus ride to Boston (pronounced Bahhhhston), and finally returned to Buffalo. It was an interesting (and glamorous) trip, and I can honestly say that 1 was glad to have gone along.

At the Reichert Chairman Jonathan announced that due to “deep divisions” among the faculty and a amount of large floating “misinformation around,” ahy definite action would be temporarily postponed, later adding that an emergency likely would most meeting convene'during finals week. The course load issue was raised again this past summer when Bruce Vice-Chancellor a memo Hearing issued formalizing the measure of a semester credit hour as the Carnegie Unit, which calls for the satisfactory completion of one 50-minute session of classroom 15 instruction per week for weeks, with several categories of Psychology Professor Murray Levine said the role of the Faculty in this matter was unclear. He felt that some faculty memebrs believe academic policy planning rests with the faculty, while the responsiblity of enforcement lies with the administration. Bunn responded, stressing he would not automatically accept the advice of the faculty without qualification. Levine snapped back, asking Bunn why there have been no proposals from the administration to the yet. as Reichert faculty intervened. , assuring Levine that the Academic Vice President has worked well with the Faculty Senate on this matter. Contract violations? When the University switched to the four-course load the faculty had the ‘‘idealistic notion" that by reducing the number of preperaions from five to four, students would delve more deeply into the subject matter and would be able to concentrate their efforts on a more specific area of exception. study, explained Fnglish professor Credit hours are a major factor in determining funding for the individual SUNY school. A school that uses a four credit hour system could potentially be more full time attributed equivalents (a measure of the student credit hour ratio) than a three credit hour school and therefore could be appropriated more money. Tom Connolly, chairman of the Faculty Senate in l%d. If the University opts to remain with the load and subsequently increases the number- of contact hours in compliance with official SUNY policy, the teaching load of the average faculty member will also be heightened, raising the matter of contract violations of !Social Levy Kenneth Sciences suggested that an extra contact hour might be avoided particularly in the Social Sciences, by assigning a greater number of term papers or projects in each course. Political Science professor Marylyn Moskin suggested that research projects would justify an additional credit for a three contact hour course. SUNY at Binghamton, the only Mechanical difficulty Vice Executive Assistant President Charles Fogel said there is an Inflation in the number of full-time this equivalents on campus, although it is less than half of what it was in 1960. immediately after the change to the four-course load. As a result, he explained, this University has of the courses had enough out of classroom work to allow for retntion. while others inspired enough learning to justify the present situation. Resignation deadline change The study indicated that only about four percent of their present course list cannot be justified. Bunn said. It was his understanding, he said, that the Acting SUNY Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs has accepted this proposal and passed it along to the Division of the Budget (DOB), He did not know DOB's response to the proposal. The report of the that, beginning next September, the lust day for a student to resign from a course (and receive a grade of R) be moved from two weeks before the end of the semester to the end of the fourth full week of classes. I leutcd discussion over this section of the report followed. Acting Dean of Undergraduate Studies Walter, Kun/. explained that "accountability" is the real rationale behind the move: that is. the R should not be able to be substituted for an P grade. He further explained that with the new system of pre-registraion. there are only about 300 students left with serious registration problems by the end of the fourth week of the semester. Kazarinoff felt that a “serious student" should be able to make an intelligent decision as to “whyt course he can pass” within four weeks.

Sound and flexible We believe we have identified a sound and flexible course of action that will stave off externally imposed mandates for change.

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

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

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

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

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

Friday, 10 December 1976 Student Brigade �—Fliss The Blood Knot': fine production of an important play that delves into current problems by Bill Maraschiello Arts Editor The blood knot . . . the bond between brothers.' Two brothers: both born of the same mother, but Morris' father was white, Zachariah's black. Their home is South Africa the home of playwright Athell Fugard, author of The Blood Knot, the UB Theatre Department's current production' at the Pfeifer (Courtyard) Theatre on Lafayette and Hoyt. The circle of time has brought Fugard's play closer to reality now than when it was written, fifteen years ago. But the racial conflict that has erupted in Rhodesia is the latest blooming of a thorny bush, and Fugard has unearthed its roots. His play is a work of true beauty and compelling power, where both qualities blend and strengthened each other. It manages to deal with the question of race while avoiding the pat cliches of black and white rhetoric and character. It does so by reducing what is basically a human problem, and an intimate one, back to aa intimate, human scale. — More than skin deep The conflict between Zack (Edward Smith) and Morris (Saul Elkin) passes beyond the superficiality of color an arbitrary point, in a way, since both are actually black in South Africa's eyes. Morris is soul, a gentle dreamer in hiding from the harshness of the world, in search of beauty. Zack is body, the gritty bedrock of the needs, desires, and instincts of the human animal. Their opposing natures are colored by their passage through their culture: they gradually realize that their society has locked them into hopeless lives because of their blackness. Their frustration releases itself in a series of "games," every more savage, with the lighter-skinned Morris playing the white and Zack the black. they But aren's simply replaying the white-oppressor/black-rebel charade. Neither Zack nor Morris is a complete being, and it's largely this that brings them together. Zack envies Morris's purity, and Morris envies Zack's strength, and they — — rp D? jfllft/; f!% V; f \ : fl reveal, with growing clarity, how bitter a Ibnging they share. The bitterness cannot be hidden, but there is also much love and sharing passing between the two; they have the common knowledge of each other's lives that brothers have, and it serves them both as support and weapon. Family ties Fugard's great achievement is in displaying the compassion that he feels for these men alongside his anger at the injustice that fetters them Zack knows "injustice" only as "a word that feels all cramped in the month," and Fugard makes our mouths feel cramped, as well. He is a naive poet in the best sense, writing in simple, strong images sex as "two donkeys in a road full of stones;" Zack as — — "black as the twelve strokes of midnight" that catch the mind, and with humanity that grips the heart. Fugard makes us see that we are all brothers, and the blood knot binds us all. As much.love and dedication as Fugard brought to hjs writing, Smith and Elkin bring to their performances. The production's director as well, Smith has tremendous stores of sheer power, as well as a great deal of charm, both of which are essential to a fully realized portrait of Zack. Elkin's performance as Morris is the best he's given at the University as an actor, and I think it's because he did something very courageous he didn't distance himself from the character. His sympathy and involvement with Morrie are total; he has shared with him much of his own life. The stage presence and skill that Smith and Elkin share are there,, of course, but they've reached within themselves to fill in the technique. The Blood Knot is a splendid production of an important play; the fifteen or so people who saw Sunday's performance should have had much more company.

The movie dove into a sixties' eclectic combining Beatle song with socio-political flashbacks to the Beatles' era. production God, how times have changed. People who are here to view the Beatles' college are no more than fourteen years of age on the average.. The crowd is lethargic: they see the production as a piece of history rather than experience that which was once (kmmW'W of faint, discreet images in their burgeoning minds series “Help! I need somebody./Help! not just anybody There are no ecstatic screams when the Beatles perform this song on film. One lone woman, a few years older than I, claps along with the song. Her response is out of place, a rhythmic sound which only the past remembers as relevant; others in the present are embarrassed by the reckless joy she conveys. Today she is tired. The past becomes the reality of todya. We are consoled somehow. The embarrassment fades to tolerance. The recollection is clear: It's summer in Batavia, New York. "Help!" has been released.

The kids are still unmoved. too much Maybe the audience's response is not one of apathy, but of inability to consume such fast-moving technology. Seeing everything is impossible. Sight can focus securely on only one image at a time. It is probably the dominant center image of the Beatles performances which people gaze on. And any Beatles fan has seen these performances before. So one needs to see Away With Words of the action are various events of American culture in the sixties. At times, the screen's center shows surreal animation almost Daliesque in quality. The action gives way to pictorial stories, or other metaphors for Beatles' songs. "Eleanor Rigby" is played and 'all the lonely people' are visualized in photographs of old people, wrinkled with age, alone in the world's — space Beatlemania. amateurish, with film sequences which are expertly put together, but technically overdone. The images pass too quickly, like a dream. Human senses can only take so much bombardment. Past the point of acceptance are violence and pain. Precious moments cannot be savored at this pace, they can only be glimpsed with slight recognition. Feelings are not allowed to take hold in such a short time. The photography is well done, but often particularly not and stereotyped innovative. Although they are by no means banal, the images are typical 'and almost about four times before most of the images sink in.

Peckinpah's 1975 film, with James Caan leading a group of governmental mercenaries, was received as a mixed success, but one whose mixture is still a fascinating one.

They fall parallel to the images of despair contrived for the -sake of the novel above: the Fast on the heels of his August non-book of hon-poems (Loading Mercury With a Pitchfork) Richard Brautigan now presents an expectant reading public with a second embarrassing failure, this time in prose. Sombrero Fallout: A Japanese Novel simply fails to measure up to expectations Brautigan set for the reader with his three previous long prose works. All of those were, in part, novel-length parodic explorations of familiar genres; ( The romance historical Abortion), science fiction, the gothic, and the western ( Hawkline Monster), mystery ficfion and light pornography ( Willard and His Bowling Trophies). random violence (a small town gone mad); or lost love.

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

For no further involving reason the hat falls practically at the feet of the town's mayor, his ambitious and an cousin, Prodigal Sun to have become 'Why not anything? For a long time after his discovery and years of publishing calculated to make him the dean of West Coast Brautigan writers, Richard managed against all odds to preserve and develop his fanciful skills.

"Richard Paintings and Diebenkorn: Drawings 1943—1976, is regarded as the most comprehensive show of Diebenkorn's work. The ixhibit has brought nationafittention to the Albright-Knox which initiated it, and Will travel :o major museums, including the i/hitney in New York. relatively Diebenkorn is nknown in the East; he is a ialifornia artist who never sought the into often elusion jureaucratic heirarchy of the New That his fork ' art scene. Prospective spans some of the lost turbulent ' years of the istory of modern art, indicates lat his'own personal growth and ivelopment years. This development is excellently at the Albright, enabling viewer to trace the he ichievement of Diebenkorn from iis beginnings, as a twenty year ild art student, to the matured md experienced creator of the the stabilized with lore lesome Qcean Park series. In the ;arI ifer period, we are aware of omething special. Diebenkorn's exude some rare itill fifes jerceptions which become more stabilized with the progression. Awkward stances These still Tffes are special because of the particular lighting and angles from which they were created. In "Cigarette Butts" we see a drawing of a desk top covered with things one puts on a desk. What causes the viewer to stop is the perspective of the piece. It is an aerial view of a of bright color, who looks only at the cup under her chin, is a sunrise scene to relate to desk, which is disconcerting when such a work is suspended vertically. Similarly, Diebenkorn's figure drawings reflect' this intentional desire Logical self-discovery Diebenkorn's ability to put on canvas the interaction between awkward stances. These drawings are rarely done at eye level; Diebenko.rn chooses to draw from other angles which more fully express those postures of his models representing the awkyvard nature of , by Lester Burg the to capture human figure, composition, and color and lighting source is remarkable. This is especially clear in a painting with no figure, "Interior with View of the Ocean.” Diebenkorn ability demonstrates his to the two light effectively pattern sources here in harmony with the interior, whose simplicity allows the power of the light to be fully body, which he captures with clarity. is immensely Color an important aspect of Diebenkorn's paintings. In "No. 3" we are faced with a loose harmony of gold, red, blue, white, lavender, brown and black shapes which create a composition p I easing of considerable In potential. "Cityscape," color is used to create £n almost humorous effect. The predominant element here is a long' gray "roof top looking freeway" which intersects at the top with another gray band. To the right are bright and dark greens, orange, and blue colors portray to a which ■ seem California landscape. The colors are artificial looking, and contrast to the left side of the painting in which muted darker shades take on the shape of a city scene of clustered buildings. The style is Diebenkorn's, Sunrise scene Diebenkorn continues this mix style experiential and of interpretation, and uses it in his "Berkely" series.of the late fifties, of abstract a collection which expressionist works his continued clear represent vision of what he wishes to present. This series, a confusing jumble of shapes, relates the violence and great energy of a city area, whereas the "Albequerque" series is more subdued in color and less congested in composition The interiors which Diebenkorn painted in the late 50's and early 60's were the works I particularly admired. The Matisse inspired colors, and the skillfully worked out arrangements of the figures to their surroundings, create what has' been called a "pictorial dialectic between form and color". This is certainly true, a fact almost distracting to the viewer who must spend a longer than usual time in front of each canvas, in order to fully grasp Diebenkorn's ideas. In the earlier interiors of 1957 the focus seems to weigh more heavijy in the area of color and lighting For example, in "Woman in Window," we can't help but to focus and dwell upon the lighting which illuminates the woman's arm, hands, and the tassels of her scarf Which hang over the arm of the chair in which she is seated. In much the same way, in,"Woman realized. The second part of the exhibit features Diebenkorn's "Ocean Park," which begun in 1968, includes 95 paintings. In last Sunday's New York Times, John Russell called it "One of the most majestic pictorial achievements of By a Window," we see a the second half of this century." brightly profile, three-quarters largo The are paintings illuminated in deep contrast to averaging 80 inches in width, and the dark interior.

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

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

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

Monday 1 had the unpleasant experience of trying to return a record for a cash refund at-the Record Co-op. In early November I purchased a copy of Rory Gallagher's album Calling Card. I found it was scratched and returned it for the same album. The second copy was scratched in the same places: On returning this copy 1 asked for a cash refund* which I was told I could not have. Since I did not want a different album. I again took another copy of the same album from a cashier who in response to my question "and what should 1 do if this one is scratched" replied. "If this one is scratched also, we'll give you a cash refund. As you may have guessed, the third copy was scratched in the same place (indicating a factory defect). So. today, happy in the knowledge that I could finally gel a cash refund and stop running to the Co-op every week. I tried to return the album for a cash refund. Another cashier told me politely but firmly that the Co-op does not give cash refunds. When I explained the promise made to me about a cash refund by the first cashier, he found her and explained my problem to her. She denied ever having said any such thing. When I insisted she had indeed spoke of a cash refund she got indignant and told me I was "lucky" to be offered a credit slip which 1 didn't -want. She then told me. “It you don’t like it. go to Cavages." Such comments and discourtesy I feel are unbecoming of an employee ot the student body. Hopefully next semester some of the help at the Co-op will be replaced by someone a little more mature and a great deal more honest.

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

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

Neither team needs this game but it behooves the bag to pick Fran Tarkenton this week before he chokes next week in the playoffs. Pittsburgh 31, Houston 13 (Saturday). Pitt is up for their annual clinching affair. Franco Harris will be so ready he might do it himself. Baltimore 37, Buffalo 17. Fven if O.J. does have a spectacular game the C olts are not going to let him score that much. Jim Ringo finishes his first season as a coach without blemishing the wip column. Cincinnati 28, Jets 3. The Bengals have two chances for the playoffs slim and none. The Jets have about the same chance against the Bengals in what hopefully could be Joe Namath’s last gaine. Cleveland 17, Kansas 13. Close and low scoring but the Browns, led by Brian Sipe. should grab this one for a 10 win season. Cleveland should win the (award for the comeback team of the.year. Chicago 20, Denver 14. Chicago’s young running back Walter Payton has been a surprise all year. This week, it will surprise no one when the end zone becomes Payton Place. Green Bay 21, Atlanta 13. For the second time this year the Bag feels the Pack is back. Sparse attendance could be blamed on the general level excitement generated by these two teams. New England 41, Tampa 6. New England won’t score 60 this week and the Bucs will get 6 this week simply because some of the Patriots are more charitable than the Bag himself. St. Louis 28, N.Y. Giants 13. St. Louis could need this one of the playoffs so Hart, Metcalf and everyone else will show up at the Meadowlands ready to play. Oakland 24. San Diego 10. The Chargers may be able to beat one Bay area team but not the other. The Raiders proved they earned their excellent record last Monday night. San Francisco 17, New Orleans 10. Yawn! San Fran traded away everything for this year’s record. What else is there to say? Philadelphia 10, Seattle 7. Burp! The only action in this game will take place at the beer tent. Dallas 27, Washington 24. After careful deliberation this is it. Dallas is just too strong for the aging Skins. The Bag wants to thank his men Harry, Harvy, Dad, Granpa, Space, Jake. Bongo.

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

A mass meeting will be held on Friday, December 10 including speakers and an open forum. The meeting’s goal is formulation and official Vicki Hill. research has included studying the contracts of legally recognized graduate student unions at the Universities of Michigan and Wisconsin, and evaluating documents such as health insurance policies, Title VH and IX of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare’s Educational Amendments, and wage buying power statistics. “GSEU is currently in the middle of a legal battle” for recognition, Hill explained. On December 7 and 8, tables staffed by GSEU members will be set up on all three campuses. At this time, they will publicize their activities until now and request particularly from feedback, graduate students. This “demands ratification of a package” around which the Union will organize in the Spring. They will then take these demands to contract negotiations with the administration. “If the University doesn’t comply, those are our strike demands,” she declared. “The GSEU has between 20 and 25 demands which wC want included in a contract or; other with the formal agreement administration,” explained GSEU President Howard Kling.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

There exists a strange mentality among addicted persons. It is common for an addict to rob his best friend without any real interruption in the friendship. This comes about because without the few friends a junkie may have, there is no one else he can relate to. Consequently, it is an accepted practice to a point. Opium was revered and romanticized at various times throughout history. Today, however, there is an enormous amount of both federal and state legislation which hampers drug usage. After many years of addiction among the working-class poor, there is perhaps a vast hypocrisy in a state government that so rapidly enacts legislation once addiction and abuse appears among suburban and upper-class whites. The next article will deal with the state’s “program” to rehabilitate addicts. . Page six The Spectrum . Monday, 6 December 1976 . For a free booklet on mixology write:GIROUX,P.O.

The State University of New York (or as some choose to call it, SUNY Central) refninds me of George Orwell’s philosophically-oriented novel 1984. Why? Obviously because SUNY Central in Albany is engaged in monetary game, the objective of which is to amass as much “Big Brother”-like-control over some of the people who are needed to keep this system of higher education a going business concern, namely, the students. I am a student at this University. I am number 220299. 1 am a 24 year old junior, 1 guess. I question this because I have accumulated a little over sixty “credit hours” at a variety of institutions and, at last report from my advisor, no real decision has been made regarding where I do indeed stand, academically. 1 attended this University during the Meyerson reign, whem the four-credit hours per class was considered an innovation in American higher education. One feeling that was projected to the incoming students at that time was that one can learn from every experience, whether it be in the classroom, in a book, in a factory (where, by the way, I have spent almost two years), or wherever one happens to be. The motto of this University, as stated on a sign A standard for me and you To the Editor. ' what bullshit! Most students will perform (assuming have the will and capacity) to whatever standards they set for themselves, whether that student is taking 4 or 5 coursers or 1, 3, or 6 courses for that matter. The simple fact is that UB was a guilty participant (along with many others) in a general movement of the late sixties consisting of easing educational standards. The “four course load” is only one symptom amongst others (such as the S/U grading option and the general inflation of grades) of the same decease. The result has been neither better scholars nor better people. There is no standard test today that does not reflect a general decline in academic quality. The cause for this general movement was partly the fear of casting failing students to that hideous monster, the military draft. Most of it however, was a question of .getting carried away with the radical chic of the period. If you say something often enough, you start to believe it. The dangerous part of all this is that the abandonment of standards that demand real performance results in an abdication of personal responsibility for one’s performance. If you can’t cut it in a course, take it S/U! Why work harder or admit that you can’t measure up? Do you want to push your gradepoint average higher? Don’t work harder, they 1 saw somewhere, reads “Let each become all he is I would like to comment on the proposed end to the “four coqrse load,” as it seems to be causing a great gnashing of teeth amongst our student body. I feel uniquely qualified to inflict my views on others because (1) I have had the grand privilege of grinding through the U;B. mill twice as an undergraduate once in the early sixties when three hours credit was given for three contact hours and recently under the “four course load” system, and (2) I can afford to be unbiased as 1 am graduating this January. To all those who speak of the “four course load” as something progressive and worth defending and preserving all I can say is “whom do we think we are kidding?” If I have ever heard a more self-serving, self-pitying group of rationalizations than has been in The Spectrum these last few weeks concerning the passing away pf the hallowed “four course load,” I can’t remember when.. Why don’t we all face the facts? There is only one real reason for taking four courses instead of five it’s easier and less work. By this tremendous feat of legerdemain performed in the late sixties, we now have a college education composed of 32 courses capable of being.” On the other hand, 1 have heard from a number of other people, who inhabit space and time at this University, a dicotomoiis philsophy that goes something like “Shit or get off the pot.” Something is wrong, seriously wrong. The bits and pieces of imformation that I, Number 220299, have been able to receive these past few months, regarding where 1 stand with relation to .iy goal aspirations, has been highly unsatisfactory. I am beginning to believe that nice guys do indeed finish last in this society. This feeling has been compounded and amplified by the manner in which 1 have been treated throughout the course of this semester. My advisor’s response to the computer foul-up that screwed up my registration was “There’s no justice, no justice.” He is probably right. Another all too real example of the depressing aura that seems to cloak the entire system of higher education is the fact that I may not be able to re-register for the Spring ’77 semester because the 'loan I was granted by this University was erroneously used, by me, to pay my tuition. Although I figured paying my tuition was a relatively intelligent course of action to take, I have been informed that, against because of a computer foul-up in Albany with my TAP award, I will.not be able to re-register if 1 don’t pay my room charge. 1 was going to pay my room charge with my duly-earned TAP. TAP people apathetically erred also. Why? As anyone who has done any systems analysis can tell you, any computerized, electronic system is only as good as the people who use it. In other words, a Central Processing Unit (CPU) only outputs what has been humanly input. Therefore, in my mind anyway, other Homo Sapiens goofed, and I’m left with the responsibility, in effect, of correcting their mistakes. I’m justifiably angry. I also am mature enough to realize that the above narration may conceivably be explained away by many with the simple phrase, “That’s the nature of the game, turkey.” Well, so be it. I intend to continue my academic pursuits regardless of these — — — — of the more traditional 40-44 courses. Hosanna! The whole has suddenly become greater than the sum of its parts! Advances like this make take some soft courses where “A” and “B” grades you wonder if the story about the emperor’s new are handed out like candy. Or better yet, go to U.B., clothes aren’t true after all. What the “four course load” really represents is where you can get 4 hours of credit for doing 3 a simple debasement of a college education. It makes hours of work. Personally, I suppose I should be grateful for the comparability between colleges difficult to judge and opens to suspicion the quality of a graduating UB “four course load.” It has enabled me to telescope senior. It means that a major in a subject that 76 credit hours of work down to 16 months, of an impossible feat under the reactionary requires many courses gets less of the general school the old system. However, I can’t really be too impressed background education outside of his major background that makes the difference between an with myself, because I know deep down that I have really completed only 57 hours of work.

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief (c) The Western world needs to view the activities of the U.N. in a positive manner. Although mankind is divided when it comes to the choice of an economic system, there are innumerable areas where cooperation is indeed possible. Peace, freedom, and democracy these are values capable of undergirding projects in all spheres of human endeavor from disarmament to exploration of the sea. Although such a viewpoint does not preclude the possibility of confrontation, it at least views such confrontation in a positive light, as a prelude to cooperation on many diverse fronts. Confronted by the threat of nuclear war and the scourge of underdevelopment, this is an outcome which mankind sorely needs. Therefore, let us work, each in his or her own way, to gradually bring it about. For out of the negative thre can slowly emerge the positive the succulent fruit of sustained human Resolution on contact/credit hours To the Editor following resolution was unanimously by the Psychology Department Senate November 18.

The Bulls “A” team finished a disappointing thrid with 2219 pins, 107 pins behind second place Canisius. The Bulls hosted the tournament, which consisted of five teams. Niagara also accepted an invitation, but did not show up. The Bulls were behind from the beginning. After the second game, ECC and Canisius were battling for first while Buffalo was a distant third. Going into the thrid game, ECC remained on top with a total score of 1578. Canisius was close behind with a score of 1570 while Buffalo’s “A” and “B” teams were in third and fourth place respectively with scores of 1466 and 1397. coach rebuild team scores showed that ECC had increased its lead over the Bulls by 86 pins since the second game. The only bright spot of an otherwise gloomy day was Buffalo’s Gigi Ruddy, who achieved the high series of the day by bowling a 171, 161, and 199. Teammate Angie Stefanucci had a high game with 219. a disappointing performance for the were New York State Champions last winning performance was expected since Cindy Coburn and Sue Fulton, both nationally-ranked bowlers. Furthermore, ECC is not in Buffalo’s division. However, Canisius is in the Bulls division and their second place finish was a bit of an upset. It was Bulls, who year. ECC’s they have Why did the Bulls do so poorly? “This was their first match and they were under a lot of pressure,” Ruddy best said coach Jane Poland. “Many of the girls bowled At the end of the third and final game, it was below their average because of this pressure, but apparent that it just wasn’t the Bulls’ day. The final they will get used to it and do better in the future.” Just off press! There are a lot of new faces on “they’ve been very cooperative,” she said. back from last year’s 3-7 team, and the coach is also new. Pat Hill, who graduated from Buffalo last year, takes over the coaching reins after serving as the team’s assistant coach last year. Short roster The team has only fifteen members, and this may cause some problems. “If someone gets sick, we can’t fill the dual meet the women’s swimming team this year. Only three swimmers are Because of the team’s relative inexperience, Hill expects this to be a rebuilding year for the Bulls. Her philosophy is not so much concerned with winning all of the 1 ' ■ 0> I*'* *-** week and therefore a lack of strategy.” Hill expects the team to be in all the freestyle events.

The key words for the '16—11 Bulls are experience and youth. As the two words imply, this year’s squad consists of many grapplers with carsity experience who are still sophomores or juniors. Of the ten individual weight classes, six are filled by returnees from last year’s team, while two others are filled by Bulls who saw limited varsity action last season. The final two slots will be filled by two junior college transfer students. Heading the list of Buffalo wrestlers are co-captains Bob Martineck (who wrestles at 150), and Kirk Anderson (158), Martineck, the only senior, will be joined by the other veteran Bulls, sophomores Tony Oliveri (118), Ed Tyrrell (134), Gene Tundo (142), and Kurt Linske (heavyweight), and juniors Ray Pfeifer (126), and Rick Bopp (190). Jeff Wheeler, a ransfer from Corning Community College, compete the list of Buffalo grapplers in ’76. In analyzing this year’s team, Michael revealed that, “We have a glaring problem at the upper weights, but our strength lies at the lighter and middle weights.” Michael added that “improvement is to be gained through experience, and this year’s team has more experience than last year’s Call home. Tell Mom you’re alive without killing your budget. team” If last week’s ThanksigiVing Invitational,Tournament for freshmen and sophomores at Corning CC is any indication of what’s in store for Buffalo fans this season, then there may be a sun shining in the Buffalo weather yet. “We have some good young kids,” said an enthusiastic Michael., V Michael’s young Bulls did quite well fonthemselves, as they placed fifth out of twenty-six participating schools. The Bulls were edged out of fourth place in team scoring by a slim few points, while six Bulls placed. Placing in their respective weight classes were: Oliveri (3rd), Steve Tripodi (4th), Tyrrell (1st), John Hughes (2nd), Doug Tingue (1st), and Gary Devin (6th). This Saturday, the Buffalo grapplers will open up their home schedule by facing the Nitfany Lions of Penn State, the defending champions of the Eastern Wrestling League. In anticipation of the Lions first encounter in Buffalo, Michael beamed, “This team has the potential to explode against Penn State.” GRADUATE STUDENT EMPLOYEES UNION Tuesday, Dec. 7 & Wed.

Other considerations aside, what was presumably anticipated was the need, which became urgent in the second semester of 1975-76, to detail budget the imposed by reductions Governor and' the Legislature. These reductions were only the The history - - most .recent in a long series ot in the University’s budget, and in the University’s targets, enrollment iong-term reductions which reductions have been accomplished by delays, freezes, and proposals for change in the projections by the Regents of future college attendance, the pleas of private colleges and universities and of the City University of New York for help. HYC’s fo the defining these larger changes leaves open the question whether we are facing a basic and the in change long-term relationship of this and all universities to society in all the developed nations, or a reasonably local and relatively short-term change arising out of a temporary dip in economic growth. No literature committee can answer this kind of question; until an attempt is made to answer it we must recognize that the careful and intelligent work of UYC must be seen as preliminary, a plunge into the 'the unknown on based unknowable.

He also went to the immense trouble to provide his ouwh statement of the goals and aspirations of the Llniversity as “the first point of reference" for the Committee. Then having set a time-table for the series of the reports and . actions Committee • was to take, he handed his statement, the data he had collected, and a variety of plans, previous self-studies. evaluations, accreditation reports.

The absences of a plan, as the President perceived it, seems to have left him and HYC with the feeling that budget changes based on a on the fortuitous reliance accidents of turnover were not rationally directed towards the long-range goals of the University. His assumption seems to be and to have been that a rational plan relating means to ends was both desirable and possible. HYC, of course, shares this assumption and goes further, when it suggests that “total rational planning can counter random attempts by to groxips control external intended to cover; he did not say what it was he meant or what the document should look like. Nor did he explain why he felt the need for still more evaluations of the University’s programs and or why he had decided that the Committee could not look at the entire resource situation of the University.

Some bombs were comouflaged to look like leaves, so that when someone stepped on one it would blow their foot off. What led to such horrendous crimes was the fact that the vast majority of the Vietnamese were opposed Saigon to the government and U.S. interference in their nation’s affairs. The only the U.S. solution, thought government, was to terrorize the people into submission by killing and maiming as many as possible. politicians of both major parties, here as well as those abroad.

Eisenhower later admitted that the Vietnamese people would have voted for a Communist if elections would have been held in 1956, as called for in the Geneva Agreements. He wrote in his book. Mandate for the Change : “I have never corresponded with a person knowledgeable in Indochinese affairs who did not agree that had elections been held . . . possibly 80 percent of the population would have voted for the communist, Ho Chi Minh.” The severity of the crimes that have been committed in Vietnam by U.S. imperialism will go down in history alongside the crimes of ‘tin and gungsten' Nazi Germany'.

Snow, of course. — The Spectrum State University of New York at Buffalo Vol. 27, No. 41 More student newspaper/government Friday, 3 December 1976 conflict CCNY Senate may cut off newspaper’s funds by Brett Kline Feature k'ditor The Student Senate of City College of New York will whether to cut off funds for The Campus, the student largest newspaper there, and officially revoke its charter. The Senate voted last Wednesday to suspend the printing of the seventy-year old paper, claiming it “had received many comments from faculty, administrators and Senate members concerning The Campus’ news coverage.” Although relations between the Senate (student government) and The Campus have been strained throughout the year, the call to suspend and possibly revoke the paper’s charter was based on certain articles concerning actions of the Senate, and editorials criticizing these actions, according to Editor-in-Chief Dale Ericht-a. The first incident occurred last May when The Campus printed an editorial denouncing the newly-elected Senate for threatening both a reporter and the future of The Campus itself, Brichta said. Senate members angrily denied the charges. vote today Political favor Brichta also said that on October 15 of this year, The Campus printed what the Senate called “unfavorable” accounts of the hiring of a new lawyer for the Legal Aid Center. She personally felt that the hiring of the lawyer. William Lake, was a political favor to City Clerk David Dinkins, who had recommended Lake for the job. The Campus reported that Lake had been hired at the rate of forty dollars an hour, three times the rate of last year. This was disputed by student ombudsman, Thorne Brown, who is responsible for the lawyer’s hiring. On November 12, The Campus ran a photo on a forum of the College’s chapter of American Association of University Professors termed “poor” by Brichta which focused on one professor, Bernard Bellush, who is white. A history professor, Stanley Page, then drafted and read a letter to the Senate Student and Faculty Senates, accusing the paper of “distorting the facts” and being “biased” in its coverage. The Wednesday following the photo, an editor of the Observation Post, another on-campus newspaper, called Brichta and told her that the Senate had met and suspended The Campus. Brichta noted, “No one was given an agenda for the meeting. Common courtesy and protocol were not followed.” Senate meetings are not usually covered by The Campus. — — Charges against paper The newspaper is being brought up on the following charges, according to Student Senator Hugh Lawrence, and an unidentified member of the investigating committee: Distortion of truth, misrepresentation of facts, malignment of the characters of certain individuals and — invasion of the privacy of certain others. Violation of the Board of Higher Education Policy Manual Violation of City College Handbook on Student Organizational Finances on issues governing the printing of newspapers and journals. Violation of the same handbook, specifically the Department of Student Personal Services, concerning finances and fiscal irresponsibility. Neither spokesman from the Student Senate would elaborate on the charges of fiscal irresponsibility. On November 15, the New York Times quoted an editorial by Brichta which stated: “The Senate’s indiscriminant lack of courtesy, protocol, and knowledge of First Amendment rights, coupled with its complete lack of understanding as to the workings of a professional newspaper, cause us to question their right to exist.” Brichta said last Wednesday, “1 think they will vote to suspend. The administration will have to step in at that point, 1 think. I will print anyway.” She pointed out that The Campus had already spent its Senate allocation of $5300 and was now subsisting entirely on advertising revenue. The Campus has been publishing weekly since 1907 and has a circulation of 12,000. Its publication funds were suspended once before, in 1940, by an alumrti group called the Campus Association, over alleged participation in so-called radical activities. - — - �the police networks.

That was the nature of a nasty rumor floating around Divine Light circles since late this summer, but it was recently squelched by Maharaj Ji’s personal - secretary, John Miller. Asked by Light Reading, the Divine Light Mission’s bi-weekly newspaper, if these rumors of Perfect Master mischief-making were true. Miller responded, “1 don’t think that’s happened in a long time. The last time he was in a pool in Los Angeles, he just invited all the premmies (followers) , up who had been doing service in the community and let them experience a day of relaxatidn.

The booklet called “The Menopause: A New Life of Confidence and Contentment” was distributed to physicians by the tens of thousands. Each of its 34 pages contained a comic strip which printed questions asked and answered by an Ogden, Utah obstetrician. One cartoon showed a woman with a bottle of estrogen pills asking whether or not the pills cause cancer. “Only in mice,” was the response. Doctors have jumped on the brand-wagon when it comes to advertising the estrogen pills and one Brooklyn. N.Y. gynecologist wrote a book called Feminine Forever which acclaimed the drugs, and sold 100,000 copies within eight months. And then there is the controversial Daikon Shield, an intrauterine contraceptive device which grossed millions in sales and profits, carrying injury, disease and even death in its corporate wake. As of January at least 17 had died as a result of problems incurred with the 1UD. The device was invented by Irwin Lerner, a former electrical engineer, and Dr. Hugh J.

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

B leak job outlookfor grads by Bill McGraw Special to The Spectrum (CPS) Ten p.m., University of Minnesota; The doors don’t even open till 7 a.m. the next morning but already students are - milling about. A janitor shows them the door but they sneak back in. Other students begin gathering outside in the cold, dark hours before dawn. “1 felt like 1 was getting into my car with my husband in the middle of the night to go have a baby or something,” said one student as she joined the early morning 7 a.m. rolls throng. Finally around, the doors are unlocked and the students pour in. Before long, everything is taken. That was not the scene in front of a ticket booth but rather the bizarre spectacle of job-hungry students arriving, at 2:45 a.m. at the University’s Business school placement office. The students were jockeying for positions for the chance to sign up for interviews with prospective employers. These students don’t want tickets, they want work. Many students are Work. obsessed with the idea of work these days mainly because they can’t find any. Guidance counselors, report many students at wit’s end at the thought of graduation and the dismal job market that goes with it. Tales abound of students dashing off hundreds of resumes , only to receive zilch in return. The Daily Nebraskan student newspaper devotes an entire issue of its armed even with master’s degrees are unplugging sewers for a living, if they are lucky enough to find even'those jobs. Things are cetainly bad now in the job market and the future appears grim at best, once one wades through job the jabberwocky spewed forth by economic cheerleaders like political candidates and placement officers. Currently, unemployment is hovering at the 7.8 percent level overall; it’s 12.7 percent for blacks, 18.6 percent for teenagers and 40 pe’fcent for black teenagers in cities. Thbse figures are the highest since the Depression and one should keep in mind those are the government’s figures many experts put the overall rate at 10.5 percent with all other figures dozens of points higher than what Uncle Sam says they are. The basic reason for this jobless mess is imple, economists agree: the economy is just not able to generate enough work for everyone who wants a job. It’s true that there are more people working than ever before, but at the same time there are also many more people not working who want or need a job. One major reason is that women have entered accordingly. But won’t things get better like they always do? Some people, like the congressional sponsors of and other jobless legislation eternal optimists, say yes. But increasingly, usually many conservative voices are agreeing there had-been a corner turned in the American economy, and although they aren’t exactly sure what it is, they are coming out and saying the future is really not all that bright-. ‘‘The next president, whoever he is. may not find the solution simple,” warned The Wall Street Journal in a front page article on unemployment this fall. “The ahead may find that providing a payroll spot for every male or female who ‘wants’ one may be a very big order for any years president, any government,”7Vu' Widely congress, any Journal added. respected Business Week magazine echoed the same theme last spring. “In the western —continued on page 17 — Jazz trumpeter extraordinaire Woody Shaw will be in Buffalo for three shows this weekend at the Tralfamadore Cafe, 2610 Main Street (at Fillmore).

The Spectrum Page five . �Edk.°rial Spineless University It's all too easy The debate over the four-course load here has raised some points that are nebulous and uncertain, but one thing as of yet, the Administration and the Faculty is clear Senate subcommittee have been absolutely unwilling to defend a convention they once readily conceived and — executed. Students at this University should not merely accuse the Division of the Budget of adversely manipulating the crediting system at SUNY, using financial, and not academic, considerations. Let us first realize that the SUNY Central memorandum, mandating the course-load change, does allot for justification of alternate systems. This is not the first time that the four-course load has been threatened; in fact, the issue has surfaced annually since 1969, and then somehow, quietly, plunged back into the ground. For years, proponents of the four-course load have breathed sighs of relief as the minor crises passed, naively setting aside the problem for another year This year, however, the University was caught with its pants down by an Albany administrator who refused to be appeased with intangible, inconclusive double-talk. It is understandable that the Division of the Budget is attempting to eliminate our dollar-swallowing nonconformity, since it has been given no hardcore evidence that this unique policy Exposed Amherst garbage To the Editor 1 was walking past Fronezak and the future union on Amherst the other day and I happened to concrete tins being used as trash Looking inside I saw something that resembled a pop art centerpiece at a ladies’ garden club luncheon: Coke cans, Pepsi cans, cups, and newspapers mixed with straws, paper wads and pine cones all imbedded in a block of ice. Obviously the uncovered aperture of the bin notice the receptacles. - facilitated the accumulation of water as well as refuse. Unless garbage collections are made with ice tongs then trash containers should be covered. It may deprive a budding basketball star an opportunity for a hook shot with an empty beer can or k quarterback in training of a target forHis candy bar wrapper, but at least we won’t have to wait for spring thaw for garbage collection. C’mon, Maintenance where are those trash can lids? - Brian Douglas is beneficial to students The University has created its own death trap by not seeking data which would determine the relative value of the four-course load. We are not such die-hard fans of the four-course load that we can demand, without qualification, that the University preserve the present system. While the four-course load was originally considered innovative and promising, there is no documented evidence that it has been veritably beneficial to University students. Supposing, then, the system has been detrimental; without interference of the Division of the Budget, students would continue indefinately to receive a compromising education. On the other hand, if the reverse is true, that is, if the four-course load has truly broadened and deepened education, then the submissive decision of an indolent faction of this University to return without question to a poorer system, is a pathetically wasteful, cowardly mistake.

Friday, 3 December 1976 �Violence is the theme at Pfeifer and Harriman Two acclaimed modern dramas Atholl Fugard's The Blood Knot and Israel Horovitz' The Indian Wants The Bronx will be performed under the auspices of the UB Theatre Department as part of the Department's symposium on "Violence in Theatre." The Blood Knot will be presented tonight thru Sunday, December 5, and Thursday thru Sunday, December 9 thru 12, at the Pfeifer Theatre, Lafayette and Hoyt; The Indian Wants The Bronx runs Tuesday, December 7, thru Sunday, December 12, at the Harriman Theatre Studio. Performances of both plays begin at 8 p.m. each night. Fugard himself describes the basic idea of The Blood Knot: "I am a South African white skinned. There are three million of us. There are also twelve million dark-skinned South Africans." His play is a one white, one two-character drama, and his characters are brothers black, both sharing a meager existence in a South African port. - . — » — 'Into the maws of hell Their relationship is an abrasive one, reflecting th,e larger aspects of the rift between white and black. Yet Fugard reveals a great sensitivity and poignance, and refused to stereotype; he has lived much of his play, and he makes the experience meaningful, above all, on a human level. He describes the climax of the play: "At the end, the very end of the play, after a game which had the brothers looking into the maws of hell, and which they will surely play after this game and again tomorrow night, and the night after that just before sleep, the dark-skinned brothers asks, 'What is it, Morrie? in here?' The two of us . . . you know "The light-skinned brother replies, 'Home.' The other then asks: Ms there no other way?' Morris' reply is told at the very end of the — ... play Saul Elkin, chairman of the Theatre Department, plays the white-skinned brother, Morris; Ed Smith, Professor of Black Studies and adjunct professor of the Theatre Department, plays the dark-skinned brother, Zachariah, and directed the production. 'Indian Israel Horovitz' The Indian Wants the Bronx is the winner of an Obie Award as best off-broadway play of 1971, and drew nationwide attention to Horovitz as a major new playwright. The UB production is directed by Ray Munrd, graduate fellow of the Center for Theatre Research, whose previous directing credits include The Alley Between Our Two Houses at UB last year. Tickets for both plays are $1 for students and senior citizens, $2.50 for the public, and are available in advance at the Norton Ticket Office, and at the respeqtive theatre box offices. Due to the limited seating capacity of both theatres, advance ticket purchase is advised. For further information on the plays, or on other events in the “Violence in Theatre" seminar, call the Theatre Department at 831-2045. . . Chieftans deliver drive and beauty of a musical heritage “Irish music." What does that mean to you? The Clancy Brothers belting out "The Rising of the Moon?" The old "Dublin in the Green" commercial for Black Label Beer? South Buffalo taverns on March 17? Whatever image came to mind, most likely it wasn't that of the seven rather undistinguished-looking Irishmen themselves the call who Chieftains. But when they play the music of their homeland, anywhere from Dublin to Tokyo, not even the walls can stand still. Their Buffalo concert on November 18 brought a sprightly spirit of delight into staid old Hall. In Music Kleinhans surroundings where the aura of decorum is usually stiffer than a starched shirt-front, by the second set there were people dancing in the aisles, weaving through the of Celtic conga Even the line. older members of the audience, doubtless there with an obligation to plumb the musical depths of their Auld Sod were tapping their feet and audience in a sort fingers Reeling and sliding What the Chieftains play isn't "Mother Machree" or syrupy "Finnegan's Wake," clinched Paddy leader, which their Moloney, decries as "garbage." Their Ireland's music is jigs instrumental dance music and airs, reels, slides, hornpipes and completely instrumental with - very rare exceptions; in Moloney's "It'd be like an orchestra getting up and singing if we did All of the Chieftains are virtuosos, and they each have words, their specilaities. At the center is Ireland's most Moloney on unusual instrument, the Uilleann pipes, whose player must handle pumping a bellows with his right arm, holding and wrists. It's one of the most difficult instruments in the world to play, and Moloney, a piper since before his teens, handles them brilliantly. After the pipes, the fiddle is the Irish folk instrument, and the Chieftains have two fiddlers. Martin Fay specializes in the gentle, graceful airs, and Sean Keane in the lightning-fast jigs and , reels, full of rich embellishment. Derek Bell fills out.the string section on Irish harp; classically trained, he brings a virtuoso's technique to a folk musician's instructive trained, he brings a virtuoso's technique to a folk musician's instinctive feel for the heart of a song. Especially fine are his versions of the music of the great folk harper, Carolan; Bell's playing of Cardan's "Farewell to at Music" Kleinhans was heart-stopping in its beauty. Michael Tubridy is perhaps the most versatile of the group, playing flute, pennywhistle, and concertina with equal skill. By contrast, Sean Potts sticks to the whistle, but he can blow magic out of the shrill, airy tones of this simplest of instruments. Finally, youngest and the newest provies Conneff, Chieftain, Keven (a with bodrhan percussion drum) hand-held single-headed, and bones. The Chieftains began with what was originally intended to be a one-shot record for the Irish folk label Claddagh. That first effort resulted in so many international invitations to concerts and festivals that three more followed, the group growing from five to seven. But the group still held onto their day jobs seeing the music as secondary "Until last year", says Moloney I never promoted the group Making the fashionable Last year, though, was when the Chieftains emerged from their reputation subterranean as international folk favorites and broke into the mainstream. They signed with a major label, Island; their fifth album, called simply Chieftains 5, became a moderate hit by pop standards, and thus a blockbuster by folk ones; and England's leading music paper. -continued on page 8— �Chieftains Melody Maker, named them Group of the Year, "for making unfashionable music fashionable". They also contributed to the score of Stanley Kubrick's Barry Lyndon; the film faced a mixed reception, but the soundtrack sold well, and earned the Chieftains a share in an Oscar. Finally they became full-time musicians, one —continued from page 7— ... album's title track, perhaps the Chieftain's finest achievement as artists It's a fourteen-minute program piece, composed by Moloney, telling the story of Napoleon in verses, tunes, and even an excerpt composition by from a Napoleon's court harpist. Many Irish looked to Napoleon as a romantic hero, or even a liberator from England's tyrrany, and the music paints that picture vividly. They were, and are, a dynamite dance band: the album's last track, a medley of slides, is sheer disposal, Moloney's arrangements delight, thanks oartly to the bring a never-before-heard depth dancers who kicked up their heels to music that can seem, on the with the group. But Bonaparte's surface, to sound much the same. Retreat shows the Chieftains Most of their music is medleys of progressing into interpreters of a and heritage, musical two, three, or more tunes, but, in rich distinctly Moloney's words, "I don't just say producing something 'you play the first part and you play the second.' I try to think about the instruments, about the best way to bring out what's in that tune. And everyone in the band plays so well; we all have our own qualities, our own specialties From many, one Irish music is, by tradition. played by only a few instruments, and always exactly in unison.

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

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

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

Prodigal Sun © 1976 Friday, 3 December This time the audience demanded an encore. Snow came out trilling "operatic disco" while using a throat spray. "F.E.H. Feh!" she exclaimed to the amusement of my Jewish companion. The singers gave a gospel overlap intro to a slow rendition of the new single recorded with Paul Simon. "I've had a long streak of bad luck, but I pray it's gone at last." Phoebe Snow's bad luck with audience is bound to improve as soon as she gets out of Buffalo, 1976 . The Spectrum . Page eleven �Melanie, Photograph (Altantic) It has been said that rock music (and all music, for that matter) is essentailly sexual a statement very hard to dispute. Music has made sex symbols out of the most unlikely artists, like David Bowie and Elton John, while many other performers, such as John Travolta, have become the most unlikely musical stars because of their aura of — RECORDS sexuality. This phenomenon has become much more pronounced in the mid-seventies, causing many musicians of the sixties to either undergo drastic changes in style or fade away completely. Melanie is unfortunately one of the latter. She must be near 30, but her face and her music still project the same childlike innocence they did eight years ago. Her latest album. Photograph, does not give any indication that she is willing to change that image. This is not to say that Photograph is a carbon copy of her two previous efforts. Rather, it shows a number of advances and an equal number of retreats. It is rather inconsistent (which may be a serious flaw), but its high points are much better than anything she has recorded in the past two years, and are almost enough to make its low points bearable. Most of these high points are contained in two songs. The first one opens up side two; entitled "I'm So Blue," it features a haunting melody and a beautiful, jazz-tinged arragement, highlighted by a saxaphone solo by Art Pepper. The song reminds one vaguely of Joni Mitchell, and the lyrics are among the most emotional that Melanie has ever written. "I'm So Blue" represents a new direction for her, one which she would be wise to follow. The second song worth noting is called "Raindance," and it is a dance as light, graceful, airy and joyous as a ballet. This effect is enhanced by its fine arrangement, which borrows heavily from Billy Joel's "Piano Man" but still preserves the song as a Melanie creation. Regrettably, these two are the only cuts that are not plagued by some defect or other. However, there are several compositions in which the problems are not too great. "Photograph," for example, has a nice, very interesting melody, a fitting arrangement and good lyrics. Melanie ruins it, though, by using a voice comparable to that of a 1920's salesman of elixirs or other junk. "Nickel Song" is similarly destroyed, not only by the vocal, but also by an arrangement that seems a »bit too contrived. Melanie describes it as “a child who has grown and matured," yet, in the opinion of this reviewer, the child was infinitely more enjoyable. Most of the remaining songs are run-of-the-mill Melanie compositions are neither extraordinarily good nor extraordinarily bad, entertaining but not accomplished enough to be memorable. "Secret of the Darkness" evokes images of "Ring the Living Bell', and represents one of those musical retreats mentioned earlier. "Cyclone" is forceful, "If I Needed You"- and "Friends & Co." are not, and none of them deserves any more mention. Melanie covers only one song on Photograph: the old Box Top's hit, "The Letter." As expected, it is a long, drawn out, boring thing; unlike her female contemporaries, she is a terrible interpreter of other people's material. This tune," "Groundhog Day," and "Save Me" are the absolute low points of the album. The latter two are too aimless and monotonous even to be listenable, and sound as if very little time or energy were put into their production. It is fortunate that these songs do not dominate the album, for they would change a nondescript effort into a forgettable one. Photograph, as mentioned before, has some material that could give Melanie's music a new and perhaps more successful direction. Let's hope she realizes this before it it too late. —Eugene Zielinski — BUFFALO PHILHARMONIC Michael Tilson Thomas, Music Director $2.50 BARGAIN Student Rush Tickets A ailable 30 Minutes Before a Concert With Proper Identification Kleinhans Music Hall Check Norton Union Ticket Office for Dates, Programs COMING Henryk Szeryng, violinist, 8:30 pm, Dec. 4; 2:30 pm, Dec. 5 Handel's Messiah, Robert Cole, conductor, 8 pm Dec. 11; 2:30pm Dec. 12 Council Opticians EYES EXAMINED NO APPOINTMENT NECESSARY • • GLASSES MADE WHILE YOU WAIT IN MOST CASES CONTACT LENSES (including soft) • Buffalo, Lafayette Sq-853-5133 Clarence, Transitown Plaza-633-2440 West Seneca-3525 Seneca-674-8300 Page twelve . The Spectrum Friday, 3 December 1976 . recording was a self contained vignette, with subject Sparks, Big Beat (Columbia) There are some groups which, having put out matter which was generally unique enough to bear just one album, should have just disappeared forever. up under repeated listenings. On Big Beat these often Sparks is a prime example. During the early seventies vignettes have degenerated into mere jokes they produced two rather nondescript albums; then, with a single punchline and sometimes almost after a drastic personnel and label change, Kimono incoherent. Although Ron Mael does touch on a few My House was released. Kimono My House may be unusual themes, such as boredom (“If I had a million the best pop album of the seventies, showing a rare thumbs I'd twiddle, twiddle. But I just have two."). combination of lyrical and musical excellence, unlike It seems that most of the titles (‘“Everybody's the efforts of so many of Sparks' more famous Stupid", "Throw Her Away and Get a New One") contemporaries. As witty and melodic as it was, are funnier than the songs themselves. The enjoyable moments on Big Beat only occur however, it represented an absolute peak of their talent and did not offer any new musical direction when the heavy metal arrangements andthe melody for the group. Consequently, all of Sparks' following lines complement each other. Moments is an albums, although fairly enjoyable in themselves, appropriate term, as only certain parts or aspects of sound superfluous in comparison to that one the songs, are enjoyable, such as the melody of predecessor. "Confusion" and the brass section in "I .Like Girls". Perhaps the Mael brothers have finally realized A possible exception to this might be "White this, for Big Beat represents an unusual but not Women", which displays a nice, simple guitar entirely surprising change for them. Like so may arrangement and lyrics which are quite funny, if not other British bands, Sparks have turned to heavy taken too seriously: metal. Gone is the distinctive keyboard work that They walk without a swagger used to be their trademark; in its place is a host of Their power's on the wane electric guitars a complete reversal of most of their previous arrangements.

Vocalist Russ Mael sounds bored throughout most of the material, and the songs themselves are hardly among the best that Ron Mael has written. Mael has always composed tunes that lend themselves well to keyboard arrangements; he has not changed his style here, and the result is that most of the songs sound awkward at best and Usually, it is up to the critics to find out what Is' wrong (or right) about a a group and/or an album but Big Beat has one song that almost makes this review unnecessary. In it, the syndrome of the seventies is accurately depicted; since Sparks are effectively a phenomenon of this decade, it describes them equally as well: Screwed up, that's the problem You're going down, down, down, down, down obnoxious at worst. This situation is not at all Screwed up, that's your problem helped by guitarist Jeffrey Salen, who shows little You're comirig unwound, wound, wound, finesse and no restraint at all in playing his wound, wojund instruments.

Each song on that Nothing more needs to be said -Eugene Zielinski / Don McLean, Solo (United Artists) You remember Don McLean, don't you? That's right. He's the folk singer no one knew in 1971, became a superstar in 1972, and no one knew again in 1973. When "American Pie" was sitting on the top of the charts, McLean had his face splattered on the cover of Time magazine, was nominated for several Grammy Awards, and was frequently a guest on prominent television shows. Since then, however, McLean has seldom been seen in magazines, has not been nominated for any awards, and the only guest appearances he has made are in the discount and budget bins of record stores. So what ever happened to Don McLean? Not very much, actually. Since American Pie, his most famous and best album, he has had three more studio albums: Don McLean, Playin' Favorites, and Homeless Brother, each one selling more poorly than its predecessor. With the weak sales of these ablums, and of his first album, Tapestry , it is hard for one to get excited or to expect much from his newest recording venture, Solo. With his album, McLean has jumped onn "the bandwagon:" Solo is another in the recent rash of double live sets. If the thought of Don McLean in' concert does not excite you, neither will this LP, Certainly members of the dwindling McLean cult will buy this album, but will record buyers swarm to their area record stores and dole out the price of a double album to hear Don McLean live? I think not. This album is definitely not a Frampton Comes Alive, but, by the same token, neither is it a McLean Falls Dead. This album, if nothing else, does boast McLean's fine song-writing talents. "Vincent," "Empty Chairs," and "Three Flights Up" are lyrically superb. But songwriting does not an album make. A good album should also have strong vocals, professional musicianship, and diverse arrangements. This is where McLean falls short. Solo, as its name implies, is McLean alone. He accompanies himself on banjo and folk guitar, and has no back-up singers or musicians. Whether he performs alone for economy or for convenience, I do not know. But he is sacrificing some of his best songs by doing it. A minor hit from the Homeless Brother album, "Wonderful Baby," was particularly enjoyable in its studio form because of its angelic female harmonies. However, in its live unaccompanied form, anything formerly good this song is lost. It has. gone from a coy, light song tp a pointless nonsense song. The biggest disappointment of this album is the McLean classic, "American Pie." Gone is the magic this song originally possessed, magic that once had a nation humming its incredible melody. Gone is the piano, the one feature of the nine minute studio recording which bound the loose ends together. Gone are the drums and electric instruments which made this song a rock and roll as well as a folk classic. And gone are the strong vocals which had the media predicting superstar status for McLean. Instead, in their place, is an ever present reminder that Don McLean is on the verge of becoming a has-been, a performer who missed his chance at reaching the heights predicted of him. But McLean is not surprised by the drastic turn his career took after "American Pie." On his Don McLean album, the one immediately, following American Pie, and afso on the Solo album, there is an autobiographical song called "Dreidel," a searching look at insecurity and stardom. In this song, McLean accurately predicts that his future is black, and that the "sky shoes" that were to raise him to superstar heights, "are spiked with lead heels." Although McLean never came to be a superstar, he is a respected and talented folksinger. And Solo, despite its obvious faults, has its high points. "Babylon" is beautiful, as McLean has divided the audience into three groups who then sing the song in rounds as he accompanies them on guitar. The album also reveals some of the McLean humor in several of the songs. But on the whole, Solo is quite poor. It is a desperate attempt at winning back his audience, and I'm afraid it is a failure. To take liberty with some of the "American Pie" lyrics, think it is safe to say: Bye, bye Mr. Don McLean. This is the day your music died. -Bob McCrone I Prodigal Sun �David Laflamme, White Bird (Amherst) i As the sticker on the jacket of this album says, David Lafliamme is the former writer, vocalist, violinist, and leader of It's A Beautiful Day. That band enjoyed a moderate amount of success, and their two most popular (recognizable) hits have been rearranged and recorded to lead off this Laflamme release,. David has surrounded himself with a group of unknown, inexperienced musicians to rekindle his musical career: the accompanying female singer is a new, raw, vocally-untrained talent (though she sings at least as well as David); the person David chose as his guitarist could not play the guitar at the time; and the band's "keyboard man'' is a teenage child prodigy from Rochester, who helps Laflamme write and arrange songs. The two remarks, “White Bird" and "Hot Summer Day", are all right; I liked the original "White Bird" better, but prefer the new version of "Hot Summer Day." It is basically a matter of personal taste; these new versions are more controlled and restrained, more professional, and consequently, less lively. The entire album is recorded well, although the tracks seem a bit empty because Laflamme avoided the recently popular practice of adding orchestration (the indiscriminate use of 1001 Strings or the Boston Pops to give even the least original song an air of professionalism.) "Swept Away" concludes side one. It is the least orthodox (and probably the best) cut on the album: a fast paced, pseudo-jazz/muzak instrumental ballad. If that description leaves you cold, liken it to a cross between Kansas and Genesis playing department store music. The tempo slows abruptly several times, each time gradually regaining momentum. There is no focal point or climax, and the song ends unexpectedly, a welcome change from the overworked "fade-out" Patti Smith, Radio Ethiopia (Arista) Patti Smith is a part of life like all the short if the stories stories you ever felt impassioned by could approach living, if they could etch imagery on your fleshy soul, they would approach the impact of himself/ He pisses urine which philosophizes to/ grimy, sly, waxy floor and reaches the door/ c her work. Patti slips into personal expression when she ponders love between two in a way common to all. "Ain't it Strange" melds what is shocking in the world with what is usually tensely guarded and private. The song reveals the masses while reading love thoughts and heart talks: — — Patti pushes into people's senses as a poet. As one winds through the Gotham Book Mart in New York City, the pumping collage of people flows into controlling depths in a bottomless pit. the mind You buy her book, Witt, you read and buy her and you become her. Her prisoner, origins, her life lauding her words, her slave your slave. The streets are wet with new year's January blues, Subway shakes, twists and winds as the mind meanders in thoughts of her wild word. No wild world can touch me real fantasy. — — — down in vineland/ there’s a clubhouse/ girl in white dress/ boy shoot white stuff/ oh don't they know that anyone can join/and they come and they call and they fall on the floor/ don't you see when you're looking at me/ that i’ll never end transcend . . ain't it strange . Mouths turn down to frown on expression/ No butt in. but I's sleep unimpassioned to drunks/and i, a Foreigner, am the only one to see/he has guts; but sighing lights/ went off in the subway day. . small: move with masses of large little people And turn and blank blink at millions and try / million alone On the subway, we millions see a drunk fatting and slobbering. So the nervous memories edge their way to the foreground. Yes, Patti Smith has released a new album called Radio Ethiopia. The high priestess of rock spirals her way into your mind. It is the burgeoning poetic mind that will consume the album those who ending crave creativity. The mood changes radically on the flipside: Laflamme undergoes accurately, Bruce Patti's previous release, Horses, emitted a or more Jekyll/Hyde transformation, a sensual creativity which delved into personal Springsteen/Disco Duck. The Duck is predominant in “Easy Woman" and "This Man," the former being strictly disco-based, although the narrations of love and violence. Each song rose, latter begins with a very un-Disco instrumental passage. The choruses peaked and ended with Patti's voice controlling the story's drama. The tempo was paced slowly and are hell, however. deliberately, in ironic compatibility with each Movin on down the highway poem's devastating plot. Horses' production was Doot doot doot innovative enough that one could listen to the album It's lonely on the road repeatedly and conceive different images each time a Dootdoot doot sone was played. Radio Ethiopia is inventive, although through a Etcetera. The dances are danceable, semi-innovaJive, and contain more entirely separate from that of Horses.

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

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

Some people profit by becoming the ep/gones of Joe McCarthy, J.

Krehbiel represents the side of American history of which we can be proud: the side that fights genocide, slavery, colonialism and Fascism. If Paul can go to jail for 15 years for these progressive activities, anyone on the left could go to jail also. Are not the laws pertaining to revolution, rebellion and insurrection used or threatened to be used to silence those who speak out and even organize, against the atrocities of the war mongers and merchants of death.

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

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

This could be time. The Faculty Senate Committee would, in proposal effect, eliminate the four-course load for most students by tailoring credit to the Carnegie unit, officially adopted by SUNY Central. The Carnegie unit awards one credit per fifty minutes of class time. Presently, all SUNY schools use the Carnegie unit except the SUNY centers at Buffalo and The Binghamton.

Speaking forcefully, and often with anger, the four African spokespersons in the Third wrold Week’s Southern Africa panel Thursday displayed confidence and assertiveness while representing the liberation movements now fighting in their respective white-ruled countries — Rffodesia, Namibia, and South African National Union (ZANU). Alfred Baazhi Makobo officially represents, ZANU in the United States, and was one of the panel guests. Though seemingly the least 1890s, was that the black struggle for freedom is nothing new, and in fact dates to the first arrival of the white man. SWAPO is the response to that polished oppression, Gurirab said, which despite terrific South African of the speakers, he nevertheless appeared the most dedicated and personally involved in the “struggle” he described. Primary among his thoughts was ZANU’s complete repudiation of the recent Kissinger accord “agreed” to by the African heads of state neighboring Zimbabwe. Those leaders denounced both the agreement and Kissinger when the document was made public, citing “distortions” and lies. Even the most moderate of the black nationalists declared it ‘‘unsatisfactory and ' unacceptable.” Makobo explained that ZANU has'since 1966 asserted that it would negotiate with the Ian Smith government only on the mechanics of the immediate power. over of handing white Negotiations on an participation interim in government, or any other issue including the minority “rights” of whites, would not be considered. This included compensation for white property. “We have been exploited for a hundred years, and nobody has compensated us. But those who have exploited us for so long, they are to receive a bonus.” (Two billion dollars in almost compensation is to be alloted to expropriated Rhodesians.)

"We ary liberating Zimbabwe; not asking for it, we are going to take it.” Africa.

Rhodesia is now involved in an escalating liberation war. By far the most significant organization behind this is the Zimbabwe Fighters executed The SWAPO (liberation group in Namibia) representative. Theo Ben Gurirab, spoke of the execution of more than 100,000 by Namibians the German colonialists around the turn of the said century. Gurirab the slaughtered Namibians were casualties of the need to “feed the imperalist stomachs outside Africa.” His point, as with Makobo, who declared that native resistence was strong as soon as Cecil Rhodes has arrived in the pressures has remained unified and consistent in its opposition to imperialism and apartheid. “Black majority leading rule the to creation of a democratic socialist state is our aim.” Speaking of South African efforts to destroy SWAPO (South Africa has occupied Namibia since 1918, illegally since 1966), the Namibian said, “They have sent out bandits, masking as SWAPO, to terrorize the people and discredit us.” And the South Africans have tried to foment “.internal [inside the country] and external [exiled] wings of our group that would be at odds.” Concluding his talk, C.urirab addressed what has become a particularly thorny issue among leftists in this country.

Details will be available at a free evening program of motion picutres and slides, entitled “Israel-ltaly Tour Night,” to be presented in the Student Center Fireside Lounge at CanisiuS College tomorrow at 8 p.m. Committee failures hit GSEU text on contact credit hours meeting Editor’s note: Following is the text of the statement read by Graduate Student Employees Union Secretary Stratton Rawson at last Tuesday’s meeting of the Faculty Senate, in response to the report of the Faculty Senate Committee on Contact/Credit Hours. Le me begin with what may seem a small complaint. The committee willfully omitted from its meeting the undergraduate who was appointed to it And, as far as I can determine, it did not think a graduate student even necessary to its task. But, as any priest can tell you, such minor sins of omission are signs of greater sins. Why were the LaLonde, S.A. Director of Academic Affairs, students omitted? makes the answer obvious. Because students would haye insisted upon an evaluation of the four course load before dumping it. One doesn’t have to examine the signatures to divine that students didn’t participate in writing the report or its recommendations. The report accepts without murmur the administrative position. It only talks of the transition from the present system to one it claims is mandated by administrative fiat. Unlike the faculty caught in a similar situation in Binghamton, the committee failed to address the merits of the four course lead; it failed to defend or investigate established educational practice at U.B. This committee saw its job as simply carrying out the financially troubled will of the SUNY administration both here and in Albany. What keeps his guard up, but tells all comers that the Russians want peaceful Surely it is the educational well-being of the students at this University. Yet today the Senate is considering adopting a report which talks of education only in terms of facilities planning, of Schedules, and of “cross campus comparability.” If the committee wanted to ignore any evaluation of the four course load, so be it; but the Senate must not. The memorandum from SUNY which created this furor specifically allows exceptions to the Carnegie unit, as long as such exceptions are justified. The Senate has not yet mandated an evaluation in order to determine if the four course load is educationally justified. It ought to. The questions this report begs about the quality of undergraduate education are very serious ones. But not only are work load and class size issues important to undergraduates, graduate students might also suffer from the proposed changes. The implications of this report are clear to graduate employees. Since this report and the memorandum attached to it carry no new budgetary allocations, we can only conclude that the transition to the five course load in Social Sciences and the Humanities will mean both that class enrollments will be increased and that more courses will have to be taught. Despite the lure of larger enrollments, an inflated class size benefits no one educationally: not faculty, not students, not TAs. The G.S.E.U. is especially concerned with what happens when the number of classes taught must be increased. Who will teach those classes; who but those who are presently unprotected and without a contract. That is one of the reasons why graduate students on this campus are actively unionizing. We can no longer be subject to administrative actions which are calculated to further exploit our labor. The faculty has a union contract which it must defend and, the faculty has another duty: they must defend the educational integrity of U.B. It is not enough that you reject the committee report and proposal; a meaningful evaluation of the four course load must be initiated, so that a justifiabled exception might be made for this University’s four course load. We can resist, and that resistance can be started here. We can resist the attempts of the SUNY administration to remold the University into a fortress against legislative attacks manned by experts on budget defense. That defense is costing us the very character of our University. It is time we, faculty, graduates and undergraduates, rather than acting rashly on foolish memoranda, deliberately and thoughtfully assess what we need educationally and act upon what is common to us all, our University, in which we teach and are taught.

The Spectrum , Wednesday, 1 December 1976 Carter’s promise Amnesty is still in question (CPS) Now that the presidential elections are over, it is only a matter of time until President-elect Carter makes good on his campaign promises of unconditional pardons to draft evaders. The National Democratic Party platform called for a “full and complete pardon for those who were in legal or financial jeopardy because of their peaceful opposition to the Vietnam War, with deserters to be considered on a case-to-case basis.” However, Carter said in September that he would not be bound to the party platform and would refuse to give pardons to draft non-registrants or to upgrade less than honorable discharges. Earlier in his campaign, Carter stated that what you did was right. “amnesty means Pardon means what you did, whether it is right or wrong, you’re forgiven for it. And I do advocate a pardon for draft evaders.” Stuart Eizenstat, Carter’s Director of Policy and Issues, claimed that the new administration’s policy is “not one of unconditional pardon for deserters” but would instead depend on several criteria, one of which is whether or not the man was deserting because of opposition to the war or opposition to the Army itself. Such a condition would be determined by a hearing officer, Eizenstat said, and offering a hypothetical case he added that if the man had deserted from the middle of a key battle and had led to the death of twenty people, he probably ought not be pardoned. — that. .. July amnesty conference attracted only 40 workers. In September, 60 people attended a conference in Des Moines, Iowa where the speaker was a minister from the University of Iowa. President Ford’s amnesty program does not meet with approval by NCUUA which has called the program a demonstration of the power of the President to upgrade the military discharges as well as the futility of issuing amnesty or pardon given has discharges.” Arizona legislature participants in this program an especially difficult time by passing a bill which prohibits clemency discharge holders from getting publicly funded jobs. And in Madison, Wisconsin state law requires county veterans affairs officers to have honorable discharges. Those who will be paying particular attention to Carter’s treatment of the amnesty issue will include a reported 8,700 convicted draft violators who have served sentences, paid fines or gotten suspended sentences. Ford’s program excluded these men and it is not clear whether or not Carter will pay closer attention. The largest group of draft violators are non-registrants who face up $10,000 or five years in jail. Neither Ford’s nor Carter’s program include them. And then there ate the '792,000 veterans who hold less than honorable discharges. These men include the non-deserters who refused orders to Vietnam, who talked questioningly about the war or who even organized radical newspapers. The fate of these men is as unclear as President Carter’s focus on Futility the issue that simply will not go away. Said Carter in Yet, the National Council for Universal and August, “Where I come from, most of the men who Unconditional Amnesty (NCUUA) is questioning went off to fight in Vietnam were poor.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

This is absurd and also a reactionary backlash to the supposed charges of grade inflation. As I view these years in retrospect, grade inflation has been a myth at U.B. for several terms.

That’s what happened to the basketball Bulls on Saturday night at the Memorial Auditorium they lost their season opener to Niagara 88-85 in double overtime, after Buffalo had a four point lead with 42 seconds left in regulation — time. Buffalo coach Leo Richardson was disappointed with the loss, but was nevertheless proud of the way the Bulls played. “We were overly prepared,” Richardson said. “Our kids made some mistakes because they wanted to win so badly.” One of those mistakes was on defense. “I was overaggressive sometimes,” said junior Larry Jones. “I was really trying to play good defense.” As a result, Jones, along with teammates Eric Spence and Ed Johnson, fouled out, and Buffalo was whistled for eleven more fouls than Niagara was. In the decisive second overtime period, the Purple Eagles scored all eight of their points from the free throw line. Bulls fail to score Neither team was able to build more than a five point lead throughout the game. With about eight minutes remaining, the Bulls came down-court four consecutive times and were unable to get a shot off, while Niagara scored six straight points to take a 62-58 lead. Richardson called time-out and settled the team down. Slowly Buffalo came back, and when Spence tipped in an offensive rebound with 2:25 left, Buffalo found themselves back on top, 68-66. Sam Pellom and Spence each added one free-throw to Buffalo’s lead, and with 42 Niagara’s Phil seconds left, Scaffidi fouled Spence, seemingly locking up the win for Buffalo. Spence didn’t score however, and Niagara came back quickly. Skip McDaniel cut Buffalo’s lead to two with a fifteen foot jump George shot. Buffalo guard Cooper, who had an outstanding night, unfortunately made a bad pass, and the ball returned to Niagara. Hanley, Mike who finished with 26 points and a game-high of 18 rebounds, hit a short bucket with eleven seconds to go, sending the game into overtime. Niagara had a very similar chance to win the first overtime. The Purple Eagles led by four with 40 seconds left, when Vern MEDICAL CENTER outpatient abortion clinic offering services and counseling. an Allen came to the freethrow line for them. Allen missed, and the Bulls scored as Cooper drove down the lane, pump faked and then scored, with 23 seconds remaining. Then, Allen made the mistake of shooting for Niagara, since he had a near-layup. He missed, Buffalo rebounded and then Cooper was fouled with four seconds left. Cooper hit the first free throw, and then Niagara coach Dan Raskin called time-out. “We didn’t talk about free-throws,” said. “We just Richardson assumed George would make them.” Cooper swished his second free-throw to send the game into another extra period. Top scorers last overtime period The seemed anti-climatic. Hanley and Scaffidi each hit two free-throws before Buffalo could score, and Niagara never relinquished that lead. Cooper led the Bulls with 28 also picking up seven assists. Pellom had 19 points and ,17 rebounds. Sam Robinson was the only other Bull in double figures, with eleven points and a dozen rebounds. Looking back, Richardson felt “the best team didn’t win.” Jones also felt that way. “We played great,” Jones said. “If we play like that the rest of the year, we should have a good season.” Richardson was especially pleased with the team’s defense, except when they switched to a zone. us,” he said. “Last “The year, we played the zone because we had to. This year we don’t. 1 don’t like the zone.” The Bulls also rebounded and boxed out well. “How many second shots did they get?” he asked. “It was negligible.” The Bulls will be off until Monday, when they travel to Holy Cross.

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

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

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

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

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

Ahmed spoke of the problems encountered by the poorer nations of the world in their attempts to get what he termed, “Their share of the pie.” He described the expression third world,as mere,ly a current vogue. In the past this area has been to as: non-western, referred developing, backward, exist Arabia. The Suitable definition The soft spoken Pakestani allowed semantic deference, however, to the term and sought to suitably define the third world.

But he stressed that policy is carried out by western governments without the consent of their citizenry. He feels that the interwoven economic and social complexity of twentieth century society causes actions in any sector of the world to manifest themselves in every other sector. “All of you are part of the third world and all of us are part of you.” Only an export platform? the activities of western governments must be curtailed if the poorer nations are to become self determinant and industrial. American foreign policy, which American industrial supports interests, has created a new constellation of power in the third The Sub Board directors created a minority advisement board to offer input for future activities planning at a meeting last Thursday night in Norton Hall, The committee will be made up of one person representing .the Student Association (SA), the Graduate Student Association (GSA), Millard Fillmore College (MFC) Student Association, and one representative of the student bodies of the three professional schools. The proposal passed was a substitute amendment offered by Sub Board Vice Chairman Mitchell Zoler. The original proposal, submitted by SA President Steve Schwartz, called for the institution of minority coordinators for each Sub Board division. Backers of the original proposal said they needed more time, but their motion to table discussion was narrowly defeated. Board member Steve Cohn, who supported the original proposal, said Thursday’s action was a response to the minority boycott of UUAB events. He felt that the people involved with the boycott the minority coalition should be involved in the discussion. Cohn said the issue.was one of cultural domination. Tyrone Wilson, who was in charge of last year’s UUAB minority programming, felt that in order for Sub Board to encourage minority interest and involvement in programming, minorities must be able to see the fruits of their labor through control of funds. Wilson, who attended the meeting for SA Minority Affairs Coordinator and minority coalition leader Ed Guity, said the coalition basically■ wishes to separate minority and white programming. Questioning the necessity of the minority programming line. Sub Board Treasurer Arthur Lalonde asked Wilson if last year’s UUAB music chairman had been more cooperative, would the initial need for the minority line have arisen. Wilson said no, but added that since there had been one already is looking for its reinstatement. Sub Board Chairman Jon Roller, who opposed the original amendment, said Sub Board can do an admirable job with its present structure and that he believes in “the abstract concept of the - University.” Other business attended to at the meeting included introduction of Ora Clark', an undergraduate, and Roy two new board members Smuckler, a dental student. Guhlow resigns Roller announced that Linda Guhlow, head of the family Planning Clinic, was resigning effective December 31. There was a recommendation to draw up a job description for the position by the middle of December to assure a smooth transition. Treasurer Lalonde said in his report that all Sub Board projects are meeting expected revenue levels except Htlws. Ricky Yaverbaum, Publications Division Director, explained that revenues for h'lhos have fallen far behind and that an issue next semester has been canceled. Amherst Division Director Joyce Levin discussed setting up a satellite ticket office on the North Campus which Sub Board would partially fund. Estimates on the renovation of Fargo Cafeteria needed to accommodate coffee houses have been set at S4400 and SI 2,000 depending on where the wall is constructed.

John Devine. Assistant Regional Director of the Office of Human Development for the Department of Health, Education and Welfare (hEW) addressed'a room of about 50 people to open the two-day conference sponsored by the Multi-disciplinary Center for the Study of Aging and the Faculty of Law and Jurisprudence in cooperation with the Buffalo - Legal Counseling for the Elderly Project Devine emphasized that the rash of editorials and. television specials concerning the elderly are not solutions to “what we all know arc deep-rooted structural problems in our society. Instead. Devine suggested that a reorganization of social services for the elderly, and a change in social perception would help curtail neglect ol the aged. Recently. a series of investigations on home health care facilities in various communities was undertaken, and a book of recommendations was compiled by III VV. Also, studies have been made on nursing homes, legal services for the aged, and the Community Action Corps, all of which aim to aid the elderly.

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

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

The challenge this year is much because it claims to have no basis in educational matters. There is little doubt that the rearrangement of semester credit hours recommended by the Faculty Senate Committee on Contact/ Credit Flours was a response to financial pressure within SUNY.

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

We considered before any change is made. should be lhankful that we have made it through "So far, nothing has been taken into consideration except the educational prejudices of a few administrators and faculty," This time, some very trying times and have survived them. Originally, and Thanksgiving Day plain all that has been considered are the financial requirements of SUNY. Either way, the University is quickly spiriting away the liberal old-fashioned giving of thanks was an integral part of innovations of the 1960s which nourished the humanities and the most Americans’ lives. Webster’s New 20th Century social sciences and this time with the help of those who presided Dictionary defines thanksgiving as; “A form of over the innovations. It continues this University's ominous drift to the words, as a grace, giving thanks to the Divine Being.” It defines Thanksgiving Day as; “a day set apart by educational right only this time, in the name of austerity. executive Authority for public thanksgiving and Praise to Cod.” The tradition of a thanksgiving ritual and day can be traced back to the arrival of the Pilgrim-laden Mayflower which anchored at Plymoth Rock on December 21, 1620. After they had landed, the Pilgrims immediately gave thanks to Cod for Vol. 27, No. 39 Monday, 22 November 1976 bringing them safely to America.

Monday, 22 November 1976 The United States has been a Blessed country favors which he has bestowed upon them. In the past, most Americans were not reluctant or too busy to say prayers of thanks. In recent years, too many Americans have thought themselves exempt from saying thank-you. Even if you do not believe in a Higher Power, you can still show your appreciation to Nature or the Nation, by a sign of gratitude on Thanksgiving Day. Many of our greatest leaders have been men who were not afraid to pray and thank God for benefits and even for trials and tribulations. Some of these men were: George Washington, Ben Franklin. Thomas Jefferson, Abe Lincoln and Dwight D. Eisenhower. Their great humanitarian achievements and their ethical use of the governmental power given them are partially the results of their spiritual endeavors. Many of us have been in some very dangerous life and death situations and if, for nothing else, we can give thanks for making it safely through. Most of us have loved ones and friends, who have given us warmth and joy. and many of us have excellent opportunities for u good education and a well paying position. We have roofs over our heads, clothes on our backs, and let’s face it none of us are starving. We are the citizens pf the freest and most abundant country on the face of the earth. I am sure that . We take a look at what we have, we will come to ibc honest conclusion that we have good reason to give thanks. Sure, there are many wrongs that need righting, problems that need solutions, goals that need to be reached, and with His help and our dedicated efforts, there will be more justice, problems solved and goals attained. Please have a Very Warm and Happy Thanksgiving! “Oh Supreme Being, we thank You for our great land and people, we thank You for the freedom and abundance, we thank You for the men and women who have given their best to this nation and to us, and Lord we especially thank You for those who have fought, fallen and been wounded in combat, for the defense of our nation, lives and freedom.” Prayer hy Mr. James Stoyiurjj U.H. Vets Association �Guest Opinion by PODER of the Third World Students Association After 30 years of intense struggle, Spain was forced to grant Puerto Rico a rather large degree of autonomy in 1897. However, Spain lost the “Spanish-American War” and was compelled to “cede” the island of Puerto Rico and other colonies to the U.S. in 1898. In July of the same year U.S. armed forces occupies Puerto Rico, dissolved the Parliament, and established U.S. rule by force. Puerto Rico has been a subjugated colony of the U.S. over since. Today U.S. government has exclusive control over Puerto Rico in questions concerning citizenship, foreign aftairs, immigration and emigration, foreign trade, currency, the postal service, radio and TV, and air and maritime transport. Any decision made by Puerto Rico’s Supreme Court may be overturned by the federal courts of the U.S. All laws passed by the U.S. Congress automatically apply in Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico has no voting representatives in the Congress. One of the niost brutal examples of U.S. colonial all defense, domination of Puerto Rico is the fact that 12 percent of the best arable land on the isalnd is exclusive U.S. military property, including nuclear weapons and guided missiles bases. A military personnel estimated at approximately 50,000 strong Is stationed permanently in Puerto Rican territory. This formidable military presence serves to protect and advance U.S. interest in Latin America (The U.S. invasion of the Dominican Republic in 1965 was staged from these bases.). U.S. monopoly controlled industralization of Puerto Rico has distorted the Puerto Rican economy, completely destroying the agriculture and forcing over 40 percent of the population to migrate to U.S. looking for jobs. An oppressed “internal colony” of two million Puerto Ricans has been created this way in the mainland (20 percent of the Puerto Rican nation is crowded in the slums of New York City). In, 1970 60 percent of the potential work force of Puerto Rico was either unemployed or underemployed and 81,8 percent of the population earned less than 3000 dollars a year. U.S. monopolies’one billion investrtient, however, pays aboslutely no taxes from a period of 10-17 (and up to 30 years in some “special cases” enjoys a profit return of more than 28 percent; gets the full investment back in less than four years; and are free to make a clear profit for up to 13 years thereafter. At the end of the 17 year tax exemption period, many firms close down and either leave the island currently 85 percent of or reopen under another name Puerto Rico’s economy is U.S. monopoly controlled. Unemployment and miserable incomes brought by U.S. monopoly control are accompanied by inadequate or more than 40 percent of the deteriorating housing population lives in houses that do not meet health and safety requirements. The cost of basic goods is 25 percent higher than in most American cities. The colonialist solution to the plight of unemployment and poverty has been a U.S. financed campgian of forced sterilization to 35 percent of Puerto Rican control the population women of child bearing age have already been sterilized. The case of Puerto Rico illustrates quite clearly how locking countries of the Third U.S. imperialism operates World into an endless cycle of underdevelopment. The Puerto Rican people have a tradition of struggle for national independence. Since the days when the island ; — — - belonged to Spain Puerto Ricans have fought to cbntrol their own destiny. In the 50’s the Jayuya armed rebellion took place under the leadership of the nationalists headed by Albizu Campos. The national guard crashed the rebellion in blood. In response to the repression an attack against Truman and Congress was organized by the nationalists in the U.S. to publicize the aims of the U.S. troops in the island. Five Andres Figueroa Cordero, Ervin Flores, nationalists Juanita Lebuon, Rafael Cancel Uiranad, and Oscar Collazo have been since that time in prison, the longest held political prisoners in the Western Hemisphere. This struggle is today rapidly growing, rooted among the .people and strengthened by the converging of workers’ struggles to organize in unions and to strike with the liberation struggle. Strikes among public employees have been bitterly - - fought to gain unionization and better conditions. Within the private sector labor struggles like the cement workers in Ponce which lasted almost a year have been mounting. University students have also waged struggles. In Rio Piedras students and faculty supports the public employees in their strike. The University was occupied by the police, closed temporarily, and right now 21 students are lacing trial. Because of this U.S. repression is intensifying, ranging from armed right-wing terrorists to U.S. intelligence and repressive agencies. However, people struggling for their independence are bound to be triumphant. The Puerto Rican people are struggling to defend the interests ot Puerto Rico and to put an end to the ruin, the economic stagnation, the unemployment, the poverty and exploitation, the military and atomic bases, the crisis of the country’s agriculture, the genocide, the illiteracy . . In commemerafion of the invasion of Puerto Rico on November 19, 1493, formally known as the discovery of . Puerto Rico. This is the last issue of The Spectrum until after Thanksgiving recess. The Spectrum will resume publication a week from Wednesday on December 1. Until then, have a happy and restful vacation. the Baseball s free agents: liberated discontents by John H. Reiss Campus Kdilor When baseball arbiter Peter Seitz ruled last December that pitcher Andy Messersmith was a free agent, he did more than simply liberate a discontent player. Implicit in that "decision was the right of any player to play out his opt ion. Messersmith had signed a one year contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1974. When Messersmith requested a no-trade contract for the ’75 season, the Dodger barked. Under the rules of the contract game Messersmith could either sign with the Dodgers or play unsigned for an amount the Dodgers saw fit. Messersmith chose the latter route but embarked upon a course of action that none of baseball’s twenty-four owners predicted. Messersmith tested the clause in baseball’s rule book which maintained that a player who toils one year under contract and the subsequent year unsigned should be liberated from any obligation to his team. ' Foul! It was very clearly stated in the rules that a team could renew an unsigned player’s contract for one lull year after which time the player is entitled to be declared a free agent. In fact, no player had ever attempted to take advantage of the rule before Messersmith. It had been common practice for a team to renew a contract for an indefinite number of years. Seitz however interpreted “one full year” to mean 365 days, not eternity and was promptly freed by the owners for his wisdom. So self Seitz simply upheld a decision which should have been explanatory. “Foul,” cried the owners. “How can we now keep our prisoners from running off to the big cities?’ they wept. “How can we keep our boys from being kidnapped, making the rich richer and the poor poorer?” they sobbed. Their argument was simple. How can there be justice in feels a system in which a player can leave his employer if he can no longer he is underpaid. How injudicious that a player be bound for life to a team that he never chose to join The owners all painted a black portrait of what was sure to follow. Players would (lock to New York and Los Angeles, the glamour cities ol the Major Leagues. The tew rich teams would corner the free agent market, leaving the penniless multitudes choking in their dust. The new precedent would portend a stampede of the most talented athletes to teams that are already established winners. The owner of the Montreal Fxpos, a team that had only once finished out of last place in a division dominated by the Pirates and Mets, declared the new rule would destroy baseball’s delicate competitive balance. One certain method of preventing a cascading flood ot free agents is for teams to pay their players appropriately. The Detroit Tigers, a losing team in a glamourless city, had all their players signed by early summer. This was achieved simply because the Tigers were generous and smart enough to spend a few thousand dollars today, rather than lose their players to the competition tomorrow. The theory of the few rich teams tapping the well is misconceived. Witness the National League Last. Phil Wrigley ofWrigley Gum and Gussie Busch of Anheiser Busch own the Cubs and Cardinals respectively. The Mets and Phillies each have a huge following and a bankrole to match while the Lxpos (multi-million dollar offers to Dave Cash and Gary Mathews) and the Pirates are well to do owners. Greed Owners of teams in other divisions are not substantially different financially as a whole, and include such wealthy barons as Atlanta’s Ted Turner, New York’s George Steinbrenner and McDonald’s Ray Crock. The best team argument has been completely disarmed. of As Friday all eight free agents who had signed on with new teams did so with clubs that had less successful records than the player’s previous team. In the midst of the owners’armageddon last December, Mets’ pitcher Tom Seaver offered the most poignant assessment of all. Said Seaver, “The owners don t need protection from the players. What they really need is protection from the other owners.” In view of the enthusiasm with which owners have persued free agents thus far, Seaver’s point seems to ring true. The only instrument that keeps an owner in constant fear of losing a player to free agent status is the greed of fellow comrades in arms. They holler rape when one of their birds leave the nest, yet wait like vultures with teeth sharpened in anticipation of the same misfortune striking their neighbor. All the owners need do to put an end to their predicament is simply refuse to sign any free agents. If all the King’s men joined hands and agreed not to sign any serf who may betray them, there would be no point in gaining free agent status. In the event that the freebirds were suddenly spurned by the clubs that presumably should be salivating at the opportunity to sit in their presence, baseball would soon find itself with very few free agents to contend with. The star would be in a position tantamount to that of a .200 hitter who gains his freedom only to find his services not required. Inevitably, he pines for his old contract with his old team and wishes he’s never left. The problem of course is that no owner would trust his fellow comrade farther than he could spy on him. It is not unlike playing Risk and the guy next to you promises never to attack you. Confident of his honesty and good intentions, you maneuver your men appropriately. The opportunity eventually presents itself for your friend to view an attack on you as a perfect strategic move. He then blasts you ott the board, finishing the game with all the power. Nothing would prevent an owner from slipping a few bucks under the table and coming away with a fist lull of free agents at a considerably reduced rate. The other owners would publicly castigate the traitor and then engage in a price war for the services of the remaining players. The system of exile would never work because owners could never trust the intentions of each other. In other words, owners need protection from themselves. Monday, 22 November 1976 . The Spectrum .

Th is the one and only Star T Shatner program, again To the Editor. I have silently been reading the ongoing debate in The Spectrum that William Shatner’s appearance at this campus recently seemed to have triggered. Actually, with the theme “Where are the Intellectuals,” it brought to the surface the underlying social and academic discrimination and prejudice of the “super-intellectual” against those not afraid to admit and enjoy being average. I wish the more “exclusive” members of this University would end arrogant, conceited attacks on aspects of University life that exist either for of the soul, or entertainment, enrichment enrichment of the body instead of the mind. Admittedly, people like Mr. Watson have made enormous contributions to society and deserve praise. Yet, isn’t Moe Howards contribution of bringing laughter and happiness for over 40 years to millions of children and adults around the world also deserving of praise and recognition? Knowledge and education are gainpd in places other than textbooks and classrooms. It should be recognized that for a well-rounded education a human being should be exposed to many aspects of the real world, as well as different people and activities. Unless, of course, your goal is to, computerize the mind and soul so it can be closed and programmed in accordance with the desires of intellectual elitists. For those of you who enjoyed Mr. Watson, great! Enjoy it and be happy. Don’t worry, because those of us who enjoy living life as much as studying life won’t put you down because of what you enjoy.

Nor would 1 want to infer from what is said here that I feel that either Minorities or Women have achieved satisfactory progress in their movements toward adequate and equal opportunity and status. I emphatically do not. Nevertheless, the figures quoted in The Spectrum of November 17 do not support Dr. Kelly’s contention of a “significant gain for Minorities and Women” during the period 1970 to 1975. While SUNY’s total faculty was increasing by 9%, the Feminine component of that faculty was increasing by 12%, the Black component by 24%, and the Hispanic by over 200%. This is not as much progress as most of us would have liked, but I think it does a disservice to the intentions and efforts of the many who have contributed to this progress to label Affirmative Action a failure. That there is much more yet to be done is, of course, obvious. E. W. Doty Murderous terrorists To the Editor. 1 am writing in response to the articles on Southern Africa in November 17 The Spec trum. The Spectrum supposedly printed these articles to show the relevance of third world nations in our lives. It is easy to see, however, that The Spectrum, in siding with the black terrorists in Southern Africa, is openly implying that it wouldn’t mind a race war in Africa. How can a newspaper that is always denouncing violence of any kind possibly want such a thing? Obviously by printing these articles, The Spectrum implies that it agrees with their content. The article on Apartheid claims black wages are less than one tenth of white earnings. It effectively fails to mention, however, that the wages of blacks in South Africa are higher than the wages of any other blacks in Africa. It also fails to mention how the legally elected government of South Africa has set up hospitals and schools for blacks, more modern than any others for blacks in Africa. I also would like to give rify best wishes to the Rhodesian government in its effort to protect the Rhodesian people (black and white) from the murderous terrorists who are attacking Rhodesia. John Van Gelder Page eight . The Spectrum Monday, 22 November 1976 . �Religious percentages Retain S/U system To'the Editor. It would appear that the Jewish Student Union has difficulty admitting an error (if Roy Schmukler is a representative of that august body). His response to my initial letter concerning the Calendar Committee and Religious Holidays neither addresses the specifics nor the substance of my letter. Let me state them again: (1) The protest about Yom Kippur this (1976) year not being an observed holiday came far'too late for anything to be accomplished. If JSU wanted to make the point for next year, that should have been openly stated. (2) JSU cited that this University has a 20% Jewish population. This is WRONG! The Jewish percentage is 1 1.8%. Catholics are 38.4%, Protestants 17.4% and No Preference 17.9%. I called the JSU and strongly asked that they correct this figure error in the public press. Since they did not or would not, I did. (3) The percentage of a population in terms of religious preference should not be the deciding factor in terms of calendar holidays observed by this school, since regardless of the percentage, the religious observance is as real for the 1% as it is for 50%; such action is proven. For Roy Schmukler’s further information, I was a part of the deliberations in 1974 concerning the Spring coterninous celebration of Easter/Passover Break. The main then and now is that when this occurs, it must do so to allow 4 weeks of classes after returning from that Spring Break. This is the guideline Student Association “demanded” in 72-73 or some time in the early seventies. So if the Easter/Passover-Spring Break do not coincide in the next few years, it will be for that reason, or that Easter and Passover do not fall within the same week. While JSU may have been the initial group to protest the issue concerning such a coinciding break, it was at my initiation that the Calendar Committee met and invited representatives from the campus ministry to solve this issue. The Calendar Committee has promised to plan the Spring Break to coincide with Easter/Passover when the above mentioned limitation is met. Again ] say, perhaps it would be more appropriate to have off Yom Kippur instead of Columbus Day. But we must be ever aware of all for regardless of the religions and their holidays for percentage of the religiouns and their holidays regardless of the percentage of the population, it is just as meaningful to the persons involved! To the Editor I would like to point out my disagreement the proposed S/U and P/F policies presented by the Faculty Senate (The Spectrum, Nov. 3, 1976 and The Reporter. Oct. 28, 1976). Presently, the S/U option allows a student to take a maximum of 25 percent of his/her total load at U.H. ’S/U. The proposed S/U will limit the students to 25 percent per semester. Occasionally a student may be registered for four (4) courses, drops one, and is left with three, one of which may have been intended as S/U; however, with 3 courses left one course represents 33 percent of the semester total. What happens then? In other occasions students may have completed most of their require major courses and is taking a major course, a distribution and two electives. The proposed option will limit the student to one S/U course; however under the present system, the student could take his non-major for S/U as long as the 25 percent for the total load for the degree is not exceeded. Second, the P/F system will not encourage students' to register for courses unless they ate required by the major. This system will penalize students if they fail (F), but will not reward them if they pass (P). According to , The Reporter (Oct. 28. 1976), the P like the S and the U, “will not be figured into a student’s Quality Point Average, but the grade F will be averaged together with students’ other grades” (letter grades). Unfair! A P/F f will lower the average, but a P will not raise the average. Third, I would like to know how many students exceed (or abuse) the 25 percent limit on S/U grades? How many petitions are filed with the Committee on Degree Requirements to waive excess in order to graduate. Students are instructed that the S/U option is available the first four weeks of instruction, some professors extend that dateline for various reasons. Where is the abuse? The present S/U system motivates students to explore distribution, electives and College courses without fear of grading. It afford an exposure to an educational experience without fear of strenuous cpmpetition or the academic excellence expected in major courses. I hope we keep the present S/U as is! No — with - - No professor should be allowed to put any (4) pressure, real or subtle, on any student-who misses any class due to observing a religious holiday. I’ll be the first to demand action against such a professor if I gape! Rod Saunders Campus Minister Inalienable freedom To the Editor. Rod Saunders has asked us in the past why we want to follow our religion and remain Jewish, now he asks why we want to observe our Holydays. Do you have something against us? Why shouldn’t we be allowed to have classes off for Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur? I know full well about the fight against the Calendar Committee to get off for Passover-Easter/Spring recess —, I instigated it. Let me remind you that at that time, TWO YEARS ago, I brought up the question of getting off for the High Holydays, but they (the Calendar Committee) ignored me then, so we must use pressure tactics now. As for your figures on the percentage breakdown-, I don’t give a "damn for your figures, because we all know, as well as you, even if it is convenient not to believe it that many studertts, of all religions, refuse to answer that question on the data update form. And as for your Roman Catholics and Protestants, let me point out to you what one of It does your own ministers wrote to Dr. Ketter. not matter to me what you do (in regard to getting off Passover and Easter), because all good Catholics — can observe their religion after hours. May I remind you that Judaism is not an after hours’ religion. Just by holding classes on these days we are being discriminated against. Professors continue on with new work regardless of the day, and because of this, students are intimidated into attending classes. You only with say that professors give make-up work administrative pressure, and students are still penalized for missing classes. We DO NOT WANT classes on our Holiest of Days (it would be easier for all in the long run). WE DO NOT WANT to have to something choose between our religion and classes you do not have to do. We are forbidden to do certain things, we are forbidden to go to classes, and yet if we want to keep up with our work,,we must - - go- NOT WANT CLASSES on ROSH HASHANA AND YOM KIPPUR, this situation is intolerable and can not continue. Just as you get off Christmas which (conveniently?) comes out during winter/(Christmas) vacation and Easter Sunday.

May mi Academic Advisor — — Steven l.aub Sciences and course load Editor's the Our Turks, Moldavians, Druids To the Editor In response to Ora Clark, Frank Watson and “Concerned Students:” Your demand that UUAB establish a separate line for programming of minority activities seems perfectly logical to me. 1 think that the University’s Afro-American students should definitely have the final say in how their student activity money is spent. The same goes for our Arab and Middle-East students who, 1 am sure, feel that they are not getting programming which represents . . I am addressing the current and very interesting controversy surrounding The Spectrum's position with respect to military advertisements. 1 am not convinced that editorial discretion is a of, my First Amendment rights. On the violation contrary, 1 accept it as both unavoidable and actually necessary it a periodical is to evaluate issues from any perspective in an honest and consistent manner. For this reason 1 prefer to diversify my own information sources rather than accept any editor s claim to “balanced reportage.” On the other hand, 1 think it is fair to ask that a periodical like The Spectrum have its policies stated and debated. It is in this spirit that I write. My feelings about the military are the result of four years of personal experience. I was in the Air Force when the role of the military was lyider severe criticism. When asked how he could fly an aircraft and release its deadly payload on flesh below a pilot might reply: “1 just fly airplanes,” or “I just follow orders.” And so they did.

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

It should immediately be noted that the recommendation of this cofnmittee does not preclude other alterations in baccalaureate degree programs.

Options considered The committee considered, and rejected, a redoing of the daily class schedule, which would have extended the average class period length.

The level of competition that Stale University of New York at Buffalo intercollegiate teams can perform at. was of major concern One feeling was the committee. should that the University perform at maximum capability in major sports, and derive funding to support such a program. The other major attitude held was that Buffalo should determine their level of competition by available funds, not prospective funds. competition means Top sports (including Division I football if indeed it returns to this campus) or possibly Division II (which the UB hockey team participates in). At the present time, however, the NCAA is for revising their criteria membership and participation in Division 1 and II. According to committee member Edwin Muto, Coordinator of Men’s Athletics, the criteria for membership in NCAA Division 1 may well, be beyond the means available at UB. An example of this would be the grant-in-aid policy that may be deemed effective by the NCAA. approve the they Should statement that each school participating in Division I spofts must provide student athletes with a set. minimum number of grant-in-aid awards, then Buffalo would automatically be excluded from Division I, due fo the SUNY system’s policy that grant-in-aid programs are prohibited. In that to regard, the NCAA could possibly determine the highest level of competition that UB could seek. Fee stability Another consideration area of the committee concerns the use of student activity fees for supporting the athletic programs. At the present time, a certain portion of the fee major to is taken out for athletics. The fee itself is under the immediate of the Student auspices with other Association, authorization coming from other sources, for example the Student Affairs Council. One proposed response is that "... Buffalo campus officials should engage in serious discussion with the SUNY Board of Trustees concerning the possibility of amending present regulations governing the control of the student fee funds, to provide for stability in funding of. at least, student support of the athletic program.” * long term guarantee (three or lour fees usage is years considered to be one of the major considerations in UB obtaining long-range funding programs, and regaining its football program.

The Spectrum . Page elewe|^ �Club active despite budget Sportspaige by Paige Miller Sports Editor The college basketball season is about to begin. I can hear the cries of “Dee-fense” and the thunder every time the home team scores a basket in a close game. 1 can’t wait to feel the excitement and the tenseness and to shout “Let’s (id. Buffalo at the top ot my lungs. Isn’t it grand? If James Naismith hadn't invented basketball back in the gay 90’s, someone else surely would have. Basketball has become popular worldwide and here in the United States, it’s impossible to imagine a park or schoolyard without a basket. And those individuals who become especially attached to basketball find it’s nearly impossible to break away. After a tough loss at Syracuse last year. Bulls basketball coach Leo Richardson said to I me, “This is a hell of a way to make a living, isn’t it?" I agreed, but job. type it of up for another give Richardson would doubt if by Bruce J. Meyers Spectrum Staff Writer The University of Buffalo’s Erie tied bowling club the Community College for second straight time this year on Monday, due to the strong consistent bowling of Ross Van Dooser who averaged almost 200 the game. Although pins a University of Buffalo won only one of the three games a point is also given to the team with the most total wood (pins) at the end of the meet. Erie Community College was defeated by a single Big Four doubleheader in this category, 2821 to The excitement all begins again on Saturday night at Memorial pin 2820. Auditorium, when Buffalo takes on Niagara in the first game of a Big Four doubleheader, beginning at 7 p.m. (It’s Canisius vs. Buffalo State student tickets are one dollar at the Clark Hall in the second game ticket office.) The Bulls have not beaten Niagara since Richardson took over the coaching reins four years ago, and the team has been preparing tor the season for more than a month now. Guard Donald Scott said that all he was looking'forward to was the Niagara game, and then confidently predicted not only a win over Niagara, but that Buffalo would win the Big Four title as well. ' The attitude on the team has been vastly improved since last year. Scott said that the team is much more a unit this year. Another example is guard George Cooper, who has been acting as at) "assistant Assistant Coach.” Cooper showed his class by attending a meeting ol Students for the Future of Athletics, even though he is a senior. > - « First public showing Friday night, the basketball Bulls played an intrasquad game (which was open to the public). Sam Pellom. the nation’s leading rebounder, showed why he earned that title by pulling down 25 rebounds. He also led everyone in scoring with 26 points. Fd Johnson, a transfer from Albany, scored 26 points, and Eric Spence, when he was shooting free throws, looked very good. Spence blocked three shots, pulled dqwn 15 rebounds and played strong defense. Richardson was “75 percent pleased” with the team s performance. “We had too many turnovers and I don’t think we boxed .out well, but that’s my fault,” Richardson said, noting that he hadn't spent too much time on boxing out in practice. “Our shot selection was pretty good,” he continued. “The Blue team got behind and they played good defense, then the White team got behind and they played good defense. But we can’t wait to get behind before we start playing good defense.” Snyder attacks, gets attacked On Thursday of last week, the Bulls held their third annual pre-season luncheon at the Statler Hilton. The event was nearly sold out. The highlight of the luncheon was supposed to be a speech by Buffalo Braves owner Paul Snyder. However, Snyder didn't speak about Bulls’ basketball instead, he talked mainly abou the Braves.and how he earned his first 1 8 million dollars. He did take the time to criticize almost everyone, including himself, for not doing enough to support athletics at this University. (Snyder was a member of Buffalo’s wrestling team from 1953-57.) Snyder failed to say what everyone should do to further support athletics here. However, we’ll be watching you. Snyder, to see exactly whjit you do for athletics at this University. Or was your sole contribution the story of how you earned S1 8 million?

Despite University the fact that the of Buffalo has not Erie Community in defeated either of these two contests, they have still proven themselves to be quality bowlers.

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

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

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

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

Everyone else donation SI.00 — EVERYONE WELCOME M the past four years, Cavage is presently engaged in a lawsuit against this University and the Student Association (SA), with regard,to the year-old controversy over SA Record Coop. He has charged unfair competition His suit contends that the existence of the Record Coop is “unfair” since it is able to use free Norton Hall facilities which are paid for by the state. The particular Cavages store involved is located across Main Street, just off University Plaza. Cavage said Monday that sales for his entire operation were fifty percent higher than last year at this time, and that he expects sales to double over the next two year period. The opening next month of a new Town of Wheatfield store, Cavage said, would mark “the firm’s initial penetration of the Niagara Falls and Canadian markets.” Plans also are being contemplated for the first Cavages in the Rochester area. NFG reports record profits National Fuel Gas Distribution Corp. (NFG), the only supplier of home heating and cooking gas in the Western New York area, Monday reported record breaking profits of $9,384,000 or $3.61 per share for the year ending September 30. The previous high was in 1972, with just over 19 million. The profit rise was 17.3 percent higher than last year’s, and revenues rose 15 percent. The company has a rate increase request of 11.3 percent and it was approved by the Public Service Commission (PSC) a total of 29.3 million dollars. The PSC is the state body charged to regulate the actions of all utility companies in New York State. A staff analysis of the rate increase request recommended that only 2.5 percent now and one percent next year was justified. chairman Alfred Kahn is a former employee of ATT, need not follow the staff recommendations and has in the past often overruled its staff and granted NFG higher rate boosts than were deemed necessary by the PSC examiners. The NFG rate request has been the target of general protest in the Buffalo area, and even sparked an attempt at a bill withholding ‘action’ last spring. Terminated during the summer, the action and its accompanying publicity had reportedly tripled and quadrupled complaints to the Buffalo PSC.

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

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

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

But because of gloomy pre-election speculation on voter turnout by all the leading pollsters and pundits Peter Hart of Washington predicted that less than half the American electorate would bother to grace any majority turnout was bound to be the polls considered a coup and a positive sign for the electoral system. The media and campaign bigwigs were exuberant over the heavy ballotting, gloating that the American people were not as apathetic as portrayed and were truly concerned with the election results. “Maybe turning out was a way for the public to get back at the pollsters,” ventured Gray Davis, an aide to California’s Jerry Brown. By playing up the unexpected showing, dismal as it was, the moguls employed a trick that .Jimmy Carter taught them last winter, while campaigning in Iowa and New Hampshire as a political unknown.

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

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

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

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

If an objection is to be raised, it should be against the brain that decides to strike the nail, not against the hammer itself. The only countering argument to this is to say that using any violence anywhere in the world to effectuate our foreign policy is illegal and immoral. However, thinking like this is, in its own way, as one-sided and shallow as the other extreme of Strangelovian illogic, and potentially as dangerous. The lessons of history and the fact that we are, and always were, living in an uncivilized world should at least sustain the fact that force may at one point in the future possibly be necessary to achieve some objective which is in the best interests of preserving some general notions of freedom and justice. To deny this is mainly to fall back on simplistic, flower child-esque logic, haunting visions of the draft and students’ natural aversions to the military in the rejects the idea that the situation should be created where this kind of tragedy might be allowed to occur (e.g. military training). However, if this line of thought is followed to its logical conclusion, no military training leads to no military, and in light of the realities of the present world, we cannot afford that luxury. If I have not as yet addressed myself specifically to R. Gilbert’s letter, it is because it is so filled with faulty logic and nonsequiturs that it is a worthless argument. Vague notions of Nazis and imperialist wars were employed to argue the extreme, but never successfully related to the stated problem of whether or not to allow military advertisement. At one point, Gilbert stated, “In addition, it must be remembered that other factors entered into The Spectrum's decision: that students have traditionally opposed U.S. military activities; that there exist many other student periodical outlets for the military to use; that income from military advertising is very small, and would not significantly increase student subsidies to the paper.” In this preceding statement, the first point is without proof and without explanation of how it relates to this present UB student body, the second point avoids the issue completely, and the third and fourth points are opportunistic and specifically avoid the question of what is right in favor of what will be more economically profitable. I think that in executing an exclusionary policy which The Spectrum has against military advertising which can even remotely be argued as being contrary to the First Amendment freedom of speech (if not in fact, then in spirit), that person must take on a heavy burden of proving and rationalizing why this was done. The Spectrum has wake of Vietnam. avoided the important questions and mishandled a It is a fact that the deaths of Lynn McClure and freedom which it too easily takes for granted.

In many cases violating everyone’s First Amendment freedom. that judgement will be hasty and stupid. Hopefully, not too much damage will result. Mr. Simpson — — Perry Silver Page eight. The Spectrum Friday, 19 November 1976 . �by Bill Maraschiello Arts Editor It's a rare and uplifting thing to see a production of an acknowledged "great" play that doesn't attempt to coast by merely on the play's greatness, but which sees that quality is something that must be reproven and improved upon constantly. The Studio Arena Theatre’s current production of Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman is such an event: it's simply the best production I've ever seen at the and one of the finest I've ever seen anywhere. The overshadowing presence of Willy Loman, who can lay as valid a claim any to being the greatest creation of any American playwright, almost obscures the totality of Miller's achievement, not the least feature of which is that Salesman is much more than Willy, prodigious though that might be. Somehow, Miller was vouchsafed a visionary glimpse into the weaknesses and the failures of all of us, into our self-concealed desire to turn aside from the hard truth of our own failings for the convenient and the illusory. No other play has ever laid so bare the shackles of the American Dream, or shown such sympathy and love for those trapped in them. Chamber Drama Salesman then is really an ensemble show or it should be. It could be, and often has been, turned into a star vehicle, a pitfall which director Warren Enters and his cast have avoided. Enters has previously shown a special gift for dealing with life on an intimate level; he displayed in an earlier SAT production of Miller's The Price much of the insight he reveals more strongly here. The cast works together, with a unity of purpose and a high level of — expertise. The play itself provides a simple yardstick for taking the measure of anyone playing Willy Loman. When Willy's wife Linda tells their sons that "In his way, he's a great man," we can see whether Willy has displayed that greatness. It's a common greatness,, one which we all share some of, as we do his equally great folly; as that common greatness binds us to Willy, that common folly breaks our hearts. When Pat Hingle, as Willy, shuffles his massive form onto the stage, he drags in a hollow shell "tired to the death," existing on a few small sparks of will, barely visible among the embers of his burnt-out life. He shows us an everyday guy who doesn't want an exorbitant amount out of life, but has tried to get it by feeding himself with his own lies and delusions; he's eating himself alive. He shows ua an ordinary "working stiff" and makes us see that a "stiff" is a corpse. — — An original classic Hingle's Loman isn't a particularly novel one: it shares some space with the great Lomans of Lee J. Cobb and Frederic March, in television and film respectively. But what does make Hingle's work so memorable is that he's refused to make any assumptions about a role that would be easy to "standardize." His Willy is completely thought out, scrupulously honest, and painfully human; not a starring performance, but the kind that makes an actor a star. He is literally a knockout: his power is literally stunning. Hardly less exemplary is Joan Lorring's Linda, who combines a consuming love for Willy, a growing despair at her helplessness to alter his fate, and blistering rage at her self-centered sons in a display of remarkable range. Of all the Lomans, only the restive, rootless Biff is able to survive his encounter with the truth, and Richard Greene plays out that struggle most effectively. As his brother Happy, Marcus Smythe is occasionally somewhat overbearing, but stilt as soulless as his name, glossing over every emotion with a shallow smile. The rest of the cast is perfectly fitted, especially Ralph Farnsworth as the strutting capitalist cock. Uncle Ben; Pat McNamara as Willy's only friend; and Robert Tennenhouse, in a clever, enjoyable bit as a waiter. SAT's Death of a Salesman doesn't rely on any indulgent pyrotechnics of stagecraft, story, or acting every genture and inflection is there out of necessity. Yet it's a resounding success; a magnificent play, superbly acted and directed, that no one within reach of the Studio Arena should let themselves miss.

Convention Center Staff The name of last Monday's Office of Cultural Affairs presentation at the Studio Arena Theater evoked, for me anyway, hearts and flowers and sugarcakes.

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

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

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

Kate to Deeley: "You had no friends" how much does this tell of her resentment, or Deeley's fear of Anna's arrival? How clearly can the past be remembered?

It them does, ultimately, lead to a metaphyical question of the nature of the past and how memory affects your own reality. — — — — — media-managed life, when Deeley manages to recall most of his own past in terms of his seeing the film "Odd Man Out," and in a sly argument between Deeley and Anna consisting entirely of song lyrics. — Bare necessity This is without question a crushingly difficult play to sucessfully, and everyone concerned with this production has basically delivered what was necessary. But Ward Williamson's direction, and the performances of two of the three principals, fade in and out of effectiveness like a distant radio broadcast. Old Times has to be approached, above all, with clarity of intention every moment in it is fiercely purposeful, and everyone involved has to be aware of the purpose of each moment. That's what makes the play difficult, and the awareness of that purpose is at some times transparently clear, at others befogged and uncertain. The most effective member of the cast is Vicki Harris; of the three players, she's the most surely attuned to the tidelike feel of the play, its between human needs and the inhuman ways they must on occasion be satisfied. When I think of Kneland Stickles' Deeley, I'm reminded of Tom in Williams' The Glass Menagerie a poet trapped in a warehouse." Deeley is the reverse, a stock clerk trapped in a poem, a matter-of fact pedant who often fails even to turn his head as subtleties whiz past him. At some moments. Stickles' — ; straightforward approach touches straight to the bone; his range of approach, though, is really too narrow, with the result that he gives alternating impressions of dead-on instinct and stiff insensitivity. Technique and well-controlled mannerisms are important to a perforamnce, but Irene Burns —Fliss and meticulous scrutiny and with both mind and heart working at full capacity. If you want to know what Old Times is "about," let me first refer you to the symbol used by its publicity a word balloon saying simply, "Pause." The play unwinds largely in short, often brusque phrases with cold, steely, civilized edges. If that makes the play sound like a duel, and the dialogue, like weapons it is, and they are, much of the time. The occasion is supposedly social: a visit by Anna (Irene Burna Normandale) to her former roommate Kate (Vicki Harris), and Kate’s husband Deeley (Kneland Stickles) at their English home. Before her arrival, Deeley and Kate converse in blank phrases, bounded by silences. Words and silence swing back and forth like a pendulum, or the ticking of a clock the first sound heard in the play, in fact. They speak, and it merely marks the seconds. — — — — Fullness of time A pattern begins to emerge in fragments, several patterns. The Prodigal Sun But abstraction isn't Pinter's goal. What his characters are grappling over is love; his paradox is that they're taking a shallow, petty path to the profoundest of emotions a heartless route to — the human heart. If Pinter has covered his play's purpose with such a hard shell, it's because its counterpart in life is equally hard-shelled, if not more so. Old Times is scarcely more difficult to arrive at the truth of than any actual human interaction; the task is hard, but really less so than it seems at first. What it revealed was that it seems difficult because we so seldom try to discern the truth in others. By being so spare, it strips the camouflage away from the many meetings which fill up our lives. Like any perceptive artist, Pinter knows what he wishes to single out to display. It's the nature of its basic what he chooses that makes it a foreignness strange sight. But there's much to be seen: Pinter throws light on the small, absurd redundancies of living (Deeley to Anna in his bedroom: "We sleep here. These are beds.") He also nods to the — Normandale lets us see only the techniques; we're watching an actress, not a character, when we her. The life of Anna is missing; she's so self-conscious that the question of Anna being a shallow person, and not a shallow piece of work, never raises itself. Sitting in front of me at the performance I attended were two see couples — upper-middle-class by their dress, very intelligent by the snatches of their conversation I overheard. They were very similar to Kate, Anna, and Deeley, and at least one of them left saying, "That was so true it’s almost frightening." The mirror was being shone in their direction, and the light that it reflected, though distorted, was still there to be seen Old Times continues tonight through Sunday in the Harriman Theatre Studio; performances begin at 8 p.m., and tickets are available at the Norton Ticket Office and at the door.

The most exciting event on the Coffeehouse's fall schedule takes place tonight at 8:30 in the Katherine Cornell Theatre in the Amherst Campus' Ellicott Complex, when Gorden Bok, Ed Trickett, and Ann Mayo Muir combine their talents for what promises to be a superb concert. Gordon Bok is a familiar face to Coffeehouse fans; anyone who's seen him in his previous sold-out Buffalo appearances, or heard his Folk-Legacy Record albums. Will remember this sailing man from Camden, Maine. As the original first mate of Pete Seeger's Hudson River sloop Clearwater as a great singer and guitarist with a style all his own; as a performer of traditional songs, and one of our best writers of traditional-style music as all of these, Gordon is remembered and respected. Like Gordon, Ed Trickett's trade is outside of music; he's a psychologist who's still found time to develop into a pleasing singer and guitarist, and an expert hammered dulcimer player; to play at a multitude of concerts and festivals, including one in Buffalo last spring; and to record his own fine, Folk-Legacy album, The telling Takes Me Home. Ed's material ranges through the best of the traditional and modern ; repertoire. Clear as a bell Less well-known as a soloist, but no less talented, is Ann Mayo Muir, beautiful, whose crystal-clear voice and way for finding the heart of a song delighted listeners of the two Folk-Legacy albums on which she and Bok collaborated. She accompanies herself on a small, bell-shaped 12-string, designed especially for her. Gorden, Ed, and. Ann have played together privately for years, but only last 'year did they make an album with all three together Turning Toward the Morning, also on Folk-Legacy. The overwhelming response to that record eventually led to a sold-out tour by the trio, followed by a resumption of their solo careers.

The name itself Led Zeppelin conjures visions of Iron Butterflies, lighter-than-airy heavy metals and everlasting hard-ons. Ledzep made their debut late in 1968: "Jimmy Page's new group, to be called the New Yardbirds, will feature on their upcoming album a graphic idea stolen from John a phallic Entwistle (who's bass player was he) photograph of the Hindenburg exploding, with the words "Led Zeppelin" superimposed ■"Oh yeah, I heard this before yeah, like when the Yardbirds played their Anderson Theater gig in it was called "I'm New York in '68.

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

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

Houses saw the beginning of a real fascination with keyboards on the part of bassist Jones, increased knowledge of harmonic structure on the part of Page, and the end of Plant's voice as we knew it. A few successful attempts at weirdness and beauty ("The Grunge" and "The Rain Song," respectively) made up for the apparent aging of the Zeppeling mystique, and the Houses was listenable, far more listenable than its successor. Physical Graffiti. A double album, Graffiti carried the band's "experimental" phase to annoying extremes. Entire songs were devoted to lousy guitar riffs, acoutic material was simply not present, and Jones and Bonham had begun to sound as if they had been under styrene cement therapy. "Led Zeppelin ? C'mon, you don't wanna hear that crap. Anyways, they not worth listening to as far as I'm concerned. Besides, if you wanna hear Zep, you oughta be listening to their first album, not this new stuff. Anybody knows that; a band's first album is always their best anyway. As long as you're up, why don't you throw on some reggae ..." Presence, Led Zeppelin's seventh album, is also their worst (or was up until a few weeks ago) and, naturally, went plantinum long before it reached the stores. The band had achieved huge commercial and critical notoriety, was selling out sports arenas throughout the globe, and had ceased to give a shit. The typical reaction of a band in this situation (that of getting back to one's roots) was carried out to the fullest, and Presence contained no more keyboard craziness, acoustic guitars or any semblance of intelligence. As a matter of fact, the band had gone back further than their roots, for Presence, despite similarities to Led Zeppelin / (crudeness of production, steamroller riff songwriting), was worse than anything then being put out by the many hard rock bands who got their basis from the Phallic Four. "Presence by Led Zeppelin? What're ya kidding me? No, of course I don't have it! I've never owned a Zeppelin album and I never will. U hope she doesn't look in that cabinet) That's kid stuff anyway here, take another hit. No, no fucking Led Zeppelin, I told ya, so don't bother looking! Oh, as long as you're up, get us some more wine and turn over that Wailers album, would ya?" One can't help asking oneself (can one) just what all this is leading up to. Well, quite simply, your humble reviewer was a Led Zeppelin fan for quite a while, and the anger provoked at seeing their long, painful demise needed an outlet (a common syndrome among rock critics these days.) Once upon a time. Led Zeppelin was actually a good band their material was . well it was heavy metal with a little depth. They were electrifying in concert, playing with the energy of the Who, the precision of the Stones, and their own distinctive, unearthy style. Hell, they even did acoustic sets in concert, as a sort of auditory intermission to the high-volume stuff. The Song Remains the Same (it most certainly does not) is their long-awaited live album, the soundtrack of a concert movie filmed mostly at a 1973 Madison Square Garden show. I was at that concert, and upon walking out, decided that I did't like Zepplein anymore. Buy the record and see why. No? Okay, it's boring, sloppy, strained, unimaginative, pretentious, you name it. Twenty-five minutes of "Dazed and Confused" may sound good if you are there watching it (actually it looks better than it sounds violin bow and all) but it makes for an annoying side of music. "Stairway" has been butchered, its only saving grace being the piano and bass pedal work of John Paul Jones. Jones, incidentally, is the only member of the band worth listening to on most of the record, and then only when he's playing keyboards. Jummy Page does add a few interesting fills and snatches of ideas here and there, but is basically jerking off for most of the album. Speaking of jerking off, there is about ten minutes worth of drum solo by John Bonham ("Moby Dick"), and if you ever wonder what that sounds like, try putting your heacHnside a revolving clothes dryer filled with bowling balls. Oh yes, Robert Plant's voice' (in case you haven't caught the drift of most of this article) is burned out beyond belief. So it goes. Like I said, go out and buy the record you'll see what I mean. —John Duncan — — — — Prodigal Sun �RECORDS Baez, Gulf Winds (A & M) It was less than two years ago that the fortunes of the once mously successful Joan Baez had sunk to an all-time low. Not only her records stopped selling; she was also broke. As a gamble, she corded her first pop album Diamonds and Rust. Instantly upon lease, it won the praise and acclaim of everyone. Not only did it fickly go gold (.5 million units sold), it gave her dying career some jeded life. She decided to tour for the first time in years, and due to e venture's huge success, a well-crafted live album, "From Every Bte," was released. From there to the dream like Rolling Thunder (vue with Bob Dylan, perhaps her biggest idol and influence; the reer of Joan Baez was completely resurrected, and she was as big, if it bigger, than she ever was. It was shortly after the Revue ended that Joan Baez became the rst artist to sign with Portrait Records, a newly established branch of olumbia. Since her contract with A&M had not yet expired, she stilly wed them one album. Unlike most artists who finish up contracts ith anthologies and greatest hit packages, Joan's last disc for A&M lay well be the best she's ever put down on wax. Gulf Winds is the first album that was completely written by Joan. Her other records had some of her compositions, but never more than a cattered few. Here, with every track a Baez composition, a sense of Inity pervades that was lacking on her other efforts. The songs seem nterrelated and all pertain to some aspect of Joan's life. Her ielationship with Dylan seems to come up time after time. On "Time Is passing Us By", she reminisces about their careers: Well it was fun for the first few years, playing "legend in our time” fact that we drifted apart in our prime And we haven't got too much in common except that we're so much alike And / hate it, for though you're a big part of me. but our time is passing us by. The debut track, “Interviews," is a terrible introduction to the unsuspecting listener. Simplistic music backs up idiotic lyrics, (although I'm sure a Dylan-ish message can be extracted from cryptic lyrics such as, "And there was pendulums and sand and Coors cans sitting in the ground 50 million years ago"). Also, in the Dylan tradition, Roscoe West talks, rather than sings, these intellectually insulting words. I hope the band is trying to be funny on the following cut, "Cheap Perfume," because the light-hearted country honky-tonk mood, of this song cannot possibly be taken seriously. They retain this Various Artists, Live at C.B.G.B.'s (Atlantic) ;lt The following questions are taken from the revised 10th edition of the Rock and Roll Bar Examination.

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

Her acoustic guitar is the only accompaniment on Gulf Winds, and adds the perfect backdrop to her powerful singing. tour song is an auto biography Summing up, Gulf Winds has no noticeable flaws. Baez is magnificent throughout. I've never heard her sing better and her lyrics are steadily improving. Gulf Winds is really her first genuine album as a complete singer-songwriter. If properly received, it should also be Joan Baez' most powerful musical statement -Steven Brieff Prodigal Sun record. tone on "Keep It In The Family," but manage to produce a more pleasing (or at least tolerable) song. What might first be mistaken as a crazy eccentricity on the album as a whole is actually a product of abnormal musical and studio effects. Background vocals are reverberated, as if recorded in a cathedral. Fairly mundane melodies are transformed into a sort of countrified Crack The Sky sound through the use of tinny electric and hard-strumming acoustic guitars, overbearing use of cymbals, and energetic bass lines, leaving many songs .. On "0 Brother!," Joan's feelings about Dylan pour through. It eems to have been written either during the Rolling Thunder tour or ight after it ended. Her lyrics are intensely personal, and though they eem rather cutting and sharp toward Dylan; her real love for him is •mnipresent. Witness the last verse: The album's The Alpha Band (Arista) A few thousand Western New Yorkers (and probably a few Canadians) got a taste of this new, unknown band when they opened for Lynyrd Skynyrd a few weeks ago. Judging solely from the review of that concert which appeared in The Spectrum, I would guess that The Alpha Band was less than a sensation. However, an article in the Phonograph Record Magazine reflected a different attitude toward this new band; album reviewer Bud Scoppa attached some importance to this first effort. The reason: the omnipresent influence of the musical God himself, Dylan. Alpha guitarists Steven Soles and T-bone Burnett were linked with "Hard Rain" and the Rolling Thunder Review, respectively.

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

Too bad, however, that The Spectrum can’t UUAB funds be spent on commuter related separate editorial and news stories. Also the editorial Why not a special coordinator in each area contained one misleading statement. The editorial or commuters? Why not schedule most activities stated that the Jewish Student Union was funded by during the day instead of at night? Surely the Sub-Board s It isn’t, although they fund their publication Ari. But then they also fund The jfommuters are one of, if not the most, oppressed groups on this campus. They rarely get their money’s Commuter Viewpoint. The issue is not a publication fworth of their $67 and they have little for minotiries. If it was, I would support that. Frankly, The Spectrum editorial makes little representation in SA despite the Commuter Party victories in September’s elections. (Mr. Guity has sense in places. On one hand we are told that charged that the Executive Committee is made up catering to special interests is bad and on the other mostly of commuters.

For that matter if the minority people and we lost the vote, the fact that it was so close took Spectrum want to talk about society’s oppression of almost everyone off guard.

But a few years women, Jews, Catholics, have suffered oppression ago there would have been no debate over the issue. Italians, Poles, Irish.

But we did get some real the future. commuters elected to the Senate, we got commuters Those of us who opposed this proposal are not on the Executive Committee and Finance racists, are not supporters of apartheid, and are not Committee.

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

Room 219 To the Editor: I was glad to read the letter sent to The by Jeff Lessoff, Division Director of UUAB. At first offended by his personal attack, I soon realized that he is as much a bureaucrat as the assholes at Sub-Board I. His wholly inaccurate account was an attempt to have me look like the ‘bad buy’ and Sub-Board I the ‘good guys.’ If Jeff would ponder his situation, he might discover that trying to make Sub-Board I look good has been taking up a lot of his time recently. You see, at least Sub-Board I doesn’t really like UUAB so if that’s what the people at UUAB told me you’re the director of UUAB, a little ass kissing is good politics. I didn’t have that problem as chairperson of the Visual Arts Committee. When my committee realized that we had less than one percent of UUAB’s total budget, there was no need to kiss anyone’s ass we’d already been dumped on! When Mr. Lessoff says, “$1,274.00 is not chicken feed,” he’s"right it’s pig shit! When he said he, “personally asked if he could bring student exhibits to this school,” he forgot to mention that during my interview, he was the turkey that claimed to be, “one of the people who didn’t want a gallery.” It was during that interview that the $1,200.00 budget was revealed to me. I had all I could do to keep from bustin’ out a few windows. But I decided to stick it out for a'while at least long enough to see if maybe all this wasn’t just a bad dream. When Jeff said that I, “was very enthusiastic and he’s right and willing to bring in art exhibits . and there are a lot more I’m still enthusiastic people like me on this campus that want a good art gallery here. It pisses me off however when Jeff says, “Very few people realize that there is a gallery on this campus,” and he doesn’t bother to explain why. And how can he honestly say Sub-Board I is making a “last effort, this is a probationary year,” when he knows damn well that Sub-Board I just doesn’t give a shit about an art gallery? He mentions that my quitting “has further hurt the Visual Arts program.” Nothing could hurt it any more than what UUAB and Sub-Board I have done in the past few years my quitting was a way to get all this bullshit out in the open! It’s all too obvious that a gallery can’t survive in the atmosphere Lessoff and Sub-Board I have created. The Gallery, in the past, has put together some fine exhibits, has received much needed support from the community, and was gaining recognition. The real problem is, that while Sub-Board I and UUAB are paying a number of students to be ushers at their movies and concerts, they refuse to provide enough funding for the Gallery to pay one person to sit and watch over the exhibits. It is obvious that Lessoff has no concept of how much funding is required to put on even student shows during a school year. Sub-Board I was presented with very detailed and coherent proposals for a minimum budget ($3,000 to $4,000) and they ignored them Spectrum — — — - - - . — — — totally. It is a disgrace that a university this large has no Buffalo State College provisions for an art gallery has more than one gallery. It is a disgrace that the works of art that belong to SUNYAB are scattered all over no one knows exactly what we’ve got in our collection. It is a disgrace that when our graduate students need space to exhibit, a degree requirement, they get free space from galleries in Buffalo and at Buffalo Stale, but get nothing from their own university. If any of the bureaucrats from Sub-Board I and UUAB really want to know what it takes to run a gallery, even with support from students and the community, there are many qualified people ready to discuss it with them. It doesn’t appear as though we have reached a point where something constructive can be done. Every year the budget for Gallery 219 is cut and then the assholes from Sub-Board I and UUAB complain that the Visual Arts Committee isn’t effective. All I can say to Mr. Lessoff, UUAB and Sub-Board I is, if you are going FUND IT! and stop to fund an art gallery playing your stupid games. — - — — William J. Bernhard Friday, 19 November 1976 The Spectrum Page seventeen . . 1 \ i �! by David J. Rubin and in cooperation with other campus organisations, has organized a series of pre-Thanksgiving programs to put students in the Thanksgiving mood when the holiday comes up next Thursday. The first of these is Turkey Trot, ah annual event on campus which again will be taking place outside Clark Hall, weather permitting. In this race, turkeys from all across Western New York and the Niagara Frontier compete in a two-mile race around campus. Following the race, all the birds are coralled, packaged and marketed by Swift’s Premium for Thanksgiving Day dining rooms, but the winning turkey is specially prepared and served at President Robert Ketter’s Thanksgiving dinner. Second and third place turkeys are sent to Acting President Albert Somit and Vice President Ed Doty, respectively. To make the race just a little bit more interesting, the losing turkey becomes the property of Food Services, which is invited to use the bird for anything in any way it wants. SA Speakers Bureau also has some big plans. Peter Proudfoot, descendant of Chief Sitting Bull, has been scheduled to give a talk on “The Story and Significance of Thanksgiving.” If that alone isn’t enough, world famous chef Julia Child will give a lecture and then lead a workshop entitled, “487 Ways to Stuff Your Turkey.” wisdom, My friend Radar told me last Tuesday over his breakfast of hot dogs and beer that his favorite part of Thanksgiving is waking up early to watch the giant Underdog balloon on the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade on TV. Sb much for Radar, hot dogs and beer. But there are other aspects of Thanksgiving Day which are slightly more significant. Recalling that first winter way back in 1620 (that’s 356 years before the Bicentennial), hanging out with the folks watching football on TC, and eating turkey for the first time since last Thanksgiving are just a few. It seems that Thanksgiving and perhaps the Fourth of July are the only two holidays which Americans really get into as Americans, but since we get off from school during Thanksgiving, it gets the number one ranking in the student polls. Not surprisingly, the popularity which surrounds Thanksgiving permeates the campus in the final few days before everyone goes home to Long Island, or South Buffalo, or Rochester, or wherever people go when the dorms close. As a result, Student Association (SA), in its infinite To the Editor. article, and so it would have been difficult for me to make any allegations toward IRC. Either you did not read the article, or you are reading in something that is not there. Your accusation concerning the headline is correct. Looking back, I see that both the headline and leading paragraph do give the incorrect impression that only SA is being investigated, and for this I apologize. However, the article does go on to say that the Task Force will investigate This is in response to the accusations made by Mr. Lee Perres in his letter to the editor of November 15. I am the author of the article in question, and I feel most of your accusations are unfounded. First of all, the comment regarding the pocketing of money at certain University functions was a direct quote from my source, who is a member of the Task Force and whose name appears in the complaints concerning any campus organization. I article. If his statement is inaccurate, I suggest you suggest that you read a bit more carefully before contact him rather than accuse me. Second, the making accusations of bad reporting. name “IRC” does not appear anywhere in the David Ziffer Grading in Chemistry was an error in performing the experiment, 4.93% to be precise, and as a result I would have expected a I would like to take this opportunity to express few points to be deducted from the lab. Instead, it my view of the chemistry department in reference to turned out that I 2 points were deducted, which is the Chemistry 101 course offered and taken by roughly half the value of the lab, while the rest of many freshman here at U/B, including myself. This the lab was correct. If so what? he made ah letter is not aimed at ridiculing, as that would defeat error in the lab and should be penalized is your its purpose. Rather, it might be viewed as a highly reply, let’s examine it further. Suppose for one necessary, however premature, constructive moment that the error had been relatively large, say criticism. What follows is in regard to Chemistry 20%, for reasons which I won’t go into. Taking into 101, so don’t confuse it with the chemistry account that a 4.93% error is deductible by 12 department as a whole as I will use the term loosely. points, as logic would indicate, we deduce a grade of It would be wrong for me to talk about the whole roughly 23/25. Can you see the absurdity in this chemistry department as I know little of its policies. grading system? So, you still can’t see my point? As it turns out, the grading and testing system Let’s take one final look at that problem 23/25 is of the chemistry department is relatively insensitive certainly not what the student would have received and, as many have already been noticed, extremely as a grade. Instead, he is given a grade comparable to rigid. If you question the validity of that statement, the student who received a percentage error of less try interpreting the 44 percent average for the Chem. than 5%; this may be true due to the feeling that 101 student on exam two of this semester. There is after a certain percentage error is reached it becomes serious doubt that well over half of these students unwise to deduct any further points. So, do you lack the intelligence to pass a course such as honestly feel it is fair to give the same grade to a student who was relatively close (4.93% error) to the chemistry, however technical it may seem. I really don’t believe that the main problem lies actual value as compared to a student who was well in the “hardness” of the tests, but rather in the way off from the actual value (say even 75%)? in which the system of grading is approached. To be Just for note, 1 would like to say that there have specific about the conflict let me touch upon the been discrepencies cited in the marking of labs. One area dealing with laboratory experiments. An teacher will give full credit, while another will get experiment is performed, observations are made, partial or not credit from his teacher for precisely calculation carried out, data recorded, and this is the same response. But it wouldn’t be fair to blame compiled and written down on the lab manual sheets this on the teachers (or whoever is responsible for for the particular experiment. It is then handed in grading the tests and labs) as they are only human the following week at recitation and graded. and quite obviously are subject o making mistakes The purpose of any lab, as I see it, is to now and then just as students are. There is a point introduce the student to procedures through the use somewhere in there . . . oh, yes in regard to test of laboratory apparatus to determine certain two, I think it would have been wiser for the properties and/or dimensions of chemical substances, instructors to have given more credit to problems on how they react, why they form, what they form, and of the exam where only careless mistakes part perhaps even when. The student then derives certain such/ as multiplication or addition errors were values, which may include such things as the freezing present. point, molecular weight, molarity, or any other such In conclusion. I’d like to add that if the goal of properties. I’m sure you understand and agree with, the chemistry department in regard to Chem. 101 is to some extent, what was just written. Now I will to create a reduction in the number of pre-med and use a specific case to bring across my point. After engineering students, as it is a required course, it is performing experiment 10; which deals with succeeding very nicely. I noticed that my particular titrations of acids and bases and determination of lecture class was much thinner after examination the equivalent mass of an unknown acid, I received a two than before.

But the number one attraction on the agenda for the upcoming Thanksgiving week is a speech by SA President Steven Schwartz on “What We As Students Have To Give Thanks For.” Inside sources say that Schwartz has had his ghost writers working on a speech for the last month, but that only five minutes worth of material, mostly bad one-liners, has actually been written. Speakers Bureau Chairman Janet Evans said that Schwartz has repeatedly asked her to change the topic of his talk, but she said that she feels the topic is of utmost importance to the University community, and will not change it. Other sources close to Schwartz say he is working on two fronts; giving thanks for Charlie’s Angels and for Bagel Bros. Gobble, gobble. Guest Opinion Taskforce Page eighteen There’s lots more too. Tomorrow night (which, coincidentally is the night of the full moon), SA, in cooperation with the History and Theater Departments, will be reenacting the Salem Witch Trials, with hangings scheduled to begin at 9:30 p.m., and burnings at the stake getting underway at 10 p.m. Honored guests for the trials include Nolan Johannes, Jon Roller and Carl Cavage.

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

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

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

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

Anger and disappointment marked the speeches of several participants at the annual meeting of the Association of \meriean Medical Colleges, which ended yesterday in New York City. 1 hey challenged assertions that unqualified blacks were being admitted by medical schools and defended the need for special programs to raise black enrollments. “Part of the movement that is now directed against minorities is to reaffirm the right of the privileged classes to have the most direct access to medical school." said Alvin I .

He has already coordinated several exhibits in Gallery 219 and is in the process of “building a permanent art collection.” When asked about possible further budget cutbacks by yUAB, Parr preferred to be optimistic, noting, “If they see I coutd do well with S1200, I could do a lot more with S5000.” Judy Trieble, last year’s chairwoman, submitted a ten-page proposal to Sub Board and received a budget of $3000, considerably less than what she had requested. She went to the budget hearings in August and claimed that no one had even read her proposal. Instead, Sub Board insisted Treible justify the receipt of any money since Gallery 219 doesn’t turn a profit and is not very popular among students. She said, “Visual arts would never make it in a popularity contest,” and added that the budget hearings were very frustrating. This hostility coupled with the attitude that “no one was interested” had a big effect on Treible’s decision to resign last spring. Questions concerning the visability of visual arts on campus have • surfaced following the resignation of Gallery 219 Chairman William Bernhard last Monday. The resignation, which was attributed'to budget cuts that befell the Gallery, has prompted an unofficial investigation the concerning whereabouts of the University’s art collection and the non-existence of an Art Department-supported gallery. Gallery 219, funded by the University Union Activities Board (UUAB) Division of Sub Board, suffered a budget cut of about $1800 this year, leaving a total budget of $1274. Bernhard insisted that $1274 is not enough to run “a good gallery” in a University of this size. Each exhibit costs approximately $200 including installation, security and an opening reception. The funds allocated would only allow about six exhibits a year, excluding any traveling exhibit with the New York State Gallery Association. UUAB Division Director Jeff Lessoff said that UUAB supported Gallery 219 despite Sub Board’s opposition, who, 'at the August budget hearings wanted to abolish it because “it didn’t turn a profit.” Lessoff was “confused” by Bernhard’s resignation. “He knew how much money he was getting, and then decided to Could have been “The Gallery could have been a fantastic place,” she said, “if it weren’t for the political motivations governing the ” budget hearings. Art Department Graduate Assistant Roger Rapp was very disturbed about Bernhard’s resignation and the Gallery’s low budget. Questions concerning the Gallery, the department and the University’s art collection began to trouble him. Investigations by Rapp about where the resign Poor attendance and location has also hurt the Gallery, and Lessoff insists that UUAB has “no malice” towards the visual arts committee. He reports tnat he is seeking a better space for the gallery. “We’ve been cut this year, but that doesn’t mean we can’t do anything,” he said. Acting Gallery 219 Chairman Steve Parr took the job soon after Bernhard resigned and is “super enthusiastic,” according to Lessoff. Because of a small budget, he is hoping to bring more student exhibits to the gallery, in addition to artists from the community. “It’s not how much money ' collection with any one who has any information to offer.” When asked about the collection. Art Department Chairman Don Robertson said it is “broken up in many parts,” including some currently in President Robert (setter's house. Robertson said that lack of space to house the collection in its entirety keep it from being displayed on campus. Lack of space and “frozen funds,” said Robertson, is also the reason for there is no collection is located found only that a “partial list” is “floating around soTnewhere,” according to Tom R'andauT Coordinator of Facilities Planning. Randall, who has been active in the development of a gallery on Campus for many years, sent “a sketchy list of prints” to Peter Koffman (former professor of Art History) about years ago. Since then the list has hit many offices, “but no one bothered to hold on to it,” says Rapp. Shonney Finnegan, director of the Enthusiastic ■ University Archives, said she is “willing to compile information concerning the department-supported art gallery. Randau is also active in the search for a gallery and is currently negotiating to have 1301-K STATH STUDENT UNION HOARD the Haven Library on the North Campus he gallery space Although Randau and Robertson are not working together on this, the Department of Architecture, under Robertson’s guidance, is building models for proposed galleries. Several professors of Architecture are assigning students the problems and now, some 30 models for a gallery exist. converted to temporary The Architecture Department, which will be moving from Bethune'Hall in about a year and a half will become an adequate space for a gallery. “2Id has its limitations, and so does the 1st floor (Architecture Department in Bethune Hall),” says Robertson. .

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

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

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

The South Apartheid Institutionalized racism keeps profits high, whites prosperous extreme of is the most form racism, and is actively practiced in South Africa, Rhodesia and South West Africa (Namibia). Just as fascism's suspension of civil liberties and labor rights is best able to repress any organizing attempts by the workforce, so apartheid embodies the measures that most effectively prevent any black organizing, especially that of Apartheid institutionalized essentially an already apartheic state. The United Party, primary voice of the opposition, represents financial interests, desirous of slightly less restrictive labor policies, and therefore differed politically only on certain practical aspects of apartheid. Racist practices date from the arrival of the Afrikaaner (Dutch descent) colonialists, who seized land on the Cape and used slave labor,to farm it. Varying in degree through history, accompanied racism has generally though. South African imperialism, apartheid developed into a particularly African "intent" is that these areas someday become independant states. As described in another article in this section, the entire South African native population is eventually to be moved the rgces may be there, along with new industry, so that entirely separate Though Africans have in fact been uprooted and placed on the reserves, the reality is that African workers are essential to South African industry, and will never be replaced. For thi? reason the plan is an obvious farce, and serves to generally discredit the entire theory of separate which government officials so often development propagate. Apartheid is doomed, and the South African white • black workers. From laws that practically ban black trade unions, to "pass laws" that severely restrict the movements of the native population, apartheid has scored its greatest success in keeping black wages down to less than one tenth of white earnings.

Kissinger: Black!! — • The sudden U.S "concern" that there may be a "race war" in Rhodesia results only from its fear that a liberation war in that country would create a socialist state in Rhodesia, and/or would spread like a revolutionary tide to engulf all of southern Africa. This would endanger the almost $2 billion U.S. investment in South Africa, as well as the huge debt it owes to U.S. banks. This fear has resulted in very tangible U.S. and South pressure African on Rhodesia's government to hand over power within two years to conservative, the long and discredited black leaders who have years for collaborated with Rhodesian apartheid. [The K i ssinger-Vorster proposals for a two-year interim government that would draw up the future Rhodesia constitution seems doomed. See story on page Page ten The Spectrum Wednesday, 17 November 1976 of this section.] The U.S. government fears that, should the white regime not hand over power immediately and unconditionally, the ensuing war could result in the establishment of a revolutionary regime that would be inalterably opposed to continued apartheid and white minority rule in South Africa. Such a government would also be opposed to "neo-colonial" or sell-out black leadership that would not truly represent black aspirations for freedom and, as with some other black African governments, would be heavily influenced by Western businesses and governments. two Escalation and war One such example- is Zaire, which during the Angolan civil war channeled CIA funds to organizations within Angola, great.

Special Section �EditPrial Affirmative Action report The report released last week from the New York State Advisory Committee to the United States Commission on Civil Rights did not offer any great surprise in saying that SUNY has made "very little progress" in hiring minorities and women. In 1970 blacks made up 2.5 percent, Hispanics made up 0.3 percent, and women made dp 20.4 percent of the faculty positions, according to the report. The most recent figures made available to the Advisory Committee show that as of 1975 blacks make up 3.1 percent, Hispanics make up 1 percent, and women made up 22.9 percent of the faculty y in the five-year period, minority faculty increased by slightly more than 1 percent and female faculty by approximately 2.5 percent. And, expectedly, minorities and women are even less well represented in the higher administrative levels, and are lower-paying non-tenured in generally concentrated positions. Acting SUNY Chancellor James Kelly is unfortunately correct in noting that SUNY compares favorably with other colleges in the country and in saying the task of recruitment is made more difficult by the low availability of minority group members with academic degrees. But his saying that although the improvement is not dramatic, it represents a significant gain, is patently absurd. The import of the study is that so far Affirmative Action has been a failure. There aren't any easy answers, though. Administrators concerned with Affirmative Action speak in terms of baffling problems, not solutions. On campuses today there is greater concern with simply retaining a position, rather than who fills it. Department chairmen and administrators still manage to circumvent search procedures. Personal and institutional racism seem to grow in uncertain economic times, and more and more people are deciding that Affirmative Action is itself discriminatory. Somehow it seems there is still a world to be done simply in changing people's attitudes. Meanwhile, the Committee's recommendation to investigate the problems of Affirmative Action are thoroughly justified and should be initiated at the earliest possible opportunity. ‘hird World Week The Third World Week program which begins this evening deserves the attention of every member of the University community who has any interest in the emerging Third World Countries, and the events which are shaping tomorrow's world. The speakers, panel discussions, films and plays amount to one of the more impressive programs organized by students at this University in years. Our special section on Southern Africa is meant to coincide with the Third World Week events on that troubled region, and to add to the dialogue with the representatives of the Zimbabwe liberation movement who arrive here as part of the program. We urge all students to attend Third World Week programs. 1976 Rich Korman - — — — — Books . . Campus Rob Cohen Charles Greenberg Vacant Michael Forman . . Eric IMussbaum Eileen Schlesinger . . .

Mr. Amal A)-Ghad was offended by the cartoo'n depicting Arabs “in a way that can only be described as repulsive.” To back up his argument, he utilized the repulsive image of an American in a foreign newspaper, as a soldier shoving his machine gun in the mouth of a five-year-old Vietnamese child as being repujsive to us. He likened this image to the two Arabs standing over an American business . . . I agree with Mr, Amal Al-Ghad, but he neglected to bring the point one obvious step further. The image of the American soldier is repulsive to us now because we now realize our mistake. However, Mr. Al-Ghad neglected to continue his adequate analogy to hjs personal repulsiveness. The Arabs have made a mistake. When will they realize this and let the world start to work together in peace. Jim Destrafano Intellectual reply To the Editor In your editorial of November 10, 1976 you asked “Where are the Intellectuals?” Let me tell you they were in Room 147 Diefendorf where listening to Dr. James D. Watson’s presentation on Cancer and Viruses 600 plus of them. My question rather would be: “Where are the reporters of The Spectrum who publicize and cover William Shatner’s visit to this campus rather than that of Nobel Laureate Watson who together with Francis Crick has presented the world with the greatest biological discovery of the century?” The Spectrum was informed of Dr. Watson’s visit and of his press conference, but none of your reporters showed up. The Student Association Speakers Bureau — should study the example set by the Distinguished Visiting Lectureship Series of the FNSM (now the John W. Cowper Distinguished Visiting Lectureship) which, since 1969, has brought to the campus the likes of Linus Pauling. Fred Hoyle, George Wald, Bernard Lovell, Henry Fyring, Edward Teller and now James D. Watson for $2500-3000 per visit. Every one of these distinguished speakers has given four, lectures and interacted considerably with the University and Buffalo community. What did William Shatner give to our students and University for $4000? Probably as muph as Noel Neil (Lois Lane) and Moe Howard of the Three Stooges. Michael Ram. Associate Professor Department ofPhysics & Astronomy MFC’s continuing service To the Editor. I would like to thank Leslie Kane for her article on Millard Fillmore College in Wednesday’s The Spedrum and to correct a few remarks which appear to have been misrepresented. I have not heard evidence that learning does not take place in classes of more than twenty students. MFC has experienced staff reductions and, whether justly or unjustly, on occasion a-nd not \mlike other departments, has felt particularly hard pressed. Fortunately, to date, evening instruction has jiot been affected. What most needs saying is that the University can and should take pride in the higher educational services which it has provided to many thousands of adults in Western New York communities through MFC’s 50-year history. Fssential to this has been and continues to be the very active participation by many faculty and departments. The College and community are grateful for this support while encouraging and welcoming more. Eric Streiff Assistant Dean, MEC Rick Vazquez David J.

The Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc. Republication of any matter herein without express consent of the Editor-in-Chief is strictly forbidden. Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief the Calendar Committee for its planning of this year’s Easter-Passover/Spring recess. However, Mr. Saunders neglected to mention and ask the same praise for the student group that did the initial solicitation in this area and through whose specific efforts brought the matter to a head. This organization was the Jewish Student Union. Furthermore, the students of this University should be awa're that this matter had been discussed by the Calendar Committee concerning the Spring recess of 1976, changed to Spring 1977, received a tie vote (not passed), was then given to President Ketter’s’ office for a decision, and orriy then passed for Spring 1977. However, not necessarily for the following years. So Mr. Saunders, 1 also wish to add my CONGRATULATIONS (?) to the Calendar Committee for its outstanding “efforts.” 1 hope in the future there will be no need for any such editorials in thtit this University will consider the religious convictions of its students in the planning of its calendar.

Wednesday, 17 November Editor-in-Chief To the Editor The calendar and religion The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. 37 Repulsive images Mr. Saunders asked why the Jewish Student Union’s protest of classes on the Jewish High Holidays was made at a time far too late to have any real effect on the calendar. I assume he means the calendar year 1977-7$ or possibly even 1967-77. As for the calendar year 1977-78, the Calendar Committee has not as yet met. As for 1976-77, Mr. Saunders fails to realize that the Jewish Student Union has protested to the Calendar Committee in 1975, They also stated their protest in 1974. As a matter of fact, in 1973 a protest was made. I am sorry that my memory does not go further back on this matter. I hope this is sufficient to prove to Mr. Saunders that this issue was not a whim of the moment, but rather a serious grievance which has been presented for many years.

It took a third bus at 7:20 to bring the remainder of students home. One bus after an exam of this magnitude, and then only one more half an hour later, is ridiculous. Buses should be planned for such events in the future so as to alleviate mass hysteria and the possibility of injuries. Buses are an inconvenience as is; we put up with them out of necessity. Why is extra inconvenience also necessary? Finals are the week of December 15-21. Will we go through the same thing To the Editor. On Monday, November 8th between 5 and 6 approximately 1200 students had a Chemistry exam on Main Street. A large number of these students came from the Amherst Campus. Proof of this lies in the fact that there was a mob scene at the bus pick-up area. All these students had to vie for' the few seats of one bus. Needless to say, there were very few girls on the bus. This is the second time this incident has occurred this semester. One would think the University would be aware of the scheduling of again? these exams and plan to furnish extra buses. Of course, buses cost money but the inconvenience that many people experienced is intolerable; not to mention the danger inherent in such poor planning. p.m., Conference on Gary J. Gutenstein Sean Duffy international situation To the Editor. A conference on the international situation, war, revolution and the internationalist tasks'of the American people will be held Saturday, November 20, 1976 at Columbia University in New York City: What’s going on around the world? Where does the threat of war come from? What is the role of the U.S. and the U.S.S.R.? Of China? Of Cuba? And what are the duties and tasks of the American people in the international struggle against imperialism and oppression? These are not idle questions confronting only a few. They arise directly from the real events around the world that are shaping the history of the 1970’s. And just as those events affect the lives of millions, so the actions of the millions affect the course of events. ‘ , Debate over these issues is raging. It could not In the pages of newspapers, in the statements and actions of groups and organizations, in the ever more serious discussions among the masses of American people. These are life and death questions! The world is in great turmoil, with contradictions sharpening on all continents, in all countries. The very forces who through struggle stood together against the U.S. ruling class’s war in Vietnam in the 1960’s now debate, putting forward different analyses, different answers, different directions for actions and struggle. be otherwise. And now, just as then, the actions of the people can make a crucial difference in the struggle worldwide. There is an "urgent need to both sharpen and broaden the debate to put the different views and ideas and trends squarely and clearly before the greatest number of people. This conference on the international situation can be a big step in that direction. Through panels, workshops, speeches and debates, the struggle can go on in an open and lively manner that will surely attract great numbers of people concerned about these issues, probably thousands of people. That is how we are building this conference to clarify and focus questions, sharpen differences and pose answers and directions for all of us to wrestle with. It is not a conference only of members of the academic community, or experts, or only of Marxist-Leninists, or only of veteran activists. It is not a conference which will strive to come up with a “working unity” or to build a permanent coalition. The Ad Hoc Committee for the conference is working to make it a success: a conference like this needs to be very well organized, publicized and built for in order to make the greatest advances. We call on you to join us in building this conference, and in debating these burning issues.

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

But Hurry - Quantities are limited — We, as. Third World students, would have been again. Mr. Lessoff, you made a terrible mistake. You tried to use us and now you are trying to play on the white students’ fear at this University. Specifically, your statement about catering to minority groups: we discriminate against white students by making separate lines for white and minority students, and we just increase the problems between students on this campus. 1 don’t think you can prove that over the last five years UUAB has catered to any minority group on this campus and the only reason why there is a need for a separate line is because with a separate line there would at least be some money for minority programming. In conclusion, I would like to say that Third World students are getting a raw deal by speaking up for what is ours. If UUAB was really concerned with duped I am writing in response to a letter that was printed in The Spectrum last Wednesday by Jeff Limited Quantities: - The racist University To the Editor.

Anyone who did not get mail forwarded minority programs, they would not have two films for minority students, and they wouldn’t have coffeehouses that just appeal to a white audience. They are trying to give the appearance that they are catering to everyone, but the programming of UUAB is Lily-white. So, Mr. Lessoff, if you are concerned about this problem, I already know the ending of this movie because 1 have seen it before. Mr. Lessoff, 1 think that you have a lot of nerve saying that we are racist when your people are the world’s greatest exporters of racism. If UUAB wasn’t racist, you wouldn’t put up such a fight because you would have had your facts together. It seems to me that you are attacking the wrong people. The next time you get ready to call me, or someone who looks like me a racist, please look at yourself. The whole thing is nothing but a black and white issue, because you and the people who think like you don’t respect black men and women. If you had any respect, you—wouldn’t have thrown together a show that was 2/3 white and called it a minority concert. If you are here to serve all members of the University, your office staff doesn’t show it. I didn’t see any Arab students working at any of your events. UUAB is not the only organization that is racist the whole University is when it comes to Third World students.

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

Daily Continuous from 12 noon the arraignment the Court rules on the sufficiency of the complaint and then accepts a plea from the defendant. If the defendant pleads guilty the Court proceeds to impose a sanction. If the.defendant pleads not guilty a hearing date is set. Although the court has the power to subpoena witnesses from the student body the rules of evidence are generally more relaxed than in a criminal or civil court. If the defendant is found guilty he may appeal the Court's decision to an appellate panel of the Stade Wide Judiciary, just as he may appeal a sanction assigned at an arraignment. Sanctions of the Court include warnings, disciplinary probation', restitution, suspension and expulsion. In the case of suspension or expulsion the Court makes a recommendation to the University President who delivers the final decision. Many of the cases heard by the Court could be heard in civil or criminal courts. In this regard the Student Wide Judiciary provides an alternative forum for those students and organizations who could not afford to litigate in city or county courts.

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

If the Council approves the proposal, a mid-semester and final progress report must be filed by the student. If the experiment fails the student is required to provide a full explanation. Loffman firmly believes that learning can be furthered by understanding the causes of failure. The research proposals received this semester are more diversified and less sicnece-oriented than in previous years.

Careers at all levels and functions of government are included in this definition, particularly important to the Foundation are students exhibiting potential leadership ability. One student will be chosen from this University to compete for the scholarship on a state-wide basis. Pre-law Advisor Jerome Fink said that, “Due to the largeness and complexity of this institution, it will be difficult to make a fair decision on a candidate for the scholarship.” On account of this problem, he is asking that any student who is both interested and qualified nominate himself for the scholarship. To quality, an individual must have a 3.5 academic average, presently be a sophmore at this University, and desire for a career in public service. Any interested student can nominate himself by making an appointment to see Fink, in Hayes Annex C, Room 6, before November 19th. The criteria for selection by this University will consist of academic excellence, the evaluation of a 500 word essay written by the student, and any achievements in public service. $5000 a year The Foundation is supported by the Harry S.

A sophomore student will be chosen to represent this University in statewide competition for the annual Harry S. Truman scholarship. The scholarship was established by Congress as the official Federal memorial to. honor the thirty-third President of the United States, and is a permanent education scholarship for outstanding students pursuing careers in public service. The Harry S. Truman Scholarship Foundation will make its first scholarship awards this spring, to be used during the 1977-78 academic year. The awards will be made on the' basis, of merit, to students who will be college juniors in September 1977 and who are preparing for careers in public service. One scholarship will be awarded to a resident applicant from each of the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. An additional award will be made to a student from either Guam, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa or the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands. Each accredited institution of higher education under the American flag is invited to nominate one student annually on the basis of recommendations made by its faculty. ■ II council opticians EYES EXAMINED NO APPOINTMENT NECESSARY GLASSES MADE WHILE YOU WAIT IN MOST CASES CONTACT LENSES (including soft) cvpcpvAM.Mcn • • • /jmjmjiK Buffalo, Lafayette Sq—853-5133 Clarence, Transitown Plaza—633-2440 West Seneca-3525 Seneca-674-8300 I IMPORTED KMEi»JIHMESE L I0S THilUHD jflETHiM PHILIPPINES ...FRESH...

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

The Spectrum Page five . �Women’s collective Emma bookstore: ‘I get so high being here’ community bookstore,” she explained, “and then we try to serve the Left. We have a lot of books about by Andrea Rudner Spectrum Staff Writer Latin America, Angola, South Africa, China books with a socialist orientation for anti-capitalistic people. So we’re three bookstores in one.” She hoped that Emma might change people’s perspectives on life. “When people buy a book and take it home you can hope it might change their lives, at least a little bit.” The Emma collective has come up with a number of possible projects, some of which, some, such as their small lending library ar(d their Children’s Story Hour have already been implemented on an experimental basis. The projects were designed with the double aim of increasing exposure to new ideas and bringing the community together. Other potential projects include selling women’s crafts on consignment, and presenting speakers and films, possibly in conjunction with the Fillmore-Leroy Community Center. — Pamela was comfortably seated at an old wooden desk. As she spoke she leafed through a book catalogue. “There’s just so much garbage that gets published.” Towards the front of the store two children were enjoying a game of catch. “Some of our neighbors are visiting us,” said Leslie as she watched them. The walls were abundantly covered with colorful posters. “Yes, it can be very inspiring just to work around this many posters,” commented Pamela. A man was engrossed in a book of poetry, while in the background the stereo played Holly Near. The store is called Emma, The Buffalo Women’s Bookstore and is located on the corner of Fillmore Avenue and Wakefield, six blocks from Main Street. The women mentioned are tow members of the twelve-woman collective that runs and is Emma. What sets it apart from any other bookstore in the Buffalo area is that Emma is a women’s bookstore. “First and foremost we serve women,” stressed Pamela. Most bookstores have a Women’s — — section, but the feeling among these women from the Emma collective was that these special sections are inadequate. Emma is attempting to meet the needs of women by offering unavailable literature that is both by and for women from Sexual Politics to science fiction, from short stories to autobiographies, from poetry to fix-it manuals, from gay literature to the Future of Motherhood. — Place for the community Just as important as adequate reading material, according to Emma, is a place for community people to go and sit and talk and “hang out.” “We epcourage people who don’t have the money to buy books to come here and hang out all day,” siad Leslie. There is a comfortable sitting section in one corner of Emma furnished with two large, soft armchairs, a couch, and a small coffeetable. “The kids don’t have places to go in this neighborhood, so they come out here,” said Pamela. “The neighbors dig it,” she said happily. “We try to' be three different bookstores,” Pamela continued. “We try to be a bookstore that serves women on the theoretical level. We’re also a Page six . The Spectrum Monday, 15 November 1976 . Men an issue Emma’s relationship to men is a sensitive area and frequently debated. The four women from Emma who were interviewed last week Pamela, Leslie, Kim and Rosemary were all eager to have — -r- men come into the store and read the books and browse. “There’s a lot they can learn here,” Kim said. However, the response to the question, “Can men join the collective?” was a definitive “no way.” “It is a women's collective,” said Kim. Pamela explained, saying, “We’re strong believers in the autonomous women’s movement.” ‘High on being here’ Giggling and shrieking 'couhT'be heard from outside as a woman and two children passed by Emma, the pay phone in the bookstore rang and a woman, saying “It’s for me,” rose to answer it. In spite of the problems the women encounter they feel that being in the collective is well worth it and satisfying. Says Pamela: “There’s a lot of shit-work, shoving pieces of paper around, but it’s a lot of fun to-work around here.” Rosemary related how she had found Emma by chance. “I happened to find the place and 1 loved it. It’s just the place I wanted to be. I asked if I could join the collective and be a part of it.” “I get so high on being here,” Leslie added. “The women here are real wonderful. And the people that some in are real wonderful.” As an established bookstore, Emma has the need, and the opportunity to make connections with feminist presses, bookstores and organizations throughout the United States. Being in communication with these women from all over the country is one of the most exciting aspects of working at Emma. Leslie related how Big Mama Rag, a Colorado women’s periodical had printed a small piece on Emma. “They’re so far away, and they know about us!” she said, adding “Seeing those types of connections, it makes me feel things are getting better and the movement is growing. It feels great. It gives us the energy to continue.” Emma attacked The Big Mama Rag article the women referred to was written about a physical attack made on Emma this summer. At 4 a.m., Wednesday, August 25th, the front plate glass window of Emma was smashed by two bricks. The bricks were followed by jars and plastic bags of yellow paint, which spattered the plants, furniture, books and walls behind the windows. The women in the Emma collective were stunned and angry. They printed a leaflet describing the incident and their reaction to it. The store is coincidentally located not far from where there used to be a White Power bookstore. The attack was “premeditated, pre-planned and carefully executed. It was not just kids this time.” To Kim the attack on Emma was not arbitrary vandalism. “We were pretty upset about it. It implied that they didn’t want us to be here. They don’t like what we mean,” The leaflet described the attack as “an attack on the entire community.” The women at Emma and their neighbors believe that this act was an attempt to scare them away from their neighborhood and prevent them from accomplishing the goals the Emma collective has set for itself. The leaflet responded in no uncertain terms to the unknown vandals. “We will not be intimidated. If the idea of women working together can create such fear that people feel they have to try to stop us, they should know that we will not be stopped.” As an indirect result of this vandalism, Buffalo’s women’s bookstore now has a striking mural in the space previously occupied by the pane of glass. A Women’s Studies class, aptly entitled Art for Social Change, collectively painted a colorful mural depicting people of all ages dancing, hands joined together, in a circle. A bright orange sun shines down upon them and the green grass at their feet is dotted with flowers. Pamela also mentioned a minor rip-off and theft problem, but a child-printed sign that admonishes "No running in the store and no stealing” should help solve that. Vandalism and rip-offs are not the only problems. “From the organized women’s movement here we haven’t gotten as much support as we expected. It’s disappointing,” reflected Pamela, “but on the other hand, it's exciting in that most of our support is from community people people who haven’t ever been involved in women’s liberation. They come in here and get tuned in.” — Mobile beginnings Emma began almost a year ago in December 1975, when Minday, Cheryl and Pamela felt a need for a women’s bookstore. Pamela explained. “I �moved up here two years ago to work on the Attica campaign and I couldn’t find any good bookstores, and I’m a bookworm. So we opened a bookstore.” Two of the women were teaching in Women’s Studies College at the time and so were able, in ordering books for their classes, to get meny books on consignment. “We started with very little money,” said Pamela. Instead of immediately oepning a storefront, the three women decided to create a mobile unit that would travel to different events in the Buffalo area selling books and doing outreach. Pamela viewed it as a way of “testing the market” to determine how much response and support they would receive. “It was very difficult then, and it still is,” said Leslie. “It’s a real learning process. We’re all learning about ordering and finances. We’re each trying to bring what we do best here.” Since the women were unsure of which neighborhood to settle in permanently, the mobile unit gave them the opportunity to become familiar with different areas in Buffalo and choose one in which to locate. ‘They can get here’ They chose the Fillmore-Leroy nieghborhood because it was a “lively, centrally located, family neighborhood.” People from this University often wonder why Emma chose to locate to far from the school. Kim answered the question firmly. “The people from the University can get here. They have money, they have cars. They can come. The people here don’t have money.” “Why did they choose the name Emma?” Smiling, the women said Emma is a literary figure or a fictional character, like Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert and Emma by Jane Austen. “It’s also a beautiful woman’s name,” added one woman. Another mentioned Emma Goldman, an American anarchist well known around the turn of the century. When the store opened it had just one table of books. It grew slowly and now is well stocked, although the selection could and will be expanded. The mobile unit was not eliminated altogether, even when the Emma collective opened their storefront in May of this year. It still travels to approximately two events each month, increasing contact with the general public. None of the women who work in the collective get paid. Most of these have other jobs and other responsibilities and as a result can only contribute between two and six hours per week. “It takes a lot to keep a bookstore running smoothly,” said Pamela. She said an attempt was being made to save enough money for one or two salaried positions. Emma’s around the world? In praising collective organization as opposed to a hierarchical structure Pamela said enthusiastically, “One of the things we like best is to give people a chance to do what they’ve never done before. Now we have twelve people who know how to run a bookstore. They’ll be able to go to other cities and open other Emma' s.” The women of Emma are unafraid to experiment with projects not usually undertaken in traditional bookstores. The Children’s Story Hour always attracts a few excited young listeners. Emma also encourages visits from women who do any kind of crafts; pottery, jewelry, macrame, leatherwork, decorative crafts, and more, to visit Emma. Emma will take the crafts on consignment, exhibit and try to sell them. The project will begin in time for the holiday season, and if successful will continue indefinitely. The lending library, although small and unpublicized, is succeeding fairly well. And the bulletin board hanging in the sitting section is available to anyone. Store hours are Tuesday to Saturday 12 to 7, Thursday and Friday until 8. Emma’s stock includes non-sexist children’s and adults’ books, and records, including those by Holly Near, Chris Williamson, Meg Christian and Barbara Dane. “We just received a new album by Willie Tillson,” said one woman. “No,” corrected another, “it’s Tillie Wilson.” “Wait a minute,” said a third, it’s Sylvia Tyson!” “It’s Willy Tyson.” “I know remembered the first. “I like the way we evolved to that one,” commented someone. “That’s why we’re a collective,” they laughingly concluded. — Monday, 15 November 1976 . The Spectrum . Page seven �I EditPrial % Absentee ballot fiasco The statewide absentee balloting disaster that has prompted the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) to file suit today against the New York State Board of Elections will hopefully lead to several court-directed reforms. because the The reforms must be accomplished cherishes its which alternative is repugnant in any country the continued disenfranchisement of a democracy: substantial number of eligible voters. It is not altogether surprising that the great majority of voters who require absentee ballots are students attending colleges and universities away from their homes. They were denied their right to vote in large numbers between 20,000 because the county and 100,000, according to NYPIRG Boards of Elections either returned the absentee ballots too late or failed to return them at all. As most of the out-of-town students at this University are from the New York Metropolitan area, most of the difficulties encountered were with the Board of Elections in Kings (Brooklyn), Queens, and Nassau Counties. But students involved in voter registration drives at this University indicated there were problems with absentee ballots in almost every county in the state. County Boards of Elections have also been criticized by student leaders in the weeks following the election for alleged improper handling of voter registration forms. It appears that smaller foul-ups by the students in the largely-successful voter registration drive were exacerbated by the problems at the Boards of Elections. The most and the one most often potentially damaging charge made is that student voter directed at the Erie County Board registration forms were summarily rejected, especially in the case of dormitory students. It was also charged that requested registration forms were never sent out. If the various charges are found true, then there have been gross violations of the current election law, which requires, among other things, absentee ballots be mailed out early enough so that voters can complete and return them to home districts before the deadline, and registration forms "shall be freely and widely available." There are two most frequently cited reasons for the failures by the Boards of Elections. The first is that understaffed Boards were swamped with unexpected work as an outcome of the successful student voter registration ton* To as - — — drives. The second, and more insidious reason, is that election laws are intentionally complicated and drawn up from partisan political motivations, to disenfranchise as many as Against military ads Mr. Siggelkow says that a Marine recruitment ad is not “pornographic,” but I disagree. After all, what utterly ignoring the Richard A. Siggelkow, a vice president of the could be more obscene? In University, writes (Spectrum Nov. 10) that The personal and global violence perpetrated by Marines, Mr. Siggelkow misses Spectrum should not bar paid advertisements placed institutions like the the point. For the same reason I think much of the by the U.S. Marine Corps. In taking this position he says that he has “no desire to discuss the relative commentary on the stabbing death of St. John’s merits of our military establishment.” Mr. Siggelkow student Fitzgerald misses the point. A St. John’s spokeperson was quoted in the apparently believes that employment by the Marines New York Times as saying that the killing of is just another “professional opportunity.” These are amazing statements. Are we to believe Fitzgerald was probably the result “of too much zeal that the “relative merits” of the Marine Corps on the part of the students in attempting to perfect their military tactical skills.” Here again is another program are irrelevant here? Surely, nothing could statement.

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

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

It seems that these problems are a result of poor ■eporting rather than the editing process, as had been suggested to me. A very interesting situation occurred and I would like to relate it to you as it may give you an idea why problems in articles arise. I was at my home when a reporter from The Spectrum called to ask me about the student directory, which was my project (more about that later). In the middle of an explanation as to why the directory only cost $600 to mail instead of the ,$900, the reporter hung up on me. I do not consider that to be responsible reporting. The Spectrum, now aware of a student paper and grated professionalism is supposed to be strived for, but when reporters hang up in the middle of intepdews, I question that professionalism. I trust the editors of The Spectrum, now. aware of .the situation, will try to correct it. Things like this degrade a newspaper and I don’t think it should continue. I have also been Now to brighter topics receiving many calls about the student directory. 1. The housing error was a computer error. The computer left out the first address on the list and moved all subsequent addresses up one name. Therefore, many (approx. 2200) housing students have wrong addresses. Most phone numbers are .. printing press at the Service in Denver Press College broke down last week. The Spectrum was on its own and had nothing much to say. There’s no excuse when a student newspaper comes up mute. The college press has atrophied in the past few years as the students went inside either to study or stone-out full time, and the student movement came to an end. But this specifically isn’t my concern. I’m tired of generational my own and comparison, tendency to mourn for my activist predecessors and to idealize their glory. My lifestyle is planted firmly in the 1970’s. The goings on in the world continue to amaze me; the goings on outside my door 1 could care less about. I sail from apathy to tedium, from listlessness to monotony. I hate it and 1 love it; affluence without the risk of commitment. This is what 1 see around me: without the unifying goals of liberalism and leftist politics, and governments student blunder along in newspapers search of an ideology, a cause, a concrete statement of purpose. Norton Hall is dominated by (attorneys, professional's accountants, salaried employees and secretaries) who more often than not take the decision making initiative away from students, who too often are unprepared, disorganized and insecure. The society among these Norton Hall employees is self-protecting and The To the Editor. Between watching Star Trek and reading Marvel comics, I don’t have much time for writing and other intellectual pursuits, but your editorial (Wednesday, November 10) inspired me to put down my copy of Hulk, and take the time to express my outrage. •When did it become a crime to look back and reflect on our childhood? I’m sure most will agree that, indeed, those were the best years of our lives. Is it so wrong to try to recapture the very things which gave us so much pleasure? Personally, it both bores and tires me to “stare reality in the face” all the time. There is a time and a place for everything, and that includes an occasional ride on the “Enterprise.” . accurate though. 2. If your name did not appear or if wrong, you either checked no to the question of having your name in a student directory on the data forms filled out when registering, or if your address was wrong on your ID card, it means it is wrong on the computer and would require an update form to correct it. Dorm students addresses can still be 3. obtained by calling the area desks of either dorm. As a project we consider the directory a success. After all, we have one now and we didn’t before. Anyone who did not get a directory can pick one up by stopping in 205 Norton, 9-5 Monday-Friday. As long as 1 am writing, I might as well remind you, if any of you are having problems with anyone at this University, call the SA office at 831-5507 and ask for me. I am in SA to help you with your problems. Please don’t be afraid to come in. Thanks for the opportunity to express my ..opinions. Barbara Henry To the Editor. I have an answer to the question posed in Wednesday’s editorial “Where are the intellectuals?” They are in the classrooms by day and the libraries by night. We are intellectuals for a greater part of our life at this University. Sometimes we tire of writing papers, or reading textbooks, and we would like to relax and forget that we are intellectual creatures. At those times, we enjoy going to a William Shatner lecture, reading a Marvel comic book, partying, oi; even drinking beer. We are not academic robots, programmed only to emit free radical substitution mechanisms or the philosophy of Sartre. We have emotional and social needs that are just as important as our intellectual needs (if not more so). We spend enough time as intellectual personae in our classes. Sometimes we like to be Captain Kirk instead of Mister Spock. Joy Clark Lee Scott Penes Director CAMPUS UNREST by Richard Korman Space editorial to change, a perfect complement to the students’ inability to chose a direction. resistant The students themselves are dominated by two type$: liberal conservative careerists, and careerists (corporation mentality, soft right-wingers). Both types are mercenaries in search of future only for the employment liberals is it a source of The embarrassment. administration is enjoying a decided advantage in its ability to control the life of the University. The technical proficiency of The often makes The Reporter Spectrum look pale. The officers of the student government are powerless without the support of the students. Their best tactic is University-wide join to committees in hope of making their voices heard here and there they have on detailed questions opposing an hope up of ever given administration policy of any major scale. Besides, a radical call-to-arms now is laughably out of place. The best we can do is placate the various special interest groups who demand, a share of the activity fee. The faculty sound as if they’ve had enough of factional intra they’re university politicking: ready to welcome students back to the collegiate bosom. — - Too many of the students in Norton Hall are there to confirm their own value; too many see minor league themselves as bureaucrats and care only about the paper that gets pushed and adolescent gossip. No one asks, Dear Mr. Dean: I was prompted to write this poem in reply editorial, “Who Loves SUNY?" to your here to practice “Who’s government, who’s here for the to who’s here journalism, represent the students.” But I don’t have any excuses. This is how it is with me: I speak in sweet, diplomatic tones everyday to people I despise and who despise me. I’m coopted by the bureaucratic status quo, yet I’m still uncomfortable about sitting down to a lunch someone is buying me from an expense account. I’m half-way between and journalism, academics participatory decadence. I haven’t spoken to several close friends in years. I float from person to person with the same neurotic rap. There’s one man out there who swears, he’s going to kill me. My characteristic state is unrealized potential. I can be passionate and apathetic on the same subject within 30 seconds. I’m riven with guilt: the life 1 describe to my parents is a sanitized fantasy. My college career is a zany, chaotic adventure which adds up to very little, and depressingly is therefore unsatisfying. Mainly, I’m moved by great ideas, good food, nice people. It’s rare I ever do anything in depth, move in and out of coldly. I’m people’s lives always looking for a way out. But there’s no consolation in escape. I fear leaving this University without having defined myself as silly as that sounds. a student But I’ll do without radical nostalgia, and I’ll do without cold-blooded pre-professionalism. Right now, I’m running in circles thundering to listening and - Dear Mr. Dean, To insult nor demean, Are neither my theme Nor intention. I was just under the impression, that School here in session, Would be somewhat beyond Such pretention. I was almost assured, When I paged the brochure. That by going to school I’d advance. But apparently so, That’s no more than a throw, To get students to finance the campus. The students you’ve taken, (The prime of the bacon!) Have become such an obvious error, That the ones who must understand it. And thus, reprimand it, Are feeling that school life’s a terror. The exhorbitant fees, Match the stinging of bees, And believe me that’s putting it lightly. My accounts’ up in smoke, In other words, “I’m broke,” Now you can’t say I’m not living tightly When all I can eat When I visit the deli, Is crackers and cheese, Peanut butter an jelly, I know that there’s something That’s definitely wrong, And it’s not because of The budget I’m in.

Page nine . �Alumni wrestling match rejuvenates by Marshall Rosenthal Spectrum Staff Writer ,The next bout saw the Bulls’ Ray Pfeifer meet alumnus Mack Roy Guarino ’73. That set the stage for the match between the Bulls’ current co-captain liob Martineck and still another one of the outstanding graduates from 1974, ted Lawson. This match was indeed featuring two of the Bulls’ all-time premier wrestlers. Sams ’74 on the mat. and it was Billed as the "opportunity to see the people who have made University of Buffalo Wrestling,” Clark Hall played host to the Third Annual University of Buffalo Alumni Wrestling Meet dn Saturday. The Alumni, whose roster spanned the past ten seasons, featured numerous former Bulls who have excelled in wrestling for Buffalo. However, age seems to have caught up with most of the Alumni, as the Bulls’ varsity won 28-17. The opening match featured the varsity’s Tony Oliveri and the alumnus Bob Veres ’72. Veres was giving Oliveri some trouble in the early going, but was overwhelmed in the third period when the younger Bull made a nice move to pin the graduate. But the alumni struck back quickly. Freshman Steve Tripodi had his hands full against Mike Watson ’69, who still works out and wrestles. In this match, Watson proved too much for Tripodi, as he outscored the younger Bull 12-1. not for the first time. Pfeifer had wrestled Sams two years ago when he was a freshman, and apparently he hadn’t forgotten some of Sams’ moves as the younger , Bull conquered the elder Bull 4-2. After the match, Sams said of Pfeifer, “He’s a tough kid, who's gotten a lot stronger; if he gets in gobd shape and has a good attitude he’ll have a super year.” Runaway At the end of the first period there was no score. In the second, Martineck took the advantage 4-2 and Lawson was fortunate that time ran out, for Martineck almost pinned the former Bull. But the final period saw Martineck go wild. His quickness combined with Lawson’s exhaustion, enabled Martineck to win 9-2. A1 After the alumni’s the John vdrsity’s and Charpentier Hughes wrestled to a 4-4 tie, freshman Doug Tingue faced one of Buffalo’s best in alumni Bill Jacoutot ’74. Jacoutot, who still continues to work out, had a har; time but won the match 5-3. In two more somewhat easy Afterwards, Jacoutot said of victories for the younger Bulls, Tingue' “He’s one of the best the varsity’s Gary Devin handled prospects UB has had. He has a lot the alumni’s John Kopalek ’73 of guts and he is more than a 10-4, while the other co-captain formidable opponent.” for ’76 Kirk Anderson devastated Next, the Bulls’ Pat Riley his opponent, Cliff Gessner ’71 by outmatched alumnus Doug Rutter the score 7-0. 5-2 and the Bulls’ Gene Tundo wrestled to a 1-1 tie with another of the former outstanding Bulls, sportsquiz 1.

Bell looked up to the crowd with his tongue hanging out and asked, “What am I doing here?” The alumni’s final victory of the afternoon was awarded to Ed Hamilton '74. Known as “The Scrambler,” Hamilton’s record as a Bull was 23-4-0. Putting up a Sportspaige by Paige Miller Sports Editor What would happen if a sportswriter were sent to cover a news story like he would cover a sporting event? For example, the goings-on of a well known campus Organization might be "reported like this: The University of Buffalo Student Association (SA), following last year’s 1-27 season, is ready to open their fall campaign and team captain Steve “Curly” Spiegel expects them to be much more effective this year.' The only problem so far this year, according to Spiegel, has been injuries. The team’s top hack, Steve Schwartz, has already been sidelined. It seems his mouth has become stuck in the “On” position, and when Schwartz runs put of things to say, his mouth keeps going, making him sound incoherent most of the time. Lee Penes, or L.P. as he is commonly known, also is not in top form after a band of thugs roughed him up and held him captive in their house for several days so that his address would coincide with the one listed for him in the student directory. The rest of the team is in top shape, and since their main adversary. Robert Ketter, is sitting this season out, a winning record may be in the offing. “I think our defense is as strong as anyone’s” said Spiegel. "What we have to do more of is start attacking people.” In the current North American Philharmonics League Standings, the Boston Philharmonics was leading Buffalo by three symphonies and a piano solo, so tonight’s concert could be an important one. The Philharmonica is one of America’s oldest spectators sports, and always draws a large crowd, so it seems strange that the rules of Philharmonica are so obscure. The object for the'players is to keep up with the conductor, who, naturally, is supplied by the opposing team. The orchestra leader tries to confuse the players by rapidly changing tempo, or slowing down at moments when the band would least expect it. One point is awarded if the conductor confuses the band during a solo, two points during a concerto and four points during a symphony. Perhaps one of the reasons that other sports, like basketball or football have gained in popularity at Philharmonica’s expense, is that the players are so well trained that an enormous number of scoreless ties result. Another possibility is that the spectators are not allowed to cheer when the orchestra can’t keep up with the conductor. Culinary delights An article like that could set music back two hundred years. Lastly, a sportswriter could review a restaurant so that no one wtmld ever eat there again. For example: The steak at Joe’s Deli is absolutely scrumptious. It was as tender as a deflated basketball Destroying the Philharmonic and as yummy as the smell of victory that one finds Just think what would happen if a sportswriter in a locker room after the game. were sent to review a concert by the Buffalo Fortunately for .the rest of the world Philharmonic. The result be havoc. His report sportswriters usually stick to sports. But if we ever Could read like this: decide to branch out, watch it! You’ve been warned Page ten . Spectrum . Monday, 15 November 1976 tough fight was the varsity's Jeff Wheeler, but Wheeler succumbed to Hamilton’s quickness and strength, 9-6. In the final match of the afternoon, the Bulls’ Tim Rock easily handled Dan Burr T)8 by the score of 5-0. Burr was also the oldest competing alumnus. The Alumni Wrestling Meet was more than just Buffalo’s former stars facing the Bulls of today. “This is a great socialization process,” Jacoutot said. “Besides, you can make believe you’re the guy you once were.” For Watson, he looks forward to the meet with me, the meet “For anticipation. me the chance to see some gives old faces and to wrestle again. I also like to keep up and see how the new team does.” SHARE THE RIDE WITH US THIS THANKSGIVING AND GET ON TO A GOOD THING.

From German: Schlag: a "blow"; perhaps the Yiddish means 1. A merchandise that has been “knocked around. shoddy, cheaply made article. “It’s a*piece of shlock." “Where did you buy that? In a shlock-house?” 2. A defective or fake article; an object one was cheated over. “That watch will never keep time. It's shlock merchandise." shlock-house: A store that sells cheap, distressed, defective, “fire sale” articles. A gyp joint. Leo Rosten, The Joys of Yiddish ” I am a colonial historian, doing research on the American Revolution. This is not just a job with me: it is my central passion. How many of us are lucky enough to see the central passion of our creative lives translated into the Disney version, and for sale, in this translation, in every supermarket, and broadcast in every medium? Bicentennial Schlock offered me a one-in-a-lifetime chance to see cartoon versions of something I expect to be involved with for the rest of my life. And I had to try to make sense of the occasion for this stuff: the commemoration of the American Revolution. When I prepared my undergraduate American Studies course for the spring of 1976, the readings were primarily about the American Revolution, but 1 had decided to see, together with the students, what we made of the Bicentennial as well; to look at the conflicting versions of America’s past, present and future presented by the Bicentennial, and to relate them to the various and conflicting definitions of America-to-be that were present at the nation’s beginning. There is plenty to read about the Revolution, but we had to catch the Bicentennial as it went by: through direct experience, the mass media, and the publications of groups hawking conservative, liberal and radical Bicentennials. I contributed reports to the class on a historian’s travels and involvements in Bicentennial committees, lectures and symposia. My syallbus asked students to give short ungraded oral reports on the Bicentennial, in„which they would not only present “the raw data ... but also attempt Your interpretation to analyze, explain and interpret . should take into account the possibility that others, with views different from your own, might see your data differently. Why is your interpretation better?” Finally, I invited them to bring in items of Bicentennial Schlock for a tentatively planned exhibit and asked them, as with their reports, to try to analyze and make sense of it. v .. No definition 1 gave students no definition of Bicentennial Schlock other than that items should be “inexpensive; free, or If perhaps in the area of a dollar maximum price cheapness is one of our criteria,” the syllabus continued, “the exhibit will come closer to reflecting the Inescapable Bicentennial, the one that falls on us all like rain, rather than an exotic and expensive Bicentennial: our schlock must be real schlock, available schlock, cheap schlock.” Cheapness was also important since, as I told them, “you will not get your contributions back.” (If I hadn’t suggested other motives above, you might almost think that this was some Bicentennial freak’s crazed invention to feed his addiction under the guise of trendy research. And who knows?) Although no credit was attached to the exhibition part of the course, students responded with the kind of enthusiasm that would make a Bicentennial freak’s eyeballs glow. Week after week, I carried this stuff, in both ... _ � ' from the classroom to my office, stopping off at a student cafeteria to have a brownie put in my mouth, and never really asked myself whether, doing this, I looked like a normal person. Pretty soon the office began to get crowded and, as I moved toward a rudimentary categorization, the categories filled up the chairs. A second front opened when the media arrived. Just as Andy Warhol says, eventually everybody in the world will be famous for 15 minutes. The UP1 photographer’s next assignment on the day he took my picture was Super Joe Einhorn, driving his motorcycle over a dozen buses. After a while, I began to say no to interviews: I hadn't figured out what the stuff meant, and I felt like a fake. But by the time 1 cut off the interviews, 1 had become Bicentennial Schlock, my picture printed across the country. Wherever I went, they shouted, “Schlock Czar,” “Schlock Czar.” People called me up to inquire about franchises. An omelet was named after ifie in San Jose. Handsome gentelmen invited me to come up and see their collections. And from all over the country Granada Hills and Oakland, California; Jewett, Ohio; Providence, Newark, Muncie, New Haven even people began to send and me pictures of myself from their local newspapers more schlock. Toilet paper, sanibags. condoms and ginger ale bottles came through (he mail, and schlockfans began to call me up late at night to compare collections. A spirit of community not unlike the fellowship ot CB infused my otherwise solitary life. Fellow historians sent met things - — — — too. Whut does Bicentennial Schlock mean? I don't exactly know. I find this deeply embarrassing. I have always stood up against those druggy and mysticalMcLuhanesque types who think that cutesy juxtaposition is analysis enough. I shout, “Analysis, analysis: no data speaks tor itself!” And yet, after all this, I don’t exactly know what Bicentennial Schlock means. Will you take as an excuse the idea that this is only a kind of hobby, not my real work? Still, I hate to be caught not thinking like a social scientist. Try this one: “more research is needed.” ITs true. Actually, the students did do something like research. As we formulated and refined pur explanations, they corresponded with giant corporations and talked to salespeople and ad people; one of them even called up my dry cleaner to find out why my trousers came back in a Bicentennial bag. From work like this, some very tentative generalizations emerged: Nobody asked 1 Nobody asked for Bicentennial Schlock, and nobody will take responsibility for it. Salespeople were embarrassed and defensive: “It just came through that way.” It came down from above inexplicably. Not exactly inexplicably. It’s my impression that a major force in the creation of Bicentennial Schlock has been the anxiety of sellers, fearful of being caught with their red, white and blue pants down; fearful that their competitor, the one with the Bicentennial packaging, would sell all the peanut butter. Most of it is packaging, just this year's wrapping. 2. No one takes it seriously; nobody was taken in. This may seem trivial and Obvious, but it is important. Many studies of popular culture tend to assume simplistically that what comes down in this way is a direct reflection of popular “needs” and desires. Thus we read the popular mood from the best-seller list, or we hear the longings of teenagers in the lyrics of popular music. We assume that the comics express the innermost yearnings of their readers, or we reveal the contents of the popu^r mind based on our study of TV soap operas. All this seems hip and populist, but it is immensely condescending: it observes people making purchases within the very limited range of manufactured culture and assumes that they are fully buying; it ignores popular rejection and reshaping, and by obscuring “popular culture,” it also turns us away from much that is rich in genuinely popularly created culture. Indeed, Bicentennial Schlotfk is not popular culture. Like so much else that we think of as “popular culture,” it was neither popularly created nor popularly adopted. (It might have become popular culture to the extent that people adapted it: collectively remade it, actively placed it in their lives. I find very little evidence that this was done, except by a few relatively isolated Bicentennial freaks, but I may be wrong.) It floated down from above, and responded to no popular longing to celebrate the Bicentennial. This is not to deny that there was a popular longing to celebrate. The tragedy of the Bicentennial has been that there was such a longing, but the Bicentennial provided very few vehicles adequate for its expression. If Bicentennial Schlock was not popluar culture, that does not mean that it had no effect on what people thought. Just as those years of watching the killing in Vietnam in living color on Walter Cronkite had to deaden our -responses, so the piles of Bicentennial Schlock had to have some impact. Bicentennial Schlock was, in a sense, the Watergate of patriotism; a healthy demystification which makes us wisely cynical and distrustful of many things that we should have been distrustful of before. The Bicentennial made American history look ridiculous, and there is which deserves much in our history certainly reconsideration in more critical fashion. Watergate exposed the foolishness of the romance of liberal intellectuals (many historians included) with strong men. Perhaps the Bicentennial will do the same for our perception of strong men in the American past: the whole mac/io-military complex, present from the very beginning, atrocities committed in the name of patriotism, the continuing horrors of racism and sexism. After a long year of American history Disneyfied and cartoonified, historians may have a harder time selling an overly deferential view of some of the heroes of our past. But there is much in the American past that we have reason to want to commemorate and celebrate: egalitarian values (though unfulfilled); a scorn of class distinctions; a distrust of authority; a utopian streak, which expresses as we itself sometimes in our politics, and, sometimes who live in the “burned over district” of Western New York know in recurring waves of people striving toward perfection. Many of us who are ambivalent about the American heritage were nonetheless prepared to be'moved by the Bicentennial. But this stuff kills genuine sentiment, and an urge to celebrate was shattered by the inadequacy of most of the vehicles around. There were some exceptions to this poverty of symbolism, but not in the world of Bicentennial Schlock. And since Schlock was the Bicentennial’s most pervasive manifestation and perhaps its most enduring heritage, it almost seems, emotionally speaking, as if there were no Bicentennial at all. — - Jesse l.entisch, a historian, teaches in the American Studies Program at this University.

While the Buffalo office of NYPIRG is funded by mandatory student fees, the majority of the work at NYPIRG is done by volunteers, most of whom are students. N.YPIRG was formed in 1971 by Ralph Nader and his associate, current NYPIRG Director Donald Ross, for the purpose of acting in the public interest. Through NYPIRG, students have the opportunity to study real-world problems in which they have an interest, and help introduce corrective legislation concerning these problems. NYPIRG also offers students credit-bearing internships in Albany, Buffalo and on the road. NYPIRG focuses its attention on four general areas of public interest: energy, consumer protection, social justice and fiscal responsibility (i.e. tax reform). Within each of these categories, specific HAVE TO ALWAYS DO THIS AT M STATION Y'AltGOT A OWKCW 1t) GOTO?' AT M STA1T0N? PO , Oliphant vs. thePresident-elect tasks are formulated and researched. Buffalo NYPIRG Chairperson Paul Maggiotto said NYPtRG is currently investigating Educational Testing Service (ETS). “No one student must adhere to ETS controls ETS,” said Maggiotop, “but regulations. ETS is supposedly a non-profit organization but they gross around $50 million a year.” According to NYPIRG literature, ETS is responsible to no one, yet it controls the lives of millions, operating out of plush, multi-million dollar facilities in New Jersey. NYPIRG questions the validity of ETS tests and is collecting complaints about the company, mostly concerning late score delivery and losses of student records. These complaints will be brought before the State Legislature in an attempt to generate legislation controlling the power of ETS in New York State. Funeral project Buffalo NYPIRG Energy Project Coordinator Cathy Connolly said that NYPIRG is currently investigating alternative energy conversion methods. NYPIRG generally opposes the use of nuclear power, choosing instead to research more environmentally compatible methods including wind and solar power. Tests of such systems will be performed on scaled-down system models. NYPIRG members hope to, display the models at local expositions (i.e. the Allentown Festival). Connolly said NYPIRG is also investigating the decommissioning (disassembly) of nuclear reactors. The investigation involves research concerning the cost and danger of this process. The Funeral Project is another study being conducted by NYPIRG. NYPIRG is investigating charges that New York Stale funeral directors are ripping off their clientele. NYPIRG members are surveying funeral directors and relatives of the recently deceased in an effort to determine just how much money changes hands. Connolly said directors are elusive and often refuse to divulge prices, even to prospective customers. “Funerals are the third largest expense that people have,” said staff member Marvin Resnikoff. NYPIRG hopes to introduce corrective legislation at the next session of the Legislature. r iSi 1 The New 1 Century mm Theatre Rufflk) > I TONIGHT at 7:00 pm i QFM-97 & Harvey & Corky present ' A wild spoof of the great old horror movies of the past with a hard-driving rock score, a chorus of the bizarre 10% OFF WITH THIS AD Open 7 days a week Chinese Food Only) 7:00 am 12 Midnight 47 WALNUT STREET, FORT ERIE both a mad transvestite.

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

Lindenman, observed that an by live, agent was produced the gruws efficiently throughout Helmstetter suggests lack of growth in the cell or domination of the eel! by cycle. its the th its inhibitor is responsible for the alteration of the cycle. Another level of cell division control might he located in the cell membrane which, because it surrounds the cell, , affects its movements to a large extent, he theorized. If the surrounding cell membrane is altered in any manner, such as by,the insertion of an unwanted protein, it can deter the cell from its normal cycle. as~ destroying normal cells. Interferon treatment The Interferon Treatment of cancer is another study being pursued at Roswell Park by Carter, Sulkowski and Horoszewicz.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Joey, who doubles as checker for a great metropolitan supermarket, finds out about the rash of stomach problems when her 1 best friend, lox sheer Mabel Bloom calls in sick.

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

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

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

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

And how many performers have so many songs that are so well knownyv that in more than an hour he can't get to everyone's "favorite"? Aunt Lou Denver opened the show with "Annie's Song" (Has anyone ever seen Annie? Poes she really exist?) and followed with a generous helping of selections from his new "Spirit" LP. Taffy Dandoff sounded much better singing with Denver than she did with her band, harmonizing on "Baby You Look Good to Me Tonight" and "Take Me Home Country Roads." There were also numerous "folksey" asides that are Denver trademarks. He performed his mother's and father's favorite songs, and offered the hypothesis that "In everyone's life there is an Aunt Lou (who smells like a Shetland Pony, wears gobs of lipstick, and has a thing about kissing her little nephews)." Anyway, what s wrong with having a good time? I'm sure most of the crowd at the Aud did. Everyone has their favorite fantasy, and for those of us who like John Denver, our's is the one he weaves in his songs. It s really nice to believe that in this day and age people can actually take off to the country and live a natural life, play their guitar all day and marry a girl named Annie. Of course, it's all very commercially contrived and presented, but isn't almost everything? 1 .

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The task force is made up of a lot of different student interests. This task force along with the Commuter Council, is receptive to Commuters problems Problems. One of the duties of the task force is to investigate the and needs of the commuter students. We alone cannot fully, represent every commuter oh campus (we have a rough enough time representing ourselves). As an example, one of om biggest priorities was the parking lot problem. We proposed that students dressed as Disney characters greet commuters as they get out of their cars it’s such a long lonely walk to Norton. Ha! Ha! )ust one Of our meager attempts at humor.

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

Our overall percentage for the season has risen to 83.3. The following selections have modestly been forwarded to Las Vegas. Chicago 24, Green Bay 17. Chicago lost last week on a very poor call. This week they should win if with or without the benefit of one call. Unfortunately for Green Bay fans, the Pack won’t be back this week. Denver 30, San Diego 21. The Chargers, who were off to a strong start have hit a rough tailspin. Denver will be just too much for them to handle. Detroit 20, New Orleans 13. Hank Stram will regret leaving the broadcast booth for the sidelines. Detroit, after a strong showing last week, will manhandle the Saints Cincinnati 30, Houston 10. The Bengals only problem could be not enough rest after Monday’s clash with the Rams. Cinci should have no trouble at home with the Oilers.

The Bag’s men felt that if nothing else the Browns will lose by less. N.Y. Jets 13, Tampa 10. This is by any stretch of the imagination one of the foremost duds of the season. We feel that Richard Todd will lead the Jets past the expansionists, who are hoping for their first victory. Washington 21, Giants 7.

Both games Hall. were played at Clark Buffalo's record is now 15 Fredonia. as expected, was the tougher of the pair. The Blue Devils had already beamed Buffalo two days earlier at the District Tournament, so Buffalo came out looking for revenge. Led freshman Mary Fvanco. by Buffalo quickly jumped out in front, .making a - shambles of Fredonia's defense. Fredonia jumped lo (he early lead in the second game, and were able lo hang on despite six consecutive points hy the Bulls late, in the game. The hig diHercnee was Fredonia's six-loot junior Renee Benoit, whose shots often eJught Buffalo offguard. Bulfalo coach Peter Weinreich based on, Benoit's performance ;it Tournament, the District instructed the Bulls to try to block her spikes more. “We were pretty good at blocking her early." Weinreich said. "But then she skirled going over our blockers. Our buck court was not doing well, and had trouble ( BILL AN X-RATI m > adjusting Buffalo looks strong Nevertheless. Buffalo held Neoit pretty much in check the third game. With Buffalo leading 1—0. junior Hilory Schlesinger served an ace for Buffalo, two other balls which the Blue Devils couldn't return, and six points altogether, to give Buffalo a big margin. Fredonia caught up somewhat, but with the score 10 7 in Buffalo's favor. Fvanco hit a powerful spike which returned the serve to the Bulls. Then. Fvanco’s serves and two blocks by Judi Baidak led to live points and the game. That was the end for Buffalo, however. Fredonia took charge, and whalloped Buffalo 13—4 in the fourth game. That seemed to dampen Buffalo's spirits, and their play was lifeless in the fifth and final game. On lop of that. Benoit came alive, along with Fredonia's other six-footer Linda Scerbo. and Buffalo spent most of the final game chasing Fredonia's spikes. Weinreich really didn't know what to do ahout the change in altiiifde that Buffalo suffered. a prohlem which perplexes most coaches in most sports. Nevertheless, he wasn't disappointed with the way Buffalo played during the first three games. "Our backcourl. defense, center hitting 'were all fairly good as good as we could expect;" he said.

The reversal originally stemmed from a recommendation of the Student Assembly of the State University (SASU). The reappearance of frats and sororities are hoped to revive and stimulate more social activities on campus. “The camaraderie and brotherhood that frat members exryeQhnce is often the strongest bond they ever knowT" one student said. “Right now we need something perk up the campus,” he added. However, other students are angered at the news. “There are many other organizations on campus which can fulfill people’s desires. Fiats just aren’t functional any longer “Frats are bound to perpetuate discrimination by sheer definition,” another added. llow in the world can an organization,-so selective in nature, not lean towards discrimination? — — c Different classes of students Although national frats have been banned since 1953, local frats have their homes c in 16 SUNY Photos courtesy 9! the Buffakonian colleges and universities.

However, according to SASU President Frank Jackalohe, many students on campus wanted to have the ban lifted, and those students who didn’t had no strong objections. Some people surmise that the trend to fraternities is increasing, due to the dying political movement on campus. Students, they say, need to participate in something, apjd fraternities provide the means to fulfill that desire. Those who support the Board’s decision cite {he importance of having this alternative available. Those that oppose are afraid 0: tempting fate and repeating history Nevertheless, frats are here to stay for the meanwhile.

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

This meant picking up a 100-pound bag of cement and lifting it to different levels. Reiff is part of the number of women in non-traditional fields such as carpentry, plumbing and auto mechanics that has more than tripled since 1962. While efforts like Catalyst and the career development centers at colleges are trying to improve the job situation for women, there are still areas as broad as the film industry where discrimination exists and jobs don’t.

Clinic Supervisor Linda Guhlow explained the work load in the clinic is much heavier during the academic year than the summer presenting an imbalance in the hours required. She felt that stipends should be allocated for the academic year only, due to this imbalance. / The clinic, which handles 50-75 clients weekly’ is funded by the Health Care Division of Sub Board.

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

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

Back anthropology California and forth between her Los Angeles home and her car she trudges, loading it up with everything that’ll make her year at UC Riverside that much more enjoyable. Suddenly, as Ford steps off her porch with a small planter, a passing L.A. cop screeches to a halt, leaps from his car, slaps a pair of handcuffs on her and reads her rights. The planter, it turns out, contains five slender marijuana plants. Melanie Ford is UNDER ARREST. What does she do? It’s a familiar scene these days, even as polls show 27 million Americans puffing the funny weed and even as some states loosen up their laws governing its use. But people are still faced with so 416,000 last year alone marijuana arrests one’s actions when confronted with the police have tremendous legal implications that could eventually spell the difference between acquittal and convictionLawyers stress the importance of paying great attention to search and arrest procedures because the great majority of criminal cases never go to trial. In Detroit, only five percent of people arrested actually to to court; in Houston, just two percent of 16,000 people arrested in 1970 ever got their day in court, according to a massive legal study made that year.

The cardinal rule in dealing with the cops is, “When you’re not possessing, start confessing." At least, be as cooperative as possible if you’ve-got nothing to hide. If you do have something of the narcotic persuasion to conceal, the name of the game is to “be cool.” If you are stopped by the police while drivin the driver and passengers should immediately leave the car and walk back towards the police car in an unthreatening manner. This deft maneuver prevents the police from having legal cause to search the car The police, however, have been known to break the law themselves, so they may insist on looking through the car even if the driver and passengers are not in it. If this happens, tell the officer as politely as possible you don’t want to consent to a search. If the police persist, lawyers say it’s advisable to follow their orders but remember, you have still preserved your rights. Should the case ever wind its torturous way through the legal system and end up in court, the police action can be used in your favor. to do with As to the nagging question the dope when thecops pull .you over, the law indicates the be«'place is the bod.

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

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

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

It would be even better if school districts as large as Buffalo could be divided into several equally funded districts, with a maximum amount of responsibility taken by conservative elected school boards.

Michael Telski - (c) to ask �CAC brochure defended To the Editor: We are writing in response to a letter to the Editor which appeared in the Friday issue (October 15) of The Spectrum, “Stigma of Psychiatric Care;” In the writing of the CAC brochure it was not our intention to perpetuate or reinforce the negative stereotypes that are so often associated with someone vyho was a “former mental patient.” If this is the way that we came across, then we offer you our apologies. We would like to point out that for our purposes “labelling” is to some extent necessary. We are asking people to volunteer for a variety of different projects in the Health Care Area, and it is necessary to explain what the project is about in as short amount of space as possible. If you feel, that this part of the Brochure needs to be, and can be better written, then I am requesting your help in rewriting this section of the Brochure. We would like very much to set up a meeting with you (or anyone interested in this subject). We are all for doing whatever we can to help remove the stigma or psychiatric care, and are anxious to wofk with you. Please contact us at the CAC office, ' 831-3609, or stop by Room 345 Norton Hall. Thanking you in advance for your cooperation. Jim, Mooney, Russ Cooper Co-Coordinators, Health Care Inexcusable mutilation To the Cditor. Perhaps 1 am pushing my luck with The Spectrum by submitting a third letter in the one week, but this week seems to have had a backlog of issues requiring comment. This is a letter of protest to The Spectrum for printing the PODER/BSU letter in the manner seen in Wednesday’s paper. It is inexcusable to print a letter with the first five lines having all the words running together. That was a mistake of style, but printing the figure $120,000 instead of $120.00 was a mistake of substance. What The Spectrum has done is to destroy the reasoning contained in that paragraph, and make the letter appear senseless. I know the figure in the letter was $120.00, because I saw a copy prior to Wednesday. This mistake, no doubt unintentional, is particularly disheartening because I went to Rich Korman, Editor-in-Chief, earlier this year, and we reached an agreement that Student Association and The Spectrum would try to encourage opinions from groups on campus that have traditionally been by passed in the media. One way was to circulate a letter encouraging Guest Opinions and letters to The Spectrum, it is unfortunate that one of the first responses should be presented in a mutilated fashion. I hope that PODER and BSU will not believe that their letter was purposely fouled-up, and that they will not be discouraged from writing in the future. I also trust The Spectrum will not repeat any similar mistakes. ' Steve Spiegel Executive Vice President Student Association This strange, distorted land To the Editor. As a member of the student senate, I voted against the proposal that UUAB have a special line for minority entertainment. 1 felt a lot of pressure in the Senate to vote for it (including Stu Ellison’s call for a roll call vote. What bffice are you running for in the” spring, Stuart?). that a I don’t agree with the thought “substantial” amount of money should be separated for a special interest group. The minority students, or the Jewish students, or the students with science courses, or however you want to break them up, shouldn’t be handed something they aren’t willing to work for. It’s a well known fact (or is it?) that this year’s budget has a large allocation for minority interests because ot\ the pressure put on the government last year. The Executive Committee hid in someone’s house because ot the demands put on them by Minority Affairs. It was brought up at the Senate that if the minority students wanted to do their own the simply join programming, they \could committees. If any group complained to me that they didn’i like the films or music, I’d tell them the same thing. 1 am not a racist; as Ed Guity called me and the other members of the Senate who seemed to oppose him. It’s just that I don’t agree with his views. Separation won’t solve the problems that Mr. Guity finds existing. 1 really think the answer is to work together. If it can’t be done in this strange, distorted land called UB, then how will we do it in the “real” Guest Opinion by Richard A. Siggelkow It has come to, my attention that a recently adopted policy by The Spectrum now precludes publication of paid advertisements announcing visits by military recruiters to this campus? The present instance involves a Marine Corps notice that its recruiters would be interviewing interested students on a given date. Apparently the rationale to reject the item was that such ads previously had “offended” some readers, leading The Spectrum staff to bow to pressure, and letting political feelings block reasonable access to different points of view. I have no desire to discuss the relative merits of our military establishment, and 1 imagine that the courtsajthough 1 am not absolutely certain rule in favor of The Spectrum's certain “rightT accept to refuse to advertisements. However, it is precisely because of the exercise of this censorship power by the editor amt his staff that the issue is so critical. The concern here is also not with potentially libelous or “pornographic” material, but refers to a modest, paid advertisement about a professional opportunity. While°~such advertisements may not be perceived by. some as related to the First Amendment, I submit that they do fall within that arena. Censorship suggests that certain news or advertising can be deemed improper and rejected without comment or explanation by those charged with the dissemination of items that concern the campus community. We should always be concerned, no matter the issue, when any individual or group of persons authorized to establish policy superimpose their own values on others. Such a reputation will jeopardize the credibility of the student- controlled press, and nowhere is freedom of speech more important than on a college campus. Nor can freedom of expression be limited to one point of view. This action may well violate the rights of other students, whose contributions in the form of student fees directly support the publication, and who may be sincerely interested in a military career. We should feel as strongly about this if only one student in the entire community is interested in learning about this matter, since he or she could otherwise be denied the freedom either to take advantage of, or ignore, the offer. Many student editors erroneously think the • Bill of Rights applies to them. There is no such creature as a Constitutional freedom of the press that applies to editors; the Constitutional freedoms instead defend the rights of publishers. If a campus newspaper is regularly published or subsidized in this case, receiving significant support through student activity fees levied through granting actions of the student government and collected by the institution these “freedoms” should not lightly be denied the student body. The student editor, ip such instances, does not have any inherent rights. The source of financial support determines who is the actual publisher. If the newspaper were sued for any reason, the student government which authorizes support money would likely be a party to the suit. Damages, if any, wduld be covered in part from the previously allocated mandatory student fee resources. 1 maintain that a student press should be completely free and operate outside the control of any group, including student government. The Spectrum would best be sustained completely by outside advertising and should not be dependent on any student fee system for support, the newspaper has the obligation to keep its readership informed about any newly adopted restrictive policy. It would be wiser "to separate the newspaper from the school and let the editors have their — - - freedom, along with a taste of responsibility as well. Many of America’s greatest college newspapers are published by corporations that arc financially separate from the institution. This includes.the Harvard Crimson, Michigan Daily, Cornell Daily Sun. The Daily lllini. The Wisconsin Daily Cardinal, and several others, but these are in a decided minority compared to those financially supported or subsidized through student activity fees. They also do not receive free rent, light and heat. We should abhor secrecy in any form. It would also be more open and honest if the editor and staff decided to run the notice, while simultaneously editorializing, if this is their judgement, against such types of future advertising. This would at least offer the University community a chance to respond loan otherwise completely restrictive policy that clearly infringes upon the rights of the sponsoring readership. Siggel'kow is Vice President for Student Affairs and a Professor in the Faculty of Educational Studies. All religions considered The criticism: JSU President Allan Clifford was figure was cited last year to suppqrt another JSU demand. THIS FIGURE IS WRONG. Other than the fact that an appeal to percentages in matters of religious holidays has no real relevance, the percentage of Jews on this campus is 11.8%, based on computer read-out sheets provided by Admissions and Records, Roman Catholics make up 38.4% and Protestant 17.4%, while No Preference is 17.9% Perhaps it would be more appropriate to have off Yom Kippur instead of Columbus Day. Certainly no professor should be allowed to put any pressure, real or subtle, on any Jewish student who misses class due to religious observances. But we must be ever a'Ware of all religions and their holidays, regardless of the percentage, because it is just as meaningful to persons involved. quoted as saying ”... in a University where the (Jewish?) population makes up approximately twenty percent of the student body.” A similar Rod Saunders Campus Minister To the Editor. On Oct. 4, 1976, an article appeared entitled “JSU protests classes on Jewish high holidays.” While the issue itself may indeed he worthy of support, there is one question and one criticism that needs to be made. The question: Why was the protest made at a time far too late to have any real affect on the “Calendar?” This timing suggests a questionable political pressuring. The Calendar committee should receive some praise in its planning of this year's Haster-Passover/Spring Recess, which is so planned because of discussions with religious representatives two years ago. Gallery 219 ’he Editor. I was extremely upset over the letter sent to The 'Spectrum by William Bernhardt, former UUAB Visual Arts Chairman. The least Mr. Bernhardt could have done was give me the opportunity to speak to him about his resignation. Mr. Bernhardt was chairman for approximately two weeks. He came into the office three times. Each time to complain about the money that was given to UUAB Visual Arts, Mr. Bernhardt knew about the budget of the Visual Arts Committee when he took on the job. SI,274.00 is not chicken feed. A lot can be cjone with that money. 'That is why we originally picked Mr. Bernhardt. He was very enthusiastic and willing to bring in art exhibits at little or no cost. 1 personally asked if he could bring student exhibits to this'school. My idea was that there are many art students who need a place to exhibit their work. Gallery 219 is definitely the place. In the past the Visual Arts Committee has fallen into disfavor among the majority of U.B. students. Very few people realize that there is a Gallery on this campus. Sub-Board J, realizing this, has decided to make a last effort at keeping the Gallery open. This is a probationary year. By quitting, Mr. Bernhardt has further hurt the Visual Arts program. Acting Visual Arts Chairman Steven Parr in one week has done a superb job. He has already started programming and has gotten together a committee. If Mr. Bernhardt would have worked instead of complained, he could have produced favorable results. One thing for all of us to realize is that this is a student run Gallery. We are using limited amounts of student fees. GALLERY 219 is not the ALBRIGHT KNOX!. Jeff Lessoff University Union Activities Board Division Director world?

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

The president-elect may announce that his Cabinet will be available to answer questions in Congress. Fritz Mondale recommended this before he ever thought of running for Vice president, in his book “The Accountability of Power.” And Jimmy Carter, we are reminded by professor Philippa Strum, of Brooklyn College, said the same thing in his “Wiry Not the Best” I believe that it would be helpful here to have members of the cabinet appear before joint sessions of the Congress to answer written and' verbal questions, preferably with live television coverage, for the whole nation to view.” Apparently the two men arrived at their common opinion" independently.

Rochester took the State title. A pre-match prediction slated the Bulls for thirteenth place, and did not expect to see one Buffalo runner in the top fifteen, sp the team’s performance came as a pleasant surprise.

Ryerson was only 26 seconds behind winner Bill* Orlando of Oswego, and his time of 27:18 for 5.15 miles was very good, considering the course was muddy, and it was snowing. Bulls coach Walter Gantz called Ryerson the best long-distance runner on campus, including students, faculty and staff. ‘‘That’s a tremendous accomplishment for Ryerson,’ Gantz said.

Both ' times, he finished ahead of runners who had beaten him earlier in the year. Mike Fischer was Buffalo’s second finisher, and 26th overall. Almost seventh The Bulls finished only a few points out of seventh place, and Gantz felt that if it hadn’t been for some poor service in a local restaurant, Buffalo might have been seventh. The Bulls were supposed to eat breakfast at 9 a.m. on Saturday, but service was slow, and so the Bulls ate too late. In addition, the Bulls have no depth, which also hurts when one runner or more have a bad race. “Unless everyone on the team runs their best race, we’re in trouble,” Gantz said. The next (and final) test for the Bulls will be at the IC4A Championships in New York City later this month. However, since the team’s $1000 budget is nearly exhausted, several of the Bulls’ runners may have to chip in some of their own money in order to compete. �Sportspaige by Paige Miller Sports Editor The women’s athletic program s undergoing some very big ;hanges this year, some because of rlealth, Education and Welfare’s Title IX, and some because of personnel, changes at the start of he year. The biggest change in jersonnel was the naming of Jetty Dimmick as Director of Women’s Athletics. Dimmick ormerly had been the women’s ennis coach.. (She still holds that josition.) Dimmick’s primary objective ifter taking charge of the Women's program was to write a jhilosophy, to give the program lome direction. In the past, it had rad none. One of the things which the tew philosophy discussed was the evel of competition that the earns would try to obtain. Vhereas men’s teams compete in Mvision I (the strongest division) xcept for hockey which is hvision II, there are no divisions or women’s teams. “The women /ould like to play the level of ompetition that allows us to go o local, state and national aurnaments,” Dimmick said. This means playing the stronger teams instead of merely local teams, to save money on travelling. “We really have upgraded schedules,” out Dimmick noted.' “We’re reaching out and expanding.” She cited tennis and volleyball as two teams that have 4one a lot of travelling this year to play top notch meals as men’s teams get, and money to hire their own trainers. In other areas covered by* Title IX, the women have equal access to facilities and equipment. Men cooperative The men’s program has not fought these changes. “The attitude in this department has opponents. been very positive towards the Another thing the program’s women’s program,” Dimmick said. “At this time, the spirit of new philosophy calls for is balance. Instead of spending large cooperation is really good to work sums on certain teams, and with.” comparatively little on others, The most visible change has each team will receive about the been in the area of public same amount. (Teams with longer relations. For the first time this schedules or larger squads will year, a press guide for the naturally get more.) “We’re trying women’s program has been to offer educational opportunities printed, and distributed to DUE to students,” Dimmick said, “and advisers and local high school six teams are better than one.” guidance counselors. There are also programs for requires In addition, that by July 1978, the womfcn volleyball and basketball games must be receiving “equitable” for the first time. “We’re charging people a dollar to get in,!’ funding in relation to the men’.s program. This does not mean Dimmick noted. “We felt we had equal funding. The men’s overall to give them something for it.” budget should be approximately Related to this, Dimmick said 50 percent greater than the« that the women would be trying women’s since the men have nine to do a more professional job at teams and the women have six. home events, in order to make it Already, steps have been taken more enjoyable for the spectators. in the direction. The women now So far, only volleyball has have money for the same type of changed the format of its home Betty Dimmick matches. Dimmick said that volleyball coach Peter Weinreich was primarily responsible for this. Among other things, Weinreich has begun a pre-game clinic to get spectators involved in-volleyball, hired ah announcer to introduce the teams, and raffled off volleyball T-shirts home at matches. And although Weinreich didn’t plan this, the team has up come with some crowd-pleasing comebacks. Weinreich indeed has done an outstanding job. He is only a part-time coach (his full-time job is high school guidance according to counselor), yet 3234 MAIN STREET Near Winspear 8326666 DOaUt 8 rvliSter f ' • 22 Dimmick, he has done a full-time job, and a very professional one. IN addition to promoting his sport, Weinreich has guided the Bulls to a 13-7 record so far this year and a berth in the New York State Championship Tournament. It’s good to see the women’s program making such big strides. The one thing Dimmick would still .like to see is a staff of full-time coaches (only three of the six women’s coaches are full-time), but with the aid of Title IX and the cooperation of the men’s program, she may get ft.

The wolf, one of the more prominent of the animal species threatened by extinction, was discusse; in a program presented by the Buffalo Animal Rights Committee (BARC) in the Fillmore Room Wednesday. BARC presented a lecture about wolves, featuring “Rocky the Timber Wolf,” John Harris, of the American Association for the Preservation of Predatory Animals, informed the audience that legends and fairy tales have distorted the wolf’s image, perpetrating that nasty reputation of the “big, bad wolf.” Stories of wolves devouring innocent little girls and eating whole flocks of sheep have filled the minds and imaginations of children for centuries. The wolf is actually a relatively peaceful animal who is afraid of human beings and will not attack unless its life is threatened. Unlike humans, it will never kill for the sake of killing, but only when it is in need of nourishment. Wolves eat in packs and feed on herd animals, usually the weak and the president young who are incapable of caring for themselves. Thus, they play an important role in the ecological chain by eliminating those animals who are a burden to the herd and Would have a low chance of survival Ancestry Eve Fertig, a member of the presentation committee acquainted- the audience with the lifestyle of the wolf by providing background information on the wolf’s ancestry and development. Millions of years ago, the first early form of the wolf pr 0 to-wo1ves, lived in the southern portion of North America. They were divided into two species, the red wolf and the timber wolf, also known as The arctic silver wolf. Due to glacial movements, some wolves fled to Asia and Europe via intercontinental bridges, extant at the lime, while others, trapped by the glaciers, remained in southern North America. Coming in contact for the first time with colder climates in Northern Europe, the arctic wolf subsequently adapted to these climatic changes, becoming more like the animals we know today. Their silver coloring became white, blending in with the snow as a camoufalge, its legs became longer, and it grew larger in order to adapt to the more formidable prey found in' the northern — latitudes. The red wolf had trouble adapting to its new environment and in time it became extinct. Today there are only five hundred timber wolves surviving in North America, mostly in Michigan and Minnesota. The leaders of the pack enjoy privileges not extended to the others. Only the king and queen wolves are permitted to couple during the annual mating season nature's method of birth control. Unless one of the pair is prematurely killed, the dominant line will remain pure. The leaders will be the first to eat after a kill, however enough meat is usually left for the others. Nature’s reason - for granting the pair these privileges is that the welfare of the pack is highly dependant on the dominant members for the protection and security. Sad ending Fertig ended her speech with a few lines highlighting the movement to protect wolves. A movie, effective in evoking sympathy for the wolves’ plight, was then shown. Especially beautiful was a filmed narrative beginning with the birth of a litter of wolf cubs, following their growth to an age where they were ready to leave their mother. A charming moment in the film captured the four cubs playing together and was met with enthusiastic exclamations from the audience. The mood of the film quickly shifted when it ended by stating that only one of the four cubs would reach maturity, showing one of them in his death agony as a result of a bullet wound. The highlight of the evening came when Rocky, a real arctic silver wolf, was led on to the stage v Spectators were allowed in groups of three to pet the wolf. Rocky left the stage due to his fear of the crowd. Few of those who left still fostered their fear and image of the “big bad wolf.” 2 Michigan A in tradition Football a time-honored by Brett Kline Feature Fditor but be touched by the team spirit visible on every street corner and at least on home in every bar — Football touches the life of every student in Ann Arbor. Even those who profess ambivalence to the Wolverines or to organized collegiate sports in general (and for many football means nothing but a traffic problem) cannot help dates The city of Ann Arbor and the are University of Michigan specially related to each other, the partly explains which tradition and importance of the football team.

No other institution or industry so dominates the character of the town. The campus is fully integrated with the so-called downtown area. There are some academic halls and closely grouped dormitories together to form the center of campus known as the Diag, but other major academic buildings, dormitories, fraternities and sororities, and modern fifteen residential towers are story stores, among interspersed restaurants, real estate brokers, city and Washtenaw County buildings and residential quarters.

Joining Headrick were Alan Canfield and Robert Reiss, Law School Admissions officers, and several law school alumni. Headrick, who holds a B.A. degree from franklin and Marshall College, a D. Litt. from Oxford LIniversity. an L.L.B. from Vale, and a Ph.D. in Political Science from High costs > Stanford Experience provides expertise Jjri response to a question about the performance of Buffalo graduates on the Bar Exam, Headrick cited the 1975 figures which* indicated that 82 percent of the students who successfully completed the preAribed course* of study here went on to pass the Bar Exam. "There is a high correlation between performance in law school and success with life exam.” he . According to the roughly 2.400 applications that were received this year, around 800 students had some type of pre-law experience in or outside of the classroom, said Headrick, asserting that "experience provides expertise." "Don't expect to make a lot of money at first. It’s a practical ambition to want to make some money, but only a small percentage of those who graduate from law school actually go on to become rich.." After Headrick’s initial remarks, the floor was opened for questions. A student asked what effect a prior arrest and/or conviction would have on admission into this law school. After some deliberation. There are sometimes months of preparation involved in building a defense and the actual trial can take only a few days." he lamented, adding that he “once spent about five months preparing a case, only to have it decided within a matter of days." Regarding tuition, Headrick stated that a S2000 bill could be expected by in-state students, with State tuition assistance and scholarships available. Out-of-staters can expect to pay about S3000 with no financial aid. All students should anticipate added expenses for books and other sundry University, started the proceedings by asking the question . . . “Why be a lawyer?" “Take a good, cold, hard look at yourself,” the recently appointed dean and make a realistic continued, “. . assessment. If you think you are genuinely committed to a very rigorous course of study, then, by all means, apply," exciting than a court room confrontation. Ho\vevef. he stressed that the Perry Mason and Pettrochelli do not in any way indicate what the practice of law is really like. Headrick and his staff agreed that any past run-ins iwth the law would have.no impact on admission, but warned that the New York Stite Bar Association has the authority to make their own decision whether, to accept or reject an applicant, regardless of that applicant's expertise in the legal field. Enormous potential Headrick radiated a great deal of enthusiasm about the potential ot the Buffalo Law School becoming one of the best schools in the country. Since the State of New York has assumed the management of the UB law school, there has been a tremendous spirit of innovativeness, he items. explained. Headrick feels that it is important for students to have a say in the functioning of adlled.' A s I u d cm in i| u i r e d a b out t h e proportion of women in the freshman class and was informed that there has been a percent increase since l l)70. Headrick then said that even 'though admission to the SUNV at Buffalo-Law School is open to students from all oyer the country, a largeproportion of students come from Buffalo. Acceptable Criteria Law School Admissions staff member Robert Reiss responded Fliss 22 to a question about the criteria for acceptance used by this University. Index numbers from standardized tests, grades of undergraduate Thomas Headrick degree of difficulty of undergraduate studies and other taetors are considered. "We've found that generally, the harder the courses the applicant has takes, the better he does in law school." Reiss suggested. “Statistics have shown," Headrick added, "that semi-committed law students are usually failures when it comes time to practice law in the real world." endeavors, Headrick, even after years of experience, feels that there is nothing more SA Task Force refuses to support College s petition The Student Association (SA) Academic Affairs Task Force passed a unanimous resolution Iasi Monday condemning the actions of President Robert Ketter in closing Social Sciences College (SSC) in July. However, the resolution also said the Task Force did not find any of Ketter's actions "illegal," and therefore could not support a SSC petition which charged illegal procedures were used in the and College's termination. mediate de ma n ded im reinstatement. Former SSC Coordinator Howard Kling expressed dissatisfaction with the resolution, contending that Jhe Task Force had accepted Colleges Dean Irving of the Spil/.berg's version circumstances surrounding the closing of the College. The Task Force resolution was passed in response to a SSC request that SA support the College demanding petition reinstatement. The petition said political motivations were behind the closing and denounced the entire college chartering process. In studying the request, the Task Force last week heard t e sI i m on y SSC I r om representative Rubin Weeks and Barbara Howell, author of the Minority Report of,the Colleges Chartering Review Committee. The review committee had issued two reports last May on Social Sciences College, The majority report reflected the opinion of six of the eleven Committee members. The Page two . minority report written by Howell was signed by two other members Two of the review body committee members abstained in .voting on the future of the College. Divergent conclusions The minority report basically echoed criticisms included in the majority report, but reached divergent conclusions as to what the College could do to improve itself. It called for the immediate closing of the College, since it had done little to rectify problems cited in previous evaluations. The viewed the College's report inaction as proof that it would be new to meet any unable conditions the Review Committee might impose. The Majority called for however, report. under certain tentative approval conditions, one of which was replacing the College leadership. Ketter accepted the minority report in June after consulting with his "Academic Cabinet." Great difficulty Testifying in front of the student Tusk Force. Howell said there was great difficulty in obtaining information front the College. She contended that the record of the College past indicated it would not be able to reform. Howell was concerned about the fate of money formerly used to fund SSC. Howell said that the Committee hoped that the money would remain in the Colleges, and The Spectrum .

One Task f orce member asked Howell why Kelter waited until the summer to close the College. She responded.-"It could be jnst what you’re thinking." giving credence to charges that Ketter closed the College in June when relatively lew students are at the University, thereby diminishing the likelihood of protest. However, she indicated that it might have been because "we submitted our report so late in the Questioned later. semester Task force Chairman Andrew Lalonde pointed out that the recent SA referendum on Social Sciences College showed that students strongly supported the College, reinforcing opinions that the closing was unpopular and might have ignited protest if carried out during th* regular academic year. When asked by Task Force members how Keller's acceptance of the minority report alter consultation with his academic cabinet could be legal. Howell that indicated the Review Committee was a purely advisory body, and that Ketter is-permitted to do whatever he sees fit and proper. the school. Unfortunately, budget cuts by the State have made it more difficult to provide all the services that are demanded. Classes are overcrowded and many students who might be able to successfully complete .the program are cut in the applications process. Unlike undergraduate:prpgrams, there is no major in law school, said Headrick, stressing flexibility. When responding to inquiries about job opportunities,_he said a placement office has been opened and we have received positive feedback. “There are opportunities in many fields for a competent lawyer,” he added. A male undergrad asked Dean Headrick to comment on the difficulty that might be expected if one was to go to law school and try and keep a marriage together. The inquiry was met with uproarious laughter.

Riverwalk will link downtown Buffalo to downtown Tonuwanda and provide easy access to recreational facilities along the waterfront area. It is the lirst stage in the proposed . redevelopment ol the entire Niagara riverfront. According to James Carr. Executive Director ol the Urban Waterfront Advisory Committee, the concept lor the development of the waterfront is seen as an extension of Fredrick Law Olmstead's plan for Buffalo, which began in the second haJfof the 14th century. 11 is design included a network of parts .and connecting thorough fares, as evidenced in areas such as Delaware and Humboldt Parks connected by Lincoln. Chapin. Bidwell and Humboldt Parkways. Intertrail link-ups Riverwalk will connect such recreational 1 facilities as the trie Basin Marina, LaSalle Park. Broderick Park. Isle Viera and Niawanda Parks. Furthermore, the Rivcrwall is seen as a nucleus for a system of trails extending to Canada (the Bruce Trail), to Albany (the Barge Canal Trail), and to the Appalachian Trail System. When the project is completed, it will be possible to make a seventy-mile round trip route along the Riverwalk. and back to Bullalo via the Canadian route. The Riverwalk will be about fifteen leet wide and at various" points will follow existing roadways and railroad Tire first step The project will be financed by sources such as Block Grant. Lcunomic Community Development Development Act Grants, the Slate of New York, Federal Bikeway Demonstration Program Grants, and Water Conservation Fund Grants. Unfortunately, according to Can. an initial request for S625.000 for a demonstration project, stretching from Vulcan Street to the Barge.Canal, was turned down by the federal government. He feels, however, that, the total S2!4 million requested from the federal government will come through eventually. Waterfront loses to RR Indeed, development of the waterfront will revitalize an a re a Unit was once the center ol the region s commerce. With the closing (if the I tie ( anal, however, and the shill in transportation emphasis from water to rails, commerce began to move ‘away, from th.is original huh to various points throughout the region. The riverfront soon became a neglected portion of the area having limited access to railroads, steep hills, and'the interTerring presence of the Niagara Thruway. According to Carr, the idea ol the water!rout's redevelopment has been around for a long tithe but has been latent. "Grandparents have come up to me and said that thev’vc been thinking about the area lot years, said Carr. SA executives center on minority Only recently.''however, have government officials given ihe thought much recognition. In l l)75. the Niagara River environmental Plan was adopted by the Regional Planning Board, iThis plan included a program for increasing pedestrian access to the riverfront. The Urban Waterfront Advisory Committee was created later in the year by joint action of Buffalo and Brie County. They were urged to be "tough and forceful" in promoting the preservation and renewal of the waterfront. tracks. Other portions will be constructed on and below the Thruway .and on platforms above the river. In all. it will be one continuous, uninterrupted route, that will serve not only bicycles and pedestrians, but crosscountry skiing in the winter.

The proposal calls for a minority ;ilT;iiis line with the Senate urging that tt be given substantial funding. Heated debates ensued between those supporting and those opposing the proposal. Senator Rick Birdsall opposed the resolution, saying membership is open on all committees.-S.A. Minority Allairs Coordinator Ed Guity contended that although the committees are technically open, “for years and years we've been alienated from, these committees because we’ve been made to feel that we're not wanted Fairness Stib-Board Director Jon Roller said the organization's goal is to provide services catering to all. such as health care, "You re now asking to modify Sub-Board for minority interests." said Roller, who later charged that the proposal was calling for a separation in the University community. Others arguing against the proposal agreed. SA Student Affairs Director Lee Penes claimed that the proposal was not asking for separation.-, but "lor some measure ol fairness.. SA President Steve Schwartz maintained. "It is a fact that minority students are not involved in the committees. Unless minority students are given the opportunity we won’t have minority input. This proposition won’t hurt anyone." At this poiiit. Ld Guity added. “I believe the people here are nervous that something wrong will be done. We're not out to take anybody, we're just trying to get our fair share of the University." After liver an hour ot debate a roll call vote was taken. The proposition passed by a margin of 18 to 15.

Marvel Comics publisher Stan Lee engaged in a whimsical time, impromptu discussion of how Marvel Comics and, at has become a multi-million dollar per year business enterprise. "If this sounds like a sales pitch for Marvel, so be it.” quipped Lee last Wednesday while describing the essence of the Marvel superhero as one of cynical reality. Whereas a comic character produced by a company such as National (who sells Supermini ) would wear a costume of long underwear in public an,d no One would notice, a Marvel hero same story line over and over again, which was geared to the average six-year old child. Lee hated the typical team-up of comic characters who got along well together, never had problems and had enough money' to get them to wherever a crisis was brewing. Therefore. Lee. and artist Jack Kirby, created the Fantastic Four who suffered through real life problems during their exploits. Lee established; “there will be prime time, live action series about Spiderman. It will be heavy, rich, meaningful, dramatic . , and it'll probably flop." Spiderman will also have his own nationally syndicated newspaper TV, a . strip beginning January. I.

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

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

These alliances became the target of terror groups such as the KKK. which were fornfed by the old plantation owners, in order to regain their power, f.hey enacted the infamous Jim Crow laws which made the coming together of black and white in anyway. ;j crime. Rape was the most effective weapon to create the division. Rich while women were pul on pedestals, while poor Mtile women lived in poverty in return for the privilege of being the symbol of pure white womanhood, the precious property to he protected 'by while men. I very black man was depicted in the white communities as a savage potential rapist, who must be kdpt under control at all costs. Today, many of the old rape laws have been translated into new slatules which still maintain the racist nature of the older laws. They still provide for the oppression of black .peoplty.and the legal lynching of black men. in the courts. The long struggle for civil rights in this country, struck some serious blows to the system of racism which has plagued black folks for so long. The gains made in the bO’s did not eliminate racism, but only, pul it on the defensive. Singe that time we have seen a revival of racism and a counter-attack launched by racist forces in this country. recent years a new rash of rape charges brought against black men. many limes in the absence of any evidence. Many people would deny the fact that many innocent black men have been framed-up on rape charges. They lack the understanding ol what happens when a while woman reports shewas raped by a black man. I he police set out to find any black man. and the old pattern emerges. I he old stereo-types come to mind t-hat “all blacks look alike anyway;’’ so somepound of black flesh must and it doesn’t matter whose. In a case where a whitewoman reports she was raped by a white man. police'don't set out to 1 1 ncl' ilist any white mani [hey must have some evidence, some facts w hich point to a particular’man as (Ire rapist. A black man accused of raping a white woman is at a distinct disadvantage, and not only in the south, as many people believe. Racism rs functional all over the U S. and Buffalo. N 't . is no exception. Racism may be there has been Rich Korman — Woman. The pattern which has developed from the racist use of the rape charge is very interesting. The laws do not protect Black women. 1 he general assumption is that when a Black man rapes a Black woman, it’s no crime, and when a while man rapes a black woman, it is his right. In cases where womeg have used force to defend J themselves against rape, they are often treated as criminals. The case of JoAnn Little is ''probably the most famous, where she killed a white prison guard who attempted to rape her. By the same token, rape laws do not protect all while women either. I hey only protect those women who allow themselves to become instruments to be manipulated by society. These consciously either or while women unconsciously accept the notion that they are the property of while men. I hose white women who realize that they are not protected by rape laws, find that the administration of those laws, seem,to,put them on trial instead of the man accused. So wluil were rape laws designed lor? They were designed to, use the hypocrisy of "the protection of women." to keep black folks in their place. The crime of rape first became a capital offense in the pre-civil war era. as part of The difficult question of a separate minority concert line is really one of whether the student government writes off too large a portion of the student activity fee to special interest groups, or whether this policy of financial apartheid is best for all concerned. We don’t think so. We don't see how the student government can deny the minority students a special concert line in a year not especially noted for SA's or to deny a some what more sophisticated ii> northern cities, but that does not negate it's existence. Although mob lynchings were predominant in the south, the courts of the north provide a means for the legal lynching of black men in the north. Whether an innocent fnan is hung from a tree, incarcerated for the rest of his life, he is still the i victim of injustice. My own case is a clissic example of how rape and racism is used to imprison„innocent black men. All the elements are present which could lead to anofher railroading such as that of the attempt to.frame the Martin Attica brothers. I have the deepest sympathy for the women who have been raped, but the fact of the matter is that the rapist is still at-large. The officials with the help of the news media are attempting to dupe the public, and especially women into believing that the rapist has been apprehended, when in reality the real rapist is free to terrorize. The concern that has been generated around this case is the result of people being to recognize how the so-called criminal justice system works against poor people. Many people have a clear understanding of how rape racism is used in this country and have joined in my struggle for vindication in an atmosphere where racism is not allowed to to come to a prevail. 1 am not conclusion as to my guilt of innocense, that -is up to the jury-. What I am asking.for is a chance to clear my name at a fair trial. People who assume that I will receive a fair able trial because the constitution guarantees that right, hold a very naive conception of w;hat justice actually is in. America. They fail to recognize the double standard which has developed with the Criminal Justice System. This very shallow perspective will undoubtedly lead many people to stray from the real issues in my case, which have been' down-played for obvious reasons. The general feeling of apathy is people being djsplay many which counteracted by the work being done by the Committee to (Tear Kenneth Johnson and many other progressive groups and individuals. We are also fighting against the racist attitudes of many other people in our society. We are waging our battle through a process of education, shedding Light on the fallacies of the justice system. Poor people are fed up with being the victims of injustice when it is justice that they seek. Poor people are tired of being,the victims of brutality and many other criminal acts. The frustration of poor people with the American sy-Uortu of justice is coming to a head and creating a strong feeling of solidarity among them. The support behind my efforts to receive a fair trial is a strong expression of that feeling as well as an answer to racist accusations against me. In conclusion, I hope that my position on what this case is about is clear to the Reader. I have- no interest in discrediting, the victims, undoubtedly they have been raped. I am only interested in proving that they have made a mistake as to the identity of their attacker. I sympathize with all women and their concern for the increasing number of rapes occurring. Kape is a vicious and deplorable crime, and women have a right to be outraged each time a rape ocuTirs. I must offer a word of caution especially to white women, in their attempts to rectify the rape situation. The crime of rape must-not he allowed to blind you to the realities of how the crime is used to oppress the poor. To defend-a black man accused of this crime is not to deny that rape exists. It is to acknowledge an objective understanding of history, justice, and racism and their relationship to poor people. ice should be deeply a concerned with the case ol Kenneth Johnson. When I finally go to trial, ft Is essential that people show that concern by attending and observing. The racist criminal justice system must be made aware that the people are watching everything that goes on. and will tolerate nothing hut 'fairness, liven those who are skeptical will find that my brutal arrest and subsequent charging with rape, is a ifcgross miscarriage of justice.' I he evidence that I will present at the trial will prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that I am innocent.

What manager wouldn t have wet dreams about piloting a team with an outfield of Joe Rudi. Gary Matthews, and Reggie Jackson? What owner wouldn t have nightmares about paying them'* Too bad no team can sign more than two ol the twenty-lour tree agents available. Included in their ranks are about ten all-stais and another four or five qu.tyy ballplayers. But how interesting it is to examine the jockeying that is bound to go on after all the players arc sorted out and signed. Take the Yankees. They are the odds-on favorites to get Bobby Cirich., but just to make it interesting, let's say that George Steinbrenner is in a spending mood even lor him and the Yankees grab Wayne Garland as well. Then the Yankees could strike a bargaiij with San Francisco that would send Fd Figueroa and Dick Tidrow to the West Coast and bring, lo and behold. Bobby Mincer, back to Yankee Stadium's right field. With a healthy Flliol Maddox in center field, Mickey Rivers could be left as a designated hitter. Now before sending in any letters, realize that this is all frivolous fantasy. But there has to be some sort of wheeling and dealing that will go on once the free agents lose their freedom again. It's not the Yankees, but the Mets that really hold all the interesting it’s because of their overall team imbalance. For instance, let’s say the Met front office opens its rarely-used wallei and coaxes Reggie Jackson to sign.-That could pave the way for a trade with, perhaps the Boston Red Sox. The Mets could give up Dave Kingman, who might easily hit 75 home runs in Fenway Park, and Jerry Koosman, ripe for a trade after last year's bcst-cver performance. In return the Mets could demand Dwight Fvans for starters. But then things get interesting. It the Red Sox can corral Grich. they could throw in Rick Burleson along with I'vans. This all means the Mets would have an outfield ot Jackson. Lee Ma//.illi. and bvans. and an infield of Ld Kranepool. Felix Millan. and Burleson. Or, maybe Grich could move to Shea and the Phillies could otter Reggie Jackson enough to go back to his hometown ol Philadelphia. Then the Mets might offer Koosman and Millan (The Phillies need a second baseman because they lost Dave Cash in the tree agent dial!) and in return get Garry Maddox and surprise! Tug McGraw, Very often, though, the needs of teams make it difficult for them to deal directly with each other. For instance one team may be willing to give up outfielders for pitching, and although another team needs outfielders, it can only afford to give up infielding. This sets the stage for one of those intricate three-way deals. For instance, just for argument’s sake, say (inch signs with the Mets, Gullett with the Yankees, artel Jackson with the Dodgers,.Now the Mets can give up Koosinan and Bud Harrelson to the Dodgers, who send Bill Buckner and Bill Russell over to the Yankees who put I d Figueroa and billot Maddox on a subway over to Queens. Now the Mets have a top shortstop, and a class outfielder, the Yankees have top shortstop and a third class outfielder, and, the Dodgers have an improved outfield, weakened infield, and a top led handed pitcher. Whew. It’s going to be a real shame when things finally are worked out can get because the speculation could go on lor months. The tiade talk wise to extend the would be fans, maybe baseball so interesting for the extra weeks ol trade few the season. A playing trading season and cut talk would stimulate countless more barroom brawls than a tew extra games during the course ol the season. ■Or better yet. invite the fans to listen in on the trade talk.

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

The decision by Transportation Secretary William Coleman involves the enforcement of a 1966 law requiring some sort of passive crash-restraint system in all new autos. Coleman will decide what type of device will be ordered into production and when. Passive restraints, unlike safety belts, work automatically in a crash, requiring no prior effort on the part of the occupant in order to be effective. At this time, the air bag seems to be the most practical and efficient device capable of compliance. If installed in all new cars, its advocates say it could save thousands of lives annually in serious crashes. Undergrads $40.00 plus tax Grad. AA.F.C. $45.00 plus tax J Faculty Staff $50.00 plus tax Alumni $53.00 plus tax Safety feature in cars could lower insurance • J The air bag is a simple below the dashboard upon another auto. Consequently, soft cushion of air rather windshield. mechanism which inflates instantly from the car’s contact with a fixed object or the front-seat passengers are thrust into a than a steering wheel, dashboard or Reports solicited In a telephone interview last week, Clarence Ditlow III, Executive Director of the Center for Auto Safety, said Secretary Coleman, as he did with the SST, will have aides draw favorable and non-favorable position papers on which he will base his decision. Ditlow also said that there is a moderately good chance for a favorable (pro-bag) decision. He also said that eVen if Coleman’s decision is against air bag implementation, a new Transportation Secretary under the Carter administration could modify the decision if he deemed it proper. The big four auto makers have opposed the air bag since its development in 1965, on grounds that the bag would generate excessive increases4lTSiito prices and limit the buyer’s freedom not to be protected,/ General Mmors and Chrysler Corporation have estifnated the cost of full front-seat protection, including lap-belts, at $300 per unit. However, John Z. DeLorean, a former senior executive at G.M., has estimated the cost at $197. Other estimates bring per-unit cost down to $120 when mass-produced. Insurance rates Insurance companies which favor the system almost estimate that insurance costs could be pared by as unanimpusly mufch as 30 percent for bag equipped autos. (Allstate has already offered to reduce its rates by 30 percent.) Even at a moderate rate reduction of 20 percent, the device would pay for itself in six years, at the average policy-price of $200 per driver. Those with above-average rates would realize even greater benefits. The possible savings generated by the device in both human and economic terms, are massive. Ditlow, in a hearing before Coletnan last August, testified that “the total accident costs that could be avoided in '1975 terms by implementing advanced passive restraints would be $10.4 billion.” This figure reflects savings of 8000 to 10,000 lives, and prevention of 500,000 serious injuries per year through use of air bags. Tom Ban — — Legal aid expands to offer more services The Aid Clinic, which provides free legal services to university students, has been reorganized into the Student Legal Services Group. This move, according to group director David Brownstein, has enabled the organization to expand the scope of its operation. Some of the most common cases that Legal Services handles are landlord-tenant relations, drug arrests, and traffic violations. Legal Services also utilizes law students to represent defendants who are arraigned before the Inter-Residence Judiciary or the Student-Wide Judiciary. Brownstein said that under the new system, a Legal Services lawyer could represent a student during both an arraignment and a However, before the reorganization, Legal Aid lawyers were allowed to give legal information only. Other areas of legal services that will possibly be expanded are educatipn and public interest services. “One of our goals this year will be to give the students a greater insight into the judicial system and their own legal rights,” Brownstein said. With a staff of about sixty volunteers, Legal Services hopes to .publish pamphlets and conduct workshops on such subjects as students’ rights, women’s rights, rape prevention and landlord-tenant relations. Radio shows aiid seminars on these and other topics are also planned. Save money Legal Services is considering bringing class action suits to test the legality of the.Mandatory Health Insurance Fee and will also attemptto get tution deferrals for students whose tuition assistance awards have been delayer. For the first time, Legal Services will be providing lawyers for various student organizations such as the Student Association (SA) and Sub-Board. Previously, these organizations hired attorneys at their own expense. SA President Steve Schwartz said he hopes the new setup will save money and be more efficient. Brownstein pointed out that the program is still pending approval by an appellate court, but emphasized that he did not anticipate any problems with approval and is expecting final word any day now. In addition to its office in 340 Norton Hall, Legal Services will soon open a new'base at the Amherst Campus in Fillmore 177. Students desiring more information are requested to visit either office or call 83 1-5275.

However, this game meant no tomorrow, so both reams came out sky high for the second half of the ockey Bulls to open action.

The two teams have met three times in previous years, with the St. Lawrence Saints winning all three matches, the last an K-4 victory last season at Canton. N.Y. In tlrat game, the Saints showed the Bulls an. awesome offense, firing 4K shots at Buffalo netmindci Johnny Moore. Light different players scored for St. Lawrence. Despite losing ten players fr'om last year's potent squad, the Saints don’t appear to be any less dynamic. Leading the offetise will be seniors Dan Weir. Paul Gallagher, and Ron Harris, sophomores Ky le Smith, Dan Walker and Kevin Dougherty and junior Mike LeBlane. Honored players Gallagher has been named the Saints' assistanfeaptain. based on his non-stop hustling and solid forechecking. Last season Gallagher totaled eight goals and eleven assists, lor nineteen points. Woking along with Gallagher as assistant captain will be Dougherty and sophomore Doug Crawford. The captain of the 1976 St.-Lawrence squad is senior defenseman Kevin Campbell, appointed by coach Leon Abbott on his seven goal, twelve assist performance of last year.

Hands full What all of this actually means, is that, the Bulls are going to have their hands full in trying to cope with the Saints, who have ten limes reached the NCAA finals. St. Lawrence opens their season tonight, against Canadian based Concordia College. Last year the Saints were the recipients of 6-2 and 9-2 drubbings given out by Concordia and should not fare much better this season. A loss to Concordia on opening night should put the Saints in a somewhat angry mood upon arrival in Buffalo. In the Bulls favor. however, is their past performances against Division I clubs. While they have not defeated any of their “senior opponents, the Buffalo skaters’always seem to play well against upper division learns, and lurid their own. It the Bulls can get good goaltending from John Moore (as they usually do), and some strong performances from their inexperienced defense, then a close contest , could be in the making. Prior to the Buffalo-St. Lawrence matchup will be an exhibition between ’the North Tonawanda Tondas and Depew. minor peewee teams from the Buffalo area.

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

The major upset was Capt. Kenneth Braun's win over Sheriff Mike Amico. Throughout his campaign, Braun hurled charges of nepotism at Amico. Both candidates conceded that the press played a crucial role in/the election. Amico blasted the press for the "lies" that cost him votes, while Braun thanked the media for its support. Pictured left to right: top Sheriff Mike Amico, Sheriff-elect Kenneth Congressman Jack Kemp, Assemblyman Arthur Eve; Braun; above below Erie County Democratic Chairman Joseph Crangle, City Court Judge-elect Wilbur Trammell. — — — The economy was clearly the major issue in the Buffalo area during the 1976 campaign, as President-elect Jimmy Carter ■ and Senator-elecf Daniel P. Moynihan carried both New York State and Erie County for the Democrats. The Senate trace was marked by increasingly bitter campaigning as Moynihan portrayed Buckley as a millionaire unconcerned with working people, while Buckley referred to his opponent as “Professor Moynihan,” repeating such past United Nations proposals as “benign neglect” out of context. Moynihan managed to pull a divided Democratic party together by attacking Buckley’s opposition to federal programs favorable toward New York State. Western New York's most bitter race resulted in a major upset, as Kenneth Braun (R-L) defeated incumbent Michael Amico (D-C) for Erie County Sheriff. Amico blastsmedia Amico, former Chief of the Narcotics Squad of the Buffalo Police Department, was first elected in 1969. His 1976 campaign included the house to house distribution of 200,000 copies of a campaign newspaper, the Star News, in which he emphasized the department’s record, especially in combating drugs. In his concession speech, Amico lashed out at local media for what he called “fabrications” about himself and his administration. Sheriff-elect Braun won by 109,000 votes despite a Democratic registration plurality of 50,000 in Erie County. Primarily relying on a radio campaign, Braun criticized alleged nepotism and politicking, and a “lack of professionalism” in the Sheriffs Department. In races for State Supreme Court. Delores Denman, William Ostrowski, Frank Kronenberg and Thomas McGowan each won 14-year terms. Denman, who had by far the highest single vote total, attributed her support to women voters. While the economy issue was stressed in all local congressional campaigns, incumbency was the overriding factor for the victors. Kep. Jack Kemp (R-C) won re-election in the 38th District, which encompasses Southern and Eastern Erie County. His platform emphasized the need tb create jobs by cutting individual and business taxes. Nowak wins Rep. Henry Nowak (D-L) easily won again in 37th District, covering the City of Buffalo. Nowak buoyed his campaign by citing existing federal continued on page 3 Photos by Rick Vazquez �Mixups galore Voter registration problems this of thousands which resulted from student mail voter registration drives across the absentee ballots liont apparent!;. understaffed and unprepared bottle county Boards ol I lections.

Friday, 5 November 1976 by Harold Fleisher ballots, added to earlier foul-ups s. have aneereci blame SA for their being unable with the suidem-run voter registration here denied several students the Spectrum Staj) Writer The phone numbers' and addresses ol one out of every two dorm student students are incorrectly listed by the recently published nee problems In the past, this University published a direetory which listed students as well as faculty. However’, last year, the directory included opportunity to vote This year the directory was published under the auspices ot the Student Association (SA). SA fell the directory should contain the students' addresses as well as phone numbers. The project was financed by Mark Teitelhaum. who was the coordinator of the student directory. Its estimated cost" of S30.000 was covered by advertising. SA incurred only a burden of approximately S675 which covered the cost of postage and label production. The The problems stemmed from several causes Registration forms were either incompletely or incorrectly 'tilled at out the SA-SASU voter registration table at the ID line on the second floor of Norton Hall, untrained students where the filing attempted to supervise of hundreds of forms a day. Schwartz attributed the foul-up to the great number of students and "too much help" in supervising the process. from NYl’IRG Spokesmen indicated’SA had turned down an offer'by NVPIRG to have the SA registration aides trained by professionals Additionally, two boxes with about 200 voter registration.forms were overlooked in the SA office. They were discovered two days after the last day to register Schwartz said SA tried everything" to have the forms accepted, but were unsuccessful. He added that mistakes were inevitable where so many students were involved. Many students also claimed they given were incorrect information by spokespersons in the SA office in the confusing days of the registration drive. SA sent out a letter October 20 informing students of the foul-Up. "We send our apologies for the oversight and we at SA are hoping that possibly our next drive will see you volunteering some of your time and interest so this incident will not happen again." The statewide student voter registration drive began as a group effort whose main participants SASU, and their w e re representatives in SA. and the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG).

OPEN SUNDAYS 12 Noon Til 5 pm Most corrections in directory incorrect Circulation average: 15,000 Hear ye, hear ye To eliminate the chance of a mistake being made in the directory, posters and handbills were distributed throughout the campus in September advising students to correct their data forms so that proper locaJ addresses and phone numbers would be listed. When lour thousand students responded, it was erroneously believed that the bulk of the mistakes had been corrected. Out of 1600 updates received from dorm'students. Teitelbaum said at least 800 of these were actual corrections. Therefore, the actual number pt incorrect addresses should be 2200. In an attempt to perfect the student directory in the future, plans have been made to have updateTOrms waiting for students when they receive their 11) cards. Furthermore, the Admissions and Records Department intends to verify all compute.! readout sheets obtained from the Housing Office in the future. Correct readouts are imperative not only for directory purposes, but are needed tor all sanctions ot Admissions and Records" operations. At least its cheap In spite of its frailties, Tehelbaum termed the directory a "useful and beneficial tool for the entire University community." He also answered charges that students were not receiving their money's worth by indicating that the cost of the directory actually -was “seven cents per student, or .001''/ of the Student Activity fee." Teitelbaum added, "The vast majority of the students were very happy to get it." Assistant Director of Admissions and Records Richard Canale discussed the cause of the mixup in the listings of 3000 dorm students that were programmed during the.massive room assignments made by Housing this summer. He explained students received addresses intended for the residents who preceded them on the computer readout. Therefore each student's name and home address was correct but their addresses indicated rooms assigned to students directly following them on the computer sheet. Residence Hall Director. Rich Schocllkopf scoffed at Canale's reasoning. He suggested the cause of the failure was associated with /ip codes. Hall assignments were coupled in the computer with zip codes, and when a computer programming error was made, students were listed as living in rooms that were designated for other students from their own home town. He added however, that this was just an assumption, and the case was certainly not closed. Although these two assumptions conflict, either one could be the true cause of the error that resulted in the massive amounts of mistakes contained in this year.'s directory. Since each hypothesis is believed to be correct according to its respective source, studies are still being made to determine the true cause of the error. a WllSt£r , Near Winspear 8326666 OPEN 24 HOURS MONDAY NIGHTS - TAKE Y0UR CHOICE DOZEN DONUTS of your choice with I.D.

Although Carter's victory was by no large margin, he fashioned it without the support of the key midwestern industrial states which have swung so many close elections in the past. C arter received only 48 of the 108 electoral votes in Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, and Missouri. He made up the difference, however, by sweeping the South and establishing footholds in the big electoral states of Minnesota, Pennsylvania, and New York. Traditional barometers of election trends were also in constant conflict. Connecticut, where a Republican victory was supposed, to indicate a good night for Ford, was contrasted in the early returns by Carter’s win in Texas, a state which was considered a key to victory by both sides. Illinois and New Mexico both went for Ford, marking the first time since World War I that those two states did not go with the winner. One reason for this "break of tradition" may stem from C arter’s political views wiiich are not considered As a result. C arter ran better than most Democrats in the rural and farm areas, normally the bastions of Republican support. However. Carter's views tended to alienate many city dwellers, thereby balancing his gains in the rural areas yet altering the traditional Republican and Democratic power basis.' The final tally of 2 l>7 electoral votes for Carter to 24 I for Ford incidates that not only was the election considerably closer than the election of 1772, but the margin of victory was smaller than in the recent tight races of I960 and 1768. This fact, coupled with Carter’s .classic. Democratic. somewhat'larger margin in the popular vote tallies (Carter won by three percent.' more than either Nixon in l l J68 or Kennedy in l‘)60) shows that if Carter lost in a big electoral state, he lost by a smallermargin than Ford. In the l)5th Congress, no major shakeup will occur. The Mouse of Representatives as well as the Senate will remain solidly Democratic, putting the Presidency and the Congress under control of one party for the first time since Lyndon Johnson's full term in office. However, there were some changes in both houses. In the Senate.

One reason is that fewer students are either returning to or entering the system. However, this year SUNY administrators lowered the ceiling on students enrolled statewide, as state-appropriated funds to the system were cut.

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

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

To the T.Jitor There are approximately 27,000 students, faculty and employees in (His University, and out of thousands of thousands of people living in Buffalo, only eight couples participated in a Muscular Dystrophy Dance Marathon. In a smaller town like Syracuse, which has a smaller population than Buffalo, the participation in their Marathon was even greater. I ask myself. "Is it that people did not know about the Marathon or is it apathy?” 1 came to the conclusion that it is apathy. My (iod! How can people be so apathetic in a big town like Buffalo!!? There can be no excuses, because the Marathon was publicized weeks before it took place. I feel people should feel ashame w'hen there was a cause in Hand. The Marathon was billed as the “Dance For Those Who Can’t.” Isn’t it ashame when only eight couples participated'.’ Now that have the opportunity to criticize, Buffalo is one of the most apathetic towns I have ever experienced. WhyBecause the people just don’t give a who about issues and events that needs I attention. Mow can we have a progressive social change it people don’t care.

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

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

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

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

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

Instead of Marilyn Monroe, his dedication cut is to Edith Pigf, the opera singer, with "Cage the Songbird." His closest ,to an out-and-out rocker (and the only one amazing!) is the long concluding song on the album, "Bite Your Lip (Get Up and Dance!)." It's nice .to see the usual Elton John calling cards on Blue Moves. Thre is one song, though, that is an eerie near-masterpiece.

But there is something missing, assets that have been lacking in Elton's simplicity and the last four or five albums silly or schemes in his avoidance of elaborate songwriting and production. Put on Tumbleweed Connection or Madman Across the Water and’ there is Elton at his most panoramic and powerful best. He is most effective when there is a light piercing touch, the minimum amount of multi-layered executions and fooling around It's noticeable, happily, that Elton is-'on the upswing and doing something different, taut well done this time. And instead of a Pretty Hype Cover, we have the artistic, pseudo-impressionist painting, "The Guardian Readers" by Patrick Proktor. Hopefully, all this "Elton John I Want Your Hide" blitz will subside and we'll have Blue Moves to discuss intelligently and quietly. Good move, Elton and Bernie, Drew Reid Kerr of Tower of Power opened the show, exhibiting their inimitable brand of jazz-oriented, disco-style soul.

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

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

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

Most of the money made at the convention is spent on expenses and bills. Michael Hopkins, president of the University’s Comic Book Club, is a bit upset, “Man, we’re selling Howard Number One for $5 and people are buying them at that other table for $10.1 guess people enjoy getting ripped off.” In a room adjacent to the dealer’s room, the conversation is heated. “Do you want to fight to the death. Do you want to yield." “No.” “Aw, c.mon, what’rya chicken? Bob’s a chicken.” The fracas is over a game involving computers and medieval fighters. Dice are rolled to assign physical qualities such as strength and dexterity, to the imaginary battlers. Using this information, the computer and the player’s logic involve the two fighters in a malay to discover who is victorious in the end. Technology has combined with imagination to yield reality.

The Student Association of the State University of New York (SASU). a coalition of SUNY student governments, is offering SUNY students internships in Albany for the spring semester. Students can receive full credit and a S250 stipend working in the SASU Albany office as a Legislative Intern, a Communications Intern, or a University Affairs Intern. The internships offer students exciting work experience ajid a chance to witness and participate in the political process, SASU is fighting for a low-cost, democratic and accessible University, so students who work as interns also get the chance to join in the struggle.

The Task Force will wait to see in which direction the majority ol complaints arc aimed in order to determine appropriate targets for investigation. There is a possibility that no one will complain, in which case the investigative committee will be disbanded. Lee explained.

Wine and cheese passed When asked if the Student Senate would be investigated for allegedly defeating an amendment al a recent meeting which would have prohibited senators from spending SA money on wine and cheese al their own meetings. Lee indicated that the issue had not as yet been resolved. He explained the purpose of wine and cheese parlies is to acquaint new senators with one another. At that meeting, someone suggested that if wine and cheese were to be eliminated, all food for SA activities should be cancelled. This suggestion became part of the. amendment which was defeated, so the original issue ilsell was never voted upon. The Task Force will probably meet on or before Monday. November 8.

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

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

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

However, when closely questioned by reporters, Amico reluctantly admitted hiring more than two relatives including his nephew Alan Amico, his niece Mary Ellen Ervolina, and another nephew. Robert Giovino. All of them are no longer on the payyoll Investigation squad Sources within the sheriff’s department have confirmed that least three of Amico’s at his employees, including Sgt. brother-in-law Michael Ervolina and undersheriff Mike D’Amico’s father-in-law Michael Those same sources have also confirmed reports that Schlesinger has used an unmarked sheriff’s department Car for ski outings at Kissing Bridge.

But after his admitted life-long friend Mike Amico took office, Benevento was hired as a full-time sergeant on the sheriff’s narcotics squad. Benevento says his only police experience was as an MP in the service and he admits never having any formal training in narcotics prior to his employment with the sheriff’s department. He is still lax employed by the State Department on a full-time basis. Sources inside the department have also reported that deputies have been campaigning for the sheriff while on duty and using the county vehicles to do it.

According to Deatr of Undergraduate Education Dr. Walter Kun/. most of the students in the program are adults enrolled in Millard Fillmore College (MFC). Kun/ stated that the program was extremely limited in si/e and scope, adding that only about forty associate degrees in Business Methods and Liberal Arts are awarded each year.

Secondly, Streiff said that the associate degree is awarded as a stepping stone to night students who often take as long as eight years to earn a Bachelor’s degree. Division of Continuing Education Dean Donald Brutvan defends the Associate degree as an important academic option that every university should have. Brutvan added that the growing number of part-time students coupled with the fiscal crunch in the community colleges make it clear that university centers must have all degre options. No damage The case against the Associate degree program here is argued by local private and community colleges who fear the competition of a large university in this area. MFC officials claim this argument is revived every couple of years although they did not seem to know if there had been any recent complaints.

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

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

Klein explained that the recovery from the serious recession of 1974-5 had been “pretty good” until this summer, when the situation shifted abruptly. He felt there was little doubt the economy" is on the “sour side,” noting that almost every accepted barometer of economic activity indicates trouble. The of August-September rate improvement of personal income slowed rapidly, while Department of Commerce revealed the level of real take home pay of American workers remained virtually unchanged, according to Klein. The real take home pay statistic indicates the changes in purchasing power of the workers’ income. If this figure remains stable, it will invariably slow the growth rate of the economy. He felt that it was because the particularly important recovery has been centered on consumer spending. Campus Editor In his “last performance of the campaign,” Lawrence Klein, head of Jimmy Carter’s Economic Task Force, analyzed the state of the American economy and discussed the Carter plans for curing its ills. He spoke to an interested audience in the Fillmore Room last Capital spending Orders for durable goods, materials used in the production process, fell in July, indicating that August and September capital spending has fallen. Klein insisted that a strong level of capital spending is needed to bolster consumer spending for full economic recovery. The Stock Market, which had shown signs of strength until the summer, has been generating negative signs, according to Klein. The length of the work week for those who are employed, has dropped recently. In addition, Klein saw no improvement in the generally high level of unemployment The American trade balances, which were very strong last year reflected a deficit of S2.5-3 billion. Klein felt this was because the United States is now importing - Lawrence Klein Thursday night, in a program sponsored by the Student Association Speaker Bureau and the Undergraduate Economics Society. Klein, currently the Benjamin Franklin Professor of Economics at the University of Pennsylvania, is renowned as a pioneer in the development pf econometric models used in forecasting economic trends. He is a leader of the Wharton forecasting model, one of t he most widely accepted models in 40 percent of its oil. compared to the 30 percent importation rale it incurred before the Arab oil embargo. Klein expected that the October levels ot industrial production will be down from previous months due to the effects of the Ford Motor Company strike. Retail sales for the fourth quarter will also drop, according to Klein, another result of the strike. A survey indicated that consumer confidence in the economy took a serious drop in October, he-added; /eaui/a. Cyclical economy Klein said that since World War II, every four years has seen a cyclical turn in the economy (a slowdown or recession) with the only the exception being Kennedy-Johnson Vietnam years. He felt the Ford Administration’s slow moving economic policy will lead us to this cyclical downturn, charging that Ford's suggestion to cut both taxes and spending will cause a recession, rather than strengthen the private sector as the Ford people insist. Klein that Ford charged is balanced budget recommending a multiplier effect in reverse. The balanced budget theory indicates that when the government initiates equal increases in taxes and spending, it will lead to a corresponding rise in total income by the same amount. In reverse, tax and spending cuts of the same size will lead to a comparable drop in total income. Klein attacked the Administration’s policy of “benign neglect" towards the economy, adding that it either has a poor understanding of the trouble this neglect can cause, or it is deliberately aiming for a recession. In assessing the role of the Economic Task Forge in the Carter campaign. Klein felt it serves as “service technicians.” Carter presents the group with the target and gr ound rules and the Task Force then takes the suggestion and evaluates its feasibi lity.

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

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

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

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

I'll force you to by restricting what you are able to do." I bis was, as Sub Board Chairman Jon Roller,has pointed out. an "unprecedented" move.

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

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

The best programming may apply to the vast majority of white students but certainly not the blacks. When there are only 2 movies scheduled tor minorities in UUAB and the so-called minority concert is two-thirds white, who the hell is he kidding? Also, UUAB’s explanation as to why the minority line was cut is still under attack from all minorities the funkadelic concert namely. I he & UUAB state that there were damages to Spectrum which is a damned Clark Hall in the area of $1800 that the damages were lie I have been told $300.00 and the building was insured. I have been informed that there were only 1800 tickets printed how does UUAB respond to this? By saying up that there was an oversale of tickets. I hey didn’t mention the fact that it was due to their “expertise” that there was an oversale. Also, someone should talk about the tact that UUAB incurred losses of SbO.OOO in their ettorts to program “good” concerts. I ve heard about the people who knocked down doors and scalped tickets to get in. So, we don’t want any advisement from UUAB, etc. You know who you are. We will do any help, our own programming now and in the future. You just keep plugging your concerts and keep losing $60,000 because we’ll make it without you just like we have done before. my assistantship and leave any time; New York State promised to pay for my education; it is paying for my education, and I think that teaching my one class per semester to the best of my ability is the least 1 can do in return. That isn’t slavery; it’s the gravy bowl. It's not exactly living in the real world, either; but neither is GSHU’s welfare-state mentality and its fantasies about our total helplessness and our supposed inability to make decisions tor ourselves. So let’s quit our bellyaching and get down to Jhe tough business of teaching within an admittedly imperfect and sometimes rather shoddy system instead of complaining because the tree ride could be smoother still. Hrad Dcamcr - Ora Clark I-rank A. Watson Monday, 1 November 1976 . The Spectrum . Page nine �McFarland and energy To the Editor. The article on the candidate forum which appeared in Friday’s The Spectrum omitted a heated discussion between State Senator James McFarland anfl several students which took place at that forum. The issue at hand was the position McFarland has taken on recent energy legislation. Why should students even be interested in energy? Well, students pay bills and figured in there somewhere is electricity. Students, like other people on limited incomes, are finding the higher and higher costs of electricity harder and harder to pay. Another reason for students to be concerned with energy is that they breathe polluted air and at least 2/3 of the sulfur and nitrogen oxides found in that air are placed there by the energy industry. James McFarland has been instrumental in the defeat of several energy bills which are listed below. Home Insulation Bill would have provided poor people with loans to insulate their homes. Loans which would pay themselves off in several years with the energy saved by the insulation. a bill which called for Nuclear Responsibility clean, safe energy. Lifeline a bill which would have reversed the present rate structure so that poor people would no longer supplement industry’s wasteful useage of - , — - energy. McFarland’s position on these bills caused one consumer to comment, “One. of the greater environmental actions to occur on Nov. 4 would be to have J. McFarland kicked out of office.” ' Kristen Marshall Sorry To the Editor. Your coverage of “The Citizen and the Law, A Western New York Conference,” as reported in The Spectrum of 20 October, was in error. The moderator of the Victimless Crimes Workshop was attorney Paul A. Cambria, Jr. of Buffalo, not Michael J. Brown. Richard M. Moskowitz Rape, racism To the Editor. Questions of rape and racism are likely to arouse feelings, so perhaps the belligerent and muddled response by Melodi Shapiro to my letter concerning the Kenneth Johnson defense (Spectrum Oct. 18, 1976) can be excused. What cannot be excused, however, is her labelling “a blatant lie” my statement that the defense has been canvassing neighbors of the rape victims to discover any personal habits which could be used to destroy the characters of the helpless victims. In fact, I live upstairs from one of the rape victims. About a month ago a man entered our house, identified himself as a private investigator for the Kenneth Johnson defense, and asked the very questions 1 quoted in my previous letter. There were a number of people present, all of whom will confirm this fact. Ms. Shapiro, immediately after calling me a liar, stated that she would like to know where I obtained this “false” information. 1 suggest that she should have asked this question before making her libellous slurs. Apparently she is not as interested in facts as she is in accusations. I must reiterate that I abhor the manner in which Johnson was arrested. He has the right to present any exculpatory evidence to the jury, and to be afforded every opportunity to clear himself of these gruesome charges. I object only to Johnson’s defense tactic of attempting to defame the characters of innocent women raped at gunpoint in order to shield himself from being brought to justice. Ms. Shapiro has taken a page from Mr. Johnson’s book. Just as Mr. Johnson’s defense tactic is to attack the characters of his accusers, so Ms. Shapiro’s vitriolic letter labels me a racist and a blatant liar without responding to the issues 1 have raised. The closest she came to dealing with the issues in her angry and incoherent response was her baffling reference to Joanne Little. I welcome further response from Ms. Shapiro, but I suggest that more careful and reasoned thought and less slander are necessary for a full understanding of these strong , complex problems. Michael Kaye Page ten . The Spectrum . Monday, 1 November 1976 TRB. from Washington Round about 11 o’clock on election night we will get the results from Dixville Notch, New Hampshire (unless a rival town slips in ahead); they were first in ,1972 when they plumped 19 to 1 for Richard Nixon, and they have been organizing for months. If the Dixville Notch Republican vote is reduced this year, as seems likely, the great media projection machine will start grinding for the night’s work; Walter Cronkite, albeit he wears a smile, asks his audience whether this betokens a “trend” and before long statistics and tabulations will come pouring in as the hungry univac swallow it and who knows the result? Maybe we will get to bed by one. Not in 1960, though; at 2 a.m. there was a two million majority for Jack Kennedy, which melted to a million a couple of hours later. Along with the milkman came alternative leads from straining reporters all over America: one projecting Kennedy, one Nixon, one a toss-up for the bulldog edition. It wasn’t till 12:33 p.m. Eastern Standard Time Wednesday that Minnesota fell to Kennedy and it was over. Dixville Notch is a n ski area town and brings the circle to where the 1976 show started; a thousand eager citizens last January stamped in from the snow and sparkling stars and near-zero weather to the pastel green-and-white cinder block high school auditorium at Conway, not far from the Notch, in a scene out of Thornton Wilder’s “Our Town.” Ronald Reagan threw off his fleece-lined mackinaw to denounce the Washington “buddy-system” and undercut President Ford (whom Manchester Union-Leader publisher Bill Loeb called “Jerry the Jerk”). Meanwhile over at Durham, N.H. in the first of America’s 30 primaries the “Man Nobody Knew” was telling an audience that he was born-again, that he wouldn’t tell them a lie, and that he wanted to make the American government as fine (pause), as honest (pause), as decent (pause), as honorable (pause)... as the American people. The American presidential courtship dance is the longest in the world and nothing is more amazing than the way supporters find logical arguments to defend the illogical system. The surprising thing is that it works in its peculiar way even in this year in which voters seem more pessimistic than usual about their ability to make things happen. They have had the aid, from the beginning, of course, of the mass media and the political plenum of press pundits. How else could ceremony progress? The ambiguity of the primaries brings in the press who must not only report but act as referee and interpreter, and 22,895, which was more than Udall got (24 percent), or Bayh (16 percent). So he was a sensation. The camera crews had been prowling the drifts for weeks. New Hampshire has knocked out presidential candidates; George Romney, Edmund Muskie, Lyndon Johnson. Would it happen again? The public looks at the primaries as a spectator sport and doesn’t know the names of the players; if there is a contest somebody must say who wins and that function falls to the press. In 1972 it arbitrarily said Muskie must get at least half to remain in first place; he got 46 percent (more than anyone else) but the anchor men in TV studios and pundits in newsrooms said that this wasn’t enough; although he won, he lost. LBJ’s showing in New Hampshire in 1968 was below expectations, too, and both men dropped out later. Carter got a low handicap, however, as a newcomer, and was decided to have won. He went on to Florida, the state adjacent to Georgia, and beat George Wallace, 34 percent to 31 percent. He was proclaimed Front Runner and champion. And why not; In the unique scramble he had shown ambition, audacity, and ability, and was nominated thereafter at Madison Square Garden by hopeful but still-wondering delegates. So now we wait for the last act and look back at went before. Past elections have been remembered by phrases:' the Cross of Gold speech; the boos that became known as “Bronx cheers” at Madison Square Garden in 1924; Teddy’tf “Bull Moose”; Harding’s “Normalcy”; “Prosperity is just around the corner” of poor old Hoover; FDR’s “little dog Fala”; Goldwater’s “in your heart you know he’s right.” How about 1976? It has been a silent year.. These are nol:' the type that emit verbal what sparks. It was the first year that the government helped campaign expenditures, one of the few genuinely revolutionary changes in American politics in modern times. Although far from perfect, and yet to be applied to Congressional races, the system is a vast improvement over four years ago; in 1972 some 153 domors between them gave $20 million to the Nixon campaign; today 32 million Americans checked off the $1 contributions for this year’s campaign. After Watergate 15 big corporations pleaded guilty to making illegal contributions Gulf, Goodyear, Phillips Petroleum, American Airlines, Greyhound, and so on in some cases the money was “laundered,” first in Mexico. I think we will never go back to that, whatever changes are made in the new system. What phrase do we remember 1976 by? It is the year where Reagan constantly nudged Ford to the right, to drop “detente,” to drop Rockefeller, to pick Bob Dole as running mate. (Reagan himself picked Schweiker.) It is the year that Reaganites introduced the bullhorns at Kansas City, when the economy had a “pause,” when abortion was an issue, when there was a 28 minute gap in the TV dabate; yes, when for the second time in history rival candidates stood on the same platform and confronted each other.

Anzalone is considered to be a major factor in the Bulls’ overall success, and is termed “an excellent hockey player,” by Buffalo coach Kd Wright. Other notable players up front include Ray “Toughie” Gruarin, Mike Dixon. Rick Costello, Jack Kaminska. and Chris Bonn. The top man between the pipes for the Bulls is senior John Moore. Moore has been the big honcho in goal for Buffalo for the past three seasons, and is playing as well as ever. Behind Moore is newcomer Mike Bagocus, who is expected to see a lot of action and provide the Bulls with capable relief in the nets. Goaltending depth was a questionmark last season, but appears to be solid for the upcoming campaign. With the offense intact from last season, and good netminding even better, the Bulls only worry spot may be on defense. If Tony Scaringi and the freshmen live up to expectations, then post-season play will be almost a certainty for the Buffalo skaters. by Larry Amoros Staff Writer Spectrum Offense, defense and goaltending are the three main Components of an ice hockey team. It is generally necessary to get good performances from all three if the team is to win. This year the hockey Bulls may only have two out of three in working order, and that could very well put a crimp in their plans for the HCAC Division II playoffs. The Bulls boast a powerful, if sometimes inconsistent offense, very solid goaltending, and an untested rookie defense. The latter is the key to Buffalo’s success this season. Five of last year’s starting blueliners have not returned to Buffalo leaving team captain Tony Scaringi with his work cut out. Last year Scaringi provided a lot of scoring punch from the backline, hut this year he will have to concern himself primarily with stabilizing his freshmen teammates. Working with him are Dave Golda, Tim Hervey, Paul Pitman, Dan Gemmer, Gary Trumpfheller, and Tony Vesona, all newcomers to the Bulls squad. Men burst women's bubble by Joy Clark Staff Writer Spectrum Several men who were not allowed into the Bubble on Thursday because it was Women’s Night protested and only left at the strong insistance of Campus Security Many of the men relied on a schedule in Clark Hall which said that the Bubble was open for basketball on Thursday. When they arrived, they were told that it was Women’s Night, and had to leave. They became angry, and re fused Their comments ranged from “Where are all the women?” to “When is it Men’s night?” Despite numerous requests from the recreation workers to leave, they stayed and some even began to basketball.

Since most women were inhibited about playing on the same court as men, tire Recreation Department closed the Bubble to men on Thursday nights, and the women could use the facilities in any way they wanted.

Lack of advertising It seems the Recreation Department didn’t even publicize -the event. (Other events, such as The Moonlight Tennis Tournament, were advertised on numerous posters.)

The Board of Trustees arranged for nine students to speak for a maximum of five minutes each. Among the schools in SUNY Regiorl 1 invited to attend were: Fredonia, Geneseo, Buffalo State, SUNY at Buffalo, Brockport and community colleges in the neighboring area. Representatives from this University, unaware of time limitations, originally scheduled to take up all nine spots, until Student Association (SA) members realized there was a time and space factor involved. Subsequently, they relinquished three of their spots to other schools. University issues Among the students who will be speaking on behalf of this University are: Lynn Bittner who will discuss the mandatory fee guidelines; llene Cohn who will determine the effectiveness of Affirmative Action on SUNY campuses; Ed Guity on the formation and status ol the Third World Caucus, and its seating on the Student Assembly; Dan Weissberg on the status of student services; Steven Schwartz who will offer an overall view ot this and Andrew Lalonde who will discuss academics, specifically the implications of the Dearing memorandum which defines the Carnegie Unit as one credit hour per contact hour. Jewish Student Union (JSU) President Allen Clifford will also make an appeal to the Board to pressure the Administration to proclaim Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur as observed holidays. Clifford contends that this is the last and most crucial opportunity for the JSU td win its four-year struggle with the Calendar Committee. Students who wish to make brief extemporaneous statements (no more than three minutes) will be requested to file their names with the hearing registration officer who will be present at the meeting. Time for such comments will be set aside for the end of the meeting. University; The Spectrum State Vol. 27, No. 29 University UUAB pushes next concert despite minorities’boycott by R. Gilbert and Rob Cohen an imminent Despite by the Student boycott Minorities Association Affairs division. University Activities Board Union (UUAB) is intent upon following through with its Sunday night concert at Shea’s Buffalo, featuring black rhythm and blues artist Norman Connors. A general boycott of all UUAB events was declared by afternoon Monday Minority Affairs Coordinator Ed Guity and representatives of PODER and the Black Student Union (BSU) at a stormy meeting in Haas Lounge. The groups were over Sub Board’s irate UUAB’s elimination of minority programming line during budget hearings last August. The allocation was slashed at the collective recommendation ol UUAB’s directors. The minority 'coalition is soliciting endorsements trom Jesse NAACP and Jackson’s Operation Push and has already received a statement of support from the Black Liberation Front at State. Organized Buffalo pickets are planned for the front of Shea’s Buffalo Saturday night with a large turnout anticipated. Guity stated that signs are being printed and that the news media have been notified. minority The is issue programming one ot control. primarily Willing to accept advisement the and “input” on programming of interest to minority groups, UUAB is not willing to relinquish control of funds for such programming.

Guity further declared that, “I don’t see any reason why that line was cut, other than with that the situation resolved. funding could be A UUAB spokesperson declared that UUAB was just “trying to promote the best programming available to us, at the least cost to the student.” If UUAB has ultimate control over all its monies, he explained, prices will be lower since the organization has constant contact with the agents involved.

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

Harris feels that any upset in the normal ozone equilibrium is potentially dangerous. “I’m pleased with the proposed of dangerous phaseout fluorocarbons,” Harris added, rioting that “there are other ways to dispose of a majority of the products now employing fluorocarbons.” Dr. Harris pointed out that Glade Air Refreshner propels its product with carbon dioxide, thereby avoiding fluorocarbons. Harris feels that the two year deadline the National suggested by Academy of Sciences is far too long and that action should be taken sooner. In compliance with FDA requirements, warnings will soon appear on the labels of all aerosol products affected by the FDA’s regulations. The wording has not been worked out, but will be intended to draw attention to the effects of damaging fluorocarbons. It is hoped that this measure, will discourage stockpiling by consumers. Schmidt indicated that there will be no recall of previously marketed products. The phaseout program would be developed on the basis of reasonable regulation and reasonable cost to consumers, he added. s £ J^gre^hd^d^^e^^jrant|| V8 * " ■ ■ VEGETARIAN DINNERS SALADS OMELETS MACROBURGERS FRUIT JUICES OWN BREAD nOUR MM 25 GREENFIELD STREET OPf/V Tuesday-Sunday 11:30- 4:30 Lunch 5:00 9:00 Dinner 9:30Breakfast on Saturday & Sunday 9:00 pm Sunday MM |M| - — Coffeehouse. ■■ ■ B B ■■ �Students meet candidates by Steve Greune Spcclmiii Stall Writer In.cumbants in several positions of lh,e New York State Assembly and Senate appeared in a Voter Information forum Wednesday night in Haas lounge.

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

Buckley ran on a platform of “racism, said Aptheker, cuts in Buckley an social services and increases in the military budget. Terming owner of a multi-millionaire said he is Aptheker “open reactionary,” “monopolies and the Buckley Oil Company who has served the Pentagon” well, Time offers no choice Aptheker said that Moynihan has served both Democrat Johnson and Republicans Nixon and Ford. As Nixon s Urban Advisor, Mo'ynihan told Business Week in 1969 that if half a dozen American cities were to disappear due to the urban crisis, it would not cause “any real regret,” Aptheker recounted. Moynihan was the “chief attacker” of third world nations as Ford’s representative in the U.N., said Aptheker, and he was forced to resign because his “snobbish and racist” remarks made him “universally despised and boycotted.” Aptheker blasted the New York Times for refusing to allow him to debate Buckley and Moynihan, and for consistently ignoring his campaign “If you’re turned off by the Senatorial race between Buckley and Moynihan, you’ve got plenty of company,” Aptheker said. “That’s not choice it’s an insult.” To point up the similarities of Buckley and Moynihan, Aptheker said that Buckley’s brother, William, named Moynihan, “Man of the Year” in his right-wing National Review magazine. Aptheker ridiculed the New York Times for its recent headline, “Economy not cooperating with Ford,” as if to imply that the economy is some strange being with a will of its own. “But this is not for the Times to explain,” Aptheker quipped. Carter’s state, Georgia, is about to execute a prisoner next week, Aptheker explained, and unemployment insurance has run out for many of our nation’s 12 million unemployed. But the Times doesn’t talk about these things, Aptheker emphasized. Instead, the Times screams about the lack of “freedom” in Hungary, Romania, Poland and other Eastern European countries after the Communists came to power, Aptheker said. “But Hungary, Rumania and Poland were free when fascism ruled,” Aptheker asked a — • sarcastically.

Under its, banner, nations have been plundered, record profits have been recorded, and vicious wars unleashed. Aptheker said that this crime of anti-communism “took the sight from the chairman of our party, Henry Winston, took years away from Elizabeth Gurley Flynn and Gus Hall, and is responsible for the arrest of W.E.B.

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

This is that the international union (as distinct from its component parts, the locals) is usually unsympathetic if not hostile to the wishes of much of the membership. Members with these feelings now form a third the tiny side to the negotiations but growing organized voice of the ‘disenfranchised’ UPS Teamster. Tilts voice is raised in its most cogent form by UPSurge, a rank-and-file group of workers within the union who Were sufficiently discontent to create an organization which attempts to force the international into a more militant position when negotiating with the company. The UPSurge slogan, ‘Use the Union’s power,’ is designed to fight what UPSurge feels is the tendency of the international to sell out the membership and settle for terms unfavorable in most respects to the average union member. An example of this Teamster proclivity is in its use of the power to extend contracts. Most Teamster extensions are piade without membership consent or Although almost all input. Teamster contracts ended May 3 1, the Union extended some, but not others, permitting the company to have a part of its operations running at all times. This helps the solve a cash flow company problem it could have had, and facilitates UPS attempts to scab on those who are on strike. .

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

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

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

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

If your special joy is Lina Wertmuller, your joy must surely be doubled, what with at least two (and as many as four) of her films available on local screens for the past month. Then Francois Truffaut's The Story of Adele H., with the luminous Isabelle Adjani, is brought back (courtesy of the Valu 5); it leads one of idealistic inclination to believe that Truffaut's new film. Small Changes, may be here reasonably soon. (Ingmar Bergman's Face to Face, about which I went justifiably overboard last took a week and I retract not a comma of it year and was here for a week, and a pox on the Holiday Theatres for their inexcusable, — — green-grabbing haste.) I never expected to be presenting a South plaza Buffalo shopping as the new local standardbearer in these parts for quality cinema, but the aforementioned Valu 5 appears to have assumed that non-coveted role. And the last laugh is theirs, since they've been able to show major foreign films Consistently and, more surprisingly, successfully. Not just financially successful {in itself the alleged big reason why what local Screens have mostly stuck with, in Paule Kael's neatly turned phrase, "the film equivalent of junk food").

And the upheaval comes when Noiret realizes that the son he raised alone, being a widower is all but unknown to him. To share one's family with a stranger, and to realize that you have, is a powerful shock; it proves to bind Noiret with the local police chief (Jean Rochefort), and its force can be felt by every viewer. For merely not remolding Clockmaker into a sloganeering, didactic political soap-opera, Tavernier shows considerable maturity of judgment; for bringing the human aspect into such sharp focus, and concentrating his energy so effectively, he deserves to be counted among the most assured filmmakers "young" or otherwise. No end of working, effectiveness is owed to Noiret's transcendent work as the honest, questing man whose search for truth literally, and this literacy brings the search out of indeed becomes our own. philosophy into reality For a change.

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

Mere I am again, another physics recitation. 1 take out my homework, which took all week to learn and solve. I feel confident that I know it, because I’ve spent so much time working on it. Others around me don’t look as well. They know', as I do, that coming here will be mental torture and futile. When you pay S375 for a one-year 8-ctedit course, you expect to be taught; you expect help; you expect them to explain facts so you can learn. Well I have learned one thing: don’t expect! I, like many others in the course, have been forced to learn physics on my own with no help. The lectures and recitations are a fascade, behind which lies an abyss of knowledge. Just because there is a body standing in front of the class, doesn’t mean knowledge is being transferred. Here he goes, starting to “explain” the lomework.

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

What I object to here is the erroneous reporting of the facts which Mr. Cohen feels he is free to burden us with. 1 would like to know what constitute “inside sources” and if such “sources” exist how Mr. Cohen would have access to such information? Does he have a “hotline” to the White House? Clearly, this assertion is pernicious and completely unfounded. In the same issue of The Spectrum, Danny Parker writes'a Commentary on the New York State Senate race that is so laden with erroneous remarks and non sequiturs that one hardly knows where to begin a criticism. Mr. Parker points out that both Daniel Patrick Moynihan and James Buckley are more in agreement on foreign policy than domestic matters. Mr. Parker criticizes Buckley’s position advocating a hard line with the Soviet Union. He states, “How many other candidates call for a stepped up defense budget, and an increase in research and development of strategic bombers and Polaris missies?” If it is only Buckley who calls for an increased defense budget, why should we not hail him as a rational man instead of assailing him as Mr. Parker chooses to do. if Mr. Parker can be so free in criticizing Buckley’s position, he should also make his readers aware that two weeks ago Fred C. Ikle, director of the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, stated that the Soviet Union now has in superiority intermediate-range ("regional”) nuclear weapons. Moreover, according to Ikle, “the Soviet Union is now embarked on new weapons programs which will further increase its superiority (Moscow is now in regional nuclear forces. introducing a brand new regional ballistic missle . | .

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

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

The Spectrum For Jimmy Carter There is a Big Question-Mark concerning whether or not the State of Israel, and the Jewish Commonwealth will continue to Survive. To survive depends on many ifs. If they maintain their will to survive as being Jews, if they continue to fashion new tools for survival in response to New Challenges, and if the whole community continues to be a constant factor in History, then the Jewish Commonwealth will continue to survive as a Cultural-Civilized People. But the will to survive, and the ability to respond to challenges will not be enough without a permanent commitment of time. Especially from the University sector where the augmentation of new ideas to fashion new tools for survival must be developed. The time factor especially in days like these are most important. It is especially important that the Jewish Academic Public is made aware of this, and the questions that must be resolved for they are the challenges. Has the Jewish Drama ended, or has there only been an intermission? Has the thesis of a Jewish Destiny turned to bind the Jewish people together as a unified nation through Zionism? Or is the dark gloomy blood trenched curtain of past history is about to fall on this Nation or Peoplehood? Where are the tools needed to insure Survival? They are in you. Should the Nation or Peoplehood stand by and do nothing? No! Should the Nation or Peoplehood stand by and lose the advantage of time? It is now up to you. History is a two-way road for the Jewish people to take one is to retreat into annihilation, and the other is to advance so that the final peace will he achieved. If there is an advance it will only come through your commitments of time and skills. If this is done, then in the words of Issiah there will be “Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near.” But it is up to us all to insure this quality of peace.

Coach Peter Weinreich continued using the one-setter offense, alternating two players at that spot, and was “quite pleased” with this strategy. Geneseo led in the opening minutes of the first game, but after Buffalo took the lead, the was never in doubt. game Freshman setter Amy Ostrin did a great job, while Hilary Schlesinger and Barbara Staebell were there to spike Ostrin’s sets. Barb Fislar supplied the serves, and Sue Trabert made the blocks on defense as the Balls won easily, 15-8. Sue Pels was Buffalo’s setter in the second game, as they scored eight points before C.eneseo knew what happened. Pels contributed with both sets and serves, while Schlesinger and Mary Hvanco were the spikers in the early Geneseo regrouped its forees for a four point rally, but the Bulls were right behind with four quick points of their own. Freshman Dana Chadwick supplied the defense, and Evanco and Pels continued their fine work on offense to give the Bulls their second win of the day, 1 5-10. Geneseo wins one nothing However, is ever perfect, and the third game proved that this night was no exception for the Bulls. Buffalo’s defense failed them entirely, and the Knights won 15-6. The game started out slowly, and five players served before a point was scored, but after the Bulls scored three points, Genesed erupted for eleven quick points. It was too much of a lead to overcome, and Buffalo fell, 15-6. “We had trouble'receiving serves, and they got too much of a lead," explained Weinreich. “We got nervous then, and didn’t play a smart game.” After that, the Bulls regained Candidates psychiatric center as a work/study “training ground” tor aspiring further Hoyt criminologists. stated that there was absolutely this no connection between proposal and the halfway house is that controversy raging in his district: currently interview with The In Spectrum earlier this month.

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

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

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

It used to be in Buffalo, the only bagels you could get were either frozen or shipped from a bagel factory miles away. Many students from New York City have been known to curse this situation, unwilling to accept any bagel except a hot, fresh one from a bagel bakery nearby. Well, the days of cursing appear to be over. Bagel .Bros., a real bagel bakery, opened in July in the Northtown Plaza in Amherst. Now, instead ot having to defrost or toast bagels made in far away places, Buffalonians and transplanted New Yorkers can now enjoy bagels fresh out of the oven. Bronx immigrants Bagel Bros, is owned by two Bronx boys. Bob and Jay Gershberg, who were “brought up on Bronx bagels,” according to Jay.

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

Ratings are based on higher education legislation and range from a low of 26 percent by Congressman Jack Kemp to a high of 100 percent by several members of the State Assembly. The program at this University includes a debate between area candidates for the State Senate and the State Assembly (tonight at 8 p.m. in Haas Lounge), a talk by Ken Braun, opponent of incumbent Mike Amico for Erie County Sheriff of education-oriented candidates. “It is very important for students to consider the information contained in the guide,” she explained, “because this is a critical year for SUNY with respect to budgeting. candidates’ Unless students vote for sympathetic public higher education, SUNY will further suffer.” SA President Steve Schwartz echoed Bittner’s feelings, noting. “Last year upset about cutbacks. everyone got Students can fight back this year by f The law also calls for minutes to be taken at all such meetihgs. which must be made public within 24 hours in accordance with the freedom of information law which has bean in effect for a number of r years. Overwhelmingly approved An aid to Assemblyman Mark Siegel, a co-sponsor of the bill, asserted that such a law was necessary because people realize that “government working behind closed doors, doesn’t work in the best interest of the public.” He said the need for this bill was magnified by the events leading up to as well as the events following Watergate. The bill was originally introduced in 1975. It was passed in the Assembly by a margin of 86 to 42, but was defeated in the Senate. This year the measure was overwhelmingly approved in the Assembly by a vote of 137 to 4, and then passed by a substantial margin in the Senate, with the help of Common Cause, an influential lobby. Under the provisions of the law, any revisions, laws or resolutions obtained through closed door meetings will be declared void. It is hoped that the Sunshine Law will be an instrumental tool in informing the public about the concerns of their state government. Halloween Party ? Prizes for the best costumes.

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

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

An example of such practices may have surraced in the treatment of NWO. As explained in an article this issue, the political opinoins of former CAC officials could very likely have influenced their decision to accept the budget cut they To the Editor. received this year. The NWO contention is that a prior I admire The Spectrum because it is published decision that it was "expendable" may have led to CAC's thrice weekly, a feat 1 realize is very difficult for any acceptance of less money this year.

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

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

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

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

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

The Spectrum . Page thirteen �Boycott of UUAB and that minority students and their representatives should directly control the amount of money they contribute as a group. Student government officials have from time to time been the idea ot to receptive separately-administered student activities. Those who oppose the concept generally argue that fee money to people over handing outside the student government leads to abuses which make intervention by the University administration more likely. This year, SA is asking for input for minority programming, but wishes to retain control. Reached for comment after the meeting, Guity said the reason given in public for the elimination of the budget line was the the incident surrounding Funkadelics concert in Clark Hall students, minority MULLIGAN’S Night Club PR USE NTS- ~ In Concert: —continued from page 1 . . . in April last year, he said.

Guity felt the Funkadelics were the most successful UUAB concert last year. If this was the only thing standing in the way of funding, he said, the situation could be avoided in the future possibly just by staging the concert in a larger auditorium. Lessoff said that there were several reasons the minority budget was cut. Besides the problem with the concert last year, UUAB does not want to relinquish control of any of its programs, he said. Not only will they solicit and accept input from minority groups, Lessotf added, they will funnel income generated by th6se concerts info producing productions, minority more that income is any provided generated.

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

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

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

This “framework” is included in Section 151 of the New York entitled Election Law State Gaining or losing a resilience. which reads, in part: “For the purpose of registering and voting no person shall be deemed to have gained or lost a residence by reason of his presence or absence a student of any while institution of learning.” However, sub-section (b) states that the word “residence” means person a where that place maintains a fixed, permanent and principal home and to which he, ... wherever temporarily located, always intends to return This section of the law has been a prime reason for the many foul-ups, ballot absentee according to.

The funds had been frozen two weeks ago at the direction pf Polity treasurer Mark Manasi.

Review Committee Chairperson Isaiah Bloch denied any such request and asked that Manasi “not use my name as a tool.” Senate spokespersons confirmed Bloch’s statement, and went on to declare that they had therefore not passed a motion directing the freeze.

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

Pardini Spectrum Staff Writer Just how rich does one have to be to defend himself in criminal court? How much does it cost to profess innocence, when the state contends guilt? Private lawyers, on the average, charge anywhere from thirty-five to sixty-five dollars an hour for out-of-court preparation, and two hundred to five hundred dollars a day for actual time spent in coUrt, according to Erie County Bar Association president Vincent Doyle. Exact fees depend upon the complexity of the case involved and the relative skill and experience of the lawyer hired. Before a lawyer will even begin to quote a fee, he will discuss the case with his potential client, the district attorney’s office, and the lawyers of any possible co-defendants in the case. His fee is based on prediction; How long will the case take, and what is its probable outcome? No help This fee, argued Doyle, does not all reach the lawyer’s wallet, much less his bank book. In preparing a case, an attorney must battle the comparatively unlimited expense account of the prosecution. The prosecutor usually will have two or three aides at his disposal for research, in addition to the extensive investigative, arm of the police. The lawyer receives virtually no help from the state in preparing his case, except certain rights granted him by law. The only information given by the prosecution consists of what are called “discovery documents.” These are documents and statements made by his client, as well as the results of any tests relevant to the case. ; ;fl yr Other than this, the lawyer is on his own.;He must find his own witnesses and evidence, while the names of any witnesses the prosecution may have are kept secret, along with any testimony they may offer. Because of this, the lawyer ,is forced to hire research assistants and private investigators if he is to do an adequate job of defense. Most cases simple Doyle stated that a lawyer’s overhead ranges from forty-five to sixty-five percent of the total fee to pay for office rent, staff, supplies, as well as the updating of his law-library, so that he may keep abreast of new laws and recent decisions. He estimated that the average lawyer spends a-minimum of one hour doing research for every hour spent in court. Should the case wind up in court, he figured that up to fifteen hours a day are spent going over what transpires, preparing for the next day, and studying the various transcripts and motions before the court. “Probably seventy-five percent of the cases are relatively simple,” Doyle stated. “They do not require a great deal of research, or a great deal of investigation, especially by those who have been in. practice a number of years and are familiar with the sections of the law that apply.” The other twenty-five percent are complex and involved; he said. Intangible and innocuous activities Abraham S. Blumberg takes a conflicting view in his article, The Practice of l.aw as a Confidence Game, which appears in the Political Science textbook “Before the Law.” “At the outset, the lawyer uses a measure of sales puff which may range from unboudning self-confidence to complete arrogance,” he said. “The lawyer establishes the minimum of groundwork necessary to assure a minimum of haggling over the fee and its eventual payment.” According to Blumberg, lawyers are clearly in the practice for the money. He contends that most of the lawyer’s activities are intangible and innocuous, because they consist mostly of words ol advice, telephone calls, conferences, negotiations, written letters and opinions, and trivial legal manuevers for dismissal of the charge. “They try to keep their clients on the precise edge of anxiety calculated to encourage prompt payment of fee,” he stated. Lees are often collected in installments, precipitating the need for suspense prior to payment. A client hung in limbo will pay more readily than one with a ticket to Sing-Sing. Blumberg sees the role of the lawyer as one of a double-agent, negotiating with both the court and client. It is because of this double-agent status that the lawyer’s degree of professionalism is the brought to question. F.xactly whose end is the attorney serving - courts, No the client’s or his own? money ' in law a Doyle challenges these arguments, saying there is no money in 26,000 were only last year, law career. Of 34,000 law-school graduates paid, in able to find jobs in their profession. “Lawyers are not very well the wealthier members are not they be, and appears what it to of spite as much as a lawyer,” he of society.

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

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

The other debates were characterized by distortions, irrelevancies, personal attacks, untimely blunders, and the subversion of issues to image.

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

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

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

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

Estimates? Phone companies are generally not allowed to use anything other than their own records to check a credit rating.

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

YAF members on key Congressional races, where conservative candidates are facing stiff opposition. of What does it all add up to? A handful cherry hecklers, a score of placards and an occasional bomb scare. And although some students turn out for campaign appearances, the most prevailing attitude towards the election is pretty well summed said, up by a University of Oklahoma student who “Yeah. I saw Carter. He says what everyone wants to hear just like any politician would.” > - monthly charge as a deposit; Under federal law, telephone companies must pay interest on deposits and return them if the person has paid the telephone bill for nine months. In general, a student who gives a higher estimate of long distance or toll calls risks paying a higher deposit. One case in DeKalb involved a student who estimated she would make S40 worth of toll calls and was charged a SI00 deposit. When she returned with a lower estimate, she was charged a lower fee. At the Rochester Telephone Company, which is* not part of the Bell system, the situation is not much different. A series ol six questions is asked of a prospective phone owner which include name. address, employment and income Each of these when answered. quest ions receives either a negative or positive rating from the phone company. For example, it a person has lived at his or her residence for fewer than two years, this is a “negative" response according to the phone company. Full-time student' status is a "positive" answer. The only time student's deposit tee is a computed according to estimated long distance calls is it the student has never had phone service. A Rochester Telephone Company official said that college students arc treated the same way as residents. source data. A lot! The situation is different for the on-campus student at the University of Rochester who is, by virtue of living in the dormitories, automatically treated to a telephone, courtesy of Rochester Telephone's Centrex system serving the UR since 1967. The University of Rochester has agreed with the phone company to pay for campus phone service in one lump sum. When asked for an estimate of the sum, Mary Inis, a centrex operator at the University, could only say “it'sa lot!” with on-campus Students service are issued phone toll-billing numbers resembling credit card numbers at the beginning of the school year by Rochester Telephone. A student cannot elect to .have phone service shut off and in protest, several students turn in their cards each year. There are ways to avoid the deposit problems that are simply kept undter wraps. It a student has had Bell Service in another stale and maintained good credit, he or she should not be required to pay the deposit tee. And in most areas, one does not have to pay a deposit if someone else with.' working telephone service anywhere in the United States will agree to back up the new telephone owner if he or she defaults on payments. A letter of guarantee is required and must be signed by creditable friends or relatives. Some schools have tried innovative ways of dealing with the high cost of phone service. At Gustavus College in Minnesota, there is a college WATS (Wide Area Telephone Service) line that can be used after business hours to make long distance calls in stale. Students have access,to the line from 6 a m. to 8 a.m. and from 6 p.m. to midnight for five minutes each. The Gustavus setup is anexception to Ma Bell’s rule qnd students Will have to put up with deposit fees and high phone rates for a while longer. UFW... —continued from page 4— were made in the Act.

Rotary Field, October 21 Women’s intramural third activities drive Women’s Night at the Bubble may sound like an Erica Jong book Lena Wuertmueller movie, but it is actually the third annual effort of the Physical. Education Department to get Buffalo women more involved in intrumural sports. It is the belief of Gary Montour, assistant director of intramural activities, that women may be reluctant to participate in sports activities because they feel intimidated by the presence of men. The answer may be the. exclusion of men from the Ketterpiller one night a week, a solution which will doubtless upset many of the men who use the ketterpiller on the regular basis. Wendy Baker and Nan Harvey, two physical education students, are presently making preparations for the first Women’s Night this year, scheduled for next or a Thursday. Ramifications In addition to involving women in intramural activities, the event will also aid Baker and Harvey in their study of collegiate sports. If the experiment is a success an effort will be made to organize women’s intramural tennis, basketball, badminton, volleyball, jogging and soccer It is not the first time an event of this type has been attempted in Buffalo. Last year’s Women’s Night met with strong protest from a number of male students. It was their contention that due to the small number of women taking advantage of the opportunity, the facility was n jt being utilized to its full advantage par in h in I. There are a lot of ramifications involved in getting women to ipate,” Montour said. “Men don’t understand why women are ted by their presence. We are making a plea for women to.turn up e numbers to ensure our first success in three years.” see pp. 293-340 Ilmv Co Kuril l(. Spend It, Save It. Invest It.

Monday, 25 October 1976 s B Bui �Sportspaige by Paige Miller Sports Hditor Despite a letter printed earlier this year in The Spectrum suggesting lynching an intramural tootball referee-. it appears that the refereeing this year has been better than in years past. The two people in charge. Larry Wheeler and Steve Allen, are rather proud. “This year's referees are a very good crop.’ Allen said, “They’re more aware of the rules and exhibit better judgment. One of the reasons for the improvement is that each official must now first pass a competency test. The test asks questions about rules and officials’ duties, so anyone who actually reterees a game must be well aware of the rules governing intramural tootball. The test had not been administered in the past. Quality inspections Allen and Wheeler are constantly scouting officials, trying to weed out the poorer ones. Although they don l correct officials while the game is in progress, they do point out errors afterwards. “Consistency is the number one thing we look for,” Wheeler said. a play called one way “We want everybody to make the same calls way by other officials. called the same official should be by one Wheeler noted that most of the officials have been responsive to — Football schedule expan by Don Weiss Spectrum Staff Writer Intramural football expanded its schedule-fast week with many teams playing Saturday a'Mfthen again during the week, so a number of division leaders were able to gain ground on their division foes. In the Thursday 3:30 division at Amherst, the with a 26-0 Budsmen, as Parest Columbia victory over the quarterback John Friedman threw touchdown passes to Jimmy Sullivan and Larry Stoker, and also ran one in. Another game in that league saw the B.S.V. Panthers shut-out Tolchok 20-0 to tie Tolchok for second place. In the Tuesday 3:30 Main Street division, undefeated Quail beat Huth Road 25-6 to hold on to first place. Huth Road was ineffective on offense due to poor pass protection and the suspect arm of quarterback Jeff Jacobovitz. Barest 400’s moved into first place One-two punch Last year’s winners, the N.Y. Clits, continue to criticism cruise through their schedule. Last week, the Clits won by scores of 49-0 and 31 -0. The team feels they will go all the way and with Paul Dimiero at quarterback and Bobby Johnson at halfback, the Clits have possibly the best 1-2 combination on campus. Another team with a chance to win it all is QB 714. This past week, QB 714 beat the Poontangs 25-0, and the Sh. Panthers 24-0. QB 714 is led on defense by Jim Randall and Larry Wheeler. There doesn’t seem to be dn offensive line that can stop Randall from getting to the passer. On offense, an injury to regular quarterback Brian Rosenbloom hasn’t hurt QB at all.-Rich Gross has taken over the quarterback duties and has added more running to an already potent offense. 1 he recent acquisition of speedy Steve Silba at wide receiver has added yet another option to -their arsenal. This week, QB 714 faces the Bionic Man, led by quarterback Mike Betz, in a game that will decide the division winner. Many insiders feel that this team can beat QB 714, and this game should give the onlookers a preview of the playoffs. iliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiliiiiiiiiliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiil Need Help With Writing? = = Come To THE WRITING PLACE Opening Allen acknowledged that there is no such thing as a perfect referee. “There’s no doubt the referees don’t see everything,” he said. “They’re them students, just like everyone else. And there are only two of they can’t cover the whole field.” On those occasions when the referees do miss a call, and sometimes when they make a correct call, they are often subject to abuse by the players. “The hardest thing for them to do is absorb abuse,” Wheeler said. Referee Bill Coomber said that when a player gets upset, he tries not to argue back, but if the players gets out of hand, Coomber tosses him out of the game. Allen added that most referees don’t get upset. “We’re used to it, and it’s expected,” Allen said. There are also a lot of said. gracious football players. “We get lots of compliments,” he Pro and Con Players’ opinions were mixed. One felt that officials were teiribly while inconsistent, saying one week a certain play deserved a penalty, the next week it didn’t. “They don t know the rules, he said.

Republican his Amherst Police Neither Both men boasted of fine war no criminal record and a one year probationary period. Mike Amico Ken Braun had been selling heroin and that he had not been “enticed.” He said Colliding had been heard to say, '“I’m going to kill anyone who gets in my way.” The youth then allegedly pointed a mace gun at an officer in the course of the robbery. \ Not enticed to the responded Amico charges by claiming that the boy “We have an aggressive sheriff’s department doing a job . . . the who grand jury federal investigated the incident praised the work of the police involved,” Amico said Another conflict developed over law enforcement priorities.

A court will not grant the marijuana ACD if the defendant has ever before been granted either a general or marijuana ACD or has been convicted of any other drug related offense. Nor will a judge grant it if'a defendant has been previously convicted of any crime, or if he has ever been a youthful offender in drug-related acts, unless the D.A, agrees to its use in these two instances.

Other students, who had cars, thought the new location would have to be an improvement over the present buildings, characterized as “firetraps” with poor heating or ventilation. One janitor claimed that the present facilities were adequate for several more years, and criticized the move to School 79 because “it would make this a white people’s college.” He claimed it would cost a lot of money to put in laboratories, parking lots, security fences and other equipment already at the present site. One compromise temporary location suggested by the student newspaper, The Stage, is the old Bishop High Fallon School building, only two blocks away from the present location. However, it is not known what the rent would be for this building, or, for that matter, for School 79.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Friday, 22 October 1976 Prodigal Sun �Billy Joel entertains crowd with his Jour-encore set Century Thetztre Furay a not but deserves to be by Tim Switala Spectrum Music Staff The public address system resounds/ "The powerful Latin tempo calling the milling capacity crowd, to attention. As everyone files to their seats in preperation for the opening song, I and wonder how this concert will compare to his summer warm-up stint for Starship in the Convention Center. That was one of those 45-minute rush sets during which he was never given time to develop himself. Now he was headlining in someplace other than an "acoustic nightmare" the Century Theater and the crowd vyas his and no one else's. A few people in the orchestra pit are the first to see him enter the stage and they immediately rise to their feet. They've seen Billy Joel before. The majority of the audience follows suit and Joel receives his first standing pvation. The theme song coming from the speakers is now an inaudible cacophony as rivers of raw emotion flow from the audience; staining the upholstery. A spotlight pierces the darkness giving witness to Joel, hunched over his piano, punching rapid stacatto' bars on ivory. Overhead, drummer Liberty DeVitto, wearing a black racing glove on his left hand, speed drums in unison. It's "Angry Young Man" and the audience explodes, releasing the anticipation that they've had bottled up for weeks. bass, Howie The musicians, Doug Stegmeyer Emerson —. guitar, Russ Javers acoustic guitar keyboards and sax, as well as Rich Cannata DiVitto were also with Joel in the summer and are the back up crew on "Turnstiles." Throughout the evening, this group played with a tightness and accuracy not to be surpassed by any live Richie Furay doesn't bring the adjective "legendary" to the minds of most. But, if audiences weren't as fickle as they ususally are, and if seniority were a genuine criterion in deciding appeal, Furay would surely have the status of an Elton John. At the very least, Furay is one of country-rock.'s elder statesman. But, as evidenced by his performance October 14 at the Century, he is much more. Since as of late, Furay has turned to Jesus.as a source of guidance in his life, one might have gopd reason to expect him to select many songs from his album of that theme, I've Got a Reason. Instead, he relied heavily on the work, of his past bands. "Failin' In Love" was the opener,'the hit single from Souther Hillman Furay, the last act Furay was involved in before pursuing a solo career. A pre fab supergroup formulated by David Geffen, SHF mystified the entire world of music by failing to click. But Furay has drawn the best moments of his contribution to that group for the tour. "Believe Me," also drawn from that album, was done beautifully, With pianist Tom Stipe playing as well as keyboard whiz Paul Harris did on the original recording. Mexican Connection;" it's — — — — performance. "The Yankees are winning 4-3!" The crowd, mainly comprised of SUNY at Buffalo students from New York City, roars. Joel leans back from his piano and one of a number of amusing interludes begins. "This is a true story. Some people.think I a lot of bullshit. Although, there's nothing wrong with creative bullshit." He then goes on preparing the audience for the song, explaining the atmosphere that prompted him to write it. "It was an executive lounge. You know, the kind with top hat and champagne glass on the marquee." With this, he began playing his modern-day classic, "Piano Man," which lead the spellbound audience through an excursion of the early days of his piano bar life. But there was more to this song than its popularity and AM notoriety. This was the reason all of this was happening: the sellout crowd, the well-defined Joel following, the respect given a headlining musician. Just call it success, if you will. The song ended to another rousing ovation. Joel then made his way to an electric piano and the real fun began. "I met my old friend on the street last night ." It was an identical imitation of Paul Simon's "Still Crazy After All These Years." He followed this with an equally hysterical Joe Cocker imitation. 'This was followed by a song off the new "Turnstiles" album called "James." This song, along with other favorites such as "The Ballad of Billy the Kid," "Traveling Prayer," and "The Entertainer" insure Joel's position as the master of song-writing realism and place him high on the list of contemporary rock minstrels . . The Latest Rage! INSTANT ORIENTAL ■hhhjli ijt NOODLES Much of his work is autobiographical ("Piano Man," "The Entertainer") and almost all of it has some kind of outlook on life. "Captain Jack," for example, is Long Island as he saw it from a window one day. "New York State of Mind" is the romanticist's view of The City, and, although all of his compositions were performed well, this one seemed to be one of the highpoints of the evening, featuring a powerfully bluesy sax solo by Rich Cannata. It seems that Joel has been heavily influenced by his home town and the audience, many of whom had identical roots, quickly identified with these pieces. His selection of songs came from his three major selling records, Piano Man, Streetlife Serenade, and Turnstiles. He didn't perform any material off his first, rather obscure album, "Cold Springs Harbor." The majority of his two-hour set (which included four encores) was songs off the Piano Man (everything except "Stopln Nevada"), but the pinnacle of his performance came prior to his other AM hit, "The Entertainer." • • It was a satirical routine cutting down glitter rockers, especially the kind that milk applause from the audience all eveing. "It's an old trick. Mozart used it. 'Come ve vill And in spoofing the Midnight clap our hands ja.' Special, Joel pulled an excellent Wolfman Jack imitation from his bag of tricks and followed by saying he wouldn't mind doing the show gs long as they "Keep that mother away from me." All in all, this proved to be an overwhelming performance that came as somewhat of a pleasant surprise, this being Joel's first top-bill presentation in Buffalo. He played his best material, exhibiting a mastery of the piano unsurpassed by any rock musician and the sum total was a fantastic set which encouraged the audience to let it loose. And let it loose is what they did. When Joel finally finished, after his fourth encore, he left the stage, leaving behind a thoroughly satisfied capacity crowd with a taste of class musicianship. The Entertaineer is a title that is, if anything, an underestimation of this Non-hit medley I. was hoping for a bit of Buffalo Springfield, and Furay obliged first with "On The Way Home,” a Neil Young composition. Furay sang most of the lead vocals on Young's tunes while the Springfield was together, and this is probably the most famous of the numbers. "Mighty Maker," "Gettin' Through," and "Look at the Sun" from Richie's current work were all performed with polish, but the most electrifying part of his whole performance was an amazing string of non hits performed medley fashion. These were non-hits in that none of them was ever released as a single. Beginning with "Sad Memory," one of the most obscure Buffalo Springfield songs, Furay gave us a guided topr through his whole career. We got "Child's Claim to Fame," "C'.mon, Just For Me and You," and "Picin' Up the Pieces" all in rapid succession. And he did play "Good Feelin' to Know," a tune sorely missed during the few performances Souther, Hillman, and Furay managed to stage. It has often been sard that Furay was more than the leader of Poco; rather he was Poco. And this is certainly true: he sang Paul Cotton's "Bad Weather" and Jim Messina's "You Better Think Twice" with as much feeling as if they were his own. It was magical when Furay performed "Kind Woman" for his encore, the last song the Springfield recorded before the band dissolved. And Furay's voice that sweet, high tenor that blended so well with Stephen Stills' in 1966, was in perfect shape, the very high notes easily within his reach. There was no Neil Young, Stephen Stills, or Jim Messina at the Century Thursday night. But Furay was an integral a member of any band as the above giants, and to see him so easily capture the crowd was a pleasant change from the surly reaction usually relegated the warmup act. Maybe a huge comeback is on its way.

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

It is a fascinating, somewhat eerie time to explore, and Sodervick does so, using reflective surfaces such as water, mirrors, or imaginary walls to portray the possibilities of this "in-between" time. In "An Ohio Morning" we view a sunrise scene, but one with Sodervick's interpretation. In one corner is the moon, and in the dawn, painted in other is turbulent, though muted shades of gray and green.

I envisioned a film filled subtle suspense, with by Bill Maraschiello foreshadowing, mysterious women, and glassy-eyed madmen. I was unprepared to witness the prolonged bloodbath which dominated the viewing time of The peculiar cross that a master must bear is that after he or she has proven to be a master, it must be reproven again and again with each subsequent work. Consistent genius is something that very few people are willing to concede; whether it's because we need to know that everyone can make a mistake (i.e, "I'm not the only one who does"), or has some other cause, I can't say. Ingmar Bergman must, by now, be driving the seekers after perfectionism up the proverbial wall, because he has consistently provided just that. I sincerely believe that every film he has made in the past twebty years has been as close to perfect in its achievement as makes no difference, and that Akira Kurosawa is his only serious challenger for the title of the world's greatest living director. Yet Bergman, who has transcended cinema cult boundaries to become one of the most famous of filmmakers, has drawn charges of inaccessibility; despite being male,, he has made the most mature and serioud films in existence about the female consciousness, but has been called a sexist. And Bergman's latest film, Face to Face, though unanimous praise has been given to Liv Ullmann's portrayal (she can be permitted not to make mistakes, having not been making them for only a few years), has suffered potshots for being obscure, talky, and especially for being concerned with Bergman's own problems. prospect Marathon Man. Based on the novel by William Goldman, the John Schlesinger film opens in Manhattan with what appears to be a pointless game of bumper-cars between two old men. As the game grows more and more vicious, a car radio blares out news of murder and coal mine disaster. When the two cars collide with an oil truck, everything explodes, fulfilling the of prophecy disaster . and triggering the violence which continues until the final scene. Suddently, we see Dustin Hoffman, out for hiadaily 26 mile run; he catches sight of the flames, stops, and runs on.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

They were told that they were there for. some sort of presentation on acoustical science; probably a distinguished speaker. I hen. through the curtain walks the fantasy, the miracle,-the event. Ciregg Allman, guitar in hand, sauntered onto the stage accompanied by violinist and SUNV at Buffalo student. Doug Cameron. The auditorium was in bedlam.

Monkarsh calls them “rabbits” due to their fine speed and feels they gave the Bulls their finest defensive outfield he’d ever seen. Left field is undecided as three freshmen battle for the spot. Baseball Bulls Coach Monkarsh faced reconstructing Bulls team by John H. Reiss v Campus Editor ' What do you do when the best team you’ve ever had graduates all at once7 You rebuild. And what do you rebuild with? Youth, of course That’s the task that Buffalo baseball coach Bill Monkarsh was the with when confronted majority of last year’s squad did not return this fall. The Bulls’ Autumn record was 8-11, and considering the fact that most of last year’s team left, the signs for this spring are encouraging. Monkarsh was not new to the process of reconstruction. College coaches must tackle this problem every few years due to the steady and students, of rotation Monkarsh was in the same predicament two years ago. After Monkarsh emerged with last year’s of Oc^ci& Battery unsettled and Bob Ganci Phillip Sperlazza shared the catching spot stellar crew. Evidence of their excellence Monkarsh emerged with last year’s stellar crew. Evidence of their excellence lies in the fact that a record five Bulls were scouted and selected by major league teams. All five are presently playing minor league ball, with pitcher Jim Niewczyk having advanced to the Double A level. this fall. Mike Dixon, who carried the bulk of the receiving load the served years two last predominantly as the designated {,itter Pitching is one of the Bulls’ strong suits. Mike Betz, Buffalo s New methods Buffalo has undergone radical changes in personnel and in so doing their style of play was altered. Last year’s Bulls had an awesome attack, using the long ball as their primary weapon. The Bulls of 1976-77 rely instead on speed and defense to win games. successful one.

One of the Bulls’ two major weaknesses is the lack of long ball hitting. The other concern is their ability to play consistent baseball. “We don’t have the home run power we used to, Monkarsh explained, “so we re going to have to rely on speed and defense.

The tournament, little disheartened about the originally scheduled for October 8 apparent lack of seriousness by and 9 was rained out numerous some of the Big Four participants. times, and was finally played on “Canisius was the host team of October 15 and 16, despite the tourney this year, and they terrible weather conditions. defaulted the last round by not participants The in the showing up.

Next were Niagara with action, perhaps three teams 18, State with 10 and Canisius instead of four;” with two. The tournament was When asked if his tennis Bulls conducted in round-robin fashion, could improve on their 7-4 (and with eight game pro sets, instead their tourney win) record of. the of the customary six game sets, fall season, LaPenna responded, the system that was employed “We will have a much tougher during the regular campaign. During the season, the Bulls defeated Niagara by a score of 6-3, Canisius 8-1, jnd Buffalo State 9-0, so their championship ' * Competition was keen and fierce in the Moonlight Tennis Tournament held at the Bubble last weekend, as evidenced in the large number of three-set matches right through the schedule. A1 Boardman, seeded fourth, emerged victorious winning handily over unseeded John Leach 6-2, 6-2, 6-3 in the final. Boardman was in complete control, serving well and stroking smoothly throughout the match, which was characterized by long baseline rallies with Boardman holding the upper hand in most of them. To reach the final, however, he had to overcome a spirited come-back by Orin Agostini in the quarterfinals (6-0, 6-7, 6-3) and beat top-seeded Marc Miller (6-0, 6-2) a former varsity player, in the semi-finals. John Leach was the giant killer, of the tournament. He had to go the full distance to win all his matches prior to the final. He upset third-seeded Scott Monroe 4-6, 7-5, 6-2, in the first round, got Ruben David 6-3, 4-6, 6-2, in the quarterfinals and finally seventh-seeded Lance Zee 6-2, 2-6, 6-2, in the semifinals before finally succumbing to Boardman. Lynn Hershkovitz won the ladies crown winning her matches quite comfortably. She beat JoAnne Bauda in the finals 6-2, 6-2, displaying some powerful forehands and steady play from the baseline. The winners received attractive trophies for their efforts. Future tournament An open doubles tournament along the same lines is in the planning stages. The top-seeded team of Boardman and Jack Kaminski should have little trouble reaching the finals, because of their excellent team play in the past. Also adding to the strong calibre of play will be the team of Jim Iranti and his partner, Tom LaPenna. Stiff competition can also be expected from, the veteran team of Steve Allen and Al Alperin, and the team of Bill Cole and Rob Gurbacki have to be given a slightly better than even chance for top honors. The tournament will be an open event, with the only requirement being that one of the participants be affiliated with the University. (Check the backpage of The Spectrum for further details.) A strong turn-out, with top flight competition will be expected for the First Annual Doubles Moonlight Tennis Tournament.

He maintained that our system is inferior to the European judicial in ascertainment of the truth. Speaking in Obrien Hall’s Moot Courtroom, Schlesinger discussed several flaws in our legal system, including the “lack of discovery,” that being the defendant cannot confront testimony to be used against him before trial. In European countries, the defendant and his council have unlimited right to inspect or discover the case of prosecution before and during trial. This enables the defendant and council to prepare a deeper defense against the charges, resulting in fewer convictions based on surprise testimony. “England has long abandoned the practice of trial by surprise,” Schlesinger said. He observed that when the Allies were preparing a tribunal for the Nuremburg war criminals, the Soviet Union rejected the American judicial system on the grounds that the defendant is not allowed to hear evidence to be used against him before the trial. Unlimited discovery Schlesinger mentioned two cases against “unlimited discovery.” One assertion was if the defendant knew the names and testimony of prosecuting witnesses, he could bribe or threaten them. He added that in West Germany, where people have this right, this does not usually happen. Testimony of witnesses is recorded before trial, so if the witness tries to contradict previous statements, “testament is called to help him remember.” Schlesinger then discussed the argument that unlimited discovery is a one way street; the prosecutor must show all his cards on demand while the defendant may keep his hidden until trial- Until this point is resolved, he felt that it is unlikely unlimited discovery will be Other targets of Schlesinger’s criticism were pre-trial detention introduced in this silent because a jury is not permitted to rule unfavorably on account of silence. In continental systems, the right to remain silent is upheld, and the defendant is under no compulsion to speak. However, compete silence is strongly discouraged because it can be taken as evidence of guilt. The victim in the continental system is never under oath so he cannot be indicted for perjury, and therefore can only help his case by testifying. Total silence is a rarity, according to Schlesinger, because it puts the defense at a disadvantage. Due to these shortcomings, collapse of American system the is imminent Schlesinger charged, adding that trials are games of strategy rather than searches for truth. Innocent people can be railroaded to jail on surprise testimony, while the guilty are encouraged to suppress facts by remaining silent. The result is that “true facts are hidden in an intolerably large number of cases,” according to Schlesinger. American speed In contrast to a slow moving American courtroom, a French tribunal can dispose of as many as 20 cases in one morning. If the defendant cannot prepare a suitable defense, he confesses and sentence passed immediately. is Other targets of Schlesinger’s criticism were pre-trail detention in the absence of a just reason for such detention, a bail system that arbitrarily favors the rich, and the built-in incentive for prosecutors to attain convictions at all costs. Schlesinger concluded that the lesson taught by the European system calls for reflection and open-minded thinking. He said that if we consider truth less important than other values, these other values must be spelled out, and strong enough to justify suppression of truth even though “such suppression sends innocent people to jail and allows guilty people to go free.” He felt that if we adopted the European practices of unlimited discovery and discouragement of silence our system would become just and efficient. A . native of Munich, Germany, Schlesinger persued his studies in Geneva and Berlin. He received his law degree in 1933 and emigrated to the United States in 1938. In 1948, he joined the Cornell Law School faculty where he became the dominant figure in Comparative Law. He was named Professor Ermitus of 1975. country. Schlesinger criticized the American judicial process where a defendant is counseled and even encouraged to reamin The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. 25 State University of New York at Buffalo Wed., 20 October 1976 Symposium claims that bail discriminates against poor by Andrea Rudner Staff Writer Spectrum Most of the other panelists disagreed -with the contention that bail is really a form of collateral. Buddy Gadson, an employee of' the Rehabilitation Department of the Monroe County Jail and a former inmate, said the real purpose of bail is to keep the accused person “off the streets.” but preventive “Bail is nothing detention. Suppose a guy is living with his parents. Now where’s that parent going to get fifty thousand dollars? 1 personally had fifty thousand dollars bail. I didn’t even consider the possibility of posting bail.” The bias against the poor is inherent in the system, indicated Sal Martoche, administrator, Pre-trial Services Agency. ‘The rich can afford the bail. There’S no question about it, bail is prejudicial against poor people and minorities.” Panelist Dorothy Teryl, a member of the Executive Board of Citizens Inquiry on Parole, explained that conditions in the holding centers are often worse than those in the state’s maximum security prisons. She cited brutality, excessive censorship of mail and strict visitor regulations as three The bail system as it functions in the judicial process is highly discriminatory towards the poor, maintained a panel of six legal experts at the Statler Hilton last Saturday. The pqnel was part of a conference, ‘The Citizen and the Law, a Western New York Conference,” and was headed by Herman Schwartz, vociferous prisoner’s rights advocate and professor at the Buffalo Law School. Sponsored by The Fund for Modern Courts, the aim of the conference was to acquaint the general public with the problems and conflicts of our legal system. -The conference was heavily attended. Among those participating were students from local high schools and colleges, teachers, lawyers and representatives of citizens’ organizations. In his opening remarks, Vincent Doyle, president of the Erie County Bar Association, underscored the complexity of the problems that must be tackled in the major problems. legal system. Those who are most critical Martoche agreed, stating emphatically of the system, he said, are frequently people who are unaware of the complexity that “pre-trial facilities are abominable.” of the problem, and who have only a These centers are supported by tax monies “smattering” of background information. that he feels would be better spent in He warned that “fair, constitutional, improving other areas of the legal system. unhurried justice” would be expensive. “It costs fifty four dollars a day to keep a “You and me as taxpayers have to be person at a holding center.

Doyle indicated that it is not a simple Teryl cited two reasons for the bad matter to revamp the judicial system. conditions at the centers. First, unlike Bail is the practice of requiring an penitentaries, detention centers are not accused person to place a sum of money required to meet any minimum standards, with the court which would be forfeited in she said. Next, defendents frequently plead the event that the person did not show up guilty to lesser offenses just so they can get at the specified time to stand trial. In the out of the facilities. The poor conditions at the centers are a past, defendants have been required to post to get people to plead as much as $100,000 bail or more to way of remain free until the trial. The defendant guilty for the process of pleading guilty is who is unable to raise the required bail sum far lengthier than that of entering a “plea is thrown in a holding center for days, of innocent.” A weeks, or even months, awaiting trial. fact sheet distributed at the “The sole purpose of bail is to ensure conference enumerates several defects in pre-trial imprisonmentr" the person’s ultimate appearance in court.” inherent Doqrr commented that bail should be, “Pre-trial detention, the sheet said. above all, reasonable. When bail is fixed at “adversely affects the defendant’s American ridiculously high levels, it is in effect “no bail at all,” he said. opportunity to adequately prepare his case with counsel, in addition to interrupting the normal functioning of his or her life.” This may include supporting a family. Studies have shown that detention often has a negative effect on the outcome of the case. Defendants who are detained before trial are more likely to be found quilty, and to receive harsher sentences than those released. Alternatives to bail There are alternatives to hail. “Release on Own Recognizance” or ROR is one. This means that the defendant must take it upon him or herself to return to court without supervision or having posted bail. “Supervised or Conditional Release” is granted when the judge has some reason to doubt that the defendant will return to court on his own. A defendant is freed under the supervision of a qualified person or under certain conditions such as attending a drug treatment program. “Appearance The Ticket”' is an alternative to bail for those charged with misdemeanors or violations. The defendant is handed a summons telling him when to appear in court. these Although alternatives are available, they are not always employed. A list of criteria to be considered in fixing bail was advanced by the panel. Among these criteria are character, financial resources, criminal record, previous record of responding to court appearances when required, and the weight of evidence against the accused. To aid those who have bond set at levels beyond their financial means, organizations called Bail Funds have been established by concerned citizens groups. These bail funds will investigate cases upon request. First, unlike penitentiaries, detention centers are not required to meet any minimum standards, she said. Next, defendants frequently plead guilty percent loss of funds. He added that bail was most often forfeited by those charged with traffic violations. He underlined the need for support community increased and participation. “Chicken-hearted” “The bail system is generally recognized as a disgrace, an atrocity and as a waste of money,” said Schwartz. He blamed the legislators for being “chicken-hearted” especially in an election year, and faulted the election of judges as a major contributing problem. He indicated that judges were sometimes pressured into decisions based on public sentiment rather than pure objectivity because of the need to remain “popular.” The Family Court Workshop discussed the law as it relates to families and minors. l,t addressed the problems of juvenile delinquincy, child abuse and neglect, and the definition of the role of Family Court. Nanette Dembitz, Family Court Judge, Manhattan was the moderator. The moderator for the Selection of Judges Panel was Francis J. Offermann Jr., director, Erje County Bar Association. The goal of this workshop was to evaluate the judge selection processes in terms of whether the present system produces the most highly qualified judiciary possible. The Victimless Crimes Workshop was a discussion centering on such crimes as vagrancy, prostitution, homosexual acts, and the possession of illegal drugs for one’s own use. The workshop questioned whether society has the right to punish a person for something that harms no one, except possibly the defendant? The moderator was Michael J. Brown, attorney in private practice. The Buffalo Citizen and The Law Conference was the first of ten conferences to be held throughout New York State.

Durham, There’s a nasty brouhaha stinking up the air in that small, hopelessly poor town in the Granite State. Student leaders at UNH seem convinced that much of the trouble can be traced -to William Loeb, boogeyman of the media, and editor and publisher of the Manchester Union Leader. Loeb, whose fascistic politics fall somewhere to the right of Idi Amin’s, is infamous throughout the country for his front-page editorials that slam big wheels with headlines like “Jerry the Jerk” and “Kissinger the Kike.” Loeb similarly does his damndest to keep UNH and its president, Eugene Mills, under his thumb with stinging commentary on the state’s liberal oasis in his — Featuring: Movie: TOO LATE, TO WAIT UB GOSPEL CHOIR & GUEST SPEAKER 9:00 pm Date: Thursday, Oct. 21st Place: Porter Cafeteria Time: 7:15 — DON'T MISS IT!!! paper. Sponsored by Painfully aware happens down here that Mr. Loeb doesn’t like, “When he editorializes about it and then people all over the state get down on the university. I don’t think President Mills wants to go through all the hassles,” said Steven Morrison, editor of the student paper, the New Campus Crusade for Christ Hampshire. LS M- . ! Mills is also painfully aware that his predecessor. Dr. Thomas Booner, left the post because of constant pressures from outside the university, primarily from the Union Leader. When the paper criticizes UNH, Morrison says, Mills catches flak from backward legislators, alumni, and parents of students at UNH. And if Mills is jockeying for funds from a conservative state government, he’s forced to cowtow to outsiders all the more. But.students are starting to get riled at Mills’ continuous acquiesence to the Union Leader. The biggest flap stirring now is over an experimental visitation policy scheduled to be enacted in six dormitories. The plan was jointly conceived and agreed on by a combination of student leaders and administrators, including Mills. When the Union Leader got wind of this tenatative policy,’ a series of stories and editorials were printed denouncing the proposal. And whammo, just like that, Vice Provost for Student Affairs, Richard Stevens, sent a press release to the paper stating the visitation policy would be shelved. The release was written without first permitting students to defend their position and protest to the Board of Trustees, Iron hand Another example of Loeb’s iron hand over university affairs was when the New Hampshire printed a photo of two streakers at a campus revel. President Mills promptly sent an open letter to the Union Leader condemning the action, presumably to forestall an editorial comment. Even though the New Hampshire’s office is just a few doors away, Mills refused to talk to the editors before apologizing to Loeb and his henchmen. The Union Leader ran an explosive editorial despite Mills’ letter. Students are just about fed up with what they call “an apalling situation.” Farnham, who was elected last year on a platform based on “working within the system,” has set his eyes on more issues to fight about, mainly the pass/fail predicament, tuition increases, the growing number of administrators on campus, and “an unruly registration procedure that everyone thinks is lousy except the registrar.” One thing the ongoing controversy has accomplished is the unity of two disparate forces; the student government and the New Hampshire, an alliance that is rare on most campuses today. But then both organizations figure that UNH has some catching up to do, and William Loeb, that swashbuckler of the press, doesn’t scare them one bit <!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Every Thursday Night Starting — October 21 st at 9 pm [ Pitcher of $5.00 1Screwdrivers 3 Shots of Schnapps — The stakes are certainly high; the BRF figures profits for such a reunion in the neighborhood of $350 million. They are quick to point out that they are the only promoters offering a plan that would give all the money to the Beatles themselves. BRF spokesmen are hazy concerning details of what happens to all the dough should the concert fail to come off. They maintain, however, that anyone who sends in $5.75 will be getting an honest deal in any event. “You go into Penney’s and just a plain T-shirt will cost you $4.50,’’ says BRF organizer Robert Galinsky from the foundation s office, a room crammed with Beatle posters and other memorabilia. The BRF is hardly alone in its efforts to get the Beatles back together. Some people close to the scene say over 100 promoters in every part of the world have hatched various schemes to reunite the four. One group is selling “Let It Be" bumper stickers to encourage the gife while the Beatle’s own record company reports receiving blank checks from around the world along with instructions telling the firm, to simply fill in the proper amount should the Beatles ever do another concert.

According to Weinreich, the loss wasn’t due to the new offense. “We made fundamental errors, and our ball-handling wasn’t as good as it could have been.” He remained optimistic. “1 think it’ll work out,” he concluded. v2ER HI »»* <7 m In. the first game against Binghamton, Weinreich used a more familiar offense. “I wanted to get one game under our belts," he said. This strategy worked as Buffalo defeated Binghamton in the first game, 15-12. The Bulls looked very good in the early going when the second server, freshman Mary Evanco served up eight points. After tha$ Buffalo’s offense slowed down a hit, in spite of. some superb Spiking by Fvanco and sophomore Judi Bardak. With Buffalo leading 14-6, Binghamton came on strong to score six uncontested points and put the win in doubt for Buffalo. The Bulls' defense was disorganized and confused, but the team hung on to score the game point. Trouble at first That's Bill Cole (with the beard) and Rob Gurbacki, Buffalo's top doubles team this year. They led Buffalo to its second consecutive Big Four tennis championship last week, in which Buffalo won 24 of 27 matches.

Cole at first singles, was undefeated and Gurbacki, playing both first and second singles was also undefeated. are this week's Athletes-of-the-Week. They Honorable mention goes to Bob Howard who led the cross country Bulls to two victories this week. For the next game, Weinreich switched to the new offense. Instead of changing setters with the rotation, the new offense had only one setter, no matter where she was in the rotation. Weinreich hoped to prepare the team for their games in Canada against St. Catherines, who use a similar offense. Sue Pels started out slowly and wasn’t helped much by the performances of her ‘ teammates, who seemed to be continuing their poor defensive play of the game before. With Binghamton leading 5-0, Weinreich replaced Pels with freshman Amy Ostrir, who was making her first appearance of the season. Ostrir filled in admirably by setting the ball up for spikers Evanco and Hilary Schlesinger, and Buffalo pulled ahead 8-5.

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

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

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

That’s right, light up a joint in full view of your favorite cop or judge and be secure in the knowledge that neither can do a thing about it. Effective September 30, 1976, Drug Food and the Administration, with the approval of the National Institute for Drug Abuse and the Drug Enforcement Administration, has granted a Washington D.C. man who suffers from glaucoma permission to smoke marijuana therapeutically. This is the first exception granted in the 1970 Controlled Substances Act, the federal law which erroneously classified marijuana in the same category as heroin, thereby making it illegal for physicians to prescribe, even for legitimate medical uses. is Randall, 28, Bob functionally blind in one eye and has seriously impaired Vision in the other. He is also being prosecuted in the District of Columbia for possession of a few marijuana plants that his doctors have certified he needs to keep At his July trial in the D.C. Superior Court, he admitted to Randall’s possession, but attorney, John Karr, argued that it was justified by medical necessity. The trial judge is expected to issue his decision National October 20. The Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML) and Foundation are the Playboy assisting in Randall’s case. The doctors say flatly that Randall’s condition can no longer be adequately controlled by conventional medications. Randall has tried them all. In fact, he faces the prospect of a rapid onset of blindness unless he is allowed to smoke pot. His only other alternative is a risky surgical procedure, wl\ich is not always successful and may even aggravate the condition. Ah estimated one million Americans suffer from glaucoma, an incurable eye disease that ranks as one of the leading causes of blindness in the U.S. In the past few years, however, marijuana has been found to be an effective treatment for thedisease. These questions are being considered by Walter Gantz of the Communications Speech Department at this university. By means of interviews, Gantz is attempting to measure the extent to which people use the media in opinions in forming elections. The study is aimed at determining the relationship between media analyses of who won the debates and why, and the the conclusions drawn by individuals who turned to those media for comment. Gantz’s contention that there is a high Walter Gantz correlation between the two. ‘The media tells us what’s President’s remark that Eastern nations including important and provide us with an European explanation,” Gantz said. 1 Yugoslavia, Poland, and Romania suspect we then turn to the media are free and autonomous nations, to “help us determine the winner undaunted by Soviet domination, and the reason for his victory.

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

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

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

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

Security’s new image To the Editor; A campus ■ security force is unquestionably a necessity for a bastion-of learning the size of UB. I am sure every rational being here is glad to have a group who’s purposes are to insure the physical well-being of students, faculty, and university traffic employees; protect personal property, control, and enforcement of the ‘Law’ on campus. It seems, however, that Security is not pleased with its image up to this point in time. Why not? 1 find their uniforms esthetically pleasing, their vehicles are most impressive, and I find most of the officers.to be congenial and helpful. Much of their time is wasted unnecessarily. Some students take advantage of the liberties offered through dorm life. I am sure everyone has heard the rauccous cacaphony of a fire 1 alarm at three in the morning, arid implored God, Security, and the courts to dispatch the evil doer to some distant wasteland. Seriously, one must question Security’s sincerity about cementing relations based on trust and respect, with the student body.

To these many people, I would like to say thanks. literature given to students has there been any mention of undercover security officers on campus, yet everyone has surely identified them stalking our halls. If there has existed a common opinion that Campus Security officers are mere “rent-a-cops,” it is only because of their (and the Administration’s) failure to properly inform and educate the students. This is most disheartening, considering the fact that they deal solely with transgressions of the university community. With such education, I am sure Security would not feel the impotence expressed in Wednesday’s article. I am extremely curious about the “bad incident” of 1965 involving sidearms. What the hell happened? , Do many people know there is active legislation to arm Security again? What about the K-9 patrol’s noble hounds; when and where are they employed? If Security would genuinely open up to the student body, rather’ than offering a public relations ploy such as the pilot-100 program, I am sure they would find the friends they “sorely need.” Mark Teitelb'aum P.S.

"FORP IS ROCKEP BY A LEFT THE JAW CARTER TAKES A HARP RIGHT TP THE MOUTH BOTH MEN ARE HURTING — — —" Steve Lojacono defense To the Editor. The current campaign to defend Kenneth Johnson in his pending multiple rape trial is an illogical and misguided attempt to create a political issue out of what is, in fact, a relatively straightforward criminal prosecution. Mr. Johnson was arrested because he met the description given by a number of rape victims. The circumstances of his arrest appear to involve unscrupulous and perhaps illegal behavior on the part of the Buffalo police, and objections to the arrest are well founded. But no matter how strenuously Johnson’s defense committee objects to. the arrest, we cannot let this obscure fact that he was identified by at least two rape victims as their assailant, when brought face to face with them. This identification is certainly sufficient evidence to warrant a trial in order to determine Johnson’s guilt or innocence. The defense committee has argued, in a number of pamphlets distributed in Norton and elsewhere, that Johnson is the victim of a traditional racist frameup in which black men are unfairly railroaded into jail for raping white women. Nonetheless, as the defense committee will admit, all six women raped in the short period of time early last winter claim their assailants were black. Thus the committee is faced with a dilemma; on one hand the rapist was unquestionably black, on the other hand any black man accused of these rapes is victim of an historical conspiracy. While Johnson’s supporters are ostensibly concerned with justice clear of all prejudicial bias, it is interesting to note that the defense fund which they so willingly support is guilty of sexist slurs and innuendo. Private investigators for the defense are canvassing the neighbors of the helpless women raped at gunpoint and asking such questions as “did she like to drink a lot?, take drugs?; did she have wild parties?; did she like to go out with black men?” These questions, entirely irrelevant to the question of rape, can only have one aim. The repulsive “she was looking for it” argument raises its ugly head, and it is paid for id promoted by those who unwittingly donate money and time to Johnson’s defense committee in the name of justice. We should provide the defendant with a fair trial and an opportunity to clear his name. Why shouldn’t we give equal protection to the rights and reputations of young women raped at the point of a gun? 4JW A'fcteRBl Michael Kaye Monday, 18 October 1976 . The Spectrum .

Craftsmen in Teotihuacan Dr. Barbour, an anthropology professor, is working closely with students interested in archeology, studying the society of Teotihuacan, a city in Mexico circa 400 AD. It was made up of about 200 people and centered on craft workshops. Barbour is examining the fingerprints on clay figurines to determine the sex of the craftsmen. He feels it might have been the most important city in North America at that time. The determination of which sex was responsible for the production of these figurines could lead to information concerning their function By in society. understanding the way in which they were produced, and for what purpose, Barbour hopes to gain insight into the organization of Teotihuacan, and determine it’s cultural influence in Mexico. To study the finger prints and discover their origin, they must first be transferred to a laytex mold. Under a microscope the mold is analyzed and the width between the ridges in the print is measured. A feminine print has ridges which are close together and uniform while a masculine print contains wider ridges more loosely structured. The undergraduates working with Barbour are involved in all phases of the research, including the development of the mold to observe the print as well as the actual measurements and determinations. As Barbour said, “They are right there close to the frontier.” — Any spare skeletons in the closet?

The site of his experiments is in Alden, where two tils divided by a gravelly layer have been discovered on the bank of Ellicott Creek. A til is formed as a glacier retreats and is made up of a ground soil type matrix. By analyzing the texture, density, color, carbonate content, size, and structure of samples taken from the til, Mercer hopes to learn whether these tils came from the same glacial advancement which deposited the first til, then receded, and advanced again, depositing the second. Further lab tests will determine the time between the two advances and how far back they reteded (if it is discovered that the glacier did recede). The Til’s position in the history of glaciation, and its possible correlation with other tils in the Western New York area are other questions to be answered through this independent study project. Independent programs are very easy to arrange. Professors don’t turn down a request unless they are burdened with bureaucratic responsibilities, or are involved with a large number of students. It is a great way to pursue personal goals and graduation requirements at the same time. �Sportspaige by Paige Miller Sports Editor terminated their contracts for not doing research. Does that make sense? Think for a moment now. Would you hire a man to mow your lawn and then fire him for not painting the house? Of course not. You’re not dumb. That’s because you’re not a state agency. State agencies are required by law to do things in the stupidest way possible, unless there is an emergency, extreme or hell freezes over. This University hired two men to coach varsity sports and teach gym courses, and then The two men, soccer coach Sal Esposito and hockey coach Ed Wright, were denied tenure and were then notified that their contracts would not be renewed. Both were victims of the bureaucratic mess which every state agency finds itself engulfed in. There are a seemingly infinite number of rules and regulations which quite often do not accomplish what they were intended to. Excellent or not? In the case of Esposito and Wright, they ran up against a rule which is designed to weed out the poorer professors from the excellent ones. Professors that do research and are highly thought of by others in their field are usually given tenure. Esposito and Wright are both excellent professors and coaches, and are highly thought (of by those in their field, but were probably because the rules for granting tenure specify that research is the not given tenure, main criterion. The fact that both Esposito and Wright are excellent coaches was- demonstrated by last year’s records. The hockey team made the playoffs for the first time in several years, and the soccer team was ranked in State’s top ten last year for the first time ever. Both men are well respected by their peers. Wright was recently named Vice-President of the New York College Hockey Association. Esposito has been a soccer rules interpreter in the Atlantic Coast conference, and served as an official scorer in the 1970 NAIA National Championship. To most people, this would constitute a standard of excellence worth keeping, but the administration has its rules, which it apparently is not willing to bend. So the two coaches, who Weren’t hired to do research, who were never told to do research, who didn’t have time to do research, and who didn’t have the opportunity to do research, were penalized for not doing research. Hail bureaucracy! But aside from all this, athletic teams benefit from a year-to-year continuity. Coaches must recruit players, arrange schedules and perform other mundane tasks, which affect future years’ teams, a lot more so than a' chemistry professor affects future years’, chemistry lectures. effect. (Muto currently tenure). Moreover, the last has two coordinators of women’s athletics, Cincy Anderson and Barbara reportedly left weren’t granted tenure. Esposito holds an even important position more Chairman of the Department of Recreation, Athletics and Related Instructions. It’s not merely good coaches the administration is getting rid of it’s some of the most important members of the Athletic Department. Sevier, because both they — An excellent example of what can happen when there is no continuity from year to year occurred in 1973 with Buffalo’s basketball team. Leo Richardson was appointed as the new coach, but never had time to do any recruiting and so the Bulls that year won five games out of 25. — - Right now, there doesn’t appear to be much that can be done. There is an appeals process, Not just coaches but Esposito realistically Apparently, the bureaucrats that run things around here also don’t realize that as long as the research requirements are not abolished, it is not going to .be difficult to hire quality coaches. expect to gain anything by going through it. Bullpen reports that there would not be a soccer or hockey coach next year, and hence no teams in those sports, Former Buffalo basketball coach Ed Muto admitted that he would not be willing to return to if the coaching research requirement for tenure were in didn’t erroneous, since this University is allowed to fill 90 were percent of its vacancies. In this case, it will (probably) be filling two vacancies it shouldn’t have had. FRYE TIMBERLRND ERMRN Guys & Gals Sizes WASHINGTON SURPLUS CENTER “Tent City" jama, it nmii •S3-1515 Mani.

Monday, 18 October 1976 Today starts the fourth week of intramural football, and with the season half over, the division races are taking shape. Last year’s overall finalists wery the Clits and QB 714, and these two teams ramain on top in their respective divisions, but it hasn’t been easy. Last week, in a thriller, the N.Y. Clits edged Y. Greudel 13-12, surviving a last minute scare when Clit quarterback Paul Dimiero was nearly thrown for a safety. This would have given the game to Y. Greudel, but even though most of Dimiero’s body was in the endzone, the ball did not cross the goal line, thus preserving the victory for the Clits. The Clits lead with a 3-0 record with the Pathogems period. The S.H. Panthers are also 2-0 and the Reamers are 1-1. Both teams are capable of pulling upsets, but at the moment, it seems doubtful. In the Tuesday 3:30 league, Quail is on top at 3-0, with Huth Road 2-1. These two teams meet tomorrow, and even though Quail has been very impressive, Huth Road could surprise if quarterback Jeff Jacobawitz can get his offense going, but don’t bet on it. He’s been thinking too much about basketball. In the Thursday 3:30 Amherst league, Tolchok and Parest 400’s are tied for first place at 3-0. Both k f< the d ion lead.

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

The most controversial area of “disagreement” concerned the famous Ford contention that Poland and other parts of Eastern were not Europe Soviet dominated.

Debates useful Debates are one way to engage figure, rather than Ralph Nader, who is greatly more representative of voter concerns. But Nader just doesn’t have the influence that counts in American politics. In many fact, actual conclusions can be drawn in analyzing a Presidential debate, conclusions that are hopefully of more worth than predictions as to who “won,” a point determined solely be appearances in any case, and largely irrelevent with regard to the issues. First, to whom were the candidates speaking in the debate? In most cases, a speech given in a certain region, or at a specific luncheon, is tailored to the particular groups interest represented there. This is done by choice of topic, manner of presentation, and, as always, lying. In the debates, the audience composition was a close The Spectrum is published Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the academic year and on Friday only the summer during by The Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc.

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

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

Drinking and activity funding broaden the arena of student interests. In New Mexico, a state-wide effort is being made by the Associated Students of New Mexico (ASNM) to force the governor to keep his campaign promise of lowering the drinking age to 18.

Dorothy Davidson, student body vice president, said "there i$ ®n increased sense of student government credibility with the state legislatures”, and feels a successful lobby effort will be made this year.

The conference, scheduled to discuss the National Day of Student Activism and the organization of the Third World aucus, has been relocated because of an inability to house the delegates at this University, and because of a desire to balance the locations among all the state universities. Assistant Director of Housing Cliff Wilson said the reason for the housing problem was “short notice” from SASU. The aim of the National Day of Student Activism (to be held in Albany on October 28), is to organize a peaceful publicity demonstration in protest of the recent budget cuts. “Student movement will become visable,” says Piche. It will be a “media programs through. event” geared toward publicity an illustration of “student solidarity,” she added. Piche says students react to the immediacy of crises, and many don’t realize that budget cuts are happening now.

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

During the summer when most of the student body had departed for parts unknown, building maintenance removed many of the mirrors from Norton Hall. Mirrors have disappeared from men’s rooms in other buildings, too, although mirrors remain in the women’s restrooms. In the UGL men’s room, one of the towel racks is out of order due to a taulty wooden dowel. Maintenance claimed the dowel needed only to be sanded but they couldn’t get the sandpaper. Why is sandpaper so hard to come by? It would seem that maintenance prefers to make their own lives easier at the expense of student service.

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

The exhibit, entitled Dream Displacement and Other Projects, contains two film installations, various prints and drawings from 1966 to 1976, and several-frozen film frames. This particular show represents a new effort by to the its definition of Albright expand contemporary art, recognizing need to include avant-garde film for a museum public who might otherwise be deprived of this relatively new art form. However, bringing film to a gallery presents certain difficulties, which are inherent in the nature of film itself. But these difficulties are minimal at this exhibit, in which film is nof simply screened, but presented in “picture" form as well. Sharits' frozen frames are 16 mm. filmstrips mounted in plexi- glass, and hung from the ceiling so that light passes through. It is a startling concept. The area and space of film becomes presented as a whole, producing an effect quite' disimilar frorrTa screening of film through a projector. One is faced with a mass of colored ribbons, as with "Dream Displacement Reel A", which viewed as a whole, appears to be an intricate tapestry of maroon and gold, with a touch of green. One becomes aware then, of the flexibility in presenting fitm in its various aesthetic forms. not cinema For example, in "Replica 1", Sharits has taken some frames of film and has blown them up to the extent that they appear to be photo-silkscreens on a negative, with bright purple, green, orange, and black colors composing the fragmented, almost violent images of the 16 mm. film frame. This is another effort to broaden the traditional concept of film. By blowing up frames, or handing them up as a unified whole, the museum-goer becomes aware of the Film ’age eight . #.•• nature of avant-garde film, a genre which uses film for its own pruposes, rather than beiqg restricted by the medium they choose. Other pieces in the exhibit produce further insight into the nature of experimental filfn. Sharits includes studies and scores from his films, which simply appear to be an arrangement of colored dots on graph paper. As such, they are visually appealing, but their actual purpose is as a score, each dot in each square representing a frame, the sequence of which is crucial to the structure of the film. A personal touch is given by the inclusion of two pages of a journal by Mr. Sharits, done while his the making. The film T,0,U,C,H,l,N,G, journal reveals the slow, torturous process of an artist immersed in his work, anxious to have the product done. Mystery train The film installation, however, is the crown of this exhibit, its unique impact provoking strong auidence response. The color film projections one sees are the result of having four film loops projected as a single image, images which are accompanied by quadrophonic sound. The affect is something like passing trains with colored windows. On the whole, the film defies being explained by anyone not totally familiar with the and art, the technical considerations which accompany it. In any event, the exhibit is an innovative and compelling one for the Albright-Knox. It should be viewed especially by those who have remained unexposed to this art form. The presentation of Mr. Sharits' work enables one to view his film from various angles, creating an awareness of the utilization of film as an art form. One can isolate concepts behind each film, can view the film as a painting with brush stroke frames, and can begin to understand the work involved -in producing such films as has Mr. Sharits, which he describes as "intensified places" and "contemplative reflection". The exhibit is on view until October 31, 1976. Screenings of Sharits' films will parallel the exhibit. The Spectrum Frii [ay, 15 October 1976 . » * ..J ■•■» ..

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

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

A newspaper recent article mentioned that Gregg was attending a course at the University of Buffalo. In fact. Gregg is being tutored at the Lipton's home by Steve Wallace, who is also a student advisor. Gregg said he doesn't know why he didn't do this when he was just staring oOt and discussed the practical purposes of this type of education; "I can go into a studio and some guy can hand me a chart and I would be able to look at it and on the spot be able to sit down and play it." In the course he learns to score by practicing his own music. "Wallace will sit down apd teach me how to score Midnight Rider." While Allman is interested in seeing more of the University campus, so far he has only driven around. "I really don't think it would be easy for me to walk around the place" said Altman. It is still possible that in the future, though, one might see the newly stocky Allman walking through the Union or even sitting in a class room.

Sometime after that Gregg will start working on another solo album, sp far now he is busy learning to score the twenty-odd string musicians and horn players that he will use in his forthcoming work. Mrs. Upton had this to say in conclusion about Gregg Allman "Gregg is an extremely talented, sensitive and underrated fellow. People will be hearing a lot of good stuff from him in the future." In my own words, I — agree. producer Chris Bond. "On our first albums we were going through a teething period with Chris, but now we have a telepathic communication with him. Everyone is so obsessed with "well made" records these days, he said, "there's a constant temptation in the studio to be overly meticulous. We're too close to our writing and we really need Chris as a moderator. We throw out ideas but we leave the knobtwirling to the engineers and the important decisions to Chris." With so many artists being continuously over- or underproduced, it's refreshing to know that talent of the caliber of Hall and Oates is being properly and efficiently handled in the studio. Comparing Bigger Than Both Of Us with Hall and Oates' Other albums is difficult because they're all so different. Their first disc, Whole Cats was primarily accoustic and folk oriented, while the follow-up, Abandoned Luncheonette, was th.eir most R & B influenced, with the concentration on melodies and harmonies. "She's Qpne" came from this album. War Babies, probably their best album, is the rockiest. Produced and arranged by Todd Rundgren, if any of their albums should have "broke” for them, it should have been this one. Although it won t, War Babies should go down as one of the true classics of the seventies. After War Babies came the "silver" album, which was more of a return to their R B style with accentuation on vocals and Bigger Than Both Of Us is a fusion of everything they've melodies. done before. A little R & B, some rock, some jazz: it's Hall and Oates finally hitting their stride and putting it all together. They seem to have found their own little niche in music, and Bigger Than Both Of Us should satisfy everyone. -Steven Brieff & Prodigal Sun �* RECORDS The Stills-Yogng Band, Long May You Run (Reprise) Eric Clapton, No Reason to Cry Night), his songwriting and guitar talents have playing remained relatively intact. Perhaps (Pol^d^r) the stoned-out vocals are used as intentional emphasis, or maybe he is the Most Wasted, and is only occasionally creative by accident or coincidence. In any event, last winter’s Zuma Ip, which saw Young reunited with Crazy Horse (his original backup band), was acclaimed by the press as a huge off-key achievement, artistic singing and all. So, when Neil Young joined forces with Stephen Stills for last summer's recording sessions and abortive (cancelled after two weeks) tour, it was seen by the rock press as a great errand of good old Neil was mercy touring and recording with poor old Steve, trying to get him back on his creative feet again, even though to the "untrained ear," it sounded as if both could use a little help. Buffalo Springfield they ain't. Strangely enough, Long May You Run supports the "Young as artist, Stills as burnout" theory The recent release of alburns both the short-lived by Band and the Stills-Young Clapton Eric long-winded rhenagerie has given us something interesting (though depressing) to think about. Entitled Long May You Run and No Reason to Cry respectively, the records reflect similar origins (the reaffirmation of a faltering musician's existence) and both are, for the most part, disappointments. Although each one succeeds in its own limited neither comes close to comparison with what the artists in question were producing, say, five years ago How does the old story go?

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

To meet this increased demand, the Craft Center has initiated a number of new programs this year. Heading the list are a series of comprehensive workshops designed for beginners. Areas of major interest include ceramics, jewelry making, wearing, lapidary and photography. Most of the workshops require no experience and are designed to give a basic understanding of the field. The instruction is light and the atmosphere stresses enjoyment. Fischer points out that the workshops “aim for quality, but are also there to meet the students’ needs.” The Workshops are open to all members of the University community (students, faculty, staff, alumni and the general community), and are scheduled to meet at both the Main Street and Amherst Campuses. Since nearly all of the Student Activities monies have been cut from the program, a membership fee does exist. Registration, scheduling and membership fee information can be obtained in Room 7 of Norton Hall or at the Craft Center in the Millard Fillmore Academic Core in the Ellicott Complex.

The 18th annual United States Grand Prix for Formula 1 cars was held here last weekend, and England’s James Hunt, driving a McLaren, led the field. The Glen is the 15fh of 16 races this year that will determine the world’s championship of auto racing.

Since then, the curbing has been cut to four inches. The race is 200 miles long, and a total of 59 laps.

On lap 36, he had conquered Scheckter’s eight second advantage and went by. He began to build his own lead, again resetting the lap record on lap 38. Scheckter repassed him three laps later and tried to hold Hunt off, but on lap 46 Hunt finally put him away for good.

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

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

The win raises their record to 2-4. In first place on the 5.8 mile course was Buffalo’s Bob “Doc” Howard, who needed a big kick in the last 200 yards to take the lead. He had trailed for most of the race, but not by much. His ©The Qap 1976 winning time was 31:02.

Buffalo’s fourth finisher and eighth overall was Mark Rybinski. According to Gantz, his effort swayed the match in Buffalo’s favor. He was behind by 150 yards (a considerable distance) with about two miles to go. During the race, he learned that he had to overtake the two Bonnies’ runners in front of him, and with a furious kick, he passed them with about 200 yards to go. Had he not done this, Buffalo would have lost the match. Bulls coach Walter Gantz called Golf at the BIG FOUR Championships, River Oaks Golf Club. October 11.

Last Saturday, the Bulls had to battle both the elements and quite a few runners with scholarships, as they lost a triangular meet to Cleveland State and Fredonia. No Buffalo runner finished in the top ten. Nevertheless, Gantz felt that the Bulls turned in a very creditable performance under the circumstances. They were usually ankle deep in mud throughout the race. That day, Gantz predicted that as soon as they faced a team (St. without scholarships Bonaventure), they would be winners.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The the Congress and the American President’s remark seemed to people, citing the Vietnam aid leave serious doubts about his controversy and the recent sagacity, judgment and willingness Rhodesian agreement as prime to assert American leadership illustrations.

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

After reading Bill Martin’s Guest Opinion in Friday's issue of The Spectrum (Oct. 1, 1976), I feel 1 should explain the “deplorable conduct” of myself and Student Association. Last year, Student Association spent over $500 on a survey to establish priorities for funding. The outcome was that “Free Legal Representation” was a top priority. With this in mind, Student Association set up a committee to investigate and establish a plan for a Group Legal Services Clinic. In October the committee recessed to allow the Legal Aid Clinic the opportunity to come up with their own proposal. About six jnonths later, the Legal Aid proposal was presented in front of Sub Board I, Inc. (not the committee, for reasons 1 still don’t know) and it called for each student to pay $36 (on top of the $67 mandatory fee) to join the plan and in turn receive very limited coverage. This proposal was rejected because it was felt students would not pay the additional $36. consisting So another committee was formed of one undergraduate, one graduate, and one law student. The ball park figure we had to work with was $30,000. The first question of hiring a law firm or a panel of lawyers. It was decided to hire a law firm. If we hired a panel of attorneys then we could not get “unlimited service” because we would be paying by the hour. Instead we pay the law firm a “stipend” and get more service then for what we which saves pay. (Almost unlimited services students thousands of dollars). If the attorneys are lackadaisical, then they are breaking the contract and we can withhold their payments. (Also, because they signed a contract, they cannot ask for more Paige Miller John Reiss Press Service, Field Newspaper The Spectrum is served by the College Republic Feature Syndicate, Los Angeles Times Syndicate, and New Syndicate. 1976 Buffalo, N.V.

Martin also feels that $30,000 is an outrageous figure to pay. I agree. In order for this to hoped be an all-conclusive plan (which 1 originally cost would it whatsoever, no limits for) approximately $50,000. But because of the budget crunch, only $30,000 was allocated. Thirty-thousand dollars is a lot of money, but let me put it in Mr. Mr. Martin’s criticisms are all valid, and in the general interest of (he body politic pf this University. Such scrutiny of SA and Sub Board by “in-house” seems unsurpassed activities who’ve been elected by an representatives unknowing student body. His desire to make students aware of this problem is admirable, and I hope it will perpetuate more written works in The Spectrum (it being the primary medium to inform students) that will invoke genuine student appraisal of SA’s activities. Too many people in too many positions within too many student clubs have been subtly coerced into being hypocritical of SA by their own fears of losing funding. SA funds these clubs, services and special interest groups, and re-evaluates their fiscal status annually (with this statement 1 must entertain the fear of decreased funding in the future for an organization 1 work with). Such fear, though justified, is nearly as deplorable as Mr. Brownstein’s political hackery of Bill Martin’s perfectly sensible evaluation of the proposed Legal Services Program. Richard H. Fox ton Jr. ’ - Wednesday, 13 October 1976 Vol. 27, No SA people who suppressed the endorsement by the Co-Op never attended this mandatory meeting, nor did they seek out established policy, before approaching the people at the Record Co-Op. It was later re-affirmed by the Elections and Credentials Committee that these candidates did in fact have the right to obtain endorsement by the Record Co-Op. these important questions Upon raising (challenging the validity of the election) on the phone with the Elections and Credentials Committee Chairperson, Gloria Gerber, someone interfered with our phone conversation and hung up the phone. Bill Martin’s desire to see “administrative scrutiny” applied to the Legal Services Program Proposal (as was agreed upon By Sub Board) brings forth a much broader question; What organization with authority does scrutinize SA? Has its autonomy allowed it to become too powerful, irresponsible, and unresponsive to the vast majority of students who’ve voted for its elected officials? Somewhere between the stipends and the students the answer must be found. I leave it up to you. perspective. If we did not establish the Legal Services Clinic, we would still be spending close to $35,000 on. Legal Aid and lawyers retainers. So for about the same amount of money, we are getting a much better service and expanded program. One of the most important points that Mr. Martin brings up is that the program will be totally inadequate in it’s coverage. In all honesty, I don’t know if that it true. However, Mr. Martin has no right to criticize the program for that. When these we took the data from priorities were drawn up the SA Legal Aid Clinic at the clinic. I was told that over 50% of all arrests are drug related. The person then went over the priorities and helped set them up. And who was that person? None other than Bill If Mr. Martin knew that Martin. My question is drugs related arrests did not make up 50% of all arrests, why didn’t he say so? But remember, if the priorities are not meeting the needs of the students, the Board of Directors of Sub Board 1 has the option of hanging those priorities, because this is a pilot program and we are expecting to adjust it. Of course we did not submit the plan to Dr. Lorenzetti before Mr. Martin. It is normal practice to submit a plan after it is approved, not before. So after Mr. Martin shook our hands and told us how he would help us, that Thursday night at the close of the budget hearing (2 a.m.), he went over to Dr. Lorenzetti early Friday to try to have it stopped. The proposal was submitted to Dr. Lorenzetti early the next week. So in conclusion, the Board of Directors of Sub Board I, Inc. voted unanimously to adopt the Legal Services Program. Why? Because the arguments that were presented established that the Legal Services Program was a better program than what exists now. Also, establishing the Legal Services Program is in “the best interest of the students while maintaining the Legal Aid Clinic would be in the best interest of the Legal Aid Clinic.” We chose to act in the best interest of the students, not of any organization. — — Steven Schwartz, President Student Association Editor-in-Chief Wednesday, 13 October 1976 . The Spectrum Page . nine �Bob Dylan. I he story so fei: Bob Dylan was twenty years old when his first Columbia album,“Bob Dylan” was released. It caused its biggest stir in New York’s Greenwich Village where Bob was a local favorite.The liner notes included a reprint of Robert Shelton’s 1961 piece in The New YorkTimes entitled,’’Bob Dylan: A Distinctive Folk-Song StylistTIt included this memorable description \ of Bob Dylan: “Resembling a cross between a choirboy and a beatnick, Mr. Dylan has a cherubic look and a mop of tousled hair he partly covers with a Huck Finn black corduroy cap. His clothes may need a bit of tailoring but when he works his guitar, harmonica or piano and composes new songs faster than he can remember them, there is no doubt that he is bursting at the seams with talent."The first album contained a few originals like “Talkin' New York” and "Song to Woody” and a lot of traditional and composed folk tunes adapted to the emerging Bob Dylan style, including “House of the Risin'Suni'“Man ofConstant Sorrow,”“Fixin’to Die;’“Pretty Peggy-0|’ “Gospel Plow” and “Freight Train Blues.” • • • It took Peter, Paul and Mary’s recording of“Blowin’in the Wind!’a tune from Bob Dylan’s second album, to direct some national attention to this new songwriter. Peter, Paul and Mary followed up their biggest hit with another tune from “The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan” album, "Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right'.' And the movement was under way. As soon as people got Bob Dylan’s album and heard sOngs like "A Hard Rain’s A-Gohna Fall’’ “Masters of War," “Oxford Town" "Talkin' World War 111 Blues',' and even the lovely "Girl From theNorthCountry," the word spread. Here was somebody who could put it into words. Someone that had to be listened to. And since there wasn't much of a chance to hear Bob Dylan's most powerful songs on the radio, an underground was born: * * • The latest words from Bob Dylan disappointed no one. His “The Times They Are A-Changin’” album took the concept of 'protest music" still another step farther. And by now the stark Bob Dylan style of guitar, harmonica.half-singing.half-talking, was known and accepted (and was being copied) by people everywhere. The new -songs were exciting: With God on Our Side,” One Too Many Mornings,” ‘Only a Pawn in Their Game," “The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll.' “When,the Ship Comes In;’“North Country Blues’,'"Ballad of Hollis Brown"and “Rest less Farewell!' w r 0 0 0 In the song “My Back Pages” Bob Dylan questions his role as the guru of young America. He seems intent on changing his image with the explanation,“1 was so much older then, I'm younger than that now.' Most of the new songs on “Another Side of BobDylan”are less political,more personal. It Ain't Me Babe”drives home the point. All I Really Want to Do!' Motorpsycho Nitemare!' "I Shall Be Free No. 11),""Ballad I in Plain D,' Chimes of Freedom,” Black Crow Blues" and "I Don't Believe You" all seem declarations of freedom from his past. Clues to his future. Bob Dylan fans wonder what's next. Little do they suspect. 1 flk * * • Bob Dylan's first commercial single. Subterranean Homesick Blues,”and a halfelectric, half-acoustic album of enigmatic, rocking, funny, great new tunes. That was next. And with “Bringing^!It 'All Back Home,” the legend of the efer 'changing, always pioneering musical force was bom. The songs confused a lot of people who thought they Hfili 1 him knew Bob Dylan. Which is probably the precise effect Bob Dylan wanted. Included are She Belongs to Me,” "Maggie’s v Farm,” "Love Minus Zero/NoLimit,"“Outlaw Blues,”“Mr. Tambourine Man,” “Gates of Eden,” “It’s Alright Ma (I’m Only Bleeding)," and for anybody who still didn’t get the hint, “It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue." •’ “Highway 61 Revisited” was Bob Dylan’s first all-electric, no-doubt-about-the-kindof-music-I-choose-to-make album. It contains his first big hit,“Like a Rolling Stone." And it declared for all the world to hear that Bob Dylan wasn’t simply a brilliant songwriter, but a magnific e n t rock vocalist as well. The songs are extensions of thenewcryptic Bob Dylan stylet’it Takes a Lot to Laugh, ItTakes aTrain toCry,"“Ballad ofaThin Man,"“Queen Jane Approximately,” “Desolation Row,” “Just Like Tom Thumb s Blues,"“From a Buick 6',' "TombstoneB1 uesl'With Michael Bloomfield on guitar, A1 Kooper on organ and piano, Charlie McCoy on guitar and Russ Savakus on bass. • • * In a 1976 issueof Crawdaddy,Peter K nobler said. "No question about it. ‘Blonde on Blonde’is the best rock'n'roll record ever made." He's not the first to feel that way. Reviewers at the time of its release called Blonde on Blonde” the definitive Bob Dylan album, the ultimate rock album, and even the ultimate album, period. It's a two-record set, recorded in Nashville with one of the greatest backup bands in recording history:Charlie McCoy, Kenneth Buttrey, Joe South, A1 Kooper, Jaime Robertson, Wayne Moss and Jerry Kennedy.

'When 1 Paint My Masterpiece" and “I Shall Be Released,” songs recorded by The Band. "You Ain't Coin’ Nowhere"and"Tomorrow Is a Long Time,” recorded by countless people, but never Bob Dylan. And “Down in the Flood," an old favorite from Bob Dylan’s concert days. Twenty-one great hits in all. If you have all the other albums it’s a beautiful luxury. If you don’t, it's a necessity. hit that wasn’t included tory, this one is completely composed and performed by Bob Dylan, so it’s not like any soundtrack you’ve ever heard.

And as it turned out, one of the real nice songs turned into one of Bob Dylan’s biggest singles, “Knockin’ on Heaven's Door." • • • No individual in rock has ever heard more different interpretations of his songs than Bob Dylan.

The critics couldn't say enough about “Blood on the Tracks,”the start of a new period of brutally personal music making for Bob Dylan. All that talk about Bob Dylan coming home was literally (in addition to spiritually) true. “Idiot Wind!’ “Tangled Up in Blue;’and“Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts;’among others, were recorded in Minnesota using local musicians. The owner of a local guitar store dropped by to sell Bob Dylan a guitar and wound up playing on the session. And the bass player had to leave mid-session to play a bar date, so “You’re a Big Girl Now” was recorded sans bass. Other classics on the “album of thecentury’’include:“SimpleTwist of Fate,” “You’re Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go,”“Meet Me in the Morning,’’“If You See Her, Say Hello;’ “Shelter From the Storm”and "Buckets of Rain.” “Bob Dylan is home.''“Album of • • • Rolling Slone declared seven albums as “Albums of the Year" in 1975.

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

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

The broadcast, and NYPIRG, sponsored by WBFO featured representatives of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML), the New York Bar Association Criminal Justice Division, the New York State Office of Drug Abuse Services, and Substance, Abuse and You (SAY). The debate centered around the relative personal and societal harm that is caused by the drug and the social costs involved in prosecuting cases of illegal possession. Possession of marijuana was initially made illegal in 1937 by the passage of the Marijuana Tax Act, which classified carinibus as a narcotic. The Controlled Substances Act reclassified the drug as a hallucinogen in 1970. During this time a Debate... Frank Firoamonti, an attorney and New York State Director for NORML, the pro-marijuana reform legislation lobby, felt that marijuana “prohibition” has not been successful. “The legislation currently on the books is unenforcable. The laws have failed as a deterrent. Last year, 27,000 people were arrested for possession of marijuana in New York State, at a t<?tal cost of $60,000,000 to the taxpayers,” Fioramonti said. “The legal and social costs are tpo great for it to be practical to continue present policy,” he added. Charles Schiano of SAY, a Rochester based drug counseling center; voiced a unawareness of foreign affairs realities. Iran, he indicated, is of strategic importance to page counseling therapy. Especially prominent in Schiano s argument are the findings of Dr. Gabriel Nahas of Columbia University. Nahas’ research has indicated a disruption in the D.N.A. synthesis of the regular pot smoker (three to five joints per week over a period of three to four years). Schiano also cites the findings of a professor at the University of Pros and cons —continued form Tulane incident, policy on the Panama Canal, and their stances on Taiwan.

He said that those coaches who desire it should be allowed to apply for tenure, but also should be given the option of Page fourteen . chronic Scientific confusion However, decriminalization proponents were able to point out contradictory scientific findings, including those of the twelve-man presidential commission of 1970, which was not able to muster any evidence of genetic damage caused by pot . smoking. Fioramonti claimed NORML does not advocate the use of marijuana. “In fact, w'e discourage the use of any recreational drug, In closing, 1 must comment on two Of Carter’s points that, may disturb those who recall past American foreign policy failures. The first was his advocacy of bilateral agreements. This is America’s because troubling while involvement, Vietnam sanctioned by the ostensibly SEATO Treaty, was basically the result of a bilateral agreement. The other was a call in his closing statement for America to become the “beacon” for nations seeking freedom. This evoked memories of JFK’s famed inaugural speech. This is a worthy goal if it manifests itself in policies that commit our government to the pursuit of fundamental human abroad. The historical rights record, however, shows that this aim led to has inevitably America’s assuming the role of “policeman of the world.” Many feel this was responsible for our tragic entanglement in Vietnam. - pressing problems.

However, there is no conclusive proof of the harmfulness of marijuana. To think that it is safer and healthier for young people to be arrested, fingerprinted, handcuffed and put in jail is an inhumane treatment of the problem.” Joseph Sedita, Secretary of the New York State Bar Association Criminal Justice Division which has officially advocated decriminalization since 1973 is of similar mind. “Do we impose criminal sanction when we are not sure of the consequences of the act? When the scientists are at odds, does the legislature jump in and make personal acts criminal? Our main complaint is uneven application of the law. In New York City they won’t even issue an indictment for less than ten pounds.” Sedita feels that, owing to the wealth of scientific contradiction on the matter, the marijuana question must eventually be settled on a legal basis. The official statement of his agency claims that enforcement of anti-marijuana legislation “undermines respect for all law” and is therefore counterproductive. He feels police must be allowed to rearrange their enforcement priorities so that these resources can be directed toward more 6— NATO’s Soviet deterrence force. repeatedly emphasized morality in Carter’s lack of experience in the conduct of foreign policy, foreign policy could have been failed to question whether the exploited more, effectively by the seizing of the Mayaguez and the President.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Self-indulgence and roadweariness on the part of the performer, bad acoustics or amplification in the concert hall, as well as the difficulties of reproducing the many nuances of the recording studio live, all combine to make concert tickets a risky investment, even in the case of a favorite act. Case in point: Nils Lofgran. Last Saturday night was the second time in three months that Lofgren and his band played the Western New York area, and the difference between that show (in Clark Gym) and the previous one (at the Outside Inn in Angola, N.V.) was amazing. Nils may or may not have been touring nonstop since the excellent show in July, but it seemed as if he had, for much of the vitality and organization which was present then was now gone.

Music Editor UNBEL1EVAU adaptation of Wiesman's novel; and a cast including Glenda Jackson, Michael Caine and Helmut Berger. The title of Alexander Kluge's The Occasional Work of a Female Slave alludes to its plot of a young woman who is forced into everyday employment when her political agitation loses her husband his job. Alexandra Kluge, the director's sister, has the leading role. Call Not so special One common difference between club dates and concert hall outings is the presence of a warmup band. And in this case, they were .38 Special, a Southern outift whose biggest claim to fame is that one of their guitarists is the brother of Ron Van Zandt, singer for Lynyrd Skynyrd. Big deal. Their music was, surprisingly enough, quite a bit like that of Skynyrd (even their singer is a Van Zandt look-alike) or, for that matter, any one of the many Mason-Dixon groups: twin lead guitars, two drummers, lots of songs about trains and trucks, etc. Their set was refreshingly tight (like many bands who have not yet achieved fame, .38 Special seems to try a little harder) and, despite the "all been said before" nature of their material, they were fairly entertaining. Although the audience did not demand an encore, one was prompted by the M.C. the guys didn't even leave the stage long enough to see if the crowd really wanted them back. After a brief equipment changeover, Lofgren took the stage with his five-piece backup group (a new keyboard player has been added since the Outside Inn show) and began the first of a series of sloppy, ultra-loud versions of some of his finest songs. Bobby Manriquez, Nils' second lead guitar player, is not taking a much more active part in the group (presently called the Bobby Manriquez band) and his new stature is not only distracting, downright but annoying. Whereas Manriquez' duties at the time of this summer's concert were largely subservient (playing guitar harmony lines, filling in Lofgren-like leads while Nils was busy singing), he is now playing the part of "leader of the band": guitar-god theatrics, loud, lengthy solos, rhythm guitar parts turned up enough to drown out everyone else, (as on the song "Share a Little") and so on. — comliment to Nils' own lead guitar and piano work. Saturday night, he was relegated the task of playing inaudible rhythm guitar throughout most of the set, with a few brief stints at piano. This altered lineup, with Tommy taking the back seat to a keyboard player who didn't fit in, ruined many songs, most notably Carole King's "Coin' Back," whose once meticulously tight arrangement was the highlight of the "bootleg" Back It Up album. Nils himself (as could be expected) put forth the best performance of anyone present his rheumy singing, fiery guitar and precise piano playing were characteristically excellent, despite the lousy sound system, which marred the impact of all three. The star himself was being outdone in volume by his accompanists in more than a few places. He did manage to come through well at times, ("Cry — Tough," "Keith Won't Go" and "It's Not a Crime" were probably his best moments) but the impression I got was that he was not nearly as inspired as he had been last July. Victim of circumstance is a very talented and his band (as previously demonstrated) has the potential to be a great one. As it happened though. Nils was a victim unfavorable of circumstances this last time around this may or may not be a cause for discouragement, but I, for one, intend to give him a second (third) chance. It may just be that I expected too much after Too many cooks what I had seen at the Outside The new keyboard player, Inn; several people who had never although reasonably accomplished seen the act before were very at his job, did not seem to know pleased by Saturday's show. the material as well as everyone Maybe one just has to see a else, and was superfluous in many performer two or three times to places.

Porush really something different, or just another, Special to The Spectrum poorer version of Da Move/ease, one with less sensory excitement, one cooler to the A cough is a sudden convulsive muscular response to an irritant, an external stumulus. It is characterized by a primary contraction of the lungs and accompanied by uncontrollable contractions of the anal sphincter, the p#-itoneal membrane (a deep, sexually sensitive structure) and the scrotum or vaginal cavity. The most telling aspect of the production of Dale Wasserman's stage adaptation of Ken Kesey's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest in Shea's Theatre Saturday night was the continual, irritating coughing. The audience seemed to be coughing its response to the play. Like the old applause meters which encouraged the audiences of Ted Mack's Amateur Hour to clap harder so the people could see their broadcasted, responses measured, producing outcomes, altering reality and ouw presence, the confirming their coughing which rose from the pits and the balconies provided a continual cacaphonic commentary on the play, a measure not of the volume of applause but the depth of by elicted anxiety the theatrical black men, and all play on the racism which must have been so appealing to the good folks of Buffalo (and Cleveland and Chicago and ...) who had to travel through big, Night/Downtown bad underbelly of Buffalo to get to see the touch. Those kakakaka rapid fire bursts were aimed by the audience at the ambigious screen of illusion created by theatre and attempt to puncture holes in it. The outcome is still in doubt, unless one agrees that drowning out the dialogue was a telling victory. play.. Shea's Theater is a half-block from notorious Chippewa Street. Across Main Street the Funk Factory disco blared, "Play that funky music, white boy!" Inside, meanwhile, a newer version of Amos n Andy, Amos n Andy turned Black Panther malicious, were disguised as hospital aides. Oh, they still yesmassa'd when de white lady cofhe into de room, but they would kick Chief Bromden (a fine irony) and abuse the lobotomized Vegtable-Christ whose hands remained nailed to the bathroom doorposts, a Paschal Lamb. The night shift aide is our Stepinfetchit resurrected for entertainment; still afraid of ghosts in the dark, still lazy and shiftless, still taking pratfalls and doubletakes, smoking pot and getting drunk. 1 found myself hoping that they were really only sons of Amos n' Anachronism Just might have been. One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is ci political and moral anachronism. Perhaps that's why it is so appealing in this era of retrenchment. Insofar as it participates in eternally satisfying myths of a hero's confrontation with the forces of evil, it is outside time and is neither obsolete nor prophetic. But, to the extent to which it uses American culture of the sixties or the microcultural context of an American insane asylum as the stage for these mythical re-enactments, it sorely needs some kind of review* some renewal. O.K. So the world is crazy, and there's — — In the end, at bottom of it all, is the anal sphincter, the brown back door in contracting harder and further homosexual panic as the ward of ten men (including aides and doctor) lisp, prance, embrace, cry, sprawl, cross legs at the knees, stutter M-m-m-m-mama under the maternal Medusa’s head petrification of the mammarian Patched, ultimate Big Nurse who weans her patients only from their sanity and selfhood, "Sucher!" the aides mutter at the patients. "Suck her!” Kesey's and Wasserman's best shot in this vein is when MacMurphy reaches his hammy hnads out to Big Nurse's knobs and gestures tike Aladdin conjuring a genie or a frustrated child playing with T.V. dials as the tube blinks nonsense at him. "Maybe if I can work these right," Mac says, "I can pick up channel eight." What was a smattering of gentle and polite coughs smothered behind cupped hands during the first few scenes, mounted as the play progressed to a climactic orgy — — play. ace, Andy, that is, white men in blac who whined and cringed and sang the blues and talked in jive. The audience really laughed at that stuff. Boy, they went for that But when the little white nurse, the one with a crush on MacMurphy and a large cross pendant over her breasts is almost who gets a hand up taken down by Mac her snatch and another on her tit quicker than you can say “Mercury Molestation" she cries out, "Don't Touch Me! I'm Catholic!" The audience died. Not a sound. Not a cough, not even a giggle, a burp, nothing. Silence. Though the scene was like a hundred other sexual gags which tickled the collective scrotum/labia into laughter. 'Ohmigod," I thought, "they're in the wrong four-fifths of this town." Tm sure their silence wasn't feminist sympathy, nobody here but us psychopaths and paranoiacs. So what else is new? O.K. So institutions are evil and will work like Hell to get you.

We Killer Kennedy see the outlines of the Combine more clearly now in 1976, and it is whispered in a chant of acronyms: CIA FBI EXXON ATT IBM... The sorry fact is that OFOTCN is part of it, is one more once-experimental and radical work whose innovativeness and social protest has been undermined by the creep of a cultural Urobouros, the self-consuming worm. OFTOCN is now used against its own audience by the Combine, and only the thoughtless could think this an innocent, thoughtful work. — Terra incognita Perhaps this strange response was a result of what my evening's charming company mentioned earlier: "They’ve seen and it's spoiled the movie,” she noted, the play." Or, perhaps, it was a more general case of cinematic spoilage. For many there this might have been the first theatrical production they had seen, outside a high school play or two. They had no model for their response. This was terra incognita. The closest thing to a play they had ever witnessed might have been a third and long yardage pass by Joe Ferguson. They were treading on turf reserved for intellectuals and other upper class creatures. A fat man behing me leaned over to his wife and whispered in a stage whisper, "When am I supposed to clap?" Thus, nervous, self-conscious coughing. " Or, perhaps, for some, the novelty of 3-D beings parading around on stage just had to be tested. The fact that not only could the audinece hear the actors, but the actors could hear the audience dawned slowly but surely. And at intimate moments (there were so few) the coughers resisted the spell of intimacy which even the largest and corniest of theatrical productions casts, and instead, engaged the actors in a contest of auditory wills, testing the limits of the media to see if this was Prodigal Sun Anal sphincter The jokes, yes, are the Butz-&-locker room variety and my laughter (I couldn't help laughing either; no sense having my deep, sexually-sensitive organ of laughter, excised. I sympathize, brothers and sisters, but I'm not a New Puritan. No way.) My laughter, I say, was mixed with a profound pity for Kesey's hopeless jockhead; you see, he was All-state wrestling champion in the fifties for Oregon. Now he's betrayed all vestiges of MacMurphyness and leads PTA committees and grass roots ecology movements that are doomed to failure before they start, out of his farm in Eugene, Oregon, site of the Electric Cooi-Aid Acid Test.

As the coughing was so loud as. to actually drown out the dialogue, one joker sustained a long, loud, self-conscious hysterical sound, a hybrid of an engine sputtering and a cow dying. Coming at one of the more dramatic moments of the play when Randall Mac Murphy plays the mirror of Chief it Bromden's moral size and sanity emphasized the discomfort and anxiety the audience experienced at having to watch a hall?) If fOr no other reason, Kesey and Wasserman's play succeeds because it captures an American voice: that vast masculine rumbling from the locker rooms, found in the whisperings of the eternal Butzman flying over the States, spreading his scatology and racism like a cropduster spreads his DDT. — — - Stepin Fetchitism Yes, the coughs were an appropriate response to the play. The lungs found the air exhaled by the play irritating, like the fetid musty odors of a museum, or worse, the symbolic, vestigial odors of a father s corpse, a father you wanted to remain buried. Something stuck in the throat. What? Well, maybe it was the cringing mortification felt at the roles played by black men in "Cuckoo's Nest": there are three black roles, they are tailored for either. / Yes, the coughs were also a reproach to the long smutty joke which is OFOTCN. The scrotum contract were drawn upward into the body, the vaginal'walls clamped shut to prevent forced entry as the jokes which everyone found so brawlingly funny repeated in perfect timing. If Kesey and the playwright. Dale Wasserman share something that makes this play work unfailingly to hold attention, it is comic timing. In the setting of Shea's Theater with its kitschy but endearing pastel embellishment and frenzy of mixed-period furniture, carpeting, American elegance, one soon came to realize the play had found its proper setting: a vaudeville stage, though one disguised as a yet-unnamed something else. (Movie house? Concert Recalcitrant child The play, made from a book and seen after a cinema box-office hit, finally suggests a final resting place for the lobotomized McMurphy and the rest of his crew of castrates; T.V. From a seat in the balcony one could put these things in were These characters perspective. caricatures. It didn't really matter if one could distinguish nuances of facial expression or inflections. The birdlike hands of Dale Harding, so poignant a theme in the novel, is alluded to but never used in the play, as though this were theater (properly the place for such devices) striving to become a T.V. sitcom, avoiding all but the grosser mechanics which could be seen even on 4" screens, shouting lines over the coughing chorus and dim gulf between seat and stage. Perhaps T.V. isn't ready yet, just yet, for this kind of titillation, for the childish curses, breast-fixation and broad humor; but One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, recalcitrant child of the Boob Tube, bertainly depends on punches thrown, homosexual pratfalls, vaudeville humiliation, minor high school locker Night Monday lewdnesses, room Manicheism and racist sterotypes, which, if only they can be managed correctly, might be picked up on Channel Eight. Sometime in 1978. Maybe we'll have forgotten enough about the way things were supposed to be by then, have cured this nagging cough, and will settle down to a good half-hour of "Swine Flu Over the Cuckoo's Nest."

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

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

"We're not used to playing colleges; we usually play clubs, but this [concert] was great," relates Johnny. He embraces photographer Vazquez, embraces the reporter, and says, 'We're just lucky to be on record, very lucky and lucky to play." Those that hear this band are the lucky ones. Though not the best congregation of musicians in the world, the pervading sense of happiness Southside and the Jukes slip into their music is conveyed implicitly to all. May the good times never end.

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

At this point friends and I moved to the upper reaches of the hall. Though the songs that followed this move were done well I noticed that there was something missing.

With a resurrection of the "Other One," they jammed, drum-soloed and mesmerized the altogether audience.

Unfortunately the sour note was the encore. With so much material to work with, I find it a shame that they ended' with "U.S. Blues."

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

And Richard Monette's Caliban is a bit too much the buffoon, too Crazy Guggenheim-ish, although his speeches describing his him perceptions of the island's beauty are delivered well. Caliban, in any case, does not play a very important part in this production. The low comic scenes take place rather in limbo; they have no space of their own.

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

The instrumental factor was those teams who started, recruiting early; very early often before school starts (the ethics behind such actions might be cause for further discussion at a later time). But the glaring characteristic of this year’s season will most to — certainly be recorded as “competitive.” As a result of the dedication and devotion displayed by the participants of “the game,” the referee has come to bear the burdens of frustration and questionable ability which the only more incapable ones would be in the running for selection this exercise would ease the tensions and put to rest ill feelings shared by several hundred students. When one considers the number bf players involved and that their peace of mind is at stake, it is rather a small sacrifice for one man to make.

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

Although frightening to many people, the problem is not yet out of hand. In oppression, unity? If Philadelphia is the “city of brotherly love,” then Buffalo must be a close second. From the general mood, it is clear that the people of the ghetto have a very sense of “familial strong nationalism.” The inhabitants are quick to stand by each others side, to help their neighbor in whatever way they can. The quality of education has subject been a of long controversy. It is generally believed that racial segregation has been a direct cause for any reduction in the teacher quality of the ghetto public schools. This point was illustrated by a middle-aged mother of two who said, “A lot of people are afraid to come into this neighborhood, especially qualified teachers. How does anyone expect oUr kids to do as well as others if we get slapped down from the start?” Amidst the blackened bricks and impersonal aura of this displaced “third world,” there is a quiet, subdued ghetto mystique. It seems the same old problems have yet to be solved, and ghetto inhabitants, as in the past, may not wait to have it done for them.

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

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

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

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

And so that they know that it's affecting them? It’s probably fair to say that few, maybe no such things have happened in'a while making the teacher’s statement above more than just an individual reflection on the recent Buffalo teacher’s strike. It Is well known that America and Buffalo are going through what might become an entire decade of apathy. But Buffalo, in its time, has experienced some of the most virulent labor and campus struggles in the country, and major events such as the strike shatter that apathy, creating active people who are angry and - t demanding change. Buffalo’e fifty thousand .school-age children, their parents and close relatives, their friends, the more than four thousand teachers and subs, the school and city adminsitrators, police called in at picket line complaints, and picket line passers-by, all had the three-week strike as part of their daily lives. They were forced to form opinions, take actions, or go into debt because of Buffalo’s first teacher’s strike in almost thirty years. The strike was precipitated by major disagreements on several issues. According to teachers, the important were; restoration of the points * “disasterous” cuts in curriculum programs; a school administration demand for the power to call “fiscal martial law” and suspend the contract if necessary; class sizes; and naturally, pay levels. According to the Board of Education, pay was the only issue that concerned the union: all other issues would be easily negotiated once pay was resolved. Many teachers were most emotional about the program cuts, demanding that restoration be pul in the contract, so that the Board could not cut the programs again as soon as the strike was over. Pay, of course, became an ever larger issue, as fines against the teachers mounted. Nevertheless, the teachers went back to work four days after the Board restored the programs, and the day after, issues were submitted to impartial arbitration. The major unresolved issue was pay. with the union having made the only significant moderation of its original wage position. Although teacher solidarity behind the strike -was quite high (an amazing dO percent stayed out all three weeks), the position of the union grew more and more grim as the strike continued. Public opinion, initially divided, and eyen leaning a slightly toward the union (according Courier-lxiircw survVy). was shifting against the teachers in the last week.

The purpose of the PERB hearings had been to gain public recognition for GSEU. Vice President for Student Affairs Richard Siggelkow. speaking on Soniit’s' behalf, said GSEU could not legally meet with Somit until the union had withdrawn from legal procedures with PERB.

For almost all of us, this was the first strike ever, and a lot of us didn’t think it was completely right, either.

Non-union employees are protected by laws against discriminatory but, according to the Bureau practices employment of Labor Relations, “regardless of the law, or administrative procedure, it takes a highly persistent worker to pursue his or her job rights through layers of management, commissions, boards, and courts. Harold Mero, Chairman of the Board of the stated, Academy of Certified Polygraphists licensed states require “Nineteen to twenty-one polygraphers to administer the tests, but New York is not one of them.” This leaves a worker with little protection against unscrupulous employers who might administer a test for any personal reason, not just to protect himself and his establishment trom irresponsible employees.

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

Wednesday, 6 October 1976 Faculty-Senate Firing policy to be reviewed A nine-member Faculty-Senate committee has been nominated to review the Division of Undergraduate Education's (DUE) policy on the criteria for academic dismissals. Acting DUE Dean Waiter Kunz, selected to be a member of the committee, stated that the DUE would cooperate with the Faculty-Senate “in any way possible.” He felt, however, that the basic structure of DUE academic dismissals procedure was not in need of significant changes. academic undergraduate all At present dismissals, except for Equal Opportunity Program students, are carried out by DUE advisors. At the Faculty-Senate meeting last week, introduced a Professor Nicholas Kazarinoff resolution calling for the formalization of existing academib standards, and greater faculty participation in the dismissal procedure. The resolution in part asked that probation be assigned to students whose overall grade point average falls below 2.0 for the first time, and that once a student has been placed on probation, he or she is expected during the next registered semester to raise his/her overall average to 2.0, or make a substantial reduction in the grade point deficit. Continuing, the resolution asked that the Dean of Undergraduate Studies form an Administrative Board, comprised mostly of faculty, to enforce probation regulations and to adopt any new procedures necessary for enforcement. In every instance the student will have the right to petition the Board for reinstatement after academic dismissal. If adopted, these regulations "will take effect at the end of the 1976-77 academic year. Kunz, Kazarinoff and Riechart were all asked if they saw any potential conflicts between this proposed panel and a standing DUE committee that reviews the criteria and procedures for dismissals. The three saw no problems arising and Kazarinoff predicted that any difficulties could be easily resolved among the concerned parties. Both Riechart and Kazarinoff said they had been unaware of any DUE committee existing prior to the recent proposals. Riechart said the main impetus for the resolution came from President Robert Ketter, who expressed concern that present dismissal procedures were “fuzzy and ambiguous.” Student feeling on the issue has yet to be tested.

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

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

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

It could also delay GSEU’s ability to negotiate a legally binding contract with SUNY on graduate student employees’ grievances. Kling expects Somit will hold the meeting and discuss the issues in good faith and act to redress the grievances. The list of grievances include: 1) access to university information; 2) tuition waivers; 3) delays in distribution of paychecks to graduate student employees; 4) wage problems which include tax complications and four-year assistance to graduate students; 5) oversized classes and the resultant increased workload for TA’s and GA’s that are a result of the cutting of 165 TA’s and GA’s that were cut last year; 6) health insurance and 7) GSEU recognition.

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

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

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

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

Among these, he believes, are some married students. %‘U- JteT TAK v£,HCWEy. N . ? /A/ 0FF 6A/VPUS yWS/A/fr J ? ft / rJtntowu J-7 ~UA'S i/fi/Cr 1U • •.

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

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

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

Interviews worthwhile To aid students in this process, over one thousand companies are invited to Buffalo to Each year prospective applicants. interview 250 conduct five thousand approximately companies to being interviewed, interviews. Prior placement students receive information about respective companies, and what jobs are available According to Drake, students have found the interviews worthwhile. Another of Drake’s duties is to contact companies on a quarterly basis to explore job openings. The Guidance office issues a weekly bulletin listing job openings in all fields. The placement center also is involved in researching information relevant to job hunting graduates. By next spring a package including salaries, number of people hired, and location of each company will be compiled. This package will state to state report, projecting job also openings through 1980. Schools most suited Graduate School and Pre-Law advisement are also the responsibility of the Placement center. Jerome Fink, in charge of Pre-Law advisement, explained that his job is to help students find schools for which they are most suited. Each year a survey is sent to graduates attending law school, asking for their grade-point average (GPA), LSAT scores and other pertinent data. Students are permitted to Jeaf through these surveys in order to get an idea minimum admission criteria required for different schools. Arthur W. Burke, director of Social Services and Graduate School advisement, indicated that he and Fink do not tell students where to apply, but only assist students in the application process and recommend appropriate programs of study.

At nineteen, you want to discover where you are going. At thirty, you try and determine just where you have been. The day I decided to enroll in the university’s evening division, I sensed I was embarking on a long and exciting voyage. What I didn’t realize was the many areas of uncharted turbulence which lay ahead. Or that there would be moments when it would be a pleasure cruise and still others when it would become a tour or duty. Arriving bright-eyed and breathless on campus to register, I came to the immediate realization that I didn’t know where Admissions , and Records was located. I stopped a young, blue-jeaned student (suddenly conscious that my once-though-of-as-chic polyester pantsuit stood out like the proverbial sore thumb among all the blue jeans and tee shirts) who pointed out a low-slung brick building to my right. Happily I trudged off but at A&R I wasjrrqniptly informed that I would have to be processed by the Division of Continuing Education. “Where's that?” 1 whispered anxiously. I wandered among the maze of buildings, as if in a Borges labyrinth, finally stuipbling into the right office. “Are you matriculated or non-matriculated,” snapped the receptionist. “Actually,” 1 gasped, “I’m lost.” Where to turn? Eventually, 1 was enrolled and registered for a history course, which 1 chose primarily because it was being taught in one of the buildings nearest Main Street and, hopefullu, I wouldn’t lose my waygoing to and from classes. At night! In the dark! The lectures in class and the long discussions afterwards over coffee were exhilarating. But the homework. It took sheer will power, and discipline to relearn- how to study (assuming it had been learned in the first place). Despite my efforts, my final grade was only a “C.” I.was disappointed (somehow 1 had thought the hallowed halls of higher learning would be as impressed with me as I was with them) but- 1 registered for another course the following semester. And this time 1 earned an “A." The next September' I decided to carry twelve credit hours which meant making some financial arrangements. Once again.

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

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

My roommate went in to pick up his’I.D. and at the same time paid my ten dollars. Upon asking for my I.D. he was told it was in Ellicott. Fine! So I went to pick up my l.D. and I was told it was at Main Street. “We’re sorry to inconvenience you, it will be here tomorrow, and when it arrives we will give you a call.” Next day comes around and 1 get no phone call. Once again I go to their office at Richmond Quad and ask for my I.D. It’s there, but it’s not lamenated. I freak out! So, Stuart Bison tries to help me out,. He apologizes for the inconvenience and tells me that the I.D. lines are closed until the following Monday. He told me I should come down then to pick it up. Monday comes, and once again 1 proceed to Richmond Quad. 1 walk in and ask for my l.D. card. They go the the cigar box where they’re kept and there it is, but it’s not lamenated (keep in mind, my card waS not the only one there). I keep my cool.

The president, Howie Shapiro was the only one' there. So, he reaches into the magic cigar box and there it is along with the others, unlamenated. I blew up: this was too much for my head to handle. Howie tells me that he will take care of it right away and have it lamenated in an hour. Don’t lose all faith in this organization, there is at least one decent person that keeps his word.

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

I have a few questions of my own to ask: 1: When the five course level is reinstated, which textbook company will be the first to lower its prices so that the costs of textbooks don’t rise beyond students’ reach? 2: Nobody has produced any evidence to showthat a minimum amount of faculty contact is necessary for a good education. Its been saicj, again and again that not all learning takes place in the classroom! Students today are involved in all sorts of extracurricular activities, most of which are community-oriented and educational. We know that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, but if the five course load was adopted, many students would be, forced to cut down on their social activities for additional study'time. 3: From talking to people I got the impression that before 1968 there was in addition to the five course load, a very restrictive atmosphere at U.B. Students were forced to live in the dorms, keep curfew' hours, and males had to wear shirts and ties to class! Girls were not allowed in boys’ dorms and vice versa. These restrictions, along with the five course load, Were swept away ip the wave of student protest. This wave died after Kent State and it seems to me that since there hasn’t been one serious incident of student violence in six years, the Adminstration finds it safe to ignore student needs. Students, it is time to march on Hayes Hall and demand continuation of the four course load! BUT IF I WERE PRESIPEKT * — Martin Celnick Non-sexist plea right To the Editors. I would like to respond to Mr. Finklestein letter in Mondays The Spectrum, regarding the Oui Magazine advertisement. • , ■ to publish a newspaper with all First Rights intact, it is still of utmost Amendment importance that they use .discretion and taste ‘in selecting their material for publication. Mr. Finklestein suggests that, if Hugh Hefner wants to fund The Spectrum, he ought to be allowed. I strongly disagree. A philosophy based on an indiscriminate acceptance of all funds can lead to a paper funded and controlled by parties far more ’ . Mr. Finklestein correctly assesses the 'great financial problems facing student-run newspapers and studnet associations. More and more, the hardworking individuals who work within these important organizations are called on to make sacrifices to bring in funds, with due respect to those problems, I still submit that the solution offered by Mr. Finklestein, and The Spectrum, by publishing the Oui ad, is not the correct outlook. Editors of student, newspaper have a duty and responsibility that far exceeds the editors and publishers of commercial publications. Being funded by students, from mandatory activity fee funds, the newspapers must be free of material which is offensive or unnecesserily sexist or discriminatory. Though the editors have, of course, a'constitutional offensive than Oui. Your editorial policy statement denies your intent to publish discriminatory material. I would hope, in respect to all people, you choose material that is also non-sexist. The sign of a great editorial staff is one which can publish a high quality, diverse paper, free of unnecessarily offensive dictum. Such a publication would be worthy of all our support and is deserving of a higher level of funding bySA. • , Dun D Kohane Reinstate Social Science College To the Editor: Smash the fascist editors To the Editors.

Also, they’re having a sale on white socks at Two-Guys this weekend. Dan McKloud During the recent elections for student officers, a referendum to solicit student opinion on the importance of Social Science College was held. The results, far from being inconclusive, showed that apporximately 85% of those students who had any opinion at all on this matter cast their vote in support of the reinstatement of Social Science College. As former student members of the college, we feel that this vote is a clear indication of students desire for alternative, radical, and relevant courses to supplement the otherwise stale offerings of the University departments. We, as students, deplore the Administration’s decision on the fate of Social Science College and are also concerned that this issue be kept alive. We feel that the procedure in which the college was eliminated was totally undemocratic and politically motivated. Ketter’s acceptance of the, chartering committee’s minority report is a clear indication of the administrations intentions to stifle the quality of progressive education and the democratic process which is its base. Preaching of Powell To the Editor. Much controversy in sociology centers around the question of the necessity for sociology to be relevant to the concerns of people in everyday life. It is absolutely necessary that sociologists maintain a position of neutrality in their work. Remember, sociology is a science, and science deals with facts — with what is, and not with what one thinks ought to be. In his teaching of sociology, I suggest that Mr. Powell realize his lectures should not become sermons, preaching his own political convictions. This does not mean that Mr. Powell should detach himself from activity and personal commitment to controversial issues of today, in fact, such involvement can only stimulate sociological interest and insight. But when it comes to the teaching of basic sociology, all personal convictions must become only a part of the wh >le realm of the science of sociology, where students learn all the different arguments of, for example, faults in the American political system, or problems of social control, and then use these basics to develop their own convictions, not merely those of an over-influential From its conception, the history of Social Science College has been one of the struggle of concerned students in unity to democratically, through their collective input, control the direction of their education. The college qualitative gain that was a direct result of the efforts of the united university community. The administrations reaction to this advance, the revocation of Social Science College’s charter, negates not only the college itself, but. also further jeopardizes academic freedom and student participation in deciding university policy." The issue as it now stands is not dead. Since the removal of Social Science College the cutting edge of the administration has been brought closer to all progressively minded sectors of the university; witness the harassment of Dr. Ed Powell and the firing of progressive instructors Grabner and Goodenow. (Gene Grabner himself was a former faculty, member of Social Science College.) This blatant attempt at thought control on this campus absolutely necessitates an organized struggle to protect our civil and academic rights. The referendum has concretely established a constituency of student support of Social Science College. If you are a part of this constituency you must realize that the reinstatement of the college involves an organized and unified struggle. Your convictions as expressed by your vote has strengthened our commitment to keep up the struggle. An information table will be set up in Norton beginning Tuesday, Oct. 5, to help organize our fight. Struggle involves both unity and work, and it is time, now, to go to work. professor. -Ken Keast Committee to William C Docze Jr. Reinstate Social Science College Monday, 4 October 1976 .

However, the view from the tracks rekindled in me a certain ambivalence. Perhaps it’s as much what backyards have come to symbolize ttTme as anything by Walter Simpson walking with a ftiend The other day, I along the railroad tracks. When you walk the tracks in Buffalo, you see the city but through different eyes. It’s simply undeniable: the city looks different from the tracks. You see places you didn’t know existed. You also see fimiliar places in a new light. Backyards are a case in point. From the vantage point of the railroad grading, backyards are a curious sight to see. They are all lined up and open to view. Boundaries are delineated by fences which show graphically how the earth hav been carved up and parcelled out to individuals. Each plot is private. Each plot is the object of attachment and personal concern for some family. What lies beyond is — ' else. Let me,explain. When I was 18, I worked as a lifeguard at a summer camp for Boy Scouts. My boss, the director of the waterfront, was regarded by me and everyone else at the camp as unusual. His appearance, as well as his attitudes and way of life, flew in the face of the authoritarianism and latent militarism of the Boy Scout concept. Bob was the first “hippie” any of us had ever met. The camp was located in the mountains and the evenings were especially peaceful. After finishing our someone else’s business. work for the day, Bob and I would sit by the shore As we walked, we saw few people. In the middle of the lake and talk.

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

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

There would be prizes for the winner if these suggestions ever became realities. Also, volleyball coach Peter Weinreich plans to hold free volleyball clinics before each home game to attract’spectators The big problem, Muto realized, was that many students had the wrong attitude about Buffalo-sports that our teams aren’t wotth watching simply because they are from Buffalo and therefore couldn’t be good. Last year, Buffalo produced many fine athletes, including the nation’s leading rebounder in basketball and the nation s leading batter, and both were a pleasure to watch. I know that I’d rather be watching the Bulls than worrying about how to integrate an arctangent, or something like that. For some reason, all our teams seem to play better at home, and all ot them play exciting games. Our teams definitely are worth watching. Muto hoped that with The Spectrum's and Bullpen's help, attendance will increase. 1 certainly hope he’s right.

John White then singled sharply to right field moving Groh to second, setting the stage tor a series of almost comical errors. Jim Wojcik hit a bouncer to shortstop where Glen Shiebler hobbled, it and was unable to make a play. This loaded the bases for John Pederson who singled in a run. With the bases still loaded, Mike Dixon hit a routine fly ball to left fielder Gary Pieper who dropped it for a two base error, allowing two runs to score. After Phil Ganci walked, Ed Durkin singled bringing Dixon and Ganci home. Nine men came to the plate in that inning as the Bulls went ahead by a score of 7 to 4. The Bulls added one more run in the fifth jnning, but it was not needed as they won by a score of 8-6.

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

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

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

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

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

Turning to current politics, Macdonald said Democrats have always been a diverse group favoring the underprivileged while the Republicans, and especially President Ford, have catered to the social elite. Macdonald did not have any compliments for this year’s presidential candidates. “Tm a philosophical anarchist,” he said. “Ford is a real anarchisthe just doesn’t do anything about it.” “Carter is a simple-minded Southern Baptist,” he continued. “Why did he have to level with Playboy- about lusting after a woman?” Dumb capitalists He also commented on American businessmen, particularly those he interviewed during the Great Depression of the thirties. “They didn’t have anything up here at all,” he said, indicating his head, “and they had not the slightest idea how to, talk. None of them had any idea of what to do to save capitalism.” “Money and sex are the most interesting human subjects,” he continued. After the end of World War II Americans seemed to develop a tendency to divulge their sexual lives to each other. “But if I asked them how much money they made they looked at me as if 1 was , crazy.” “One confession of mine is that I’ve always been a money writer,” said Macdonald. He noted that he has never “sold out,” but with a laugh added, “If you can sell out you damn well should.” He also said that he cannot force himself to sit down and write an entire book, so all of his books have been collections of'his more memorable articles despite his compalints that “collections never sell.” program in 1971. Women’s Studies was designed and proposed as a unit of the Collegiate system, permitting it, as an academic unit, to offer courses for elective credit, but not a major or degree. The proposal made to the University said that women “have Keen subjected to an educational system which has reinforced the stereotypic images of women as passive, dependent, unintellec'tual and unable 'to analyze and understand our own position in society . . The lack of this knowledge reinforces our own sense of inferiority and is used to justify our stereotypes.. .

Macdonald also spoke about higher education, expalining, “Lots of professors are removed from the big world.” There should be a break of at least five years following high school during which the individual can decide if he wants to attend college, he said. “Only those who want v to learn would come back.” Macdonald finished up by mentioning some of h is personal to you. not. the other way guidelines. “Always make peopl according to Macdonald.~is around.” he said.

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

Regan, who drew up the County budget for 1977, recently confronted the library system with plans drastic cutbacks. Ailing resources have already forced branches to close, and ninety-eight full time employees along with nearly all part-time employees have had the books closed on them as far as their jobs are concerned.

Destruction of library A question period directed to Regan and the. legislators reduced the issue into its simplest terms money and politics. The County Executive was under fire for his budget. Pebple pleaded that he give libraries more consideration, that he re-examine the budget. One member of the legislature, Susan Lubick, in what appeared to be a “grudge match” with Regan, attacked his budget and proposed that they “look at — who last “Save the Library Committee,” sees the library system as ‘The foundation of our civilization'.’SAnzulternative non-mandated programs.” budget submitted by Regan for year, Regan bad man fiscal 1977 the Regan became the bad man for recommended only $4.9 million his adamant stand saying; “My for the library system. budget called for fifteen per cent were to receive the libraries If across the board for all of cutbacks the this amount, forty-six, programs in the non-mandated would shut branches fifty-two just the library not county, down.

The “Save the Committee,” boasting Library nearly 1000 members, promised not to quit, and was recruiting members before and after the, meeting. “We’re not trying to shout at the legislators in this meeting just show them wlhat we want,” Woodrich said.''Tf we want to get mad, we can get mad ifi the voting booth later.” - A COLLEGE RING.

It’s not that he reminds me of an Oriental Joe McCarthy, or even the fact that he claims to know what direction God wants the world to go. Hell, Richard Nixon and George Allen Wfclieve they know. No, it’s nothing like that. I have never been one to criticize a belief, although I have differed in opinion with many in my twenty-one years. It’s something intangible maybe, but definitely something about him that scares me. I must admit, I was slightly awed by the whole spectacle, the “God Bless America” festival that took place on September 18. Fifty thousand noisy people near - the Washington Monument, bands, playing patriotic John Phillip Sousa-type marches, .thousands of - balloons, and a hundred thousand dollars worth of fireworks were certainly enough to excite even Calvin Coolidge. As 1 walked through the crowd, I recalled memories of wandering through throngs of people at outdoor rock concerts, just people’s enjoying themselves. different scrutinizing styles of For the message But this crowd was different. Much, much different. These people weren’t here for the music, the balloons, or the fireworks. No matter what you may have heard, these people were here for the message, the inspirational words t6 grasp anything or anybody that offers even a flicker of light. That fact is what “creates” a Charlie Manson, a Maharaj Ji, a Richard Nixon, a Rev. Moon. . Sea of apathy Believe me. I’m not trying to criticize people for who or what they believe in. It is no more my right to attempt to downgrade someone’s beliefs as it is for someone to scoff at mine. As a famous statesman once said, I may disagree with what someone says, but I’ll always defend their right to say it. On the contrary, I am simply trying to point out that America is floating in a sea of apathy, and some of the crew is jumping ship. everyone not Certainly attending the rally was a “Moonie.” Some went because it was an event. Others went because there was nothing better to do on Saturday night. A few wenf to , of hope that Rev. Moon offered. And it may sound funny, but, I think that is what disturbed me most about the spectacle. the ' consider Stop and situation. It was more than simply a religious revival. It was an actual and accurate commentary on life, of on the lives especially underpriveleged Americans. The crowd was overwhelmingly black, spotted with pockets of Puerto Ricans, Orientals and whites. Even though a substantial majority of the crowd consisted of minority groups, they failed to grasp the irony in Rev. Moon’s speech. thousands of Here are oppressed people, victims of American racism and capitalism, cheering a man proposing the exact continuation of the system that keeps those people on the bottom in the first place. He calls America the light for the world, “God’s chosen few,” if you will, Satan equates and with Communism. One could almost see John Foster Dulles cheering as Moon called for America to rise and defeat Communism and unite the cultures and; pepple of all nations. 1 guess the next logical step is to build millions, of to McDonald’s Restaurants “spread the word."

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

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

We cite the two quotations above as sources of representation to the same extent as the party justification for raising this question: the danger of education as represented by the participating law firm. confirmation of the status quo, and the necessity of honest education. (d) The proposal provides coverage that is The danger of education is used as a weapon, for a purpose outside totally inadequate to meet student needs.

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

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

What Dorothy Sayes and A.A. Milne wrote over there was being brought over here by the likes of S.S. Van Dine. Dashiell Nammett's caustic review in 1929 of the latter's The Benson Murder Case ("written in the little-did-he-realize style") seems to mark a special moment of breakage and departure, a sign that the scenes and pressures of urban life in the United States increasingly invaded the stuff of literature.

And all of this intrudes in spite of RiOrdan's apparent fashionable sensivitiy to women. Riordan's hipness makes the book's shoddy treatment of women puzzling, but his hipness is the very quality which destroys another aspect of classic hardboiled fiction: the simplicity, brevity, and precision of its language. While Phillip Marlowe, for lives in the self-created atmosphere of his own beautiful way- of saying things, in Rite of Expiation what would be in Chandler a stylistically created sense of compassionate detachment is horribly mutilated in translation.

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

Opening the evening's festivities was Black Smoke, an eight-piece combo (lead singer, guitarist, bass guitarist, keyboard player, drummer and three horn players), whose repertoire ranged from the usual thrumping-bass-line funk all the way down to a most mournful love almost song sung by their very young-looking lead singer. teenagers in enough to wrangle tears from the multitude of screaming the .arena. — Cherry Jam After a 45 minute set and a-20-minute wait, five funky white boys who call themselves "Wild Cherry" came on the stage. Though their music was not - strictly soul or funk-oriented (for a group -with a high riding sirtgle called "Play that Funky Music," they played an amazing array of heavy rock tunes, too. The crowd enjoyed their set and was even more appreciative of their best number, which amounted to a rock V roll jam extravaganza. With two guitars riffing away, the bass and drumc cooking up a storm and a beautiful synthesizer, the number was "Progressive" rock at its best. Definitely one of the more satisfying jams I have ever watched. After doing their current Smash hit (."Hey, hold=up, didn't we forget to play something for you?"), "Play Music," the five white boys, With their Doobie Brothers', White Band sound intact, left the stage amidst a resounding Average applause from an appreciative crowd. wave of Two-thirds of the acts had performed, two-thirds of the acts had excelled, and we hadn’t even come to the Isley Brothers yet.

Parissi was in the hospital with ulcers. Some of the members of the band came to visit him and asked, "Well, Bob, what are we going to call the group?" The ulcer patient became incensed, picked up a box of cough drops and flung them against the door, saying, "I don't care if we call the group Wild Cherry, I just want to get the hell out of this place and play." Cherry plays to no Special classes. Their music knows no specific boundary. The group's mode of "electrified Funk" may change with the times, warns Parissi. But as it now stands, the group will play that funky music right. Before I left him, Bob Parissi gave me the lyrics to "Play That Funky Music's" sequel, called "The Honky's Got Soul."

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

With two surprising exceptions, all of the actors are really first-rate. In the last two acts, when ensemble scenes are replaced by confrontations between individuals, hence providing more opportunity for- good performances to assert themselves, the actors rescue the production. The two poor performances are, ironically, from the two actors one might have expected, at the start of the season, to be the best: Maggie Smith as Masha and William Nutt as Doctor Chebutykin.

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

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

That happens in this instance and mars what might otherwise have been, controlled, properly thoroughly a satisfactory performance fay Ms. Maraden (as it does Amelia Hall's Anfisa). In the production as a whole, it results in an unfortunate alternation between farce and pathos; Chekhov should be played in the middle ground between these extremes, Checkhov is a’very great dramatist and The Three Sisters is his greatest play. But his drama is not as tough as Shakespeare's; it cannot sustain almost infinite interpretations and retain its essence. It can be destroyed by an insensitive production. If a director does not establish the right tone, then the subtle blend of comedy, melancholy, grasping, insensitive wife and pathos, of delusion, nihilism, and hope, will disintegrate. The ideals of Chekhov's characters, unlike those of Shakespeare's men and women, are not embodied in their lives or articulated in their actions. They remain the expression of something which can never be achieved, and they are always at odds with events. The beauty and sadness of The Three Sisters lie in the way the characters' hopes never manage to intersect, so that they live side by side, unable to stop hoping and unable to help one another. The discrepancy between facts and ideals has comic possibilities, but those possibilities must be scrupulously controlled if what is most important about the play is not to be lost. It is to the credit of the Stratford Festival players that, with no apparent direction, they have succeeded in preserving much of the play's beauty despite a disastrous beginning. and she handles it very effectively. Marti Maraden, on the other hand, has the demanding role of Irina, the youngest of the sisters, and she is not quite adequate to it. She is energetic and cheerful in the first Act, but her big scene in Act III, where Irina feels her life disintegrating, remains unconvincing. One of the many bad consequences of the complete absense of pacing in this - Artful Dodger, Honor Among Thieves (Columbia) It seems somewhat absurd that this album should even be reviewed for a college-aged readership as Honor Among Thieves will find little if and market on this or any campus. Different bands aim for different age groups, and (hopefully) Artful Dodger is not aiming for us. You may want, to send this home to your kid (e.g. high school-aged) brother, where it will melt right into his collection of Kiss, Bay City Rollers, Slade Jremember them?J, and whomever else your hometown top-40 D.J. has brainwashed him into idolizing. He may be a little upset, however, that not every song jumps at him with the fast-paced banality of an incompetent drummer and unimaginative but energetic guitarists. Two selections, "Scream" (ironically enough) and "Dandelion", are included to showcase the band in a more peaceful mode. The latter contains some nice piano work, but alas, the band had to bring in an extra (compentent) musician (Eric Troyer) for it. These two cuts, along with “Good Fun", are the best work on the effort, and this is saying very little. Note: I use the term “effort" very loosely. The psychology behind the rest of the "songs" (again a less-than-accurate description) seems to be, "Let's beat these numbers to death on vinyl and we'll tell the little monsters that we're great and they'll love us." I just heard on of these songs On WGRQ, if that tells you anything about where this album is destined to find an audience. If you secretly long for your early-teens and high school dances, you can turn out the lights, give this record a work-out, and imagine having that doll (guy or girl) who got voted "most popular" right where you always wanted him/her; in the darkest corner of the gym. Otherwise, I suggest that you dodge this disk. -Ted Vanderlaan Eumir Deodato.Very Together (MCA) I was always under the presumption that jazz and disco were two different types of music. Seeing the super trend -of every artist going disco, jazz has been hardest hit by the thing it needs the least the plaguing Disco Beat. Which brings me to "The Jazz Artist Most Likely to Go Disco:" Eumir Deodato. The Brazilian may be remembered for doing some arranging for artists such as Stanley Turrentine, before he decided to cut it on his own. When Deodato first hit, he hit big in both rock and jazz. He had a smash single with his seriocomic version of 2001" and followed it with a version of "Rhaphsody In Blue," arraged in a similar vein.

Of course, in the true model of the Law of Disco, the singers tout out the words "Star Trek" before the main theme, which is done on a high-pitched moog synthesizer to the Disco Beat.

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

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

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

But if keeping Cooder out pf the mainstream is essential then to producing gems like Chicken Skin Music circle to the small be kept hopefully his fans will they currently fill.

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

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

In a wholly different context than the one this letter will make its modest contribution to the editor was accused of yellow journalism. He responded not by confronting issues raised in the 1 “objectionable” Record Co-op letter, but by baiting people who would dare question his integrity. Similarly, in publicizing the activities of Ed Powell re: overt support for a Socialist platform and slate, the editor gives front page access to a fairly reactionary viewpoint, coupled with the same in the form of a guest opinion. Now in and of themselves, these articles are fairly harmless. They put forth reactionary points of view, true.

It is the editors subliminal suggestion that education and politics should not and are not merged, which rankles. But what is the matter is the attempt to make Ed Powell’s support of a “peaceful and legal” non-militant Old Leftie socialist party, into an issue that smacks of, amongst other things, red baits to come by blowhard editors.

What's the matter, Kortnan? Is the cutting off of funds for New World Orchestra, the reprisals against the Colleges, the disgustingly low level of political awareness at this campus, not enough material. That level of awareness is, incidentally, your fault due precisely to the type of politics you select or edit of mass distribution. It is not only your fault. But you are representative. In my classes, I suggest that the electoral process is a all parties have the same one class phenomenon thing to offer; irresponsibility and imposition of their ideologies.

I further suggest that the only solution to Amerikan political mythologies is social revolution. That, according to your editorial logic makes my sentiments eminently more newsworthy than Powell’s. Every professor/grad asst, has such sentiments which we express in class. We should demand equal time. But then, of course, your editorship would not be based on selective fabrication of issues, and potential baiting of socialists. It would be based on a commitment to point out the ACTUAL LEVEL OF POLITICS at this University. In short, I find nothing unrepresentative in Powell’s actions either in form or in content.

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

Re: the “commentary article” on WBUF radio by Harold Goldberg published in The Spectrum, September 24th, 1976 “Trouble in Radioland.” Mr. Goldberg’s article contains several — inaccuracies, many false conclusions, and shows absolutely no discernible knowledge about even the business of broadcasting. The conclusions drawn are not supported by the National Enquirer style “journalism attempted earlier in the same “article.” We at BUF would not even comment on the validity of many of the “facts depicted in Mr. Goldberg’s article as we feel that to do so would give the “article” a respect and a credence it does not merit.

Well these people are the ones who are really responsible for the lack of interesting items in The Spectrum, and the first thing they should do to help is tell us about that they know of. If somebody is about to break a beer guzzling record in the Rat, make it known so The Spectrum can get a photographer on the, scene before the guy passes out. All newspapers rely on hot tips from outsiders for part of their stories. But the best thing anyone can do to fill this news void on campus is make news. Go out and murder somebody. Steal a copying machine. Assault Dr. Somit. Blockade all University entrances. Now that’s news. These are “recent events.” (The third definition of “news” supplied by Webster’s.) They provide “new information.” Best of all, students will get to read about these items in The Spectrum and they will all say, “See all the exciting things that happen at Buffalo? Gee, Spectrum sure finds interesting things to write about.” If one student out there would just get ptomaine poisoning from food service food, not only would he create news, but he would bring on all sorts of discussion and studies that would all qualify as other news. Food Service would be investigated, the student’s coverage under the new medical health plan would be examined, and studies of Buffalo food service versus food services at other colleges would be undertaken. All this for one tiny case of ptomaine. News, thats what we need. Write a controversial Letter to the Editor. Expose graft in the Removable Feriodontics Department. Anything; just make news because we all need some. as serious problem — Suffice to say that 90% of “Trouble in Radioland” is either deliberately misleading or totally false. Anyone who even remotely comprehends the mechanics of radio broadcasting can clearly see that Mr. Goldberg doesn’t know a microphone from a sales contract. If any of your readers would like to know what BUF, let alone a radio station, is really like, we invite them ,to call us or stop in. We can assure you that what they will discover in no way resembles anything in Harold Goldberg’s “article.” Which brings up the point where did Harold Goldberg unearth the “facts” that seem to disagree with his own conclusion?; We Suspect the “answer” is that there are no facts involved at all, but rather — attitudes. Whatever occurs here at BUF on a personal basis is absolutely no one’s concern or interest. Even if Harold’s inaccuracies were of public interest or concern, we would have liked to have seen such “incidents” written about with at least some sense of excitement or intrique as People or the National Enquirer would have done. If anything “exciting” or “intriguing” does we promise you that we will give Harold an exclusive. In the meantime, if any of your readers can really figure out what’s happening here we pay 20 dollars for each “news tip” at BUF used tb improve our ratings and our proud level of — paranoia.

This is smaller, and year’s without some key players from last year, notably spiker Joanne Wroblewski and setter Shelley Kulp, but according to Weinreich, a crop of talented rookies and enthusiastic returnees will more than make up for any deficit. “This is the most highly spirited group I’ve ever worked with,” he tomorrow at squad The new and the old Weinreich has three other Dana freshmen this year Chadwick, Wanda Mesmer and Amy Ostrir.

Also returning from last year’s three-year veteran team are Marylin Dellwardt, Barb Fislar, Hilary Schlesinger, Sue Trabert and Jan Weber. Weinreich called Dellwardt the most experienced player on the team, and praised her knowledge of the game. Fislar will be counted on for her hitting and blocking, while Schlesinger will function as a quick hit specialist. Trabert is an excellent — declared. This year, Weinreich decided to have only twelve women on the roster instead of the sixteen he carried last year. The reason for the reduction was twofold. .For one thing, Weinreich wanted to work with a smaller group so that he could give more attention to each player. “1 want to have a small group of highly talented athletes” he said. The players themselves were pleased with this. The second reason is that the University insurance policy allows Weinreich to take only twelve players on road trips. summer, Weinreich This noticed Mary Evanco of Bennett High School and was so impressed by her that he recruited her and convinced Her to try out for the team.

Several students have voiced their objections to Powell’s blatant political support of the Socialist Workers’ Party and the appearance of The Millitant, the party’s newspaper, at the front desk of the lecture hall. Some students even complained that the assigned reading (Brave New World by Aldous Huxley) does not seem to follow the lecture material.

The pair quizzed 900 freshmen students at a large public school in a small town where most students live in university housing. They found that overall, co-ed dorms relaxed, more pleasant, are friendly, enjoyable and that the promotes greater personal growth than single sex living arrangements. They discovered men who opt for co-ed living have higher academic and career goals, who like to drink beer and who think 6f themselves as easy going and “on top of the world.” Women in co-ed housing, however, were found to be quite different than their female classmates stuck in women-only dorms. Women who lived under the same roof as men had higher atmosphere , BFT strike ends, but issues await decisions Buffalo teachers returned to. school in good faith on Monday, leaving the contract issues for which they struck in the hands of a three-man arbitration committee. This binding arbitration was proposed by the state Public Employment Relations Board (PERB) last Sunday after mediators were unable to bring the teachers and the Buffalo Board of Education to an agreement that would have ended the 20-day strike. The proposal was approved by the Board last Sunday night by a vote of 7-2. The Buffalo Teachers Federation (BTF) membership meeting at Shea’s Buffalo Theater at the same time, approving it overwhelmingly, 1581-251. The arbitration solution leaves the strike issue unresolved until the end qi next month when the panel must present its decision. This bitterness on both sides. SeveraNiundred teachers left their meeting without voting on the arbitrationcSbme of those who remained accused the BTF leadership of “selling them down the river.” Matt A. Gajewski and Samuel A.

Four issues The provisions of the new two-year contract that had already been agreed to by both parties will take immediate effect. It will be the responsibility of the arbitration panel to settle the four remaining unresolved issues. The first of the four issues is salary, the Board has only offered an increase based on a teachers’ graduate hours and experience in the first year and a four percent across the board increase in the second year. The BTF demanded, a six percent increase effective February 1 for the first year and increments plus a five percent across the board raise in. the second year. The other areas for arbitration are Major Medical Insurance, Supplemental Benefit Fund and program restoration. The board is willing to sign a letter of intent to guarantee that programs and teaching positions cut for lack of funds last June will be restored this year only. BTF wants the positions guaranteed in its contract for at least two years.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Record the names of those candidates endorsed on record co-qp issues, as alleged by Mr. David K. Brownstein. Of codrse, Brownstein disregards the validity of our off hand, as any political hack will, wheli protecting his own vested interests. It seems that it hasn’t yet reached Mr. Brownstein’s loud butjflim percejjypns, that the issue of providing freer student semceby the record co-op is one of the (if not the ) primary and volitile issues facing our student body. Contrary to Mr. Brownstein’s flippant remarks, it was stated clearly in our letter of Wed., Sept, 22nd, to the editors of The Spectrum that these endorsements were awarded on the basis of our collective confidence in those candidates’ aggressive stands on the important record co-op issues. (You probably are aware that the co-op has been under heavy pressure to cut back, and even suspend, its Co-operative indeed posted endorsements, services.) . • It should be .noted that our clear confidence in those candidates stems from- our long association with theSASU candidate that we endorsed. He is an active, outspoken, and reliable co-op member.

Record Co-op Editor's note: This is the clarification you feel is so urgently needed. The Co-ops initial letter explaining its endorsement of three candidates was removed from last Friday’s issue because the arrangement agreed to by Co-op representatives and myself was unacceptable to Bill Finkelstein. He had every right to object to The Spectrum printing the Co-op's letter of explanation without the names of the endorsed candidates, in the absence of any reply from Mr. Brownstein. On the condition that he did bring in a letter that evening. it was further agreed that the ■ names of the endorsed candidates would be reinserted into the Co-op’s , letter, and that both would appear Friday, the last day of the election. Again, and rightfully so, Mr. Finkelstein said this would benefit Mr. Brownstein.

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

Gilbert Spectrurh Staff Writer In an appearance last Friday at the Law School here, former Watergate prosecutor Leon Jaworski - discussed his actions as Special Prosecutor during a lecture and lengthy question and answer period. Starting a half hour late, Jaworski spoke briefly on his difficult position in deciding who to prosecute and how, whether to recommend indictment of former President Richard Nixon, and on the of delicacy possible on the “culpability” part of a sitting president. Regarding his decision not to recommend indictment of Nixon, You're invited! Wine and Cheese Party for Sociology Faculty and Undergrad students Sponsored by The Undergraduate Sociology Assoc. — Friday, Oct. 1 at 3:30 rm 47 Bldg. 4224 Ridge Lea Regarding Ford’s pardon, said he had studies the Jaworski issue “long and hard,” and ha’d determined, on the _basis of a recent federal court case, that the pardon was legally - unassailable. That decision, he declared, stated that if limitations are to be put on a pardon, they must be found in the Constitution. “And, of course, there is no such thing to be found there.” A,questioner then asked if that meant a president could pardon himself. Jaworski called that situation a special case, saying that “the courts would smell something rotten about that fish.” The crowd responded with laughter. despite evidence in his possession revealing the ex-President’s likely involvement, Jaworski cited two mam reasons First was the delicacy of a Grand Jury indictment, handed down before the House of Representatives had concluded impeachment proceedings. Jaworski feared that the Supreme Court would rule that the impeachment process should take precedence, thus delaying, for quite some time, much of the inquiry into Watergate, and specifically into the ex-President’s involvement. Split denied Second and perhaps more Jaworski's belief was important that President Nixon would not resign if indicted. This, he thought, “would tear the country apart” and “should be avoided at all costs.” In a related topic, Jawprski denied any split between himself decisions and ■ his staff on concerning prosecution His comments on this subject were perhaps prompted by a New York Times review of his recent book in whicli the reviewer saw the chief failing of the press during the Watergate as not having seized up on the split between Jaworski ahd his staff as a topic worth reporting. The New York Times either directly through the courts, or by indicting Nixon regardless. The other concerned the numerous social issues raised by Watergate and related scandals. reviewer saw it as a''result of Jaworski’s passive, unenthusfastic attitude toward full prosecution of Nixon and other high-level officials. Jaworski denied this, saying that although there were significant policy disagreements, in the end there was little disharmony, and that there was always a great deal of respect between the prosecutor and his staff. At this point, Jaworski opened the floor to questions, many of which" concerned technical : legal aspects of Watergate. Two other recurring themes were Jaworski’s refusal to challenge President Gerald Ford’s pardon of Nixon, Crimes against humanity .One particularly emotional questioner asked, if it .was true that Jaworski had been a lawyer at the Nuremberg trials. When answered yes, she went on to talk of the children of America and her own children, to. whom she this could not explain “contradictions” The accused at tried and were Nuremberg sentenced, often to death, for crimes against humanity. Nixon, however, - who illegally directed the .bombing of Cambodia, resulting in thousands of innocent deaths, has gotten off with a pardon, before even being tried. Jaworski declined to “speak on that issue,” saying “I really don’t see the comparison.” Concerning other areas of Watergate, Jaworksi was asked his opinion as to why President Nixon did not destroy the tapes the moment their existence became known. Jaworski answered in two parts. First, he said,'had NixOn “used all the rationales,” declaring that the contained tapes confidential utterances by high government officials, and even heads of state, and that a grave threat to national security was posed, he could have destroyed the tapes, and survived the torrent of criticism that would descend upon him. Next, Jaworski declared that Nixon failed to do so “because he believed his claim of Executive Privilege would hold.” Finally perceiving that it would not. Nixon could no longer avert the catastrophe that would end in forced resignation. Broadening the discussion, Jaworski was asked if the minimal fines and sentences received by the' top Watergate conspirators wasn’t indicative of a system that provided, primarily, “justice for the rich.” Jaworski declared that “America has the finest judicial system in the world,” going on to explain that identical trials, tried on the East and West coasts, could very well reach opposite verdicts. Continuing, he stated that “this is that be something cannot changed,” and that “slight” inequalities must always occur. Wednesday, 29 September 1976 . The Spectrum . Page nine �It Sounds Incredible BUT EVELYN WOOD GRADUATES CAN READ JAWS IN 41 MINUTES At That Speed, The 309 Pages Come Across With More Impact Than The Movie. In Living Blood, You Might Say. You can do it, too. So far almost 1,000,000 people have done it. People who have different jobs, different IQ’s, different interests, different educations have completed the course. Our graduates are people from all walks of life. These people have all taken a course developed by Evelyn Wood, a- prominent educator. Practically all of them at least tripled their reading speed with equal or better comprehension. Most have increased it even more. Think for a moment what that means. All of them—even the slowest—now read an average novel in less than two hours. They read an entire issue of Time or Newsweek in 35 minutes. They don’t skip or skim. They read every word. They use no machines. Instead, they let the material they’re reading determine how fast they read. And mark this well: they actually understand more, remember more, and enjoy more than when they read slowly. That’s right! They understand more. They remember more. They enjoy more. You can do the same thing—the place to learn more about it is at a free speed reading lesson. This is the same course President Kennedy had his Joint Chiefs of Staff take. The same one Senators and Congressmen have taken. Come to a free Speed Reading Lesson and find out. It is free to you and you will leave with a better understanding of why it works. Plan to attend a free Speed Reading Lesson and learn that it is possible to read 3-4-5 times faster, with better comprehension.

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

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

Wines age, people mellow and now Buffalo’s baseball team is finally taking shape. It finally happened when the Bulls returned from the Interstate Classic in Albany this weekend with a third place finish out of twelve qualifiers. The Bulls wiH get a chance to display their new found talent against Cortland tomorrow and again against Siena College in a doubleheader on Saturday at Peelle Field. Coach Bill Monkarsh is looking forward to these games in an effort to discover whether his team’s recent success is transient or whether it will be of a more lasting nature. “I’m absolutely elated with our play,” Monkarsh beamed. “In beating Maine [on Saturday! we defeated one of the finest schools in the nation.” In changing their personnel, the Bulls have indeed changed their style. Last year Monkarsh could relax and wait for his charges to explode with a barrage of runs to ensure victory. This time around, however, the Bulls must rely on solid pitching and tight defense to pull them through. Until the tournament, Buffalo had been successful at performing this task only about half the time, but at Albany things began to go right. Hitting, fielding, pitching John Pederson emerged as the team’s hitting star, collecting nine hits over the weekend, and will anchor an outfield which is as yet unsettled. Jack Kaminska sparkled on defense at shortstop and tightens an infield consisting of John White at first, Mike Groh at second and Ed Durkin at third. ■••■Hear 0 Israel** For gems from the The above book is - available at: ..

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

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

While no deadline has been established for the committee Senate Faculty report, Chariman Johnathan Reichert hopes this will be done as quickly as possible. Although he declined to speculate on what the actual might committee report reccommend, Reichert said the idea for the committee was generated by the administrations’ concern that “too many borderline students were hanging on”.

Seven hundred and seventy-five students voted no opinion on the question. Schwartz felt the results from this question were particularly unclear because of the number of no opinion responses.

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

In memorandums sent the the Nuclear Regularatory Commission (NRC) and the utility twelve corporation’s customers, NFS President Ralph Deutsher assessed the project as The longawaited conclusion of Frank Herbert's classic “commercially impractical in light of regulatory requirements that have arisen since the project was initiated.” The company projected it would take a minimum of a dozen years and more than $600 million in additional capital to bring the facility back intojproduction. unlucrative By venture, NFS heaves an onerous financial burden on to the lap of the State of New York, which now assume prime must responsibility for disposing of the of toxic large quantities radioactive waste left behind by Company Oil {Jetty the subsidiary. In the words of nuclear physicist and Sierra Club consultant Dr. Marvin Resnikoff, “NFS will be leaving the State of New York with a major potential health and safety hazard and a tremendous financial liability of up to $480 million. Wastes A 600 jhousand gallon steel high-level of liqud tank radioactive waste, a fifteen acre burial ground of solid low-level rubbish and another 12,000 gallon tank of acidic high level waste presently inhabit the doomed West Valley site, thirty miles south of Buffalo. In addition, 200 metric tons of spent reactor fuel are sitting in the facility, awaiting a reprocessing that is never to occur. The 200 tons of uranium just exacerbate the safety hazard, indicated Resnikoff. The steel carbon tanks holding this high level liquid waste are designed to only last about forty years while the lethal fluid contained within will sustain levels of dangerously high radioactivity for hundreds of thousands of years. “These contaminants cannot be released into the environment under any stressed circumstances,” Resnikoff. “They pose long term health and safety risks to the residents of the area and to the fish, wildlife and human users of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario.” Yet NFS has candidly admitted that the tanks are vulnerable to rupture from sabotage or major earthquakes. Potential catastrophe If there were to be a leak at the facility, radioactive wastes cOuld enter Lake Erie via adjoining Cattaraugus • Creek. Even if just one percent ot the high level wastes were to escape, a grave 'health catasrophe would result, Resnikoff predicted. It is likely that a leak of this magnitude would contaminate the Buffalo City watgr supply. Ingesting this water or the fish which swam in it could induce cancer or birth defects.

NRC regulations demand the solidification and removal of all West Valley high level liquid waste to a federal depository within a period of five years. This plan, however, is not the least bit feasible. First of all, there is no in repository such federal existence at the present time, and secondly, the technology required for solidifying such a awesome amount of material is not at hand. It has been accomplished* on a limited laboratory level but not on a large commercial scale called for here.

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

App roximately'-'oO people were in attendance to hear details of upcoming projects for the year. With voter registration as its top priority, NYPIRG originally set a goal of 100,000 new voters by October 1. As of last week, the group could take credit for 15,000 to 20,000 new voters in Western New York, a figure the officialstermed “good.” NYPIRG Statewide the figure is already past 80,000 and NYPIRG now hopes to put 120,00 new voters on the statewide rolls this year.

A primary problem in the current state setup is that children with less than critical disciplinary problems can be sent to homes by their parents. In too many cases, the children leave these homes with greater potential to commit major criminal acts. Additionally, conditions in these homes are, according to director of the National Coalition for Children’s Justice Ken Wooden,“so terrible that they defy our conditions middle-classimaginations.” NYPIRG intends to utilize extensive use of local media to publicize its findings. There have already been accusations of child abuse made in Wooden’s book, Weeping in the . , Playtime of Others.' ’ NYPIRG’s Buffalo contingent will be particularly concerned with the investigation of the close to fifty children s institutions between here and Rochester. Other projects to be undertaken by the Buffalo chapter of NYPIRG; The Buffalo unit will reinforce statewide efforts in seeking a ban on non-returnable bottles and cans. The group is urging university officials to issure such a ban, claiming that it would save energy, conserve resources, reduce litter and solid waste, increase jobs, and lower prices to consumers.

NYP1RG will support bills in the stable legislature to reduce criminal penalties for the possession of small amounts of marijuana and seeks to change the definition of a sale to include only those transactions which involve a monetary profit. NYP1RG and the National Organization for the Reformation of Marijuana Laws (NORML) are the only two organizations lobbying in this state for such legislation. NYP1RG supports decriminalization rather than legalization due to the stigma that might be attached to the latter stance, as well as the need for a gradual easing of the law which would allow more extensive research into the possible dangers of the drug. A representative of NORML will speak here on October 6 and also participate in a symposium with supporters of all viewpoints the following day. NYPORG will solicit support for legislation to investigate the Educational Testing Service, which, through its SAT.LSAT.GRE, and other standardized tests has a “virtual monopoly on college aptitude testing in the United States,” according to NYPIRG.

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

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

He made the decisions and operational dispensed the money necessary and their preparation for execution, it said. Carlos merely followed his orders. The paper continued that, Scotland Yard, according to Carlos and companion Antonio Dage Bouvier were part of a group charged with committing crimes against certain Jewish people. The two men had been seen in London several times since the and were incident, murder two occupying apartments in the western part of according to city, the Commissioner Ray Habefshon. momentarily Le Monde stated that French police as well as other Western police forces had for a long time known of liasons between terrorist groups in different countries. Times, York The JYew however, said the discovery of Carlos seemed to specify the nature of the link and identify Paris as an organizational center for all terrorist activities, much to the chagrin of French authorities. . Communications established extremists have Some established communications with ethnic separatist groups all over Europe. In 1974, delegations from many such movements, some inclined toward violence and cultural and others strictly - political, convened secretly in Trieste, Italy. In attendance were Croats and Bretons, Irish and Welsh, Flemings’ and Frisians, Corsicans and Basques. Western intelligence sources believe that most of the discussion at Triests was on a theoretical level, but that recognized terrorist organizations did send representatives, Carlos has been linked to more recent terrorist incidents. On June 27, one year to the day after the triple murder in the Latin Quarter, hijackers boarded an Air France airliner in Athens. When Israeli . commandoes raided the airport and rescued the hostages, the two Germans were among’ those hijackers killed in the fierce fighting.

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

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

No more nice guy attempted to A few' years ago, explained Juola, many schools make grades “more humane.” They lengthened the time students could take to drop courses without penalty, added pass/tail options and some dropped D and F grades altogether. Now, however, the liberal trend has been reversed, the study shows. Of eleven schools which had dropped D or F grades, six have restored those grades in the past two years. which sits ypon till “would shake like a bowl of jello during a powerful earthquake." mused Resnikoff.

Another recent study showed that 45 percent ol the students surveyed at Kansas State University said that tougher grading policies would have no effect on their overall satisfaction with the university.

I just enjoy ripping open the bags.” �Sportspaige by Paige Miller Sports Editor Editor’s note: In the style of Dick Young, we present today (and at times in the future) hits and items which are not full stories in pieces themselves but nevertheless merit some attention. Bullpen the paper tor on-campus publicity, will make its tall debut on Thursday, if things go according to-plan. Its editor, Larry Amoros, was worried about possible competition between The Spectrum's sports staff, and Bullpen, as happened often last year when Bullpen was run by Dave Hnath. However, since this year the staffs of the two overlap, there is not much possibility of that happening again. Amoros does have a problem in that his deadline for Thursday issues is Monday, so he cannot cover anything that happens in the three days between. (By the way; if you want to write for Bullpen, call Amoros at 6364406.) There is no truth to the rumor that Amoros plans to write a gossip column called “Amorous Amoros.” It is true, however, that Amoros is the only person in whose honor a tree was once unearthed in Israel. Who gets priority It was reported in Wednesday’s The Spectrum that Clark Hall is now being closed at 7 p.m. What we failed to mention is that the volleyball team practices in the main gym from 5-7 pan., so those students wishing to play basketball must go either outdoors or to the Bubble. Several times, in inclement weather, Buffalo’s two varsity tennis teams have moved their matches indoors to the 6 p.m., Bubble, and the matches have often when the Bubble is scheduled to open for recreation. The question that must be solved is where do Statistics box you draw the line between what our varsity teftms should be allowed and what the"students should be allowed?-! don’t know, but right now, the students arp getting the short end of the stick. Basketball coach Leo Richardson treats all his playprs, both black and white, equally. In fact, he treats them as if they were green. However, at practices, he sayd,'“All you light green players. over there, and all you dark green ones on the other side.” Buffalo has a brother and sister combination playing varsity sports, and as far as 1 know, it’s the first one in the fpur years I’ve been here. Marc Miller played tennis fbr the Bulls three years ago, and sister Amy is currently a member of the women’s tennis team, and is undefeated at second doubles.

Hockey changes Last year, as you might recall, hockey tickets to Bulls games were free, but were only available a few days before the game, and to receive a ticket you had to get your ID card punched. That meant, at the end of the season, you could have thirteen holes in your LD. card. This year tickets to all thirteen home games will be given out at once, and again will be • , free to all undergrads. The hockey Bulls will enter a new conference next year, which includes Brockport, Cortland, Elmira, Geneseo, Oswego, RIT, Plattsburgh and Potsdam. The Bulls hope to cut down their travel costs, since many of the teams are in the Western New York area. Buffalo hockey coach Ed Wright was elected vice president of the new league. The Bulls have a new trainer, Don Cielewich, succeeding Mike Reilly. Cielewich served on the training staff of the Buffalo Bills last year and during the pre-season this year. His assistant will be Paul of Tonawanda, who served as student trainer for the Bulls for the last two years. . £ J** ' - .

Roger Maris in In their first home match of the season, the women’s tennis squad remained Buffalo’s only undefeated team with a crushing 6-1 win over St. Bonaventure. The match, which was originally scheduled for the Ellicott tennis courts, was moved to the Bubble because of the poor weather Thursday afternoon. The day before, Buffalo had squeaked by Fredonia with a 4-3 win. In the most exciting match of the day, Buffalo’s first singles player F.laine Tubinis defeated Mimi McDonald, 6-4, 6-3. McDonald kept rushing the net, and Tubinis took advantage by continually lobbing the ball over her head. Coach Betty Dimmick thought Tubinis played her best match ol the season. “You could see her (Tubinis’) thought process work,” commented Dimmick,” she really moved her opponent around. Tubinis was especially happy about the St. Bonaventure match in view of her frustrating defeat the day before. “The wind was a big factor yesterday,” she said, “I lost a lot of drop shots because of the wind.” Strong duo The otjier outstanding performance in the match was supplied by the Buffers first doubles team. Joanne Wroblewski and Mary Jo Scire won their second straight match with a 6-3, 6-1 win over the Bonnies’ Anita Broderick and Kate Scholl. Scire, a four-year veteran of the team, plays the net well, while Wroblewski has a strong serve. Together, Dimmick calls them, “our best hope at the state championships.” In other matches, third singles player Carol Waddell of Buffalo defeated her opponent, Mary Lynn. After losing the first set, 0-6, Waddell fought back to win the next two sets, 7-5 and 64. In the fourth singles match, Buffalo’s Kathy Ryan easily defeated Cathy Finneran, 6-3, 6-1. “She runs a lot,” said Dimmick, describing Ryan, a freshman, “she’s all over the court.” April Zolczer beat Kay Hoffman 64, 64 and the second doubles team ofKaren Weimer and Amy Miller defeated Faith Gavin and Pattie McKenna to round out Buffalo’s wins for the day The only loss of the day for Buffalo was in the second singles match, where Sharon Ackerman lost to St. Bonaventure’s Barb Maddi, 6-0, 6-2. Dimmick still has high hopes for Ackerman. “She’s got some things to work on, but she does have a great ground stroke,” declared $ Dimmick. 1 ■ With the combination of experience and talented younger.players, Dimmick is confident about thd rest of the season. The teanrhas the necessary depth to win their matches. “We have four or five girls who could play fifth singles or second doubles,” she commented. ' - ~ Monday, 27 September 1976 . The Spectrum .

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

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

He succeeds Dr. Lawrence Passwell in this post. Zimmerman explained that his interest in urban affairs stems from his experiences with VISTA and the Teacher Corps of Volunteers. After receiving a BA in English Literature from the University of Florida at Gainsville and an MS in Urban Education and Curriculum Development from the University of Nebraska at Omaha, he joined VISTA in 1967. While serving with VISTA in Lincoln County, Nebraska, and later with the Teacher Corps of Volunteers in Omaha, he came to believe the contemporary urban environment was a primary cause of many social problems connected with the economically disadvantages. This led to his earning Master of Architecture and Doctor of Jurisprudence degrees, both at this University. The College of Urban Studies, he explained, formed as a result of the merging of College Z which was concerned with the criminal justice system, and C.P. Snow College, which dealt with the technical aspects of urban planning. CUS’s purpose is to acquaint students involved in urban affairs with the practical approach to work in these areas. Courses offered by CUS include workshops and opportunities for actual field work, as well as The courses. and background introductory of working instructional staff is composed professionals from the fields ot law, law transportation, city government, public interest and research groups and university faculty. Zimmerman said he would like to see CUS become a more integral part of the University system by making the study of urban affairs more . interdisciplinary. Zimmerman’s opinion is that the students would greatly benefit by a program which would supplement the traditional theoretical knowledge taught in the University with practical knowledge and experience gained through CUS courses. This would serve to make the University theory of urban studies more relevant by showing how it can be applied, while giving those entrusted with implementing programs a better knowledge of their enforcement, Library Sciences . theoretical background. Currently, CUS operates on a shoestring budget and is kept alive primarily because of the efforts ot student body, an enthusiastic faculty and reported. Zimmerman The reduction of funds allocated to the various Colleges disproportionately affected CUS, he said. To rectify this, Zimmerman feels that the issues involving the Colleges in general must be brought out must in the open, and that the University authorities useful serves a truly decide which, of the Colleges purpose. If this is done, Zimmerman is confident CUS by will prove its worth, for it is the only vehicle their apply affairs can which students of urban knowledge and talents and learn what the real world -J° n Lines of urban affairs is all about. deadline Voter registrationpermanent resident of Erie County call the Erie County Board of If you are a the location of your polling place.

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

Chester Langway, -an eminent glaciologist and chairman of the Geological Sciences Department here, will lead a scientific expedition to the massive Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica next month. Joined by a complement of Danish, Swiss and other American reserachers, the team will supervise several “ice core” drillings on the Shelf and its geographical captive, Roosevelt Island, through mid-December. The Ross Ice Shelf Project (RISP) is only one phase of an international program of glaciological research which in the past few years has greatly accelerated in pace. The effort has involved the dispatching of expedition teams to the earth’swast polar ice masses, mainly in Greenland and Antartica where three inch cylindrical ice cores, ranging, up to 7500 feet in length have been Gean rooms After the depth-age relationships from several cores are cross-correlated a comprehensive model is established which can be used to definitively determine the age of the ice at any depth. The samples can also be dated with radioactive isotopes. But this aspect of glaciological research is conducted mainly by Swedish and Danish reserachers who are America’s main partners in ice sheet study. Another angle of investigation is chemical analysis. Melt samples from the cores (the samples in liquid state) are combed for trace elements and extraneous particles. This water is more pure than laboratory distilled water and thus the analyses must be carried out in dust-free laboratories. These facilities, which were completed last year, contain one area where there is no more than one part of dust per cubic meter of air. The relative amounts of various substances ranging from lead and sulphur to volcanic dust, are compiled through complex analyses of the ice. Upward or downward trends in the atmospheric content of volcanic dust can reveal the birth and termination of ice ages and the consequent modifications in climate. extracted , from the frozen depths via highly sophisticated drilling equipment. The ice samples, Langway explains “are time capsules of geological events and trends extending as far back as 125,000 years.” The cores are extensively studied for their peculiar physical and chemical characteristics. Long experience Geological The Buffalo Sciences has become an active Department participant in ice core research with the arrival of Chester Langway, almost two years ago. Langway, who is Senior Scientist to all Upited States research activity related to the Greenland Ice Sheet Project (GISP, has had long experience in this esoteric field and is without doubt one of the world’s most knowledgable and respected glaciologists. Buffalo is currently the only university in the nation conducting this type of investigation on a large scale basis, and thus it has become an international center for glaciological research, serving as curator for all polar and alpine ice obtained in the National Science Foundation (NSF) subsidized U.S. ice program. At a multi-national conference of glaciologists held in Buffalo last Monday, long and short term reserach objectives lower until 199L were formulated for upcoming Greenland Ice Sheet Project (GISP) reserach.

One project involves the drilling of an extraordinarily deep ice sample which Langway estimates will be the frozen record of 400,000—500,000 years of geological history. The two day meeting, which attracted local news media coverage, revealed a major finding of ongoing ice research: world temperatures will get progressively 2025. R1SP plans call for 100 meter drillings at various sites on the Ross Ice Shelf and Roosevelt Island. The Shelf is a huge floating mass of ice equal to the area of while Roosevelt Island is a Spain, mountainous land feature which rises above the ice sheet.The extracted ice cores from these sites will be flown by Navy C—131 transport year plane to -30 degree centigrade storage facilities in Buffalo. Here the samples will undergo extensive physical and chemical analyses. The physical analysis consists mainly of observing the layer structure of the cores Environmental contaminants The researchers pay close attention to trends of the last thousand years. One significant finding reveals a marked rise in the atmospheric concentration of sulfate ions since the inception of the lundustrial Revolution; the cumulative effect of burning massive amounts of hydrocarbons over 150 years. increases Substantial the in concentrations of other environmental contaminants, including lead, stemming from the widespread use of leaded gasoline in the internal combustion engine are discernible in the glacial record of the last 50 years.

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

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

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

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

He had rejoined his old backup group (who, in the interim, had made a few friends on their own) and was actually going out of his way of reach the public, playing all his old tunes just the.way we wanted to hear them. Despite a slight hint of uneasiness ("Stagefright") on Bob's part, the tour went over quite well and was, by all accounts, a thoroughly satisfying musical experience. Since then, the times they have a-changed: appearances at jet-set parties and concerts are no longer surprises; hastily written ditties to Dylan's personal heroes show their amateurish faces; the "legendary" Basement Tapes are exuded upon th6 public; the horrendous Desire album hits number one in the 3iHboard charts; the star-studed Rolling Thunder by Revue goes on a nationwide tour; Dylan get a cover story in People magazine and is quoted as considering hinhself "exclusive" rather that "seciusive"; Dylan simultaneously releases an hour-long television special and a live album, both entitled Hard Rain, and. the same week gets a cover story in TV Guide ...

There is no new material here, so no fresh insight into the status of his songwriting talents is to be had. However, Dylan's most recent, highly expressive vocal style (read "unmelodic shouting") makes even the renditions of some of his finest material sound like horrifying outtakes from Desire. Shit, even Cristopher Guest (National Lampoon’s Zimmerman sound-alike) sings better than does Bob on this album. Just look at him on the back cover: typical Eric Clapton stance, head bent over electric guitar. Woodstock-type festival crowd fading into the background.

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

"Lay Lady Lay" is similarly butchered, sounding amazingly like the Basement Tapes sessions, and "Memphis Blues Again", besides missing several verses, is also marred by incompetent vocals.

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

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

Page eleven �Hamlets —continued from page 9 ... the character, but he gives us quite a lot of it. His only serious flaw is his inability to convey a sense of Hamlet's elevated and almost visionary intellect, to haake us experience an incredibly activfe and brilliant mind playing over the whole surface of reality arid probing its de.pths. There have been very few actors in Our time, if any, who have had the tools to do this. Maybe Olivier was the only one, and his Hamlet was crippled by a heavy-handed and limiting Freudian interpretation. I have not seen a performance of Hamlet which included any more of the character's variety, while coherent, than remaining / Pennell's. All in all, Pennell's is the Hamlet of A.C. Bradley as developed by Granville-Barker and Dover Wilson, rather than the Freudian Hamlet of Olivier or the of bitter student-ascetics Williamson and Waterson. Monefte's by performance, contrast, suggests nothing. He seems to have no notion of what the character to be thinking and feeling and conveys no sense of a mind operating behind his histrionic gestures. As a result, the whole production is lackluster when he plays in it. Everyone seems to be going through their routines without responding to the other actors ( onstage. Pat Galloway's Gertrude is also to Patricia superior Bentley-Fisher's. Ms. Galloway plays the part with a kind of nervous instability which is engendered and exacerbated by Hamlet's constant attacks. Ms. Bentley-Fisher, on the other hand, seems unconcerned by Hamlet's her. While attitude toward Monotte delivers the speech "Nay, Madam, I know not 'seems'," she smiles absently and fiddles with some papers on a table. Thus, when we come to the closet scene her sudden expression of remorse is rather unconvincing. It may be that the actress is trying to portray Bradley's Gertrude, whose - stupid, physical good nature blinds her to moral questions, but if so, she needs to work out a more effective transition to "Hamlet, thou has cleft my heart in twain." Grim reality Michael Liscinsky is a rather insinuating, effeminate Claudius, without much regal majesty. I do not find his performance very compelling, even though I am not one of those who sees Claudfus as an equal and mighty opposite to Hamlet, (f an actor abandons the conventional portrayal of the role a fairly solid, self-centered Machiavel with limited — imaginative capacities but genuine ability as a practical ruler than he must rethink the part thoroughly. Liscinsky has not — '* done that. Marti Maraden is reasonably good as Ophelia. She is a character about whom, with all her lyrical pathos, it has become difficult for us to care, in the cynical seventies. Perhaps this is why the Stratford production has her brought in shackled in her mad scenes to add a note of grim physical reality. This also takes some of the burden of acting off of Ms. Maraden, since her struggle against — j. RECORDS — her bonds creates an excuse for distorted gestures which in turn can stand for her insanity. The Polonius of Eric Donkin is excellent. He is nastier and more authoritarian than simply foolish, but this is an acceptable way of reading the part.. The foolishness of Donkin's Polonius is that of someone so arrogant that he has only one line of thought in his head at a time, and is capable of changing di rect 'ons without the acknowledgment of slightest having been wrong or even inconsistent (a humorless version of Ted Baxter from The Mary Tyler Moore Show). Judy Collins, Bread Roses (Elektra) Few artists have been as consistently good as Judy Collins. For more than fifteen years, since the early 60's, she's managed to come up with album after album of gr,eat music. To give a glimpse of her vast repertoire, she's recorded such masterpieces as "Who Knows Where The Time Goes," "Someday Soon," "Albatross," "Secret Gardens," and "Che."

So touched was Judy that she dedicated this album to his spirit and recorded his last composition, "Plegaria A Un Labrador" which was written one hour before his death. The song is a moving tale of one's feeling of brotherhood and love in the hour of death. Recorded live at the All Saints Church in New York City; the rendition Collins gives is simply precious. Jay Berliner and Corky Hale, on acoustic guitar and harps, respectively, provide a pleasing background to Collins' forceful and heartfelt vocals. impressive.

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

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

IRC As someone who voted in favor of cutting the fee in half, 1 must confess that I am deeply disappointed to find that IRC will be receiving only one-third or so, of what was previously expected. It wastny contention then, and still is, that no organization run by and for students should show a profit. So naturally I was delighted to see those excess IRCB funds benefit the students. Last year, the mainbody reps were told that IRC would receive between 20 and 30 thousand dollars from I RGB, to be used for our activities. According to last Monday’s The Spectrum, a bookkeeping error was made and IRC will get only $10,000. Anyone can make an error and I RGB is no exception, but I can’t help feeling that IRC feepayers were screwed out of thousands of dollars , worth of activities.

Clifford Falk the bull pen by David J. Rubin Special Features Editor Mike is an undecided voter, and he hopes that the debates will help him make up his mind. He picks up some magazine and finds a story about the debates. It says that barter is ahfead in the West thanks to his straight talk. “Maybe 1 should vote for Carter,” thinks big Mike. But then he reads on and discovers that Ford pledged millions for the bankrupt cities. “Maybe Ford’s the man,” rethinks Mike. Carter is not popular among Catholics, says the story, but it adds that Ford said during the debates that he was not against abortion. Now Mike is really stuck. The article continues. Eugene McCarthy is drawing basic strength from labor and the 18-25 age group. Mike, a young 25, now considers casting his vote for the independent, When the story further adds that Lester Maddox is against bussing, Mike considers casting the magazine into the Pacific. In fact, Mike is so frustrated that he vows not to read another political news story until after the election. Instead, he decides to make his decision solely on the debates. So, he makes a special effort to catch debates two and three. In fact, he cancels a date with his company’s gorgeous receptionist simply to stay home and watch the “any topic debate. He listens. He listens. He listens some more, and nothing. Both Ford and finally he understands Carter talk rings aroynd poor Mike. Mike isn't stupid, but he doesn’t know about HUD or about billion dollar cuts in the defense budget or about what Jimmy Carter did for the people of Georgia. All Mike knows is that Carter speaks with a southern accent, and Ford is bald. So, Mike remains undecided until November 3. As he drives home from work, he is troubled that he hasn’t made up his mind yet. Stuck in traffic on Interstate 90,he turns on a news report where he hears that Ford was drinking his favorite brand of beer at a small gathering following a news conterence. A smile comes over Mike’s face. “Hell, he thinks, any guy who drinks my kind of beer must be good enough to voting booth be my kind of president.” And in the not with his Matteo votes Mike Di day, next the conscience, but with his beer. . Last night (barring some unforseen disaster between press time and prime time), we all sat around and watched the debates. Doubtlessly, some clever journalist will come up with a better name for them than “the debates,” but for the time being “the debates” will have to do. We listened to President Ford and Jimmy Carter field questions about everything that could ever possibly take place from seas to shining sea. We admired Ford’s athletic build and wondered how we could get in touch with Jimmy Carter’s dentist because our children are cavity prone. Yet while we watched, some interesting things were going on behind the scenes. Amy Carter, young daughter of the former Georgia governor, was caught watching the debates by her grandmother, Lillian. Since it was well past Amy’s bedtime, Lillian punished the young whipper-sanpper forbidding her to drink lemonade for a week. Johnny Carson’s writers hung on every word spoken by anyone during the debates, and they came up with enough material to keep Carson in mink-lined monologues right up to election day. But more importantly, various newscasters and political analysts from the networks, major newspapers, and major magazines were sitting around keeping score. What were they scoring?

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

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

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

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

Determination high To this point the negotiations as a f the the students extra time Spectrum have centered on Page two . The Spectrum . Wednesday, 22 September 1976 Education virtually unchanging position of union Board, member determination to continue the strike seems to have increased. This was indicated in a “virtually unanimous” approval for continuing the strike at a meeting Sunday, and a call for the resignation of the entire Board of Education. The Board responded that it had not been elected by the BTF, and was responsible only to the people of Buffalo. Another unusual development has been the formation of the “Buffalo Parents Coalition for a Better Education,” which has put conducted activities to pressure on the city for greater allocations to education. Two hundred people attended a rally held at City Hall Sunday, according to union sources. In a related event last weekend, the United Teachers Association, black along with three the organizations (including BUILD), announced support for the strike and declared that they would assist teachers on the picket lines if the strike were not settled on Monday. Other including citizen several, organizations, chapters of Concerned Citizens of Buffalo have called on the Board to stand fast in the face of union demands for “more pay for less work.” Public employee strikes have traditionally been very bitter, accompanied by a great deal of mudslinging, as the emphasis is heavily on public opinion. Public employee strikes have the greatest impact on the public, and it is therefore crucial where the citizenry places the blame. Last week, a Courier-Express survey gave suprising answers to this question. Although general media coverage and editorials ha/fe pictured the union as acting irresponsibly, public opinion was not so clear. Of a widely »dispersed five hundred surveyed by the Conner, 195 or 38 percent blamed the union. However, 171. or 34 percent blamed the Buffalo Common Council, which allocates education funds. And 46 or nine percent blamed the Board, Nine percent were undecided. This could be interpreted to mean that the public sided with the union against the city, 43 to 38 percent. With the union’s recent reduction of its wage demand, it would be reasonable to predict that public favor may shift even more toward the union �EUicott security studied New electronic security system installed in Bethune by Alan Most Staff Writer Spectrum Installation has begun on a $9000 electronic security system at Bethune Hall, which will include video surveillance, burglar alarms and a card access system. Though final plans for using the system are in the hands of a joint committee of Art Department faculty and students, operations will begin once the committees decision is made. , Bethune Hall, or the Meter Building, is several blocks south of the Main Street Campus. The new security system will be financed from the SUNY Construction Fund. Additionally, Campus Security is presently studying feasibility of locating video surveillance in the Ellicott Complex parking lot, according to technical supervisor Charles Brunskill. Both Bethune Hall and the Ellicott Complex arfe “designs for crime,” Brunskill said, and therefore require the use of technical equipment. Although both structures are located in crime ;free relatively nieghborhoods, both are isolated from their respective campuses, and both are relatively accessable to the public. Bethune Hall was originally the ' y, jh had different space and design needs than its present occupants the — Art Department and School of Architecture and Environmental Design. As an academic building, especially one that contains studios, it is in use ah hours of the day and night. Bethune Hall is alos next door to Bennett High School. Ellicdtt is a massive superstructure of spaces that range from the most public (the terrace) to the most private (dorm rooms). Though the architects have provided sdme sense of a gradation of types of spaces ANNOUNCING: undergraduate Sociology Assoc. & Alpha Kappa Delta Wed. Sept. 22 4 -6 pm 330 Norton bet\ ;en the t\Vo extremes, there is easy access to all spaces. Adding to the problem, Ellicott’s parking fields are protected from visual surveillance by high earth berns; the parking fields are divided by similar berns. All are planted with grass, and the interior ones have pine trees. This leads to decreased visibility and deadened of noise, impact whether it be a truck roaring h>y or a call for help. The existence of over eighty entrances and exits to and from the structure compounds the problem. So how are these structures to be protected?

Inherent in this the idea of full is plan responsibility on the part of the “proper" users of the building. Though Brunskill said that Campus Security is now working with R.A.s and students in various dorms to in order open Communication lines and form groups, he does not feel that such a system would be as effective as other modes of protection at Bethune, or that the residents of Ellicott can rely solely upon it The other alternative is placing the brunt of the responsibility for protection in the hands of another party, through either the use of security officers or technical equipment. Because the deployment of security officers to cover the Ellicott sprawling Complex efficiently would be difficult and expensive. Brunskill recommends the use of technological such as videotape, equipment, burglar alarms, and the card access system. Manpower could be better utilized, he says, by hooking these systems into a central control panel at Campus Security, where officers could monitor many areas at once,, and respond when needed. Brunskill feels such a system will prevent invasion of privacy, yet defend people and equipment by deterring crime. The limit self-imposed restrictions both the scope of what the equipment will detect and the “minimizing [of] any physical or psychological obstacles that may inadvertantly be .forced upon those individuals utilizing or with the secured working environment.” Thus Brunskill dismisses the use of closed curcuit television. In an article written in the Journal of Campus Law Enforcement last - continued on page 10— Vote today College council, SSC, football all on SA ballot referendum on the Student Association (SA) ballot today is a feeler proposition, sampling student reflections on last summer’s shutdown of Social Sciences College (SSC). SA President Steven Schwartz indicated that the proposition is important because for the first time there will be tangible student feedback on the subject. One the o,f questions appearing Acting upon the recommendations of the College Chartering Review Committee (CCRC), President Robert Ketter closed the College last July 30. The shutdown was met by protests and angry charges of undemocractic procedure from Social Sciences faculty and supporters. They said Ketter had disregarded the CCRC majority which had advised conditional approval of the College. One of the major criticisms cited by the CCRC was lack of student involvement and support. The results of this referendum could resolve the report, support question. The proposition asks whether students agree or disagree with the President’s decision. The voter has the option of agreeing, disagreeing, or expressing no opinion on the matter. A vote to disagree means that one supports moves to reinstate the College and condones the formation of a student-faculty commission to review the closing action. Other referendum questions include a proposal to reinstate the long defunct University of Butfalo football team (on a more modest club level), and a canvessing of student support for the three Wednesday, 22 September Steuen Schwartz contact hour-four credit system here. Buffalo and Binghampton are the only branches of SUNY which award academic credit in this manner. In addition to the referendum there will be voting for a student representative to the College Council. The Council is an important policy-making body members include top business and civic leaders in the city of Buffalo. Thus it is imperative to have a student attend the Council’s proceedings even though the student observer lacks voting power.

The question we would like you to answer is: Yes, I would like to see a football team given the above conditions. □ Early this summer. President Robert Ketter closed the Social Sciences College, citing both his academic cabinet & the College Chartering Committees Review Board's report as his prime source of justification. The minority report, amongst various charges, cited the lack of student interest as a chief fault, & criticism of the college. It was clear to both segments of the Review Committee that change was needed. The majority report felt that they should be given six months to change and the minority report felt they were already given enough time to change. To gain a better understanding of how the undergraduate student body feels, we're asking if you would respond to one of the three listed below: No, I would not like to see a football team. □ I have no opinion on the subject I agree with the decision to close down the Social Science College, as stated by Dr. Ketter.

The Spectrum Wednesday, 22 September 1976 . �' • ■ - ■ f Buckley, Moynihan oiit for middle-of-the-road voters by John Reiss Assistant Sports Editor Having defeated Representative Bella Abzug in an arduous and mudslinging campaign, Democratic Senatorial candidate Daniel Patrick Moynihan faces a two-fold task: reuniting New York’s Democratic Party defeating while incumbent Republican-Conservative James L. Buckley. The primary race offered five choices to New York’s Democratic voers, of whom only twenty-five percent decided to voice an opinion. Besides Abzug and Moynihan, the field included Abraham Hirchfeld, New York City Council President Paul O’Dwyer, and former senatorial nominee Ramsay Clark. However, the race soon narrowed to two as Abzug and Moynihan became the focal points of the contest. Moynihan won by a very slim margin, emerging with a plurality of 37 percent to Abzug’s 36 percent. The outcome was still in doubt in the wee hours of the morhing following the election,'with Moynihan holding a narrow lead over his more liberal opponent with much of Manhattan, Abzug’s stronghold, still to be counted. By dawn, however, it became apparent that the former United States ambassador to the United Nations had escaped with a hairbreadth victory as "Abzug flew back to Washington, grudingly expressing her support for the victor. Difficult task , Buckley won the endorsement of the Republican Party with relative ease compared to his counterpart, Democratic He dispensed with Representative Peter Peyser in a primary whose results were never really in doubt. Peyser’s only chance lay in the hope that due to overconfidence, Buckley supporters would stay away from the polls. This situation never materialized. forces Moynihan’s chore of joining together of the state’s democratic party is a difficulrone. In many people's minds he is not the ideal Democratic Candidate. Based on previous elections a Democratic candidate can count on support from Third World groups, Jews; Catholics and the basically liberal New York C’ity vote, which accounts for half of the statewide electorate. However, the primary offered a slate of liberal candidates and much of Moynihan’s support came from upstate conservative Democrats, some of whom could be persuaded to switch, to Buckley should Moynihan veer too far to the left . Too conservative Y*et it must be pointed out, that the great majority of Abzug supporters are likely to find Buckley far too conservative for their political palates. Moynihan is viewed as a more conservative candidate than Abzug, yet considered wel| to the left of Buckley. Hence it is likely that Abzug’s support will shift to the Democratic nominee. A New York Times opinion poll bears this suspicion out. Of those polled who voted for Abzug, two-thirds said they would be more inclined to vote for Moynihan. Only 18 percent ■ expressed a preference for Buckley, while the remaining voters were undecided. One can assume that while Abzug Moynihan not endorse supporters may enthusiastically, he will be acceptable enough for them to vote for him. Moynihan has an acute problem with the black vote, of which he received only 8 percent in the primary. If this trend continues through the general .

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

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

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

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

Page six The Spectrum Wednesday, 22 September 1976 . . ’OK.ffcS—NBff,,.* Buffalo not gray; ' “. . . in Buffalo people spend a great deal of time discussing their emotional states of mind.” I am from "buffalo. Perhaps some readers are already beginning to make assumptions about the subject of this letter,’based on that introduction. To those readers I’d ask the courtesy of reading with, an open mind. I am reacting to, the “Yellow Submarine” article that appeared in the Friday 9/10/76 issue of The Spectrum. I’ve been here four years, and in that time I’ve overcome, to some extent, my efhnocentrism as a native of Buffalo. 1 have told myself that when I heard or read an attack of some sort on Buffalo, 1 should not take it as an attack on me. Yet, in the midst of anger I’ve felt resulting from these attacks, I’ve felt the pull of the “love it or leave iF>response. But 1 disdain that attitude in >o I’ve struggled inside with the conflict. other»f lx/ Many criticisms of Buffalo, like any other city, are justified. Many of the observations that ■Solomon made in her article rang true in my own mind; it was an intriguing, provocative article. What troubles.me, though, whaf prompted me to shed my habit of passively accepting all these bad raps, was the message that I could read between the lines; the tone, not so much of the article itself, as its inclusion, its featuring on the front page, in our infamous downstater propaganda, machine, The Spectrum. I’m very irritated by the, need of so many on this campus, the need to find fault with Buffalo. Personally, it seems to me that the focus of this had karma could be any place that is not New York City; it’s just that Buffalo, being the provincial, conservative town that it is, magnifies the differences. One of the valuable things I’ve learned here at U.B. is the great importance of acknowledging and expressing my feelings. I feel that in this paper it isn’t always safe to do so. Paranoia clouds this campus. Something else I’ve learned is that what we sometimes label as “paranoia” is an authentic,, appropriate response when a person feels threatened by his/her environment, or situation, or another person. So I’m ,paranoid about giving you my name. It just ain’t worth the risk. 1 don’t want or need to be villified or insulted; my experience here tells me that those aren’t unrealistic expectations. Should this letter draw antagonistic responses, I have a sense for where they might aim. I see crowbars being driven into all the “illogical, noh-rational, emotional” holes in my argument. Well, so be it. I don’t expect anything to change, and this isn’t intended to be any sort of argument. As we have been told by Ms. Solomon, paranoia is a time honored tradition here. I guess I’m just not totally free of the feeling that, in some way, when I’m confronted with the time honored tradition of shitting on Buffalo, I’m being shit on too. It’s this need to play “Ain’t It Awful” that really, makes me heartsick, though. 1 really believe that the paranoia mentioned in Solomon’s article is based in part to a reaction to this tiresome emotional dumping. S'o. many of us are really afraid of each other! But it’s too risky to admit that. So we seethe and live by the Rule of Silence. And thereby close the door on all kinds of beautiful possibilities between people. The hypothesis is that Buffalo, in almost every aspect of its being, is gray. It seems to me that what we have here is a classic illustration of the self-fulfilling prophecy, thus: if you want to find gray, you will see gray, perhaps see something that isn’t really there, and not see much else. Especially when the lenses that cover your eyes are painted and re-painted so constantly, so thoroughly, so desperately. Damn it!' Take off your glasses! I am from Buffalo, and I am not gray! Name withheld by request Greek societies lauded To the Editor. In reference to the article written in Monday’s issue of The Spectrum, we, as members of Chi Omega National Women’s Fraternity, would like to correct some gross errors stated in that column. First, we believe The Spectrum made a neglectful oversight in a blatant show of research in stating that there are no Greek organizations here. Epsilon chapter of Chi Omega has been active in Buffalo since 1940 and was unaffected by the transition Of national organizations during the 1960s. Last September The Spectrum printed a lengthy article about our fall rush, and within the past two weeks we have purchased over $40 worth of ads in various The Spectrum columns concerning Chi Omega. Next care to address Mr. Bill Machmer concernin#%)me untruths mentioned in the article. Machmer stated that he was amazed that there were no Greek letter socieites when he enrolled here; when in fact several days prior to this article, Mr. Machmer had numerous consultations with members of Chi Omega and had visited our sorority house. Also, Machmer has told interested University women that our chapter consists of four sisters, when in actuality we are twenty-four strong. - Concerning Machmer’s comments about hazing and the “making-’em-look-like-assholes- routine”; as an institution steeped in tradition since 1895, Chi Omega is forbidden from hazing and any harassment activities. We commend Ms. Kathy Kieffer in her insight as to the need for sisterhood. Our sisterhood in Chi Omega is based on academic achievement (Spring ’76 chapter cum of 3.17), vocational and professional development, community service projects which consist of at least two per school year, and of course, social activities ranging from alumni luncheons to a formal dinner dance. Chi Omega has 163 active chapters across the nation. Our survival in Buffalo within the past 10 years is due to the fervent efforts and enthusiam of our members, advisors and many alumni. Lastly, we are not a discriminatory group, and certainly discriminatory practices amongst National Greek Societies have ceased with the current times. We feel this is evident in SASU’s look into readmitting Greek Organizations into the SUNY system as of last year. We heartily encourage all earnest University women to persue sisterhood in National Greek Societies such as Chi Omega. The Sisters of Chi Omega, Epsilon Chapter �Kenneth Johnson Editor's note: The'following letter by the Kenneth Johnson Support Committee was addressed to (he University Community. Kenneth Johnson, a black, resident of Buffalo is being framed for a series of rapes Which he did not commit. He has been known and respected in Buffalo as a student and community leader as a rehabilitation counselor in Mental Health; he worked to help his clients prepare to live and function in the community. There is no credible evidence linking Kenneth to these attacks. He has proof of his whereabouts at the times the rapes supposedly occured. He bears NO resemblance to the composite Johnson ‘THIS sketch issued by the police from the victims descriptions. Three judges have refused, to even read sworn affidavits which could easily clear Kenny’s name. In December 1975, Kenny was beaten and arrested' by heavily armed plainclothasmen where he worked.

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

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

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

In fact, the all-time best-seller on the college textbook charts is a volume called Accounting Principles by C. Rollin Niswonger and Philip C. Fess, which has been on the list for 2444 weeks and is in its eleventh edition. And for anyone who thought that textbooks existed only for that rare student who is adept at memorizing dates and figures, Prentice-Hall publishers put out a text called Life Insurance that has been selling steadily since 1912. The new edition is priced at SI5.95 and is expected to sell 25,000 copies in 1976. But the words “new edition” are enough to bring tears to the eyes of a student taking introductory courses like economics -or political science. These courses often require texts which are revised regularly and that means that a student as fifty percent. For the publisher, though, the used book business is a pain in the profits. In fact, one of the main reasons for revisions, according to a leading college textbook publisher, is to cut out the used book market.

Presently being tried at MacDonald Hall, the system utilizes a card magnetically coded with the student’s indentification number. Brunskill hopes that the card could eventually also be used for student voting, food service, and library services. The card, when used for security, is inserted through a box programmed to accept the numbers of students who are supposed to use the facility and reject all others. The department secretary located in the third floor office would be responsible for allowing visitors into the building.

Child Welfare Agencies Child abuse b real problem Clark Hall Recreation hours cut due to lack of funds by Ed Vasbinder Spectrum Staff Writer Since Thursday, recreation hours at Clark Hall have ended at 7 p.m. instead of 10 p.m. as they have in the past. The cutback in hours was necessitated because there was not enough money to hire another equipment manager The current equipment manager, Joe Staebell, is aided by students, many of whom are on work-study programs. Staebell is currently doing the work of three people, according to Dr. Sal Esposito, chairman of the Department of Recreation, Athletics and Basic Instructions. Esposito explained that he did not feel he could trust the students to hand out or guard thousands of dollars worth of equipment when Staebell was not around. Therefore, he was forced to close Clark Hall at seven, unless a special event was scheduled. Women on loan The situation in the women’s locker room was even worse, according to Esposito. The only full-time worker there is a woman on loan from the maintenance department until 2:30 p.m., but Esposito worried about what would happen if the maintenance department “took her back” or if Staebell got sick. Esposito also said that several men have been seen in the women’s locker room lately, and was worried about a possible rape. That was another reason why he decided to close the gym. Students squeezed “It’s an unfortunate situation,” said Esposito. “We’re asking the students to bear with us. We’re doing the best we can to resolve the situation. It should be resolved in a week or two.” Esposito explained that two more full-time equipment managers would be needed at a minimum, but at the moment, there was no money available to pay them. Esposito said his superiors were looking into it, and that he was optimistic about resolving the situation. , In the meantime, Esposito was trying to change the pool hours (which previously were 7-9 p.m.) and recreation hours so that students could still use Clark Hall as much'as possible. “It’s nobody’s fault,” Esposito reiterated. “We just want the students to bear with us untif we can resolve the situation.” BCOUPON A Gourmet Experience You Should Not Miss! ! ■ z I !

Wednesday, 22 September 1976 Neglected and abused children are the innocent victims who bear the brunt and suffer the consequences of disturbed parents or guardians. All too frequently they have no alternative other than accepting . their plight. These children are the responsibility of society in general and various Child Welfare agencies in particular. The problem of abuse and neglect has become so devastatingly real that New York State has established an “Abuse Registry” in Albany to reported complaints and delegate monitor responsibility for investigation and follow-up to Child Welfare agencies within the various counties. The Erie County Child Welfare Services (ECCWS) focuses on problems ranging from underfed and poorly clothed children to situations involving severe bodily injury. H. Morris Campbell, a Child Welfare Protection worker for Erie County, is charged with the responsibility of making initial contact with parents or guardians and investigating reported incidents of child abuse or neglect. Campbell estimates that approximately half of complaints received by his unit stem from those sources who are required by law to file suspected abuse or neglect reports. .These sources include teachers, doctors, nurses and public employees, among others. Concerned citizens, neighbors and are_ responsible relativ&s for the remaining percentage. Campbell further explained that about fifty percent of the complaints afe valid and require follow-up action. Through counseling and other social work procedures, the majority of these problems can be settled for the mutual benefit of both child and adult. involving ’ child abuse and neglect require action. court ' action is brought by Child Welfare ordered supervision could be Department, recommended or the child may be removed from the home. The former would authorize a Child Welfare worker to visit the home in question on a periodicbasis to monitor the situation and recommend needed changes. A family’s failure to cooperate would dictate a second court appearance that would increase the chances of a child’s removal from his If,court court home. Foster homes widely used Foster homes are perhaps the most widely used short-term solution for the protection of children, Campbell said that a child can remain in a foster home for as long as the court feels that parents or guardians may be capable of reaccepting the child in the future. A prolonged placement Ls subject to periodic judicial review. When a Child Welfare worker concludes, after working with parents or guardians of children who have been placed in foster care that they will never be sufficiently capable of providing adequate care for the child, a “Permanent Neglect Petition” in Family Court is filed. If the ruling of the judge upholds the recommendations of the local agency, an “Adjudication of Permanent Neglect” is issued, a child may be eligible for adoption. An adjudication of permanent neglect is issued only in those cases where no improvement or effort has been demonstrated to correct the problem. Campbell said child abuse and neglect is not limited to particular racial or economic backgrounds. However, he has found from his experience that neglect is more prevelent in single-parent households. A witness of child abuse or neglect of someone who suspects its existence is asked to contact the Any legal means Campbell said thirty percent of the complaints toll-free registry (800) 342-3720) or the local Child received by the Erie County Child Welfare Services Welfare Intake Unit. �Bethune vending machines remain unused in basement not being used.” He also added that water isn’t very accessible hindrance with, potential office storage space. (The relocation of these machines is possible in the near future.) Larry Zimmerman, Assistant to the Dean of the School of Architecture and Environmental Design, initially recommended that the machines be disconnected. “For two years we have been listening to cascading soda pops and the noise from congregating students, and last year we put an end to it.” He explained that the walls around the vending area are made out of baseboard, a material which sound easily penetrates, and it Was almost impossible for instructors to teach in a nearby lecture hall. Hungry people Last January the machines were moved to the basement to await their pending relocation, and to this date they are still in that locality. Alan Starr, Director of Student Affairs for Millard Fillmore “The College said, (MFC) majority of night school students work during the day and usually come to Bethune without eating.

Last year, Zimmerman and former Art Department chairman Willard Harris decided on the front section of Bethune Hall’s basement for the vending machines. The area was turned down by the Environmental Health and Safety officer because “the area was lacking adequate space for egress,” he said. Earlier this month a new area in the basement was designated for vending purposes,, and was accepted by the Environmental Health and Safety Council for use as such. “The problem now is that we can’t get we clean up people who together so anything done until the area and get the have the authority we can make some Dismal weekend for teams It was a dismal weekend for the Buffalo Bulls. Six teams went out on the road last Friday and Saturday, and only one, the women’s tennis team, came up a winner. The female tennis squad opened their season at Houghton,, where they took , the rain-shortened affair, 4-2. Buffalo’s top three netters could not manage a victory, although in fairness, it should be noted that Carol Waddell was leading 7-6, 1-1 before rain ended her match with a “no-decision.” . The Bulls’ strength was their doubles teams and the bottom of their singles lineup. Buffalo’s Carol Eisanmon and Carol Jaffee each scored two-set shutouts over their opponents. First doubles, team Joanne Wroblewski and April Zolczer easily defeated Houghton’s best pair, while Karen Wymer and Kathy Ryan, Buffalo’s second doubles team, also Were victorious. “We have a great deal of depth,” said Bulls coach Betty Dimmick., “That’s why our fourth and fifth singles and second doubles were able to win. 1 think that’s going to be a big factor this year.” Dimmick added that four players did not make the trip for various reasons and that the team’s lineup was still not set. Dimmick said that the Bulls would continue to play challenge matches but by the end of the week, the team’s lineup should be set. The women’s field hockey team, also in their season’s opener, succumbed to Houghton 6-1. Houghton took a 5-0 first half lead, but the Bulls made some adjustments, and played an even game the second half. Nancy Wallace scored Buffalo’s only Buffalo’s baseball team dropped to 3-4 this fall when Niagara won 8-7. Rain reduced the game to just five-and-one-half innings and cancelled the second game of the doubleheader. The Purple Hagles’ Lou Thyroff did most of the damage, driving in four runs and scoring the winning run on a passed ball in the fifth. * $69.95 FREE 120-pg, Applications Manual w/Corvus 500 ... credit cards) $ 71 00 145.00 127.60 HP-27 , $175.00 HP-67, 395.00 175.00 HP-25C — V:" BUT THERE’S STILL TIME NATIONAL Mathematician 4510 (2 mm Scientist 4520 Scientist PR 4525 Financier 6020 Financier PR 6025 Statistician PR 0035 NS-4640 In California call $17,88 ) 29 95 54.95 26 45 54 95 54.95 54.95 (213) 370-5795 or ORDERS ONLY CALL; (800) 421 0367 (other than Calif) Send money order (Immed ship ) or pars, ck (2 whs to clear); In Ca add 6S sales tax Add S2.50 min shipping charges U S. only S4 00 for SR 52.

The hills were the main cause of the Bulls’ downfall, since they have no hills to practice on here in Buffalo. “We run up a curb and that's our hill,” Gantz joked. “I checked their splits (times] and they were much faster on the flat parts than on the hills.” Gantz also claimed that many of the Bulls were not in such good shape, and that they would have finished closer to Niagara if the hills and lack of conditioning hadn’t worn them down. Syracuse continued their jinx in soccer, beating Buffalo 3-1. The Bulls have never beaten the Orangemen in soccer. The Astroturf in Syracuse played havoc, causing the ball to take far too many unusual , bounces. “No matter what happens, something comes along to take it (the win) away," said Bulls coach Sal Esposito, noting that the Astroturf disrupted the Bulls passing game.

Prepared by the Regents State Education Department staff, the plan’s most controversial proposal is for an immediate end to construction at all state campuses, based on predicted continuing declines in enrollments; The construction moratorium and the rest of the REgents plan have been sharply denounced in an extraordinary series of public from SUNY statements Boyer, Chancellor Ernest individual campus presidents and representatives of the student governments. At this University, the plan once again throws into question the ultimate time of completion of the, Amherst Campus, and for this reason it was condemned by President Robert Ketter at public hearings hfeld in Buffalo earlier GSEU asks for a meeting with Somit act was '.further to diminished. ■ GSEU Organizing Secretary Officials of the Graduate Tom Muka was skeptical of the Union sincerity of Ketter’s reply. In an Employees Student interview with The Spectrum, ite meeting a requested have (GSEU) just with Acting University President stated, “President Ketter' was image the of an portraying attempt to Somit, an in Albert make their concerns and priorities empathetic administrator in an known to the administration early attempt to appease the graduate in the school year.

Contributing Editor I —' — ability by Dimitri Papodopoulos • • .... The specific issues that will be brought up at the meeting include 1) open access to University information, 2) tuition waivers, 3) delays in distribution of first to graduate student employees, 4) wage problems, income tax which infclude four-year complications and assistance for graduate students, 5). oversized classes and the paychecks resultant increased workload for Teaching Assistants (TA) and Graduate Assistants )GA), 6) health insurance, and 7) official GSEU recognition. This plan, according to GSEU President Howie Kling, is an effort to follow-up last year’s efforts, which were. for the most part ineffectual. Last year’s petition listed five demands that are basically similar to the meeting topics. Unable and powerless One of the important GSEU demands of last year that was not for plea was the repeated restoration of the 165 Peaching and Gradual® Assistarttships Assistantships that were eliminated as a result of budget cuts. Another important feature of last year’s petition was the threat to strike if Ketter had failed to act upon the problems by last April 2. Responding to the petition, Ketter told Kling in a letter last February that, “It would be ludicrous to attempt to answer these demands . . . because as demands, I cannot meet them. As concerns, I can share them and continue my efforts to alleviate but the problems they cause only to the extent of my authority in each issue.” the five issues, Regarding Ketter felt “unable and powerless to make such decisions.” Ketter said that since the GSEU is not officially recognized by the Public Employees Relations Bureau, his - public and accreditation requirements unless between the is independent sectors can no longer Amherst Campus the completed.

Vice President Betty Cochran said the administration teaching the and considers research work TAs and GAs do for professors part of a graduate GSEU student’s education. But the TAs and GAs claim that this work is necessary to the University, and therefore should be paid for. They feel they have been put in a situation where they can be “exploited as cheap labor.” A GSEU newsletter charged, “The administration gives them the opportunity to gain experience for their degree work, but does not consider their unique needs as students.” GSEU was formed in 1974 in response to reductions in wages caused by inflation and increasing cutbacks. The budgetary organization’s plans this year include upholding its original fight for high quality and accessible public higher education. Cochran felt that GSEU’s role was “three-fold.” “It takes interest in departmental issues. University wide issues and events that take place outside of campus,” she explained. Cochran cited as an example of GSEU’s off-campus responsibility its support of the Teachers Federation of Buffalo. She felt that the Buffalo teachers’ strike echoed the same plea as the GSEU’s. GSEU’s support for the recently dissolved Social Science College and the Office for Foreign Students marks its ties with University issues, she said. fAs and GAs receive a minimum salary oi $3,90Q(fAs teach approximately 40 percent total of th? undergraduate courses, including the majority of the freshman and courses in many sophomore departments. TAs are required to teach one course. The basic pay of a TA has not changed since 1967, while the rate of inflation has risen over fifty percent. * words' “bi.i-- and insensitivity,” "large segments of charged thai population the still find themselves unable to gain a public education in their own region, while the percentage of college students in public institutions remains lower than most major states.” Health care may suffer Ketter said at a later time, “Not only will there be a partially non-functional completed, . . campus in Amherst, but health sciences at the University cannot be expanded” and will have to be reduced because of . Autonomy shaken While the Regents plan calls for planning between cooperative public and private institutions, and state funding of private colleges on a “cost of instruction” basis, they say that “public support for higher education is most often focused on developing public institutions.” The Director Budget projects a of the decreasing share of public funds for education, the report ads. against this Arguing philosophy, Ketter’ told the value “The Regents, desirability of; interdependency Buffalo's Emerald City materialized two years ago in the shape of the Ellicott Complex.

Specifics as to how the program will be handled have not been completely worked out thus far, indicated Luther doses by Christmas University Health Services will begin the innoculation program soon after the Erie County Health Department receives its serum shipments. The innociilation is not mandatory and should not be administered to people who are allergic to eggs (the vaccine is produced inside eggs). It is also not advisable for children under the age of three. The vaccination has been found to, be most effective in people over twenty-three. It has produced high fevers in a small percentage of volunteers under the age of eighteen. Some health specialists feel people between eighteen and twenty-five may need two injections in order to successfully combat the disease. Musselman, Director of University Health Services. The Health Services plan is part of a nationwide alert, aimed at fighting the feared influenza epidemic. The new flu strain, which was discovered at the Fort Dix military installation in New Jersey last March, killed one soldier, and afflicted one hundred others. It generated so much concern because it is closely related to the 1918-19 influenza pandemic that killed 548,000 people in the United States alone. But since the Fort Dix incident however, not one case has been found in the world. Thus, many doctors and health officials, among them Dr. Albert Sabin, developer of the oral polio vaccine, feel President Ford’s 135 million dollar to innoculate every person in the country against the disease may be unnecessary with the possibility of an epidemic now , / slim. The Federal government will begin distributing the first batch of twenty to thirty million vaccines October 1 and hopes to distribute one hundred million University flu clinics Clinics will be set up by the University Health Service on both the Main Street and Amherst cmapuses to vaccinate students. The University has allocated money for the purchase of hypodermic jet-guns which are far more efficient than the- usual_one-shot hypodermic needle. Health Service officials are debating the question of immunizing relatives of staff, faculty, and students free of charge. A new strain of influenza usually develops somewhere on the globe every eight to twelve years. The last major outbreak of flu virus in the United Stateswas during 1968 and 1969, called “Hong Kong A” which was responsible for the deaths of 70,000 lives and cost an estimated 3.8 billion dollars in lost man-hours. The new mutated flu virus obtained its name of “Swine Flu” because it is similar to a virus that is usually only contagious to hogs,' although people who work with swine have been known to be infected. University Health Services Director, Luther Musselman, doubts there will be a flu epidemic this fall. Nevertheless he plans to be immunized purely as a precautionary measure, and strongly recommends that others do the same.

Castillo had worked for the Ministry of Public Works under Allende repairing highways, general doing and bridges maintenance work. He explains that he was just one of 15,000 public employees (out of 40,000) who were fired after the coup for sympathy towards the Allende government. Castillo charged that his trial was a farce, and that he was convicted and sentenced to 17 years in prison. However, due to lack of evidence and international protest agains the repression of civilians, his sentence was reduced to six years. Upon his arrest, he was blindfolded, so “I couldn’t see my was blindfolded.

Political organizations are outlawed, and others, such as unions, have .a very trade precarious existence. Castillo said that thd economy is stagnant and opposition to the government is very widespread. Many working youth were admitted to the universities under Allende, Castillo said, but most have been expelled now. Castillo studied history in night school under this program several years ago. Castillo said that under Allende, wages were raised for most workers, and unemployment was cut sharply. Workers could trade unions and organize participate in progressive political activities against the monopolies with government encouragement. This caused a rise in right-wing activity, Castillo explained, and concerted efforts were made to Unity weaken the Popular economic but put government. their lives,” Castillo concluded, and that is why many workers supported his government.

The Spectrum Page five . �EditPrial TRB Fight Regents proposal The Regents' tentative masterplan .for higher education in New York State continues the folly of formulating a single, interdependent policy for private coMeges and the State University of New York. Its aim is to drive future college students toward private schools by increasing SUNY calling and tuition for an end immediate to new construction. This is a nightmarish policy for the already hardpressed middle income families of the state, and its implementation must be fought tooth and nail This could be one of the rare times in this century when an election opened the way to major social change/ The requirements are three; a President who has a vision of reform: a President amf a' Congress who can work together (presumably of the same party); and an era when major reforms are indicated Such a combination happened in the early years of Woodrow Wilson, of Franklin Roosevelt, Johnson Kennedy-Lyndon the Jack and administration. One of the conditions could be met if the voters in 1976 end the present stalemated split government in Washington. We have almost forgotten what it is to have a President and Congress of the same party, the score was President Ford boasts of his vetoes 56 last week, (f'iixon vetoed only 43 bills in five and a half years). The United States is patient under this stalemate, has almost learned to like it. It would throw any other country into anarchy. SUNY students can be grateful, however, that so far Chancellor Ernest Boyer, the campus presidents and student government representatives have taken a strong, vocal stand against the report. Additionally, students here should take heart at President Robert Ketter's able critique of the report and its possible disasterous consequences for the already lorig-delayed completion of the Amherst campus. Ketter's evaluation of the relation between public and private education was particularly worthy of praise. His questioning between the Regents the two interdependence acceptance of essentially correct; is why halt the development of SUNY, in which so much has already been invested, to offset the effects of a debatable, and at most temporary, drop in enrollment? Why squeeze the middle income families, who still cannot qualify for financial aid resources, just so more will considerysendinjg their children to private schools? Surely solutions must be found to the financial'difficuIties of our private colleges. But "closing the gap" in the cost of public and private higher education is an inhuman as it is extreme. We strongly urge the students and officers of SUNY to persist in their criticism of this misguided policy. We also urge the Regents, “The institutional structure bequeathed to twentieth century America by the eighteenth century is more complex than that of any other democratic country in the world,” writes James L. Sundquist in a new Brookings compendium; “Setting National Priorities: the Next Ten Years.” Political adaptation to technical change in the United States doesn’t flow in an orderly stream; it comes jerkily, in pulses, more often than not depending on the accident of whether President and Congress are in rapport. “For 14 of.the past 22 years, the executive and the legislature have confronted .one another across not only an institutional but also a partisan political gulf," says Sundquist. What he means is that we had Eisenhower for six of eight years with a Democratic Congress, and Nixon-Ford for eight years with a Democratic Congress and only one interval' 1960-68, with one party responsibility. it is universally taken for granted here that the new Congress is going to be. Democratic: will it continue to function with President Ford who delights in vetoing its proposals and who has'taken virtually no domestic initiative of his own, or will it* be working with a President of its own party? In short, will it give Jimmy Carter an opportunity to change things if he can and wants to? Rival Presidents and Congresses can cooperate, of course: Truman fashioned (he Marshall Plan with the hated Republican_80lh Congress, but (hat was in time of crisis; Ike, got on well enough with three Democratic Congresses largely because he didn,’t want to do anything anyway And because the nation was catching its breath after the war. But things genefally are more complicated. There have been glorious spurts of reform and modernization; what is extraordinary is how brief these intervals are. Woodrow Wilson caught up with a generation of lethargy; his first term 6riacted the Federal Reserve System, the revolutionary Underwood Tariff, regulations of big business (Clayton anti-trust. Federal Trade Commission, banking laws); he got an 8-hour day pn railways, excluded . child labor products from interstate commerce, poured out federal aid to highways, put farm agents in every rural country, over-rode states’ rights and directed millions to vocational and agricultural education. It was a bracing period of social catch-up before the gloomy war closed in. Roosevelt’s New Deal, of course, was the second episode. Most of it came in a great leap. The country was in terrible shape and ready for change. Poor Hoover was making statements that sounded very much like {hose today. “This campaign is more than a contest between two meYi,”. said in his wind-up campaign “It is nfore than a contest between parties. It is a contest betweemtwo philosophies of government . . . You cannot extend the mastery of government over the daily life of a people without somewhere making it master of people’s souls and thoughts.” How similar that is to Mr. Ford’s favorite (and irrefutable) warning that a government strong enough to give a nation everything it wants is strong enough to take away everything it has! No one can deny if. It is Mr. Ford’s protest at being jolted ahead too fast. The second great legislative spurt in this country was the New Deal. In a kind of conclusive hurst it gave the country TVA (Hoover had vetoed the Muscle Shoals Bill); the Social Security Act; the National Labor Relations Board (Wagner Act); legislation putting Federal support under the banks, security markets, the farms, and all the rest. Three the legislation preserved the things were implicit capitalistic economy; it was inevitable; it followed the American tradition. Many of the new ideas were old stuff in Furppe and Canada. FDR helped America overcome an immense legislative lag and was, of course, reviled all the way. The third big spurt of this century was the Kennedy-Johnson initial period the Civil Rights Act, Peace Corps, Economic Opportunity Act, floor under poverty, and all the rest. Kennedy was the first to use a budget deficit purposely to cure a slump and gave the nation the largest, expansion in modern times. Congress and White House were of the same party. As happens under our strange divided system, strewn with its vetoes, (committee. House, Senate and White House) all circumstances have to be just right for major forward movement, and then it comes spasmodically, in a Hoover — burst. What’s /' of anything like that happening now? One requirement would be, of course, to have President and Congress of the same party, which means electing Jimmy Carter, which, in this ticket-splitting era, is by no means certain ' despite the polls. The next question is, are changes needed? The answer is, the times cry for them! Welfare is a holy mess; the tax system aches for reform, every other country has governmental registration of voters (the lack of which is one reason for the disgracefully low American-voter turn-out); cities are going down l)ill; hand gun registration shouts for enactment; the growing poverty gap is alarming; 40 percent teen-age black unemployment in the ghettoes means trouble . . . You fill out the list. There’s one other point. Irr that rare concentration of political circumstances, a new President, work to be done, a united government cbuld Jimmy Carter do it? I don’t know. Like yqu.

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief., Republication Page six . defended The Spectrum . Monday, 20 September 1976 I am compelled to reply to a letter to the Editor by Mr. Charlie Goldberg in your September 13 issue entitled “Comparative Banking.” The “rip-off” to which Mr. Goldberg refers apparently has to do with our practice of requiring ten calendar days for clearance of personal checks drawn on a local (Buffalo) bank and 20 calendar days for those drawn on an out of town bank. This practice is applied to all customers in the same manner. U has stood the test of time in reducing risk and internal problems, to a minimum. While it is recognized that personal checks are collected in less than ten days and twenty days, before we, the depositor bank, are notified of an uncollected item by our correspondent bank, it may very well take longer than ten or twenty days. In fact, we have experienced this very thing. However, it is not uncommon for the Manager or Assistant Manager to handle immediate student needs for books, etc., on an exception basis. We try to do our best in this regard without undue risk to the Association. On the subject of free checking, no minimum balance and faster service, I'd like to point out that ‘ being a federally chartered institution, we are prohibited from offering checking accounts in any form by federal statute. Congress may change this in the near future, but until it dpes we must comply with the law. There are no minimum balance requirements for our savings accounts except that balances less than S10 do not earn interest. Please take note that in a day-to-day account your deposits earn interest to the day of withdrawal at the current rate of 5.25% annual, compounded daily, which is more than any commercial bank is permitted to pay by law on a similar Type account (currently the commercial bank maximum is 5.00%). Crediting occurs at the end of each calendar quarter except that in the event of a complete close-out, interest is automaticlaly figured and creditejd to the day of withdrawal, which is another convenience not offered by many institutions in town. We have attempted to improve services by increasing staff and making use of a corral type teller line. If you have experienced delays in service, it may have been during the initial days of registration when we are exceptionally busy. If delays persist, I would be pleased to hear from you. J it seems to me a walk across the street is a pretty good deal which offers .25% on your money for every day it’s on deposit. Very truly yours, Robert W.

There are set fees for all services at the Clinic. These will be discussed with anyone who engages the services of the School of Dentistry. Last year, as a freshman, I could have penned Howard K. Levy’s hate letter in Friday's The Spectrum.' Novi I have either grown cold to this University’s abuse of the student, or this year the situation is somewhat better. I suspect the latter. I spent 20 minutes in line tb buy my textbooks this year, and I was grateful. Last fall it was impossible to walk through the Norton Basement due to bookstore lines. In 1 c >75 the drop-and-add line reached toward Acheson. Last week I stood on line, encountered no closed courses, and left Hayes B within a half hour. 1 was ecstatic. There were virtually no lines for I.D.’s when 1 went, and my 15 minute wait was a fraction of last year’s marathon. Part of the trick is knowing when which lines are shortest. Still, 1 am sure that somehow things are running quicker and more smoothly this fall. American Dreamer Arousing people from the slumber Editors note: "The American Dreamer" reflects on carious themes concerning lifestyle, the earth and society. Walter Simpson is a peace activist and instructor at Rachel Carson College. ' “Call it peace or call it treason, call it love or call it reason,but ! ain’t marching anymore.” The words are from a song Phil Ochs wrote and sang at many anti-war rallies in the 60’s and early 70’s.

Clyde LeGraves. a UB student and a friend of mine, has taken the semester off and is walking to Washington, D.C. Clyde left about two weeks ago when a portion of the Continental Walk went through Buffalo. Eventually, he'll meet walkers from San Francisco and continue with them to our nation's capital. I joined the Walk and accompanied Clyde for three days. For sightseers we were quite a sight! Seven ot us walked along the Boulevard, each carrying a placard. Clyde carried one which read. “Stop Military Waste!" Others read, "Health Care.'Not Warfare and “Stop the Arms Race, Save the Human Race."

Ted Vanderlann Since the hunting season begins anew, a few words must be said in behalf of those at the wrong end of the hunter's gun. Beyond all of the statistical jargon that encompasses the issue of hunting, there remains one simple, undeniable belief, or truth, namely: the right to life. Who has the right to,take away life, be it a man’s or beast's?Conservation rhetoric will not suffice to answer this question. Only moral insight and humane concern can. Nevertheless, the hunting war bfegins October I, Man and beast will die. Animal liberators and vegetarians will scream. Conservationists will, in turn, scream. But a simple truth quietly whimpers in a way that I cringe from it’s deafening sound. Mark Ginsberg H.A.R.C. SCATE is voluntary To the Editor or Due to my inability to meet with your reporter, erroneous information was given and printed in regards to the upcoming student referendums. Work is being done to,review and upgrade the SCATI magazine, but we have no intentions of questioning students if they feel the process should be mandatory or not, SCATI is a voluntary process on the part of the professor, and will continue to be so. Although President (setter has mandated that some form of departmental evaluation is mandatory, we realize the professor, for whatever reason, has the fight- to decide if others should see those evaluations not. We do, however, active encourage participation, and feel that students have the right to see those responses.

People who have different jobs, different IQ’s, different interests, different educations have completed the course. Our graduates are people from all walks of life. These people have all taken a course developed by Evelyn Wood, a prominent educator. Practically all of them at least tripled their reading speed with equal or better comprehension. Most have increased it even more. Think for a moment what that means. All of them—even the slowest—now read an average novel in less than two hours. They read an entire issue of Time or Newsweek in 35 minutes. They don’t skip or skim. They read every word. They use no machines. Instead, Jhey let the material they’re reading determine how fast they read. And mark this well: they actually understand more, remember more, and enjoy more than when they read slowly. That’s right! They understand more. They remember more. They enjoy more. You can do the same thing—the place to learn more about it is at a free speed reading lesson.

Monday, 20 September 1976 . �is hopeful about coming season Golf coach Cross-country Team conquers Geneseo, beginning the new season It was a very young Buffalo golf team that began its season last week, and as one expects of young teams, they have room to improve. One week ago, they lost their first match to St. Bonaventure 401-409. On Thursday, Gannon topped the Bulls 374-386 at the Amherst-Audubon Golf Course in Williamsville. Bulls coach Bill Dando, who has won more than 90 percent of his matches in his five previous yfcars as coach, explained that only one member of last year’s team returned. Two others transferred, while still others did not return for various reasons. “We’re very young,” Dando said, “and we’re playing with unknown quantities.” Because of this, Dando felt the Bulls performed well. “We could beat a lot of teams with those scores,” he said. “We’ve got to get those 80’s out. You can’t win with scores in the 80’s.” Randy Romal, for example, shot an 84 against Gannon, but Dando felt it might have been just a bad day. “Randy’s had a 73 or 74 out here,” Dando noted. Joe Ganucci and John Fanolari also had Scores in the eighties against Gannon which Dando hopes will drop. The only returning player is Mike Hirsch, who was also one of Bulls top golfers last year. Hirsch logged a team best three over par 73 against Gannon, and his 80 at St. Bonaventure was' second on the Bulls by Ronhy Oppenheimer Spectrum Staff Writer The Buffalo cross-country team, under the auspices of rookie coich Walter Gantz, opened its season last Wednesday with an impressive 24—33 victory over Geneseo State. It was an inspiring event for Gantz’ young team who promise to develop and “improve with age like a mellow wine,” as the coach put it. Mike Fischer, from Bishop Newman and Williamsville, was the personal victor of the race, coasting around the picturewque course of wood and hill in a time of 33 minutes and 13 seconds. Bob Howard finished third twelve seconds later, just beating out the kick of one of Geneseo’s strong finishers. Overkll the Bulls took six of, the top ten places, all with times under thirty-six and one-half minutes. The race began quickly as the runners rounded the mile marker with freshman Chris Lehman leading with a time of 5;02. Five of the next six runners were 6ulls, all with sub-six minute miles. By the time they reached the second mile of the six-mile course the lead had changed, but not the pace. Fischer led the pack with a time of 10:t)5. to Perry Novak’s 79. Dando was still optimistic al out the remainder of the season, figuring that the yourlger players vould improve with experience over the long schedule. The Bulls pla eleven matches, in addition to the EC AC qualifying tournament and the EC AC Championships. The coach also issued a call for more golfers, saying it’s not too late to come out for the team. ‘*I’m willing to give anyone a look,” he said. “There are probably a lot of good golfers out there who don’t think they’re good enough to make the teim.” , ' Weak finish The runners now headed into the woods, but the pattern of the race was set. They jogged around the Amherst Campus past Sweet Home High School, past the finish line and around the woods once more before coming in Tor the home stretch. This was the Bulls’ weakest point. Only Gantz, a marathoner himself, having run the last five Boston Marathons, will have to work at finishing strong if the team is to improve. Fischer finished fairly strongly, but Howard barely staved off his pursuer. Tom Pitchford, another young runner, was edged out for the eighth place on an amazing kick by Geneseo’s Tony Foumichella. Geneseo coach Marty Kettner’s ga O'Connor's Mobil Service 614 Millersport —John squad finished strongly, but the'Bulls’ lead was too great. (comer of Eggert) ' After it was over, the elated coach said, “It’s obvious to me that these men ran extremely hard. The times were extra good, especially for this time of the year. The guys look like they ran their hearts out and they ran all six miles. The other team was a good team and it was a very close race and I’m proud the men were able to display the determination and guts that were needed to win. 1 ’ Hgwy. mobil 10% U.B.

The Spectrum . Page nine �Sportspaige the issue, “Why?” by Paige Milter Sports Editor Another referendum? 1 thought that was settled last year, and the year before that. One has to question the timing of the current referendum. During each of the t\vo years, there had been previous something of a movement on once because try to bring back football of the efforts of Charles Ciotta, who has since disappeared into anonymity, and last because of the campus sports paper Bullpen. Each of those efforts failed, so why does the Student Association (SA) think there will be a change now? This year there has not been' the slightest mention of football around the gym or anywhere else, as far as I know. Suddenly, SA is holding a referendum on What’s this? should-we-have-football — and one has to ask, again, Paperwork Does the SA really want to know if see football back? people would like Have they been deluged with letters supporting football? I doubt it. SA is usually deluged with letters, supporting apathy, if nothing else. Or does SA simply want to cause trouble for itself? According to Student Athletic Review Board Chairman Dennis Delia, the paperwork that would be necessary under TitllX regulations would be enormous (and ludicrous), should the referendum pass. Next semester, every student would have to fill out a preference questionnaire in order to register. This questionnaire would have to ask (under law) such absurd questions as, "Should we have a women’s football team, in addition to the men’s to. team?” With 14,000 students replying, SA would be deluged with paperwork. Then, there is the problem that only a very few people would vote, whereas a random survey of the students would provide a more representative answer. games at the MemorialAuditorium. It certainly dan’t be the case that there s nothing to do on an autumn Saturday. (One popular game among dorm students goes like this; first, everyone sits around and plays “Let’s get high.” Then, the guys play “Boy, am I horny,” while the girls play, “Boy, am 1 not.”) Money shortage All of this ignores the fact that football approximately $25,000 for No reason costs money Seriously, Buffalo’s soccer team plays one year and that has to come from quite often this fall on Saturdays (and somewhere. The SA budget is already tnany other days, as well).

The team registered its first win of the new campaign, and Coach Tom LaPenna scored his maiden victory as the new coach of the men’s tennis squad. The match versus Niagara was decided early. The Bulls were intent on pciking up their first win against three tough losses. (The third loss was against powerful Rochester, which crushed Buffalo by a score of 9-0.) The final score of the contest was 6-3, ahd as LaPenna predicted, his mainstays on the team came through. Buffalo’s Bill Cose, who was playing first singles for the second consecutive semester, demolished his opponent by scores of 6—0, 6—0, while Camptain Rob Burbacki, the second singles man, also dominated his opponent, winning two sets 6-1, 6-1. Later in the afternoon, the two victors combined in a doubles match which was never really in doubt The score was 6—1, 6—0, with the Buffalo men on top again. Jack Kaminski, playing third singles for the Bulls, also made LaPenna proud. Kaminski won his Two match soundly by scores of 6—3 and 6—0. Kaminski and Baughn also proceeded to parlay their skills in a doubles match. The combination of their talents blended perfectly as they took their contest' by scores .of 6—3, 7—6. Coach is overjoyed After being beaten so badly by Rochester, the Bulls came to the match with high hopes. The men from Niagara were out-played, out-hustled and out-psyched. The first and second- singles from Niagara were handled by Cole and Burbacki, which prompted LaPenna to remark about Cole: He s the most beautiful player to watch. His form is so smooth and perfect that, it tends to relax the spectators.” Overall, it was an impressive and satisfying win for LaPenna and his athletes, who finally got into the plus column. LaPenna was ecstatic about the victory, stating, “It feels just great to get my first I win]as a huge grin came across his face.

Only Joseph Williams, formerly director and one of three office counselors, still services foreign students. “The office has been completely decentralized,” said Williams. "Students now have to help from a variety of get sources.” Instead of receiving assistance from *a central office, foreign students must now visit a different campus agency with each problem. Williams contends that this method is “inefficient for the student” because the various campus offices “do not know the total student.” He added that the cutbacks have caused a general feeling of disappointment in many of the older foreign students. Assertiveness training Insecure? Timid? Meek ? Now there is help on the wap salesmen is not as practical outside the realm of comic strip life. by John.Hess Spectrum Staff Writer never say no,” one often hears. it is murmured about food or recreation. However, more often than not, the circumstance is a social one, one human being afraid to speak out against others. Recently a number of programs have branched out to rectify this situation; assertiveness training teaches one to say no. The Assertiveness Training Program at this University offers undergraduate students the chance to learn how to integrate assertive skills into their behavior. Applying “different treatment modalities,” the training is pragmatically oriented, trying to touch the immediate lives of the participants in common conflicts and social situations. The program, led by Lelise Amstein, is conducted free of charge and specifically geared for men and women between the ages of eighteen and twenty-eight. The training tries to> teach the unassertive person how to “cOpe.” The student whose hand quiveringly hesitates in the lecture hall when a point needs clarification, the girlfriend who grinds her teeth on certain remarks and inferences rather than voice protest, the shopper that will keep a defective item rather than going.through the hassle of returning it these all suggest non-assertive behavior. “I can Occasionally - Basic rights But assertive behavior concerns itself more with a person’s rights. A classic example of the three behaviors can be found in that opening week of school; after waiting in a line for an hour and a half, students begin to discover a new form they haven’t mqch less heard of. Non-assertive filled out people, reaching the front of the line, would perhaps turn away when they learned of their error. Perhaps they would ask a vague question, feel a bit self-conscious, and curse themselves later on for not gaining the necessary information. Aggressive students in the identical situation would insist that somehow they be compensated for the long wait; their face might grow red and in an increasingly loud voice they might demand to get the business taken care of. Threats might be shouted. These students would be persistent; even if they must ask a question twice, they would not feel out of place because they would know they were getting the information correctly. Assertive students would know they deserve directions, and would thus take advantage of their rights. Inappropriate legislative action Vice President for Student Affairs Richard Siggelkow said the OFSA “was eliminated by an Joseph Williams service from the the dorm, and are provided with activities, parties and an orientation program. foreign ' On-campus student has been virtually housing unaffected.

The meekness may be ability to act assertively.” However, she stressed that manifested in meek behavior or in overreacting. once in the program, it is still the responsibility of There’s a type of anger in the over-reacting person the student to try to act assertively.

The director asserts that striving for the ideal Aggressive behavior, in contrast to assertive can be comfort enough for the individual. “The behavior, is limited in its ability to really alleviate person may not always achieve his/her sometimes assertive and problems, creating uncomfortable isn’t always as meaningful as unpleasant situations in personal encounters.

Moynihan and Buckley victors in state primary by Daniel Parker Spectrum Staff Writer Former Ambassador to the United Nations Daniel Patrick Moynihan narrowly defeated Congresswoman Bella Abzug of Manhattan by a 36 to 35 percent margin in Tuesday’s primary election. Pending an official recount of the vote tally, Moynihan will /ace incumbent Senator James Buckley in the November election. Buckley easily defeated Representative Peter Peyser of Irvington for the Republican nomination. Moynihan, who served in the Kennedy, Nixon and Ford administrations, became widely known for his staunch support of Israel while ambassador to the UN. Abzug had stressed the idea that, “It’s time a woman served in the Senate.” Three / other candidates (former Attorney General Ramsey Clark; Paul O’Dwyer, New York City Council President; and self-made businessman Abe Hirschfeld) split the remainipg vote with Clark in getting a slight edge over the other two contestants. Mudslinging The turnout for . the primaries was as expected, with approximately 25 percent of the registered Democratic voters and 15 percent of the registered Republicans exercising their rights. The basic similarities -between the candidates led to “mudslinging” rather than actual debating of issues. Because of similar views on the issues, the candidates were often seeking votes from the same groups. On the last day of the campaign, both Moynihan and Abzug were campaigning in the garment center of New York City seeking the “Jewish vote.” According to a poll taken by the New York Times, 40 percent of women voting preferred Abzug and 30 percent preferred Moynihan. received major newspapers, endorsements from large Moynihan getting the backing of The New York Times, while Abzug received the endorsement of the New York Post. The candidates ran neck and neck in New York City and its surrounding suburbs with Moynihan receiving a slight edge upstate. In Erie County, where Moynihan received endorsement of Erie County the Chairman Joseph Democratic Party Crangle, Abzug surprised the experts with an upset win. Both Candidates comments Both Moynihan and Abzug aroused sentiments by changing public positions. Moynihan stated he would not seek the Senatorial ■ nomination’ after his strong pro-Israel stand and resignation from the UN. Abzug said she would not support Moynihan if he won the senatorial nomination. Abzug’s comment could have cut severely into her chances, causing O’Dwyer supporters to vote for Moynihan in hope of preventing another split election 1970. The Democratic Party, like presently, is not unified in New York State. * During the campaign, Moynihan called for “an American society worth defending with strong domestic, military and foreign policy.” Abzug proposed “more than $5 billion in new federal programs for New York State and thousands of new jobs.” Clark favored restoring “integrity in government” and O’Dwyer ran on his record of civil rights, labor and concern for Israel and Ireland.

I expect to see a good deal of the students,” he concluded. Spectrum Thomas Headrick, former Academic Affairs Vice President at Lawrence University, has been appointed dean of the Law School here, filling the vacancy left by Richard Schwartz who Dr. resigned the post last year. In explaining his acceptance of the post, Headrick said, “I have attracted by the Law School here.” “More than any other school in the country, this school has a chance to be an excellent school, a distinctive school,” he said, citing its interdisciplinary program as orte of its strongest assets. Overcrowded classes Headrick was an assistant dean at Stanford University Law School in California from 1967 to 1970 where in addition to his administrative duties, he taught an undergraduate course on urban riots and the legal system. Prior to that he wbrked as a management consultant in London, a practicing lawyer in San Prancis«> and as a law clerk for a Supreme Xkmrt Judge in the state of Washing*4ft.

Courses in the program include Introduction to Law and ihe Legal Process, The Legal Problems of Public Schools; Women and the Law, and Freedo'm of Expression., Recently the program has been scaled down due to the shortage of faculty.

He must make sure the machinery operates well,” Headrick said. Regarding interaction with students, Headrick pointed out that as vice president for Academic Affairs at Lawrence University, he had a great deal of himself to the Addressing problem of overcrowded classes, he said, “There are some classes which are just too big." He cited rise in the rapid student enrollment and the corresponding slower rate of faculty growth as the cause Headrick outlined a new for third year law students where, they are given an opportunity to supplement their classroom studies with first-hand program working experience.

The drive, chaired by CAC Assistant. Director Carolyn McGuffog, featured a desk in Norton staffed by CAC activity coordinators. CAC involves about 1500 volunteers annually. The program offered this year i§ “unique because of the diversity of services to the Buffalo offered community,” reports Director Drew Mendoza. AH CAC members, including without stipends. The average volunteer puts in at least four hours a week. This translates into over 6000 voluntary person hours a week in the various projects CAC undertakes, Mendoza said. In spite of this record, CAC took a 33 percent cut in funding this year, one of the largest percentage cuts of any Student Association (SA) funded organization. Even with these limitations, CAC is planning new programs this semester. Students from the Black Student Union (BSU) will be involved in CAC projects. Mendoza felt this program will serve a dual function; not only will it aid BSU in its community involvement, but it will also facilitate communication among SA .funded organizations. In the past, CAC has worked with other student organizations, including PODER and Legal Aid. New programs CAC'is initiating projects in the area of legal welfare. They are sponsoring a Pen-Pal program with inmates at Attica Stale Prison, which, according to Coordinator Richard Berlin, will require a two year commitment on the part of the volunteer. The program will also involve visits to the inmate. The Legal Welfare projects also include a tutorial program with a downtown Buffalo Halfway House, which will offer a high school equivalency diploma and limited college courses. Activities include chess and planned basketball games with Attica inmates, programs with Youth House clients, and a tutorial program for Attica inmates. The Social Action program, to Co-coordinator according Sandy Greer, deals with social issues too often dropped after a period of heavy initial publicity. Programs located at the West’ Side Civic Center dealing with Food Stamps and Housing and Welfare information are conducted as part of the social action program. A new project fof the Social Action Corps is the formation of a “Women’s Awareness Alliance,” an alternative forum on an academic and community level.

He -toured China extensively in 1971, and had much. to say on the success of the revolution and the important issues facing China.

William Hinton, a respected “China expert,” and a socialist, lived in China for more than ten years until 1947, much of that time in the areas liberated by the Communist armies during World War II. In 1949 he authored the book Fanshen, describing the first early steps toward creating the new society in a peasant village. He has since written other books, especially on the Cultural agriculturally. The ‘two line’ struggle The lecture quickly zeroed in on what Hinton described as the central issue during the Cultural Revolution, and through the recent leadership shake-ups that have occurred in China. He described what he called the “two line” struggle that is behind every dispute and confrontation in China. On the one hand are the advocates both among the people and withih the Communist Party of the philosophy and policies that will eventually lead to the reestablishment of capitalism in China, as the Chinese contend has occurred in the Soviet Union. On the other hand are those forces behind policies that will keep China on the road to socialism. To illustrate this, Hinton ' spoke in detail on the struggle in the. agricultural schools he inspected, an area in which, as a graduate of Cornell Agricultural School, he is Change in U.S. view of China a tribute to Mao by Rob Cohen Campus Editor theory? Conflicts often subtle In China, this continual “two line” struggle is the nickname for the struggle between classes that very evidently did not end with the revolution. When it gets down to the nitty-gritty, of course, the issues are not so clear cut. In socialist China it is not easy to take openly capitalist positions, thereby making most conflicts quite subtle. In part because of this, these conflicts are often depicted disputes as mere between individuals vying for power. And it is true that individuals are put into and out of power but the basis for this strife can be more logically seen as the struggle between the majority of peasants and against workers the burgeoning careerist and bureaucratic class, who have the former landlords and capitalists as their allies. Though their numbers far, are far fewer, their organizational ability, and the positions of. influence that they hold give them disproportionate — knowledgeable. „ First, who will lead the schools? Workers and peasants, or intellectuals and bureaucrats, specially trained for this career? The former leads to a socialist college working for the interests of working and peasant people; the latter leads to a bureaucratic school, run in the interests of a careerist elite, the iiew7 ruling power. Hinton stressed that this is the situation in every aspect of class. will these agricultural colleges be located, and therefore indirectly, who will . In (hey best serve? the countryside, allowing easy access to the reality of the land and the peasants? Or in the city, isolated and distant from the subject matter, and from those who should be taught, the peasants? Second, . Fear and loathing The curtain rose in Peking revealing an ebullient Nixon and stately Mao toasting to the everlasting friendship of the American and Chinese peoples, all exultant an in culminating communique in which the United States vowed to resolve the premiere obstacle to complete normalization of diplomatic Fourth, and very crucial, will or politics be in command will pure technical ability be stressed, or the level of political consciousness and willingness to serve the people, as well as technical ability? Fifth, will work and study be combined, or will studying be isolated from work? In other words, will theory be isolated from practice, and will mental work be separated from manual work, as in the West? Sixth, will this education be equally available to the working and peasant-wffSpring, who have not been so well prepared as the offspring of former rich peasants, landlords captialists? and Basically, will education be available to all in fact as well as in technique — News commentary It is truly remarkable how American leaders and commentators on the international scene, who just ten years ago viewed Chairman Mao Tse Tung as a monstrous Communist tyrant, are now lauding him in an endless stream of superlatives, as one of the few giants of the twentieth century. Abhorrence, it seems, has given way to adulation. What, one may ask, ' has on this sudden brought exoneration of the deceased revolutionary or, if you may, “Chinese patriarch”? The obvious answer is of course the watershed Sino-American rapproachment, which ironically enough was that most engineered by intractable of purveyor anti-Communist hysteria, Richard Milhous Nixon. The above probably gives too much credit to the diplomatic skill of our much maligned former President, for it was Mao who was the ultimate mastermind of this dramatic diplomatic coup. Once internal stability was restored after the great upheavals of the Cultural Revolution, China decided to emerge from the darkness and once again join the international community. Ever wary of Soviet belligerency, a perspicacious, pragmatic Mao realized that he needed a friendly United States to counterbalance Soviet designs. The preconditions for a thaw, as Henry Kissinger might say, “were at hand.” paying positions in agri-business. where — Wn relations between the two powers: Taiwan. This promise has yet to be fulfilled. In any qise, with this act, twenty-five years of mutual antipahty were eased. The fear and loathing which redounded from United States support of Chiang-Kai Shiek’s Nationalist faction during the Chinese .Civil War were forgotten following a bitter Korea conflict in (1951—53). This situation of course, nearly reached the boiling when a cantankerous point Douglas MacArthur advocated the nuclear liberation of a “lost China” while nearing the banks of the Yalu River which divides North Korea and China. Phenomenal changes Only in the last five years have we fully comprehended the phenomenal changes Mao has wrought in- China. A destitute, the famine-ridden country — of helpless pawn parasitic has been imperialists transformed into a viable world which power, even more importantly is capable of feeding itself. The Chinese have emerged with a renewed and a prideful identity, with a strong sense of autarchial independence often bordering on xenophobia. In short, Mao has restored China to its rightful place in the world. But why was the United Stated totally incapable of seeing Mao and the People’s Republic in this light, twenty or even thirty years ago? Was it just acute myopia or was it a dogged refusal to face the truth? It was probably a two, combination of the complicated by China’s enigmatic nature which had all along prevented us from seeing what was really going on in this monolithic nation. Third, where will the graduates of these colleges go? Back to the community from which they develop came, to further production there, or will they go on to management positions in the agricultural enterprises, as they do here in the United States, where farm communities are abandoned by the knowledgeable youth who have left for high life in China cultural, medical and industrial. He declared, however, that this great conflict began and continues in the schools of China because within the educational system lies China’s future: her children. Hinton ended his lecture to take questions, and there was great applause in which he took part. Just after, he explained that in China the tradition is to applaud the entire affair, and thus the speaker claps as well. He said that at another university the student newspaper, misunderstanding, declared: Hinton applauds himself. This elicited quite a laugh from the crowd, as did his numerous other — —continued on page 19 — •■■■Hear 0 Israel** For gems from the Jewish Bible Phone 875-4265 There IS a • .GMAT • MCAT »CPAT • difference!!!

Short run . I loiter i’ luliior \vriimg in ivsponsvfb scheduling concerning ;im Mr. David Ruhin s with problems management courses. Mr. Rubin is correct in slating that students in the School of Management are faced with scheduling difficulties. There simply is no doubt that .students in management arc unable to take courses whenever or w herever they wish, nor do they have unlimited selection of instructors. Since this is as meaningless as staling I lull mosl of us experience constrained choice.among alternatives in our work lives. I would like to provide some background on Ibis problem. The School's .scheduling of courses is complicated by: (i) unusually high student demand l l)76-76 enrollments generated a 2/.1 student faculty ratio; (ii) in order to meet student needs, management majors are allowed to begin their programs in September. January or June, thereby necessitating the ottering of basic courses in more than one semester SOM normally oflers\l 10-1 20 sections per semester: (iii) in response to student career needs we have a large number of graduate and undergraduate concentrations and options, each involving specific course'seqwences; (iv) accreditation standards have forced a reduction in class size, which we hope and believe is reflected in the quality of educational experiences given no increases in instructional resources, this would normally result in a reduced number of elective courses; (v) a shortage of faculty lines given student demand for courses; (vi) a reduction in our staff advisory personnel due to budget reductions; (vii) a university that allocates new budgeting process faculty positions so late in the recruiting year that to fill an posted outside the student affairs office (rm. 151 Crosby) as soon as they, are received by undergraduate or graduate advisors; (ii) almost all required courses are offered both in fall and spring semesters ' no student will be unable to graduate due to sections being "closed out;” (iii) with considerable reluctance, we have severely curtailed enrollments by non-majors in any management course, and have reduced the number of majors accepted for entrance into our program by approximately 20% (non-accepted students with 01* V of 2.4 to 2.7 no doubt feel this is an unreasonable tradeoff); (iv) with the /extensive cooperation of faculty members, we have force registered any major with a compelling need for a particular section of a course (i.e., excluding as justification /preferences for particular instructors, particular times due to employment desires, specific sections in order to create “free” or “easy” days, etc.): (v) the support staff in our student affairs office has been revised in order to provide more effective guidance on scheduling problems; and (vi) restricted faculty latitude in rescheduling in order to create “better schedules.” In essence, what we have attempted to do is maximize the number of section different educational alternatives for all students number of different courses) while minimizing the inconveniences generated by a reduced number of duplicate sections (i.e., multiple sections of the same course offered at different times or by different instructors). I realise that nothing said up to this point will completely relieve feelings of anger, disappointment and frustration experienced by students affected by schedule changes. Unfortunately, the School does not have the luxury of implementing what students open, position often means hiring faculty with other view as the ideal solution to these problems (i.e., the than anticipated areas of expertise and contrary to addition of sufficient staff to offer all the sections not 'completely justified by student demand). Instead, in the short ■economic theory, faculty are (viii) substituteable or interchangeable; a scheduling run, in order to maximize flexibility for most process that requires assignment of faculty (who we students some individuals will continue to be may never be authorized"!o hire) to courses at least affected by schedule changes.

This is a new paperback edition of one of Mr. Leiber's most popular works. A 1965 Hugo Award winning novel. That says about all that is'necessary. But, since fendom represents a minority of the population, I must, explain: The Wanderer is the story of what happens to forty-four men, eleven women, two aliens (one male, one female), one green-eyed green Persian cat, and one black-and-gbld German Shepherd dog when another Earth-sized planet, the wanderer, appears in the Earth-Moon system. If this story could be properly translated in(to a screenplay, it would be the ultimate disaster movie; the Wanderer's gravity and magnetic fields wreak havoc all over the world. Tides reach more than five hundred feet, earthquakes cause great tsunamis even larger than the tides, and, all the while, people watch the Wanderer as its rotation brings its different surface patterns into sight: Tyrannosaurus Rex, Wolf Jaws, a mandala, a Maltese cross, the yin-yang, a "D/ nestled, like a trademark, in a "C", a Needle's Eye, and, what observers call a Moon Eater. Throughout the book the two leading protagonists, Margo and Paul, often make references to familiar works of science fiction, and their popular creators. Margo defends her decision to bring her cat. Miaow, to the observatory, for instance, by reminding Paul that his own "god" Heinlein (Robert A.), extolled cats as second-class citizens, equal to aborigines and fellhin. More, the battle between the Wanderer and the Stranger sounds very much like, as the audience remarks, a fight scene clipped from an E.E. "Doc" Smith novel. It is exhilerating to see science fiction fen in a novel, instead of the boring mundane types we usually see trying to cope with a science fiction plot. Thank you very much, Mr Leiber! —Linda Ruth Pfonner Linda Ruth Pfonner is a U.B. undergraduate and a member of the Science Fiction Club. "Fen", she explains, is science fiction argot for "fans", the singular of which originated sometime in the forties as "faan." Very often such terms are invented for the sake of compression or convenience (ie.,"Streck" for "Star Trek"), but "fen" and "Fendom" ,she says, are, merely for exotic effect. & dePahna's craftsmanship shows through'Obsession' by Bill Maraschiello present all the same. Arts Editor Michael Courtland (Cliff Robertson) is gripped by an Obsession with a young Italian girl who uncannily resembles his late wife, killed in a kidnap attempt. Director Brian dePalma has an obsession of his own: Alfred Hitchcock, whose unmistakeable style dePalma has so meticulously copied that it all but obliterates any traces of his own directorial identity. DePalma's first films were- all comedies: Greetings and Hi, Mom!, two scattershot pastiches loosely linked to the Vietnam war protests, and Get To Know Your Rabbit, wherein an executive forsakes the rat race for the life of a tap-dancing magician. The premise of the latter, in its almost pathological craziness, indicates the kind of purely insane glory that often surfaced in these early works, despite their lack of coherence and control; then again, who'd be foolish enough to expect coherent madness? What carries the film above all, though, is the contributions of photographer Vilmos Szigmond, composer Bernard Herrmann (the aforementioned Cliff Robertson's albums), Hitchcock and Szimond's camera captures the performance. sensuous feel of Florentine architecture and statuary and New Orleans mansions with a rich, lush eye. Herrmann, of course, is a proven master (besides his work with Hitchcock, he scored Citizen Kane): his score is so powerful, in fact, that it overshadows the film itself at times when the onscreen action grows limp.

The greatest objections are liable to come from those who resent dePalma's apprenticeship to the Master of Suspense.

It gives particular urgency to the play's beauty and its sadness by means of a brilliant metadramatic conception: the actress (Jessica Tandy) who plays both Hippolyta and Titania, metamorphoses as well into the figure of Elizabeth I herself, and the entire play is presented as an entertainment offered to her.

The lines are those of a magic spirit, yet this figure is obviously devoid of any magicial powers, obviously without authority or there standing control, pathetically in his fool's outfit. The magic of the evening has ended, is dismissed backwards into the experience of the play even more forcefully than Puck's lines themselves do in an ordinary production. And as he walks final slowly off, the metomorphosis of the evening comes onstage: a washerwoman, who had earlier been Titania's First Fairy. She "scrubs" the final spotlight off the stage as the houselights come up, and she continues to sweep the now bare platform as the audience flies out. What Phillips has realized and dramatized so powerfully is that the magic and beauty of this play or, in fact, of any theatrical cannot be pinned experience down to the objects which were their source. The play is beautiful precisely because it is ephemeral. Shakespeare knew this and had Puck suggest that what we have witnessed is the same as a passing dream. Robin Phillips simply carries'it farther. Step by step, he strips the magic from the objects in which it has inhered.

People relax over their wine, cheese and fruit at the Tralfamadore. As drummer Ron Davies absorbs himself in a solo, two figures work through the crowd, and settle to the left of the stage. Neiwood picks up the melody line and, as the audience applauds, one of the figures squeezes in close for a full frame of the saxaphonist. An abstract background painting reflects the musical mode as Niewood leads the band through an interesting melodic exploration. Relaxed.

It's at 8:30 Sunday night at Marshall Court on the Amherst Campus (between Wilkeson and Fargo Quads at the Ellicott Complex). London, holder of the record lor the most UUAB Coffeehouse in three years), earned his nickname with jazzy, hot-lick renditions of "Lady Be Good", "Roly Poly", "Gimme That Wine (Unhand That Bottle)", and other swingtime hits.

A newly formed group whose first album was recently issued on Britain's Polydor label, they've been creating a sensation in the British Isles with their versions of traditional Irish rfiusic. On vocals and instrumentals, the band's six members accompany themselves on fiddle, flute, pennywhistle, guitar, clavinet, bozouki (a long-necked mandolin), and Uillean pipes, the traditional Irish bagpipe; it'd be worth a trip to see them just to hear the pipes, if you never have before.

As on Chuck Mangione's albums, the members alternately set the rhythm and melody, leaving the rest of the band free to expand on same. But, whereas Mangione soars from mellow lows to incredible highs with different beats, Neiwood maintains the middle with consistent, quick rhythms. Dave Samuals, the vibraphone player, starts off a set with a pleasant solo, leading up to Neiwopd’s entrance on clarinet, accurately timed and executed. Well versed on many instruments, Gerry begins with an interesting variation on the beat, showing once again the influence of his time spent with C.M. And he certainly isn't want for talent with his new band. All members work well together, producing extremely unified music. Even the pieces played from sheet music seem to lack little in the way of spontaneity. These selections include original works by Samuals, also "Timeless" and "Ralph's Piano Waltz" by John Abercrombie. Adopting a flute, Neiwood lets go with a free from composition, allowing each member to expand the musical territory to vast extents. During this interlude Jeff Berlin, a fine bass player recently added to the group, comes up with a chord/plucked solo which illustrates his technical artistry all of which-leads us back to the original melody line, to the end. A little bebop now, a tune by Jack Byard from the falls, entitles "Ah, Sweet Mystery of Bird." The rubber feet supporting the vibes must -have been tapping with everyone else's. After the last selection, some self-centered members of the audience resorted to boos to persuade Niewood to do an encore. It can only be hoped that, as their criteria for musical value changes, they will find more appropriate methods of coercion. Regardless, the band obliged with a song by Rick Laird, taken from their new album. The tune, "Soft Focus", must remain vivid in the mind of a fuzzed audience, potentially a catalyst for the album's sales. That it reflects Mangione's style-is an indicator of the influence and understanding of both musician's expertise. And that was it.

Then, when the play is over, we return tp our own world, and leave the theatre as isolated individuals. I have never seen a production which so effectively embodied and utilized the relationship between identity and theatrical experience as this one does.

Although members, I have it from reliable sources that American Flyer includes veterans from Pure Prarie League and Blood, Sweat, and Tears, and Poco's talented Rusty Young guests on the same album. This all makes very little difference, because it has little effect on what is in the grooves. Buckacre is a guitar band, and seems to be ashamed of it. "Red Wine" is the only song which attempts to assault the listener, and the effect is analogous to getting whipped with a wet noolde. There ale no extremes on the album, good or bad.

In fact, if one took out the vocals and added more orchestration, a few cuts would be prime material for WBNY ('"All music. All the time".). The key word is mellow. Where is the hook? If your clock-radio tried to wake you up with this album, you would miss all your morning classes. The title cut is respectfully true to its name and the picture on the jacket; serene. The band may be hustling for some emotion, even some picture on tears, on this cut, but don'tfeel bad if you can't oblige. The "Morning Copies" looks more like a sunset, and the entire album seems to say "Goodnight". A welcome change between Buckacre and American Flyer is the addition of a keyboard player. At first the album shows promise of getting out of the rut that Buckacre fell into; producing a mixture of country, folk, and rock and not knowing which to rely on. But in establishing a more concrete style or musical theme. Flyer lands on easily be someone else's territory; a majority of the cuts could mistaken for Ronstadt material. Exceptions are few, but are nice vocals surprises. "Lady Blue Eyes" attracts attention with its distant guitar. the also "M" replaces rhythm and the Fender Rhodes which to listening are not realize you you makes breaks the monotony, "Heart Like a Wheel" or "Prisoner in Disguise". Side Two offers a quartet of numbers that produce the sensation of having heard it all before. One of these songs is at best terribly out of place in this collection. "Queen of All My Days" has the Jamaican beat of "Mamaloi" from "Toulouse Street" or Dylan's "Mozambique". I dislike the song altogether, but it is especially uncomfortable in this already-confused melting pot of folk-rock-country-western. "Call Me, Tell Me", which is almost as heavily-orchestrated as "M", breaks out of seemingly the syndrome somewhat. It is a sweet, fairly happy song, stolen from a soundtrack as the cowboy gallops off (on his horse) to find his woman, smiling and thinking of getting laid. <‘End of a Live Song" is the end of the album, a 52-second pseudo-classical instrumental which is as much out of place in this collection as Jimmy Page playing for Olivia Newton John. There must be a purpose for this short piece, but I'm not losing sleep over it. The lyrics on both albums are as mediocre as the music. There are no significant social comments or profound love songs, but the words lyrics are not do fit well into the feeling and style of the songs.

Friday, 17 September'1976 INCORPORATED 65535 digal Sun ��RECORDS Jon Anderson, Olias of Sunhillow (Atlantic) The release of Jon Anderson's Olias of Sunhillow last July closed a door on a minor era in Yes history. All Yessoids could breathe a sigh of relief: the band had no intention of breaking up, nor did any member plan a solo career; in fact, they now .felt (and feel) closer 1 Ss a group than they had for the last two years. While Yes as a total band is far greater than the sum of. their individual projects, they are still, important for two reasons: showing both the musical influences of the members as well as their respective roles in the group. , Jon Anderson, for example, is obviously the band's leader "mentor" may be more accurate. Olias of Sunhillow sounds more like a Yes album than any of its solo predecessors; it even sounds more like a Yes album than Relayer. This would be fine if it were reminiscent of something like Close to the Edge thus giving talent-starved Yes fans a recording worth waiting for. Unfortunately, Olias sounds more like Tales from Topographic Oceans with far eastern overtones/ capturing most of its aimlessness and pomposity, although (thankfully) little of its lethargy. Olias is, quite predictably, a concept album, but one more lucid than anything Anderson Has written before. The plot is simple; the planet Sunhillow is dying, and it is up to the wizard Olias to build a ship (another to transport its peoples to earth. wizard) guides^them to the ship, and Rahyart pilots the ship to its destination. On the way to earth, discord develops among the peoples, and is calmed by Olias (with music, of course). After the — ... completion of the journey, the three wizards "again become one with the universe and drift away towards the sun." The music is Correspondingly less complex, considering what a member of Yes could have done. Anderson said that Olias is truly-, a solo recording, because he wrote the whole thing, produced it and played most of the instruments as well. This last feat is particularly notable, especially to those (like myself) who thought his abilities were limited to singing and occasionally beating a tambourine. Admittedly, the instrumeatal array is not extremely varied, but his talent on the synthesizer, acoustic guitar, sitar and several percussives is still mildly surprising. For an album by someone noted for lyrical skill, Olias of Sunhillow contains a considerable number of instrumental passages, which are the main cause of its downfall. Jon Anderson is not a very adept songwriter, his compositions tending to be rather unidimensional and repetitive without the lyrics, (have you ever tried to imagine "Your Move" without words?) The instrumentals, such as "Ocean Song'' and "Qoquaq En Transic", constitute so much filler, making it difficult to concentrate on the near gems ("Naon", "To the Runner") embedded within. But listening to Olias of Sunhillow is nonetheless a pleasant pasttime, and it shows Anderson as more than just a pretty voice. It also proves that, contrary to popular expectation, he would have little future, as a solo artist. —Eugene Zielinski Linda Ronstadt, Hasten Down the Wind (Asylum Records) I've believed that Linda Ronstadt had artistically peaked with the album Heart Like A Wheel for some time now. No album since then, including the latest release. Hasten Down the Wind, comes close to dealing with Linda's powerful, but sensitive, sensuality. Incongruous with this real sensuality, Linda, along with various singers, never escapes the cradling, coddling, sexist promotion through which Madison Avenue chokes her. Whereas Emmylou Harris shoots coke to portray her svelte femininity and Tanya Tucker squeezes her "voluptuous" body with skin-tight, bragging garb, the Ronstadt sexual image is as soft and sweet as it is lucid. This is fiction, and the image derives from her 'sensuality', which is true. Nowhere is this present to a greater extent than on "Hasten Down The Wind. The myth of the ballad that envisions lovesick blues and grail-like searches for logic to the i(logic of love philosophy yields empathic consequence. It's more surreal than the typical country, "Muh dog dahd last night, and muh CB radio has been repossessed;You left me in debt and ah got those credit card blues again./Lord you're a mother trucker and every Smokey the Bear has been 10-4d by you, you porcupine sucker." Y'all know wut ah mean? Linda's tfocal clarity is somewhat smothered of Peter Asher's production throughout the new LP. "Asher vnploys orchestras, conductors, choirs and too many obscure and needless instruments of percussion which he himself 'plays’ to showcase his musical talent on , . record. Clarity is something of purity which is correlative to prudential wariness of what is to be given to the listener. The gift on this album is displays the love ballad. For example, James Tyalor's "Fire and Rain" The less love with crispness and lucidity, without over-instrumentation. becomes. it instrumentation within a ballad, the more personal There are only two songs on Hasten Sown The Wind that meet this singing theoretical criterion. Willie Nelson’s Crazy sees Linda pleasantly with idyllic simplicity, unencumbered by violins or cellos. "Lo Siento Mi Vida" flows with the smooth, pronounced Spanish romance that is familiarly foreign. (Remove the old high school 'Spanish-English' dictionary with those swear words you had once curiously underscored from the closet for this one, folks. You II want to know what Linda's singing about on this, the first song she s written in quite a while.) Despite the fact Hasten Down The Wind is a very good recording. are that Linda's ballads are bogged down with instrumentation, they with the still pleasing to the ear. As I have said, the only problem ballads is reliability to the audience; each listener cannot be deemed an individual since the focus is on the masses. As John McGahn of Q-FM 97 once mused, 'The Masses are asses." And one's intelligence becomes insulted. discover In recordings like this one, it is inevitable that one should dreamy the philosophy of combines a favorite cut. Where the ballad the listener reality, of stark thought with artifice of imagination becomes entranced. Such is the song by Jackson Brown protege, lyrics: Warren Zevon, entitled "Hasten Down The Wind" Here are some / She tells him she thinks she wants to be free He tells her he doesn't understand She takes his hand. And tells him nothing's working out the way she planned She's so many women He can't find the one that was his friend He's hanging on to half her heartBut he can't have the restless part So he tells her to hasten down the wind. Instrumentation or no, no one interprets a ballad with as much —Harold Goldberg feeling as does Linda Ronstadt.

One problem the team faces is that it does not have a full-size field to practice on, but coach Julie Herman expects the team to do much better than their 3-5 record of last year because of the large number of returning players. Last year’s team consisted of many women who were either inexperienced or did not play well, but with experienced players such as Beth Liebeskind and Pam Tellock, the coach expects the team to score a lot more goals and win a lot more games. There is also more experience on the defensive line with Lynne Azzaro and Brenda Judkiewicz returning. Herman also adds her ! expertise, having just completed four years of playing field hockey at Cortland. Come and see These positive factors led Herman to confidently say, “We are looking forward to making Buffalo a name in field hockey circles.” The coach also hopes that more students come to watch the games, even though the women will not play their first home game until October 8. Don’t be deluded into thinking field hockey is a watered down version of ice hockey because you couldn’t be more wrong. The field hockey team plays its games no matter what the weater and during the thirty-five minute halves, no time outs or substitions are allowed.

But of course this assumption was a fallacy. China was not Soviet dominated, as subsequent events (mainly the Sino-Soviet rift which was making itself apparent in the late 1950s) were to testify. At the 1954 Geneva Conference on then-Foreign China’s Korea, and chief representative, Minister the late Chou En Lai, extended the to overtures friendly representative, American Secretary Of State John Foster Dulles. Dulles declined to even shake the urbane-Chou's hand. Even to this day that snub has not been forgotten. Fifteen more years were to pass before U.S.-Chinese relations were to be somewhat normalized. Will friendly relations be pursued now that the old guard (Chou and Mao) has passed or will it be discarded as a rash policy conceived by an ailing leader? It all hangs on the outcome of the anticipated power struggle pitting radicals against moderates.

Frieday said determining the schedules each year was an “educated guess,” based on what times more students took more courses, and at what times these courses started. Estimated annual cost of the service for all campuses is in excess of $400,000, about $60 per hour per bus. Estimated costs of calling in more buses when an overload occurs is approximately $45.20 per bus, since the University must pay for at least four hours worth of service, even if the bus is used for less time.

Those who have, already submitted applications include Steve Blumberg, acting treasurer, Abdul Wahab, former chairman of the Black Student union and Sub Board Delegate, Tyrone Wilson, SA minorities affairs coordinator for SA and Neil, Seiden, Student Association of the State Universities (SASU) delegate. In addition to the SA treasurer election, there will b,e balloting for six “at large” members of the SA Senate, an SASU delegate and an election for a student representative in the College Council. An important referendum will be held focusing on several important campus issues. One of the referendum articles will focus on procedural changes in the plus/minus grading system. At this University, plus/minus grades are not recorded on students’ transcripts. Whether the present three contact hour/four credit system should be retained or changed to a commensurate setup of four credits per four hours is another question appearing on the referendum. Buffalo’s rusty gridiron At the present time faculty can opt for exclusion from the Student Course and Teacher Evaluation (SCATE) survey. The outcome of a referendum article dealing with SCATE will determine if this policy is to be. continued or changed to a mandatory evaluation where ' instructors have no input. The time and honored tradition of an annual football referendum will not be violated this year. If a sizable number of students advocate the reactivation of Buffalo’s rusty gridiron the possibility exists, though quite remote, that a dozen minus one burly bruisers will be seen scrimmaging on a now neglected Rotary Field. Students are strongly urged to vote. Voting booths can be found at the following locations: on the Main Street Campus at Norton and Goodyear and on the Amherst Campus at Richmond Porter Clinton and Roosevelt. Another voting booth will be manned at the Ridge Lea 11;00 respectively. Buses scheduled to leave Main Street at 10:00 a.m., 10:55, 11:45 and 5:45 p.m. are being changed to 9:45 a.m., 10:30, 11:30 and 5:30 p.m. The bus scheduled to leave Ellicott at 10 p.m. and Governors at 10:05 p.m., will go to the Main Street the Ridge Lea Campus via Monday through Campus, Thursday only. These changes are effective on September 13th. The 6-bus (shuttle service) has been reduced from 3 buses to 2 buses in order to accommodate student need during the evening hours between 6 and 9 p.m. and the Saturday hours of 12 to 5 p.m. There will continue to be shuttle service every 10 minutes between the buildings on the Amherst campus between 7:30 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. Massivate Amherst-Ridge Lea changes call for a completely new schedule, allowing for buses running,10 minutes before and 10 minutes past the hour, rather than 15 minutes of and 15 minutes past.

He said there is a new plan to avoid another large deficit and to help offset the pharmacy’s summer losses. A professional fee of $2.25 will be charged for compound prescriptions, which take a significant amount of time to prepare. There will be a professional fee of $1.75 on all other prescriptions. The professional fees help to cover the cost of the pharmacist’s salary. A three percent markup is charged on over-the-counter items to cover the pharmacy’s overhead. The remainder of the pharmacy’s expenses are absorbed by student activity fees. Sub Board is a student corporation, made up of officers of the six student governments, which distributes over $350,000 in student activity fees. Its divisions include publications, UUAB, Health Care approximately and others. The pharmacy opened in November 1975, after Board approved the School of Pharmacy’s proposal for the student pharmacy in the fall of Sub 1973., $56,000 was allocated for equipment, drugs, salaries and other expenses. In January 1976, President Robert Ketter announced, cutting off the'pharmacy’s funds .until the license was transferred from Sub Board to the University. Ketter said that he could easily justify the pharmacy’s educational function if the license was transferred to the University. There was a need to justify the educational purpose of the pharmacy because of complaints from local pharmacists of unfair competition, and to ensure it complied with student activity fee law. The educational function of the pharmacy is served through clerkships, a requirement for pharmacy majors. By last March, the pharmacy was thousands of dollars in debt. It was then that Sub Board transferred the license to the University. However, Sub Board, in an agreement with the administration, still administrates the pharmacy’s operations. The pharmacy will remain open all year, offering low costs to students on prescriptions.. It is hoped that stiidehts will take advantage. The new hours are 9-12 ndori and 1-5 p.m., Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday; Wednesday 9-12 noon and 1-6:15 p.m. The evening hours are directed at Millard Fillmore students. - Executive Vice President Albert Somit has been named Acting President of the University while Robert Ketter is away on a six month sabbatical.

A survey of 60 non-Communist nations suggests that the United States professes a greater level of religious commitment than any other major industrialized nation and ranks only behind India among all countries studied. Compared to Europe, the gap is particularly striking. While 56 per cent of the Americans surveyed said that their religious v-vy * .* ',** »V in American life and to the decline of faith in Europe. beliefs were “very important,” only 27 percent of Western Europeans said the same.

It was shut down amidst much controversy by (he Ketter Administration last semester after Carl Cavage, owner of a chain of record stores in Buffalo, complained that the Coop was competing unfairly with the Cavages store on Main Street. Cavage contended that the Coop could charge lower prices because it was not subject to rent and taxes and thus was illegitimately drawing business away from his store. Cavage complained that since the Coop was located on state property, and thereby aided by state taxes, he was, in effect, funding his competition. As a result of the Cavages complaint, Edward Doty, vice president for Finance and a Management, issued memorandum to then SA President Michele Smith which ordered that the Coop must close its doors, and shut down all operations within two weeks. In the memo, he asserted that the Coop was an illegal commercial enterprise under its present condition. APHOS (Association of Professional Health Oriented Students) ■ Thurs.

Judaic Studies is far from being an ethnic eccentricity. Rather, it represents an important current in Western Civilization in its origins, history, and modern culture. To say that it serves the “interests” of a specific group only, merely points up the ignorance concerning the importance of this area of study. In the light of the demonstrated ignorance, the suggestion that Judaic Studies not be a “separate” program is absurd. It is only by having scholars adequately trained in various fields of Judaica that the University can enable students to fully comprehend the importance of the Jewish heritage within general culture. By giving Jewish Studies a peripheral place within the University structure, (i.e. leaving it as a few courses within English, History, Classics, and Religious Studies) the Committee is continuing a distorted view which hurts the student and the University as a whole.

Financial crisis Teacher Marion Porter said that last year alone she had to spend $600 of her own money to equip her class. Porter felt that the root of the problem was in the New York City financial crisis, which she theorizes has spread across the state even to Buffalo. Teacher Norman Rothdenberg feels that all these cutbacks will inevitably have an adverse effect on the quality of education available in the Buffalo Public Schools, although he pointed out that if a pupil is motivated enough, there will still be much he can learn. “We need more teachers,” he said. “We have tough kids to teach and we need all the help we can Call 8348814 or 8364738 for more information WELCOME BACK — get.” ' . . Principal Ronald Neer felt that the cutbacks were a loss to everyone. “For the school system to be a good one, the programs would have to be reinstated,” he said, hesitating to give detailed analysis until the school begins operating again. Presently negotiations to end the strike are still in a state of limbo. According to Meer and Porter the rumor mills are busy, so the only news they accept is what they read in the newspapers. The common hope is that the teachers will soon be able to trade in their picket signs for chalk, and return to the classrooms. ; personal pleasures. “We officially sign in and ten minutes later unofficially sign out,” student one told The Spectrum.

After capturing last year’s Big Four title with a 9-3 season, this could be the year that will catapult the University of Buffalo soccer team into prominence. In just four short years, Buffalo's soccer team has begun to establish itself as a potential powerhouse in the state of New York. Since the soccer program began here in ’72, the Bulls have had several winning seasons, culminating with last years 9-3, when Buffalo was ranked in the state’s top 10. But to all the followers of Buffalo soccer who anticipated an outstanding year, due primarily to the return ol an Without doubt, this year’s big question mark is at goalie. Last year’s goalie, MVP Brian Smaszcz, had to leave because of personal reasons and his replacement, Mike Harbin, likewise will not be returning. That leaves the goaltending duties to freshman Bill Gleason. He is an excellent athlete, but will depend heavily on support from the rest of the team. In addition, Emmanuel Kulu, an All-America selection for the past two years, has decided to turn professional and is currently playing for the Buffalo Blazers. For unknown reasons, many other players have not yet returned, but this does not mean that the Bulls will be taking their lumps in ’76. Quite the contrary, this year’s team could very well be an even better and stronger one then last year’s with many others returning. With the v Bulls facing Buffalo State today. Coach Sal Esposito thinks his squad is ready to play. Last week iii a scrimmage against Erie Community College, Esposito he was.t - “encouraged by the said replacements he put in.” “With our key people out at certain times, our replacements picked up the slack, and there were no big gaps in the team,” he remarked. Esposito is looking forward to a good season. He predicted that “we have the best chance to win the Big Four Conference.” In fact, he believes that the final standings will be a close repeat of last year’s: Buffalo on top, followed by Niagara, Buffalo State and Canisius. In quest of the title “major contender,” Esposito has upgraded the soccer schedule for ’76. The Bulls will be facing more Division 1 schools this year, including McMaster University, Cleveland State, Fredonia State and Houghton. In addition to these new opponents', other outstanding rivals include Syracuse, Hartwick, Brockport and St. Bonayenture. The only problem with this year s schedule is the unfortunate breakup of the SUNY Center Championships. Because of financial problems, Stony Brook has been forced to disband its soccer team, but the Bulls will continue to face both Binghamton and Albany. The Bulls’ first game of the ’76 season is at Rotary Field against Buffalo State today at 4:00. “They’re a pretty tough team,” Esposito remarked, while sporting a faint smile, depicting the optimism he has for the upcoming season. This year, the bleachers adjacent to Bailey Avenue have been closed, so all spectators have been asked to use the stands nearer to the gym. This year, all students will be admitted free of charge with an ID card, while all others will have to pay a game charge.

The report, first released this summer and re-released this week, also recommended a study of the four-course load and allegations of grade inflation. The Committeeis interim report created a small uproar on campus when it was released last February. It was criticized mainly for calling for the phasing out of several departments and Colleges. The Committee’s final report, however, revised some of its recommendations for phasing out programs into recommended centralization of the programs it questioned. The Committee said there should ideally be a balance between the humanities and science in order to provide a broadly based curriculum. But the natural sciences have been slated for the bulk of attention. The report recommends that past achievements in the basic and applied natural sciences and the post-baccalaureate programs combine, consistent with societal demands, to define the basis for the future development of the University. This mission will be based on a university model derived from the The Committee recommended with “land-grant” continual concern for both public a shift in the balance between graduate fundamental undergraduate and service and scholarship. This contrasts with education to a 60:40 ratio. This other notions of universities, such will require a 5 percent increase in degrees as the Ivy League ideal of post-baccalaureate not awarded over present figures (with self-generated research accountable to external demands. a corresponding decrease in Undergraduate numbers).

The basic ideals to which it pays lip service are praiseworthy, but unfortunately this philosophy is not translated into actual recommendations. Issues which will have a profound impact upon students consolidation of departments and are evaluation of grading procedures language, and confusing muffled in vague while minor points are dramatized. What are the lofty goals to which the Commission subscribes? A comprehensive education is called for, balanced between science. “The the humanities and the sciences are without humanities without the the sciences incomplete; humanities are dangerous,” they assert. The University must also respect the needs and demands of society, they say, without — - falling prey to the dangers of “career education.” But once these ideals are stated, the Report recommends steps which 'ead in the reverse direction away from a liberal education, away from a concern with socially aware students, and toward a job-oriented education. Instead of a commitment to improve the areas promising insights mto social processes and cultural dynamics as its ideals would indicate, we see an emphasis on classical literature. If the Committee’s concern is to produce individuals with awareness of contemporary issues, the should be on anthropology, stress sociology, political science and history, areas in which they say student interest is waning. If a balanced education means equal parts of applied science and classics, then the Committee is missing the point. consistent, This attitude would be however, with recent administrative decisions such as the dismissal of the Social Sciences College. — After showing a keen awareness of all the pitfalls of educating students for specific occupations changes in the job market, difficulty in preparing for even entry level jobs, shortening of career ladders it concludes that “growth is limited by support and demand” and that society’s negative view of a liberal education must be taken into account. In other words, let’s do it anyway. This reduces the commodity of education to the let us principles of a market economy demands. supply what society — - - Should the demands of society dictate the direction of scholarly interests? Should intellectual growth be determined by today’s job market? One need only look around at the thousands of unemployed products of teachers in our society answer these to career speculation questions. undergraduate liberal arts program. It will admit an elite intellectual few who, in their first two years of education, have proven themselves fit for this rigorous training. Apparently gone is the ideal of a liberal arts education for all who desire it. The sensitivity of the Commission to internal political problems between the administration and faculty is one area which is deserving of praise. Hopefully the higher echelons of the administration will to heed their advice improve communications with the rest of the community and avoid university confrontations, such as was recently witnessed in the resignation of a large segment of the School of Pharmacy this summer. - — The Committee’s false concern with a liberal, well-balanced education is further revealed in its plans for an upper division The content of this important document, which deserves the attention ot every student concerned with the direction of education in this state, consists of ideals which somehow elude themselves when translated into a plan of action. �Policy Studies internships New appointment Acting dean has fresh ideas The scheduled closing of Social Sciences College on July 31 has made the Colleges a subject of controversy this summer. Kunz does not believe that the demise of the College will hinder the other Colleges. “Each College has to rise and fall on its own merits.” However, he does feel that the Colleges will be hurt by the budget cuts, although he claims that the cuts have probably leveled off. by Fredda Cohen Managing Editor This.

Family Planning Clinic picksmew supervisor After reviewing over 100 prospective candidates, the Family Planning Clinic has appointed a new supervisor. Linda Guhlow replaces Pat Criscione, who resigned her position last May. The School of Medicine this summer refused to continue paying the $8000 annual salary of the Clinic supervisor because it saw no additional educational benefits for their students and because of cutbacks in the school’s budget, according to Sub Board Health Care Division Director Bob Olds. After the Medical School cut off funding for the position, the Clinic staff appealed to Sub Board\to pay the salary for a full-time supervisor. Sub Board turned down the request because they did not have the necessary funds, according to Olds, but they did agree to furnish the funds for a part-time supervisor. When funding was supplied the criteria for the position was determined according to Olds. A graduate nursing student was preferred in the hope that the new supervisor would be removed from the student body, and be able to provide a bit of hospital floor experience. Olds said another consideration was limited amount of time to fill the position:the only instruction needed to assume supervisors’ duties would be in the administrative procedures involved.

For six years SSC offered courses in Marxist social and economic theory until its charter was revoked by President Robert Ketter July 30. In closing the College, Ketter upheld criticisms of the College voiced in the minority report of the Colleges Chartering Review Committee which recommended (CCRC) termination, and the majority which had advised report conditional retention, if the College successfully completed major revisions of its program and leadership. The CCRC conducted an evaluation of Social Sciences and Tolstoy Colleges in late spring, While the CCRC painted a favorable picture of Tolstoy College in recommending its continuance, the committee, in both its majority and minority reports, offered serious criticism of Social Sciences College academic quality. Students and faculty of the College bitterly complain that undemocratic methods were Ketter and the employed by CCRC in rescinding the College’s charter. A protest memo issued by SSC this month elucidates this charge in two basic contentions, “We maintain that our College was closed because of University opposition to our political beliefs. This is in violation of academic freedom, which Ketter and the State University claim to uphold, Further we charge the Ketter adminstratipn with undemocratic procedures recently most his arbitrary manifested in rejection of the Majority Report of the Charter Review Committee, which recommended conditional approval of our charter until January 1977.” Precarious state Both the and Majority of the CCRC Minority Reports the academic question qualifications of Social Sciences faculty and the adminstrative of its top competence Majority coordinators. The Report recommended a total revamping of SSC’s faculty and administrative structure as a precondition for the College’s continued survival past January 1977.

BFT strike continues while enrollment falls Buffalo ci{y public school teachers’ strike entered its fourth day Friday, and students were again dismissed after a half day of classes. Pupils were supervised by about 500 regular teachers and subsitutes, some of whom have reportedly experienced difficulty passing striking teachers while crossing the picket lines. A spokesperson for the Buffalo Teacher’s Federation expressed guarded optimism that ’negociaters could reach an agreement before classes resumed today. Meanwhile, city attorneys sought a Federal Court restraining order against the strike. School Superintendent Eugene T. Reville said the dismissal of students early may be repeated Monday, should the strike still be in effect. A restraining order is being requested of Federal Court Justice —continued on page 14— John Curtin because the teachers’ strike is alledgedly interferring with a | court-ordered intrgration plan that is taking effect this year.

One difficulty facing the program is limited publicity. The existence of private practices the Clinic from prevents advertising the free work they will be dispensing.

Karras is the funniest athlete he has ever known, he said, adding that Karras’ dream was to be a “different” sort of cowboy in a Western movie. Karras wanted to play the role of Ace Zablonski and carry a small Japanese parasol instead of wearing a hat. Plimpton also did time as a trapeze artist, something at which he failed miserably. He once tried to go to a local clinic to get a shot of pain killer for his hemhorraged shoulders, but the clinic turned him down, explaining that, “the human body is a cathedral, and yop have desecrated it.” The question most often asked of George Plimpton is, “What next?” The answer is manifold.

The Coop, however, remains open under the guidance of SA while the legal problems are being resolved.(SA was named co-defendant in the lawsuit by Judge Gilbert King.) Meanwhile, the gripe students most often voice is that the Coop maintains irregular hoiks, remaining open only four days a week, .as opposed to. the normal five-day business week, according to Bruce Insana, Record Coop President. The Coop is only allowed to achieve $600 in gross sales per day, limiting the number of hours of business it can do. All items are marked up only three percent over cost as a matter of policy, Insana stressed. The three percent mark-up is to cover expenses, supplies, paper bags, and losses due to shoplifting. The Coop is located in the basement of Norton Hall, and opens every day at 12 noon. It is run by a staff of student volunteers. This week marks the beginning of an all-label sale. w?

Undaunted faith in the masses of people as the true heroes, the real makers of history, guided him as he led the Chinese people forward against the oppression of a feudal and colonial society and into the building of socialist New China. Chariman Mao’s faith in the people was not limited to the Chinese people alone. Over several decades, Chairman Mao maintained a deep sense of the role to be played , by American people in a changing world. Even when the U.S. government was providing Chiang Kai-Shek with millions of dollars of military aid to crush the Communists in 1946, Chairman Mao recognized the American people as an important force to bring about a peaceful resolution to the civil war. He said,“in the United States there are others (besides the imperialists) who are really strong the American people.” In 1949, Mao stated, “Certain ties do exist between the Chinese people and the American people.

Check it out for yourself! slightly longer To the Editor To the editor Charlie Goldberg c/k./ice To the editor tr Do you respond to the words “Oakstone Farm”? Possibly your initial reaction is positive, or possibly Negative. Or maybe you have never heard of the place. But I live there, and 1 want to give the University Community my view of what it’s like. It might be the only place in Buffalo where learning actually coincies with living. Oakstone is about 16 miles northeast of the South Campus, in Clarence Center. It has over 50 acres of farmland, but there is no farming. We have no pigs, no cows, no chickens or turkeys, not even a rooster to wake us up in the morning. Maybe you’re beginning to get the idea it’s not really a farm. Well, you’re right. There are two barns, but they contain a wood and auto shop, a music room with two pianos, a fully-equipped weight lifting room, a ping-pong table, and a studio. The rebuilt farmhouse has a library of over six thousand books, the best stereo system I’ve ever heard, and a kitchen with all the ingredients and spices needed for the most complicated receipe I’ll ever try. j 1 might be making the Farm out to be the last word in material luxury. Possibly it is, but 1 want to make an important point now,before you get the wrong idea: These materials are there to be used intelligently; and every time I use them that way, I gain some new knowledge and perspective on life. I find myself constantly using my imagination and straining my curiosity. Jonathan Ketchum owns and “runs” this huge, renovated farmhouse, and is the, cornerstone of Oakstone Farm. He has studied and taught, at Harvard, Stanford, and U.B. He started the project 18 years ago in Palo Alto, California, and in 1968 brought a new way of learning to Western New York-the integration of philosophy with daily life and general education. Don’t let the word “philosophy” scare you. It’s literal translation is “love of wisdom”. In my view, Jon is trying to achieve something very seldom attempted.

His delivery is poor; he mumbles; he swallows his yvords; it’s . hard to understand him sometimes on radio or TV. It's not a southern accent, it’s his articulation. The speech here was a good one the prepared text that is dealing with basic economic differences with the Ford Administration which are deep and vital. The election should turn on Ihern. The text was without eloquence, humor, or memorable phrases but there were sentences in it that we could imagine Franklin Roosevelt, with a lift of his chm and that tremendous way of his, belting right out of the ball park. Carter had an eager audience, it is hard to think of a more committed one, and George Meany, bald, elderly, in dark framed glasses, promised him the support of Labbr’s political adjunct, COPE, which he called “the best political machine in the country.” It was the moment for a stem winder of a speech but it didn’t come, particularly as the candidate didn’t follow text. He lapsed back into his pre-convention style of sequential generalities, delivered with love and compassion, and in a kind of falling cadence. The tough labor barons looked at each other inquiringly. The first debate comes September 23, dealing with domestic affairs. It would seem made to order for Jimmy Carter. By a coincidence it was just two years ago that the newly installed President, one of the most conservative in modern times, was making his choice of fighting inflation by cutting back the economy. Two years ago representatives of the poor, the aged, the handicapped, minority groups and consumers were holding a “pre-Summit” meeting, September 19-20 here with Administration leaders to discuss the worsening situation. Delegates charged that the new Administration planned to undertake fiscal restraint by making cutbacks in the Health, Education, Welfare Department’s social service programs. Why should the poor make the greatest sacrifices? They demanded. Mr. Ford’s chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, Alan Greenspan, patiently explained, “Everybody is hurt by inflation. If you really want to examine percentage-wise who was hurt most in their income, it was Wall Street 'C'MON, LET'S ADD A LITTLE GREENERY FOR THE VOTERS' ' — % T from Washington I don’t think’ the public realizes yet what’s ahead of it in the Ford-Carter debates. The outrageously long 1976 campaign has dragged on for nine benumbing months, the nation to near-stupefaction. Neither candidate has turned on the voters despite all the efforts of the media. Estimates are that half the voters wouldn’t vote if the election came tomorrow. The Gallup poll says 52 percent would take a chance on Jimmy Carter, the Stranger, compared to 37 percent for President Ford plodding and likeable. That could change with a bang, however, after the first debate next week. That’s what happened in the Kennedy-Nixon show in 1960. The election 1 thought was decided in a 10-second interval in the first debate not when anybody was saying anything but when the camera turned on Richard Nixon and caught him listening to Kennedy, wetting his lips nervously, jowls sweating and apparently near collapse. It was a brutal exposure. It happened again in the fourth debate when one of the panel of reporters somehow raised the fact that Harry Truman had uttered the awful word “hell” right in public and Kennedy smilingly responded that he couldn’t control Truman’s language and that probably nobody else could except maybe Mrs. Truman. Nixon unwisely tried to strike a moral pose about bad language in politics and again the camera cut in to Kennedy. His calm, cool, Irish patrician face broke into a smile that conveyed relaxed derision and contempt;, In 10 seconds an audience of 75 million or so representing two-thirds of America’s adult population, learned a lot about your Mr. Kennedy’s identity, guessed at Nixon’s, and felt its emotions rise. Nixon led Kennedy on the Gallup poll before the debates, 50 percent to 44 percent, but the election result was a Nixon 49.5 percent to Kennedy 49.7 percent fantastically small popular margin of 120,000 out of nearly 69 million! The debates did it. The debates changed the character of the campaign 16 years ago and will do so again now. They are going to pump adrenalin into the battle. It seems to be taken for granted that Carter has the verbal advantage. I am not at all certain. Mr. Ford graduated from Yale Law School in the top third of his class, practiced debated 25 years in the House and was minority leader nine years. Last January I watched him put on a remarkable performance in the annual budget seminar for the press and TV in the big State Department auditorium. Cabinet members lined up beside him as his aides passed out pounds of documents, and staff members were ready to supply answers to reporters’ questions if he faltered.. But he didn’t. He knew his'stuff. Only q couple of times in the big extravaganza did he call on an assistant for statistics. Mr. Ford is a plodding speaker (with the single exception of that Acceptance Speech at Kansas City which he had practiced for days) but he holds his own m general debate. We have seen Jimmy Carter once of twice on panels in primary contests with other Bgtnocrats where he didn’t distinguish himself, and VPa heard him speak here the other dav before — - m 1/ — fM^awAvor Hrihlorh is on mention $45-00. rne du WXLUOSP uvs A 10/ hap mv OFFtce PAiurec? me COLOR OJAS om>5 I THe RMK)T fOReor FLMCep TO JtfV iioaxpemjce RASTER- brokers.” Catcalls drowned out his remarks. That was two years ago. Mr. Ford was a brand new president and can be excused in part for following poor advice. But he had picked, or continued, the advisers, whose conservative instincts re-enforced his own. Very soon he reversed his position (but retaining his advisers) and instead of asking for a 5 percent surtax and a slash of government expenditures (not military) he was demanding stimulative tax cuts which liberal academic, economists like Walter Heller. James Tobin, Otto Eckstein had urged from the start. “The hurry-up tax cut process in early 1975,” recalls Heller, “was the occasion for one of those exercises in political irony to which the U.S. system of divided powers lends itself.” In short a by-now-thproughly-alarmed president berated the legislature for not acting faster in reversing the course which he had just urged: “These charges were directed at a Democratic Congress that had been virtually hooted down for its timely efforts to mount a modest fiscal offensive against the gathering forces of recession in 1974.” Wonder if Jimmy Carter will recall this odd anniversary next week, as Mr. Ford arrives for the debate on domestic affairs with his 55 vetoes ip his pocket?

The terms of the contract between the Department of the Interior (DOI) and Alyeska (a consortium of eight oil companies) stipulate that all main line girth welds, joining eighty foot-long forty-eight inch diameter pipes, must be radiographed in order to guard against leaks in the pipeline. Responding to charges of weld radiograph falsifications made by a disgruntled employee of one of Alyseka’s subcontractors, the company began an internalaudit of all 1975 weld radiographs. This audit revealed 3,955 questionable welds, possibly either inadequately or falsely radiographed or of an unknown caliber. Nearly 1000 ot them are under twelve feet of permafrost or installed beneath rivers. The DOI hired the accounting firm of Arthur Andersen and Company to examine Alyseka’s internal audit of weld-x-rays. The firm’s report stated that the Alyseka x-rays and documents were in such disorder that it was impossible to determine whether or not every defective weld was accounted for in their audit. Consequently, there may have been more that 3955 questionable welds. Due to the findings of the Andersen report, the DOI ordered Alyseka to bring their records of the 1975 Welding Program into an auditable condition. From now on two x-rays will be taken of each weld, one of which will be sent ot the DOI. Costly Mistakes Alyseka recently released the news that they have already unearthed 2.6 miles of pipe in order to correct poor welding. Thus far the constructions mistakes have cost an estimated $55 million. The project is four weeks behind schedule; however, Alyseka officials maintain that the oil will flow on time. At this point Alyseka is testing an acoustical imaging device to increase its accuracy in determining the quality of welds. This audio mechanism uses sound to form visual images. The company hopes this method will prove to be as good as radiography in checking weld quality so that questionable welds bpried in permafrost or beneath one of which will be sent to the DOI. rivers will not have to be unearthed unless determined to be defective. The pipeline is supposed to start flowing at the rate of 600,00 barrels a day in July, 1977. At this point it is two-thirds complete. However, with valid x-rays of each weld, the Secretary of the Interior cann t give permission for the oil to flow. BACKPACKING - Interested in: CANOEING - ROCKCLIMBING?

Dept. 658G, 19310Prunetidge Avenue, Cupertino, CA 95014 �Sportspaige by Paige Miller Sports Editor There’s a new set of initials, RARI (sometimes shortened by the computer to RAI), running around campus, and for those of you who are interested in such curiosities they stand for the newly created Department of Recreation, Athletics and Related Instruction. Like all new things, it has its share of problems, not the least of which is its name. Sal Esposito, the department’s new chairman, felt the name “was not indicative of what we do here,” pointing to one of the major differences between RARI and the old Department of Health Education. The “Related Instruction” part of the title includes only the mandatory gym classes, and, not the undergraduate education majors physical program, which is now housed under the Department of Health Related Professions (HRP). The reasons for the split were never made clear to Esposito. “I only have my own theories as to why it was done,” he said. As for the advantages of the new set-up, Esposito said, “I don’t see any. I personally see [prefer a total physical education program.” Esposito was one of the new faculty members to teach in both the majors and non-majors programs last year Phone money The fact that RARI and HRP both occupy Clark Hall didn’t help matters, since they previously shared the same phone system. Now, they each had to be given their own separate phone budgets, although the total of the twp remains the same. In an example of classic bureaucratic the overall phone bungling, budget was split in half, even though RARI has 21 full-time faculty members, to HRP's 10. So Esposito reorganized the phone system in a way that amazed phone company experts, and achieved a donsiderable cost reduction. The result: “1 still don’t have enough money,” Esposito lamented. The new department probably can get along with a sub-par phone system, but the budget crunch struck harder in other areas. Five thousand dollars were allocated for equipment, even though $15,000 were needed. So RARI is down below the bare minimum in a vital area, and it’s not too hard to imagine the baseball team running out of bats midway through its season. forcing fhe athletic department to find alternate sources of funding (which probably weren’t available) or eliminate intercollegiate athletics. Aside from that, the splitting of the Department of Health Education seems to be a purely cosmetic maneuvre. Athletics was never one of the administration’s favorite departments, and it clearly still isn’t now. There appears to be a lack of communication between the administration and RARI the fact that Esposito was never told why the new department was created clearly points to this. Regardless of what type of year Buffalo’s teams have on the field, and regardless of how successful this year’s gym courses are, in the, front office, RARI faces an uphill battle. Even if the baseball team doesn’t run out of bats, and they probably won't, there might be no one available in the equipment room to hand them out. Currently, there is only one full-time employee for each of the men’s and women’s equipment rooms. The rooms are open from eight in the morning to ten at and three full-time night, employees for each room would be a reasonable figure. Esposito concluded, “We’re tyring to make the best of a less than bearable situation. It left us with not enough money to do whab we have to do, and it left them with not enough money to do waht they have to do.” Some good points Esposito was quick to point out the vew bright spots' “Dr. Walter Kunz [Associate Dean of Undergraduate Education] has bent over backwards for me. He’s come through on the things that I asked,” Esposito said. “Anybody we’ve gone to for help has been more than willing to help us.” Also, coaches’ salaries have been virtually guaranteed, since all varsity coaches also teach gym courses which are mandated by state law. In the past, the state has threatened to withdraw coaches salaries, — * , The two experienced Bulls figure to be Buffalo’s top players, but LaPenna could not say which was better. Bill Cole played number one singles last spring, but Rob Gurbaski, who was second singles last year, has been coming on strong. Others who probably will win spots in the starting lineup include sophomores Jack Kaminski and David Kerr along with senior Steve Spiegel. LaPenna called Kaminski “a great talent," while Kerr won last year’s intramural tennis tournament and moved up to the varsity for a few games. Spiegel has been more active lately as Student Association’s executive vice president. Freshman team Beyond that, LaPenna figures to rely on some of the many freshmen who tried out,for the squad. For those freshmen who don’t make the team this year, LaPenna is beginning what might be called a junior varsity team. “We’re going to have a small freshman squad,” he said. “We’re doing this strictly on our own since there are no funds. We just want to keep them interested.” LaPenna has tentatively set his doubles teams for the upcoming season with seniors Gurbacki and Cole making up the number one doubles * * Miscellany: Others appointed Bill positions in RAR1 Monkarsh as Director of suggesting Esposito was quick “to point Intramurals and Recreation, a post he held under the old set-up; out the few bright spots. “Dr. former basketball coach Ed Muto Walter suggesting “It Could Have as director of Men’s Been Worse,” John Baboukis for Intercollegiate Athletics; tennis suggesting “Sports Miller” and coach Betty Dimmick as Director Larry Levy of Stony Brook for of Women’s Intercollegiate not suggesting anything. — sportsquiz Today marks the return of a popular feature The Spectrum's Sports Quiz.

Their lineup is new, with only two returnees from last year’s team, and their coach, Tom LaPenna was appointed only a short while before the fall season began. * Athletics; Viola Diebold as Director of Basic Instruction. Dick Baldwin. Director of Sports information has been moved from his- conveniently located offices in Clark Hall to more spacious but inconveniently located offices in The Crofts Building. Baldwin is responsible for off-campus publicity, so RARI has another hardship to deal with. Belated congratulations to former Buffalo baseball player John Buszka for leading the nation in batting average. His .517 was fifty points ahead of the second place finisher. Other Bulls nationally ranked: Bob Amico, eleventh in batting average at .424, seventh in triples and eighth in stolen bases; Him Niewczyk. seventh in strikeouts with 11.3 per game; and the entire team, first in the country with a .361 batting average. I’d like to thank both Rick Davidson and Jim Hunting for • LaPennna’s goal for his first year at the helm is to rebuild the team. “We lost four players from last year,” he noted,, “but I think we should pull out a 50—50 season." LaPenna added that the squad is very young, but that he expects the freshmen to be challenging the established players for spots in the linup as the season progresses. “There's no doubt that we’ll have an established team by this spring or next fall,” he said. Answers: 1. Clint Hartung and Whitey Lockman. 2. He was the third baseman when the Cubs boasted their famous doubleplay combination Tinker to Evers to Chance. 3. Tracy Stallard. Helpful captain The new coach singled out Burbacki, the team’s captain, for helping him with the team. “He’s the team’s leader,” LaPenna said. “He’s a great asset to any team because he’s all for the team. He’s helped me a lot getting me oriented.” Gurbacki was the only Bull to score a win in the team’s opener last Saturday at Cortland. Buffalo lost their remaining singles matches, but were ahead in the doubles competition when rain brought the match to a halt. “That match hurt us because we weren’t ready mentally,” LaPenna said. “We had only two days to prepare while they had two weeks. They came out ready to play.” The Bulls continued their season this weekend at Oneonta. Tomorrow they travel to Rochester, a local tennis power, before opening at home against Niagara on Thursday.

William Scott, a representative of the New York Life Insurance Company which underwrites the plan, had hoped for a favorable response from 60 percent of the 18,000 eligible students. A Sub Board spokesman howevei*, reported that only 2000 students have applied for waiver of the S67 premium thusfar. The deadline for filing waivers is September 15. Missing forms Sub Board Health Care director Robert Olds said a major problem with the waiver process stems from the failure ot the University to include the waiver forms in the same mailing as the policy information which was mailed to student's several weeks Spectrum Staff Writer Student Association (SA) and Sub Board I have adopted a new comprehensive Legal Services Program which will greatly increase the services previously offered by the Legal Aid Clinic. The new program costs about S30,000. double .the • allocation granted the old Legal Aid Clinic. It will be funded by both Sub Board and SA. They are currently waiting for Appellate Bourt approval and a possible University administration ruling on the legality of using mandatory activity fees to support the new plan. Appellate Court approval is required for agencies which dispense legal advice. Sub Board is a student corporation, which spends about S350.000 in student activity fees. Its hoard of directors is made up of representatives of the six student governments. Under the new program, every student will be entitled to representation involving drug arrests, domestic problems, landlord/tenant suits, and all University-related proceedings. While the program will continue to offer the same types of legal advise as the Clinic, the new plan calls for a public interest component involving research and representation for possible class action suits on relevant social issues, and a research and education aspect utilizing political science and law students to provide the campus community with greater insight into the legal and judicial systems Insetting'up this new program. S A officially withdrew recognition ol the Legal Aid Clinic and transferred the control and funding mechanisms to Sub Board. However, both SA and Sub Board came under criticism I t orn representatives of the Legal Aid Clinic for their handling of the transition procedures, and in the formulation of the proposal itself. Michele Lippa, former Director of the Clinic, said the Clinic stall (including diagnostic x-rays-, laboratory tests, medicines and dressing) and mental and nervous treatment. UgO Donald Larson, associate Vice President for Health Services, said the waiver form was not mailed because the original form was unacceptable and had to be redesigned. The -new form was not ready until it was too late to include it in the mailing package, he explained. To waive the premium the student must complete a waiver form, which can be obtained in Michael Hall, the Millard Fillmore College (MFC) office, the Student Association (SA) office, or the Sub Board Business office. The completed form is submitted to University Health Service in Michael Hall not later than September 15, 19,76 where it will be reviewed. The plan covers accidental injury, ambulance service, anaesthetic surgical Legal Aid, SA by Marty Schwartz schedule, hospital room and board, doctor visits, dental care, special sickness benefits Rising costs A student is permitted to use University health service program regardless of whether or not he or she subscribes to the new health insurance policy, stressed Mussehnan. Health Service responds to any emergency on campus, he added. Mussclman, in explaining the need for a health insurance plan, cited the rising cost of quality health care, as well as sonic key drawbacks in University health service. Health, Service docs not provide general surgery, ojthcpcdic. cardiovacular c'arc and x-ray diagnosis.

The > differ on merit of new program Both Lippa and Granat lelt the large scope of the program, as well as some possible conflicts, such as legal representation for one student group opposing another, might diminish the overall 'quality of the basic services. Norman- Lffman, formerattorney for the Legal Aid Clinic, said that under live provisions in the proposal, an attorney could be involved in 10 15 cases involving litigation per week, and thus be overwhelmed and unable to fulfill the other provisions of the plan. Effman claimed it would require at least three attorneys to conduct the basic operations ol the plan, and given the -existing $30,000 limitation, felt the services,could not be provided. suggested that what S.ub Board had really done was to abolish a functioning program without having anything ready to replace it. Former Clinic Director Lippa claimed she was not contacted until a week alter the Clinic was officially dissolved about the possibility of having the old workers staff the office during the transition period. Dave Brownstcin, now •Acting Services Director, of tlic Sub B d. blamed Ill I' the anxiety of old Clinic workers who feared they would lose their jobs. He conceded that the transition could have been a loj smoother, but claimed that the old Clinic staffdid have input into the process and had submitted their own proposal for a .legal many’ of the problems 'on rejected by Sub Board. Bmwnsicin suid much uj' ihc luis subsided, and that the basic services arc now bciny Controversy provided until necessary administrative and appelate court approval are obtained. Sub Board Chairman Jon Roller said he saw no problem with the courts or the University administration. However. Assistant Vice President for Student Allairs Anthony Lor.cn/etti indicated jvisions of the program might need to be clarified before it receives adminsitjation approval tor use of student activity fee money. The SA attorney is Richard Lippes. His law firm's bid to run the new program was accepted by Sub Board. In disagreeing with hliman’s evaluation, Lippes said he would not have submitted a bid il he did not feel he could fulfill the services offered in the program. He added that a program of this nature is unique, and hopes it will serve as a model for other campuses across the country. Still, individuals connected with the old clinic describe the new program as a ploy by SA to replace liftman's law firm with Lippes' firm. They suggested that the program concept originated with Lippes. and that he had contributed to the writing of the proposal. Most of the individuals blamed Sub Board for the confusion in the initial transition period and the problems in maintaining the Oil-Campus Housing Office during the last August. They further was not consulted, and lelt that members of the Clinic should have been asked to sit on the Sub Board Committee wlijch drew up the proposal because ol “their obvious expertise.” Jell Granat. a third year litw student at the Clinic, said students are being slighted by not being provided with the highest quality service.

SA has hired students to maintain an information table at the end of the ID line, equipped with registration forms, absentee balotrequests, and all the necessary information for Using them. Working with SA is the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG), which hopes to motivate large numbers of college-age people (18-25) to register to vote, and at the same time to gather statistical data on their registration trends. Problems Ron Wainrib. one of the three local co-ordinators of NYPIRG at this University, staled that in l l>72 less than half of New York Stale’s college students registered to vote. Consequently, candidates for political office did not pay , much attention to the 18-25 age group. Ideally, NYPIRG hopes for a large percentage not only to register, but to complete their survey form, whose ultimate objective will be to. impress political candidates with the number of college students voting, as well as to convince them to take students’ concerns seriously. A few problems are being-anticipated, however. Distribution of literature and forms has been limited due to a lack of student Voting increase •NVP1RC has set up distribution points at Buffalo and five other universities (Syracuse, Brooklyn.

Schwartz's proposal, on behalf of SA, to have classes begin the Wednesday after Labor Day was voted down 7 to 1. The current calendar was accepted by the committee for several reasons according to Schwartz. Stale University of New York regulations require a minimum number of classes to be held on each day of the week. A week of school was added before Labor clay and subtracted at the end of the Christmas vacation in order to save on heating bills, which naturally will be greater during the winter.

A middle-aged graying man, German university in the stacks and papers type, he looked dazed. “I'm so glad to find you,” he kept muttering. (Buffalo has a way of inviting people, meaning to be nice, and often losing track of them, so that would-be chairmen are just sort of left lost in the halls as some other activity claims the host’s attention.) We tried to give the man a chair, a cup of coffee, and to reassure him about Buffalo, though, to be sure, it was certainly far from the center of the universe (when strangers hear that, they often get a certain dazed, disoriented, and frightened look on their face, seeing the parachute they’d been told to leap out of suddenly fail to open in mid-air, that look of tumbling to the professor earth). Finally named his price, what he wanted from Buffalo was a mistress. It was the first time I had seen Bruce Jackson lose his cool. His mouth fell open, and as if he remembered that suddenly not professors are perhaps supposed to sit perched on the tops of desks but on chairs alongside of them, he jumped down, turned off the video. I myself stared at the wall on which was affixed a poster of Jean-Paul Belmondo. Definitely this shy Humbert Humbert had been given the word about the “swinging English department at Buffalo,” and was manfully trying to live up to what he thought was expected of him. The poor man seemed to be suffering from some sort of temporary cultural shock, and on and on he went, quite seriously explaining his needs (in Buffalo people spend a great deal of time discussing their emotional states of mind). 1 think what he was a actually describing was housekeeper, but anyway there was no doubt about it, he was standing his ground.

Certainly there was the sense at, good in Buffalo least of life going on in the place, if at times a bit mad, it was better than no life at all. I thought of the children playing with balloons in a spychedelic tent with strobe lights and music, while nearby the old heated Marxist-Leninist rhetoric of the ’thirties was blanketing the teach-in, and there was something oddly moving and wistful about this American university, this “Buffalo Is a Winter Carnival" ambience that one didn’t want to and see altogether disappear something quite moving in Mdrtin Meyerson’s dream of a free and open campus.

My story is going to be about the week I just spent visiting friends, of mine, Charlie and Gladys. I’ll tell you what I did and what I saw. Fart of visiting these friends of mine is being introduced to The latest in appliances, gadgets and affluent living. You might say that Charlie and Gladys are thoroughly middle-class. Charlie is especially haunted by the American dream of more and more. He’s a compulsive consumer and there are always new purchases to see when 1 visit him. A while ago he went through what I call his “Kodak phase.” He had five or six cameras and three slide projectors. (Most of his slides were of people sitting around a table with drinks in their hands, and of course he never looked at them.) Then he went through his “Panasonic phase,” when there were stereos, portable TVs, and digital clock radios everywhere. Another time motorcycles. Then a it was Cadillac, which got five miles to the gallon. Last summer when 1 visited Charlie there was a new swimming pool. Then 1 arrived this summer, predictably, he had just picked up CB radio. The CB confounded him; he could not see how he had lived so long without it! Charlie and Gladys live on the Jersey shore, so naturally along with their two cars they have a boat. This year, like past years, Charlie had a bigger boat to show me. First he had a small speed boat, not much bigger than a rowboat. This time, however, we went for cruises on what he calls his “personal yacht,” a $12,000 a cabin cruiser. Charlie’s problem is that he is never satisfied. Take his “yacht” for instance. He likes this boat and he is proud of it. However, whenever he is out in it, he cannot help envying the bigger boats that others have. To him, bigger is better. The way Charlie sees it, not to strive for something bigger. when something bigger exists, is to, give up on life itself. Charlie is one who intends to live, so he lives for that bigger something. But 1 don’t want to give you the impression that my vacation was all boat-riding. 1 also had the chance to enjoy the facilities of the famous Charlie’s Playland. What is Charlie’s Playland? Well, it’s actually Charlie and Gladys’ backyard. Years in the making, it is named after its creator and continuing inspiration, Charlie. Besides the pool, there’s a covered patio, an outdoor gas grill, a miniature bar (on wheels), and fun and games galore. The whole thing is surrounded by a high fence. While I was visiting, it was hot and I spent time swimming around in the pool. (I it’s a had to swim around circular pool.) the wm. hengeren co. JIM’S CHARCOAL BROILED HOT DOGS , Z8C30 Niagara Falls — , Sunday, to Charlie’s delight, his playland was utilized to the fullest. Mutual friends of ours arrived and they were on enjoying themselves. There was a barbecue and much eating and drinking. We swam. We played One horseshoes, darts and badminton. Needless to say, beer was poured on a few heads and even the pool’s filter got a little drunk. Every now and then the festivities would slow and Charlie and 1 would have a serious discussion. The best one pertained to the nature and significance of pot-bellies. I mentioned that some people took them to be evidence Charlie, living. of decadent hpwever, did not see bellies in that way. I can remember him, affectionately patting his own paunch, saying, “This is my pleasure spot.” To him, it’s a symbol of success. Consumption is good. In fact, before 1 left, Charlie bet me that some day I’d have a belly like his. He’d like me to join the club. Next week; Walking across the frontier. mmrnmmammmmmmmmm SALE ENDS SAT.

Almost,- • ■ This year Sub Board, through its publication division director, informed the editors of The Spectrum that there would be several stipulations attached to the contract with The Spectrum that had not been made before. There were four relatively unimportant technical stipulations which, it was agreed, would be written i it to the contract. Besides that, there were four provisions advanced by members of Sub Board and the Student Association which were settled as verbal agreements, and are as follows; "Public Service space will be provided. This will be a centralized section b evote d to student government and Sub Board notices (i.e., meetings, grants and scholarships, activities, etc.) "When physically possible, The Spectrum will strive for conscientious coverage of meetings (SA Senate and Assembly; GSA Senate; Sub Board board of directors, etc.) —"On controversial issues, student governments and/or Sub Board will be allowed to address the student body through a Guest Opinion — — 'Public notice will be made of any stipended positions, as they become available As we told the members of Sub Board, alt except the last verbal proviso were already a regular part of the paper's policy,, and were therefor acceptable. The last stipulation is reasonable and presents no difficulty, either. The/point of dragging you through all this discussion is that college journalism as practiced at the State University of Buffalo is not free from restraint and divorced of government intervention; the practicalities of funding a thrice weekfy newspaper do not permit it. At the same time, most of the members of the student government and Sub Board respect the rights of a free press, and restrain themselves from making any overt attempt to influence editorial policy. For a variety of reasons, which probably include a desire to serve the students and a desite to serve themselves, the officers of the Student governments and Sub Board felt it necessary to formalize these provisions As journalists, we recognize our responsibility as a public service vehicle and an avenue of communication for the student governments that help fund us. As journalists, however, we protest the formalized stipulations imposed on The Spectrum this year by Sub Board and the student governments as precedents in the dangerous direction of editorial control, as inroads on the sanctity of what should be a vigorous, free and responsil)le press.

On 'main occasions during this past summer. I could not find a parking space in the Sherman lot where students arc permitted to park- On these occasions. I noticed that both the Sherman faculty lot and the Diefeiulorf lacully/slalf/visilor lot was never more than half full at any given lime. It would have been much easier for me and oilier students if we had been able to have used these two restricted lots when ours was filled. I am annoyed at this My feelings are these whole situation. It was aggravating to have to see practically empty but these two close-by because I was a student I could not. park there. We students who pay luition'and taxes, only ask to be allowed to park somewhere so we can make our classes and other appointments on lime. My suggestion is that at least, during the summer, have open parkipg for everyone. l.csIcV /.Vims Faculty compensation In ih i l iliini 1 want Id commend Tin-’ Spccinun for its concern' with the relative eompensa+ton of faculty as was described in your article oC the Ihtli. I am article on especially pleased that your staff developing a style which examines relevant taels ami figures in somewhat more detail than in the past. I want to adjust some errors that'were in the article, probably due to deadline pressure. X major confusion is in confusing salary with compensation. Your article quoted figures' (front AAUI’ Annual salary Report. I presume! for the average various levels, hi tact those figures' were for salary plus Cringe benefits or average “compensation The writer did mention that the figures combined salary with fringes, but both before and after that clarifying sentence, the compensation figures were referred to as salaries. This contributed to problems when there was a later description of data which I provided on true salary distribution. Your major point-is valid and important; SUNVAIf does have one of the highest compensation and Again, the article made valid points when discussing the differences between male and female faculty salaries at various ranks. However, the figures Therefore, your renders should know I ho t there were only 24K lull-time slate faculty who received he I ween S 25.000 and S'20.000 of which 20 (K percent I were women (not 2K of 520), Also there were only 242 (not 2S7) such faculty who earned over S20.000. of which S (2 percent) were women. It is true that 12 of IS instructors (tenured or tenure-track) were women hut I do not recognize your average salary figures. Nevertheless, your point is both valid and important. Women are clustered at lower ranks and receive lower average salary at given ranks than men do. I also want to expand the statement attributed to me. t here is "a bulge at the highest salary ranks" but this holds whether you discuss faculty or non-facuily. finis, there were 445 tenured l ull Professors and only 2S7 tenured Associate Professors and still fewer Assistant Professors on tenure track (210). Overall, over (>4 percent of the full-time faculty held tenure- and many units were well above this Iniversity average. Since the upper ranks command the largest salaries and the largest annual increments (in absolute dollars), il is clear that there is a gross distortion of the'more frequent pyramid salary structure. furthermore. in a cutback economy, the lowest ranks will he retrenched and the discrepancy will increase. The "tenured in” status of the faculty will make affirmative action hiring even more frustrating than it is now and will contribute to a further gap in.salary and proportion of positions held hy women and minorities. quoted the national percentage of l ull and Associate Professors as ,57 percent. The percentage in December of I‘>75 was'at ft 1 percent for SUNYAIi It is clear that the continuing cojvcentralipn of extremely highly paid senior faculty is a major factor in the budgetary crisis of the University. A given percentage of salary increase becomes a much higher absolute amount when applied to their inflated salary base and drains money (hat otherwise could be used for hiring the highly talented, innovative new generations of faculty. Also, the draJ+mfoesjnot contribute an increment in service to the University directly since the same people are merely being paid more- finally., the drain lakes money that could otherwise be used-for graduate assistantships (which ) In'chising. I want to ..repeat my gratitude that I he Spectrum is developing a dala-based style anil hope that the pressure of deadlines can be removed from such non-lime based articles.

Mitch Hen/a, on loan from Buffalo State's Strait magazine, has contributed his view of the Beach Boys. by John Duncan Music Editor How is it that the typical rock audience will stand for five minutes, simultaneously clapping and screaming for more, only to end the ovation with almost equally overpowering boos and jeers when refused a second or third encore? Such a farewell was conveyed to Jeff Beck and the Jan Hammer Group after a stunning set and one encore, 90 minutes of thoroughly professional jazz-rock which came as a completely unexpected bonus to a great many of the people there. Although the exact figures are not likely to become available, it is probably safe to say that about 70 percent of the crowd was present to see the Bpach Boys, who were to go on last. With Memorial Aud filled to capacity, this works out to a rather large number of disinterested or unfamiliar listeners to be diverted by the unlucky second fiddles of this unlikely doubling bill. The what brothers? The evening was actually opened by the Kate Brothers ("Mr. Union Man"), whose lack of memorability typified the faceless "filler" acts who always seem to open events of this nature. A four-piece rock band with R&B aspirations, the Brothers played a predictably short set, highlighted only by tight vocal harmonies and isolated smiles of recognition as they sneaked into a ten-minute version of their hit single, which resembles none of their other material. Next? Beck did not come onstage at first, allowing the Jan Hammer Group to warm.up the audience with "Oh Yeah!,' the title cut to their Saunders recent album. Comprised of Steve Kindler (violin), Fernando characteristic (bass), and Tony Smith (drums), the outfit played "fusion" fare, proving to be a flawless backdrop vehicle for the —continued on page 14— Everybody liked the Beach Boys been stereotyped and trapped ever Not that this is an uncomfortable position tor since. the boys, they're still filthy rich. Why, they even withstood that psychedelic period of bullshit when Brian was getting shot down by gvery, rock critic in the country. They just never gave him a chance back then, but that question of Suburban mass acceptance may be answered by a hypothesis'l propose here and They've now. It seems that we are dealing with the second generation of Beach Boys consumers, not the first. Primarily I find that a majority of heavy metal (Black Sabbath, Kiss, etc.) is consumed in the inner city core of tough punk-street latitudes where theey aviod the Beach Boys like they avoid the Osmonds. Out in suburbia, things are still peachy even though dope consumption is higher due to increased affluence. Here the kids can relate to the Beach Boys because they sing about materialistic wants and good times of the middle classes. I Funny, y'know? When was a kid everybody liked the Beach Boys, but always listened to the music as a background-track to my childhood. It was there and I listened to the stuff but I always took it on a musical rather than a lyrical acceptance. was too young to drive or pick up girls. Besides, loved the Beach Boys then and I still do Why? But I I I Hell, I loved 'em. do 't know, but even the kids White White White I grew up with . As they were setting up keyboards to the right of the, stage before the set, I was letting my imagination wander, hoping that Brian Wilson would appear behind that keyboard' console. After all, why should the other four revel in all the glory; Jeez, Bri, I thought you got over your monk-like behavior. Regardless, the Boys had an excellent sound system and their accompanists consisted of a brass section (which added considerable fullness to the numbers it was used on), as well as percussionist Bod Figeroa, bassist Ed Carter (I still miss Bruce Johnston) and the likes of Billy Hinschp, who sang the verses to. "Sail on Sailor," as well as. playing keyboards and guitar. - ■ The applause was voracious upon, recognition of the classics by all the youngsters present. This is also amazing, since the Beach Boys' more dated classics aren't played with such great regularity on the radio, except on rare occasions such as the "Beach Boys month" Buffalo airwaves seem to be going through lately. When the group reverted to cuts from the new album, the applause was less deafening. Believe me, the new album is solid and the choice of numbers (which from it was good. Songs like "It's OK Ones) Big 15 and single the from should have been Al Jardine's "Suzie Cincinatti” were performed with just as much loving care as the surfin' favorites. At one point when Mike Love introduced a cut from the new album he said something to the effect that they were in hopes of a successful single, "and believe me we need it". Not the money of course, but the success of the single to prove that they still have the touch. And they still do have it. I for one can't explain the slump they’ve been having, but it s a lot worse than the Boston Red 3ox, or the Green Bay Packer slump.

Thanks to superb casting by Artistic Director Robin Phillips, combined with a rare talent that makes everything the festival company touches turn to gold, this bittersweet story of romance and revenge becomes as alive to us as the actors themselves. Shy lock Out of The Merchant of Venice comes one of the memorable figures in literary history: Shylock, the most Antonio, Venetian merchant whose ships are all at sea. Bassanio needs the money to finance his suit for the hand of Portia, an heiress from Belmont. Shylock agrees to the loan, although he hates Antonio fpr the way the merchant has treated him and interfered with his business by lending money interest-free, on the condition that Antonio will sign a bond to forfeit one pound of flesh if he does not repay the principal on the stipulated day. Mission accomplished Meanwhile, in Belmont, Baddanio succeeds in winning Portia’s love, as well as choosing the correct one of three caskets which contains her portrait, a condition of marriage set forth in her dead father's will. The lovers' joy is compounded by the announcement of the impending marriage of Bassanio's friend, Gratiano, to Portia's companion, Nerissa.

Although this' character has the potential to be an emotionless stereotype, Shakespeare has wisely endowed him with qualities that make him as vulnerable and; therefore human, as any other man. When Shylock, greedy, vengeful person that he is, utters the words, "Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions?" one has to feel sympathy and a little guilt for the loneliness he has endured. Shylock is by profession a usurer and to him one day comes Bassanio, who seeks to borrow 3000 ducats (Approximately $20,000) on the credit of his friend, V '-v Unjust treatment — - GRADUATE OR UNDERGRADUATE CREDIT AVAILABLE: FALL 1976 MUSIC DEPARTMENT ENSEMBLES DAY & TIME PREREQUISITE ensemble University Chorus University Choir U/B Winds U/B Symphony Band U/B Jazz Ensemble Collegium Musicum University Opera Studio University Philharmonia University Orchestra � The motivation behind iShylock's adamant desire to get revenge from AntonioSs clear.

He kindly dedicated the number to all the girls in the audience, and this was met with another round of sexual fantasy. Everybody got their wishes fulfilled that night. The most ironic part of the concert came when Mike made reference to all the "older folks" in the audience. Towards the end of the show he reiterated "I've never seen so many old people make such fools of themselves." He should have taken a walk around the audience and seen what I curiously took note of before making such statements. There eere very, very, very few thirty-year olds at the concert that for the overdubbed guitar lines heard on the records, there was little or night.

I want prool that they can be just as good and new as they were ten years ago. Speaking from a realistic point of view, this all depends on the actions of Brian Wilson. In the past his ideas were looked upon by the rest of the group with questionable remorse, and today they- look to him for the success of the future with these same ideas. Brian Wilson is the Beach Boys, and has one of the greatest pop minds to evolve oh this planet. No one will ever understand years after the success of "Good Vibrations" what actually happened. And I don't want to know. I wanna keep Brian in my mind as perfect and musically untouchable as he was in the early sixties. Brian should have toured with the band this time aroimd. Maybe he would have regained a greater part of his confidence, seeing the enthusiasm of these youngsters. He still has it, and wish he d let it come out, but it's like trying to squeeze a brick.

The music was still a vehicle where jazz musicians could display their ultimate axe skills, but it also displayed the amplification and simple time signatures adored by the palates of rock aficionados. In the seventies this music went mass market with the early projects of the Mahavishnu Orchestra and later with the solo products of the members of this band, the most noteworthy examples being Billy Cobham's Spectrum and Jan Hammer's and Jerry Goodman's Like Children. Today this genre of music, which has been aptly labeled "progressive rock-jazz" features many stars, among whom shine brightly are Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Larry Coryell and Jeff Beck'. Perhaps though one of the most ingenious, but less commercially accepted artists is bass player Stanley Clarke. Though Clarke is not exactly void of His appeal here is customary standard, the sole purpose Of rhythm, he uses the bass as a lead instrument. In this sense, Clarke's playing is impressive, for not only is it unusual for the bass player to be the focal point, but he performs with precision and speed that substantiates his high placing in recent Downbeat j Cameras Although it might not be apparent, it is not only the uniqueness of Clarke's playing that sets School Days apart from other albums irv this vein. As a composer,'Clarke is as eager to change the profile of jazz-rock as he is in changing the concept of his four-stringed magic twanger. School Days includes jPriced to meet the student budget! jlhat's -845 Niagara Falls Btvd.j the usual rapid five guitar-synthesizer duets and four-stringed magic twanger.Sc/too/ Days includes the usual rapid drummer could be expected to play. Of course this is done with the impeccability that distinguishes his other releases, but the high points of the album (and the least repetitious) are the ones where he transcends the norms of jazz-rock. tune One block South of Sheridan Drive : | is "Quiet Afternoon." With its work, (contributed by David sweet keyboard Sancious) the structure of the music does much to create the atmosphere of the title.

One of the most pleasing explanations for this is the choice of Sancious instead of someone like Jan Hammer. Though Hammer should be respected for his spasmodic and dissonant approach, Sancious, with his mellow and almost soulful chording is more fitting, for the record. Melody is the key addition in Clarke's subtle change in song writing. ,fcr> , "Desert Song" goes one step further in Clarke's attempt to break with jazz rock tradition, Primarify an aecoustic duet between bass and guitar, the cut features excellent support by John McLaughlin. - any following; is well known and respected for his work with Return To Forever and has had three solo albums (which have sold better than average) it is probably his choice of instrument that limits his ability to sell records. Generally speaking, albums are not bought because they offer and excellent rhythm section. On the contrary, with the release of School Days. Stanley Clarke may be about to break this barrier, as well as a few others. To begin with, Clarke is light-years ahead of most other bass players in musical virtuosity. His ability to propel enthusiasm is best ’exemplified on the title track, an exuberant eight minute exercise led by his creative propensity. Instead of the usual , electric etcentricities that McLaughlin normally adds, he accentuates the piece with some very Django Reinhard-sounding six string: Also on the cut is the interesting percussion highlights of CTI veteran Milton Holland. If none of this sounds appealing, there is always the supercharged combination of Clarke, Billy Cobham, George Duke and Icarus Johnson on the last song of the album, "Life is Just A Game". To say the least about this record, Clarke is true to his art and has not sold out to any mechanized formulas. Whatever your taste is in regard to jazz or rock, Stanley Clarke will satify your musical thirst. jt-CaLEVI •LEE lRNDLUBBUR HIMRLRYR I SUNDOWNER] Biacount prieaa Guys G Gala Slxmm WASHINGTON SURPLUS OERTER "Tent City” mMMMTIWVCa mgrn WS-tBISHH Prodigal Sun Bflo.,N.Y. - ...CHECK IT OUT • • • • • • • •••••*•• ! tmmmm l?005£.y£LT C/\R;/ 7~L£’ VOUR S'worc.lt WRRNCLERI CRMPUS ' a.m. • —Dimitri Papadopoulos - 2 Munchies ‘til C,R/ 20/*^ 1,65 M / ~f>Cus 'S CHICKEN WINGS 1.0foiT 1.35 Jvrow OPEN VJED’-' XMURS fJil SAT > M M iOPn^lAH Friday, 10 September 1976 .

Their technique at the time, which was amply apparent on their first four albums, was to play louder, longer and faster. Steal Your Face, which was recorded at Winterland Arena, in 1974, is quite a departure from Live Dead, the album that best expressed their synonomy with the acid culture of the sixties. What is found on Steal Your Face is a more polished and structured band; a band that no longer relies on sheer energy to propel them into far-off spaces, Instead the Dead lay back, churning out new familiars and playing arrangements of old lackadaisical ballads. Though they, have picked upmuch in technical proficiency over the years, the band has lost most of their urgency. One reason the Starship sounds different now is the change in personnel they have gone through, New to the band, in place of old Airplane members Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Cassidy (who went on to form Hot Tuna), are innovative lead guitarist Craig Chaquio, bassist Pete Sears, drummer Johnny Barbata from C.S.N, and Y„ and David Freiberg from Quicksilver Messenger Service. An important plus for the band's reincarnation is the return of lead singer Marty Balin. Marty helps, the band considerably with his vocal efforts, especially by patching up weak harmonies and by adding original songs to the band's repitoire.. "Cruisin" is immediately his most recognizable contribution to the album and will undoubtedly be the most popular. The song is an up-beat rock number about the happiness found a Maybe the words that best describe Steal Your cruisin' and beepin' in your automobile. Surely that Face are Deja-vu. With the exception of a.few songs is easy to identify with; at least it is in comparison to which work well, are a pleasure to hear, and uphold the flying saucers they always sing about. What's their image of excellence in live musical virtuosity more is that "Cruisin," like the rest of the album, is ("Big, River" and "El Paso"), little turntable time going to please the ''its got a good beat and you can will produce the overwhelming sensation of having dance to it" types, as well as the West Coast music heard it all,before. freaks. Analyzing, each song is pointless, as the album contains nothing new, taut is simply a live version of their last few albums. What really bothers me is that at the time the Dead bothered to record this crap, they also bothered to sink about 300,000 dollars into a movie of the same event. As the story goes, Ambrosia, Somewhere I've Never Travelled (20th Century Records) God, what a trip it was, walking out of Fellini's Satyricon and listening to the new Ambrosia album. I thought Fellini made the album. Where else do we find a love song such as "Danse With Me George," a piece Chopin hypothetically wrote for his flame, writer George Sand? But the way they do it- whew! It's a bigstep from their last album, their first as well, and they really go bananas this time. Ambrosia contained doses of Kurt Vonnegut Jr., T.S. Eliot and Lewis Carroll. Somewhere I've Never Travelled has poetry recitals, and orchestrated cowboy showdown (gunshots included), elephant stampedes, African war chants, pinball machines and traffic noise. Enough to make Pink Floyd jealous. Let's face it, it's a pretty strange album. The tunes themselves are Beatle-ish, but that's narrowing a bit as well. There are definite shots of Yes vocals and Frank Zappa arrangements throughout most cuts. They rock hard but in a sophisticated way, with some amazing guitar and keyboard interplay as well as unobtrusive string arrangements to heighten the action. Besides tight harmonies, Christopher North stands out with his prowess on the acoustic and electric keyboards. This boy is one ace-upthe-sleeve other bands would like to hold. \ Three cuts on the album shine as arty and adventures in themselves. "Cowboy Star" is a Althqugh the Starship, like the Dead, have put an album that also includes a beautiful cover, they have at least proved that it's what's inside that counts. Spitfire is an album one should play to get into a good mood Dimitri Papadopvulos out melodic ballad depicting the fantasy world all we up-and-coming dreamers would like to get into, the one of a rootin' shootin' cowboy. The song breaks momentarily for an instrumental scene, orchestrated right out of a motion picture score. The sound effects man has a field day with "The Brunt", a trip that brings us into the jungle or everyday life as these boys see it. The real epic is "Danse With Me George" which goes to prove that even classical composers can rock with clever lines "You know your lips can spout quotations/But when your hips start their : gyrations/They can thaw Valley Forge/Danse with me George . . ." It all sounds like some upbeat grand waltz and it breaks into the instrumental "Le Danse" that includes some Spanish finger snappin' and a humorous foxtrot on the sax. And the way Christopher North lets loose those ultra-classical riffs should make Elton John retreat back to the Royal Music Ac^emy. Credit all the elaborate arrangements to the band too. This is the group that has it all. Even a knockout cover for the album that folds into a pyriamid and can be placed on the table next to your T V. (and it holds the record too). If their first album didn't get them on the track of popularity, this album has got to do it. Who says rock n' roll can't be cultured?

Stiangeness takes the form of anachronism in listening to an album that doesn't feel "live," It doesn't seem dead either, folks.

If applause- is present, meditative thoughf is stopped. With simple intricacy, instruments are layered, one on top of the other, to secrete sounds relatively pure gnd untarnished in "The Bogus Man." Like rain falling to a river, swirling into a waterfall, the sound builds to a clear, rushing cresendo at the falls' base. Sound is smooth but wary of rabid audience reaction, i.e. cat-calls and rhythmic clapping; Bryan Ferry concocting verbal potions, drugging audience minds to feel the Roxy magic. Ferry's keyboards and Andrew Mackay's saxophone add to Phil Manzanera's guitar a sensuous glow, growing, bursting to a rehearsed musical tantrum in "Both Ends Burning." Of course, when the pacedd tantrum's point is made, the song is climaxed, and the roped crowd is left hanging, inflated but a bit unfulfilled. (Now I know how some of my lady friends feel.) And the audience claps while the listener listens. But the strand of feeling remaining is somewhat exciting and its weaving is forceful. Ferry's airy, breathy voice mutes the extroverted tone of his lyrics to an opposing meaning that is confidential, perhaps grim. Such a secretive edge based upon open energy breeds enigma at the least and manic abstraction at the most As a "live" album, Viva! fails. Throughout the summer, really since the success of Clapton Comes Alive, there, has been a profusion of marketed "live" albums. Only a handful of "big-name" artists sold very well. With the exception of the "live" abandoned the group a few albums ago, whose Renaissance album, the performances were poor. departure led Bryan Ferry From the incarnate The only boon to the overall gimmick was the price shadows to the rocky Roxy foreground.

Nevertheless, these articles should not have "contributing editor" after (lie name of the author as this makes for editorial endorsement, and I. as a student do not want this endorsement in the student newspaper. As for the article itself, the truth is that the Republicans and Democrats are not the only two parlies running. Bui the Communist Party is not the only third parly.

Friday, 10 September 1976 service from 11 110 IVuneridye 2 offices in countries. Avenue, Cupertino, CA 9S014 �Marathon by David J. Rubin Special I calincs l:iliior The naming of buildings at ibis University is not ,one of the more pressing problems of the day. If people are willingto accept names like "Mayes A" or "4224 Ridge Lea." then there is little hope that the board Trustees' of Wives (or whoever picks out the names for new buildings) will ever see lit to let some creativity in the way. Most schools name their buildings for people who make large contributions of time and/or money. Without doing any extensive checking, there likely were Buffalo benefactors named Hayes. Foster. Parker who deserve to' have buildings that bear their names. In fact. Pcellc Field honors Jim Pccllc who is now in his fifth decade with the physical education program at Buffalo. However, the new buildings at the Amherst Campus present a problem. Slate schools in New York notoriously, lack private donations, and there are no friends of the University who deserve ,to have their names carved in stone forever. As a result, the BTW (that’s see above) has started groping for suitable Board of Trustees' Wives names. Take Governor’s Residence Halls for instance. The only thing Tom Dewey is remembered for is not healing Harry Truman in 1948. Governor Lehman already has an entire college named for him. As for Teddy Roosevelt, he only hung around the Governor's mansion until his big stick took him into the White House. DeWitt Clinton was dead before the University of Buffalo was created,. ElHcott is even worse. Even if you're willing to accept Joseph P. as notable Buffalonian. that still doesn't excuse Peter Porter. William a Fargo or Red Jacket. What we need is relevance. Halls should be named after people whose contributions to society affect our daily lives. Moreover, we need people Who students can identify with. What kind of love can you build up for Dean Richmond? The first thing to be done is to replace the BTW with the SB1W (Sons of the Board of Trustees' Wives see above) or SBT for short. Hopefully, these younger, more aware souls will see lit to enact changes like some of these: Change Governors' Residence to Bcatle Dormitory and rename the four wings John, Paul. George and Ringo, Change Ellicolt to Sabre City and rename the quads Perrault. Marling, Robert. Schoenleld. Korab and Desjardins. The intradorm rivalry would spring up almost immediately. When the new student union is finally coniplete.it would only be fair to name it Krainden Hall as the counterpart to Main Streets Union, Norton Hall. If any additions are made at the recently opened Samuel H. Clemens Hall, they might be named Huck 1 inn Hall. Becky , Thatcher Theatre, or Tom.Sawyer Library. Ridge Lea presents an interesting opportunity for the SBT to show its creativity. Numbered buildings like those at the Lea'a re just asking for improved names. If a numbered system is necessary, how about “Log O Ridge Lea” or “D x2. x=l Ridge Lea? v Calculus grades are sine to rise. • If things go well, the SBT might even try changing names. Lord knows, whoever’s hr charge now hasn’t been afraid of,change. John Lord O’Brian Hall (or is it Lord John O’Brian) could be changed to Perry Mason, much more fitting for a school ol law in this day and age. Do you know who Christopher Baldy is'.’ There is one theory that he's an eagle cooked up or A .-A. Milne in an obscure Winnie the Pooh t ale.’Cert a inly a change i.s in order here too. It is a shame that the prospect for any ot these changes actually coming about is grim. This dilemma is just another dillicull situation that ■ students, as well as faculty, will have to grin and boar here at Buffalo. But then, things are rough all over. - • " ■ Sh6rter wins Falmouth face Last summer. defending Olympic marathon champion Frank Shorter won a. duel with Marathon defending Boston champion Bill Rodgers in the Falmouth Road Race, held in Cape Cod. Massachusetts. Rodgers was also the defending Falmouth Road Race champion of 074. Everyone said that the promoter Tommy Leonard couldn't possibly top last year's feat. He did. How? Well, both/ Shorter and Rodgers had each experienced their disappointments in the rain in Montreal. After both made the Olympic team Shorter, the pre-race favorite for the marathon, was upset in his attempt to recapture the gold medal, by relatively unknown Waldemar Czicrpenski of East Germany, and had to settle for second. Rodgers, after leading for the first third of the race, faded badly and wound up 40th in a field of 70.

It also includes an extended coverage clause which continued certain kinds of coverage after the basic benefits have depleated. Although the plan does not provide blanket benefits, which is unlimited, but The plan, discussed in detail at last 'hursday night’s meeting of Sub Board, Would allow students already covered by some form of health insurance to waive the fee. Those who do pay will be entitled to the full range of benefits negotiated by Sub Board Health Care Division Director A1 Campagna. (Campagna withheld the name of the insurance company pending notification of those firms whose bids were has risen. He also said doctors and hospitals have become increasingly reluctant to treat students whom they suspect will never pay their bill. Campagna began his efforts to bring back compulsory-with-waiver health insurance in 1973. Along the way he obtained endorsements.from major student groups and specific permission from the State University Board of Trustees to The division directors’ participation is justified because 1 they are responsible for supervising all personnel and are aware of the day-to-day operations of the division. “Sub Board is a further rejected.) The Sub Board directors, division heads, and employees also debated the terms of a new system of employee evaluation which provides for yearly review of salaried positions. student-owned, Ketter’s tentative approval of the health insurance plan came when he returned to Sub Board a letter-of-intent to do business with the insurance company, allowing Sub Board to sign the letter and cany out a program in which the University would require participation. Sub Board Executive Director Tom Van Nortwick said this was the first time Ketter had formally recognized Sub Board, ’ which was incorporated in 1971. Executive Director, to date.” Several board members countered that including the division directors in the evaluation would unnecessarily complicate the process and cause inconsistency in the evaluations among the different divisions. They added that a division director’s presence may make an employee uncomfortable. Board members stressed that the evaluation process was aimed mainly at evaluating the position and changing the job description, not evaluating the employee. UUAB Division Director Susan Cassute, however, held that the division directors would be included because they have frequent contact with the employees in each division and with the Executive Director. Counsel ruling first submitted the letter-of-intent to Ketter, but he was told after inquiring of SUNY Central legal counsel in Albany that he could not sign untU the plan had been reviewed by the State Office of General Services, a process that would take at least two months. This would have made it impossible to implement' the plan by September, so Ketter returned the letter-of-intent to Sub Board. This meant that “the University has determined there will be already compulsory-with-waiver health insurance, not Sub Board,” Van Nortwick told the Board. Campagna said the University will mail letters explaining the plan to students and their parents in August, insurance identification cards will be issued in the fall. The fee will be collected by the Bursar’s office. The plan covers accidental injury, ambulance service, anesthetic, surgical student-financed corporation and should promote the maximum feasible amount of student input.” “We believe that the Evaluations Committee should actively require the division directors’ input and are surprised that we have nofbeen contacted, especially concerning the evaluation of Sub Board’s # Sub Board had should be mandatory. As the evaluation procedure currently stands, the division directors may only be present at meetings between Board members and employees at the employees request. The division directors’ letter said their participation in the evaluation procedure was necessary to halt what they see in recent years as “a pattern of student-staff dichotomy” on Sub Board. scheduled benefits,” all coverage is extensive for student type problems,” Campagna explained. The plan also provides that unused premiums be used either to improve the benefits or lower the fee. Campagna said at the meeting that compulsory-with-waiver student health insurance had been the pOlicjjfat this University through the 1960’s. In 1970, however, the University administration decided to make the program completely voluntary. Since then, Campagna said, the benefits have deteriorated while the cost conduct an experimental compulsory-with-waiver insurance program here for three years. Campagna will step down as Health Care Division Director this month. The new director i£ Bob Olds. Employee evaluations lire debate over the terms of the new Sub Board employee evaluations centered around a letter from four Sub Board division directors Health Care, Norton Hall, Publications and UUAB who feel their participation in the evaluation process - - Additionally, Publications Division Director Bill Finkelstein pointed out that if a committee head or employee within a division resigned, the division director has nd formal avenue of input into choosing a successor, as the evaluation process currently stands. Board members reminded the division directors that they may involve themselves in the process by writing a letter at any time. The relative powers and responsibilities of the board of directors and division directors has been a longstanding debate within Sub Board. Social Science Support for College shown Members and supporters of Social Sciences College picketed Hayes Hall Tuesday to protest today’s scheduled termination of the College by President Robert Ketter. About 60 people, including members of the Student Association, Women’s Studies College, Graduate Student Employees Union, United University Professions, Civil Service Employees Union and National Lawyers Guild, joined Social Sciences College members in sending a delegation into Hayes Hall to request a meeting with Executive Vice President Albert Somit. According to one spokesman, the group wanted to arrange a meeting with Somit to discuss the impending “unjust and arbitrary” suspension of the College. Somit refused to meet with the group until it presented a written request and proposed agenda. “Somit has refused to meet with us before July 30,” said Howard Kling, a spokesman for the College. He stated the group would provide a written request, although he did not think there would be many planned protests until the fall. “Our main strategy is for the fall when we’ll put more pressure on the administrators,” he said. He feared that even if the College was reinstated in the fall, “it wouldn’t have the same kind of budget as it did before.” Social Sciences College was founded in ' before closing date 1970 to study political economy and contemporary social issues from a radical perspective. In the course of this study, many members of the College included the study of Marxism, which has become the dominant trend in the College over the last two or three years. While the University claims that Social Sciences College was abolished because of questions concerning the qualifications of some instructors, a College spokesperson maintained that this was only a cover for the administration’s opposition to the political beliefs and activities of the College. The picketers chanted slogans charging Ketter and the College’s Dean, Irving Spitzberg, with violations of academic freedom in their decision to rescind the College’s charter. Additionally, the group claimed subliminally catchy; and that Ketter’s decision was undemocratic, since he refused to endorse the decision of the of the Chartering majority report Committee, which reviewed the College this past semester. The Committee majority report recommended “provisional approval” until January 1977, when the College’s charter is up for renewal. Social Sciences College plans to distribute its response to Ketter’s letter campus-wide, and to conduct a petition campaign the first two weeks of school in the fall session, culminating in a large rally. �Controversy Halfway-houses questioned by Paul Dluqosz county Spectrum Staff Winter Political and psychiatric groups in Buffalo are currently involved in a growing controversy over dispersal of mental patients throughout the community. The the dispute is centered around concentration of group treatment residences in certain neighborhoods, particularly along Elmwood Avenue. There are several types of “halfway houses,” a term which counselors who were interviewed by The Spectrum prefer to use. The biggest source of clients is the Buffalo Psychiatric Center, formerly called Buffalo State Hospital, which has cut its own in-patient population from over 4000 ten years ago to 650 today. This is part of a statewide policy of integrating mental patients into the community. About 606 former residents of the operated by the Center are now living in “family care drawn attention are those Youth, the for Division $50 week State N.Y. per family receives homes.” A Probation Department, and Catholic per patient to provide room, board and “some supervision” for persons until they Charities.

He maintained that he is not against “de-institutionalization” but opposes concentrating too According to many facilities in a few areas. proposed the office, Swift’s Councilman the geographical mapping directory, distribution of facilities in the county, “could be used as an argument against new centers in neighborhoods that have several halfway houses already.” Besides trying to influence department policy on site location, politicians can also use zoning regulations to try to block unwanted facilities. Last month a center for alcoholics in the Elmwood vicinity was refused a zoning permit on the grounds that the area was “saturated.” Local mental health professionals maintain that they have given adequate preparation in choosing clients and sites, with favorable results as compared to other areas. (One employee of a Rochester Psychiatric facility; reported that his unit to was given a quota of patients who had month, community each be placed in the regardless of whether the halfway houses or clients were ready. None of the local mental health professionals interviewed was aware of a similar policy locally.) Media focus Tom Nelson is a counselor at a Youth Division 'residence at 6 Courtland Avenue, which has seven youths and two counselors. He described the relationship with the neighbors as very good over the last six years, and said that most of the by family agencies. court, were referred the police,, or other Orndoff, director of stated that they have Services,, Transitional adequate supervision, with 54 counselors for the 160 clients, and the “successes far outnumber the failures.” However, he said that the media focused only on the occasional individual who attracts attention. He described the neighborhood response as “passive acceptance.” Residents are generally free to come and go, but a curfew or other restrictions may be used on an individual basis as needed. No one can be kept in a “halfway house” against their will, according to the Mental Hygiene Law. Omdoff said that the biggest criteria for selecting locations was the availability of large buildings for sale and access to public transportation and ' social services. Presently, the greatest concentration of halfway houses and family care homes is in the west-central part of Buffalo between Richmond and Fillmore Avenues. The lack public .suburbs generally transportation and other sections of Buffalo lack inexpensive, large buildings that would be suitable. It is possible that alternate systems of delivering mental health care might reduce the present concentration of facilities in certain neighborhoods, by designing different types of facilities and reaching people in the neighborhoods where they already live. However, a program of community education would be needed to reach more mentally ill people and prepare for greater community acceptance. Richard - Schizophrenia Soteria House alternative therapy Spectrum Staff and a commune.” Mosher is a proponent of a psycho-social theory of schizophrenia, which he views not ‘as a “disease” but instead as an altered state of consciousness in an individual who is experiencing a major crisis in living. This “crisis theory” is espoused at Soteria House. Non-professionals work with those persons deemed schizophrenic and guide them through their psychotic experiences, rather than repress their behavior (as with drugs and electroshock therapy). Mosher explained the function of nonprofessionals. “We believe that untrained, psychologically relatively unsophisticated persons can work within this theoretical framework more easily than highly trained ones because they have learned no theory of schizophrenia, whether psychodynamic, organic, or a combination of both. This allows them freedom to be themselves, to follow their visceral responses, to adopt a phenomenological stance, and to be a ‘person’ with the psychotic individual.” family by Victor Gulotta Writer As an alternative to hospitalization for people diagnosed “schizophrenic,” a therapeutic community called Soteria House has been developed in the San Fransisco Bay area. Dr. Loren R. Mosher, Chief of the Center for Studies of Schizophrenia at the National Institute of Mental Health and consultant psychiatrist at the community in San Fransisco refers to it as “a cross between an extended Nonheirarchical At Soteria there is no real medical heirarchy. No one carries out the roles of the doctor, nurse, attendant, patient staff and residents live and work together in a nonauthoritarian atmosphere. There is no kind of formal program of “therapy” and there is a minimal amount of structured activities. At Soteria, psychosis is viewed as a valid experience and the staff emphasizes understanding that experience rather than negating and aborting it. Even such extreme forms of behavior such as are allowed and seen as regression necessary for psychological growth. Mosher elaborated on his view of schizophrenia. “My position is that I don’t know what it is, and what I’d like to do is assume a stance that is most positive for the individual. If you assume that the person has a brain malfunction, that gives you a certain set of expectations about the person; but if you assume that the person is in a crisis and he’s got terrible problems, then you can approach him in a positive way.” Defending what some consider to be an overly optimistic stance he added, “I’m not denying the reality of odd, bizarre — Page two The Spectrum Friday, 30 July 1976 . . behaviors that one sees - the person needs help, obviously. We view that problem as a difficult one, but one that is change not without potential to change in a positive way.” some — Comparison of patients The Soteria project consists of an experimental group and a control group. The control group resides at Soteria, the experimental group is treated at a local community health center. All those persons deemed in need of hospitalization and formally doagnosed schizophrenic are admitted on the basis of their age (16-30), their marital status (single) and their medical history (little or no previous hospitalization). The Soteria people are guided and “treated” extra-medically by specially trained paraprofessionals. The control group (who meet the same criteria as the experimental group) are treated in a traditional psychiatric manner, characterized by a structured ward milieu, an orientation towards symptom suppression and an avoidance with close, prolonged, contacts. one-to-one interpersonal Mosher explained the results. “We find that in terms of symptoms, Soteria people get better as quickly and as well as the other people do, even though all of the control subjects in the hospital get phenothiazenes. The Soteria people still do as well over the short term and certainly over the longer term as the hospital patients do, although very few of the Soteria people get drugs while all of the hospital people do.” Reintegration Mosher identified the main difference between the two groups as being the degree of psychosocial functioning after discharge. “Soteria people are able to leave home; they begin go out and to live independently of their families or origin. Seventy percent of the people treated in the hospital go back home. At Soteria, about fifteen percent go back home the rest go out to be independent. This is associated with increased levels of community activity.” — Readmission rates are substantial at both places. As of now, roughly 45 percent of the control subjects will be back in the hospital. Among the Soteria subjects, it’s about 35 percent. Violent behavior at Soteria is dealt with in an interpersonal way. People exhibiting violent behavior are physically restrained by staff members if necessary, but no person is ever locked up. No type of mechanical restraints, such as wet packs and straight jackets, are ever used. The Soteria project is funded by two National Institute of Mental Health grants one supports the staff and the other supports the research. Mosher spoke of his opposers. “As we are becoming better known, organized psychiatry is beginning to get very unhappy with us. So far, we have survived. Organized psychiatry is not known for its openmindedness. I think that we have established a viable alternative to hospitalization for at least some people who are deemed schizophrenic. It certainly is more human.” — �Newcomers discover Buffalo during Freshman Orientation in it temporarily disrupted last year’s program and got the planriing off to a late start, Ferber said.

And this place is cheaper.” Another was surprized to see that Buffalo is “a big city.” “There’s mail service in Buffalo . . . there’s girls in Buffalo ■ • this isn’t such a bad place,” he said.

There was no fanfare, no celebration; in fact, some of us are still waiting for our fair share of springtime. After the long wait, Buffalonians are sure to take pleasure in the balmy months, even if they’re not jubilant. Aside from the Allentown Art Festival, which drew a throng of nearly 200,000, most summertime events here have been on a much smaller scale. Corner hangouts are. especially visible, and a stroll along any Buffalo street on a sunny day Will reveal backyard'pools and the hidden family activities dinner cookouts. On the whole, most people agree - it’s a quiet and restful atmosphere a drastic change from the high-pitched activity level during the rest of the school year. Replies to questions about summerlife in Buffalo ranged from “ideal” to “idle.” After racking his braih for several thoughtful moments, one summer resident decided that the most memorable event in his summer so far has been finding a job. Most people, when asked about interesting summer experiences here name activities outside the city. - In the city and out Zoar Valley attracts large numbers of students every summer with its deep shale gorge cut out by three rivers and a dramatic waterfall. In the same vicinity is Ashford Hollow, a small County town which houses Griffis Sculpture Park. On a clear moonlit night the twenty foot steel figures seem to parade gracefully over the rolling hills. Other events outside the city include Artpark theater productions and concerts, such as a Mozart marathon and Shakespearean plays. general Cattaraugus For the faithful urbanites, Buffalo offer*; a rollicking night life. Of course there’s the Eiuiwood strip, Anacone’s, and Central Park Grill (CPG). Some prefer the sound of jazz, or a Sunday poetry reading at Trafalmadore Cafe. And an excursion across town through the “ethnic quartet” of the Lower West Side will take one to Johnny’s Renevous Bar where 10,000 combinations of organic liquid ingredients reportedly will quench any thirst. City sports m Sports inthe city are winning over increasing numbers of fans each year and this summer the courts are packed with tennis players and the streets are congested wifh bicyclists. One popular route takes riders north through the city on Niagara Falls Boulevard (preferably on some other road for as long as possible) past Route 290. Just beyond Ellicott Creek Park is another left turn off the Boulevard to. Ellicott Park Creek Island where tall maples and log cabin style pagodas provide picnicing privacy even when the crowds are out. Fishing is also suppoed to be fair. And of course no discussion of urban sports should omit mention of frisbee, which jeapordizes parks, lawns and streets throughout Buffalo. Other park activities Include a Shakespearean drama on the hill overlooking Delaware Park pond. Nearby, in the albright Knox Art Gallery, strains of unusual musical fcompositions called “Evenings for New Music” could be heard. One piece by Yannis Xenakis contained six percussionists, surrounding the audience in different locations around the room, who produced the musical effect of city streets with cars rushing by and sirens blaring. With summer orientation here comes a variety of things to do pn campus including medieval sports games on the fourth of July, folk and blues coffeehouses, unlimited films often with screenings and discussions by the artists, and folk and square dancing. ... . • • . • • • • ... - TSUJIMOTO • • William Hinton to speak William Hinton, author of “Fanshen” and Chairman of the U.S.-China People’s Friendship Association will speak here on Thursday, August 5 at Acheson Hall, Room 70.

Recollections of the “Ketter Commission” put us in our place.

Composition Contributing .... To the Editor. In the last few weeks you have written and published much about the termination of Social Sciences College and my role in it. In the course of this brief letter, I cannot begin to respond in detail to the various assertions made and arguments offered in your pages. I wish only to suggest that there was no disagreement among any of the people reviewing Social Sciences College about the fact that Social Sciences College did not meet the letter or the spirit of the Prospectus and that the result of its policies was a program which was mediocre at best. The only disagreement among any of those reviewing the College was whether there was any hope for change in the future. 1 and many others, after extensive discussion, saw no prospect for meaningful change. No evidence has come forward since the President’s decision to indicate that that judgment was incorrect, and, indeed, further information from those who participated in the College as well as public statements by the graduate students in the College continue to confirm this judgment.

Editorial policy it determined by the Editor-in-Chief I am amused by the amount of power ascribed to me by some persons in the College and only wish that I had the authority to affect all presidential decisions in a way consistent with the views of the conspiracy theorists. There would be many changes around here. Let me conclude by indicating that I view the chartering process as being quite constructive in the life of the Colleges. My role in it is to make the most considered judgment possible. I must make quality judgments and defend them as I do here and as I have done in my report on Tolstoy College and Social Sciences College. Your readers may wish to note, although they could not know this from your pages, that my criticism of Social Sciences College has been matched by my enthusiastic defense of Tolstoy College. The future of the Colleges demands that all those associated with innovation in this University be prepared to make judgments of quality. Without such judgments, the future of the whole system will be at risk. record of the Irving J. Spitzberg, Jr Dean of the Colleges Keep Jerry Frye To the Editor. Editor-in-Chief Arts Judgements of qualify Dr.-Jerry Frye, instructor in the course on Mass Communication and Political Campaigns in the Speech Communications department, will have, his contract expire fh August, 1977. I was very sad, as I think was the whole class, to hear that Professor Frye’s position was terminated. Without knowing exactly why the department wants him out, I must respond by saying that the department will lose one of its most dedicated professors unless its policies are changed. Finding courses that are beneficial to studying mass media at this University is difficult; therefore my decision to take Professor Frye’s course was a good one. The reason that I have come to feel so strongly for the course is that Frye is an excellent lecturer. He goes over all the material in a precise manner that brings out the relevance of the subject. Also, he takes the time to explain even the simplest things and will correct any student’s misunderstandings. You have to work hard in his class, but all the work is justified in, the sense that it is not “busy work” but work that brings the student closer to the actual reality of the subject. Another positive aspect of his class is that it demonstrates a sense of openness; Professor Frye is very considerate of students’ opinions. To explain the rationality behind this attitude, let me allude to the first day of class. When I first walk into a new class, I normally feel alienated. Often I feel foolish if I have to ask a question. As a result of this my gain in some classes has been limited. Its been three weeks since the beginning of this class and contrary to my original feelings, I feel no intimidation. I owe much of the class’s success to Professor Frye. I really think this man cares about his students and that is something I wouldn’t say of every professor here I have had. The results of his methods in teaching have been a happy, productive and very together class. I only hope that other students at the University have a chance to be taught so professionally. Dimitri Papadopoulos Page four The Spectrum . . Friday, 30 July 1976 �Stratford Importance ofBeing Ernest' Arts Editor The Importance of Being Earnest is Oscar Wilde's masterpiece, a perfect piece of turn-of-the-century English satire, of which Wilde was the perverse master. The society it focuses on revolves around petty jealousies and deceptions and even less significant truths, but it transcends simple, albeit stunning,,triviality by virtue of a wit whose brilliance shines without the aid of much wisdom. The essential emotionlessness of Wilde's who make and break characters, engagements between the covers of diaries months before the unnecessary formality of actually meeting the errant fiance, leave babies in railway inadvertently station cloakrooms, and are perfectly capable of quitting the depths of lovelorn despair for the relative stability of bread-and-butter sandwiches at the softest rattle of a tea-tray, has long made the play a favorite of high school drama classes and amateur groups. But the production currently on view at the Stratford Festival, first mounted last summer by director Robin Phillips and revived this season with most of the same actors, proves once again the superiority of the Festival company and its guiding spirit. Wilde's plot is as convoluted as only a minor intrigue set up by people who have absolutely nothing better to do with their lives can be. John Worthing, young, country-squirish guardian to Cecily Cardew, invents a dissolute brother Ernest in order to be able to run off to London and be dissolute (always, of course, in poor Ernest's name) as often as he feels the need. His friend Algernon Moncrieff, on the other hand, has created an invalid friend named Bunbury, safely ensconced in the country, so that he can go Bunburying out of town whenever it becomes necessary to get away from his cousin Gwendolen Fairfax and her overbearing (to put it very, very mildly) mother, Lady Bracknell. Worthing poses as Ernest to court Gwendolen in town; Moncrieff assumes the same identity at the same moment to seek out and fall in love with Cecily in the and each, the men suddenly find country out, owes his immediate success to a sipgle disconcerting fact: both women are head over heels in love with the name Ernest. Its bearer hardly matters at all. — to jge, ack he 'ager less of toilette; the content, as bitter as his mother's mercenary motives. The elegantly polished surfaces come easily to the Festival actors (as to nearly any company with even a modicum of training and talent Wilde's characters are, after all, the collective personification of superficiality; hence, their great popularity among equally shallow performers). In fact, the relative ease with which these people can be gotten across with some degree of* after all, Wilde had done effectiveness makes really most of the work already more superlative productions perhaps difficult than usual and far more rare. The Stratford Company, however, has produced just that. — — - Wonderful cast The casting of William Hutt, one of its finest actors-, as the imperious Augusta Hutt Bracknell is a special masterstroke plays Lady Bracknell as broadly as the indeed, he/she towers over actor is tall everyone else onstage litBrally as well as and his slow-motion figuratively double-takes and hilariously horrible grimaces herald Bracknell's victory in every verbal scrimmage long before shft opens her tightly pinched month. Nicholas Pennell's Worthing is charmingly sincere, and Barry MacGregor's Moncrieff is as wonderfully devious, a suavely casual sophist who requires nothing more from life than a straight man and a sandwich. He and Marti Maraden, the sweet practicality of whose face and manner give the barest hint of a worldly sophistication more drastic than his own (the paper-bound engagement mentioned earlier was all hers) are a perfect pair. - — — Nice teeth Pat Galloway i* as adorably cruel as Gwendolen should be she is a fluffy little pet, but with fangs which she makes few but her twitchiness, attempts to conceal especially during the first act, is somewhat - of as i by Randi Schnur jn's — less than attractive; inexplicably, her mouth moves faster when she is quiet than it does when she speaks. The only minor disappointment among the cast is Amelia Hall, whose Miss Prism is a good deal too mousy; Wilde's Prism, of course, lacks the native wit and color of her employers (they wouldn't have it any other way), but in the context of Phillips' staging. Hall seems positively anemic. The deep browns and beiges of Daphne Dare's sets and Molly Harris Campbell's costumes set off Wilde's shimmering dialogue to perfection, just as the actors and director constantly play classically British restraint off against broad comedy, and with just as gorgeous an effect. No matter how many times you may have seen it performed already, the importance of this Earnest, which will run through September 12, makes it well worth the trip to Ontario. �OurWeekiy Reader Anna, by David Reed (New York, Basic Books, 1976). i Some years ago R.D. Laing and.others founded what they called the "anti-psychiatry," movement, which insisted that "ipsanity" and "mental illness" were terms defined by a society often blatant in its own madness. Rather'than viewing schizophrenia, for example, as a "mental illness" and treating it in the traditional' (usually ineffective) manner, the "anti-psychiatrists" held that a schizophrenic's perceptions of the world, while different, were still valid. It is only by treating these perceptions as valid and helping the patient think through them that she/he could return to the "normal" world. Mental institutions and traditional psychiatry have little, if any, place in Laingian therapy. The latest addition to the literature of radical psychiatry is Anna, written by "David Reed," the pseudonym of a British writer. He watched his wife "anna" go increasingly mad and finally die of self-inflicted bbrns. At the beginning of her madness, David decides that institutionalization is not the answer and resolves to keep Arina at home With loved ones to help Her work out her "mad" perceptions while showing her she is loved and needed. Reed's journal begins in the weeks leading up to Anna's initial breakdown. We learn she has been under therapy with a Laingian for several years, apparently trying to work through her problems: an overbearing mother who pushed her into marrying David rather than another man; the traumas from having grown up in wartime Germany; feelings of inferiority toward her husband, and even fear of him. The warning signs of the coming crisis were Anna's sudden preoccupation with writing reams of self-analytical letters, as well as an insistence she was pregnant because she had missed taking a single daily birth control pill. Thfen, at a London Underground (subway) station, "the dam burst" when Anna was convinced she and David were being followed, both by David's father and by the CIA. By the time David persuaded her to get on a bus for an unplanned visit to her therapist, she had worked herself into a — >■ frenzy. the Laingians and David over just how serious Anna's condition was. Laing himself comes to visit and to see Anna; he concludes that David is .overwrought and that she'll work out her problems in 9 month or two, given enough understanding. A "helper" insists to David that the family should strive to see the literal truth in her perceptions, even if they seem "insane." David disagrees; he feels that her family must provide a "normal" world that Anna can return to, whenever she is ready. In the end, Anna's problems are "solved" only by her death. For reasons she never explains, she sets fire to an automiblie (and herself), and dies several weeks later without ever regaining her "sanity." Whether Anna's case shows the bankruptcy of Laingian therapy, and of "anti-psychiatry" in general, is open to question. David never quite tells us what he thinks, although he drops inconclusive hints here and there. He refused to let the local mental hospital give her shock treatments, but now admits in retrospect that he, was "signing her death warrant." On the one hand he seems totally convinced of the worth of Laing's theories, to the extent that he cared for a clearly insane wife at involved, rather than home, despite committing her. On the other hand there is an underlying bitterness toward the Laingians that surfaces in many places. . Perhaps no therpay yet known would have allowed Anna to lead a normal, anxiety-free life, yet the circumstances of her death are precisely those mental institutions prevent; whatever else their failings, they at least keep gasoline and matches away from patients who have self-destructive tendencies. Had she been given conventional treatment, Anna might have lived long enough for therapy to work. We'll never know. Anna is a profoundly depressing book, as you might have guessed. David is a writer by profession and has painstakingly (and painfully) laid out in journal form the progress of Anna's final struggle with herself. Every portentous incicent is examined, as is David's continuous anguish and doubt over how to respond in a way most helpful to Anna, And it is a highly frustrating book, as well: Anna, David, and the Laingians all fail in the end. Anna is, nonetheless, highly recommended; perhaps it is even necessary reading for those interested in psychology, particularly radical psychology. David sincerely wanted to understand his wife's madness, as Laing himself counseled. But a warning unless you are a serious student of psychology, and madness, expect Anna to thoroughly ruin your day, if not your week. Mike McGuire between ' In the next few weeks Anna would lose control of bodily functions, imitate various animals, make holes in walls and in windows for her to "escape" (what?), would go mute for days on end and into catatonic fits, would "run away" from her house, then wait for family members to "find" her, and would develop an Ultimately fatal fascination with fire. David coped with most of this him?elf, helped by Anna's therapist and various trained "helpers" who visited during crucial periods.

Outside Inn Concert. Nils Lofgren is adequate, but not nearly spectacular by Jim Switala Spectrum Music Staff From his early days as a back-up musician for Neil Young and Crazy Horse to the recent release of his third solo album, Nils Lofgren has proven to be one of the most innovative rock musicians of the seventies. Last Thursday night it took him a seventy-minute set of electrifying punk-rock riffs to convince the greater-than-capacity crowd that his status is more than just heresay. He opened the set with the title cut of his most recent album. Cry Tough, which contains his best developed material to date and is the major factor in his new-found success. The song itself, now being pushed on the AM waves, is a perfect example of Lofgren format: a the well-balanced survey of Nils soft-but-stern vocals, conveniently punctuated midway through by a hard-driving, intricate jgtiitar solo. This was followed by another song off the same album entitled "It's Not A Crime." Again Nils is featured on vocals and guitar, but this time the tempo is a little faster; a more complex solo was interjected this time, and Nils is equal to the task, and lightning fast. Very impressive. Lofgren format By the third song the crowd was to their feet; hands clappin' and heads bobbin' while Nils played alternate phrases on piano and, guitar. It was a rhythmic, overpowering piece that seerried to compound the funky mood of the audience with every note Nils played on both instruments. The microphones died out during this song, just as they did on a number of others later, but this had no effect on the ever-increasing emotional ties between him and his fans. Nils could do no wrong. Only one problem existed at this point. It was all beginning to sound the same. What had once been the Lofgren format was now the Lofgren formula, providing Page six The Spectrum FRiday, 30 July 1976 . . too strong a constant throughout the majority of his material. Everything sounds the same? That's crazy! Even the drinks Sorry diehards, but it was evident that becoming quite evening. Sure he does a good job in juggling the variables, but ih the end it's all the same: Nils sings. Nils takes a solo. Nils sings again, end of the song. Why, Nils even ordered the same drinks for the band all night. This unidirectional attitude may very well be one Nils wishes to keep for awhile, but whether it is or not is irrelevant. The point is that Lofgren is not strong enough to carry the band all evening, nor does anyone want him to. Other than "Beggar's Day," (a song Nils wrote for Crazy Horse) and "Jailbait," (probably the best cut off the new album), everything else seemed to sound the same. So near yet so far And it's really too bad. It would compliment him so much more to have musicians he could work with better, trading solos; maybe some different vocals occasionally, etc. But as it stands right now, Lofgren is not god and even his expertise can get dull. One final point is also in need of discussion. I did not mean to say that Lofgren has neither been associated with quality musicians ndr had their assistance on his albums. The personnel on the Cry Tough album (namely Wornell Jones on bass and Ansley Dunbar on drums) along with the excellent production genius of Al Kooper are responsible for the tightness of the album. So, a although it was we 11-received performance Thursday night, it was one which possessed neither consummate talent nor artistic sensibility.

The dazzle has worn away from its technique, and its references to the political assassinations of the '60's have lost their keenest edges. The fading of the accompanying flash has revealed a work whose strength, skill and conviction assure its ability to stand on its own, minus its value as a novelty. I expect The Serpent to endure, and the Commedia Repertory Company’s fine production at the Allentown Community Center is worth seeing because it boldly illuminates the production's strengths. Van Itallie's theme that our violent acts are our legacy from the — is an first sin in the Garden of Eden, and the murder of Abel accessible one, stated clearly; its clarity is, in fact, atypical for open theatre, but beneficially so. It's well served by being cast as a "ceremony;" the play uncoils with the power of a liturgy, with the creation, betrayal, and death stark simplicity of the timeless reduced to their essences. — — Mass Any production of The Serpent stands or falls on the strength of its cast, and the Commedia troupe, under Steven Porter's direction, more an an shows great ability and sensitivity as an ensemble ensemble, in fact, than as individuals. Their sympathy to the play, and to each other, is the source for many affecting moments. From a quasi-religious opening, we progress to a depiction of the J.F.K. assassination, punctuated with gunfire, repeating like an endlessly rereeling nightmare. The sin that this reflects is seen in the temptation of Eve, with all of the tnales in the cast forming a sinuous, serpentine tree; those same males are to declare the wrath of God, their bodies twisted into distorted, jagged postures. The link between modern man and these first forebearers is direct: neither the end nor the beginning." We have "I'm in the middle returned to the beginning, and are in the middle. Van Itallie can only infer what the end may be and wisely so. One additional comment: I was heartened by the "community" nature of the audience at the performance I attended. Far from being an expected clientele, fully half the audience was native West Siders, one of whom regaled us with an impromptu rendition of an Italian song. "I've never seen anything like that in Buffalo," was a friend's delighted reaction; no less gladdening than that spontaneity was the Center’s bringing many of the audience their first exposure to non-traditional theatre. — ..

RECORDS - # — . — " — . — Page eight The Spectrum . . Friday, 30 July 1976 Prodigal Sun �by R. Gilbert Special to The Spectrum “New Journalist” Hunter S. Thompson has gained fame and notoriety from his undeniably unique approach to political reporting. Thompson’s work has not always been “political.” He first reached some kind of recognition writing national articles and a book on the Hell’s Angels in the early sixties. His style at this point really bore no resemblance to his spiked and barbed words of today. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas came like a king-hell bat out of the sixties drug scene, with its free-wheeling-and-constantlywrecked lifestyle. His writing had changed by this time. The continual use of perjorative and degenerate adjectives, and a keen story-telling mind made the tale an excellent book in the beat tradition, especially that of Neal Cassidy. But Neal didn’t spend his life holed up in a secluded corner of Colorado, or in suites atop the Washington Hilton, making his living with type and hype. This is a curcial difference, with a though the political reflection politics in Las Vegas lie most in its support of ruling class attitudes. Probably his most well-known work, it was written in 1969—70, and is the tale of his journey to Las Vegas primarily to cover a national D.A.’s conference on drug abuse. The narrative is “nobody does unbelievable but it has a things like that” distinct appeal. Hunter (Dr. Gonzo) and his attorney (a mammoth Saoan) are constantly doing the most abusive and scintillating of drugs while ripping off swank hotels and making fools of country cops, fat maids, Okies, and other straight “outback” rednecks. This is indeed incisive social commentary, conVeyed in a most original manner if an elitist derision of the lower classes, can be considered original. his liberal with squares that honest and any assumption rational candidate could unseat Nixon in ’72. Honest political differences Though severely handicapped with biases such as these, his writings' are also limited by 'the only restricted criticisms he does make. He dumps on Humphrey, and fellow hacks mercilessly, but only secondarily for their political stands. He emphasizes the dishonesty and closed personal approach that Nixon\ people’s movements that are the only real support for freedom. And so it is with Hunter. It is not the substance of the existing order that is at issue, rather the prinicple of honesty in what is essentially a “workable system.” Actually, Thompson has a lot in common with most politicians, not just liberals he never says what he’s for. He covers with for explicit support Acid, Amnesty and Abortion, but the substantive issues such as full employment, urban crises or the defense are never budget — hopelessly and unresponsive corrupt. What he does say implies that through some disgusting mischance or scheme (the Devil’s societies’ scum has risen to the surface to rule us all, and with God’s will, we can collectively skim it off to reveal the clean water of the American political system below. As he wrote: The Tragedy of all this is that George McGovern is one of the few men who’ve run for President of the United States in century this really who — ' ... Guest Opinion — — — — ' - amyl-mescaline-ether combinations. Some of his snottiness also seems to have ebbed in thinking and writing about the campaign he must have become more aware of the negative political content inherent in his northern-liberal disdain. Equating the lower uneducated and' unsophisticated masses with fascism and stupidity hardly — Flaws Ana what defines that which is most interesting in Hunter’s work, his writing style? It too has political content content manifest in a way of looking at the world a flawed method of negating the positive urge in us all to change that part,of our reality with which we are dissatisfied. This flaw is the cychicism that pervades his work. His implicit assumption that most of society is hopelessly reactionary, and his experience watching that “decent man” George McGovern, go down in flames, have combined of late to make him even more rambling, less to the point, and more cynical than ever before. In fact, Hunter is barely readable anymore, and that’s why. Thompson’s is the cynicism of a person hopelessly trapped in the restrictive confines of looking for change from within the system and having to make all the contradictions in our American capitalist society fit into the narrow framework of ruling class ideology and morality. Cynicism, totil and all-encompassing, can bring all apparent inconsistencies to heel, because one needn’t think about them. Consciously refuse to ponder a contradiction, and it is no longer necessary to act to resolve it. The system can accept this, is not threatened by even virulent criticism, so long as it is non-militant anti-militant or (insiStant the nothing need be done because nothing can be done). Hunter’s recent endorsement of Jimmy Carter demonstrates his complete collapse as a viable political commentator, but that viability never really existed. boils down to a Hunter counter-culture version of the New York Times critical (even outraged) at dishonest politics, but respectful of honest political differences never critical of the system, merely the Establishment. This has finally left Hunter with hack writing and pointless — — Mellowing The general thrust of this book, however, is perfectly in tune with the modern day of “democractic” notion freedom: freedom to be however, whatever, and wherever one wants to be. Too bad the maids, bellboys and rednecks Thompson constantly derides don’t exactly have that freedom, tied as they are into their faimlies and their place on the economic ladder. This plain, though undeclared, chauvinism is continued in Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail ’72, though not to such an extreme. This book is the sum of his writings for Rolling Stone as he followed the campaign trail of the 1972 presidential election from the New Hampshire primary to November election night. A couple of years has passed since Las Vegas and he was off “hard drugs” meaning, 1 assume, cocaine and high-powered blotter acid as well as such oddities as the incedible and adrenochrome was quite which Hunter impressed. Unbelievably, Hunter only repeats, with variations, that this speech was perhaps the finest he has heard. So fine was this speech that it is his major reason for supporting Carter. Hunter writes that Jimmy has yet, on the campaign trail ’76, to begin to equal the quality of that Spring ’75 Law Day Speech, and that in his personal interviews, they have differences. political severe Without telling us anything about Jimmy Carter politically, Hunter gives him unrestricted praise, mostly because he likes the man. As political journalism, this piece is worthless, but even as readable prose it has little to offer. His originality and humor are markedly absent or stale. It seems, however, only to be the a chain of final link in decaying progressively commentary that never had much substance. characterize the scum-encrusted Old Guard. Identical or more conservative political positions, dressed with “clean” up politicians, receive only muted criticism or, as in the cases of McGovern and Jimmy Carter, broad support. The operative phrase here is honest political “respecting differences.” This is the liberal principle which is the basis for such actions as the libertarian American Civil Liberties Union defense (ACLU) supplying lawyers for the KKK and Nazi Party. To the ACLU, it is the ephemeral principle ot freedom that is the issue, not the substance of fascism and racism. Defending the principle of freedom that is seen as on a higher plane than defending the broad democratic discussed. And nothing serious is ever said about ajiy left alternative, least of all socialism. No basis Of course, he implies that he is on the progressive side of these issues, but why won’t he come out and tell us? In taking few concrete stands, he can avoid substantive criticism by leaving us with nothing but his feelings to find flaws with. Hunter doesn’t come off as unclear and ill-defined as he is, however, the reason he can avoid specifics and re-route our reading of him is that he ties into all our discontents with the system without showing us the social or economic basis for them. He never probes into why the political is establishment in America understood what a fantastic monument to all the best instincts of the human race this country might have been, if we could have kept it out of the hands of greedy little hustlers like Richard Nixon. Simplistic Now that's simplistic analysis. of the reality The political-economic him escapes interconnection entirely. As such, he is necessarily reduced to thinking in terms of analyzing when personalities political movement.

Executive, Vice President Albert Somit has been recommended to replace him as Acting President by Ketter and the Executive Committee of the College Council, and is awaiting approval from the Board of Trustees. The six month sabbatical was labeled “normal” by an administration spokesperson, and is a requirement of the five year review procedure mandated by the State University of New York (SUNY) Board of Trustees. In a letter announcing his sabbatical, Ketter said that normally he would have taken his leave last year after the review of his tenure in office. However, due to a number of unspecified “factors,” he explained, “it was preferred that the leave be delayed.” “Earlier this summer I asked the Chancellor to seek approval from the Board [Ernest Boyer] of Trustees for my taking the study leave this fall,” Ketter said.

According to an Administration spokesperson, Somit’s appointment to Temporary President during Ketter’s absence, although recommended by Ketter and the Executive Committee of the College Council, will not become finalized until the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees meets and discusses the matter on August 4. The recommendations have been forwarded to the Chancellor’s office, and will then be presented at the Executive Committee meeting. Rumors that Ketter would resign as President of this University after his study leave were termed “groundless and pure speculation” by an administration spokesperson.

One place hot to look is the athletic Bubble on the Amherst campus: the $250,000 facility has been closed since May. There is apparently nothing wrong with it, but for unknown reasons the air-supported recreational facility has remained shut all summer. An individual connected with the Athletic Department indicated that the decision to close the Bubble may have been motivated by the increased summer heat. Another person suggested that the University could not afford to pay student monitors. However, fans are available, and money is continuously being spent on electricity to operate the generators that keep the structure inflated 24 hours a day. The enclosed bubble is 250 feet long, 120 feet wide, and fifty feet high. It contains four tennis courts, four basketball courts, a running track, three universal weight-lifting machines, a high jump bar and cushion, hurdles, equipment for volleyball and badminton, and showers and changing rooms. This spring the University baseball team practiced in the bubble when the weather was poor. Open to some? This summer, a reporter for The Spectrum observed several individuals using the facilities inside the bubble, after it was closed to the general University community, Executive Vice President Albert Somit has used the tennis courts, and apparently has access to keys to the facility. During the school year, the bubble was open to the University from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. and was often overcrowded. The bubble was closed most of the day, except for a couple of gym classes, and was from 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. Clark gym is open only until open 7 p.m. this summer.

Pinkertons 403 Main St. Equal Opportunity Employer Sailor, Trouble (Epic) Trouble is an album that you can put up there with your Sparks, lOcc, Move, Abba and Hollies discs. Well, in all fairness, it really shouldn’t be right up there with them maybe a notch or two below, but certainly not as low as the Bay City Rollers or even Elton John. As you may have guessed. Sailor’s music is that bright, bubbly, exuberant, unabashed variety of pop the type that goes to number one in milliseconds on British charts and scarcely makes a murmur on this side of the Atlantic. If I had to make a comparison between them and another group, I would say their sound is closest to that of Sparks. The high energy and straight-ahead melodies are usually there; in fact, “Stop That Man” could almost be Sparks if they lowered their voices and did not rely so much on keyboards. However, Sailor is fairly original and quite distinct from other bands. There are several reasons why Trouble is not right up there with the pop “biggies.” One of them is a lack of'consistency. Good albums mostly have songs which are above average, and at most one or two which are inferior. Not so with Trouble. Three cuts: “Glass of Champagne,”' “Girls, Girls, Girls” and “Trouble in Hong Kong” are absolutely brilliant, both in conception and execution. (“Girls, Girls, Girls” is particularly noteworthy because of the way it, combines twenties and seventies pop styles.) Then there are several good pieces like “Coconut” and “Stop That Man” nothing really spectacular, but they do keep the album going. At the bottom are a couple of slow, boring cuts which tend to drag the album down. These variations in quality unfortunately give Trouble an uneven feeling. Most good pop songs rely on a fair amount of energy to succeed, while their lyrics usually depend on witty and/or intelligent themes. This is generally true of the material on Trouble, although it is far from the calibre of lOcc or early Sparks. Georg Kajanus, who wrote all of the songs and sings them as well, alternates between ballads and reflections on experiences with love. Regrettably, they are a bit too simplistic for the genre, and they are not helped at all by some of the rhyme schemes. Who would ever try to rhyme Panama with camera ? This review is beginning to sound rather negative, isn’t jt? It really shouldn’t, because this album’s defects (and it has enough of them) are not sa serious that they can’t be corrected. What Sailor has going for it is an ability for writing good melodies that do not require a lot of complicated instrumental work to keep them interesting. The group also has the talented production team of Jeffrey Lesser and Rupert Holmes, who give Trouble a full but uncluttered sound. Sailor is a band I’ll have to try to remember, because they show a great amount of promise. Provided they don’t grow tired of their style, it should be only a matter of tune and experience before we’ll be able to put them right up there with lOcc, Abba and all the rest. -Eugene Zielinski — — — Tracy Nelson, Time Is On My Side (MCA) Let it first be said that Tracy Nelson is a damn fine singer:, at the moment there Is no one who is significantly better at singing the gospel-XX rich, blues-tinged songs of the woman done wrong. Bonnie Raitt, for example, is more like poet Diane Wakoski, “dancing on the grave of a son-of-a-bitch,” more spirited (in every sense). When Tracy hurts, though, she feels it as deep as it goes, and she brings the feeling across with amazing power and intensity; if it wasn’t rock, I think I could get away with calling it poignant. Let it also be said that Tracy, after about a decade of trying in every conceivable situation, has yet to put out a record that takes her full measure. She’s done a couple of good albums with Mother Earth and a nice solo Bring Me Home and Tracy Nelson/Mother Earth effort, Poor Man ’4 Paradise. But even these were basically good half-records; all of her albums have had stretches where the songs were dull, the playing uninspired, and Tracy was either out of her depth, unconcerned, or both. The worst records simply had more of this than the others. The culprit is elusive; the obvious suspect is the producer, but even Bob Johnston, with Dylan, Simon and Garfunkel, and Leonard Cohen under his belt, couldn’t turn the trick. Neither does Jimmy Bowen here, though Time Is On My Side is far from the worst. If further proof of Tracy’s talent is needed, consider that none of the songs on this album is really that good. But they seem that good (some of them), solely because of what Tracy does with them, giving them more life than they can justly lay claim to. So why are the other songs so lackluster? (No tune ever had a more apt title than Let The Memory Fade.”) Tracy's range can't be faulted, either; when she dives into An Arm And A Leg,” with that soul-shattering wail, and “The Woman In Your Heart,” it satisfies as much as the spiritual aura of “Sudden Changes” and Jerry Ragovoy’s title song. But “Couldn’t Do Nothin’ Right” doesn’t work in its high-energy, quasi-disco arrangement. It’s much better suited to the low, burnt-out quality Jerry Walker gave it on hisIt’s A Good Night For Singing. because most of the songs that don’t fit into Tracy s Maybe strongest suit don’t succeed that the album has a sense of sameness to it. I don’t like having to say this; Tracy has the potential to turn out the best record of whatever year, so it’s all the more tragic that so little of her work is more than “above average.” A better, more consistent choice of songs would help. Sometimes, on Time Is On My Side, Tracy actually sounds bored; whether with the music per se or with what has been a decade of small victories and defeats, I don’t kno«. Whatever producer, writer, or session band wakes Tracy Nelson up will have earned our undying gratitude; Bill Maraschiello for now, she’s still a slumbering giant. campus on Winspear. $87.50+, Sept. 1, no pets, garage option.

The elimination of SUS has left the four SUNY Centers about $1 million short of the funds needed to grant tuition waivers to all eligible graduate students. In the past, financial aid for graduate students has been provided by SUS funds, the Tuition Assistance Plan (TAP) ( for in-state students only) and the tuition waiver pool. There are about 1800 graduate students here eligible for full or partial support. Earlier this mohth Graduate School Dean MacAllister Hull announced several steps the University would take to close the gap in tuition waiver funds. However, Union Graduate Students Employee (GSEU) President Howard Kling voiced strong objections this week to the measures announced by Hull, saying they would hurt students and blaming the University for not lobbying for the SUS funds. GSEU members also implied that the attempts to close the tuition waiver gap would fall short of their goal. Hull’s proposals basically aim at reducing the level of claims on the tuition waiver funds by requiring emancipated-" American-born students to declare New York State residency and by asking research assistants to reduce their summer enrollment “where it would not hurt them.” Reduced enrollment Hull said research assistants are being asked by their departments to reduce their summer enrollments because graduate students often complete their degrees with more than the required credit hours. If a PhD candidate registered for six credits of thesis guidance could reduce his enrollment tfl a single credit, this would reduce his students. If is not known how many could have availed foreign students themselves of the withheld $60,000. A spokesman in the Student Affairs office believed the number would be small, and claim on the tuition waiver pool, and may save up to $72,000 out of the $207,000 set aside for the summer session tuition waiver pool, according to Hull. Hull reported at a meeting earlier in July that five of the six departments with students who may be 'able to reduce their enrollments have already complied. He added that students should not be asked to reduce their enrollment in courses which , they really need. Hull suggested that out-of-state students file for in-state residency because in-state tuition is lower than out-of-state tuition and would reduce the claims on the tuition waiver pool, and because TAP money is available to in-state residents. Hull said that in-state residency is easily obtained, but added that each student must apply for TAP and have one year residency in order to obtain the TAP money. If all out-of-state students $Jid this, lull estimated $110,000 could be saved.Additionally, Hull cited as a possible source of funds for tuition waivers for $60,000 graduate foreign students remaining in the budget of the Foreign Student Tuition Waiver Program. The Foreign Student Financial Aid Committee, Of which Associate Graduate School Dean Andrew Holt is a member decided to withhold the $60,000 in case there was not enough money in the tuition waiver pool graduate and teaching foreign for assistants. Ordinarily, this money would be reserved for new, needy foreign students who apply to the University without the sponsorship of an overseas study program, or to open new categories of eligibility for aid. ■ However, there is still up to $16,000 available to new, non-sponsored foreign said the University’s primary committment was to those students already enrolled. GSEU criticisms Kling GSEU President said the to University’s stated committment covering the tuition waiver gap was similar to promises made earlier in the year by President Robert Ketter about SUS funds which his administration eventually failed to obtain. The State University decided not to make restoration of SUS a part of its supplemental budget request. At this University, the schools of Law and Pharmacy did receive SUS allocations; they were specifically permitted to lobby with the Division of the Budget by the Chancellor’s office, through which all lobbying in the State University must be cleared. The Division of the Budget has final say on what items are included in budgets submitted to the Legislature. Kling maintained that the SUS funds should never have been lost, and that the State University did not apply sufficient pressure to have them restored. Kling said Hull’s proposals wovtlcl. hurt foreign students immediately and other groups in the near future. He said the measures would set precedents which will lead to further cuts. He cited summer session credit deductions as an example, by determined calling policy it cost-accounting rather than educational considerations. He claimed the administration has in the past cut departments because of lowered credit hours, especially in the humanities and social sciences. Natural sciences, grad education emphasized RHHNtf OH THE by Nancy Ellett Campus Editor The for this prospectus Uiversity as put forth in the final Report on the Future of the University from the President’s Committee on Academic Planning, includes a trend toward graduate and professional education and an emphasis on the natural sciences. And before long students may be seeing a return to five-course a load and a tightening-up on grade inflation. The Commission said there should ideally be a balance between the humanities and science in order to provide a broadly based curriculum. But the natural sciences have been slated for the bulk of attention. The report recommends that past achievements in the basic and applied natural sciences and the post-baccalaureate programs combine, consistent with societal demands, to define the basis for the future development of the University. This mission will be based on a university model derived from the concept, with “land-grant” Continual concern for both public service and fundamental scholarship. This contrasts with other notions of universities, such as the Ivy League ideal of not self-generated reserach FUTURE OETHE UHI1/ER$EEV accountable to external demands. The reprecussions of the definition are great and place the university in a position of responsibility with regard to the needs and demands of society. The committee recommended a shift in the balance between undergraduate graduate and education to a 60:40 ratio. This will require a 5 percent increase in post-baccalaureate degrees awarded over present figures (with a corresponding decrease in Undergraduate numbers). When by reckoned credit hour enroUment, the margin of increase in the graduate population will be 14 percent. Certain operational improvements be are to considered in a period of study and discussion designed to evaluate the present four-course load. The current allegations of grade inflation should be studied through publication of grade distributions. The Report made suggestions for redirection of various academic areas, straying little from the interim report published in February. Chemistry and the applied natural sciences were singled out for commendation, with particular emphasis on clinical programs. The area of Educational Studies is slated for a reassessment of purposes. Regarding the humanities, which are referred to as basic to any ideal of comprehensive education, “societal demand does not currently suggest growth” in that area. While aware of the pitfalls of “career education” (for personal rather than societal goals Report concerns), the recommends modifications of traditional education in humanities, anthropology, history and foreign languages in the direction of opening new career options in order to be consistent with projected national trends in student interests. The Commission stressed an increasing concern with providing an education coincident with the needs of a complex technological society, calling for the “development of the professional as an organizer and manager of knowledge and resources.” In response to this ideal a liberal studies major was proposed for upper division students (junior and senior standing). It would be very selective and provide a rigorous integrated opportunity for “disciplined intellectual and creative self-development.” Several changes were proposed to move the departments toward centralization with some shared theme. One of these recommendations involved the formation of a department of languages and literature. Another planned localization of related departments would see the creation of a Department of American Cultures. This would locate the present departments of Black Studies, Puerto Rican Studies, American Studies, Native American Studies, Women’s Studies, Judiac Studies, Urban --continued on page 2— �Drop-In Center Erie County A major tax hike Harridan basement, oj *ers immediate The Drop-In Center, located in Room 67S The sfi iff consists of comiriunity. the University of to member counseling any to talk with volunteers-students, staff, and faculty who are trained So there is too much on your if listen. help with problems.

The announced tax hike and cutbacks, which he blamed on rising welfare costs, have already set off a storm of protests among public employee unions, citizen groups and legislators. In order to meet a projected $20.6 million deficit for 1976, the County has already allowed 740 positions to remain vacant and department heads have been directed to carry out most of the layoffs by September. The reductions would also affect a variety of independent contract agencies that receiye all or part of their funds from the County For example, the Mental Health Department, which subsidizes organizations for counseling, psychiatry anc crisis intervention, would cut its total grants from $7.5 million in this year’s budget to $5.8 million in 1977. The Narcotics Guidance Council which received $61,295 last year, would lose its funding completely. Other hard hit programs include public health services, Erie Community College and \ Meyer Memorial Hospital. -~\ ' Garter runs strong in WNY by Bert Black Special to The Spectrum Jimmy Carter’s only worry NEW YORK during his stay here last week at the Democratic Convention was the possibility of other Democrats not worrying enough about his opposition. - Last Wednesday’s New York State Caucus meeting a rather disorganized, motley crew was graced with Carter’s unannounced appearance.

Carter characterized Mondale as having “a great feeling of understanding, comprehension and compassion.” Carter also said that Mondale had “the trust of a wide range of Democrats.” Questioned about his reasons for selecting the vice presidential candidate, Carter said that he had established only two criteria; general compatibility with Carter’s political philosophy; and the ability to step into the office of the presidency in case Carter should somehow become incapacitated.

Its budget last year was balanced expenditures, in the only by projecting a $40 million drop in government would and the federal improve economy would hope the increase its share. This did not occur, however. In 1975 and 1976 increasing numbers of persons exhausted their unemployment benefits and became eligible for welfare. At the same time several tax-paying industries, such as Western Electric, announced plans to leave the area. Although the Department of Social Services has received the biggest share of blame for the tax increase, its share of the total county budget has actually decreased from 50 percent in 1971 to 47.5 percent in Regan’s proposed budget.

County employees are represented by several unions, some of which have recently opposed each other in representation elections. Union leaders have accused Regan of making irresponsible tax cuts in the three years preceding his re-election year in 1975, as well as committing the County to excessive long-term expense in subsidizing Rich Stadium and the Convention Center. Much protest has also centered on the issue of library cutbacks. The County Executive has publicly criticized librarians for allegedly pressuring patrons to sign petitions as they check out books. Librarians and their supporters, led by Legislator Susan Lubick (D., Buffalo) staged a march and rally in front of the Rath Building July 15, . protesting cuts.

Each registration and course scheduling problems find a number of students angry, disillusioned and frustrated. Walter Kunz, who will become Acting Undergraduate Dean on August 1 upon the departure of Dean Charles Ebert (leaving on sabbatical), believes the major function of his office to be the place where the run-around ends. ‘The buck stops here,” he stressed in an interview Tuesday. Kunz said that there must be one or two offices on campus with enough knowledge and authority to be able to solve or help assist all academic problems on campus. He usually sees between 30 and 40 students a week. He sees the other functions of his job as directing the.Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE), seven which includes the and undergraduate faculties advisement, arid determining the curriculum and academic policy in conjunction with the Faculty Senate.

The University is a very large place, “by definition of a bureaucracy,” and Kunz feels that it may not be the place for some students, but for others he thinks the University offers unlimited possibilities, with programs that are excellent in the social sciences, humanities, and natural sciences. However, he also conceded that because of the size and nature of the University, it is possible for students to spend four years here and receive a poor education, and he emphasizes that We're the HOUSE Of BAMBOO” “ Roody?...

Yet the Graduate Record Exam’s (GRE) socres are lower, especially the parts dealing with vocabulary and writing abilities. Kunz, who was once a high School English teacher, says, “It distresses me somewhat that people could get a BA in this University without taking a course in English. He supports the idea of course and, in fact, wrote his own proposal for such a course right before the Faculty Senate drew up its draft. “What I want to do above everything else is to develop the individual’s power of creative and critical thought.” Kunz has held a clinical appointment in the health related sciences and feels that in regard to the relationship between himself and the students, there is not much difference between teaching and administrative work. He prefers working at the University to his high school career, explaining that as a high school teacher, his role had to be more of a disciplinarian. Concerning the high schools, he believes “we need a lot more reserach into learning theory, motivation, and the working of the mind; the subsequent mechanics grading and curricular approach will fall into place.” a mandatory writing Advisement Early Advisement was another big issue this summer that resulted in controversy between members of the Orientation staff, DUE, and the Student Association. While the concept of Early Advisement has its merits, Kunz said, “1 am aware that advisement is only one of the aspects of Orientation.” In this venture, Kunz said “we must all cooperate.” DUE difficult Advisement is made with the flexibility, complexity and number of course options, coupled with the fact that it is, of a voluntary nature. advisors do an excellent job, working within the constraints and there are few problems or criticisms,” he said.

Kunz does not believe that the demise of the College will hinder the other Colleges. “Each College has to rise and fall On its own merits.” However, he does feel that the Colleges will be hurt by the budget cuts, although he claims that the cuts have probably leveled off. .

Page three �EditPrial Market economy education Once stripped of its academic jargon, Committee Report on the Future of the University reveals an adequate but unenlightened prospectus. The basic ideals to which it pays lip service are praiseworthy, but unfortunately this philosophy is not translated into actual recommendations. Isspes which will have a profound impact upon students consolidation of departments and evaluation of grading procedures are muffled in vague and confusing language, while minor points are dramatized. What are the lofty goals to which the Commission subscribes? A comprehensive education is called for, balanced between the humanities and science. "The humanities without the sciences are incomplete; the sciences without the humanities are dangerous," they assert. The University must also respect the needs and demands of society, they say, without falling prey to the dangers of "career education." But once these ideals are stated, the Report recommends steps away from a liberal education, which lead in the reverse direction away from a concern with socially aware students, and toward a job-oriented education. Instead of a committment to improve the areas promising insights into social processes and cultural dynamics as its ideals would indicate, we see an emphasis on classical literature. If the Committee'S concern is to produce individdals with awareness of contemporary issues, the stress should be on anthropology, sociology, political science and history, areas in which they say student interest is waning. If a balanced education means equal parts of applied science and classics, then the Committee is missing the point. This attitude would be consistent, however, with recent admjnistrative decisions such as the dismissal of the Social Sciences College. After showing a keen awareness of all the pitfalls of educating students for specific occupations changes in the job market, difficulty in preparing for even entry level jobs, shortening of career ladders it concludes that "growth is limited by support and demand" and that society's negative view of a liberal education must be taken into account. In other words, let's do it anyway. This- reduces the commodity of education to.the principles of a market economy let us supply what society demands. Should the demands of society dictate the direction of scholarly interests? Should intellectual growth be determined by today's job market? One need only look around at the thousands of unemployed teachers in our society products of career speculation to answer these questions. The Committee's false concern with a liberal, well-balanced education is further revealed in its plans for an upper division undergraduate liberal arts program. It will admit an elite intellectual few who, in their first two years of education, have proven themselves fit?for this rigorous training. Apparently gone is the ideal of a liberal arts education for all.who desire it. The sensitivity of the Commission to internal political problems f between the administration and faculty is one area which is deserving of praise. Hopefully the higher echelons of the administration will heed their advice to improve communications with the rest of the university community and avoid confrontations, such as was recently witnessed in the resignation of a large segment of the School of Pharmacy. The content of this important document, which deserves the attention of every student concerned with the direction of education in this state, consists of ideals which somehow elude themselves when translated into a plan of action. A response is called for which will demand an education that inspires political awareness, social consciiousness and critical judgement in determining the future of pur :iety and quality of life in America. — — — — — — — — The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. 7 Friday, 23 July 1976 Editor-in-Chief — Richard Korman Managing Editor Laura Bartlett Managing Editor Fredda Cohen Advertising Manager Gerry McKeen Business Manager Howard Greenblatt — — - — Arts • Bill Maraschiello .

Page four . The Spectrum Friday, 23 July 1976 . Throat-cutting . To the Editor I would like to comment on the letter to the editor titled “Good Intentions,” as written by Mr. Fritten, Mr. Riozko, and Mr. Wallace of Advisement, as itNappeared in the July 9 issue of The Spectrum. Clearw their attempts to justify their actions have not only failed, but rather have served only to add fuel to the battle they claim exists between their department and the Office of Student Affairs. Such a situation, they say, is “unfortpnate.” I think the word “ludicrous” says it better. If, as we are led to believe, these ipen are truly concerned with the welfare of incoming students, why do they allow this rivalry to continue? Obviously such a situation benefits no one, least of all the students. In fact, can these students honestly receive the proper and effective guidance they need and deserve if these two units are arguing amongst themselves? The answer is obvious. The main concern of the controversy questions the legitimacy of the “early advisement” sessions, and their effectiveness once completed. According to the | Division of Undergraduate Education, it had beeri proposed early last fall that the Advisement offer these early advisement sessions, a proposal, that was refused. Some individuals in Advisement paid np heed to this and went ahead with their plans, regardless of the possible effects of the program. Is this what is meant by “innovative” programming? Just how effective were these sessions? These gentlemen claim that our objections arose only after finding we had been left out of their brilliant success, and in effect were just plain jealous. Put your fears aside gentlemen, for this was not the case. I, for my part, was very upset to have found out only I found out after the what was occurring - alternatives and decide which one “looked” the best. But not for our objections would it have looked so good in August and September when 25% of those who did register found that their schedules failed to materialize due to some error in filling out their forms? The standard argument is thrown at us that orientation is voluntary anyway, so what’s the hassle? Let’s face reality, how many students really look upon it as being voluntary? The Freshman Orientation period is as much a necessity to new students as is academic advisement. There’s a lot to be discovered; so much to learn in but a few brief hours. Yes, academic, advisement is important, but plainly it is not all of orientation! Most students will see their advisors for no more than a half hour during this time, and that’s it. Even in your “special advisement” period, if the students were to return for normal orientation they would not see their regular advisor again, but rather the whole group would be assigned to one advisor. But freshman orientation means much more. Getting to know a little of the campus; being exposed to what university life is like; meeting new people. These are all important, and are equally as important. Advisement is important, but it’s not the center of the freshman experience. One must face reality, and in doing so will find there’s much more to the world then one’s own niche. I applaud any steps toward “innovative programming” advisement is certainly an area which needs such change. And I would be more than willing to help in setting up a more comprehensive orientation plan, I deplore, however, those programs carried out for the so-called “benefit” of the students, but in fact only benefit their programmers and do nothing of value for students. The early advisement program as carried out may have aided some, but I fear more will have come away having lost more than they could have ever possibly gained. Believe it or not gentlemen 1 care about my “peers,” and I don’t like this University’s habit of “screwing” students for “our own benefit.” I would be glad to discuss this situation with you, and I’m sure there are many others on campus who would be as interesteed as I in hearing what you have to say. So let’s stop cutting each other’s throats, and let’s get back to our jobs; which are to help my “peers,” your students, in - event! Yes, there were those who knew that freshmen were coming to visit for_a day, but never (as noted in Mr. Ferres’ letter of July 16) was it, stated that the students were to be registered, or given the materials to be sent in at a later date. Yes, it is a good idea for freshmen to come to this campus early so that they can get their thoughts together before their regular orientation period. Your department went beyond this, however, and promised instead an easy ticket to early registration, a proposed chance to get first class choice, and ultimately a way to get out of paying $35 for every way possible. orientation. If this is What you mean by “popular,” clearly what student wouldn’t look at the two Andrew Lalonde Director of A cademic Affairs Student Association Ketter on profess Editor s note: The following letter was sent Student Association President Steve Schwartz. to I regret that you are unable to agree with my decision to discontinue the Charter of Social Sciences College. Let me reiterate that the entire Charter Committee was deeply disturbed by the College’s academic quality, or lack of it. Furthermore, a strong minority report recommended discontinuation of the College rather than a reliance once more upon the hope that the College might somehow strengthen programs. its This recommendation was endorsed with near unanimity by the responsible academic officers who were asked to review the Charter Committee’s recommendations. In regard to the second point of your letter, that of student representation on the Academic Cabinet, 1 believe you are aware that I have made a great effort to secure student viewpoints* in a variety of ways and on numerous important issues. Students have been and are represented on such University bodies as the Budget Committee, the Budget Criteria Committee, the Academic Planning Committee, the , U/B Council, major search committees, and the F.S.A. Additionally, I meet periodically and regularly with officers of the student associations. There is, then, ample opportunity under the present system for student opinion to be made known on any issue. I also should emphasize to' you that the Academic Cabinet was organized to provide me with the advice from a University-wide perspective rather than from the point-of-view of specific constituent groups. When I introduced your suggestion to the members this past Monday, they were unanimous in expressing the opinion that the Cabinet should not become a body of constituent representatives. I agree, for that clearly is not its purpose. When constituent-based advice is appropriate, individuals may be invited to appear at Cabinet meetings, as students have been in the past. As usual, I am happy to hear from you on such issues as these, and I look forward to our meetings this year. Very truly yours, Robert Ketter President �by Randi Schnur Arts Editor Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo doesn't seem all that different from most not if you sit two ballet companies balconies away from its dancers and leave your glasses home, anyway. They're awkward, sometimes a little their classically symmetrical positions aren't always, and some of the toe shoes we see executing those jetes that cross half of the stage at once resemble the traditional footwear of the ballerina rather less than they do the proverbial seven-league boots. But move a few dozen rows closer, to the more intimate, off-off Broadwayish distance the company knows and prefers. — [sj Eli i *Jo\ jj and incongruities spin toward you with the Olga of Trock dancer speed Tchikaboumskaya's pirouettes. Hair curls, over the tops of the ballerinas' satin bodices; long sideburns extend past their tightly-tied chignons', and not even the hardest-working woman could conceivably end up with leg muscles like these. Pointed parody The ten dancers who make up the Trock, as they call their company, are not hermaphrodites, but they do represent a breed nearly as rare. Since the great Vaslav Les Ballets Trockadera de Monte Carlo offers unusual technique to the world of dance Nijinsky was laughed off a Paris stage some fifty years ago for dancing en pointe (on the "points" of the toes, in positions and shoes traditionally restricted to women) no or had, other man has tried it in public — least, until Les Ballets Trockadero hit the New York dance scene two years ago. Today, classes which feature the Trock's style, merely unconventional to their new students but absolutely unthinkable even five years ago, are undergoing a sort of spontaneous generation process all over, and it may not be long before the Trock can stop paying custom prices for all those king-sized toe shoes. Dancing experience among members of Les Ballets Trockadero ranges from about ten years in classical ballet to a year begun with this company. All the dancers, though, regardless of practical background, had in common a frustration with the man's role in ballet, which is often limited if he'ts to supporting female stars, and really good performing a few solo leaps after he's put them down. at — — Juicy roles Thus, the Trock's repertoire (obviously in extreme reaction to their collective discontent) Is drawn primarily from among the biggest, most dramatically effective, juiciest female showcases there are: Swan Lake, The Dying Swan first danced by Pavlova, the abstract but emotion-packed so forth. The Les Sylphides, company's very funny and surprisingly well-performed interpretations of these classics (particularly astonishing when one considers the number of years of study required of a ballerina before she's allowed to work anywhere near her "points”) alternated with more original but seldom parodies throughout each less effective of the two programs presented during Les Ballets Trockadero's five-day stint at Artpark last week. The combined effects of the company's obvious love of ballet and l|(ecn sense of the occasional pomposity that' seems to go along with its traditions produce a program — — that is as much fun for confirmed ballet haters as it is for the professionals who often show up in the Trock's audiences.' (Natalia Makarova has been photographed with the troupe, and Mikhail Baryshnikov is rumored to have nearly laughed himself out of his seat at a recent performance.) Against the flow Among the most interesting works unveiled for the Artpark audience were Go Jor Barocco (a three-part ensemble piece memorable for its chaotic daisy chains of dancers who knot themselves up in hopeless tangles while trying to pass smoothly through the arches of each others' arms, as Bach's music flows serenely, utterly imperturbably, around them.) and The Dance of Liberation of the American People the full title is about four times this long, and makes only about half as much sense in whTch Olga Plushinskaya dances Isadora Duncan dancing Betsy Ross, replete with Greek tunic and fluttering flag, to the roaring of Tchaikovsky's melodrama 1812 Overture. (Incidentally, each of the dancers has conjured up a full-fledged alter ego for performance purposes, with her biography printed in every program. "There's a lot of theatre involved," insist the Trock members; working within the company's structure is "like playing someone through someone else," as reacting in character to both choreographed movements and the occasional onstage faUx pas is an important part of the act.) With an international tour about to begin and eight performance "seasons" undertaken in only two years, Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo is becoming more and more visible in the most hitherto unlikely places. In fact, says dadcer/artistic director Peter Anastos, "We'jV almost not group underground performance an anymore." The troup's sudden popularity is as well-deserved as it is surprising; we can only hope that Artpark will give us another chance to fill the seats that were left empty last week. — — �Street theatre forBuffalo by Kenneth Norman Spectrum Arts Staff That'll Be the Day, on its first release in 1974, attracted most of the attention that went to it because of Ringo Starr's role. Besides its attraction for the fan of punk (David Essex has the lead role, and Keith Moon is also in the cast), Michael Wertham's film is the first half of a two-film portrayal of a working-class British boy who dreams of becoming a rock star. (The second film. Stardust, will be showing on campus next weekend.) That'll Be The Day is showing in the Norton Conference Theatre on Saturday at 8 p.m. and 10 p.m., and Sunday at 7 p.m. and 9 p.m., sponsored by the UUAB Film Committee. The streets of Buffalo won't be the same this summer. If they are the same, they'll be the same as the streets of New York City because they'll have street theatre. A tradition in some large cities, street theatre has been a rarity in Buffalo. SUNYAB's Department of Theatre hopes to make it a regular attraction for Buffalonians as well. Programmed by department Chairman Saul Elkin, as part of the Summer Theatre schedule, it will serve not only as a cultural entertainment treat for the community, but also as an apprenticeship for undergraduates and graduates in the department. Entitled The Buffalo Play, under the direction of Ed Smith, the production features not only faculty and graduates, but undergraduates and high school students as well. The program stems from the students themselves, all of various backgrounds, who express their individual viewpoints on Buffalo and other large cities, and the issues surrounding them. Jeff Brooks, studying here on a writing fellowship, wrote most of the script, admitting that he "basically just listened to discussions and put it in a coherent dramatic form."

"willing to work." The play is of a physical nature that puts heavy themes in a satirical light. Smith used the words "fun" and "funny" in his description of The Buffalo Play. The cast reflects a fantastically wide range of social and ethnic viewpoints. It is composed of undergraduates Irene Burns Normandale, Evan Parry, Monique Mojica, June Duell, June Guralnick, Chris A. Milhouse, Lorelle Chizen, Terry Williams, Millie Prezioso, Cindy Williams, and Mark Donahue. High school students from a theatre apprenticeship program co-ordinated by their schools and the Theatre Department have roles in both the Summer Shakespeare program and the street theatre program. Several high school students from the New York State Division for Youth, currently involved in a theatre in-class training program, were also selected to act in The Buffalo Play. A flat-bed truck with two side platforms will be used as a stage, making this a theatre-in-the-round experience. Before taking their show to various sites in the community, the students will be performing on campus July 26, 27 and 28 at 7 p.m. Downtown performances are also planned, including an August 6 date outside of Shea's Buffalo Theatre. The performances will run afternoons and evenings from July 26 to August 15. - Real life "The scenes," Smith explained, "deal with unemployment, welfare, 'the Avenue' (Chippewa Street), and heavy themes to show why people are in these situations and why they are they way that they are."

Still, this is less bothersome than it might be in a different kind of play, since Eve is not really about a relationship but rather about a single figure. All the other characters relatively are unimportant. And the structure of the play does demand that Eva be left alone at the end. The set by John Ferguson represents Eva's basement apartment. This is a small revolving stage at the back, where the figures from her memory appear, and two garbage cans on either side, representing the alleys where she scrounges for throw-aways. This stage effectively conveys a sense of her isolation and confinement (she describes both her former home and her present one as prisons). Because no other place for her to live is visualized, and because this place seems to exist in a void, we get a powerful impression of how trapped she is. She has nowhere to turn. The play runs through August 28 at the Avon Theatre in downtown Stratford. Prodigal Sun �Our Weekly Reader The 400 Eels of Sigmund Freud, A.G. Mojtabai (Sirtion & Schuster, $7.95) When a'n ex-salesman named Valparosi visits Richard Henken, the librarian, carrying a jar full of ashes and tells him that is all that is left of a novel he has written, Henken has very little patience for the man. The book, Valparosi says, was his only reason for living. (His wife had already left him.) After eight rejection slips he burned it. He tells Henken that he would like the library to have the remains of his novel. This, of course, isn't the main reason for his trip to the library. He is a man alone in the world looking for another person with whom to share a cup of coffee. He is grasping for a measure of compassion. However, a measure is more than Henken can afford. He, after all, is a busy man. Henken realizes his own callousness, and knows he can spare a moment but doesn't. This is the only affecting scene in A.G. Mojtabai's first novel, Mundome, and Valparosi is the only character who moved me. Mundome is a simple tale simply told about a man, Henken, and his mentally disturbed sister, Meg. (Valparosi is just an auxiliary character.) The relationship, or non-relationship, between the two defined, principles is well although little warmth is felt by the reader" who , reamins, throughout, a disinterested third party< The language, however, is often haunting and sometimes beautiful. The pure idelicacy of the prose was something unique to me. That, combined with the brutal reality the novel depicts, made for a startling contrast. Mojtabai's second novel. The 400 Eels of Sigmund Freud, deals with a group of high school students engaged in scientific research in an isolated mansion called the Four Winds. The students have been chosen for this summer project for their academic excellence and are America's future scientific leaders. Obviously these "leaders" are going to have problems in coping with life's normal situations and Ms. Mojtabai this very well. Naomi'S initiation into what she considers to be sex represents the graceful awkwardness of such a beginning more honestly than a similar scene in The Summer of '42 . The innocence and ignorance of the students is played off against the frustrations and world-weariness of their teachers and adult supervisors. When Aunt Ethel, the wife of the scientist who is running the project, insists that the students clean up the house thoroughly at the sacrifice of time spent in the lab, she doesn't off as a silly middle-aged, woman but as a person trying desperately to maintain a sense of self. She later says of her famous husband: "A big man, I made him big." She is proud of him but resents him at the same time because her own life has been stifled. Mojtabai's novels deal with people in trouble. Along with Valparosi, Henken, and Aunt Isaiah, the Ethel there is introverted student who is publicly reprimanded by Aunt Ethel for practicing his violin instead of doing his share of the household chores. Fate has not thrown obstacles in these people's paths, they have done it to each other. They are not cosmic victims but victims of their own imperfections. The language in this novel, as in the first, is its strongest point. It has improved in the sense that it is more varied. The texture of the prose (if prose can have texture) rangesVfrom a sinewy tautness to a sort ot tree-flowing, lilting verse. The sentences fall frequency. First there are limits on where and when he can play; finally, he is hot allowed to play inside the Four Winds at all. He is forced of the being out slowly mainstream, he is into one another and then one comes which jars the reader with its abruptness.

Doctorow's recent i-h is to r i ca I novel about turn-of-the-century America, the author qu a s only infrequently nostalgic. By contrast Laura Benet's memoir of her was childhood in this same era with two famous brothers is altogether wistful. Where Doctorow's book is incisive and demanding. When William Rose, Stephen Vincent and / Were Young is only charming a kind of antiRagtime. (The title itself is an allusion to A.A. Milne's When We Were Very Young, which is thoroughly appropriate.) — For example, she describes a childhood summer in Gloucester: "So we sailed and had Ping-Pong games, all being the same age and delightfully inconsequent. How I hated to leave!" Laura Benet's book has a special, whimsical air because it is a childhood memoir that of three childhoods to be seen through the eyes of Laura, the oldest. It stops abruptly when Stephen, the youngest, turns twelve and commences his formal education. exact — — is something adults only through and understand When momentary reveries and acknowledges this fact: the stories, games objects, places, and people are all remembered as if in a pleasantly long .dream all "delightfully inconsequent." Childhood possess stable feature of everyday life exist now only in the imagination, the last real parents apparently having lived at the turn of the century. After that the breed seems to have died out with the War or at least seems to have been maimed and distorted in the burgeoning media; the funny papers, movies, books. But here Laura gives us back our mythical American parents (i.e., remembered parents) for a moment; there is no ambiguous wife or confused husband as in Ragtime, but only real and substantial adults who are so good and kind and intelligent we suspect they never existed, though we continue to wish they had. "We were never whipped," Laura relates, "not even when Willie went out driving with some of the boys [in a donkey cart] and ran over a farmer's turkey." If the Benet parents are. attractively unreal, some aspects of Laura's childhood in America’s Gilded Age are more real than real and point up the sometimes tragic differences between growing up then and now. We forget how tenuous a gift early life was and we forget how high mortality even those, like rates were for children the Benet's, who were ensconsed in the cozy upper-middle class. Willie and Laura both had dangerous cases of measles, whooping cough and scarlet fever; and Willie and Stephen, different times, nearly died of typhoid fever. (As an infant Stephen was saved only when his mother threw open a window at a critical moment and held him out in the winter air.) — — One recurrent element in this shared dream is Laura's memory of her parents, especially her father. He was a West Point graduate and career Army officer who had a gift for spontaneous doggerel verse, absurd stories, and other amusements: Another one he told us was about a green house we saw on one of our walks. “In that house," he said, “lives a cross-eyed daughter with an aged father. They subsist entirely on stale bread and peanuts. And they keep a parrot that sings out all day, 'You're another'." Parents as an attractive, respected and Prodigal Sun A natural, early familiarity with disease and sudden death manifested itself in curious ways, including a degree of fatalism not found in children today. Laura, for instance, remembers her first adolescent crush with a strange mixture of tenderness, romance, whimsy and dead calm: boy for me. But alas, Charlie died during the following winter and my romance was ended. " Similarly, Stephen was blase even as a very young child in a way which is now the perhaps lost to childhood experience sinde the first readers of Beatrix Potter have all grown up. — Mother, entering the nursery one morning, discovered an empty mousetrap and a dead mouse on the floor next to Stephen, who was holding a picture book. “What are you doing, dear child, with that AND IWEQE YOUNG dead mouse?" she asked. "Oh, it isn't dead at all. It's a dear little mouse," replied her offspring. "/ took it out of the trap this morning and read it a story." One of the most fascinating revelations about middle class childhood then, to this reviewer, was one which Laura Benet certainly did not calculate, but one which occurred quite naturally: a strange, literate formality of address between children. Willie whispers to Laura at one point about their pet bantam chickens: "Lollie, Cleopatra has disturbed Annie off her nest and she is swelling with rage." And while the Benet's are living in Buffalo for a time in 1895, Willie gets into trouble for writing a "legend" in the snow on the doorstep of a snooty neighbor. The offending graffito: "Funny doings." Such innocence the world and the English language will never know again. There is another feature of Laura's little mentioning; memoir worth the photographs family snapshots and portraits. More than the words Benet remembers and uses to remember, these pictures are distinct to that age and no streaked, other. Some of them are bad faded, folded, poorly composed but, if bad, they are always bad in a charming — — — “Thu bby / hoped would be my husband was Charlie Chase. met him but once, one day when / was passing a pleasant house facing the water.

Squinting, distant figures sit in unreal gardens on unreal furniture; pale children's faces stare out from under old hats, one face clear, the other blurred and featureless. There is a picture, too, which appears late in the book. It is small, almost incidental. "Father, Aurtt Margaret, and Mother (left) view the Pacific at Coronado Beach during a trip to San Diego," reads the cutline. They are standing with a crowd of derbied men and full-skirted women. The men are gazing at the sea spread-legged and imperious; the women look to the side, seemingly legless, solid as inverted cones. It is as if that age and those people E.L. Doctorow described in Ragtime suddenly existed, as if they were real and without irony: Women were stouter then. They visited the fleet carrying white parasols. Everyone wore white in summer. Tennis racquets were hefty and the racquet faces elliptical. There was a lot of sexual fainting. There were no Negroes. There were no immigrants. The glimpse this book gives us of the Benet's is as enchanting as it is private and incidental; but the real worth of When William Rose, Stephen Vincent and / Were of Young is what we see turn-of-the-century American society itself its public life as it is accidentally evoked.

The Spectrum . Friday, 23 July 1976 book, you used to read in you, pediatrician’, office when you were a kl What halts Derringer's substantive direction is his worship of a genre of rock I shall call "suicide music." It possesses a tempo with a temperament that, when joined with grief-stricken tact, emerges tasting of depression; in this way suicide music yields a satisfying empathetic experience on the listner's part Derringer fails dreadfully in this mode of music by obeying its heavy touch for almost every emotion cited on his record's lyrics. In asking for love in “Let Me In," giving love in "Yqu Can Have Me and feeling jealousy in "Envy," Derringer grovels in a musical exposition of suicide depression when there is little reason for such abject feeling. Hell, he may be a masochist for all I know. Again, tastes of well-fashioned contrivances of depression are some things to meditate upon, to think about, and to feel. The music of blues artists has legitimate finality to it and that finality is appropriately successful in the realm of lessons learned; intensity that expressly opposes the idea of blues is Derringer's idea of suicide music. Beginning with side two. Derringer becomes aware of where downtrodden feeling lies and moves to cut away ugly, overweight depression with a calmness that delicately mates to an even equilibrium of empathy. Depression bears and gives the key value of focused understanding. The listener is not bemused as familiar suppositions of despondency are presented well in "Comes a Woman"; Tve survived disasters Lived through all kinds of hell Kept my head when braver men Didn't do half as well. But / am losing faith in me And I am losing heart Cause comes a woman in my life I always fall apart. "Beyond the Universe" is unique in that Derringer's guitar solos are traded with the solos of Danny Johnson to produce what amounts to "dueling guitars." Johnson wins though, as Derringer's gun fingers seem a bit arthritic. There are many more guitar and drum solos and hard rock and depression that will possibly be better received when Derringer appears here live in concert tonight. I hope they are, but don't get, ah, depressed if they aren't.

In the June 25th issue of The Spectrum an article appeared which was largely the result of an interview with me concerning Ketter’s decision to terminate Social Sciences College. In the otherwise generally accurate account, there was one gross error which must be set straight. 1 am paraphrased as charging that “the Committee’s members were selected specifically for their bias against the College.” This is a remark that 1 never made, nor would make, since it is not completely true. The fact of the matter is, and this is undoubtedly the source of the mistake, that one member of the Committee was chosen despite his open and well-known antagonism to the College. At the time of his selection we fought against his inclusion, citing provisos in the governing “Reichert Prospectus” which suggest that, enemies of the Colleges not be placed on the Chartering Committees. Our efforts were obviously in yam since it served the desire of Faculty Senate Chairman George Hochfield to have at our evaluation. him No other members of the Committee were specifically objected to by Social Sciences College, and no others were so apparently biased. Yet we did have other objections to the way selection of the whole committee was carried out. In some sense the evaluation was weighted against" us by this procedure. First of all, there was significant underrepresentation of Black people and other minorities on the Committee. In f?ct, only one voting member of the Committee was black, and that person was a representative from the Colleges. Second, there was no faculty member on the Committee (with the possible exception of Chairperson Norman Solkoff) whe had sympathy for, or a general understanding of, Radical Political Economy, Marxism, or the type of social criticism and historical evaluation that forms a major part of the College’s curriculum. Third, the “Reichert Prospectus” calls for a mutual agreement between the Faculty Senate and the Colleges Council on the selection of Committee members. Yet the actual situation was one in which the Senate Executive •Committee gave the Council several name.s the Council objected that they were unsatisfactory and the Senate Executive responded that they were to be approved or else they would be forced on us: in other works, the composition of the Committee was forced on the Council The spsult was an increased possibility that there would in fact be a minority report, of the type that was finally issued, which Ketter could then exploit to his advantage. Yet the mere fact that Ketter, and seemed Spitzberg, so eager to. accept any as recommendation to abolish the College evidenced by their support for the “Minority Report” (written by Barbara Howell, and signed by Yoram Szekely and Daisie Radner) despite the fact that it is poorly written, intellectually shoddy,' unprofessional,' unscientific and unobjective reveals that the Committee was important only for the sake Of .appearances. It could be said that a stronger Committee may have made it more difficult for the Administration to eliminate the College. But, in the end, Ketter obviously didn’t even care about — — appearances. It is certainly becoming clearer that the decision to eliminate Social Sciences College had been made in the minds of Ketter, et. al, well before the constitution of the Committee. We were being set up for the operation at least a year ago. First, Spitzberg issued a series of memos to Dr. Stein complaining that he was unwilling to attend a lot of meetings, including extra “Old Boy” meetings. Second came Spitzberg’s sudden “interest” in out instructors’ qualifications at (the end of the Fall 1975 semester. From my understanding of the events that occurred during the review, coupled with a of Spitzberg’s memo to Ketter knowledge concerning our evaluation, it is clear to me that Spitzberg’s personal machinations were behind much of the final content of both the majority and minority reports. From his memo it can be seen that it is his opinions and statements that are being accepted by Ketter: positions which, one might wish to speculate, could have been worked out between them a while ago. At least, objectively speaking, the actions and statements of Ketter and Spitzberg are in accord with each other, whether it was an “accident” or not. Thus Spitzberg has placed himself in a league with the perpetual opponents of the Colleges system. This fact is either in obvious contradiction to his job, or is the very essence of it. Howard L.

Greg Tylinski - To the Editor After more than a decade of disarmament pacts that have allowed both the U.S. and Soviet nuclear arsenals to continue to grow, the two superpowers sat down last month and signed one of the most meaningless treaties in history. This latest treaty has betrayed their intention to “manage” the arms race, not to end it! On paper, the treaty limits peaceful tests to 150 kilotons, virtually no limit at all. Neither superpower has conducted or conetmplated a test of such incredible magnitude within memory. Furthermore, while no single blast is to exceed 150 kilotons, the treaty allows testing of a series of blasts totaling Also included are detailed 1,500 kilofons. specifications for on-site inspection, but the provisions are so restrictive there is little chance they will ever be used. These treaties create the illusion that our “enlightened” imperialists intend to make the world safe. However, the Socialist Labor Party points out, inherent in the rivalry between modern war economic systems that need markets* sources of raw materials, and spheres of influence to survive.. The U:S. and Soviet • Union’s (which is not socialist) systems are based on production for sale with a view to profit. Until they change to a system of production for human needs in which their respective working people receive the full* value of their product, we will continue to see economic war, the real basis of military war. �‘Measure for Measure’ Shakespeare in Stratford performances are superb The Luck) of Richard Monette is also as vital as it was in the original production.

The action comes about one week after the State Legislature failed to restore State teaching undergraduate Graduate stipends are a major in the University of request for Buffalo budget stipend “The situation 1,976-77. is serious for all SUNY University Centers” and the “stipend must be raised to competitive market levels,” the budget request states. objective (SUS) University Scholarship funds in the supplemental budget, thus decreasing the amount of financial aid available to graduate students. The two measures, which ate already enforced by the three other SUNY Centers, are aimed at closing the gap in available graduate student financial aid by requiring emancipated graduate their students to announce residency and by asking research students to reduce their summer enrollment where it would not hurt them. Graduate students often complete their degrees with more than the required number of credits. They are now being asked by their departments to reduce their summer enrollment to free some of the tuition waivers they now claim. 1800 There are currently graduate Students here eligible for full or partial support. In the past, this support has been provided through SUS funds, the Tuition Assistance Plan (TAP) and tuition waivers. The State Legislature s failure to restore the SUS funds for all but law and pharmacy students effectively wiped out one source of graduate students financial aid, according to in programs. *-Santos Mac A Ulster Hull Graduate School Dean MacAllisfer Hull. Hull said that the elimination prompted of SUS funds of problems in expectations providing full support to graduate students. He stressed in an interview Monday that the State University did not intend to abandon graduate students, and that it was with working together the individual SUNY Centers to ensure adequate financial aid was provided to graduate students. , Financial aid and stipends for graduate students are increasingly a cause for concern at the four Waivers not enough The State Legislature reduced tuition waiver funds from $15 million to $10 million in 1973. Since then about $1 million has been restored, putting the current level at about $11 million. Hull said the cut in tuition waiver funds three years ago .was made because of charges that the program was granting waivers to ineligible students. But he added that these charges were never substantiated and that the University would have been glad to reveal its records of the program to public scrutiny. that the tuition itself has never had the capability, as a singe source, to fully cover the financial Hull said waiver program aid needs of graduate students. Stipends and tuition waivers students must be approved by the State Legislature for graduate in the same way the University’s operating budget is approved by the State University Board of Trustees. Veteran benefits are finally reapproved for the next year by Fredda Cohen Managing Editor three-quarter payment; 6-8 hours will yield half a payment; and under 6 hours will provide for tuition and fees. After a year of negotiations with the Office of Veterans Affairs at this University, the Veterans Administration in Washington, D.C. finally approved Wednesday this University’s application for veterans educational benefits for 1976-77. Earlier this year, VA began enforcing a 1966 regulation requiring colleges and universities to maintain records of the numbers of veterans attending the institution and to report within 30 days any changes in credit hours or addresses. However, the 3 to 4 week drop and add period here, and an additional wait of at least a week for class lists, made release of the information by the Office of Admissions and Records in the required time impossible. However, a compromise was worked out by Coordinator of Veterans Affairs Clarence Dye and the State approving agency, which is part of the State Education Department. Signed form As of September 1, veterans will be required to hand in a monthly signed form that declares the veteran is a registered student at this University and lists any changes in credits or addresses. This form, which the veteran will receive when he initially registers, must be submitted to the Office of Veterans Affairs on the tenth of every month, following a VA payment. For example, once a veteran receives his September payment, he must either mail in or bring in personally his signed form by October 10. Otherwise, he will not receive his payment for the following month. Accordingly, if a veteran enrolls for 12 contact hours a semester, he will receive the full $270-a-month payment; 9-11 hours will yield a While this compromise does not exactly fit into the plan designated by the VA in Washington, it is another type of 30 day plan which is acceptable to both the State approving agency and the VA. “We resolved our problem today,” Dye said in an interview Wednesday, commenting, “Like all things, it was a thing of aggravation for a year, and then there was a quick solution.” Renewed enforcement Because of the time problem caused by this University’s registration policy, the State approving agency had originally rejected this University’s application. The renewed enforcement of eligibility rules grows partly out of ongoing controversy concerning several million dollars in overpayments to ineligible veterans, and substantial cutbacks in VA’s budget. However, in spite of the fact that the veteran’s problems seem to be over, the VA is trying to enforce several new policies. The VA has modified its regulations to gain a greater say in what it considers “satisfactory progress” by a veteran towards a degree. Dye says the University will fight this policy, reasoning that “we [the University] should be the ones who are checking them.” Dye said that many schools were fighting this policy, including the entire State University of Colorado, and does not see this as a major problem. A more significant problem is that of veterans who have been signing up for courses, and then receiving X grades (unofficial resignations), instead of normal letter grades. Dye said that any student who received an X grade will have to return the money to the VA, admitting that he does foresee problems for individual students. Reactor shut-down is caused by water leak ■ * by Paul Dlugosz Spectrum Staff Writer The nuclear reactor on the Main Campus, repaired in January, has been shut down again following a detection.of another leak in its water system Although 2500 gallons escaped before the leak was repaired, spokesmen maintained there was no danger to the community or the environment from radioactivity in the water or loss of coolant in the reactor Martin Haas, Assistant Director of the Nuclear Science and Technology Facility, reported that the radioactivity of the water was only 12 percent of. the maximum radioactivity the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) allows to be pumped into municipal sewer systems. Dr. MacAllister Hull, Dean of the Graduate School, has been chief academic officer over the facility since July 1. He estimated that “almost all” of the 2500 gallons would have gone into the Buffalo sewage system, with the remainder sinking directly through the concrete floor beneath the facility. He maintained there was no chance of radioactivity adversely affecting the University’s water supply or ground water beneath the campus. Reactor to operate this week This facility has a “light water” reactor, which means it uses ordinary water, as opposed to “heavy water” a mixture of deuterium and oxygen used in “heavy water” reactors. The water serves as a coolant and also as a medium for slowing down nuetrons emitted by uranium atoms, which make up the “fuel” of the reactor. The water increases the possibility of uranium particles hitting each other and producing fission. Technicians at the facility were alerted to the leak when the volume of water declined. The accident was reported immediately, by phone and mail, to NRC and, according to the administration, an inspector from that agency gave formal approval to the University’s repair plans on July 8. It was expected the reactor would be started again this week, pending approval of the University’s Nuclear Safety Committee. The leak is in the same section of pipe as an earlier break-through in which 250 to 730 gallons per day were being lost from last September until January. The administration did not publicize the earlier leak until April, when a local television station broke the story. — Controversy over refueling cost The earlier leak, which resulted from “galvanized corrosion,” was located by means of a television camera and patched with an inflatable apparatus known as a “leak plugger” and a powerful resin applied by pressurized air. This time the repair job involved a similar procedure, except that the workers removed a ten foot section of pipe to get closer to the hole. i The pipe, wrapped in six feet of concrete and located under the reactor, is part of an elaborate system of pipes and a holding tank through which the facility’s water is continuously recirculated. The cost of this repair job was $4400. On July 11a small truck was seen parked next to the delivery entrance with hoses leading into the facility. On the side of the truck was written: “Cherne Inspection/Grout System Tough on Sewer Leaks.” The budget for the nuclear facility in 1975-76 included $149,000 in University funds and $135,000 in expenses which were reimbursed or offset by income from its services. There was a controversy earlier in the year over the projected cost of refueling the uranium core, scheduled for 1977. Figures between $680,000 and $900,000 were estimated by several sources. Hull insisted that previously quoted figures had only been rejected bids from different companies, and that a “firm commitment” had been made with a company to handle the refueling for $330,000. — —continued on page 2— �Peoples Power Coalition er Municipally owned could lessen utility costs by Eric Nussbaum Spectrum Staff Writer The Western New York branch of The People’s Power Coalition, a state-wide organization, is attempting to municipalize all gas and electric utilities ih the Western New York area. composed of Coalition, The representatives from various labor, consumer, and environmental groups, is questioning the priorities of power companies, such as Niagara Mohawk and National Fuel Gas. A fact sheet circulated in the Buffalo area claims that “the only purpose of the in- estor-owned utility is to make maximum guaranteed, profits for its investors. The sole purpose of a municipally owned’ system is to provide a public service for us.” The Coalition’s primary concern is to get the Buffalo Common Council to realize and the benefits of municipally owned gas currently being electric companies.

Massena, New York, is now in the process of going through Condemnation Court. Forty-five municipalities in New York State now distribute their own electrical power.

For instance, customers of Niagara 250 for $11.60 Mohawk pay Akron, of customers while kilowatt-hours and New York Municipal pay $4.71 Municipal York of New Bath, customers pay $5.71.

Page three . �TRB Two way communication To the Editor. It amazes me that Mr. Frittoh, Mr. Risho, and Mr. Wallace can think that we are foolish enough to believe what they said in their recent letter concerning the matter of early registration. Firstly, we were told the decision to have an early advisement program was made by Mr. Grantham, not the Committee. This was well after it occurred. The Orientation staff was promised in numerous phone calls that no students would be registered. Foolishly they believed you. 700 students were Interestingly enough, registered, 25 percent of which had errors in their data forms. I wonder why? Secondly, advisement is only a small portion of orientation, program. Apparently there must be a the snobbish attitude on your behalf that advisement is the only matter of importance to freshmen. 1 am not fully sure if you\ realise it or not but this is a University, and there are a lot of areas other than Academic Advisement that are important to know about. This early registration program did nothing in the way of orienting people to the University. Are you trying to furfhelsdienate commuters? As far as the great significance of early or not, but I advisement. I’m not sure would tend to think that studelrte-felt they had an advantage of getting their courses sooner, and believe it or not this coulcThave been a strong motive for Last time the Democrats met in New York (1924) they took 103 ballots; this time they don’t need any. As the convention opens it looks like a crashing bore, like the one that renominated FDR in 1936 where they brought entertainer Eddie Dowling on to the platform to sing songs or Atlantic City in 1964 where incumbent Lyndon Johnson did tricks with the vice presidential mystery, even trotting out poor old Senator Tom Dodd of Connecticut before giving the imperial nod to Hubert. You can’t blame Jimmy Carter for using the vice presidential gimmick again; after all, what other suspense is there? The Founding Fathers invented the one-heartbeat-away office, the job of spare wheel whose importance is mortuarial. Just to keep you informed, one vice president was named Daniel D. Tompkins (with James Monroe) and somewhere along the line was Alexander Throttlebottom. Who will be the ? It’s nothing Daniel D. Tompkins for Jimmy to be stand-in for a to laugh about, of course king; the Warren Commission noted that “attempts have been made on the lives of one of every five presidents; one in everymine Presidents has been killed.” The other day a woman snapped a gun at Jerry Ford. Of the last eight Truman, presidents four have moved up Johnson, Nixon, Ford. So now the usual chatter is going on of elevating the vice presidency; of again promising to give him something to do besides wait. Pay no attention to it. It is always promised and never happens (look at Rocky). The jobs are incompatible. Kings and Crown Princes never get along. Presidential conventions can be great shows and you can generally count on the rowdy democrats to find something to fight about with each other if not the Republicans. On occasion the drama is tremendous: a state banner finally wigwags for recognition, and you know the great contest is over; or when the southern delegates walk out of the Democrats’ Philadelphia convention in 1948 over the civil rights plank; or when Sen. Everett M. Dirksen passionately attacks Gov. Dewey at the Chicago Ampitheater in 1952, shouting, “You led us down to defeat!” Old pros remember these - - — early registration. the Academic Advisement program Thirdly, here is far from efficient. You might be interested to know that in the past, many people thought the program was terrible once they got up here and realized that they could have done fine themselves. Some of them also found that the Advisors “screwed” their schedules up pretty badly. Let’s face it gentlemen, the advisement program here is far from infallible. If you dqn’t agree ask some of the people whose schedules were “screwed” up. Granted there are some excellent advisors, but the leadership can’t seem to enable everyone to get their acts — together. As far as the “flagrant lack of consideration for you informed Student Association as to what you were doing? NO-ONE. What the hell do you call it, consideration! We were also never informed about transfer orientation.

More specifically, it takes a scathingly cynical look at one of the legends on which this country has been Jbuilt, and the somewhat shaky nature of its foundations. Wisely, director Robert Altman underplays the ramifications of the "Indian problem," the hostile arrowsfrom which shot William Cody to fame and fortune in the first place (a central theme of Arthur Kopit's play Indians, upon which the film was Martin Scorcese's initial jaunt down his cinematic "Mean Streets," ostensibly based but which neither Altman nor Who's That Knocking At My Door, is this weekend's UUAB Film co-writer Alan Rudolph had read so much as a line Committee feature in the Norton Conference Theatre, showing of before completing their shooting script), although Saturday and Sunday. they cannot, of course, be altogether ignored.

No matter whom Altman chooses to make, lately, he always seems to be a primary butt of his own joke, and that can be a dangerous strategy to follow; the more bitter and cynical the satire becomes, the harder it is to hold onto a viewpoint higher than mere parody, or to maintain any sense of perspective at all. Layered legends Altman is, of course, much too good at what he does to ever actually lose that perspective altogether; but this study of the making and unmaking of legends works oa so many levels at one time taking one and yfometimes ripping apart the Wild West itself, Buffalo Bill's over-inflated position within it, the very similar position of Paul Newman-as-superstar-as Buffalo Bill-as-superstar, the director's own role in the process of recreating the recreators of something that never really existed in that we often find ourselves trapped the first place somewhere between the layers, and nothing seems to be happening at all. Altman's vision of the Wild West Show (as metaphor for just about everything in our lives?) in all its vividly imagined detail does have tremendous on depth.

Prodigal Sun �Our Weekly Reader Homosexuality: Lesbians and Gay Men in Society, History, and Literature, Arno Press (54 vol. series) against taboo The homosexuality is being broken very slowly. State by state, the laws are slowly changing. In spite of this fact, the highest court in the land still sees fit to continue a long standing and illogical bigotry perpetrated by the demands of an outmoded mythic condition and the more subtle requirements of a rapidly disintegrating economic system. But there is aid and comfort for the long embattled minority appearing on every front. The freedom of the press guarantees that, no matter how much the pseudo-sancitified institutions against their own fight perceptions of this lifestyle, material of a positive nature can be printed and disseminated to the public, and ip particular, to gays. One of the most recent attempts to provide this positive reinforcement has been taken by Arno Press with the release of their new series. Homosexuality: Lesbians and Gay Men in Society, History and Literature. This series is for the most part made up of reprints of long or hard-to-obtain out-of-print materials. Several new works are included to round out the collection. For those of a scholarly bent one of the most useful books in the collection could be the Gay News Chronology, a series of abstracted articles from the New York Times. The period covered is from the Stonewall Riots of 1969—75. For research purposes this will be an invaluable aid and it is to be sincerely hoped that a companion book, updating the news, will be forthcoming in 1980. One of the most useful and difficult to obtain books that gays involved in the movement can use is The Gay Crusaders by Kay Tobin and Randy Wicker. this book is Although comparatively recent (1972), it has literally become a collectors item. It is a rare collection of interviews with leading members of the gay movement. The gay rights movement is undeniably political in nature. There can be no reform of the outmoded criminal code without a political basis and a large, vocal and highly visible support group. Size meaning numbers of votes always impresses those in seats ,of governmental power. To overlook the political implications of the movement is to bury one's head in the sand. The people interviewed in The Gay Crusaders are all political, both inside and outside of the movement. Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon for instance, are two women who have contributed much to the general gay movement. They were the guiding spirit and co-founders of the Daughters of Bilitis, one of the oldest lesbian organizations in Their the co u n try. disenchantment with the male dominated gay rights movement fueled by their determination to increase the importance of the lesbian and, by association, the women's movement. As the founders of The Ladder they greatly increased the scope of the lesbian cause by sending this newspaper around the country and thereby creating a focal point for the fledgling movement. A certain poingancy is felt in reading the interview with Jack Nichols and his lover, the late Lige Clarke. These two men furnished the movement with enthusiasm and excitemem. Together they wrote two "rooks that have become classics. Yet it is, strange that after the death of Lige Clarke", Jack Nichols published a book that in no way mentions the gay struggle in this country or his part in it. Other prominent people interviewed are Barbara Gittings, founder of the Task Force on Gay Liberation for> the American Association; Library Frank Kameny, one of the most effective leaders of the movement and the only voice in Washington for many years; Troy Perry, founder of the first gay church in this country, and many others. of the famous lesbians of the twenties and thirties. Along with her realistic interpretation of a series that could easily people be ranked with many famous male artists' works she has created a series of drawings that can only be described as thematic. Their quality and execution is equal to the work of Picasso. Altogether this fascinating set of artistic creations would be a worthwhile addition to any art collection and a prime focus for the gay movement or the women's — — movement. ***** — — To say that The Young and Evis is strictly a gay novel would be wrong. It is the story of a gay male in a particular setting, at a particular time in New York City. Charles Ford and Parker Tyler created this novel in the early artistic thirties. As an interpretation of what the authors saw in that period it is of great interest and serves as an interesting comparison with the more recent works. Although the style is different, the book becomes quite readable once you are used to its form. There exists in the mind of the general public the unfortunate stereotype of the gay artistic male, a stereotype true only in the same ratio of artistic males to the general male population. Those people, and gays, tend to overlook the fact that women can be artistic just as easily as men. Art knows no sexual boundaries. There are fifty-four books in the series from Arno Press. They cover materials from the early ninteenth century to the present. There are, however, a few minor drawbacks. The collection was obviously designed to be purchased by a library. Its $904 price tag puts it out of the range of the average student, faculty member, or impoverished) gay (usually organization. But this limitation is overcome by the fact that each volume may be purchased separately. Those interested can find out which books they really want and obtain them for prices similar to those most of us pay for textbooks. The second problem I ran across is harder to describe. Several of the books are printed in ''N French. This is a hardship to those of us who do not have the talent for learning foreign languages. It also appears that there are no English translations of these vblumes available. The collection, in spite of these minor hinderances, is excellent. There is no way to describe its existence other than to say thay it falls into an area that can loosely be described as "political." By printing this series Arno Press has reinforced the claim for legitimization gays have been crying for for centuries. By providing a source for general academic study it has added to the cause for legal changes and altitudinal changes with regards those people who choose a lifestyle which fits their own tight, personalities and not confining molds created by an uptight, fearful society and augmented by the structures of religio -economic passe institutions. All people should start asking their local librarians for books in the Homosexuality series just bring home two points; gays do exist and their lifestyles need more study to insure a better or German popular understanding. —A.

The Cult in my mostly magenta mind somehow became intimately associated with the lurid, third-rate horror flicks churned out by Roger Corman (Rich's dad) except BOC lacked the visuals. They don't make Roger Corman soundtracks flames requires a cogent and cunning game plan, not just an endless skien of riffs composed of eannumbing cacophony and plain old sensory overload. The Cult has reached Plato's ideal, Aristotle's golden mean and Todd Rundgren's Utopia by means of solid songwriting, clever instrumentation and clean production. The result is an aesthetically balanced aural ballet of power chording and melodies. The Cult shifts between lyrical interludes and demonic raunch with amazing acumen, pulling you into swirling rhythms that sway and quake like senuous snakes on leather leashes. Yet, I'm dealing in glowing generalities and any critic worth his mustard stained chinos zeroes in on the jewel-edged particulars. "This Ain't the Summer of Love" would bring Charles Manson to his knees. It's a 2:20 bone cruncher that has all the murky, perverse power of Lou Reed before he became a Neil Young groupie. "Don't Fear the Reaper" is a brilliant fragment of romantic necrophelia. The hypnotic, Siren-soaked guitars and the whispered and layered vocals recall the best of the Byrds and Mott. Romeo and Juliet are used as justification for the ultimate union in death. It's a tune that even the old beardecf bard himself would have liked. Finally, at least for the particulars, there is "The Reve.nge of Vera Gemini" and Patti Smith lends her vocal chords to this effort. She trades off vocal assignments with Cult's Albert Bouchard with interesting results. Patti portrays a seductive, ethereal woman who is asked to forsake "horses" to swim like a fish.

The entertainer of the evening, Jerry Jeff Walker, is in the middle of a set. From a table in the ffont, he hears the rumBly growl of a the kind Utah Phillips would big, burly guy "five-foot-forty" as being describe "Hey, boy, do that song about the redneck." Now Jerry Jeff knows that "the song about the redneck" doesn't speak too highly of them; he knows that if he does it, the guy's likely-lo get so pissed that he'll beat the hell out of him. But if he doesn't do the song, the same thing'll probably happen. Well, fuck it. He does the song anyway. And he walks off stage, right into a roundhouse right from Mr. 5-40, who then reduces Jerry Jeff's guitar to splinters, and beerily stumbles out. It sounds like a harrowing story, but Walker smiles when he tells it, like someone describing a rueful event in the Old Home Town. That's exactly what it is, too. Walker's a folkie of long standing, writer of the legendary "Mr. Bojangles," holding his he "Couldn't Do Nothin'f Right," though he tried to own in the big time, but his heart belongs to the work things out ("Won t You Give Me One More corner saloons where he swilled oceans of beer, Chance"); about’hitching around, "just a high hobo learned to handle raucous drunks, and generally put in the breeze," heading for Texas but "settling for El in an arduous apprenticeship as what's been recently Paso" ("Head Full of Nothin' "). Finally, he shrugs all of his lost hopes off: "I guess an old five and dubbed an "outlaw singer." Look at the cover of It's A Good Night For dimer/ls all I intended to be." In time, he meets up with a lady who's willing Singin'.

There's a wornout old Williams to Tom Paxton, to Loudon Wainwright, singer who keeps telling himself "Someday I'll Get fueled by several foamy pitchers. Although it's a Out Of These Bars," but who knows he'll never do studio record, Jerry Jeff's album has the same kind it. There's Stoney, another transient, traveling with an old concertina, a "gray pillowcase full of books of loose, friendly, one-in-the-morning mood. He's not writing much anymore; the only by Durrell," and a head full of old gospel songs. original song on the album, "Stony," is six years old. The "Dear John Letter Lounge" is missing one But he's developed a good nose for finding nice bar of its regulars tonight; he's given up the, "fly by night life" and gone home to his wife for good. But songs. The "bar song" pigeonhole shares a lot of space with the one marked "country;" what it leaves there's someone to take his place: his woman just out is the sticky sentiment and Bible Belt mentality ran out on him, and he keeps telling the bartender, the "Please don't play me no more heavies, Leroy/ I that the C&W available on, say, "Hee Haw" continually churns out. can't take them sad songs anymore .." hack, cliche country song Finally, the music starts; Jerry Jeff's singing Some people go to bars to forget their troubles; others, to look for something that can pass as love; about Saturday nights, and old five and dimers, and so much more gritty and real others, just to meet friends for a good time. Some Dear John letters even go to sing. For someone who lives on the road, than the slicked-back, squeaky-clean Big Nashville bars can mean all those things, but they're mostly product.

But the house lights came on while scenes of his Harry Chapin-like stories rushed through my mind. After a very short time, (thanks to efficient roadies) the Jefferson Starship took the stage for what would prove to be a two-and-one-half hour music ("Extravaganza" extravaganza. the because the music was long word does not necessarily connote quality.) What was definite from the moment Starship launched into their first number ("Ride The Tiger") was that the group was out tp have a "good time." The last time that expression fit was last summer,' when the Stones appeared at Rich Stadium; their music was horrible but the crowd was jubilant because of sheer stage presence and the knowledge that Jagger was having a "good time." — Den mother A thought which poked its meandering way into my mind as Starship wailed "Hot Water" from Spitfire was that Grace Slick holds, controls and consoles the group like a mother from a conventional family or a leader in a liberal commune. She dances up to each Starship member to check that all is calm and sees that her children are safe from the stormy masses. Quite a change from Airplane-Woodstock days. Starship in orbit is not as musically tight as I had expected. It's not Paul Kantner's fault (as he harmonizes with his usual fine gloss), nor is it Craig Chaquico's adequate guitar; the rub comes with John Barbata's booming and tedious drums, replete with solos that sounds like high school band marches and last ten minutes. Also, Marty Balin sounds very thin and childishly hollow as he plays top-forty showman in a twenty-minute rendition of "Volunteers," by telling the audience to clap and sing at his whim. With a man like this • —continued from page 5 • — • around, Peter Frampton and his pretty boy crowpl control had better beware. Balm's voice in a live Setting is suited well, though, to sixties type rock 'n, roll (as witnessed in the songs "Cruisin'" and "Big 'City"). This is the appropriate time for wailing and departure from a tune's written notes, but deviations on such tunes as "Miracles" and its rehash, "With Your mistaken only serve purpose, as they sour mood. Grace Slick is in all ways perfect as she sipgs with the audience (even to me) and carries on with light comedic remarks to hold the act together. She talks about tongues in a sexual way as Chaquico's guitar licks a bluesy solo which turns into "White Rabbit," and finishes her tongue routine by adding lyrics to the song: "Remember what the doormouse said/ Give some head, give some head." consequent Love" nutshell It was a good concert but had Balin been less vocally delinquent Starship could have been great.

Prodigal Sun �Editor’s note: The following Student Association statement was sent to President Robert Ketter. We at Student Association are appalled at your recent decision to discontinue the Charter of Social Science College. Although we were not surprised at cither the decision or the manner in which the decision was made, we urge you to re-evaluate it. The value of the majority report of the Chartering Committee was not truly"reflected in the final outcome. The major purpose of a majority report of any select committee on campus, is to come out with recommendations on its assigned topic, since they would be the most knowledgeable body on that topic after their deliberations. By choosing the minority report as well as relying heavily on your Academic Cabinet, you are by-passing the significance behind the majority report. Nowhere in the majority report did it recommend that the college be phased out. On the contrary,'the Chartering Committee strongly supported an extension of the Social Science College Charter. All of the members of the College Chartering Committee subject matter which the the importance of recognize constitutes the academic core of Social Sciences College. There is both a need and demand for other perspectives and orientations by which to describe and understand societal processes. However, where the three voting members who selected the option of revdcation and discontinuation felt that the College as presently constituted could not adequately implement its academic program, the six voting members opting for continuation of provisional approval were more optimistic. The majority report emphasizes the importance of the college. It states that its function is: To study social processes from a radical perspective and to develop models which may then be applied to current social problems. Their curriculum has been designed to provide an orientation to social and political theory currently underrepresented at the State University of New York at Buffalo. It then points out that in Social Science College At least theoretically an "ideal”learning environment may have been established. and Because of the relatively small class sizes, student input is strongly encouraged and informal, academic environment where for the most part dialogue replaces didacticism. One of the major reasons you have stated in making your decision was: Concern over the lack of, or at best uncertain qualifications of some of the instructors to teach courses assigned to them. The key word here is “some.” This does not imply most of the instructors, or even a majority of them, but just a few. It then goes on to say: - However, to the credit of many of the faculty participants in the College, considerable time is spent with students, in academic pursuits, outside of regularly scheduled class time. Again, let us emphasize that two-thirds of the committee supported the majority report. The minority report was written by only one person and supported by but one third of the overall committee. We make this assumption by noting that it was written in the first person singular, (i.e., my impression; / am not convinced.) The major contrast between this report and the majority report is that “Gut feelings and personal views play a major role as opposed to the majority report which bases its report on testimonies and facts. Did the author in fact write this report because she honestly felt her views were in the best interest of the University or was it merely a personal disagreement with the philosophy of the College? A report should evaluate its subject matter honestly, without bias. Clearly this was not the case in the minority report. We disagree with the comment that (she is); Not convinced that a need for this College does exist in the minds of the students. Following the suggestion by the Academic Planning Committee that Social Sciences be phased out, I noted no letters to The Spectrum from students of the College petitions Contrast that lack of response to that evoked by the phasing out of the undergraduate program in Social Welfare and the present uproar over the cutting of programs in Sociology, Social Welfare, etc. There have not even been letters of support for Social Sciences College, sent to the Committee or to the newspapers, by any of the other Colleges. On the contrary, many students were upset over the results of the Academic Planning Committee Report pertaining to Social Science College. As members of Student Association we receive a lot of input, undoubtedly more than Ms. Howell does, (keep in mind the Academic Planning Committee Report was released during election week, allowing thousands of*'students to give us their opinion.) Petitions were started, letters were written and signs of protest were conspicuous on campus. But alas Ms. Howell did ndt see them. Instead she just assumes that no one cared (or students were against the college’s existence). We guess if you do not want to find something, you just do not look. Just as upsetting as the decision, was the method in which it was done. When the Committee was formed students had only three representatives. However, one of the student members could not attend any of the meetings first semester, due to a conflict in her class schedule. It is important to note, that no other members had conflicts in their schedules. This coupled with the fact that Bertram Herbert did not join the Committee until second semester, left only one student on the Committee for the first semester. , Furthermore, after talking to one of the students on the Committee, we discovered that she was not getting regular (or proper) notice of the meetings. Often the notice would arrive days later or hours before the meeting was to be held. The student also felt she was misled with the secrecy behind the whole affair. She told us that it was implied by the Committee that the reports would be made public when they were sent to you. However, they were not. We at Student Association feel that the lack of public disclosure was a drastic mistake. The releasing of the report, as well as requests for input from the different constituent groups, was essential in arriving at a fair conclusion. But none of this was sought. It should be noted that Social Science College was not asked to respond to their “Accusor.” If the accusations were wrong, they should have been allowed to refute them. No student groups were asked for their input. After this decision does affect students. When we talked to all, Somit about both these points, he said he did not feel Dr. it was necessary to talk to anyone from Social Science College. As far as Student Association goes, we found out about the decision by mistake'. When we spoke to Dr. Somit, he said we could write a response to the reports (in which we still had not seen) and if we got it in by the next day, it may or may not be considered. We,felt it was implied that it would not, as our input seemed at most unwanted. But we wrote the response anyway. We assume it was read with “a grain of salt.” The only one who was aware and allowed to respond was Dr. Spitzberg. Dr. Spitzberg, who has always been on the record as being opposed to the College, backed the minority report. The College’s Council, however, voted 8-2-2 to back Social Science College. This, as well as other examples, brings up another point: How successful can the head of an academic branch be if there is a great deal of dissatisfaction in the units under him? This is something that should not be skimmed over lightly, but seriously considered. The final point we would like to raise is that of your The Academic Cabinet. By chief advisor on this issue a cross-section of the seeking to them not and turning University for input, you have limited your ability to view the entire issue. Therefore, on behalf of the Undergraduate Student Association, we would like to make the following — requests:: l)That students sit as regular members on your Academic Cabinet. This would be an important step in obtaining a wider range of input when you make your decision. 2. We are appealing the decision of Social Science College to you, as President of this University. Hopefully you will then actively seek input from all concerned parties and re-evaluate your decision and decision-making process. The college must not be convicted for “political” reasons alone; individual whims must not be the ultimate reason for its downfall or survival. The State University motto boldly declares “Let each become all he is capable of being,” and in this case its meaning stands out clearer than ever. Courses that challenge the norm, that teach both political and social theory and thought that might be contrary to this country’s challenge the student’s awareness of his environment, and can only be beneficial to both the individual and the community. Finally, there exist no other departments at this time that offer this type of curriculum and openness, and due to the severe cutbacks this university has suffered, there exists little hope for its development in the future. The student on this campus pays for the right to open education, and the Social Science College has shown that it can provide an able program, an awareness that diversifies it from the structured departments. Thank you for your time and co-operation. Steven Schwartz, President Studen t A ssociation Andrew Lalonde A cademic A ffairs Director Student Association Friday, 16 July 1976 The Spectrum . . Page nine �Seneca Indians see bright light in land deal negotiation by Nancy Ellett Campus Editor The Seneca Nation of Indians will see a construction project claim another piece of ther 25,000 acres of reservation land, but this time following negotiations with New York State which all parties consider fair, according to statements by representatives on both sides. The project will close a 16 mile gap in the Southern Tier Expressway (Route 17), running through the Allegany Reservation at Salamanca, New York, near the Pennsylvannia state line. The. pact was termed “historic” by William Hennessy, Executive Deputy Commissioner of Transportation, because for the first time in modern history Native Americans of New York State were treated as equals at the bargaining table. A federal often made meager reimbursements to the original inhabitants. ThiS"goes back to the early 19th century purchase by New York State of the land where Buffalo now It cost 48.5 cents an acre. Robert Hokg, President of the Seneca Nation, expressed" satisfaction over the agreement. He told the The York Times, “Times have changed. This is an excellent deal. We want to see the expressway completed because it will benefit everybody.” New York State Department of Transportation likewise found the pact agreeable.. Hennessy commented, ‘There has been no such agreement before. For the first time we had to reach an agreement without the right of emminent domain behind us.” court ruling removed the state’s normal power of emminent domain. The Seneca Nation will be giving the State an easement on but not title to 795 acres of reservation land for which they will receive an equivalent piece of land from Allegany State Park, nearly two million dollars to individual residents, and other considerations. The State will also purchase privately owned property to replenish state park land given to the Senecas and will make improvements on the park land. — — Proponents of the Native American cause claim that there was an attempt across the centuries to recapture their lands and return them to a taxable status. Edmund Wilson, in his book Apologies to the Iroquois, claims that studies showed the 1958 Kinzua Dam project, which inundated one third of the Allegany reservation land, to be a needless waste of money. Engineers hired by the nation to assess the proposal concluded that the dam would better achieve its purpose and cost two thirds the price if the river were diverted several miles to a large glacial Emminent domain overturned Negotiations for road construction usually begin with state condemnation of the land to be confiscated with a lair market value for the land named by the 1974 Supreme Court state.

'Way of the World combines wit and cruelty , — High style Millamant is not only witty; she is also the least cruel, and most attractive, of the play’s charaxters. Her comparative generosity arises not so much at from a moral indignatiop cruelty as from an aesthetic rejection of it. Millamant’s wit is emminently capable of artfully as she proves in attacking others her dialogue with Marwood in Act but she prefers, like III - - Mirabell, to cause no pain. Maggie Smith is particularly adept at conveying this aesthetic distaste for anything crude or unkind, arid -her performance throughout is a tour de force, an exhibition of high style which carries everything before it. by beautifully Alan -Scarfe, particularly the key scene of his dialogue with Marwood in Act 11. Although Fainall is a despicable character in many ways, we are meant to feel as much concern for his predicament in this scene as to feel for the play allows He sees through anyone. Marwood’s lies (she really is in love with Mirabell), but, conscious of his own moral lapses and desperate to keep her, succumbs to her demands. The emotional dynamics are very complex, here as throughout the play, and Scarfe succeeds admirably in walking the thin line between our sympathy and our contempt. His wit becomes more and more brittle as the play proceeds, and the desperation he exhibits in this scene hardens convincingly into a pompous and dictatorial cruelty. Jeremy Brett is excellent as Mirabell. His cleverness, charm, and consummate manners render quite comprehensible the powerful attraction most of the other characters feel for him. Even if Mr. Brett were no more than adequate, however, it would not matter. probably Congreve organizes things in such a way as to deflect serious moral criticism of Mirabell, of the sort we do direct against Fainall. Mirabell’s faults are never brought up to his face, or only in such ways that they can be dismissed. They are, so to speak, thrown outside the boundaries of the play. Comedy of cruelty Mirabell is, in his actions, the cruelest and most self-serving character in The Way of the As Fainall, Alan Scarfe is World. He has married off his nearly as perfect as she. His is the mistress, Mrs. Fainall (warmly most difficult of the male roles in played by Mia Anderson), to a the play, a much more demanding rogue (Fainall), in order to cover part than Mirabell, who only has up a suspected pregnancy. Not to be charming and clever. Fainall content with this escape and her begins the play on an equal compliance, he has held onto footing with Mirabell, as they joke control of her property, unwilling together about their respective to relinquish his material gains romantic and financial problems. even while he evades the moral In fact, since Fainall has delivered consequences of his actions.

Millamant is the first woman he has met who is as tough, and as ironically detached as he is. The picture of their future marriage conjured up in their great Act IV humorously and dialogue — played touchingly by Maggie Smith and Jeremy Brett is like a colder version of the relationship between Beatrice and Benedick in Much Ado Ahum Nothing. Mirabell and Millamant do love each other, but it is only the fact that they could never rely upon each other which will keep them together. Millamant says that as soon as things get settled, they become boring. In a world like this, one can only be alive to someone who does not finally know one whom one holds in — anticipation. Self-conscious society Finally, 1 would like to add a word about the play’s theatrical self-consciousness, which is prominent in the Stratford production. It manifests itself in: references to other plays; remarks, at various points, about the the Prologue and theater; (addressed to the Epilogue audience); and Witwould’s Pointedly low In a way, what this play is comment upon entering the last about is not taking anything act; “Hey day! What are you all gof together, like players at the end of the last act?” Self-reference in drama can have a variety of effects. In this case, it seems to me', 'Congreve is more immediate and making of specific his criticism Restoration society. It is not just the foibles of the aristocracy the gentlemen and ladies of ‘manners” which he is ironically reflecting. It is, more, particularly, that segment of Restoration Society which was attracted to cruel and witty plays, like this one. The standard satirist’s defense, presented in the and Epilogue, is Prologue congruent with this. It prevents censure by any members of the audience by charging that anyone who finds fault with it must have been hit by one of the play’s satiric darts. By the same token, the audience which came to look af and laugh at the theatrical conventions of Restoration comedy of manners is forced (or, permitted) to least, at contemplate the cruelty that lies behind that enjoyment. Congreve is saying, it seems to me, that the sensibility which relishes brilliant wit devoid of kindness is just as guilty as the mind that produces it or the characters-of-humors who embody it.

It is a play of brilliant wit and considerable cruelty, and both characterize the qualities production at the Stratford (Ontario) Shakespeare Festival, under the direction of Robin Phillips. It comes as near to being a definitive production of this play as we are likely to see. Maggie Smith is absolutely perfect for this sort of play and for the role of Millamant. Her arch, intelligent, fluttery- but completely self-possessed wit the quality she has displayed in Privdte Lives; The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie and in numerous seems to other performances ‘ have been created and developed specifically to play Restoration Comedy, and this character above all. It is a world of affectations; Millamant succeeds because she is a first-rate ironist who refuses to take anything seriously. Maggie Smith has so much style that she can permit us to enjoy fully Millamant’s frivolity without for a moment letting the character appear trivial. She, like Millamant, laughs at the roles she is playing while she plays them, and thus shares her enjoyment with us. makes false love to his former mistress's mother; Lady Wishfort, in order to have access to Millamant, her niece. And he only pursues Millamant in a which will ensure that he gets his hands on her money, too. Even as he joked with Fainall in the first scene, Mirabell was deceiving him, holding the trump card of his legal possession of Mrs' Fainall s property, which he produces at the end. If we knew all this at the start, our judgement of Mirabell’s actions might be very different. But, in fact, this is all presented in such a way that we do not condemn him. We identify with Mirabell, we come to look at the world of the play with him, rather than looking at him in the play. Congreve does not bring his faults into direct confrontation with his virtues, as he does Fainall’s and Lady Wishfort’s. We are not forced to confront our contrary reactions to Mirabell. His faults are there, however, and serve as a means of distancing us from the whole world of the play. Our potential ambivalence to him becomes an atmosphere or tone of ironic detachment that hovers over the entire play. Since we look at this world with him, our detachment from him is a detachment from ourselves, or from our own sympathies. In the cruelty and sparkling wit which are the way of this play’s world, the hero is the most graciously cruel and stylishly brilliant. then | Spectrum Arts Staff the Prologue, we might say that he initially claims more of our sympathies than does Mirabell. Certainly, he is as witty, and rather more genial, in the opening scene. Over the course of the play, Congreve gradually reduces him before our eyes to the grasping, clumsy, and nasty bitter, character he has become by the end. l by Michael Wing - STUDENT DISCOUNT On Repairs $ With I.D. 1375 Millersport Hwy.

The stage is being constructed near the casino on the lake using the sloping grass behind the rose garden as the seating for the audience. The play will be offered free of charge to students and the community. Funding for the program has come from Summer Session fund, a grant from the Dean of Graduate Studies, endowment funds from the Center for Theatre Research, and a donation from the Student Association. Dr. Saul Elkin, chairman of the Theatre Department, conceived the program wTlJ? strong feelings about offering it as “a gift towards the betterment of the cultural and spiritual life” of the Buffalo community. He hopes to make it a regular attraction modeling it after the summer Shakespeare Festival in New York City’s Central Park. An amphitheatre in the park is part of. his plan for a place where people can see the “great plays” without having to go to the City. Elkin has another, stronger motivation for producing the program: to give students in the Theatre Department here an opportunity to work in a “non-academic environment in which their time is not divided between plays and classes.” Here they could apprentice in a professional .environment something that'-is'very rare in this area\ THE RATE for classified ads is $1.40 for the first 10 words, 5 cents each additional word.

The Public Hearings Bill.fS. 10121) and the bill clarifying the rights and privileges of non-voting student members of the SUNY Board of Trustees and College Councils (A. 10324) encountered little resistence in either house of the Legislature, despite strong opposition from the Trustees.

Rifts develop between friends, husband and wife, father and son. Time is an important factor, since it serves as a healing agent in troubled relationships. Shakespeare also uses The Winter’s Tale to explore the relationship between generations. In this play younger people educate their parents about interpersonal values. The cast is a combination of students and former students, with one exception. Jerry Finnegan, who plays the lead role, is, in Elkin’s words, “really a find.” He has extensive professional experience, including the New York Shakespeare Festival and the Stratford, Connecticut Festival. He has studied under the former head of England’s Royal Academy of the Dramatic Arts. Finnegan plays Leontes, King of Sicilia, a man who becomes insanely suspicious and jealous of the relationship between his wife Hermione and his best friend Polixenes, although in fact they are innocent in thought and deed.

TWO roommates needed for WANTED plus The bill mandates that the Trustees hold four public hearings on SUNY campuses annually. SASU President Frank Jackalone termed the legislation “a great stride toward a truly open and democractic public University.” The other bill ensures the rights of student representatives on the SUNY Board of Trustees and each institution’s College Council to make and second motions and place ideas on the agenda, thus granting them all the privileges of the voting members. SASU Legislative Director termed the passage of the bills “progressive,” and was especially pleased because New York was the only remaining state which did not have this kind of legislation. Jackalone said it is unfortunate that the Trustees had to be “forced” to “responsibly appear before . the University constituents whom they most affect.” “The fact of the matter is that the Trustees have refused to appear before a public gathering to solicit impact into the direction and focus of the University,” he said. “The Trustees stand in direct contradiction of their City University counterparts, the Board of Higher Education, which has voluntarily opened its formal meetings.” . .

Berlin admitted he did not list three former jobs, explaining that they were of such short duration that an employer would have little basis for an accurate judgement. One union member said that it is common practice to leave out such jobs when filling out applications and is usually not questioned. Contributing Editor The firing of a local union newspaper editor has led to charges of “unjustified attack” by members of the union, Local 1183 of the United Steelworkers of America (USWA). Jim Berlin, the editor of the paper, was fired the T.R.W. by Company, J.H. industrial tool an producer, last April 14. The local union went into arbitration with the Company last Friday to regain Berlin’s job, although a decision is not expected for at least a month. Former union President, Irving and elected newly Bryant, Presidents Sam Triggs, issued a joint statement several weeks ago claiming the firing was an a on “all of labor” which mu “confronted by a united labor Williams, movement.” A spokesperson from the Public Relations Office of J.H. Williams declined to comment on the issue. ‘Falsified application’ According to union officials, Berlin was dismissed from the company because he “falsified his The t.R.W. Company positively evaluated Berlin’s wofk during his two and a half year stay maintained with the union officials. Rank-and-file The Steelworkers District 4 < Rank and File Committee charged in the May issue of its newsletter, fTY, that J.H. Williams fired lin, a leader in the committee, to “Influence the elections of Local 1183” and “to halt the growing unity in the shop.” Over half of the 1183 Rank and File candidates were Committee elected to union office on a militant program calling for job security, an end to discrimination, Unproved health and safety, political action, trade union education, full union democracy and full representation on the AFL-ClO council. Trigge, current President of Local 1183, is Co-chairman of the 4 District Rank and File Committee, which includes steelworkers from. Bethlehem Republic, Anaconda, Dresser and other Western New York area steel plants.

The company claims he was there for 45 minutes, while other workers say it was only three or four minutes. Berlin filed a grievance. Two days latet, the company told Berlin he was fired for falsifying his application. The following day it withdrew the disciplinary action for his break and paid him for his lost time. UNITY explains that the company “made It known that they would not allow him to be a teller in the union elections” which were to be held In the plant cafeteria, but would allow him to vote* A spokesperson for the company maintains Berlin was “not stopped” from being a teller, but would not say if he preformed this task. Berlin insists that he was not permitted to be a teller. UNITY reported that the company’s charges of falsification of the job application were based upon an “anonymous” phone call received immediately after the “Labor Committee” handed out more'literature at the plant which carried wild accusations against Then, Berlin. to according UNITY just three days before the “Labor union election, the Committee” came to the plant gates again with literature which , revealed a bomb was to go off in the cafeteria during the local elections. ‘Fradulent discharge' The elections went on anyway, UNITY asked, “Does the “company call them (the “Labor Committee”! in when they need a “hit man” against workers who stand up for the men and women in the shop?” Berlin said, “The company has gone all out to keep me out of the plant.” When asked whether this is a personal attack against him, Berlin replied, “No. Any union member who fights for his rijhts or the rights of others could also come under attack from the company. Every man and woman in the shop knows this Is a fradulent discharge,” Berlin said, —continued on page 2— Library needs tops in budget m Scholastic Housing is Santos closed by Sub Board by Steve Greune Staff Writer Spectrum Poor organization by the directors of Scholastic Housing, tnc. has been the major factor which led to the demise of the experimental off-campUs cooperative, according to members of Sub Board I. Scholastic Housing is a division of Sub Board, which distributes about $300,000 in student activity fees. Sub Board is comprised of representatives of the six student governments. Crescent House at 252 Crescent Avenue, is the 22 bedroom rooming house owned by Scholastic Housing. It was purchased in the Fall of 1973 for about $16,500. Conservative estimates by a few independent real estate assessors now value the house at about $8,000. In a report to Sub Board Scholastic Housing Chairman Ed Cavan, suggestions that poor planning by the original directors plagued the experiment from its inception. Crescent House, according to Cavan, is too far away from the Main Street Campus to justify living there. Transportation costs are too great when added to a student’s basic monthly expenses. Declining enrollment and inflation also contributed to expenses, he suggested. Wrong people “the house was set up to be a cooperative living experience where residents Were supposed to share the responsibilities of running the -continued on page a—- Library acquisitions and graduate and leaching stipends are the top priorities in the University’s budget request for 1977-78. The book-sized budget request, which was shaped by the severe reductions in staff and funding last year, also lists as goals the funding of a Primary Health Care Program and a center for the Study of the Aging, a degree granting program in Architecture, and computer, services which would compensate for mandated cuts in staff. The goals in the budget request were prepared by the nine-member budget committee, which is comprised of a cross-section of University members. The request was defended before State University financial officers in Albany last week by President Robert Ketter and an entourage which included Student Association President St ve Schwartz. The budget request asks that the funds for library acquisitions be increased $770,000 overall to adequately maintain the library up-to-date for now, and, apart from the affects of inflation, in the coming years. funding in potentially available, according to the request. Health Care The request for the Prirrtary Health Care Program is for three faculty lines and $55,000 to be allotted to the Schools of Medicine and Nursing. An additional (wo faculty lines and $34,000. more is requested, if more money is available. The Center for the Study of Aging has already begun operations using endowment funds, and has laid the groundwork for teaching and research. The Center has so far obtained four grants and has applied for four more. Students will begin enrolling in the undergraduate major in social gerontology this fall. The request is for the equivalent of one and a half faculty lines and $29,000. The request adds that the Center will actively export its services to the community. “It is well on the way to becoming a clearinghouse for gerontological knowledge and information. It-is ably . and aggressively managed.” The request for the degree program in Architecture, offered in the School of Architecture and Environmental Design, is for the equivalent of two full time faculty lines and $23,000. This University is the only SUNY unit offering a degree in Architecture. Enrollments are expected to increase by 30 percent in both the undergraduate and graduate programs this year, and a new professor is bringing national prominence to the program, the request reported. Biggest problem The biidget request says that library acquisitions has beeri identified as the single most pressing academic problem in the University. “All of our academic programs are suffering substantially” from the lack of support according to the request. It says the present acquisition budget provides one-hajf the minimum funding required to maintain the library up-to-date. The budget request also asks for $300,000 for Results of cuts graduate and teaching stipends, which it said would The introduction to the budget request states increase the average stipend of graduate and teaching last year’s reductions, “necessary as they may that assistants at the University to $3460, close to the have been in view of the State’s fiscal problems, have level of support offered at comprable institutions. had a number of adverse consequences.” These “The stipends situation is serious for all SUNY consequences are: University Centers.

Since then the disease has spread to at least 38 states in the continental US. Destroying the inner bark of each of its victims, the fungus disease has killed millions of elms in this country. An estimated cosf of tree removal and replacement from DED is 100 million dollars annually. The European bark beetle is capable of transmitting the disease to all varieties of elm except the “Siberian.” according to Edwin Drabek, the Buffalo City Forester.

While to trying decipher clues surrounding Emprise Corporation, a dog and horse racing syndicate which is based in Buffalo, Bolles was fatally injured by explosives planted in his car on June 2. Before he died eleven days later, he told medics “The finally got me,” and murmured the “Adamson” and names “Emprise.” Larry Kraftowitz, former editor-in-chief of The Spectrum and presently working on an internship with Jack Anderson, however, was assigned to pick up the pieces of the puzzle where Bolles left off. Investigating in Arizona, Kraftowitz found one dead end after another. Fred Porter, a Phoenix businessman and one of Bolles’ sources who met with him secretly the morning of his death, admitted seeing Porter, but refused further comment. An attorney for Ramcorp Metals, Inc., an Emprise Affiliate, also refrained from discussing the matter. And Keith Nation, an ex-jockey that Porter allegedly encountered that day on his way to find Bolles in the press room, could not be located.

Friday, 9 July 1976 . The Spectrum Page three . �I TRB Editorial Bicentennialism There is an expectant air abogt America this year. Despite the commerical horrors of the Bicentennial and the uncertainty over the next president, there is the expectation that this year is special, possibly marking a changing point in American life, maybe the beginning of an epoch of peace and stability. Some of these expectations take their strength from the revival and reexamination -ot traditional American values that has been prompted by the Bicentennial; others, taking Watergate to heart, look anxiously toward the election of one of the two anti-Washington candidates, Reagan or Carter; many others rely on the election of Jimmy Carter, V/ho, though his politics are indefinite, believe in the honesty of his smile. And so, in what ordinarily would have been another dreary year of climbing out of the recession, we find there is great anticipation of change for the better; and the feeling sdme improvement will be made this year. To begin to explain this expectation of progress, one must rememberfirst that the Bicentennial is primarily a historical revival, a popularization of Colonial American history, and a sentimental idealization of what we today believe to be the true American spirit. In 1 other words, the Bicentennial is reawakening historical consciousness in Americans, and forces us to ponder where we have come from and where we are going. This is the use to which history has always been put by mankind. In a sense, it forces us to become philosophical and seek the meaning of history. And people have sought the meaning of history persistently through the ages, as a defense against the terror inherent in the consideration of so much meaningless human suffering. Are this year's expectations overly optimistic? Are we only rationalizing the continuing poverty and unemployment in America? Are we becoming defensive about the humiliation of Vietnam and the decline of American influence worldwide? Americans are reacting to what would appear to be major failings in our system; the great domestic issues of poverty and face go unresolved, the great problems among countries become more complicated and entangling. Most Americans realize that the optimistic expectations of the 1960's are still unfulfilled, and they have reacted with a new spirit of isolationism and conservatism. At the same time, many of the liberal precepts of the 1960's have been subtly endorsed by Americans who speak of these ideals less frequently because they are now assumed to be true, are a part of our consciousness, for a while at least. Perhaps the biggest lesson of this type is that of Watergate, and its confirmation of so many people's suspicion and distrust of government. Americans who fear the growing Communist world put their support behind strengthening America militarily. Those who do not feel threatened by the changing political balance (who stress, for example, conflict within the Communist world, and detente) emphasize domestic problems. This does not do justice to the variety of opinions currently flourishing, the point is that no Single point of view is likely to dominate the others in this country for quite some time, and that because of this the kind of policy we can expect from our next president, is likely to be piecemeal, one crisis ?t a time. This, we can only conclude, will deny any unified advancement in America overall. Individual problems will either improve or deteriorate according to the ingenuity of the individual solutions we apply. Certainly America is in a time of change. Beyond this, however, the future is impossible to predict, mainly because of the biased frame of reference with which we surround our prediction, and the awareness that all world views are relative, and will pass with time. The Bicentennial and the presidential election have suggestive powers which color our opinions very thoroughly, and cause us to believe we are on the eve of a new age. By tomorrow morning we should all know better.

Paqi four Tht Spoctrum Friday, 9 July 1976 . . ; from Washington July 6,1976 With mounting wonder this reporter has seen one of the most important Senate debates in recent years go almost unreported for the past three weeks. A great Christmas Tree tax grab has been in process for the benefit fo the rich against the middle-incomes and the poor. Strong bipartisan voices of protest are raised by men who carry respect, Edward Kennedy of Massachusettes, Edmund Muskie of Maine, Fritz Mondale of Minn., Henrty Bellmon of Okla., but the television and the press seem almost oblivious. Time and Newsweek are occupied with special Bicentennial ululations about Ben Franklin and Thomas Jefferson; television is watching Jimmy Carter; the printed press can’t spare a minute from speculation £m the next vice president. All that is at stake in the Senate debate is whether Congress will continue enough tax reductions to moderate the recession, whether the new Senate budget control procedure which was passed a couple of years ago almost by a miracle will work, and whether the present shocking disparity of income in the United States will be widened. Who was it who said the present tax structure is “a disgrace to the human race?” Why, Jimmy Carter, to be sure. A group of Senate tax reformers 4s fightingto improve matters, and the struggle may'Bontinueall summer. But who cares? you wouldn’t know about it from the papers. The plot is simple. The House, which originates tax matters, sent over a reasonably good bill to the Senate with a number of reforms. It went to the Senate with a number of reforms. It went to the Senate Finance Committee under Russell Long, the oil senator from Louisiana. There the amendments began. They reported out a bill 1536 pages long, as thick as a telephone book, — — — ' • “HR 113612.” bauble Here is one Christmas Tree added by the Long committee as described by good, dependable, Sen. Mondale: it would cost the Treasury $300 million a year. This would give “over 99 percent of the relief to the top one percent of American income levels,” • Mondale explains. These tax rebates and loopholes are enormously technical. It is terribly hard for the press to decipher and describe them. By the time any one particular gimmick is explained most of the space in the newspaper news “hole” is used up. This particular proposal Mondale explains would but the tax rate on “investment income” above $100,000 (income from mortgages, stocks and bonds) from the present 70 percent to a 50 percent ceiling. If your investment income is over $100,000 you would benefit. If you are part of the unemployed, working poor, or just an average income citizen you wouldn’t benefit, you would be taxed to make up the cost. This is one of Russell Long’s Christmas-in-July proposals, and this one was fortunately defeated last week, 66—17, but others weren’t. Pending are assorted goodies to corporations and special favorites; “to be paid for,” exclaimed Sen. ' ' 12-year retroactivity. Kennedy doesn’t say these items are bad; he listed 36 specific examples, big and little, June 28; he called them “special interest provisions,” perhaps a third of them, he thought, had merit. But why handle them like this, he demanded? On a single day, more than 50 so-called “midnight loopholes” tip-toed into the bill, he revealed; the last day of the bill’s mark-up, clothed in almost impenetrably technical phraseology. In 1$74 in America some 244 individual taxpayers with adjusted gross incomes of $200,000 or over paid no federal income tax at all. At the present time the wealthiest 5 percent of the nation’s citizens get 20 percent of the income. The Long so-called tax “reform” bill would enhance this disparity and deepen the loopholes. Alert Eileen Shanahan of the New York Times came up with a funny item ,the other day; a couple of “technical” amendments in the bill would benefit members of the Long family who receive royalties frdm oil leases held by trusts by thousands perhaps millions. The amendments to the House bill had been inserted without debate or formal vote. Sen. Long denied sponsorship. He was “not even thotoughly familiar with them” he said. Who put them in? Sen. Dole of Kansas. They were proposed for him by J.D. Williams, an oil industry lobbyist, he said. Where did Williams get them? From a lawyer (unnamed) from Louisiana. Sen. Dole turned them over to a staff aide, Kim Wells, and Williams’ law partner, Donald C. Evans, Jr., was kind enough to help Kim Wells put them in shape. By coincidence, Williams and his family contributed $1500 to Dole, and $2050 to Long, in their 1974 reeelection campaign. “Son there we have it,” says the Washington Star editorially. “Two provisions drafted by lobbyists put into a tax bill at the request of lobbyists. No hearing. No chance for anyone who might oppose to testify.” — - Evaluate the Colleges To the Editor Richard Korman — “by the ordinary, hard-working. Proxmire, God-fearing average American family, to almost every major industry in the country.” “The shameful fact is,” Kennedy told the Senate, “that many of these special provisions have no merit at all. They are insinuated into the tax bills at the behest of lobbyists, and added at the' request of big campaign contributors. lt gives the obvious impression that the Internal Revenue 'ode is up for sale,” The press hasn’t been giving much attention to these technical matters. Chances are you got instead stories about uncommitted delegates, the big Reagan-Ford sporting event of the century, and whether Jimmy Carter would benefit more from Rep. Rodino or John Glenn as runningmate. Just the same these affect your pocketbook. Do you think Mobil Oil and other companies should be allowed to claim tax deductions for certain sums paid to Iran, which would cost the U.S. Treasury $40 million a year for 10 years? That’s in the bill. Should Congress overturn an IRS ruling requiring Marriott (hotel) Corporation and the Restaurant Employees Union to include tips (listed on charge account slips) for tax purposes? It’s in the bill; cost about $5 million. Should Coca Cola be allowed to exempt a particular franchise from personal holding company rules, reducing the tax rate from 70 percent to 48 percent? This item would include with it.

Cooper's Leatherstocking Tales survived Mark Twain's crochety literary complaints, the Lone Ranger has survived ingenious commercial (including a exploitation campaign by Geno's Pizza Rolls) and the satire of Lenny Bruce; and now the Wizard of Oz has survived a new book about it: Doug McClelland's Down The Yellow Brick Road: The Making of the Wizard of Oz. Oz is certainly one of the-fnost magical and affecting films of all time, the popularity of which is not an emblem of its slight worth but is a as is often the case real mythical true sign of ■ — — power. As all creations which have this compelling universal appeal and significance. The Wizard of Oz explains the world at the same time it cannot itself be explained. Yet McClelland, among other things, tries valiantly and fails —' to explain this film in his lame and fascinating book: lame for its and sometimes embarrassing nostalgia and for its indulgent awkward attempts to give Oz — mythical for perspective; fascinating its anecdotes, it technical detail, and its slight, but adequate, historical embrace. Down the Yellow Brick Road fails, in a way, not because McClelland searches for Oz's, meaning, but because he finds it. Ray Bolger, for instance, is quoted in the book's last chapter ("The Legend") as if to explain the Wizard of Oz: "The philosophy of Oz is man's search a heart, for basic human needs brains, courage. And that, chum, will never be old hat." Attempts like this to give The Wizard of Oz meaning it deserves not to have reminds me of every marriage manual ever written: scores of pictures and diagrams and yards of sincere prose are all woven about an uncomfortably simple core of meaning; it's nice. McClelland relies too much on Hamilton's bland Margaret testimony about the making of Oz. From the variety of his sources in quoting her it is obvious she is the one surviv/or of the original case most willing to be interviewed. As such, she shares with legions of other willing interview subjects a penchant for pleasant, but essentially useless, enthusiasms for the past. (At one point, referring to a musical sequence cut out of the film at the last moment, McClelland provides us with this deathless piece of parenthetical scholarship: "Margaret Hamilton recalls it as 'great'.") Of course, in his attempt to Oz with a firm provide — - significance in our own time, the author drags the familiar Dorothy Gale Judy Garland irony out of the closet and, once again, beats it to death before our glazed eyes. With a vise-like grip on an appropriate prose style he tells us on the last page of Down the Yellow Brick Road "Some — : — perhaps mostly recognise, too, that Dorothy's struggle to find happiness is analagous to the legendary Judy's."' And a few paragraphs later we discover; "Dorothy's/Judy's magic little red slippers had come to the end of — the Yellow Brick Road." But when McClellan is pot trying to be the Rod McKuen of film historiography, his material is so good, so. unexpected, so trivially fascinating, that the reader can well forget the writer and his weaknesses all together and, instead, count through a small fortune of anecdote and technical detail. A fevy examples: The Directors: Half a dozen directors tried their hand at the MGM version of the movie before ex-cameraman Victor Fleming finally took up the task. One of his predesessors was George Cukor who refused the job, rt is said, because he didn't understand the King actually story. Vidor directed the last three weeks of the filming (including the "Over the Rainbow" sequence) while Fleming started working on Gone With the Wind, which Was to win„ the Oscar that year, edging out The Wizard of Oz. The Cast: Except for Bert Lahr, Ray Bolger, and Charley Grapewin (who played Uncle Henry), all the principle actors of The Wizard of Oz were second or third choices: Shirley Temple was supposed to have been Dorothy; Buddy Ebsen was the original choice for the Tin Woodman in fact he sang and danced in the first two weeks of the shooting; Margaret Hamilton was only belatedly asked to do the part of the Wicked Witch, "just like that," when she ran into producer Mervyn UeRoy at a football game in Los Angeles one Saturday afternoon; and W.C. Fields, Ed Wynn, arid Wallace Beery were all considered for the Wizard's several roles before "beloved, befuffled MGM contract actor" Frank Morgan finally won the spot. (Fields refused it because he was then writing "You Can't Cheat an Honest Man" for Universal.)

She sometimes seems less to want his love than to want no one else to have it. Maggie Smith does not convey this desperate need to hold Anthony in body, nor the misdirection or fnisunderstanding it imples. Cleopatra is herself an actress, but actress-as-whore, willing to play any part, to become anything, and to abandon her identity and/or integrity. She frustrated at her. We feel she is playing a trivial, self-centered of, unaware and game, unconcerned for, the serious business at hand. By the end of the play, of course, we will come to feel that her instinctive perception upon which she was able to act only in the most misguided and self-defeating manner was wiser than ours, that the really serious business at hand was the deep love not the trivial one between her and Anthony, a love which only their deaths allow to take its true form. We come to feel that there was an irreconcilable rift between Egypt and Rome, and between the physical world and Anthony's Cleopatra's and exalted understandings of themselves and each other. It is as metaphors or symbols to each other that they most importantly exist. Though they cannot translate those metaphors into physical fact without becoming absurd, they can, as Sigurd Burckhardt argued in The King's Language, win through to their own proper realm where imaginative reality has detached itself from any necessary connection to a physical reality and has assumed its own validity as and meaning.

Perhaps it is because she relies upon the fluttery indecisiveness which has virtually become her acting trademark, and because this mannerism seems to come from the center of her being. indecisive — Love and lies Whatever the reason, there ought always to be a sense that Cleopatra's changeableness and wantonness are not profound, are — contrived, are all on the surface.

Friday, 9 July 1976 — Prodigal Sun �Mariposa A gentle atmosphere which makes the trip worthwhile Breathes there a folkie with soul so dead that (s)he. fails to take in at Igast one of thefolk festivals that dot North America like dandelions every summer? I don't think so. There's a very special feeling about any festival, and it has a lot to do with the nature of folk music and the people who love it. For one thing, those people do indeed love it enough to brave sometimes long and hard journeys, and hang the expense. What draws people to a folk festival is usually not the "stars"; it's the music itself, the vibrations that come out when people gather to celebrate an art which is made for us to share with each other. And we go not just to see it happen, but to do it ourselves as well. It's impossible to go through an entire festival without once Trying your hand all right, your feet at square dancing, joining in on a rousing chorus, or strumming your favorite Joni Mitchell 'song. Most of the time, the performers are friendly, too, with anyone who wants to talk to them as much as among themselves. The setting helps to gentle the mood, too acres of green grass, with a river or lake almost always nearby. And nowhere is the setting more lovely, the performers and audience more pleasant, or the mood more golden than at Mariposa.' — John Roberts and Tony Barrand ji \ Mariposa craftsmen. an experience in folk Every year, *at around the end of June, a major music happening takes place on a small island in Lake Ontario off the shores of Toronto,’ yet surprisingly few Americans know it exists. The Mariposa Folk Festival is actually a multi-faceted event, combining some of the most talented, but not necessarily most well-known musicians of North America and Great Britain with crafts exhibits Native demonstrations, and People's workshops, and activities towards geared especially an children. The result: experience that means a little bit different to everyone is remembered and but appreciated by all. Not so tong ago, I belpnged to the ranks of those who had never deeply in our past and continually enriches our present. I made my first trip to Mariposa last June, so this year, although a host of unfamiliar names turned up in the program, I felt much more at home. There's a special feeling at Mariposa which comes from lying on your back in the grass with the warmth of the sun penetrating your skin and the sound of great music penetrating your soul. The feeling is so strong that even a vicious rainstorm, which washed out the afternoon and early evening schedule from’ the second day (June 26) of the festival, could not three-day dampen the spirits of the soaking wet crowd. Although extremely intimate for an event of its size, the Festival is carefully structured and the major activity revolves around seven make-shift stages that are spread out over the grounds. The performers move from area to area throughout the tong days, , playing bearing titles like "List Ye Well, Songs at workshops Moral" With a Newfoundland Time." and "A Everyone's a star This year's most sought-after Margaret MacArthur heard of Mariposa. Having been what you might call a "music dilettante" my whole life, folk music, to me, meant the popular artists, like Joni Mitchell and Bob Dylan, with Dave Bromberg and Doc Watson standing on the sidelines.

Other favorites included Ken Bloom, who has mastered such unusual instruments as the concert zither, balalaika, and bandura; Sweet Honey in the Rock, four women who specialize in gospel and freedom songs; and Taj Mahal, a man with a big name and a big (who unfortunately talent missed). As an insert to the program notes, however, "All performers (and craftspeople) at Mariposa are considered 'stars' in the sense that each is an invited and valued participant." mentioned earlier that I Mariposa means something a little bit different to everyone. For many of the performers, it is often a reunion with old friends, a place to jam and exchange some of the musical knowledge and insights they have acquired since the last time they met. For most of the audience, it is a listening and learning experience, a total involvement with folk music and folk musicians. For children, it is a place to hear stories and run in the grass and watch paper-mache people come to life. If you haven't been to Mariposa yet, there's probably something there just for you don't miss it the next time around.

Like Amy, this was my second year at Mariposa; when I stepped off the ferry from the Toronto mainland to Center Island, walked past the concession booths, the Last-Year-At-Marienbad gardens, and the "Please Walk On The Grass" signs to the festival grounds. The Festival seemed to have gone on without stopping since last summer; it felt the Same. This time, though, there were white puffs floating in the air, the same kind that drifted through the town of Fellini's Amarcord. That was a memory, too. There was Robert Pete Williams, one of the very last of-the great Southern blUesmen, playing as hard as he can and then apologizing "This isn't my guitar; it's the best 1 can do with it." There were familiar sounds: the gentle, ethereal tones of Margaret MacArthur's voice and lap harp, and the strong, unaccompanied ones- of Scottish singer — Norman Kennedy.

(Barrand's Bill Mardschiello comment: "Watch out, Aly do you want to be buried in Toronto?) Several performers, including a large contingent from Newfoundland, were unable to make it because, of the Canadian air controllers' strike (settled, ironically, on the last day of the Festival). The strike was in protest of the use of French at airports. At Mariposa, though, there was no rancor evident as fiddler Louis Boudreault played, and Robert Pacquette even led a group-sing of "Alouette," (After which I overheard "Is he from Montreal or that — — Quebec?") Patchwork quilt "Here we're presenting a culture that's strong and viable, and that stands on its own." That statement by Bernice Reagon, embodiment of pride in being black and a woman, reaches far; every culture at the Festival stood on its own, while mixing with all the others. I saw it in Reverend Pearly Brown, whose legacy is that of Blind Willie McTell and Reverend Gary Davis, as he sat listening to Scottish piper Finlay Mac Neil.* I heard it in the African drummers whose tempo matched exactly with that of the mournful banjo and ancient tenor of Kentucky's Roscoe Holcomb. Taj Mahal, John Jackson, and Robert Pete Williams cover three generations of music, but it all came out blues. For sheer energy, the high point had to be the union of Steve Goodman, Ken Bloom, and Gamble Rogers, whose "Three Men In A Tub" workshop expanded into six with the unscheduled arrival of bassist Jim Gordon, harmonica master Saul Broudy, and Lewis London, who can smoke on anything with strings.

This year, Union Board Director Sue Casudo hopes to promote better cohesion within the group. "Last year each committee was on its own," she said. This year the major theme seems to be with the UUAB increased communication committee chairpersons participating in budget planning and knowledgeable about the programs of the other committees. The UUAB director also hopes to have a viable summer program next year. Last summer's busy program was made possible by a $10,000 profit in the UUAB — budget. According to Casudo and Business Manager Jeff Lessoff, the summer will always be a factor while budgeting for programs throughout, the regular fiscal year, and although money will not literally be set aside, there will be something “like a supplementary, budget."

'The Omen' scarier than 'The Exorcist' Looks are deceiving,.and from the looks of five-year-old Harvey Stevens, nobody would guess that he is really a little devil a Satan in the flesh. Scarier than The Exorcist, The Omen, starring Harvey Stevens, Gregory Peck (who still looks as good as ever) and Lee Remick, captures the audience's attention from the first death to the last minute. Throughout the movie, audiences sit white-knuckled at their seats To heighten the tension, a few seconds before anything is about to happen, Gregorian Chants are heard low at first, then rising to a momentous crescendo, making one’s hair stand on end.

Michael Anderson's by RandiSchnur Arts Editor What could be more mysterious than a murder committed not by the use of just any ordinary, garden-variety weapon, and not even ;by a new, unique method invented to dazzle unfortunate police laboratories but a murder by death, arranged by an eccentric sadist with no pinkies? (No, he does have ten fingers but there's not one pinky among them.) Illogical, yes, but certainly not without its possibilities; and in his first original screenplay, Neil Simon manages to exploit that potential with a wit and inventiveness virtually unmatched among his earlier adaptations.

The venerable Jessica Marbles (Elsa Lanchester) wheels her decrepit nurse into the dining room just in time to realize that, under .the supervision of Alec Guinness' blind butler and Nancy Walker's deaf-mute cook, dinner never will make it to the table. Everyone else does, though, and tries to stay there, as their host has explained that the evening's entertainment will climax promptly at midnight. When the surprise murderer's surprise victim finally shows up looking ready for a barbecue (as the main course, naturally, wiffpk more than adequate spit stuck neatly into his back), the survivors are clearly relieved, and Diamond settles the question of his death coolly but not without sympathy; "With a thing like that in his back, he's better off in the long run.’ Great expectations The sometimes unlikely casting turns out to be impeccable as the whining brat who stages all the excitement in the first place, Truman Capote is — Predigal Sun almost too good and it had better be, as the marvelously (and literally) shifty-eyed cardboard cut-outs by cartoonist Charles Addams which introduce the characters set expectations awfully high.

Page nine �RECORDS Ian Matthews, Go For Broke (Columbia) Ian Matthews is what you could call a rather obscure musical personage, that is if you were so inclined. Matthews' obscurity had led me to believe he had forsaken the music industry for the aluminium siding and storm-window trade, but Go For Broke proves just how wrong a critic can be. It shows that the doctrine of infallibility doesn't apply to us longhaired another curators of musical excellence myth shot to hell. Getting back to the subject at hand, Ian's musical history is rather mundane. He enjoyed a stint with the Fairport Convention, only then to follow a solo career that was occasionally allied with a band called Southern Comfort. From the Anglo-folk meanderings of the Convention, Ian journeyed into folk-rock and a bit of distilled country music. Go For Broke is Matthews' attempt to gear his sound more toward the lines of pop and disco. While Matthews, at best, has never been wildly creative or brilliant, he sometimes attains a precision and peacefulness which can be Neil Diamond Beautiful Noise (Columbia) You may be wondering why I bothered to review this album;- indeed, after three listenings, I began to do the same thing myself. My original reasons v/ere two: first, it was the only thing that interested me out of all this week's promos. Second, Neil Diamond has not done any recording since 1974 (when the commercially successful Serenade was released), so I figured that the comeback of any major artist, even if after less than two years, deserved some pop or disco, and it isn't distinct enough to stick in the memory. Admittedly there are some attempts at rock 'n-roll the modern type, not what Diamond used to do. These meet with some success but they lack the force and well-controlled energy needed to be effective. The overall impression I get is that the title should really be Beautiful mildly hypnotic. — mention. On the inside envelope there is a quote, written by Diamond, which reads, in part: "This album is a series of recollections . . seen through the eyes of a young songwriter making his way through the streets of New York City's tin pan alley in the early 1960's." So that's it; old Neil has decided to go back to his roots. He's decided to start putting more effort into his music and create something that radiates energy, like "Cherie, Cherie" or even "Thank the Lord for the Nighttime," instead of the mellowed out stuff he's been . producing lately . Or so I thought, and once again I was wrong. Beautiful Noise offers little respite from the soft rock you hear on AM when they aren't playing heavy metal, country It's too bad Go For Broke is such a sickly offering. and Ian's weak transformation to pop and disco is sabotaged on several fronts. Probably the biggest stumbling block is Matthews' voice, which while pleasing enough just cannot sustain the dynamics involved hs{e to bring this caper off. His treatment of Van Morrison's “Brown Eyed Girl" is about as soulful as Julie Eisenhower hustling on Soul Train. “Groovin'" completely lacks the urban funky harmonies and joyous sweat that the Rascals brought to the tune. Matthews' voice doesn't have the flexibility and range required to do these songs justice. The tunes penned by Ian and friends sound like throwaway numbers from the Sonny and Cher Show. The melodies are hollow and the studio band plays with all the fervor of a fallen Catholic defending the Pope (now there is a fella who is infallible). Only on Tim MOore's anyway. Beautiful Noise is, after all, a Neil Diamond album, so he is the orte ultimately responsible for it. No amount of crack musicianship is going to mask his lyrical pretensions found in "Street of Jeff Beck, Wired (Epic) Jeff Beck made a major breakthrough a little over a year ago when he released the album Blow by Blow, an amazing departure from his prevalent rock-blues forte into purely instrumental realms of and even nine-eight Mahavishnu jazz,, soul guitar-gunning. Wired, the follow-up to Blow by Blow, is a logical progression along the same lines, and although it is as not as surprisingly original or melodically strong as its predecessor, it succeeds on a number of other levels. Beck is joined on this LP by two ex-members of the various Mahavishnu orchestras, and their influence is all too apparent. Narada Michael Walden, who had a tough time replacing Billy Cobham after McLaughlin's first purge, plays drums on half of Wired. Despite ah excellent grasp of jazz and dance rhythms, he does not quite fill the shoes of Blow by Blow's Richard Bailey, who appears here on only two cuts. However, Walden seems to be Beck's new protege, and half of the eight compositions on the album are his he even plays piano on the acoustic ''Love is Green," seemingly the best of his four. Keyboardist Jan Hammer, whose tasteful, musical use of synthesizer (with McLaughlin's original M.O.) has since been mimicked by every jazz-rocker worth his Moog, is at a loss for ideas on Wired. His unison riffs with Beck's guitar remind one of too many things heard before, and his solos all guitar-like flourishes, pitch-bent and echoplexed, are beginning to repeat themselves (so to speak). His aesthetic contribution to this album is almost nil (he plays surprisingly adept drums on "Blue Wind," his own composition), and he could have easily been replaced here by one of his many imitators. The bass playing of Wilbur Bascomb is slightly better than that of Phil Chenn (the bassist on Blow by Blow), and he displays excellent knowledge of the funky bottom, one of the basic trademarks of Beck's "new sound." The chief conspirator in the aforementioned funky bottom, however, is Max Middleton, Jeff's longtime keyboard man, who syncopates on clavinet and Fender Rhodes with the best of them. Middleton's composition "Led Boot (as the title may or may not imply) seems to be a parody of riff-rock, and is far inferior to his "Freeway Jam" on Blow by Blow. There is also nothing approaching that album's Beck-Middleton collaborations "You Know What I Mean" and West" does Matthews .connect with the material. The remainder of the songs should be' piped to that big muzak bingo hall in the sky. Go For Broke comes up with nothing more than a handful of dust. Matthews must come to terms with his musical limitations and recruit a band that will challenge his capabilities and until that time, Matthews deserves to dwell in he'll be doing obscurity. Whether aluminium siding work in Sussex may well rest on the outcome of his next disc. —Sebastian Flyte idea of what it was like I must be fair, though; there are three songs that actually, enjoy listening to. One of them'is the title tune a well produced, forceful effort rather reminiscent of Billy Joel. I also like "Sings" because it is restful and graceful without being lethargic. It gives the same effect as "Stones," one of Neil Diamond's better recent compositions. Finally, there is "If You Know What I Mean," which alternates •mediocre verses This choruses. very strong with incidentally, has been called as the first a perplexing choice, but one that single seems to be working out. A better selection, in my opinion, would have been "Don't Think . . because it is'more throwawy in tune with this I — Music. This album's defects certainly cannot be laid at the doorstep of the accompnaying musicians, for Diamond has amassed quite a backup band. As the cover loudly proclaims, Robbie Robertson of the Band acts as producer, as well as frequent electric guitarist and co-author of one of the songs. The drummers include Russ Kunkel and Jim Keltner; sometimes Joe Lala adds a little percussion. Keyboards are usually handled by Larry Knechtel, and Tom Scott does a nice tenor sax solo on one of the cuts. These are the most well-known musicians. The list could be made longer, but why bother? They have little bearing on the album's quality, poignant and bittersweet "A Fool Like You," and Ian's’own' "Rhythm of the - — . age. disguise the synthesized reggae sound of Feel," the ersatz "Don't Think Dixieland band style of "Stargazer" or the weak, gospel-ish choruses in "Surviving the Life."

Friday, 9 July 1976 "Scatterbrain" on Wired, and in fact, the head guitar honcho has given up writing altogether. It is Beck himself, nonetheless; who makes this album shine as it does. On Blow by Blow, the prevailing magic was in the themes, rhythms ahd production, and Jeff's solos seemed to be almost afterthoughts. Wired, lacking the chordal mystique of Stevie Wonder's "Since We've Ended as Lovers" or Bud Holland's "Diamond Dust" has Beck concentrating more on improvisation. His guitar is consistently amazing, and the occasional use of electronic effects adds to expressive content, rather than noise. The weeping beauty of "Since We've Ended As Lovers" is recaptured on Charlie Mingus' "Goodbye Pork Pie Hat" (quite possibly the album's best), and the octave-divided funk of "Thelonius" is outdone in several places, most notably Walden's "Come Dancing." Although it is not the masterpiece that last year's offering proved to be. Beck's newest holds its own, and will please his fans as well as many jazz purists. Less concentration on guest stars and more on composition (let's see some Vnore Beck-Middleton tunesf would have made this album great rather than just good. A careful cbmpromise between the best factors of Wired and Blow by Blow could make Beck's next (Fused?) a real shocker. —John Duncan Now listen close, because I don't want to repeat it: The Return of the Tall Blonde Man With One Black Shoe, starring Gerard Phillipe, originally scheduled as this weekend's (JUAB Film Committee feature in the Norton Conference Theatre, has been canceled.

And why will such a badly written hovel become one of the most popular books of does, a 1976? It seems to me that the answer lies in the fact that America now lives in a post-literary age. Books, rather than having any intrinsic value, have become adjuncts to events, and, more precisely, adjuncts to mass media events. Although a section of the population still reads literature, a growing number of people read in order to relive events first presented to them by newspapers, radio, movies and television. In fact, many readers will discover Miss Ray's book through its serialization in a famous weekly scandal sheet.

But the novel doesn't deserve more than these few lines. Read it, if you want, but not as literature; rather, as bicentennial schlock, or as a — phenomenon of the mid-1970's.

The real star of Poco's set was, of course, Rusty Young, whose pedal steel, banjo, mandolin and electric and acoustic guitars added unaccustomed depth to their arrangements. The material from their newest album, Cimmaron Rose, much of which featured luxurious combinations of mandolin. Young's electric Cotton's acoustic twelve-string, and Garth's fiddle, was a pleasant from Poco's usual respite redundancy. After a brief' intermission, the Stills Young Band hit the stage with a sloppy, strained versibn of "Love the One You're With" which, regrettably, set the tone for most of the evening's electric music. The band, consisting of Jerry Aiello on organ, Joe Lala on percussion, Malcolm Holmes on, bass, and Joe Vitale on drums and vocals, provided adequate backing Mostly but little versatility. members of Stills' latest backup tended to they band, over-Latinize the arrangements, and came nowhere near Poco in terms of instrumental elegance. More of the same Most of the material which featured the entire band was repetitive with weak harmonies, mundane arrangements, and too much volume detracting from what could have been decent versions of several Stills/Young classics. Songs such as "The Loner'A (the newer Stills-arranged version), "Black Queen" (electric, with a five-minute Stills guitar barrage), and Stills' "Buyin' Time" (a ripoff of the Isleys' "Work to Do") tended to sound like different takes of the same thing. Particularly messy versions of "Southern Man" and "Cowgirl in the Sand" (check the Four l/Vay Street LP) were rescued by moments of atypically fascinating guitar interplay by Stills and Young. These moments were rare. The most tolerable of the electric material came during the first set, with a slowed down "For What It's Worth," and excellent mellow versions of .Stills' "Open Young's Door” and the "Helpless." It may have been imagination, but it seemed to me that during the refrains of the singing latter someone was "Hel-ter skelter helter skelter . ..." Good old Young Young, Surprisingly, Neil whose recorded voice has been going down the tubes in recent years, was singing much better than Stills, and seemed to have the support of a greater protion of the crowd, as well as an rapport uncharacteristic with them. "That photographer who just walked up and told me to smile had better not come this way again" said Neil, although he was seen smiling a great deal perhaps gloating over the lack of to Stills. audience response Stephen's most animated moment came, during a break in the acoustic set when someone set off a particularly loud bomb, after being previously cautioned by Stills to "cool it with the fireworks or we're gonng split." Rather than get up to leave the stage upon hearing the explosion, Mr. S. merely intoned: "Whoever just did that is uncool," and followed with a thumbs-up, "A-a-a-ay!" Arthur Fonzarelli Real cool, Steve. — — Silence is golden set, The short acoustic sandwiched between the two tedious electric ones, was the only truly worthwhile part of the concert, featuring both solo and duet performances of some of the better songs from their incredibly productive past. Excellent versions of the Springfield's "On the Way Home" and Stills' “Change Partners" showed that two are stilt capable of harmonizing accurately maybe they just can't hear themselves over the electric instruments. the — Solo numbers included a faithful "After the Goldrush" (with Young doubling on piano and harmonica) during which the fans naturally applauded the line "I felt like getting high," and Stills doing a maudlin "Blackbird" '49 Bye-Byes." The former, which did no justice at all to McCartney's original, elicited cries of "We want Neil VoungV, who gracefully came back onstage for a strong "Heart of Gold,” one song that I never thought I would be glad to hear. The best effort of 1 the night was "Ohio" which, reincarnated as an acoustic duet, sounded better than any previous version. ' Too much of nothin' Stills and Young have always been at their best within a group cohesive format (Springfield, Crazy Horse, CSNY) and not when spotlighted as stars. The slapped-together Stills-Young Band served to detract from it's leaders' sound (as did CSNY's rhythm section) by making a "rock group" out of them excessive volume and the proliferation of lengthy guitar jams made this a forgettable show. When working together, these two men seem to shine only on their more subdued country and folk material, and this was the case at the Falls Sunday night. Let's hope that in the future (if they manage to stick together longer than a few months) they concentrate more on their singing-songwriting talents and less on being rock stars. —John Duncan Friday, 9 July 1976 .

In revoking the College’s charter, Ketter endorsed the minority report of the Colleges Chartering Review Committee (CCRC) which asked that the College be terminated, rather than the majority report, which recommended .conditional approval. Ketter announced his decision in a memorandum Tuesday, along with his conditional approval of Tolstoy College until July 1977. In the memo, Ketter said that besides considering the CCRC report he also sought and heeded the opinions of Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg and members of the “Academic Cabinet.” SSC Executive Committee member Howie Kling termed the decision undemocratic, stating that no one at the College was contacted and that there had been no talks or negotiations regarding future restrictions on the College. Kling felt there was a lack of communication between the College and the entire Chartering process. Kling said there would be attempts made to reverse the decision. A letter writting campaign is already underway. College meetings have been held to discuss strategy. Support gathering Kling indicated that the College was gathering support from community people and faculty. Several faculty associated with other Colleges have expressed support for Social Sciences. The Colleges Council voted 8 to 2 last week to support the College. A Buffalo community center has praised the College for providing services to West Side Youth enrolled here. Ketter’s memo indicated his basic rationale for revoking the College’s charter was a lack of “faculty participation” and “absence of academic and an administrative leadership.” The memo also questioned the qualifications of some instructors. In a letter dated May 26, Spitzberg told Ketter, “there is no doubt that of all the Colleges, SSC has the weakest set of instructors in terms of demonstrated qualifications.” Spitzberg’s letter also called for less teaching by graduate students, and full faculty involvement. Spitzberg went on to say that only two of the graduate students currently teaching met with his qualifications. Kling countered that over ninety percent of the grad student teachers are teaching courses well within their specialized fields of study, and that there are several instructors teaching courses in subjects directly related to their theses projects. A letter from the Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) charged that Spitzberg has ignored graduate student teaching throughout the University. Forty percent of all undergraduate teaching is done by graduate students, it said. GSEU claimed Spitzberg told an organization official that graduate students teach too much at the University and that most of them are incompetent and incapable of running a program like SSC. Kling said that Spitzberg has also been opposed to hiring instructors drawn from the community, citing the recent veterans course taught by Dan Amigone, who was a leader of the Vietnam Veterans Against the War and a veterans counselor at this University. Spitzberg canceled the course because he felt Coordinator of Veteran’s Affairs Clarence Dye’s evaluation of the course was incomplete. College members claimed Spitzberg was ignoring community work and experience in favor of traditional qualifications. Review process The chartering process, which Ketter mandate'dan January 1975, required review of tne charters of both Tolstoy and Social abolished, and that all the Colleges cease offering credit-bearing courses. Assurances Gangemi said that the Chartering Committee decided to continue only if it had assurances that its report would be given as much credence as the Planning Report. Kling charged that the Committee’s members were selected specifically for their bias against the College. After several votes, the majority report was approved by six votes, and the minority report by three. Graduate School Dean MacAlister Hull, a member of the Executive Cabinet, said that his “personal recommendation to the President was to support the minority Dr. Robert Ketter Sciences Colleges. The process, which commenced the day prior to release of the President’s Committee on Academic Planning, was finished by the end of the Spring 1976 semester. According to Marcia Gangemi, a student on the chartering committee, the report was supposed to have been made public after its release from committee, and sent to Ketter. The committee’s majority report proposes that the College be continued if there is a significant overturn in its leadership. The minority recommendation expressed doubt that this transformation is possible and that the College had already been given sufficient time to comply with the committee chartering previous recommendation which also called for new leadership, and that the College should therefore be abolished. According to Gangemi, the Chartering Committee almost decided to disband at the end of its first meeting in this series when Spitzberg announced the results of the Academic Committee Planning regarding the two Colleges in question. The Academic Planning Committee recommended that both Colleges be for the reasons which they expressed,” although he noted that he did not see continuation of the College as recommendation ... “unreasonable.” Acting Vice President for Academic Affairs Robert Kisk, another Cabinet member, said he endorsed Ketter’s decision because he was disturbed by the lack of faculty involvement in the College. When asked whether he thought the timing of the announcement had been planned for a period when College activity is low, Kling emphatically agreed, this is our weakest point of “Absolutely that won’t stop us.” the year, but Student Association (SA) President Steven Schwartz said that he was upset — both with the decision and the way it was reached. He added that SA was considering action but that first it would consult with College members. Ketter said in his memo that the strong with minority report, coupled overwhelming disapproval of the College from what he termed “responsible academic officers” whose comments he requested provided a strong argument for dissolving the College. When Kling was asked whether it would be possible to incorporate the program in another department,, he said that the faculty of SSC could probably not cooperate with such a move, and it was too early to answer the question. Howard Kling Kling also stated that he thought that the hiring of a Marxist professor to carry on the ideas of the College was a “pipe dream,” and suggested that Marxist scholars at this University were being fired rather than hired. He also said the adminsitration was looking for a purely academic, non-activist, “Ivy League” Marxist college. College Chief Administrative Officer William Stein, after being told of Ketter’s the decision, commented, “If administration of this University wants a transformation in the leadership of the College, at my age, 54, I am no caterpillar. I am not going to turn into a butterfly at this point,” Correction It was incorrectly reported in last Friday’s issue of The Spectrum that educational benefits to University of Buffalo veterans had been cut off. Actually, the Veteran’s Administration is studying the University’s application for “approved” status, and it is likely no decision will be reached for several months. Meanwhile, veteran’s are encouraged to seek available benefits. See story on page 3. �‘Tattle Tale System’ slows library thefts Besides having been hit hard by the cutbacks in the University ‘book.

Friday, 25 June 1976 — Muscular Dystrophy Research gains on disease the at State University (SUNY) at Buffalo have been able to delay the onset Researchers of muscular dystrophy in chickens that inherit the disease by injecting them with drugs now used to treat certain circulatory problems. Drs. Eric A. Barnard and Michael S- Hudecki said their findings will help determine development of the muscle deteriorating disease. Barnard, chairman of Department of Biochemistry, said the condition found in genetically dystrophic closely chickens resembles muscular dystrophy in man. He cautioned that further investigation of mechanisms of the disease as well as actions of the two drugs used in the project will be necessary before any potential benefits of these drugs could be considered for people having muscular dystrophy, Hudecki, who has the disease, is currently at this University on a fellowship from the Muscular Dystrophy Association of America which he received in 1972.' Circulation problem He explained that the onset Of the disease dystrophic genetically in usually chickens occurs about three to four weeks after hatching. “Normal chickens, when placed on their backs, flip onto their feet easily throughout their life,” he said. But dystrophic chickens lose this ability to ‘flip’ (a measure of muscle strength) during their first four weeks of life,” Hudecly said. the affected By injecting chickens with drugs which block serotonin, a chemical compound in the blood, the researchers dystrophic found that the chickens would continue to ‘flip’ easily, seven to eight weeks after dystrophy patients or carriers of the disease,” Barnard said. The in blood normal' chickens. He said the link between elevated serotonin and high levels of CPK and the role of either or both in muscular dystrophy has not been determined. “Since we now know that anti-serotonin drugs will decrease CPK as well as apparently delaying onset of the disease symptoms in the chicken, we may be closer to finding the cause and development of the disease,” . hatching.

The Vietnam Veterans Act of 1974 states that the VA will one full time supply adequate and representative clerical support for each 500 enrolled veterans. This would 5 require a minimum of representatives on this campus. Currently, there are two, and from time to time they are “pulled” from campus to work at the local VA office, another violation of the 1974 act. Besides the two officers, the Student Affairs office of the University employs a veterans affairs coordinator, but also calls to him perform other on functions within the division. He works in conjunction with the two representatives, whose office in 216 Hardman is rented by the • VA.. “The VA is trying to shift blame for its own lack of and efficient personnel management, which has resulted in overpayments, to institutions,” said Ed Serba, Veteran’s Outreach Officer. Serba explained that last year’s partly resulted overpayments from an increase in the number of eligible veterans claiming benefits, and the VA’s own errors. 80 to 90 percent of the overpayments were recovered, he said, simply by docking the appropriate amount from the veteran’s next paymnet.

A who beings a semester with 12 credit hours and drops four, for example, will often months, of three receive overpayment until the change is noticed. Joseph Krakowiak, Veterans Associate Coordinator, said the VA has an outmoded idea of education which does not include the liberal academic policies of certain institutions. He added that VA often overlooks the “human factors” in attempting to enforce educational standards for eligible veterans, a function usually left to the states, and carried out by the state veteran approving agencies. Serba maintained that because the approving agencies are funded with federal money and operate according to VA guidelines, the separation between the agency and the VA only “gives the appearance of independence.” veterans Meanwhile, all released from service before January, 1955, and June, 1956, lost their educational benefits May 3 1.

Schwartz cited the desire to return to teaching and research as part of his reason for resigning. The resignation was also a protest 6f the recent cutbacks to the School of Pharmacy. “Unless other sources of funds are found, it will have very severe effects on the school’s program,” Schwartz said. Schwartz claimed the cuts were irrational in light of the high rating of the Pharmacy School, and based upon a misunderstanding of the School’s financial status and misleading information which should not have been used.

Failure to communicate Although the cahirmen of several departments also tendered because of their resignations internal problems, they ary now being held in abeyance pending the with negotiations Administration, according to a source in the School. The chairmen were not available for comment; however, it has been learned that at least one of them also listed protests against the budget cuts as a cause. Other reasons given for the resignations included the lowered amount of space provided for Pharmacy at new Amherst campus and failure of administration outside the School of Pharmacy to communicate with the School. Apparently the tendering of the resignations has had a positive effect, according to the same source, because Vice President for Health Affairs F. Carter Pannill is now willing to iron out the School’s fiscal problems. One of the factors leading to the protest by faculty is the cutback in the number of square feet allocated to the School of the Cookein Pharmacy Hochstetter Towers where they will be housed. According to Albert Dahlberg, Assistant to the Vice President for Facilities Planning, the original promise to Pharmacy was nearly 80,000 of 150,000 approximately the available square feet in the building, which they will share with the biologies.

There’s a very close tie-in with the budget.” In a nationwide survey of professional schools conducted a year ago, the School of Pharmacy was the only unit at SUNY at Buffalo and one of only three in the entire SUNY system, to be rated near the top of its profession.

Ketter's revocation of the College's charter Tuesday, in the atmosphere of the budget crisis, officially punishes the Social Sciences College for failing to comply with an academic standard imposed by the faculty-dominated review process. Here the purposes of conservative faculty coincide with the purposes of conservative administrators. The new Colleges constitution passed by the Faculty Senate in 1973 required “substantial faculty involvement" as a prerequisite for having charters renewed. The Chartering Review Committee reported that Social Sciences College failed on this count. We are not so sure. 'Substantial' is a fairly arbitrary term. Less controversial Colleges find it easy tb attract faculty, and have fewer reservations about the review process. But Social Sciences has resisted the chartering and review process, on principle, from the beginning. Part of the problem is the imposition of an academic standard which is antithetical to the original conception of the Colleges. The new constitution was bitterly opposed by many Collegians at the time it was passed. This brings us to the problem of instructor qualifications. The courses and instructors in the College have been previously approved by the Division of Undergraduate Education. Many of the instructors are graduate students, with varying academic backgrounds. Many have specialized experiences outside academics, and teach classes well within their qualification. The poverty of faculty review is its bias against non-traditional education, and, therefore, its bias against the idea of the Colleges as an alternative to traditionally qualified faculty. This bias is inherent in academic “legitimization," the ostensible motive for chartering. The attempts to infuse Social Sciences College with traditionally qualified faculty could do nothing.but fail. Social Sciences College is living, activated political economy and Marxism, and is not at all theoretical in the sense that is wishes to prove or simply consider Marxist hypotheses. These hypotheses are assumed to be true, and so a Social Sciences College lesson may be devoted to ways of acting on these hypotheses in real life. This is at the heart of Social Sciences College, and is behind the antagonism between the College and conservative elements on campus. In the end, an explanation of the College's termination must overlook the pretense an appointed committee makes to academic objectivity, and return to a political economist's view; that is, that th,e University, as an agency of the State is presided over by Trustees drawn from the wealthy capitalist and industrial classes. President Ketter is their designee. His action will disenfranchise a large part of the active political left at this University.

The recent report of the review committee for Social Sciences College, and attendant memorandum issued by Irving Spitzberg, Dean of the Colleges, present a clear attack on graduate student teaching at this university. The major thrust of criticism expressed in Spitzberg’s memo and the committee report is directed towards the composition of leadership and staff of the College. At present the coordinators of the College are two graduate students, an undergraduate, and a faculty “chief administrative officer.” The staff is comprised of a majority of graduate students, with a significant proportion of community people. Underlying all the remarks regarding the College is a profound objection to the extensive participation of graduate students. Spitzberg himself proposes as a condition for reconstitution a “reduction in graduate student dominance of the College’s life.” He questions the qualifications of the College staff, calling for the “elimination of all old courses and instructors,” and maintains that only two instructors were able to meet his requirements in letter and spirit. It is important to note that he is questioning the teaching credentials of a large number of graduate employees. Most graduate employees are teaching courses in the College directly related to their own field of study in their respective departments. Why then this new zeal in dealing with people normally deemed qualified to teach at this university? The Dean and the Committee, who seem determined to apply the general standards of the university to a College dedicated to alternative education have mysteriously ignored the presence of graduate teaching in the larger university structure. In fact, 40 percent of all undergraduate teaching is done by graduate students. Certainly, Spitzberg is well aware of the population of graduate staff at U.B. Either he is disregarding the facts or he finds them incompatible with his own interests and educational philosophy. Spitzberg’s attitudes toward education and the university become clear in light of his remarks to a GSEU official. He stated that graduate students teach too much at the university and maintained' that most of them are incompetent teachers, He further noted that graduate students are clearly incapable of running a program like the College, Such remarks invite speculation on a larger issue. The present attack on Social Sciences College is not .simply an isolated assault on a few radical instructors, but is part of a more general and malicious threat against graduate student employees. Such an attack appears to be part of a general university trend to question the suitability of graduate students for teaching responsibilities. The GSEU recognizes the plight of Social Sciences reflects in part, the deteriorating position of graduate students at this university. The GSEU supports the endeavors to maintain Social Sciences College as part of a larger struggle to improve the status and working conditions of graduate employees at SUNYAB.

Much of their dialogue sounds like ersatz commentary the average family gives its home movies: lines like "Here you are again, Fred" are not only unnecessary, they're downright insulting to both our* intelligence and his.

I calmness Charlie Byrd transmits a genuine calmness that tears you from the steely, manufactured city to an unkown El Dorado set amidst tranquil fields of sound. This is accomplished through an aural orientation that lines the senses with a seemingly impossible actuality. Many times I find it difficult to believe something I can't see. I was not more than fifteen feet away from Byrd, but I very often could not see his fingers pluck his guitar's strings. I could hear the concerto-like singing in the melodic grace of Byrd's interpretation, and that was enough to make me hold creed in his ability. During a tune called "One Note Song," Byrd's creative expression \vith a lilting Spanish guitar seemed to enamour the accepted version of the number with a jovial spirit of jazz. I thought a problem with Byrd's style might be in his meticulous, almost nit-picking artistry. In this age of unstudied and unlearned rock music production, it seems the rule's exception to discover an artist even in the jazz mode. If this seemed to create an using sheet music uneasiness on my part, the halting of the show when an FM radio image stowed its ghostly self amidst the speakers seemed just a bit too much for me. After all, the show must go on, since you destroy audience mood when the act stops, right? Genuine — I Plays Beatle tune Byrd really begins to cook with his rendition of the Beatles' "Hey Jude." His fingers move with ease up and down the neck of his guitar. The notes wind and twist through the air to grab at the crowd at the back of the club. It is a large crowd some of the standing-room-only crowd at the Statler can't see Byrd but still they appreciate the sound as witnessed by long, wild appaluse subsequent to each number. After this, you somehow wish that Byrd wasn't caged in the night-club scene but was free in the middle of a field where all who cared to listen could come and go as they pleased while Byrd would allude to nature and idyllic life through his guitar. He has much independence at present although this scene's simile'seems a very graphic setting for Byrd's artistry. The Charlie Byrd Trio is composed of the drums of Wayne Phillips and Byrd's brother Joe on bass. The two don't supplement Byrd's acoustic sound, but complement it. As well as Charlie plays guitar, Joe plays both electric and stand-up bass. This is especially prominent on the original Byrd composition, "Blues for Night People," as the bass soars and throbs with riffs fit for the label of perfection. Whether they be soft or pounding, Wayne Phillip's drums capture the enraptured freedom that is so often found in the notes of Byrd's guitar. Charlie Byrd has built himself a nest of welcome reception that —Harold Goldberg will be his always when he travels to Buffalo. — a fact thfat was never mentioned in the dialogue credits. This doctoring on the sly was a disservice to both Mr. Mifune and Mr. Frees, as well as the audience What Midway most closely compares to is a rather profane rewrite of a DC war comic, with all of the attendant depth. Sensurround contributes a lot of deafening sound, the bombastic production a lot of fury all signifying absolutely nothing. Midway's title is too generous; it only goes about a quarter of the way towards being worth seeing. Midway is playing at the Holiday and Boulevard Mall Theatres. Page six The Spectrum Friday, 25 June 1976 . A relatively short-lived time ago, I lived on a farm in West Virginia; recalling those days is a magic cloaked in a child's fantasy world, as I was only two' years of age. Nevertheless, I remember playing alone in pastoral grassy fields with the muddy Shenendoah River meandering slowly by, its smell lingering because of the humid summer heat in that area. Amidst that scene, I caught my first monarch butterfly, put it in a jar with holes poked in for air and dropped in a fistful of clover arid thistles to simulate the butterfly's meadow environment. The butterfly almost died and I had to free it. What the hell does that story have to do with a jazz review? It bears a great deal of significance to my critique of Charlie Byrd, the fine jazz and classical guitarist who is in the midst of a two-week series of gigs at the Statler Hilton's Downtown Room. I'm usually a semi-stalwart and unendingly persevering character in attempt to review. trying to obtain an interview with the people an artist adds form to an Usually, any form of conversation with subjective or talk adds usually, the article's interpretation. And metaphor in leads to to writer's mind which a obective information print. But I couldn't talk to Charlie Byrd. He quite probably would have been willing, but I wouldn't hav/e< been as any conversation would have killed the matric of a mood that rapidly formed as the evening progressed. Simple rock I don't know exactly why this bothers me so. Perhaps the feeling emerges from the rock world I'm immersed in, along with its relatively simple melodies and its uncomplicated, easy-going style. Or maybe the feeling has its roots in the route music takes in approaching the ear. Music should come from the human physical form; when even a guitar is employed to interpret music, a wall is built through employing a mechanical object to yield sound. At least this somewhat palpable phenomenon comes with the end product t)f music; but when the audience sees the beginning of the music process hampered by the extra thought process needed to read sheet music, and then has those thoughts deceived by another wall in the form of a radio image; the crystal clear, immaculate music form seems forced. All this brings us back to Byrd and the illusive butterfly analogy. could have asked the guitarist about the sheet music, but bringing up the point would further wall the music process. Soon my fears for Charlie Byrd's music disappeared. With a voice flickering with humor, Byrd spoke early enough to dismiss the bothersome radid image by saying, "You've got two for the price of one." As for the sheet music, its annoying quality passed from existence as Byrd began to play a better guitar than anyone I've ever heard. ci Monumental Henry Fonda in command of the Amei forces, contributes a good deal of posing for M Rushmore, while subordinate Heston seems to sustained a hernia from dragging his Ben Hur persona abogt. Perhaps he's simply showing his strain at the subplot involving his Ken-doll son (Edward Albert), who's the enamored of a Japanese girl, a gambit I thought "Love Is A Many-Splendored Thing" had killed ages ago. In total Glenn Ford, Cliff Robertson, James Coburn Robert Mitchum, and Robert Wagner are on screen for perhaps five minutes. Even more unforgivable is the treatment afforded Toshiro Mifune, the greatest actor in Japanese cinema; only very careful watching revealed that his performance seemed so ponderous mostly because narrator and cartoon-voice Paul Frees had dubbed in Mifune's Charlie Byrd Trio a calmness in jazz — — Prodigal Sun �I Our Weekly Reader Friendly Fire, C.D.B.

What is all accessible dozen American poetry dealing with Vietnam can be read easily in a weekend or two.

Fiction aside, there is a mass of expository writing about the Vietnam war available, some of it quite good. There are volumes of reportage (including that of John Steinbeck, .Mary McCarthy, Susan Sontag, William Eastlake and other literary war tourists), political and military memoirs, commentaries, popular histories, and there are even memorable examples of standard war copy (by Eric Pace, Peter Arnett, and others). In fact, Vietnam might not be remembered for the fiction it occasioned, but instead it might represent, as David Halberstam once told me, a renaissance of expository prose. subtitled ■"a work of Enter Friendly Fire, non-fiction," by literary critic and novelist C.D.B. Bryan. It is the latest addition to the Vietnam shelf and the first attempt I know of to report the war's effect on ordinary people at home. If the Vietnam war, as Leslie Fiedler once put it, was fought exclusively by our servants, it has so far been written about by our gentlemen and ladies with the exception of a few soldier-novelists for the purpose of extolling the special nobility created by any war, the nobility of brave men. Friendly Fire, on the other hand, is an attempt to examine the private and ordinary grief felt by one set of parents whose son died an inglorious accidental death in Vietnam, killed by "friendly fire," that is, killed by allied forces. (There is another way the military puts this, which perhaps better illustrates my point: such a death is a — — — — "misadventure.") even The basic premise of the book is worthy compelling: it is time to glimpse into an ordinary American household, preferably in the representatively conservative midwest, and examine in the fullest possible way one son's death in Vietnam and its effect on his family. There is in this idea the possibility for a great, even momentous, story; one well told tragedy, after all, can be a type for all tragedies; one death in Vietnam, related fully enough, can make a reader feel t+ie weight of all. Two factors unfortunately prevent C.D.B. Bryan from ever turning the instrument of this idea to good use: first, he is a cool, facile, and utterly unauthentic writer, whose swirls of colorful adjectives and dexterous adverbs conceal a mere breeze of real talent; and second, Bryan is, was, and always will be an alien in the midwest, except for those parts of it controlled by the Iowa Writer's Workshop. When Truman Capote hummed into Kansas in his silver Jaguar XKE to write a book about a bizzare murder, he was able to make himself temporarily less interesting than the story at hand; Bryan can't. objects of this promising failure of a The subjects book are Peg and Gene Mullen of La Porte City, Iowa, whose 25-year-old son Michael was killed by friendly artillery fire in Vietnam. Solid and well-liked members of this farming community, the Mullens exhibited the standard thoughtlessness about American involvement in Indochina before their son died there. After his body was flown home, the Mullens began collecting documents and gathering testimonies to find out exactly how Michael died. In the beginning these gestures for information were a solace for the Mullens; but before long, after being insulted and frustrated by the military bureaucracy, these gestures took on the lineaments of anger, desperation, even rage. The Mullens put an ad in the Des Moines Register two months after their son's death. It was simply one for each of composed: a brief text and 715 crosses including to Michael. Vietnam, the lowans die in Understandably, the oddity of this ad in the heart of middle America created something of a stir, but it was not until six months later that Bryan heard of it, and six months more before he decided to do a magazine piece. Once in Iowa, Bryan realized two things:.there was a bigger story here than he thought; and here was a chance to use everything he had previously learned and taught at the Writer's Workshop. Many of the scenes in the book involving the. Mullens naturally took place well before he was present; therefore it was necessary for him to imaginatively reconstruct these events. He does this with a singular flair for artifice, giving much of Friendly Fire the fervid air of a first novel. For instance, he imagines these Iowa neighbors at Michael's funeral: The men wearing faded bjb overalls, ankle-high workboots, dayglo orange earflapped vinyl caps, their mellow, weathered faces creased with sorrow, approached Gene shyly, hesitantly. Gently they touched him on the shoulder, laid their calloused hands almost tenderly across his back. Their wives, in woolen slacks and heavy hand-knit cardigans, brought baskets of food . . . Art early chapter relates the history of the Mullens in Iowa (five generations) in order to deepen the effect and significance of Michael's death. Aside from doing this, of course, such a chapter is the perfect opportunity for a trained writer to exercise his command of the sentimental and pastoral literary conventions which have plagued the West since it was invented by the east: In the fall the winds would come and coo / the cornstalks. The months of jarring and preserving, of grinding flour and tanning hides would be upon them. John Dobshire, out gathering wood along the banks of the Cedar River, would look up at'the great skeins of duck and geese, watch them form their August Vs and beat their way south. The corn would be harvested, the wheat gathered and threshed. The grouse would call, - the incredible swarms of passenger pigeons (whose numbers then could be measured only by square miles) would whir! and scatter like an old lady's handwriting, gather again, then flash away. The buffalo would pass, fewer and fewer with each succeeding year. The first snow would fall, and at night, looking out their cabin window, the Dobshires might see the lantern of a far-off wagon glowing as brightly as a distant boat across a glaze of frozen water, like some ephemera voyager upon a tideless sea. But such innocent displays of selfishness and disproportion are riot the real problem with Friendly Fire. I can, sit through such ardent displays of useless talent as well as anyone can. No, the real problem with this book is finally not literary at all. It is moral. Friendly Fire, after all, starts out very clearly as an attempt to vindicate the loss the Mullens felt, to show how the Vietnam war was a patchwork of accidents and useless death, and (perhaps) to make the Mullens articulate when they were not, in an effort to get at the final mystery of their son's death.

The movie stars two fantastic actors, Marilyn Hassett and Beau Bridges. Aside from the fact that the basic story is true, both these actors, playing Jill Kinmont and boyfriend Dick Buek respectively, bring the characters to a magnificent reality. Basically, the story concerns Jill Kinmont, a great skier who would have made it to the 1956 Olympics if her luck hadn't run out when she almost died in a skiing accident. Marilyn Hassett is as good on the slopes as in the wheelchair. The movie is really touching, both as a love story and as a portrayal of a quadraplegic trying to get back to “normalcy." The movie is set up as a flashback but the fact that the audience knows what to expect only heightens the excitement at the moment of the accident. The entire audience sat at the edge of its seats, anxiously awaiting this scene — Stunning slopes The scenery is stunning, from the initial view of snow-capped mountains and a lush green valley below. The precipitousness of the ski slopes would make any non-skier swear never to try it; yet the skiers in the movie manage the curves and obstacles smoothly and gracefully. Unlike Love Story, in which "love is never having to say you're sorry," The Other Side of the Mountain is realistic, enjoyable, and bearable for those boyfriends who are cajoled by their girlfriends into seeing it. Nor is it like a soap-opera, in which melodrama sickens the very souls of sensible watchers; it is a true story, maybe slightly exaggerated for effect, of a young woman who has an unbelievable run of bad luck which extends to those who are close to her. The movie's main emphasis, however, is not on luck (good or bad) and how it affects a certain life, but on how Jill Kinmount surpassed her handicap and suffering, and made herself into something in spite of her useless body. It is a success story on a human, rather than a super human, scale. It is filled with touching scenes that anybody with sensitivity and feelings can relate to; even non-skiers can comprehend Jill's love of the sport and her determination, while in the hospital, to walk again. I highly recommend this movie just don't forget the Kleenex when you go.

Titled "The Making and Understanding of Film and Media," the series of events will include a wide variety of conferences, fourteen credit-bearing courses, fourteen public lectures, the screening of five different programs of American film classics, a six-week Film/Media Workshop, and (possibly the essence of the whole program) a "Visiting Mediamakers and Theorists" series. "This summer's program will have a creative emphasis, and is planned to satisfy several needs," according to Dr. Gerald O'Grady, director of both the Media Center and Media Study/Buffalo. With over 100 visiting lecturers invited, the Center hopes to involve creative artists in the teaching process. This could be seen as a breeding ground for new professors, since the Center for Media Study hopes to screen a wide variety of independent and "personal" filmmakers to teach courses that may be available in the fall. By bringing fine media arts to Buffalo, Dr. O'Grady hopes to get students, visiting students,, and the public involved in.this summer's program. He would also like to Zodiaque performers outdo everyone else stress that "it's all free," with respect to University activities. Uniqueness pays The program is supported by a grant from the Exxon Corporation and a $15,000 endowment from the Public country supported by the National Endowment for the Arts. This should be the largest series of its kind, and will be offered as an enhancement to courses available through the Center for Media Study. 'The Summer Institute" was designed for "the purpose of improving standards of film 'and media study in schools and colleges and at institutions engaged in regional media development." (This and other unattributed quotes are taken from the Center's Summer Institute brochure.) By the scheduling of over 250 films, Dr. O'Grady hopes "to reach as many people as possible on and off campus." The films will revolve around five different themes to honor American film. The first, June 4-26, was a series of eight Fred Astaire—Ginger Rogers movies celebrating the best thirties musicals. These films were screened in 35mm gauge at the Shea's Buffalo Theater on Friday and Saturday nights. The second series, entitled "In Glorious —continued on The usher seated us in the front row of the balcony, and from pur location I was able to see that Artpark was completely filled. Understandable enough, residents of the Buffalo-Niagara Falls must have been thrilled to see three local dance companies performing in such a huge theater for the first time. The evening's printed program began with a question: "What kind of evening might happen if we not only provided a variety of ballet and modern dance b side by side with them as well?" jestion for three young companies to take That's a pi ir. Interweaving disciplines seems to be a upon themselves only in the past few years have we seen the likes of brand new genre "modern ballet" and "modern jazz.” The intention is fine and, at best, can be highly innovative. However, this mixing of the disciplines does not work when there is an inbalance of talent among the companies, which was precisely the problem of Gbnce and Friends, which was performed on Saturday. The concert featured the Zodiaque Company, sponsored by SUNY at Buffalo, Ginger Burke's RA Ballet and Am-Dance in Concert. Unfortunately, the time allotted each company was in no way proportional to the amount of talent displayed. The evening dragged on and on, as Am-Dance strutted their stuff, not exactly too eye-pleasingly. Am-Dance has the distinction of being the first tap and jazz company to be founded in the United States since 1952. Hopefully, it will not be the last, for if the company is the sole survivor of those dance forms, neither jazz nor tap will be remembered too page 10— Steve Stills and Neil Young are back together, and will be appearing at the Niagara Falls Convention Center on none other than the 4th of July, Niagara '1 Frontier's Bison-tennial.

Am-Dance performs like a high school marching band a little bit too cute, a little too brass, and way too rigid. The precision of each movement, and exactness of the costumes left little room for the imagination. With absolutely no shame, it blasphemed the music of Gershwin, as it imitated dance of the twenties. Of course, it is no sin to skim the past, but if there is no form of interpretation, the act becomes a severe form of regression, if not outright theft. The company performed six dances to the music of Gershwin at the beginning of the concert (if you closed your eyes, the music was really enjoyable), rested while Zodiaque and the RA Ballet really danced, and then ended the concert with a banged-up guided tour of this century, as they danced to The Charleston, Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy, Rock Around the Clock and Space Odyssey in one medley. Not only did they destroy our past and present, but they also severely jeopardized our future as they sashayed to the Lord'd Prayer. But enough of that. The RA Ballet danced for such a short time that it would be unfair for me to review them. Sometimes they seemed very good, other times not.

Each time I watch this company perform, I am astounded by its rate of growth. The company has developed its very own repetoire to perfection. Janice Birnbaum's Untitled III dance to the music of Stanley Clarke, was perfectly synchronized and dazzling to watch. Unlike Am-Dance, each movement was certainly Birnbaum's own. Linda Swiniuch and Jan Fischer seemed to fly in Dance, reveling in space never allowed to them in Harriman Theater. Surely, the part of the dance in which Fischer shimmied, strutted, kicked and floated answered the program's question in a defiant yes, more so than any other aspect of the evening. Certainly the disciplines can enhance one another.

Page nine . �There is nothing like a Grateful Dead concert by Dimitri Papadopoulos Spectrum Arts Staff Saturday, June 19, was the last, of the three concerts given by the Grateful Dead at the Capitol Theatre. It was also the ninth concert of their first East Coast tour since August 1974. However, the word by the morning of the show was that performances were getting repetitious, and people were insinuating that the Dead them would peek out from backstage. This had a dramatic effect, as each glimpse pf the band members caused an intense buildup in the audience's desire for the music to begin. onp of New music sets the course "Help On the Way" began the set. This by "Slipknot," and followed was which flowed nicely, "Franklins Tower," yet another song developing into finally which showed off some classy Spanish guitar licks by both Jerry and Bob Weir. The set ended with a long, spacey "Playing accented by the the Band," in frequencies of Phil body-vibrating low (ala Seastones).

I had sweated out the wait for tickets, which could only be gotten through Dead Heads (their fan club). I had done the customary truckin' one goes through to follow the Dead. I went 450 miles from Buffalo to Boston to catch one of their opening shows, then traveled down to New York City, where I attended the Beacon shows. At one point I even had my car burglarized by Passaic locals, who were taking advantage of the unprotected concertgoers. Last but not least, I had even thought I'd seen the Dead pull off every surprise they were capable of. After seeing them perform "St. Stephen," "Dancing in thfe Streets," "Cosmic Charlie," "High Time," "The Wheel" and "Cold, Rain and Snow" in 1976, what more could one ask for? To say the least, I do not want to sound dissatisfied with the tour, but when I woke on Saturday, the only thing on my mind was returning to Buffalo, and fast! I was really eager to get back home and recuperate. The thought of an American Airlines 727 luxury liner soaring at an altitude of 30,000 feet was very soothing. It was the memory of that last nitrous tailspin that made up my mind. But as circumstances would have it, I never made my reservation, and at 6 p.m. found myself behind the wheel of my family's Vega, speeding down the L.I.E. headed for row O, orchestra. New Jersey.

This collection of eight films will provide the viewer with "a rare opportunity to see Academy Award-winning cinematography (Shanghai Express), one of the all-time cult Westerns (Winchester .73), and what many critics call the greatest opening shot in film history (in Touch of Evil), in the full clarity of their original format."

And no one had any reason to; the small percussion wars. It was evident that set was filled with many treats. There was a "Cosmic Charlie," a fast "Promised Land" the band was getting serious. The entire first set was an excellent one, and a medley of the band's new disco highlighted by "Cassidy," a rousing version Of "Dancing In The Streets" with "Tennessee Jed," and "Crazy Fingers," the Chuck Berry tune "Around and Around." And the joint was jumping! A split-second after the note that ended the song, Garcia launched injo a fiery "Going Down The Road Feeling Bad." At this point the energy level of the band was at a climax from which their music was to continue down to the final notes of the night. I'd like to think that this outburst was the band's way of saying thanks to the New York chapter of Dead Heads for all their financial and spiritual support. These people would be appreciated by any band in the world. As Donna sat down for air, the Dead said goodbye with a long and jumping "One More Saturday Night," and indeed it was. As the last crescendo came to a halt, I confessed to myself I was glad I had the luck not to sell my ticket as I had originally planned. I thought the last set had been one of the most encouraging I had seen on the tour so far. And so must have everyone else, because the applause did not cease. I was pessimistic about an encore due to the high quality of the previous music, and as the bright hall lights went on, I thought my suspicions were confirmed. I shot through the crowd hoping to avoid the pushing, and kept wondering as I was leaving how long the rest of the people would stay, until they realized like in the song, "the band was packed and gone." And the music played the band Much to my surprise, as I reached humid Monroe Street, there was a roar from within the hall. The Dead freaks’ dedication and persistence had been rewarded. Some of the security men weren't letting people back in, but my friend and I were lucky enough to find an unguarded gate. As the drummers started to pound out the beat to "Not Fade Away," I had just finished twisting through a batch of bodies in the center aisle around the tenth row. The song lasted fifteen minutes, and they couldn't have chosen a better one to play. On the way to my car I could only think of three things; that it was good to know that when they wanted to, the Dead could still play quite well together, that it was worth every second of my time to have come that night,-and that there is truly nothing tike a GratefulDead concert. —continued from page 9— ... the Allentown Community Center starting July 9, with the Marx Brothers in Room Service and ending August 13 with the Howard Hawks classic Twentieth Century.

California Governor Jerry Brown said that he’d always wanted to camp out on the White House lawn, and that since Vice don’t Presidents do much anyhow, he’d have more time to meditate. But Carter rejected Brown because he felt that a Carter-Brown ticket would imply mystery in givernment. Senator Frank Church wrote that his fairly liberal tendencies Carter’s complement would conservatism, giving the ticket broader appeal. But Carter felt that he’s be best off Separating Church and state. Morris Udall said that there wefe some big environmental projects he w.ould like to “sink his teeth into” and that as Vice President, he could really do something toward that end. Carter did not like Uriah's choice of words. Through it all, of course, Carter made no substantial statements about who he would finally nominate, and the speculation continued right on through to the Democratic National Convention in New York just as he planned. Carter was nominated at Madison Square Garden amidst plenty of hoopla, and then it was time for the fateful announcement. “Unfortunately,” Carter began, “my top choice for the position of Vice President is not available.” At that moment Carter lifted his skyward, reverently. head “However there is a man here oh earth who is second only to the Lord himself,” he continued. “I know that he will spread my word across the country, and with his more 1 see a, better, help, prosperous America. He is dedicated, well known and well liked, and although he is an outsider just as I am, I know that together we can win the November election, and start rebuilding America. Therefore, I nominate for the office of Vice President of the United States, Billy Graham.” Stunned for a mement, the crowd was hushed until it became clear that Carter’s move was a stroke of genius. With the crucial vote now well in hand. Carter and Graham eased into the White House where President Carter’s first official act was to boost peanut subsidies 50 percent. As for Vice President Graham, his first order was to banish ,the Reverend Sun Myung Moon from the United States, because, after all, who needs competition?

The letter requested that utmost secrecy be maintained, and accordingly, it was not signed the Georgian personally. by Instead, a reprint of two lips and 32 huge teeth in the shape of a grin was affixed to each letter. When Carter told Rosalynn what he’d done, she turned a pale shade of green and yelled, “That’s no way to run a dad-blamed Jimmy. What in campaign, tarnation do you think yer doin’?” “It’s obvious,” replied Carter, coyly. He explained that it doesn’t matter who runs for Vice President, but that good publicity is always beneficial. By asking for secrecy, Carter knew that the story would leak in three days, gave no and as long as indication as to who his choice would actually be, the speculation by the press would be unending. He explained - further that each candidate’s ability to handle the Speculation by reporters would be an excellent test of his mettle for the campaign ahead.

The covers are torn off the books and returned to' the for credit. The publisher percentage of books destroyed each semester is small compared to the number in stock, Bookstore officials said. But they could not provide an exact figure. The practice of stripping books and returning only the covers to the publishers for credit is common, especially among widely sold popular books. However, the the policy destroying of remainder of the books, which are mostly in excellent condition, is unusual, according to spokesmen from area bookstores. Thelma Streesack, book buyer, said the policy is carried out on publishers’ orders. She did not policy know this where originated, however, and could not cite any source where publishers state explicitly that the Friday, 18 June 1976 State University of New York at Buffalo Vol. 27, No. 3 books may not be donated or given away instead of destroyed. Once stripped from the books, the covers are mailed back to the publishing company. Due to high costs in reprocessing returned books, some companies prefer to receive only the front covers or, in the' case of' 1 newspapers or journals, the title page. This is practiced primarily with popular pocket books, which one „ publishing company employee referred to as “the bread and butter of the industry.” This generally includes “the pulp,” poorer quality books, as opposed to more expensive and larger “trade” paperbacks. Bookstore Manager Thomas Moore said bookstore officials sign a notice certifying that the cover has been cut off and the book destroyed in keeping with a policy by “dictated the publisher.” This is the common practice, he said. Some hardcovers are stripped too, Moore added. However, representatives from five major New York paperback book publishers contacted by The Spectrum said their only concern is that these stripped books do not end up for sale. A spokesman from Avon Publishing Company cited specifically by Moore as among those requiring a signed statement that the books have been destroyed, declared in an interview that no such certification of destruction is required. Similarly, an official at New Library, American another by company Moore, cited explained that “once a front cover has been stripped and sent in for credit, a manager or store owner has several alternatives. He can destroy the books, or he can donate them. Often they will be given to prisons, hospitals or charitable organizations. Our only stipulation is that they may not be sold.” Although these alternatives Library New Anierican exist. issues a “directive” requesting that books be destroyed. This is a contract or binding not agreement, just a policy that serves to “close out the area of abuse” (namely, resale). It is a discretionary matter, the New American spokesman' indicated, entirely up to the owner or manager of the bookstore. An informal survey of eight area bookstores by The Spectrum found most of the surveyed stores preferred other procedures while which are ordered are then shipped to the bookstore with freight costs prepaid by the publishing company. Books which are not sold in more than three some felt destroying books was an months are then stripped of their unnecessary waste. The manager covers and shipped back to the of the Buffalo State College publishers at the expense of the bookstore said she had never seen bookstore. The prohibitive costs written of unpacking, cataloguing and requirement a of certification that stripped books storing, or redistribution brought be destroyed, although resale of about the practice of “stripping,” more was the books would be illegal since which reportedly common before the recent paper the store is receiving full credit.

Sub Board officials are now attempting to comply with the Medical School’s request so that the money for the supervisor can be reinstated in September. Howeer, members of the Board feel confident that the Clinic will remain open this summer, with examination sessions held once a week. Because summer business is at least 50 percent lighter than that of the normal academic year, Sub Board members claim that the Clinic will operate successfully in the next few months without the aid and direction of a supervisor. Yet, thesfe same members feel that a supervisor is essential to oversee the busier operations this fall. No program submitted The Medical School, which has supported the supervisor for the past two years, discontinued the position when it did not receive the academic justification it sought. In the past, academic justification has meant medical students would be present in the examination rooms during gynecological check-ups and involved in the consultation and classes. Donald Larson, Associate Vice President for Health Sciences, said that he spoke with Sub Board Health Care Division Director Al Campagna about the need for some type of academic justification, but apparently they weren’t able to come up with any program. “The Medical School can’t spend its money unless there are actual academic programs,” Larson said. This year’s supervisor, Pam Criscione, quit her position in May when she learned that she would not receive her $2000 summer salary. She was the only member of the Clinic to receive a full weekly salary, as opposed to its director who receives a semesterly stipend and its volunteers. Her responsibilities included; maintaining inventory supplies, insuring payment of the doctors at the Clinic, scheduling the volunteers and professionals, selecting educational materials for patients, and ensuring that lab materials are quickly processed. Indisputable necessity Larson claimed there are two elements to consider in a situation like this. First, he said the money could come from within the University, if the program was academically justified. Second, money is appropriated from New York State for Student Health Services. The Health Care Division Director provides a budget of this money to the various health centers, whereupon a University Advisory Committee, of which Larson is a member, makes recommendations about the budget. When asked whether he felt the Committee would suggest paying the supervisor’s salary with the state money, he said that there had been no appeal for the money thus far, and it “would be wrong for the Advisory Committee to jump in.” Although Crisciohe asserted that a supervisor was an “indisputable necessity,” she also said, “1 can understand their [the Medical School’s] position in view of their acute financial situation.” ‘The Medical School isn’t to blame in this thing,”.she siad. “It’s hard to justify the firing of a professor, while it still supports a supervisor at the Clinic.” Justification is detrimental According to Criscione, the Clinic never had any academic justification, although Larson insists that there was. Because medical students work in hospitals throughout Buffalo, Criscione feels the students would receive no extra benefits through observation. In addition, this justification would be detrimental to the Clinic, she said, because patients might feel uncomfortable under observation, and the Clinic could not afford to teach medical students because it would slow up itsoperatidns. The only reason she said she resigned her position was because she could not afford to work without a salary. “I’m very regretful about this whole thing,” she commented, adding that she hoped University women would not let the, Clinic collapse. Both Health Care Division Business Manager Barbara Pientka and Sub Board Chairman Jon Roller were optimistic that the supervisor’s salary would once again be picked up by the Medical School in the fall. Will remain open Pientka said that since Sub Board is in poor financial shape, and a Clinic supervisor is crucial to the operation (there are usually three or four clinics a week during the regular school year), some concessions would have to be made to justify the academic value of the Clinic. The supervisor would most likely have to teach classes, perhaps affiliated with the Medical School, while it was probable that medical students would observe. “They would only be women,” she said. Roller added that the Clinic would have to be a “real teaching place.” He said there might have to be certain changes which would “make it less attractive to a degree.” Meanwhile, the supply rOom of the Clinic will remain open daily beginning Monday, and gynecological examinations , and contraceptive distribution will begin within three weeks. College of Social Sciences to remain The College’s Council, the governing body of the Collegiate passed System, a resolution “the Thursday supporting continued existence of Social Sciences College.” The resolution was a response to the minority report of the Colleges Charter (CCRC), Review Committee which recommended the College be disolved, and a report to President Robert Ketter from Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg, which upheld much of the criticism offered in the report. The review committee majority report recommended continuation of the College until January 1977, if the College re-forms with new leadership and a new program. The council resolution was passed by a vote of eight to two, with two abstentions. Haynie, Tolstoy Charlie representative, College said “political repression” on campus included attempts to get rid of all Marxists. “Social Sciences College has been on the front lines all year, and if the Administration gets rid of them, the cutting edge of the Administration will be that much closer to all of us.” The motion supports the right of all Colleges to complete their charters and notes that this is the sentiment of the review committee majority report. “We do not support changes in Social Sciences College or in any College which would violate the full participation of staff, students and faculty in the governance ojF or ehtniriate College the instructors drawn from the community,” it stated. The motion adds that the changes would “contradict the concept of the Colleges as they were formulated from their inception.” The motion also calls for out revisions in a carrying reasonable, democractic manner, and allowing sufficient time for their implementation. Lastlyj it said that channels for discussion and negotiation should be set up immediately with the Chartering Committee. t , Representatives at the meeting also expressed fears that similar actions would be taken against them by the administration, in attempts to do away with all the Colleges, a spokesman said. Executive Vice President (and acting University President) Albert Somit said the Committee had done a “very scrupulous. Irving Spitzberg impartial, detailed study” of Social Sciences College. Somit also said he is convinced that this report will follow the usual pattern; copies have already been sent to senior officers concerned with the report and their replies have been solicited, and all pertinent information will be collected and correlated by the president’s office. Then the report will be released, he added. Somit stated that all documents are expected to have been received within the next few days, and action should be taken next week. “It is very unfortunate that the impartiality of the Committee has been questioned,” Somit said. Veterans’ benefits sharply decreased Approximately 3000 veterans attending this University have lost educational benefits provided under the G.I. Bill because the University’s “approved” status has been revoked by the Veterans Administration (VA). Earlier this year VA began enforcing a 20-year old regulation requfring colleges and universities to maintain records of the number of veterans attending their institution, any changes in their credit hours or addresses, and to report them within 30 days of the beginning of the semester. . At that time, this University’s Veterans Coordinator Clarence F. Dye stated that the regulation could not be met. The drop-add period here is three to four weeks, with an additional wait of at least a week for class lists. At this University the Office of Admissions and Records cannot provide the necessary information in the allotted time, he explained. Stricter a ilication Additionally, VA has modified its regulations to gain a greater say in what shall be considered “satisfactory progress” by a veteran tpward his degree, according to Ed Serba, Chairman of the Western New York Concerned Veterans Coalition. (See Serba’s assessment of the many difficulties facing the Vietnam veteran on today’s editorial page.) Dye said V.A’s interference would infringe on the right of the University to administer its own academic .programs. Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti added that any student allowed to continue in this University has met the required standard for progress and such standards should be-left up to the discretion of the University. Sefba said the current problem stems from VA’s desire to strictly apply its laws concerning veteran eligibility. Last year a great deal of controversy arose over overpayments totalling several million dollars to ineligible veterans. Faced with substantial cutbacks in its funding, the VA sought to reduce spending and exert greater control over the benefits being disbursed. Additional difficulty faces veteran’s who wish to transfer to another institution with “approved” status because of 4 another VA technicality which does not allow vets to transfer more than twice and still receive educational benefits. Veterans who have already done this and are now at this University face complete loss of benefits. Friday, 18 June 1976 . The Spectrum . Page three �Guest Opinion EditPrial A terrible waste The University Bookstore's policy of destroying overstocked and unsold books is carried out as a convenience. Stripping the covers and returning them to the publishers for credit is a legitimate business practice. But dumping them by the bagful is as needless and wasteful as ’ , . . ' . it is ridiculous. sVnall horrors from public many conceals large university A scrutiny. The quiet, almost invisible fashion in which the books are dropped into the receptacle behind Norton Hall, and the reluctance of the Bookstore officials to discuss it, betrays an embarassing failure of imagination, if not an admission of guilt. If the simple destruction of books is not the policy’s goal, the end result is certainly the same, and ? deserves to be questioned on those grounds. There are an ample number of creative alternatives. Of the three separate retail outlets of Walden Books, each indicated that it frequently donated stripped books to individual employees, charities, or local hospitals. For obvious reasons, those who receive the donated books are only too happy to handle the shipping themselves. Similarly, two employees from Buffalo Textbook at University Plaza said stripped books are thrown in a big bin in front of the store where people may take them for free. University Bookstore Manager Thomas Moore‘s insistence that the books are destroyed on publishers orders appears to be more rationalization than reality. Publishers contacted in New York indicated that they either had no concern with what happens to unsold only books, as long as they are not put on sale again, or that they any said there was destroyed. publisher No preferred that the books be to unsold books. way they could control what happened Although the majority of books destroyed are paperbacks, and although the numbers may be small compared to the size of the inventory, virtually all books are expensive, and certainly each one is a precious educational commodity. We strongly urge the bookstore management to find some better way of disposing unsold, stripped books. Other bookstores have showen us better ways. A book is a terrible thing to waste. SASU and Jackalone Former Student Association President Frank Jackalone's election as president of the Student Association of the State University (SASU) is fortunate for all SUNV students. Jackalone has shown himself to be perhaps the most competent and best prepared advocate of student rights we have seen in past years. But the challenge he faces in taking over the leadership,of SASU is great. SASU has been declining steadily in quality, often finding itself bogged down in procedural and technical matters. These cases have concerned the seating of SASU delegations, restrictions on Executive Committee membership, and, symptomatically, payment of dues by member schools. In the past academic year, at least three member schools have dropped out, and others are questioning the value of the organization. This, to an extent, is understandable in view of the personal bickering that has occured while the SUNY budget was drastically cut and tuition increased. But the crisis facing SUNY only points out the need for a strong statewide student lobby, free from internal strife, which can devote itself to improving the condition of SUNY, and ensure that the students' voice is informed, intelligent, and forceful. This must certainly be Jackalone's. goal. In this we wish him good luck.

The June 11 The Spectrum reported me as having said: “This University is an authoritarian system; Ketter is responsible for it and everyone else serves only in an This quotation is taken out of advisory capacity context. Please let me clarify matters, since I would never accuse President Ketter of responsibility for a general condition of American universities that existed before he and 1 were born! Universities are authoritarian structures. Their chancellors and presidents are appointed by boards of trustees, councils, or special committees representing community elite groups, regional elite, corporate interests, business and industry, etc. They are not elected, and they serve at the pleasure of those who appoint them. Lesser administrative personnel, faculty senates, and standing and special committees serve at the chief’s pleasure and are advisory, not legislative. The chief may also advise his superiors, but he is not free to run his unit according to his own design. For more information, I recommend the new book by Samuel Bowles and Herbert Gintis, Schooling in Capitalist America (New York: Basic Books, 1976). The problem in integrating a unit like Social Sciences College into any university is that I, or any other administrative officer (we do not have a “master,” according to the by-laws which were ..

This contradiction is impossible to resolve, and no amount of “reform” can bring about its realization. This is not a quantitative issue of giving a little more here and taking a little more there; it is qualitative. That is, only a qualitative change in the nature of the institution will bring it about. Can an authoritarian, elitist educational structure which is geared to the production of workers on all levels, who are required to internalize or submit to the “discipline” of the working place (or be fired) become a democracy? I submit that if it did, its garduates would not be able easily to hold down jobs for which they had not been prepared. Who would tolerate democracy, from kindergarten to graduate school, if education equipped people to change things? Only the people! It is a pity that our ideology obscures the real nature of the institution we are in for so many of us. We all should work harder to understand the nature and limitations of our workplace. William W.

Prodigal Sun �'June in Buffalo'festival produces quality music by L.H. Brokoff Spectrum Music Staff There will be periods when some of us will not be able to attend nor enjoy evenings of new musics but here and now we have the fortune of the "June in Buffalo" festival. It presents night after night quality performances and a variety of events. This past week started with "Miss Simpson's Parlor, 1905," Monday (June 7) night's audience entered, a turn of the century parlor and were delighted by soprano Winifred Simpson and her illustrious pianist, Professor Yvar Mikhashoff. "Does this belong on a new music festival?" The songs and repartee were dug out of an old attic, but dusted off meticulously and if the language seemed old, the form was certainly new theater, total! Tuesday night belonged to the four sonatas for violin and piano of Charles Ives. A suburban audience hearing an Ives' Symphony by the Buffalo Philharmonic equates him with "that modern music," but this week he is the tradition. Paul Zukpfsky was very much in control, his violin playing lyrical, smooth and occasionally exiciting. f was impressed with the piano (more than accompaniment) playing of Gilvert Kalish; it was sometimes strong and aggressive, overshadowing/overpowering the violin. Wednesday evening was devoted to the music of University of Buffalo music professor Lejaren Hiller. I have always enjoyed Dr. Hiller's music be it computer, electronic or acoustical, there always seems to be that witty palyfulness about it. This concert was no exception. His detailed program notes gave the embarrassingly small audience insight into his present research of computer-generated music ("Algorithms") and his more personal choices ("Malta for Tuba and Tape" and "Portfolio for Diverse Performers and Tape"). The Creative Associates were not in their finest hour that evening; a missed cue in the first piece caused a restart and set an uncomfortable attitude on and off stage. — — —.

"Love Song" from Tumbleweed Connection Do you remember that tender ballad from Elton John's most Creative album? Incisive, but lovingly touching, "Love Song" was penned by Leslie Duncan, who now has lent her talents to the solo effort. Moon Bathing. A serious but sweet release. Moon Bathing is an exhibition of a talent that treats the ear with a striking similarity to Olivia Newton-John. Duncan is better than Olivia in that she writes her own material, which is magnificent in its objective correlation to her listening audience. With Duncan one doesn't feel the candy store, pop or country rock sounds that are indigenous to Olivia's style. Olivia is great at what she does but when it comes to a final judgment, you know she isn't relating to you, the listener. In writing her own soft rock material, Lesley Duncan succeeds in making the audience feel as if she is actually singing to you and not at you. The analogy to Olivia seems an awfully shrewd concept to me. I've often wondered why a producer, any producer, hadn't sought to reap the Olivia gold mine. Well it seems someone has, either by accident or contrivance, and at the risk of souhding Lesley-Olivia redundant another perfect as as Olivia Lesley isn't analogy: (thank God) in the realm of vocal range, since her semi-soprano voice stops its upward climb at a few points during Moon — - "Oh it's fine to fee/ this free Just let me keep this much A touch of sanity.

And what a tradition it is. Southside Johnny grooves to his lifestyle and / Don't Want To Go Home reflects his friendly style of music to the world. r As Bruce Springsteen tells it in .the liner notes, Southside Johnny is a weird personality who can sing and play the blues. His “general conversation consists of insulting everyone within 50 feet.” Those words cannot tell the whole story of Southside Johnny; his life is told in his music. It's an E Street kind of beat that relates to dark bars, wild laughter, and sticky, hot-summer-night fun. This fantastic beat may soon be lost forever a cardinal reason for this album's production — premise. I first heard Southside Johnny a couple of weeks back when the local progressive to broadcast a live concert from Asbury Park. The reception and engineering made the concert sound like mud, but one could gather that the audience was having a great time and Southside Johnny was playing his heart FM station decided out. So now f've got the Southside Johnny album right in my grubby, ruddy, ready little paws, and the artist’s transgression from Hersey live to studio album gives the lift that flaunts the listener a street-life syncopation so reminiscent t»f except it's livlier. Southside Springsteen Johnny interprets music with a rhythm that peits the senses with a feeling that is nightclub and professionally flowing enough to produce a mindful matrix that is the best of both those worlds. The music,is arranged in such a way that ong can conceive the pathos Johnny is trying to convey via vocal tone. The life in Asbury Park must. be somewhat shoddy, and I must venture to say boring, and one must turn to ijiusic as an escape. Such music has — " Page eight The Spectrum .

Her sad but complements the playing strengthened mood. Lesley learns the lesson of freedom in "Wooden Spoon," and relates philosophy that is not overruling but understood by the audience. The song's arrangement is disconcerting in trying to keep up with Lesley's tale of maturing in life and wisdom while Lesley progresses through a certain stage in her life a lotid synthesizer note travels from one speaker to another spoiling the song's tempo. Her backup group is well-balanced but somewhere in the engineering or production backing strings, synthesizers, and drums overpower the fine voice of Lesley Duncan. a cold night the earth's in pain But in the firelight I'll start again." No one could offer you more in lyrics filming with simple truth as espoused in me above quoted words from my favorite aloDw cut, "Rocking Chair." Through the unpretentious words, there flies a haunting a pleasing melody. The similes she puts forth stir the listener to thought and leaves him deeply pondering the power of the gentle songstress. "Rocking Chair" is special in that it doesn't display Lesley Duncan, the "hooker" in profusion. By this I mean the tiresome "hooker" that contrives a melody of a few notes and repeats those notes at least ten times in succession through the course of a song. A few songs on the album reveal this horrid phenomenon and would be unbearable in their redundancy save for Lesley's voice. At first I was a trifle apprehensive in reviewing this album. It seemed that another artist was about to jump upon the success of the E-lton John bandwagon and superstardom's smother,.. me in Further, as I saw Lesley was recotcTing on Elton's label I almost lost all hope. But the soft rock music and lyric within Moon Bathing put that unwarranted conclusion to' rest. I usually fall in live about once a week and, face it, folks, this week it's with Lesley Duncan. I'm sure you'll feet the same if you. purchase Lesely's album. "Do you know what I mean, have your eyes really seen?" Harold Goldberg commercialism. — with the vibraphone played by Pierre Moerlen. Pierre Moerlen is the group's drummer. His grace and dexterity are fantastic, conjuring up images of Bill Bruford and Mick Fleetwood while still maintaining a unique identity; he could easily put such contemporaries as Alan White and Carl Palmer to shame. As if this weren't enough, he has also written one of the album's best songs: the intricate, beautiful "Mandrake." As a bassist, Mike Hewlett is more than adequate, which is fine since Gong does not rely too heavily on bass. He less adequate at writing lyrics; they tend to be shallow and trivial. Fortunately, though, Gong does not concentrate on lyrics, either. Patrice Lemoine is a new addition to the are usually good and add to the jazz like group. His keyboard playing is reminiscent flavor of the album (unless, he breaks for of the Chick Corea, but he is so good at it too long). Malherbe does not stick that it is worth listening to anyway. He completely to jazz-rock, but brings in utilizes synthesizers sparingly, something oriental and Spanish motifs which give that should be very much to his credit. Shamal some welcome variety without Shamal is a very straightforward album breaking its continuity. which lacks most of the weirdness that Much of the percussion is handled by used to be the band's trademark. I suppose Mireille Bauer. She is especially talented on this will disappoint many longtime Gong the Glockenspiel, an instrument that Gong fans (if such people exist). However, you relies on more heavily than most other can't stay weird forever, and Shamal is groups. Her work on the xylophone is also every , bit as good as Invisible Radio Gnome notable, particularly when it is combined Part!. -Eugene Zielinski to be invigorating, since it's designed as an outlet for city pressures. Every ounce of energy the a,rtist has is put into his music it turns out well since there is nothing else — to do. Johnny's spirit is in the music which covers years of hard and struggling city life. The R&B flavor that permeates the album's texture is a treasure found especially in the Springsteen remake, "You Mean So Much To Me." Johnny's rough, moving voice combines with the softly raucous Ronnie Spector to yield a funk that is better than Springsteen's. The piano plunks on a snack of notes while the horn section is nourished by pure facile energy. I hold an imaginary shot glass of gin in my hand while Southside provides the tonic. It's hard to believe that everyone is so together on this album; throughout "I Don't Want To Go Home" there is the pleasing ramification that every band member knows his place and no one ever, ever oversteps his designated musical boundary. There is comedy in the angry sadness that pierces the heart when one knows that Johnny's girl has been cheating on him; the song is "How Come You Treat Me So Bad" and showcases a Gascoigne-like joy in grief. Another Springsteen remake is "The Fever"; as powerful waves of music filter through the speakers there is a turgid raunch to Johnny's vocals that somehow produces a crisply clear tone. "I Don't Want To Go Home's" title track shows how horny Southside can be by this I mean that the trumpets and trombones seem to breeze their way through tpe song like a stiff summer wind on a hot, humid day. And that's what Southside Johnny does; they flow high above much of the rock schlock that my ears are constantly bombarded with. The effort is lilting and glowing with the music of an area that is destined to become as classic as Chicago's blues. Make your house into a raunchy nite-club, gather 'round the phonograph and get your little bod high on the music of Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes. -Harold Goldberg — Prodigal Sun �The class of ’26 celebrates by line Nussbaum Spectrum St'aff Writer The class of '26 rediscovered the grounds of the UB cantpus last Friday, celebrating its 50th reunion with roast beef and sherry a la food service. Thrity-five members of the class, along with 56 members of previous classes, gathered in the Ellicott Complex, some seeing each other for the first time in fifty years The reunion began at 10 a.m. in the Spaulding dining area. Upon registering at the reception desk, alumni members received a “yearbook," especially prepared for the occasion which contained updated photographs of members of the class, along with capsule biographies attempting to bring alumni up to date with each other. A reception, lasting about three hours, allowed guests to mingle, talk and revive old memories. Joseph Pisa of the medical class of 1926 said that he has attended almost all the reunions.’ which are.held every five years per class, explaining that he maintains no other contact with the members of his class. When’ asked his impression of the Ellicott complex, he called it “fabulous')" Little interaction The alumni generally commented that since there was no campus in 1926. there was little student interaction. Pisa said that the only contact with other students earnest sporting events such as football or basketball games. Leo Marabella of the 1926 pharmacy class said that sports were “the only entertainment" available to UB students in 1926. For Benjamin Clark, a 1926 graduate in Arts and Letters, this was the first reunion he had ever attended. After leaving Buffalo, he did graduate work at M.I.T.. thus losing contact with many of his fellow classmates. He, too, mentioned football as the chief source of .entertainment because it was on campus. Despite popular belief, he claimed, "the twenties were not exactly roaring." There were also several members of pre-l l )26 classes present. Glenn DeGalleke ol' the I 1>I5 dentistry class was impressed with the hIIicon its fiftieth reunion Complex, although he said it looks as if “they just spent a hell of a lot of money." DeGalleke said that when he was a student here, “there was no campus, just a building." Students from outside Buffalo (DeGalleke came from Rochester) generally lived in boarding houses. He recalled paying five dollars a week for hjs. room and board. For entertainment, the DeGalleke said, “We out in hung GermtJn-Amcrican Brewing Company on Main Street." ‘Too busy working' Many of the people felt that since the medical school was located on High Street, the dentistry school on Goodrich Street, and the law building on Eagle Street (all in downtown Buffalo), students had little, if any. opportunity to meet students from other disciplines. In 1926 the Main Street campus was relatively undeveloped, and Rotary Field was the only place where a large number of student could gather socially. Freda D. Newbury, a graduate of the 1926 law class, said that even in the law school there was little political activity among the students because they were “loo busy working.” To her knowledge, most of the women in the law class were able to find jobs without difficulty. She personally never encountered any problems, as a woman, in her work. While in school, she worked in a law office, starling as a secretary, then working as a clerk, and eventually beginning her legal career in that office. Slje still maintains a practice, in Lancaster. New York. Benjamin Clark -Santos Myron McGuire Accessible to minorities Myron McGuire was the only black graduate of the class of 1926. though, he emphasized, not the first in the University. McGuire said the University never had any policy against blacks and added that “the University was very helpful in getting minorities through school." He said said there were no racial but high school quotas. Local high school students were given priority in admissions to the University over those'students from out of the area. McGuire received a full scholarship from the Douglass Club, a black women's organi/alion. which continued on paqe 11 —courtesy of University Archives Computerized welfare and Medicaid systems ? by Paul Dlugosz S/Hxtmm Staff Writer Two bills under consideration the State Legislature could result in computerized Welfare and Medicaid systems for New York State. The two Senate Bills, S-10525 and S-10526, were introduced by Republican W.T. Smith and are presently in the Senate Rules Committee. Two comparable bills the A-12233 Assembly, in (Welfare) and A-l 2234 (Medicaid) were proposed by Democrat George Miller and are presently in the Ways and Means Committee. Assemblyman William B. Hoyt (D.. Buffalo) has announced his strong support for both bills as a means of relieving the State’s fiscal crisis, citing "horror stories of abuse and fiscal nightmares that local governments are having with these programs." “The creation of a Welfare Management System and Medicaid Information System to administer eligibility and claims adjustment by computer could save the State and localities millions of tax dollars,” Hoyt emphasized, “as daily waste is estimated at one million dollars.” Welfare costs are presently shared by County, State and governments, Federal the by proportions varying according to the program. The two bills carry a total price tag of forty million dollars, with an estimated three years before they would be operational. It would take a projected ten years before the State would recoup its initial investment.

The Spectrum Page nine . ; �$ 1.87 an hour wage is legal by Curl Koehler Special to The Spectrum (This story was originally prepared for NSA Momentum, the newsletter of the National Student Association.) (CPS) What’s the starting wage for the student worker who checks out library books, answers the phone at the student union or cleans tables at the campus dining hall? At most schools, students receive the federally legislated minimum wage of $2.20 an hour. Yet student workers at some 540 schools earn only $1.87 an hour for the exact same jobs. What’s the catch? paid students receive the The poorly “subminimum” wage, a legally sanctioned pay policy for full-time students working up to 20 hours per week. Students at these schools forego 15 percent of the wages they would otherwise be legally entitled to simply because they are students. Schools aren’t the only ones who rely on discount student labor to get their work done. Retail and service establishments such as fast food chain restaurants along with agricultural employers are also authorized to paj£_>hili-time students the subminimum. — — — Abolition urged NOW OPEN application of subminimum wages than currently authorized would encourage employers to hire “less competent” young people to receive “on-the-job training," thus reducing the unemployment level for this group. These hopes have not panned out with the subminimum laws currently on the books, Rep. O’Hara told the subcommittee. Instead, the subminimum “has depressed wage standards, gutted the basic principle' of the Fair Labor Standards Acti and feathered the economic nest of the large and politically powerful fast-food chains.” O’Hara argued that youth unemployment cannot be solved by subminimum wages for students or anyone else. “Lower wages do not create more jobs,” he said. “Instead,” O’Hara added, “meaningful reductions in unemployment rates for American can only be achieved workers younger or older by the adoption and Vigorous implementation of national goals, policies and programs that promote a sound and expanding full employment economy.” — — Hash slingers Responding to an argument that those who pay the subminimum need an incentive to “teach” young and unskilled workers job skills, one opponent of the subminimum noted that the “great youth employers of this country” want “hash slingers and hamburger servers, not learners.” On the other hand, proponents of the subminimum have claimed that authority to pay reduced wages is necessary to prevent the loss of already existing student jobs. In response, NSL’s Pressman argued that students are hired, not out of some altruistic desire to give students money, but to do a job that needs to be done. “We must get away from the notion that paying a student a subminimum wage to work in a dining hall carting dishes or in a library stacking books is doing that student a favor,” Pressman said. NSA’s Gilbert noted that many of these 540 schools also paid subminimum wages to College Work-Study students. Work-Study is a financial aid program where students with documented financial need work for wages subsidized by an 80 percent federal contribution. In recent testimony before the House Labor Standards Subcommittee, National Student Association President Clarissa Gilbert branded the subminimum “discriminatory” and urged its abolition. “Students work because they have to,” Gilbert said. “We are asking for fair treatment for these student workers in their battle to stay even with the skyrocketing costs pf education and the debilitating effects of inflation.” “The dollar amounts these students earn directly affects whether or not they can buy books, where they live, what they eat, where they go to school and the amounts of additional monies that they need to finance their education in the form of grants, loans and support from their families.” Rep. James O’Hara (D., Mich.) and the National Student Lobby Co-Director Steve Pressman also testified before the House subcommittee during We find it unthinkable that the federal hearings on an O’Hara bill that would virtually government, which established minimum wage abolish the subminimum. Standards, should subsidize subminimum wages,” Gilbert said. Rationale offerred of the subminimum have Proponents The NSA president noted that Work-Study was argued that substandard wages spur the creation of new set up primarily to allocate financial aid, and that student jobs by offering employers an incentive to with the subminimum, students only have to work hire students. They contend that even broader longer hours to meet their financial needs.” SASU conference... Earlier, the conference Had been marred by procedural battles over the credentials of many SASU delegates. On Friday night, the outgoing officers stated that some of the schools present would not be permitted to vote if they did not sign a “contract” committing their SA to pay SASU dues for the 1976-77 year. Representatives of many schools protested that they had not seen the contract nor had known about the necessity of signing it before the beginning of the conference. Some also said they could not legally sign such a contract anyway because of fiscal policies them, as SUNY governing Buffalo’s SA Treasurer Carol Block pointed out, or because their respective student senates would have to approve them first. However, the SASU officers insisted upon not seating the disputed delegates, and when the roll was called their names were not included. This led to a challenge of the ruling of the (Kirkpatrick) Chairman and commenced a four-hour debate on who is a delegate and who isn’t. Finally, Kirkpatrick’s ruling was overturned by the membership almost unanimously. The only Page ten . The Spectrum . three votes supporting the ruling came from Kirkpatrick, Kaboolian and Hamowitz. Controversial first action The contract idea apparently stemmed from difficulty in recent years in collecting dues from several schools, who were allowed' to participate in conferences and be active members while they had not paid, compounding SASU’s already shaky budgetary situation. The only school not seated in time for the elections was Stony Brook, whose application was tabled until after the elections because they had dropped ouf of the organization earlier this year during the inter-organizational disputes and are, as one delegate termed it, “a member in bad standing.” Finally, the roll was complete and elections were held on Saturday night. Elected to the SASU and Assembly Executive Committees were Lynn Bittner (SUNY Buffalo), Michael Brown (Buff State), Judy Doesschate (New Lisa Paltz), Chasin (Binghamton), Jane Otto (Canton), Paul Harris (Optometry), Tony Brown and Mary Krakowiak (Oswego), John Duggan Siegler and Todd (Potsdam) and Dana McClymond Friday, 18 June 1976 buffalo 124 Elmwood JAZZ REPORT IAllentown Mall) presents Complete Line of HtAD GEAR DAISHIKI'S BILL EVANS TRIO OPEN: 11:30 5:30 M- Sat.

But despite these rare occasions of antagonism and general rudeness, the operators seem to note and agree that the general courtesy level of the students has greatly improved in the,past few years. “It seems that the students have become more polite, injecting more ‘pleases’ and ‘thank-yous’ into their speech,” Claimed Kay Marshall. The women attribute this to the end of the war period, claiming that students are more at peace with themselves now, and are reflecting this in their behavior. They also attribute this new politeness to the general lack of money associated with most students.

The University telephone operator provides a campus service which is often ignored and unrewarded. Students and faculty in need of information dial “O” rather mechanically, taking the people at the other end for granted. Yet, Mildred Wilhelm, Sally Pasternak, Gloria Roselle, and Marge Parlotto, the members of the staff, do not seem to mind as they go beyond that call of duty each day to satisfy the incoming and inquisitive requests. Each of these woman are civil service employees, who must follow ~the rules and regulations that the government enforces. All five operators work thirty-seven and a half hours a week, and are not permitted to work overtime. Nevertheless, from the hours of 8 a.m. to 12 midnight, the switchboard is ponstantly “manned,’’ After - midnight, an answering service receives all ;t incoming calls. Besides performing the most obvious task of searching for home and office numbers, the staff, which works out of a small office on the first floor of Goodyear, must also keep records and books on all the activities associated with the University. This type of organization often becomes burdensome because of the everchanging positions of the various offices, Clubs and department figures. The one major complaint is that, no one ever informs them of the changes that are made. Many times they have no idea how to inform their callers. Each day extra homework is required. Besides the regular work that their official title of Information Clerk requires, the operators must go type of even further and become a “jack-of-all-trades.” Often their routine of relaying information is not enough, and they must aid in other ways. This occurs in several different manners. One such instance is when a new foreign student will call the ftperator.

Huskies and pencil cases Following the luncheon, alumni members took bus tours of the North Campus. Many had never seen the campus, and asked questions about the “Bubble” and Governors Residence Halls, among other things. ToUr director Richard Baldwin discreetly avoided using the more common name for the Bubble (The Ketterpillar) when describing it to the visitors. Several people felt the new campus was too big, and one woman could not believe the campus was only one-third completed. “In wintertime you’d need a pair of skis to get between buildings on the campus,” one man exclaimed, while another felt that a team of huskies might be more valuable. The thirty-five people who attended the reunion represented one-third of the surviving members of the class of ’26, which originally numbered about 400. The oldest alumnus present was Angelo Scalzc of the class of 1910. Marion M. Kelleran of Alexandria, Virginia, traveled the longest distance to the reunion.

A separate minority opinion recommended immediate termination of the College because its three signers felt the College would be unable to meet the conditions and was more detrimenal than helpful in its current form. In addition, Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg said in an accompanying memorandum to President Robert Ketter that the College should be terminated if it does not meet the conditions—fijit he added that steps should be eiWe the decision about the future, of toe College is divorced from a decision about 6 U re emiC pr °^ ramS tau^t °t ffrom a |w Marxist perspective. ° Win8 rhartp chartering % nf t committee hy fhearings, *"!“ in Colleges, but ordered periodic review. Representatives of the College denounced the report as contradictory and politically motivated (see editorial page). The documents, dated May 26, have not been made public yet by University administrators. They give an incomplete picture of what appears to be a favorable recommendation from the Chartering Committee on behalf of Tolstoy College and scathing criticism of the condition of Social Sciences College (see page 2 for text). Ketter was originally expected to make a final decision on the future of the two Colleges Tuesday, but this was postponed pending further evaluation. The Chatering Committee was set up as part of a new constitution for the Colleges written by the Faculty Senate Colleges Committee in 1974. The Committee was headed by Physics Professor Jonathan Reichert, this years Faculty Senate Chairman. The Reichert prospectus, as it to be called was a roved by the PP entire Faculty Senate , in February over -- ’ Fall Social Sciences, among others, to undergo further bitter opposition from those who claimed that subjecting the Colleges to the scrutiny of Faculty dominated chartering committee was the first step toward dismantling the system, or affecting a fundamental change for the worse in the Colleges character. The new constitution and system of review, its supporters argued at the time, would strengthen the Colleges by ensuring their academic legitimacy. The six conditions for chartering are: -continued on page u- Orientation program is disrupted bp DUE action by Bert Black Spectrum Staff Writer In an action termed “unauthorized” by Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) Dean Charles Ebert, over seven hundred prospective freshmen from Western New York were invited to campus in mid-May for an “early advisement” program, carried out by the DUE advisement staff. The students completed course request forms, thus shortcurcuiting activities normally supervised during Freshman Orientation. Orientation officials expressed over a possible drop in attendance and a corresponding decrease in funds. Ebert made his statement in a memorandum, sent to Robert Grantham, Associate Dean and Director of Advisement. The memo also indicated that the University Orientation Committee met June 2 to discuss the problems brought on by the unauthorized early advisement. The University Orientation Committee consists of Ebert, Admissions and Records Director Richard Dremuk, Associate Vice President Anthony Lorenzetti, EOP Director Ranee Jackson, and Director of Orientation John Buerk. Letters to high schools The Ebert memorandum also stated that a letter being sent to high school counselors at local schools should not state that the early advisement was unauthorized, but should instead emphasize the “experimental” nature of the program. The letter will also ask the counselors to urge their students to attend Orientation, the memo indicated. Buerk said he expects a decrease in attendance at Orientation. The Orientation program as currently planned wfflgay\ for itself, Buerk said.'But in the case that 716 Western New Yorkers fail to attend, there would be a loss of over $24,000 according to Howard Schapiro, Buerk’s administrative assistant. However, the total loss will be diminished somewhat by variable costs that depend on the number of students attending. Ebert said in an interview Friday that “early advisement” was not integrated with the Orientation program, not cleared with the University Orientation Committee, and was not a substitute for Orientation. He characterized it as an “independent operation.” Grantham reported Tuesday that the 716 students who were invited to campus met with academic advisors, while some students saw faculty and staff members in the Engineering and Health Sciences Faculties. They were then given individual appointments with their advisors and an opportunity to work with the registration materials, he said. According to Grantham, some freshmen did fill out and return data and course request forms, but he said that approximately 60 percent took the forms home to consult with their high school and parents. Most of these students will either return their registration forms later this summer, or at Orientation sessions. Grantham also said that no attempt has been made to process the forms. They will be processed August 6 after all Orientation sessions are over. When asked who authorized the program, Grantham said it was run by the DUE Advisement staff. “My staff can’t do anything of that size without my knowing about it,” he added. , Did their jobs Similarly, a DUE staff member said, “We take our orders from Dr. Grantham. Whatever we do must be sanctioned by him. We cannot do anything without the permission of Dr. Grantham or Assistant Director Dorothy Wynne. Otherwise we would be fired.” The staff member added, “We did our job the early advisement was i* v Tcent advisement. I don’t feel that Dr. Grantham ur his staff did anything wrong by doing their job. It is the perrogative of the Director of the staff to direct.” According to the staff member, both the early advisement and transfer orientation, which are similar programs, were discussed at staff meetings in December on problem areas in advisement. The staff member said he was — ' • surprised that no complaints had been raised at the time over transfer orientation which is completely under the control of DUE Advisement. Also, the staffer said that the early advisement program was not kept a secret and that it was not intended to hurt Orientation. The staff member added that approval of the program had not come from their advisors, but that “some good people are being made to look bad. The advisors are being made to look as if they did this in spite of everything. We did it under direction.]' Buerk said that his initial reaction to the early advisement was concern that the various programs at the University not be confused. He also said that he hoped that the early advisement could be well integrated with Orientation, but that it was inevitable to encounter some confusion in such a large University. No one registered Ebert emphasized that no students have been registered during the early advisement. He called a report in the June 3 Summer Reporter inaccurate, for saying that they had. He asked that news reports by cleared through his office from now on. Dorothy Wynne, Assitant Director of Advisement, said that there would be no problems if the “early” students wished to change their registration. DUE advisors would be available to these students throughout the summer if they requested further advisement or a change of registration before the forms were run through the computer. This would relieve the load on other advisors, allowing them to spend more time with other students attending Orientation. Another reason for the program was the desire to supply information about SUNYAB to students through their high school counselors first through local schools, and then on a statewide basis, Wynne said. In the past, many incoming students have asked for appointments with advisors, she said, and this was an attempt to organize these students into one group. Wynne said that those - —continued on page 6— �Text of the report on Social Sciences College Results of Evaluation; Sciences College Social individuals without clear direction or purpose.

Social Sciences College needs to Although Professor Stein has be Initial indicated that he plans to resign as questioned. intransigence only slowly gave Master at the end of the Spring, viable way to reluctant cooperation, an 1976 semester, no attitude that pretty much candidates to replace him have yet characterized the College’s emerged. coordinators throughout our evaluation procedures. Perceived C. Academic Theme of the threats to the academic freedom College As stated in their charter and of the College as well as residual suspiciousness from last year’s reinforced in the introduction to chartering process served as their attractively prepared 1975 academic year. Favorable, though informal, evaluations were made by nearly all students participating in the College’s courses. It would certainly be useful,.and to the advantage of Social Sciences College, to student translate these objective a more into impressions format. Members of the Social Sciences Sub-committee about the reasons for speculated the strong show of student enthusiasm. One possibility concerned the relevance to current social problems of topics covered in courses, especially when they are considered from less traditional points of view. A second hypothesis focused on the members of the Executive Committee of Social Sciences College was particularly adamant to permitting in relation classroom visits by individuals functionally unrelated to the College who, it was felt would also probably not have the requisite backgrounds to properly and objectively evaluate how and what was being taught. In essence, their objections represented a concern that their academic not be violated. freedom Agreement to outside evaluations was finally, though reluctantly, obtained with a significant provision which was designed to both the College’s uphold ideologically based resistance to their perception of a potential violation of their academic integrity and to comply with our Committee’s request. The resulting compromise offered individual faculty members the option of deciding whether or not they would permit observers in their classrooms. Once the selection was made in this manner, sampling of courses could no considered longer be representative. Two classes, Political Economy and Press and Society, were visited by three sub-committee members and one class, Vietnam Veterans, by one sub-committee member. Because of the relatively small class sizes, student input is strongly encouraged and indeed obtained within a seminar-like, informal, academic rather environment where for the most part dialogue replaced didacticism. Many examples, usually drawn from the current social scene, are used to reinforce a particular theoretical position or to demonstrate its applicability. When such a “case study” approach to teaching is utilized there is always the danger that examples and illustrations will either substitute for more precisely gathered, consensually validated data or will render such data less important or relevant. It is also clear that examples may be employed selectively, thereby precluding a balanced \ apparent justifications for resisting further evaluations. After several, meetings with the Master and members of the Executive Committee, resistance relaxed, thereby facilitating the data-gathering process, and suspiciousness was replaced by caution. It was not until the present evaluation process was completed that the College’s appeared representatives comfortable genuinely with members of our Committee. catalogue of courses, the academic missions of Social Sciences College are to study social from a processes radical perspective and to develop models which may then be applied to current social problems. Their curriculum has been designed to provide an orientation to social and political theory currently underrepresented at the State University of New York at Buffalo. D. Academic Program B. The Master Professor Stein, the Master of Social Sciences College accepts little direct responsibility for either the development of the College’s academic programs or for the way it functions Although administratively. certainly competent and within his own productive discipline, Professor Stein, in harmony with his ideological and theoretical positions, seems to equate leadership with intrusive control and therefore insists upon equality among scholars and students within any academic community. While one may respect and even encourage this sort of arrangement, it is also the kind of organizational structure which requires considerable monitoring to avoid the trap of confusing an egalitarian environment with one that consists of a collection of Pagi two . The theme of the College is adequately implemented by an abundance of courses which deal with such issues as: Jensenism, Criminal Justice in America, Day Care, Radical Psychology, Marxist Economics, and Vietnam titles are Veterans. Course accompanied by informative descriptions and in some are requirements instances, stipulated. The topics and areas of knowledge covered by most of the courses lend themselves to a strong inter-disciplinary approach, an observation confirmed by the relatively high percentage of courses cross-listed with other departments. E. Student Interest Student enrollement in College-generated and cross-listed courses dropped from a total of 506 during the 1974-75 academic year to 378 for the The Spectrum rFriday, 11 June 1976 camaraderie and collegiality experienced in a classroom setting where the emphasis is on dialogue and student input is encouraged without fear that disagreement will lead to ridicule. Thirdly, the deemphasis on examinations and grades may make the students fee) more comfortable. At least theoretically an “ideal” learning environment may have been established. F. Classroom Visits The initial opposition to the current evaluations expressed by presentation of a particular topic These problems did arise during some of the classroom observations and it}ay have been exacerbated as a function of the heterogenous levels of academic sophistication among the students. Without appropriate backgrounds and concerns for critical thinking, examples remain the trappings of an intellectual discipline instead of serving to support and elaborate the tenets or postulates derived from that discipline. G. Grading Grades are assigned by instructors and are most often based upon the quality of students’ oral presentations or occasionally on term papers. Formal examining procedures are rarely employed. Nonetheless, the grade distributions in Social Sciences College courses are not significantly different from thosy in courses elsewhere in the Social Sciences. Except for a relatively large number of incompletes, the two most frequently assigned grades are A (about 40%) and B (about 30%). Grading standards appear to have become more stringent over the past year. H. Quality of Instructors Although the students’ evaluations of the instructors ranged from adequate to good, some of the Social Sciences Sub-committee members were less enthusiastic. In spite of their recognition that observers may interfere with and even influence what it is they are observing, they over the registered concern disproportionate amount of time devoted to “trivial” issues, to the neglect of more substantive considerations of data and critical analyses of how and from what sources the data were obtained. Of course, what is considered “trivial” to some observers is based upon definitions and values which are not necessarily shared by others. Perhaps more cogent is the observation that opinions are sometimes stated as fact to which —continued on page 14— �IMPOTENCE Can I offer you a cure for $10.00?

The dispersal will wipe out Lebanon’s professional class; they talk of who’s in Egypt, Syria, Saudi Arabia, friends France, Kuwait? Craftsmen, too.

Also, sooner or later something must be done about the immigrant Palestinians that fled into the country, starting in 1948, with another flood in 1967. It was a mistake, it was agreed, to let them have their own arms in their refugee camps, supported by the UN: they were making a. state within a state. Yes, something had to be done, everyone agreed; but on the other hand look how prosperous the country was; it must be doing something right. With all Lebanon’s faults in the long run the system worked pretty well and other nations could envy its democratic freedoms, its theatre and sophistication, and its high living standards affluent, that is. With each other the emigres joke at misfortunes; it is like 1929 when it wasn’t so bad since all were ruined. One laughs at the big profit he made on real estate three years ago.

If/ « Til Tlr *no*t<K, - ; i.:. j■< r.' r Guest Opinion Editor’s note: This article has been published in the Social Sciences College newspaper, ADVANCE. It is available at 211 Townsend Hall. Once again Social Sciences College has been subjected to scrutiny by the Administration. Just a little over a year ago President Ketter granted us a two year charter with the stipulation that there be a total review after 12 months. Having begun at the outset of the spring semester, this review has continued through the end v/f the school year. It is only now, June 1st, when many students and faculty are away, that we have learned of the results of the Chartering Committee. So far, the reports have remained secret,' however, some members of the College were at least able to read portions of the documents, and Spitzberg’s letter. (six votes) calls for , The majority report continuation of the provisional charter through January 1977. The minority report (three votes) calls for immediate termination of the program. The report denigrates the “Master” of the College, Dr. Stein, for his insistence upon “equality among scholars and students within the academic community,” which they maintain is consistent with his “ideological and theoretical positions.” The report further states, that “While one may respect and even encourage this sort of arrangement, it is also the kind of structure which requires considerable monitoring to avoid the trap of confusing an egalitarian environment with one that consists, of a collection of individuals without clear direction or purpose.” Yet, in just the next two paragraphs, we find that the academic program of the college is praised: “The theme of the College is adequately implemented by an abundance of courses.” Clearly then, the Committee’s fear of lack of focus is either abstract, or is not the real criticism. It would seem that the real criticism is Dr. Stein’s and the College’s “ideological and theoretical positions.” The College was originally attacked by Ketter for alleged violations of academic freedom a case this Committee was supposed to investigate. Such a charge of lack of clear direction contradicts the heated cries about - THE i one nao ueuwwR ii ' f /« GDUtCXlOti 1 All lCRR wj H lorp. m In 1 1 III IdohF M Hasaio A«6APV A Good account, but possible ideological biases. Spitzberg himself praises the College for upholding academic freedom, while “offering a particular viewpoint and having the courage to state its perspective clearly for all to see.” the majority report continues by explaining that student interest is high and speculates that this is because the college has created “at least theoretically an ‘ideal’ learning environment” due to “the relevance to current social problems of topics covered in courses,” and “a classroom setting where the emphasis is on dialogue and student input.” Yet, when it comes to the evaluation of classroom visits and instructors we find that those very teachers who have been able to create such an environment are criticized and deemed incompetant, biased and uncritical. It is interesting that the committee cldhrjs to support the purpose of the College in me abstract, while in the concrete everyday! reality of instruction, has nothing but contempt. Our instructors are being attacked for carrying out the theme, methods, and purposes of the and doing so in a manner which facilitates the freedom to question and criticize. Such inconsistencies shed the official appearance of objectivity generated by the Committee, and underscore_Jhe'perpetual political harrassment that has existed since the College’s inception. Nonetheless, most of the recommendations of the majority report do not violate the purpose of the College. Efforts are underway to comply with them. Yet what we have seen of the minority report, and Spitzberg’s report i$ totally unacceptable. The recommendations of both call for such drastic changes in the College that it would be completely unrecognizable as a center of radical and Marxist analysis. We are working on a lengthy analysis of the reports, as we obtain the, and will publish our findings in the near future. We intend to mount a major campaign in our defense, and invite all concerned people to support us. ... To the Editor.

Cooking outside, she saw a number of unfamiliar white men on her property. The men were part of a group of 16 Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation supervisors accompanied by 17 plainclothed policemen who came to the Reservation to shut off the power from the homes of twelve Seneca families who refused to pay their utility bills. Some had refused payment for as long as seventeen months, protesting the use of Seneca land by the power company. Kennedy claimed that after unsuccessful attempts to learn the men’s identities she fired three but warning shots into the air not at them. She was, however* subsequently arrested and charged with attempted murder and reckless endangerment. - Philosophical differences This incident is but one manifestation of a d e eply-ingraned emotional controversy between factions of the Seneca nation. One one hand Seneca Nation is the and its elected (Corporation) officials; on the other is the r “Traditionalist Senecas so-called “dissident group,” of which Kennedy is a member. The loyalties of 5000 members of the Seneca nation are at stake. The Traditionalists as an organization were formed in 1973, claiming a membership of over 400. They were brought together by deep emotions about their heritage and culture, and questioned the competency of the Seneca Corporation’s leadership, especially in land sales to the Federal and New York State governments. As a group, the Traditionalists refuse to accept the authority of the Seneca Corporation and its foundation, which they consider “the white man’s ways.” They support the return to “clan mother rule” and reject the Corporation as illegal; as such they consider themselves to be the only responsible leaders of the Seneca people’s return to tradition and legitimacy. Convenience and necessity The Seneca Corporation, according to Treasurer Clavin Lay, traces it existence “back to the 1700’s when the white man’s form of democracy was adopted” '"“as a matter of convenience and necessity; clan rule was thought to be too laborious and out-dated. Seneca Corporation President Robert Hoag claims that he represents 99 percent of the $050 members of the Seneca people. Hoag strongly disagreed with the Traditionalists, and claims the vast majority of the Senecas ”i GOOD FOOD RESTAURANT support the elective system of government. Lay feels that the proves the voting record confidence of the Seneca, nation in their Corporation officials. According to Lay. the relationship between the Seneca people, and the Federal and New York State governments is best described as “wards of the state,” not a foreign nation, as the Traditionalists contend. “The worst enemy of the Seneca people are some Senecas,” said Mike Kennedy, Marlene’s husband. “We have endured many trials and we will still be here in the end.” The Traditionalist Senecas.want to keep their lands, their laws and their customs, and believe that the leaders of the Corporation are too willing to compromise these elements of Seneca life.

Art, like any part of a culture, cannot remain insular to if it is to continuously progress; poetry the history and events of its time, as is music and dance. Likewise, each art form has its own various disciplines, which must be interconnected to benefit one another. The Zodiaque Company, under the direction of Linda Swiniuch, recognizes this need, and uses it to its ultimate advantage. Within the company itself, which is primarily modern, there is a mixture of ballet, modern and jazz, all combined in various proportions to add greater dimensions to the dances — — \i produced. 'Dance and Friends': Interdisciplinary theme enhances Zodiaque concert at Artpark Tv The company, which has grown tremendously since its affiliation with the University in 1961, has years of scintillating dance to the provided University community. For the first time in its career, Zodiaque will step out of its campus bounds, performing at the Artpark in Lewiston on Saturday, June 19 and Sunday, June 20. The concert has been planned in collaboration with the AmDance Company and the Royal Academy of Ballet, both of Western New York. Unity of disciplines The performance is an actual enactment of three different disciplines working together. The AmDance Company is one of the only Tap/Jazz companies in the country, while Ginger Burke's Royal Academy performs solely classical ballet. Swiniuch is thrilled by the interdisciplinary theme of the concert. "I've always felt very strongly that you can't make isolations," she stated. "It is essential that the three elements of dance are 1 interrelated at times." Although the fact that a University dance company (which is sponsored by a University that does not even have its own separate dance department) has made it so far is obviously fantastic and fairly unbelievable, Swiniuch takes it in carefully calculated stride. She is immensely proud of the progress that Zodiaque has made, and, yet, she is prepared not to move too fast "so that it doesn't fall apart by being too top-heavy." This booking, she suggests, is "kind of a beginning." Rapid growth The beginning actually occured in 1961, when Swiniuch's original company. The Company of„Man, • <-27 dispanded. This performance group was more a part the city community than the University community, yet classes were held for students. The company's building burnt down in '61, leading to the demise of the Company of Man, which, in turn, activated the creation of Zodiaque, sponsored by of SUN Vat Buffalo. "I decided that a company needs a school to develop dancers," she explained. 'This provides the University students with a performing outlet, as well as performing training, which many companies require." The company has grown rapidly since then. Dancers from the troupe have gone on to dance in professional companies. Others have gone into choreography. In fact, Janice Birnbaum, a Zodiaque "graduate" choreographed one of the pieces that will appear in Artpark. Zodiaque has performed a number of times this year at the University, usually in the small and cramped Harriman Theatre. The transition to Artpark, where the stage is 50 feet wide by 40 feet deep, has been a real uplift. "It's exciting to work in a place that huge," said Swiniuch. "We can just fly." Dance for everyone Of course, it hasn't been all that easy. Dances that were specifically choreographed for Harriman had to be revised. The company brings its own prop people to the theater, who begin work at 8 a.m. for an 8 p.m. performance. The concert itself is considered a popular concert. The music will range from Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite to the music of George Gershwin to more modern compositions, and so on. The dances, like the music, are varied so that people just beginning to develop an interest in this art will not be turned off by too much depth, while dance aficianados should have something new to encounter. "The concert should be fun to watch," claimed Swiniuch. "It will not be so heavy and so esoteric that people won't know what's coming off." The title alone. Dance and Friends, suggests its accessibility. Dance is absolutely for anyone who has ever had the urge to jump in the air for joy or huddle in terror. The movement of the body is as familiar a the physical sensation as one will ever feel expression of every and any emotion. To see this expression of freedom is as relieving as experiencing it yourself. Go see our Zodiaque Dance Company next weekend. You might just float home. — �The Statler Hilton Hotel is sponsoring a Jazz Workshop Week featuring such jazz notables as Bill Evans and Charlie Byrd.

'Trouble in Mind' features fine cast by Ken Norman Spectrum Arts Staff The SUNYAB Black Theatre Workshop's version of Trouble In Mind is being extended into the summer in conjunction with the Department of Theatre's summer theatre program. The program, which includes Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale and a travelling street theatre show for Buffalo city dwellers, begins with Trouble In MinS this weekend. An Obie Award-winning drama by Alice Childress, Trouble In Mind was presented this year in early May. Although attendance was good, the fact that finals were so close and that there was a Shakespearean comedy on campus at the same time prevented many people from seeing the highly-acclaimed work. Roberta Plutzik, a reviewer for the Buffalo Courier-Express, said the run was "really much too short." Lorna Hill, who directed the two-act drama, received invitations to Haven, take the play to other threatres around the state Connecticut. Hill hopes to start the tour with the Center in Lockport and finish with the New Haven performance as part of their summer arts festival. The touring company will be composed of the original cast, featuring Lorna Hill, Chuck Fadel, and Frank J. Robinson, who received very good reviews for his performance as Sheldon Forrester, a middle-aged black character actor. One new member will be Theresa Jackson, a student at Fredonia State College, replacing Dorothy Hill as Millie Davis. More than making up The closely-knit cast will rely heavily on the work of its stage manager, Karen Chamberlain, and production manager, Michael Hill, both of whom were superlative in taking on more than their share to make up for a weak technical crew. Congratulations on the success of the May run and best wishes for the summer run were sent in a letter from Alice Childress. Childress wrote Trouble In Mind in 1955, setting the drama in 1957 on Broadway during rehearsal for a play about the civil rights movement entitled Chaos In Bellville. Chaos features the usual stereotyped roles for blacks, even while being labelled "ahead of its time." Despite the controversial subject matter, it still features a plantation owner as the lead character and "tenant farmers" with lines like "Bless your soul, you just one of God's golden-haired little angels." Lorna Hill plays Willetta Mayer, who has acted in dozens of these type of roles and is determined to break the mold and play some genuine characters. Al Manners (Chuck Fadel), the director, tells her to "relate" and "justify." None of the other actors are really on her side. Her conflict with Manners brings out many truths some funny and some sad until finally everyone sees the truth about each other. Trouble In Mind, under the direction of Lorna Hill, is an "actor's play." There are no special props, scenery, or lighting tricks to distract alone because of its cast, and audiences. The play as such stands specifically because of the performances of Hill, Fadel and Robinson, who provide the bulk of the drama and entertainment. Trouble In Mind opens tonight at 8, running through Sunday, June 13, and June 18-20, at Pfeifer (Courtyard) Theater. Tickets are available at Norton or at the door. , — — Page eight . The Spectrum .

For the straight poop, walk into any "children's" film and look at the audience. If the kids it, it's not enjoying and the adults aren't, if working, either, it's a disaster. The best of "kids' art" appeals to adults as strongly as to kids, though there are some aspects that will appeal to the adult and not the kid (and Otrce-versa), they deal with imagination and emotion that's elementary enough for a child, and true enough for anyone.

Their influences are many. Slightly reminiscent of the defunct English jazz-rock group. If, in places, and of Klaus Doldinger's Passport in others, and even of the sax-dominated period of King Crimson, Cordon Bleu is unique in that it contains relatively few vocals and almost no electric guitar. Bassist Guus Willemse, who pinch-hits in both these areas, seems to be most at home on his primary instrument, which he handles with a flair many mainstream rock players would admire. His vocals (when present) are never heard without the benefit of a backup chorus, and thj sound is similar to that of Pink Floyd's light, innocuous harmonies, Waters and Wright pretty but unimpressive. Willemse's electric guitar playing is even more understated, almost solely used in unison with Barlage's sax In the two cuts on which it appears.

It seems a shame to say that Rumplestiltskin's Resolve is enjoyable only because of the artist's choice of studio musicians, but it's true. Anyway, it has gotten me listening to Phillips again, and perhaps it will do the same to cither former or potential fans. Better listen quick though, because it won't be long before Robinson leaves to "pursue a solo career" and we all know from past experience (with folks like Rick Wakeman) what that will sound like. John Dinican - sax lines, many of which sound like, retakes of Chris Wood's solos for Traffic, are not the most inventive in the world. Ennes' keyboards are Solution's only chordal component and as such are used excellently. Extremely lush mixtures of organ, piano and string synthesizer give Cordon Bleu the rich ambience of many of Europe's "classical" rock groups and this, combined with their forceful jazz rhythm section, is probably what makes the album enjoyable. Hans Waterman, possibly the most techmbally adept member of Solution, lends a touch of fire to everything on Cordon Bleu, and his ease of communication and cooperation* with bassist Willemse indicates years of experience. It has been said that lately the only significant difference between "progressive'' rock and "electric" jazz is in the rhythm section. If this is true, then Solution must surely be a jazz group; although if rated by their improvisational skills, they would come up as a second-rate one. When viewed as a rock group, however, they come up with a clean if ohty<for their nice arrangements and lack of ear-jarring guitar or synthesizer breaks. I won't say that Cordon Bleu is an album everyone should rush out and buy, but I do know that at least a few people out there share a taste for this kind of music. If you are fond of any of the groups I've-mentioned their music is akin to, or if you have a predisposition towards the soundtracks from late-1960's spy movies, you will like Solution.

"Persephassa" for six percussionists placed around the audience, the audience's chairs set in a random fashion allowing no exclusive front or back to the proceedings, the music panning around them. "Eonta" for piano and movable brass; choir, audience seating brought back to normal and the performers played in front. Brilliant piano playing by Joseph Kubera and both pieces were under the excellent baton of Jan Williams a highly seductive evening. June 2, exceptionally demanding solo pieces. "Saih 1" by Paul Gutama Soegijo performed with total concerted effort by Eberhard Blum on bass flute; "Discours 111" by Vinko Globokar amplified and prerecorded oboe playing by Nora Post; the American premiere of Iannis Xenakis's "Psappha" for solo percussionist like other works of Xenakis this piece changes timbre by sections and then concentrates contrast/seduction within that color, equalling a seduction contrast/seduction format. Donald Knaack's performance of Wednesday night, I feel, did not capture this, it was a lack luster rendition. June 3, The Kronos Quartet, a young string quartet with a new violaist performed differing and difficult pieces by festival featured composers: Xenakis's "ST/4,'' in which the first violinist's string broke but was replaced quickly and the tension of the piece was unbroken; "Structures for String Quartet" by Morton Feldman a delicate whisp of a piece which allows and obtained transient sounds from around the hall and nearby practice rooms; "llliac Suite" by Lejaren Hiller was the first experiment ever using a computer to order notes in such a way as is that to sound exactly like the playful style of Lejaren Hiller programable?; the second half of the concert was taken up with George Crumb's "Black Angels" for amplified string quartet, assorted the volume levels on the percussion and tuned water glasses amplifiers were extreme, the performance lacked polish but the excitement of the piece transcended everything, like the devil coming through in all of us! June 4, Morton Feldman evening featuring "Instruments 1" and the world premiere of "Instruments 11" a competent and controlled performance by the Creative Associates exposed the beauty of individual sonorities, though I must admit I love Feldman's ostinatos and I questioned (and enjoyed) a constant ticking-like sound throughout the evening.

Lockwood’s Joyce Collection is known throughout the world for its holdings. Seventy-five (nearly all) of Joyce’s notbooks for Finnegan’s Wake, photographs, portraits of Joyce and his family and friends, manuscripts, first editions, eyeglasses, walkingsticks and more are included. Out of this array, Thomas Connolly, professor of English, and K.C. Gay, curator of the Poetry Collection, have mounted an exhibition illuminating Joyce’s writing habits and endless editing. Excruciatingly apparent is the scholar’s dilmma in approaching the manuscripts and notebooks. Not only was Joyce’s hand almost illegible, but his habit was to “harvest” phrases and paragraphs from notes to manuscripts and cross over each bit, with crayons of different colors. “Scribbledehobble,” Joyce’s largest manuscript for Finnegan’s Wake, is on view and illustrates the crayoning device. • , slowly engulfing setbacks.

Spitzberg’s report to Ketter argued that both the majority and minority Committee reports were essentially the same. He criticized the leadership and faculty of Social Sciences College, saying that the chief administrative officer (Stein) “has proven to be less than vigorous in his leadership.” He claimed that the College is essentially the same as it was prior, to chartering. Spitzberg„ aJso said that he asked for written documentation of the competence of College instructors, and asserted that with the exception of two instructors, Social!Sciences College was unable to meet this requirement. He added that the documentation for many Social Sciences College instructors lased on brief consisted of ilty affiliated interviews will found highly with the Colle] >st instructors inadequate.

Although such an approach, through its potential provocation of student reaction could serve as a useful pedagogical device, sub-committee members felt that it was overutilized and, more often than not, distorted or ignored facts. Indeed, the major concern of most of the members of our entire Committee was that in the rush to emphasize and reinforce a particular theoretical orientation to our society or societies in general, critical scholarship could easily give way to glib generalizations, supported by emotion, and in defiance of data. Concern w; over the lad uncertain quali of the instruct! assigned to remains uncle; assignments addition, instructor of demonstrated qualifications,” Spitzberg charged. “I believe that a College committed to radical political thought in the Marxist tradition contributes to the diversity of this University, and that its existence is a significant contribution to the academic freedom of the campus he asserted. But, Spitzberg added that he believes the transformation necessary to maintain Social Sciences College is unlikely to be successfully carried out, thus explaining his stand that the College be disbanded. Spitzberg urged Ketter to allow Social Sciences College to file a detailed restructuring plan (original deadline: June 8), to include completely new leadership, elimination of all old courses and instructors, and submission of a new list of approved courses and instructors. “Should this plan not be satisfactory and should it not involve substantial regular faculty participation in day-to-day administration, teaching, and decision-making with an in graduate accompanying reduction student dominance of the College’s life, of the then the recommendation should be minority Committee Chartering followed and the College terminated.” Spitzberg added that he is currently conferring with faculty members and graduate students in attempts to devise a restructuring plan. Stein charged that Spitzberg did not consult him in regard to any of the important decisions or policies of the instructors in difficult to make in the absence of complete and current resumes.

Stein also said that the report was only an opinion expressed by the Committee, and although he disagrees with them, the Committee members are entitled to their beliefs. “This University is an authoritarian system; Ketter is responsible for it and everyone else serves only in an advisory capacity,” he charged. Continual harassment Stein complained that the College had been the subject of continual harassment and perpetual review by Administration officials. “I’m damn sick and tired of this harassment, and 1 wish that the matter would be finally resolved,” he protested. Senate Chairman Former Faculty a vocal critic of the George Hochfield, week’s Reporter, “I said last -in Colleges, the as one of the Colleges now regard to genuine major stumbling blocks educational experimentation on this campus.” the Colleges as They are like amoeba, continually recreating a debased version of what the departments do.” With the exception of Vico, he said the Colleges have become a target for “gaff” courses. He called for more Faculty Senate control through “a strong faculty committee to review once and for all the question of whether the Colleges should continue to have a teaching function.” He refused to comment on the CCRC report. classified “educational schlock. Hochfield led fifrom pa ige 2— Drop-In counseling — terms whereas the response to the second criticism was the more feeble justification that when a discussion or presentation had run it's course, the class would end. However, to the credit of many of the faculty participants in the College, considerable time is spent with students, in academic pursuits, outside of regularly scheduled class time. I. Future Plans Members of the College’s Executive Committee are aware of most of the College’s deficiencies, but do not yet appear ready to offer a set of concrete plans for the future. In part, this may be due to the lack of vigorous leadership on the part of the Master and to uncertainties about who will replace Professor Stein upon his resignation at the end of May, 1976. Looking to the future is also difficult because of the dearth of University faculty who have become significantly involved with the academic affairs of the College. College representatives plan a concerted effort to invite more participation from other segments of the University, which would then them with the provide interdisciplinary base essential to the pursuit of their less traditional methods of analyzing societal problems. J. Vote The voting members of the Colleges Chartering Committee were requested to select one of three recommendations relating to the future of Social Sciences College. The three options were: 1. removal of provisional and approval granting of unconditional approval through December 31,1976; 2. continuation of provisional approval through December 31, 1976; 3. revocation of provisional approval and discontinuation. the offer which would have meant paying back 25 percent of the losses so not to interfere with the normal operations of the pub Six votes were cast for for an entire year.

Call Feature Editor Students with a Bachelor of Art in Psychology may be found in a larger range of graduate and professional programs than those from any other undergraduate discipline in the social sciences. It was the only social science department which saw 1974 and 1975 graduates continue in such professional programs as law, medicine, dentistry and business, as well as a number of graduate departments, including library science, sociology, philosophy, english and architecture. According to questionnaire responses from 47 graduating seniors in the Psychplogy department, 64 percent plan to continue their education in the fall. Of those 25 who have finalized plans for entering graduate and professional programs next year, leas than half (44 percent) are entering graduate the field of psychology. An programs in undergraduate major in phychology may thus provide a springboard to a variety of career opportunities. The number staying in the field is up from last year’s. Figures from the University Placement and Career Guidance office indicated that only 22 percent of those 1975 graduates continuing their education were entering psychology graduate programs. Data from the previous year (1974) showed 32 percent were pursuing higher degrees within the field of psychology, the majority in public educational facilities. Acceptances of psychology majors from this University to graduate programs is high. 77 percent of the applicants have definitely been accepted as of early spring and another 18 percent wait-listed or waiting for financial aid. Only 7 percent were not accepted to any programs of their choice. Diverse interests This year’s psychology graduates also have diverse interests.

In addition, there were applications to programs in library science, business, anthropology and sociology. 25 percent of the graduates have no immediate educational plans for next fall. Half of these graduates expressed an interest in attending graduate or professional school at some point in the future, predominantly social work and counseling. Others indicated an emphasis in some area other than psychology, such as education. Within the field of psychology the most popular graduate program was counseling. 50 percent of the applicants to psychology graduate departments were to this area.

Another 25 percent of the psychology school applications were to developmental psychology departments and the remainder (3) were to clinical and cognitive areas. Financial aid 35 percent of graduating psychology seniors had been offered some form of financial aid at the time of the survey, while others were still waiting to hear. Among those going on in a psychology program, 55 percent were given some form of assistance, including fellowships or tuition waivers. Comments by the accepted students point up the importance of involvement in research during undergraduate years as crucial to (heir admittance into graduate schools. The differences in undergraduate performances between those going directly to graduate school and those with no immediate educational prospects are slight. The mean overall grade point average (gpa) of those entering school in the fall is 3.45. The mean psychology gpa is 3.47. Both the overall and psychology gpa of those not attending graduate school is 3.40. Both groups have equal experience with regard to research and volunteer work; about 70 percent of each group have been involved with one or the other or both. In general, there is little difference between the credentials of those continuing on in the fall and those with no immediate plans. This indicates that reasons other than scholastic record are determining what sort of plans a graduate makes. — • 5 WEST NORTHRUP PLACE around — Diverse interests of psych grads is reflected in survey by Nancy Ellett FURNITURE Whole apartment; table, couch, chairs, .mattresses, etc. Also dishes.

Of them, less than half plan to remain in the field of psychology. Almost one-third took graduate record exams in preparation for it. If this poll is representative of the other academic areas, it may be concluded that there is a general trend toward application of undergraduate skills toward other fields of endeavor following graduation. Diminishing financial aid for graduate students and the more stringent graduate admissions criteria possibly have combined to discourage students from considering graduate careers in psychology, although the figures show that 91 percent of those who applied for such'a program were accepted to at least one.

The burden of passing the budget fell to the Executive Committee after the Assembly’s final meeting April 30 was students disrupted by the SA Finance protesting ConvjTuttee’s recommended allocation to the Black Student ynion (BSD), which cut $10,100 from last year’s budget. Although the budget had not been officially released at press time, pending approval from the Office of Student Affairs, an SA source provided the following approximate figures: New York Public Interest Research Group (NYP1RG) 522,000, down $3000 from last year and $7500 more than was originally recommended by the Finance Committee; Action Community Corps (CAC) $20,000, down $12,000 from last year and $3000 more than was originally recommended by the Finance Committee; $14,555, down Legal Aid Executive — - — $5000 from last year and the same amount originally recommended "by the Finance Committee Sunshine House $8210, down $1000 from last year and mbre than $60 originally recommended by the Finance -* Committee; Black Student Union (BSU) $25,000, down $4900 from last - year and $5000 more than was originally recommended by the Finance Committee; PODER $13,000, down $1000 from last year and $3000 more than was originally allocated by the Finance Committee; Jewish Student Union (JSU) $9000, up $2000 from last year and $4600 more than, was allocated originally by the Finance Committee. - — Coffee break $51,0(30 was Within SA, allocated for office staff salaries, $13,400 to activities, down $600 from last year and S4400 more than the Finance Committee’s figure.

This $600 increase was allocated specifically for him to conduct a budgetary priorities survey. The Executive Committee meeting scheduled for May 24 was never officially convened, according to SA President Steve Schwartz. Several students pushed passed Schwartz into the room where the meeting was to take place, and he immediately dismissed the members claiming "under those conditions a reasonable budget could not be passed.” One SA official charged that several members of the BSU entered the office and caused minor damage, spilling coffee and coke on desks and floors, and throwing mail into the garbage Steve Schwartz can All-nighter The Executive Committee met later that night “off-campus" location from 7 to 10 p.m. The meeting-wits recessed until II. at another location.

At p ress , t ime, no representatives of the BSU were available to comment. Schwartz the emphasized budget was very fair in its dispersal of funds, but added “it was most unfortunate that we had to go behind closed doors and rely solely on written statements from the clubs instead of hearing their representatives present arguments for funding.” Copies of the completed budget should be available to all organizations by mid-June. /Payment default forces shut-down at CUNY the same rates as those in SUNY would mean annual charges of $750 for underclassmen and $900 for juniors and by Laura Bartlett Managing. Editor After defaulting on its faculty payroll last Friday, leaving the academic future of 250,000 students in danger, the City University of New York (CUNY) is minus its expected to reopen this week tuition md open traditional free admissions policies A tuition, at levels currently charged to students in the State University (SUNY) system, was expected to be imposed by the State Board of Higher Education Tuesday night. Sources close to the Board said that a series of token conditions would be attached. Free higher education in New York City dates back to 1847. Although a CUNY aid package was defeated in the legislature Friday, forcing the system’s 20 institutions to close with almost 40,000 seniors midway through final examinations, enough financial aid to allow CUNY to remain solvent through the next academic year was expected to be provided by the legislature if the tuition increase is imposed. — Cutbacks The imposition of tuition next fall at seniors Friday’s missed payroll was- the first time a City agency was compelled to default since its financial problems came to a head earlier this year. In March, as part of an effort to control spending, the City put the CUNY monthly spending on limitations, but these were not enforced as funds were advanced from future month’s budgets. In April, CUNY itself made some effort to cut back on spending. Following CUNY Chancellor J. Kibbee’s Robert recommendations for belt-tightening, the Board came up with its own plan, which even then included a recommendation for the imposition of tuition. The series of changes recommended by the Board also included limiting admission to CUNY senior colleges to those in the top one-third of their high school graduating class, or with a grade average of 80 or better, and limiting admission to community colleges to those in the top three-fourths of their class or with a grade average of 70 or better. Both these stipulations would put an end to CUNY’s traditional open admission policy, although its requirements much more liberal than SUNY’s. Also recommended was the merger of four CUNY campuses into two, and the elimination of several degree programs, effective September 1. Kibbee was directed by the Board' to recommend further elimination of programs that appear to be weak, duplicate or that cannot be justified by student demand. Geographic distribution of programs in the system’s centers was also a concern of the Board. CUNY should offer a wide range of programs, but not necessarily at all its locations, they said. Concerning the 30,000 to 40,000 students scheduled to graduate this week, Kibbee told reporters “they are not in danger of not graduating eventually.” According tp a spokesperson from the CUNY student government, the United Student Senate (USS), a massive student demonstration to protest the imposition of tuition is being planned, but details were not yet available. �The Eternal Return, American style Dreamers relive history as mythic bubble bursts We have given the voyage of family, friends and goods for the the MayPower a major role in our open road? interpretation of the dream: the The 1970’s stand to the 1960’s bold venture Westward in search /Myth and history a We were faced with somewhat as the 1930’s were to of freedom and then the signing a blueprint comparable Westering impulse the 1920’s: retrenchment is to of the “compact” liberation as Bust was to Boom. for the future.

Last week, a young British woman who spent five years in an Indian jail came to the University with another analysis: India under Indira Ghandi never really was a democracy, and has been rife with political repression of the- most blatant kind for years before the June emergency.

Box 727, Radio Station New York, N.Y. 10019 graduate Mary Tyler speaks of the corruption in India today The political repression of Indira Ghandi’s India is now well known in America. Since her declaration of a state of emergency last June 26, giving herself full dictatorial powers, courage in the American media has been extensive. Most Americans are therefore familiar with reports from India of mass arrests, rigid press censorship, and of constitutional suspension rights. And all this, we now know, was done to save democracy, and in the hope it would not last long. Much attention had been given to Mrs. Ghandi’s conviction last Jtfne 12 by the High Court of Aiiahbad of finding her campaign manager in the 1971 national election frorft the public payroll. It seemed as if the prime minister of what was then often called the world’s most popular democracy (600 million people) would be forced from office for violations of an elections law, in a race most observers agree she would have won easily, anyway.

Friday, 4 June 1976 . The Spectrum . Page three �EditPrial A eulogy So far this year, we have seen tuition increased at the State University and imposed at the City University in similar fashion; Governor Carey has submitted a budget which already includes revenues to be realized from tuition levels expected to be set by the respective University governing panel, thus saving himself from the politically unpalatable act of imposing or increasing the tuitions himself. Carey has an excellent sense of administrative inevitability. Faced with funding deficits if they did not comply, the State University Board of Trustees meekly passed the tuition increase. The Board of Higher Education, which governs City University, in contrast, saw five of its members, including Chairman Alfred A. Giardino, resign in protest. But tuition was finally imposed by a reconstituted ending a tradition that dates to 1847. We mourn the passing of free tuition at the City University because it continues the dangerous trend of sacrificing education in the name of the new economic consciousness of restraint. This is a grave error. Even in a contracted economy, education must be held above other priorities for reasons that are obvious: a truly free, equalitarian society depends on equal opportunity, and equal opportunity in modern, post-industrial societies, is nothing less than equal opportunity to obtain an education. Without that guarantee, with work and middle class families now being priced out of public education, and with increased competition for available tuition assistance monies, we can only fall short of a committment to an educated, open country. • The politicians have correctly sensed how much their constituencies abhor the now greatly increased cost of sending their children to school. Students, many of whom are sending themselves to college, can only become embittered at the prospect of having to shell out hundreds of dollars more a year for school. Maybe not being able to attend at all. Disheartened by the cutbacks and shutdown at the City University, applications for the fall semester there are already down by 10,000. It was thought that many City University students would instead attend a State University branch; however, State University enrollments have peaked, and it is doubtful that very many more New York City residents will find their way into SUNY. It was also intended that some of those who formerly would have gone to City will now enroll at private schools. This only continues the folly of bolstering the state's private colleges by dismantling the public ones. One last thought: the most likely consequence of the City University financial crisis is the eventual formation of a state policy to fund the City University at the same levels as the State University. Without fully knowing the final details of parity funding, we wish to caution against an increased committment to the City University which would be balanced by a decreased committment to the State University. This might possibly lead to a rivalry in seeking state funds, which would be truly unfortunate. Fiscal responsibility is necessary. Saving on education is the wrong road to that goal.

People gawking. There is a distant rhythmic throbbing, the band, - “Hail to the Chief!” Correspondents move from club car to platform and with easy familiarity swing back the iron doors and release the floor catch Which brings up the iron plate above the steps. Jump off at the band; where the band is the crowd is and that’s where the engineer will halt the rear platform. The crowd stretches back a block and a half. Truman starts talking; which one will it be this about Grandfather Young and the covered time wagon? No, this time after a brief plug for a federal 28 years ago health insurance program (Imagine! Truman was urging it and still we alone of modern nations don’t have it) he is telling unaffectedly of his great romance with The Boss: “She was five and I was six. 1 sat in front of her, and now and then she used to tap me over the head with a - - - ruler.” (At Los Angeles, when he left the train, a million people saw him; pity he was going to lose; all t|je polls showed Dewey way ahead.) The reporter at a whistle stop jumped off the moving steps, raced the slowing train down the roped platform to the crowd around the band, had his yellow Western Union page against the dusty side of the Ferdinand Magellan at the first yell of the throng when the President appeared and was ready for the climax with the President spacing his words and chip-chopping with his hands, for the party that gave emphasis, “I am talking us that no-account do-nothing Republican Eightieth Congress...” “Give ’em hell, Harry!” somebody shouts. The whistle toots four dimes. “Western, Western. Western!’’ yells the reporter tossing the hasty copy to a messenger boy like throwing a fish to a gull. Away we go.

University women To the Editor The following resolution was'passed at the May meeting of the Organization for University Women The Organization for University Women recognizes that cutbacks at the State University of New York at Buffalo are likely to jeopardize any recent gains in the employment of women and minority persons at this institution. At the same time that we demand continued affirmative action hiring, we assert that the women of this University shall not be pitted against other employees in the struggle to keep jobs. Therefore, we urge.that all personnel cutbacks in this institution be resisted. To this end, we join those other units of the University which have condemned the practice of termination for budgetary reasons and for the purposes of resource reallocation. Organization for University Women �r W. and Me' Uniruths in film injurious to star's reputation by Bill Maraschiello Arts Editor When you consider the multitude of fascinating foitrles, quirks, and oddities that made up the -life and character of W.C. Fields, it's difficult not to wonder why film biography, W.C. Fields and Me, didn't the Great to simply tell the truth. It would have been much decide more entertaining, and' much less injurious to Fields' reputation, if it had. Fields' own work speaks far more eloquently in its own behalf than I could; his blend of transparent bluster, longsuffering-misanthropy (he never.hit a baby unless the toddler attacked him first), and impeccable comic instinct made him the most legendary comedian of the sound cinema. A runaway at eleven, he became the most famous (and funniest) juggler in the world by the tirpe he was a Career he tossed aside for what proved to twenty-one be even greater renown as a star of the Ziegfeld Follies and musical comedy. He later dumped this calling as well to drive crosscountry to California (reportedly with 350 thousand-dpllar bills pinned to his coat lining) and '[continue the film work he started in New York. After a brief lean period, he' hit his screen stride, and remained a star for the rest of his life. full-fledged — mo«|e Butterfingers All well and good. But PV.C. Fields and Me juggles the Fteldsian cirriculum vitae as prodigiously as W.C. did cigar boxes and top hats, and a fraction as dexterously. Fields, whose comedy was always scrupulously clean, is shown being'canned by Ziegfeld for- refusing to dean up a sketch a vulgar, unfunny one which Fields never in fact and cleaned out by a shady investment performed advisor. More crippling than any of this, all of which is totally untrue, is the'fypVs contention that Fields was a sodden drunk whose mind and body were long ravaged by the bottle, to which he turned out of a gnawing loneliness. To he was a lifelong him, "happiness meant quiet insomniac and booze was, above all, a sedative. His memory was faultless, though he often used assumed forgetfulness to dodge having to play humorless lines. According to Mack Sennet, in fact. Fields' timing and skill were better when he was drinking than not. — — - Gin and sympathy Why the change? An important clue is realizing that women, as a whole, have never cared much for-Fields — Rod Steiger as since his screen wives were an endless succession of harpies, who served him cold toast at breakfast and insults at night. The decision was to make Fields sympathetic by converting him into a bulb-nosed reincarnation of Days of Wine and Roses, which he emphatically was not. K But the film still has some entertainment value, above all because of Rod Steiger, who turns in, against all odds, a magnificent portrayal of Fields. Besides looking startlingly like him, thanks to an exemplary makeup job, Stieger hits precisely the right tones of pomposity and sheepish sentiment. And the events that did indeed take place, like his famous spiking of Baby LeRoy's bottle with a shot from his own, ring delightfully true. The "Me" in the title is Carlotta Monti, not only one of Fields’ few surviving friends, but also one of his closest. She was also his mistress, companion, and nurse for some fourteen years. (Ms. Monti was consultant to the film, making the wholesale fabrication all the more inexcusable.) As Carlotta, Valerie Perrine is best when understandbaly, W.C. Fields she's most sincere, she and Steiger showing sympathy an affecting both as characters and actors. What's so funny? Bob Merrill's screenply, based on Monti's book, is currently, voguish scatological stuffed with and body-function jokes, at the expense of any expositions of Fields' own genius. It's only in what Steiger provides in insight that we see any glimmerings of Fields' skill as a clown which is the reason that the film was made in the first place. Perhaps the whole tone of the film can be summed up with the comment that the life of Fields was directed by Arthur Hiller, director of Love Story.

RECORDS Todd Rundgren, Faithful (Bearsville) The advent of summer heralds the release of Faithful. Faithful Todd Rundgren's latest outing revels in Todd's facility to expand in a score of disparate directions and yet never slip or falter. The music is miraculously welded into a Cohesive whole by Rundgren's muse. Some rock purists might be inclined to dismiss the album as an unimaginative, rehash of seminal songs of the sixties, or just another artist paying homage to his roots while the audience -mQst squirm and suffer through his lame indulgences. What these purists neglect to bring into ken, beside their misplaced sacrosanct concern for rock classics, is the attitude and philosophy Todd is attempting to fashion and forge on Faithful. The first side is an anthology of tunes that influenced Todd and have a distinct message of what rock music can become. The album title bespeaks the fact that Todd has chosen to perform the songs exactly in their original context and form. The selection of material performed reveals a close affinity with what Rundgren has done with his music. Todd's music has challenged the, prevalent preconception of rock as meaningless AM commercialized fodder for moronic, malevolent adolescents preoccupied with thstant gratification, a wonder drug to cure acne, and the number of nimble cuties laid with the next three-month time span. The Runt is more interested in developing and mutating his music with a healthy injection of the prophetic and even the educational. Rundgren doesn't see why his music can't carry the baggage of a cogent message as well as being humorous, toughing and just plain entertaining. Perhaps this stems from his own psychic matrix, which is more attracted by the consciousness raising aspects and possibilities of his music than the vacuity of a pop star's life. His exact replications of "Rain", "Strawberry Fields Forever", "If Six Was Nine", "Good Vibrations", "Most Likely You Go Your Way and I'll Go Mine", and "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago", reflect Todd's leanings toward production and songs that ask their audiences to reconsider Assumptions about their lives whether it be conformity or apathy. But for those bent on apathy and conformity the side provides the perfect soundtrack to complete an outdoors summer soiree; curling your toes around the dandelions, sipping mint juleps while ponderously peering and clouds, the soft cumulous contemplating hoodwinking your naive neighbors into thinking it really is Bobby Dylan and the Beach Boys. Either way the collection of tunes served up by Todd have their purpose and an enjoyable one at that. But Faithful soars on albatross wings because — of the Rundgren originals. Side two is crammed with six dandies that clock in at over 27 minutes. The adage, "more is better" seems to hold true most of the time when Todd assembles his albums. The originals verify and reinforce the contention that he is faithful to the transcendental vision that marks the best of rock music. All the originals succeed in being both musically compelling and lyrically searching. "Black and White" is a churning powerhouse of a rocker lamenting the fact that the visionary forces of the music of the sixties have heeded. The rousing choruses ring out against the alleged changes which the sixties supposedly brought about were reformist at best and at worst led to a reactionary backlash. "Love of the Comrtrwi Man" is an eloquent ballad concerned with the /iope of recapturing a sense of community. "When I Pray" is a tongue-in-cheek chant about man's reliance on the cosmic father rather than their own capatilities. Its comical yet gripping choral resounds with the cries of the multitudes pressed within the confining cathedral walls of organized religion. s "Cliche" and "The Verb 'To Love' are infectious, well produced numbers. Todd's critical eye zooms in the words that people pass off as emotion yet .have np inkling of the emotions tied to the words. The sphgs enable Rundgren to exhibit his blue-eyed Phiiw soul background. Gambel and Huff are probably eating their hearts out. "Cliche" 's harpsichord and "To Love" 's dreamy cocktail piano effectively highlight Roger Powell's keyboard abilities. Finally "Boogies (hlamburger Hell)" closes the album and once again Todd is off to the races, brandishing a guitar so hot it creates an inferno. But the Runt isn't too busy rocking to impart a broadside at the mammouth junk food industry. Todd realizes you are what you eat. The song is his Statement to cbunteract the near 50 million dollar advertising onslaught that McDonald's alone saturates the media with. Faithful reconfirms Rundgren's ability to create music with a feel, flow and verve that only his fecund and bohemian mind could produce. Todd's aspirations aren't confined to music. He forsees his leaving music upon reaching the magical age of 30. Rundgren has even talked about the possibility of running for the Presidency. -Ironically enough, he becomes eligible to run for the office in 1984. If his political platform makes half the sense his music does I'll stuff ballots for him. Faithful is an affirmatien of Rundgren's musical" ah aesthetic that seeks out knowledge and love and is characterized by its courage and vision.

The basic premise of all three stories is quite simple, and quite frightening in its very simplicity: the conception and creation of the International Data Bank. Every fact about every person is to be entered on tape, with privacy blocks to prevent unauthorized access. Every medical case would be recorded as well as every business transaction. Every home a person ever lived in, every job ever held, every dime ever spent would all be on fife. But then our ambitious protagonist spoke with a friend who had peripheral connections with the Mafia who laughed at his enthusiasm and idealism, and told him that no one knew how much money there was in the world. No one had yet managed to crack Switzerland, and if they did, other places could be found. No one knows how many unregistered vessels of every kind there are. All medical reports might not be filed, especially if the doctor does not want to pay taxes on the money received. He had forgotten the human factor. Disillusioned, he went to the card file, removedjhis own cards, due to be entered next week, and tore them up. He found a-tiny, secluded little place in the north Atlantic, and built himself a private programming location. He can now place any information into the Data Bank that he wants. Now he works under aliases for Don Walsh, and is paid ridiculously huge sums of money from Walsh's firm, the second largest detective agency in the world, for solving cases they could not. He is, he insists, expert in nothing but staying alive, but he knows a lot about a lot of things, and all the knowledge in the World therefore more affecting, if not as explosively, Data Bank is his for the asking. absurdly effective.

Page seven . �Nazareth resurrects interest in rock and roll All right. I know boogie rock is supposed to be on its downfall. I hold creed in the fact that Nazareth has never truly given the United States consistent pop top-forty music. Nazareth record sales have been crucified because !of that. I thought Dan McCafferty's vocals were too desultory in tone for the ear to keep pace with. I still believe that the loud thunder trained by Manny Charlton's fine guitar drowns out the unique yelling lyric pitch of McCafferty's interpretation. On record, that is. When Nazareth comes alive and transforms rock and roll to true artistry you can forget Kiss, you can dispose of J. Ceils, and you can use your last Bad Company record as a frisbee. All these late second generation rock bands have, or had, their good points in the boogie genre. But as Nazareth plays their heart out on stage, and roll heavy metal -rock becomes fresh,' versatile, and most importantly, fun. the any Ask of fifteen-hundred-plus audience at last Century the Theatre Wednesday evening.

I thank him. He nods. It's that kind of simbiotic evening. It's a relationship where the band is the audience and the audience makes the band. They're Nazareth and they are here. Playing second bill was the Earl Slick Band; Slick is an old cronie of David Bowie's who has one or two albums on the market. If a man christens his band with his name, one would think he could play a good guitar. Slick thinks he can and is overly obnoxious in persevering to prove it. Every song is a medley of guitar solos which are tedious and unflattering in their poor facsimile of Hendrix or Beck via the use of reverb and feedback. The band is lethargic and redundant but is shrewd and er, ah, "slick" enough to fool some of the teeny-boppers in the crowd into clapping and stomping for an encore. —Harold Goldberg received. loud.

For years the dominant members of the English Rand Family, these two musicians delighted rock critics and FM deejays (but few other people) with several unorthodox albums, which can only be termed as. "vaudeville rock". Reaching a creative peak with Fearless and Bandstand, Family disbanded in or around 1974 due to a general lack of public interest (particularly on this side of the Atlantic). Chapman and Whitney soon released an entitled undistinguished .solo LP Streetwalkers, then joined with ex-Jeff Beck Group vocalist Bob Tench (now primarily playing rhythm guitar) to form a band of the same name. Red Card, Streetwalkers' second album, is another the and ' disappointing attempt at mixing loud, guitar-oriented rock and R&B vocal styles, which only really succeeds during its few subtle moments. Although there are a few hints at the former style of Family (the on "Decadence Code", electric twelve-string and vocal on "Hole in Your Pocket), the Streetwalker sound does not approach that of its'parent group for all-around creativity and versatility. For some reason, the songwriting talents of Chapman and Whitney (joined by Tench for three sOngs);seems to have and the lyrics here, deal mostly with debauchery and other boozing, manifestations of machismo. , The instrumental arrangements, supplemented by Whitney and Tench on keyboards, are thoyghtfully worked out and occasionally brilliant .(as on "Run for Cover"),'but the Streetwalkers sorely miss the assistance of Poli Palmer, Family's keyboard man and arranger extraordinaire. Also missing from Red Card are tfie acoustic songs and delicate harmonies which were another key factor in the aesthetic appeal of Family, Chapman's lead vocals, however, are surprisingly restrained here; the raspy, bleating screams which scared away so many potential Family fans are kept to a minimum. Unfortunately, the Fripp and Eno, Evening Star (Antilles) Robert Fripp, enigmatic mentor of King Crimson and thus perhaps the greatest influence in progressive rock, has returned. j It was he who introduced the mellotrop as a major instrument into the realm of rock music, and after seeing it become the foundation of an entire style, he abandoned it almost completely in an effort to return the guitar to its rightful place in music. In doing so, he developed a unique, angular style, somewhat closer to jazz than to rock, but more "Frippian" than anything else. Now, a year and half after the demise of King Crimson, he is back, in a collaboration with Brian Eno, an equally unusual keyboard artist. Fripp stopped The main reason composing and performing had something to do with "taking too much energy'from the universe and not putting enough back." If this trend continued, the universe would be doomed, its end coming in the 1980's. In retiring, he hoped to reverse or at least restrain this trend. So then, why did he come back? Couldn't he stay away from performing, or has he discarded his theories? If he hasn't, how will his convictions affect his music? Will he try te compose, or will he act as an instrumentalist for Eno's ideas? Will he let Eno run the whole show? Tm But enough of speculation, supposed to be doing a record review. Plotel and drummer Nicko. "Crazy Charade", a ditty about Cleopatra and her asp, is an interesting, though mismatched, union of funky rhythm and a rehashed Family riff (from "It's Only a Movie"). The remaining songs ("Shotgun Messiah", "Me an' Me Horse an' Me Rum", and "Between Us") are, for the most part,'messy attempts at R&B which come nowhere near "Run for Cover" or "Roll Up Roll Up" in sustaining interest. So it seems that Chapman and Whitney's Streetwalkers are at their best when reliving the weirdness of Family, an which these abilities would have dovetailed beautifully: Fripp laying down the basic scaffolding and Eno ornamenting it with carefully chosen sounds and instruments. Such was not to be, because each musician identity has maintained his own throughout the whole album. Thus you can find some parts that sound like Fripp compositions, and some more that sould like Eno compositions, but very few that sound like actual Fripp-Eno collaborations. (Which is strange, since all but one of the songs were written by Fripp and Eno together.) This is rather noticeable on side two: a half hour musical piece entitled "An Index of Metals". It is a pastiche of sounds a collage of instruments layered upon each other. The order is simple: one movement flowing into the next. The movements themselves have no structure; they are just composed of unordered sounds, although you can hear an occasional bass or guitar riff. "Index" is more intruguing than interesting, especially when heard over a set of stereophones, whereby none of the sounds are lost. From the Debussy-like "Wind on Water" to the Eno composition "Wind on Wind", (which sounds like a bunch of fog horns tuning up for a concert, but it's interesting anyway) side one has a bit more variety. It also has the best song on the album; the title track. This is a vintage — Td like to say that Evening Star is a fantastic album, the best thing to be released this year, but I honestly cannot. It is admittedly very good, yet it is not a true dual effort. Fripp is a structuralist; his main concern is the arrangement of notes and not the variety of instruments that can produce them. Eno is pretty much the opposite.. He tends to experiment with tone color and sound layering, while structure is relegated at best to a secondary position. Given their respective talents, Fripp and Eno could have put together something in Page eight . The Spectrum Friday, 4 June 1976 . acoustic" voice once-interesting melodies make Chapman's limitations all too apparent: Whitney's electric guitar playing, much moie predominant than before, has improved, albeit in the direction of hard rock, as the' blazing solo on Otis Blackwell's "Daddy Rolling Stone" attests to. "Roll Up Roll Up", one of Red Card's better (and most Family-ish) offerings, features a nice harmony slide guitar break (a new medium for Whitney), as well as excellent, jazzy backup by bassist John objective they probably did not have in mind when forming it. There is no reason in the world that these two should not be able to produce an outstanding album on their own, but they haven't done it yet. Maybe theirs was a Family that should —John Duncan have prayed together. . . Fripp composition. The stage is set by two guitars, one playing a couple of three-note riffs while the other plays a rhythm similar to that heard in "Lament" (a King Crimson song). Within this framewqrk, Fripp glides from one note to another on a different guitar somewhat consonant, sometimes — dissonant, sometimes harmonizing with himself, but never boring. Eno occasionally adds a few simple keyboard note progressions which round the song out perfectly. The brief following track, "Evensong", is also worth noting because it is the closest thing to a Fripp-Eno collaboration on this album. It starts out with Eno repeating a seven note motif on a weird sounding keyboard instrument. Fripp joins in on guitar and keeps adding different sounding riffs until the motif, but not its feeling, is completely obscured. In all, it is quite a pleasant As song. I have said before. Evening Star is a good album, not a great one. This, I believe, is due to the fact that it relies too much on Eno and not enough on Fripp. To most people, this music will probably sound like the soundtrack to some science fiction or avant-garde film, but it should please those whose tastes are esoteric or just plain weird. Fripp and Eno are cultivating a viable offshoot of progressive rock, even if it is mutated almost recognition. —Eugene Zielinski Prodigal Sun f �Sub-Board : - UUAB constitution okayed by Bert Black Staff Writer Spectrum of Sub Board 1 approved a ne\fc constitution for the University Union Activities Board (UUAB) and appointed a Publications Division Director at their May meeting two weeks agoSub Board I is a not-for-profit corporation funded by voluntary contributionsrfrom each of the six student governments. It provides student services through its Norton Hall, Publications, Health Care and UUAB Divisions. Sub Board’s total budget last year topped $350,000. The new UUAB Constitution redefines the relationship between Division personnel and Sub Board by placing “Ultimate responsibility” for all UUAB business on the Division Director, while delegating all responsibility for financial matters to the Business, Manager. These,responsibilities were formerly undefined. The new Constitution, unlike its predecessor, also makes the UUAB standing Committee Chairpersons responsible to the Division Director. Formation of a UUAB Hearing Goard, to meet at least once a semester to review and'discuss division policies, was also approved. Membership will consist of the Sub Board Directors, UUAB’s Division Director and Business Manager, and two UUAB Committee Chairpersons of the Director’s choice. . Controversial appointment The appointment of Williarh Finkelstein as Publications Division Director was approved by only two of the seven voting members present. The other five members abstained after heated discussion of Finkelstein’s qualifications. Student Association (SA) President and Sub Board representative Steve Schwartz expressed reservations about Finkelstein’s ability to get along with people. When Sub Board Treasurer Art Lalonde was asked why the Personnel and Appointments Finkelstein for Committee recommended he had confidence said the Committee appointment, in Finkelstein’s ability to do a large amount of hard work. He indicated that the committee did not have such confidence in former Division Director Marvin Miles, the other applicant under consideration by the board. This led to a proposal by Schwartz that both the appointment be position itself and reviewed in September. Sclwartz noted that the Publications Division Directorship was “a job that hasn’t done anything yet” and whose functions are not yet clearly defined. Revitalization Finkelstein agreed. “It’s a good policy. Periodic review is essential, especially for a position that does not have firmfy established guidelines.” He said his first priority would be to determine the function of his job. In other business, the Directors approved the appointment of Susan Cassuto as UUAB Division Director. A letter from UUAB Dance and Drama co-chairperson Yvonne James was read into the record, expressing disapproval of the Directors failure to appoint Abdullah Wahaab as the Division Director, Hames cited several positions previously held by Wahaab in her letter. In the Health Care Division, Barbara Pientka was appointed Business Manager, and Stephanie Aronow and Jamie Westfall were approved as co-directors of the Human Sexuality Center. A1 Campgana, Division Director since the establishment of the Health Care Division, announced that he will resign as soon as the Directors find a replacement. Sub Board Vice Chairman Mitch Zoler presented a report to the Directors that proposed continuance of the Amherst Campus Division next year as both an informational source and a “facilitator” of Sub Board’s move to the new campus. Applications, will be available until Wednesday in room 214 Norton, for the position. The post is expected to be filled at the next Sub Board meeting on June 10. Sub Board Chairman Jon Roller informed the Board that he has been appointed head of the Parcel B Advisory Board, a group of students, faculty, staff and alumni who will advise the DBF Corporation on developmertt of the new Amherst Campus shopping Threatening skies forced Governor Hugh Carey to forsake his original intentions of an outdoor dedication of the Ellicott Complex and, instead, retreat into the shelter of the Bubble, along with an audience who attended by invitation only.

Their plight, as she explains it, is no better than serfs subsisting on a small plpt of. land owned' by a wealthy corporation, often earning just enough to live from day to day. Laboring in one of India’s rich mineral mines, many workers earn just enough to buy food at inflated prices from a store owned by the mine'company, and return each night to a cardboard and tin shanty, also owned by the company.

The playoffs ended disappointingly for the baseball Bulls this year. After the Bulls beat Princeton 4-2 and St. John’s 4-1, the East Coast Athletic Conference’s double elimination setup meant that all the Bulls had to do was beat St. John’s once more before the Redmen beat Buffalo twice. But that wasn’t as easy as it sounded, since St. John’s entered the tournament at 29-4-1, compared to the Bulls 25-13. The Redmen won twice, 8-1 and 9-3, and advanced to the NCAA Regional Playoffs. The Bulls opened the tournament by jumping on Princeton’s starting pitcher Mark Softy for a run in the first inning. Jim Mary singled and then the (.519 nation’s leading hitter John Buszka pre-tournament) singled, sending Mary to third. A groundout by John Kidd scored Mary. The game remained 1-0 until the fifth when consecutive doubles by the Tigers Glenn Christy and Ed Kuchar tied the game. But in the bottom of the sixth the Bulls broke the game open. Buszka walked, but was forced out at second by'another Kidd grounder. Then designated hitter John Mineo singled and Mike Dixon walked on a 3-2 ’pitch. Bulls’ centerfielder Dan Gorman then hit a sacrifice fly to right, scoring Kidd and Mike Groh executed a perfect hit-and-run play to score Mineo from second. - Fine play Buffalo continued their fine play later that day — — just wanted to say 355 Norton Hall 831-3610 10% discount for students with I.D.’s Mechanics on duty days and We work on Foreign cars also.

Bulls pitcher Jim Riedel was suffering from terrible wildness (12 walks in seven innings); but was unhittable. Riedel even walked four men in a row in the fifth inning, but avoided yielding a run when he picked Eric Restin off third base between the third and fourth walks. Buffalo scored three runs in the ninth, when the Redihen infielders misplayed two bunts and a slow roller. Then Bpszk-a laid down a perfect bunt which St. John’s never hatha chance to mishandle. But Buffalo’s domination seemed to vanish into the night, and the next day they weren’t the same team. The Bulls hitters, which had been leading the nation with a .372 team average, fell silent. The Bulls’ pitchers still had trouble getting the ball over the plate, and every ground ball seemed to take a bad hop. Mary doubled for Buffalo in the first inning, Buszka singled him to third, and Dixon’s sacrifice fly scored the run. And after that, the Bulls were lifeless. They managed' two hits in the next eight innings, as the Redmen’s Tom Raponi retired the last twelve Buffalo batters. St. John’s put the game out of reach in the sixth inning. Their first seven batters reached base, four via walks and three with singles, as they tallied four singles won-loss record in the political school's history.

SA budget to pass without public forum by Laura Bartlett Camput Editor , Y Strife within his department by Marty Schwartz Spectrum Staff Writer The Speech Communication Faculty approved 7 to 4 Monday a no-confidence resolution against Department Chairman. Molefi Asante, and have demanded his immediate resignation. The resolution stated that since the controversy surrounding Asante’s reappointment in October, 1975, Asante “has demonstrated continued contempt and utter disrespect for his faculty and their rights to participation and consultation in academic matters affecting them and the Department.” It also said that Asante has resorted “to libel, harassment, unprofessional behavior and political expediency instead of sound academic judgement.” - . ... .W~ V' The faculty voted on the resolution at a meeting in which Social Science Provost Arthur Butler explained his reasons for cutting a faculty member in the Department. According to one faculty person, the line was lost because of “internal contention” and that the resources could be better utilized in other areas. The faculty member quoted Butler as saying that he would only recommend expansion if the internal contention were resolved, and that it was up to the faculty to get together. Butler reportedly said he “supported Asante, that he appointed him, and that he supports him even more i today.” Professor Charles Petrie said the resolution was passed in frustration by the faculty, at being put in a position of either “toeing the line or being retrenched.” He claimed that the Department has been threatened by Butler and that the provost implied that Asante can make all the decisions if he so chooses. of the grievances have been over academic questions and violations of due process. In one instance involving a senior faculty member, Asante was condemned by a Faculty Senate committee in March for violating due process. The general complaints against Asante stem from the autocractic manner in which he runs the Department, one professor said. Asante has continually by-passed and overruled the Admission and- Standards Committee on appointments of Graduate Assistantships and Graduate Students, and has hired professors without the full faculty ever meeting them or reviewing their credentials, the professor continued. Following the no-confidence vote Monday afternoon,.faculty member Gerald Golhabber, who introduced the resolution, said Asante gave a verbal order to the secretaries not to type any of his [Golhabber’s] papers or run 6ft any of his work. Goldhabber claimed Asante said that “unless ' Wave of retribution Passage of the resolution was a response to what some members of the Department called a “wave of political retribution and vindictiveness” against those graduate students and faculty who do not support Asante's positions or his reappointment. They claimed' Asanle's alleged abuses' range from promoting graduate students who favored him, regardless of whether they met the objective criteria of the Department's Admission and Standards Committee, to using the budget cuts in an attempt io purge dissident younger faculty. The net effect has been “to polarize the Department around those who support him and those who do not,” one graduate student claimed. Neither Asante nor faculty members supporting him would comment on the record on the validity of the charges in the resolution. However, one graduate student who called The Spectrum, said the resolution had absolutely nothing to do with Asante’s academic or administrative competence, but that it was, strictly motivated by racism and a continual power struggle amongst a few professors. Another graduate student claimed, however, that “that faculty that voted against Asante’s initial reappointment were faculty that originally voted to bring Asante here or those he (Asante] personally hired. Thus; the only issue is over his lack of managerial skills (and not racism dr power].” _ Me? Nervous? When asked if he felt actually threatened or in physical danger, Spiegel said no. “If I had thought something was going to happen. I wouldn’t have stood up on that chair!”, he said. He said it was an “emergency situation,” in which he did what he felt he had to, and was nervous about it only when fte thought about it later. Following the meeting, ht and other SA officials and Assembly representatives conferred with Vice President for Student Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti and his assistant Ron Stein. Spiegel said Lorenzetti was in the process of leaving the office when they arrived, and thus did little but “try to calm us down.” With Stein, they discussed the technical aspects of the budgeting process facing. the Executive Committee. Friday’s meeting followed two other stormy sessions on Wednesday and Thursday in which only the SA Office Budget, Stipends, SASU dues, Sub Board and Athletics allocations were acted upon by the Assembly, leaving some 100 clubs and organizations untouched. ' Spiegel said when it became apparent during Wednesday’s meeting that members of the student services organizations (NYPIRG, Community Action Corps [CAC] and the Legal Aid Clinic) were unhappy with their recommended allocations, the- meeting was ‘. 1/ . recessed. Wednesday evening SA officials met withrepresentatives from the services and minority organizations. A revised budget was hammered out which satisfied the services groups, but not the minorities. Thursday’s session was also disrupted by unhappy students, but Speigel was able to maintain control long enough to call for a recess. Members of the Black Student Union (BSU) and the Third World Vet* , . then took charge of the meeting. >’• , - Adjournment of last Friday’s meeting of the Financial Assembly eliminated any chance for that body to consider or pass any of the Student Association’s (SA) 13-page budget proposals before today, the end of the academic year. Therefore, as stipulated in the SA constitution, the budgets will be considered by the Executive Committee. SA Executive Vice President Steve Spiegel said the deadline for them to do so is mid July. The Assembly’s adjournment was necessitated by disruptions and threats of physical violence by a number of students unhappy with the recommended allocations for minority organizations. Moments after Spiegel called the meeting to order, the tables at which he and the Executive Committee sat were turned over and his microphone was grabbed away. Spiegel then stood .up on a chair and attempted to regain control of the meeting. “I went out of my way to outshout them to tell them I would call for adjournement, and that the Executive Committee would pass the budget if I did,” he said. “Then I explained it to the Assembly and took the vote.” He said the Executive Committee had already discussed the tense situation that would face them at Friday’s meeting, and planned what they would do if things got “out of hand.” “Things were never quite ‘in hand’,” Spiegel said. “But everybody did what we had planned,” as did a person who had agreed to second the motion. ‘4 Grievances Since he arrived here in 1973, Asante had seven four from graduate grievances filed against him — students ' Lashing out Goldhabber claimed it was “strictly a vindictive move on the part of the chairman to strike out against those who will speak out against him. The proof of his vindictiveness lies in the fact that he is standing in the way of a professor who’s attempting to do his job, namely present the result of his research. Goldhabber was once the vice chairman of the Department, according to one facility member and three from faculty.

A tentative agreement was reached which was subject to approval by the Finance Committee. On Friday before the meeting, however, when Spiegel told the minority groups that the terms of the agreement would not be met completely, was promising these they were angered. “I think they took it to mean I things to them,” he said. —continued on page 18— your work is meant for the classroom, I’m using my discretion to determine whether our clerical staff should do your work.

JudaicStudies given a one year reprieve The Judaic Studies program at this University has been given at least one more year to live, according to its only faculty member, Michael Silverman. Silverman was granted a contract this month that will enable him to continue teaching his Judaic Studies courses, althoughlie has not received his expected tenure as yet. It was feared earlier in the year that the Judaic Studies program would weaken or even dissolve because of the possible denial of Silverman’s tenure, combined with the University’s budget cuts and the hiring freeze imposed by Governor Carey. In an earlier interview with The Spectrum, Silverman said students would still be able to take Judaic Studies courses that were cross-listed with other departments, yet emphasized that a random sprinkling of courses would be academically ineffective. “While there still may be a Judaic Studies course in peripheral areas,” Silverman said, “the program cannot be run satisfactorily and give students a decent education in the area without core courses.” Once fully alarmed by the situation, Silverman filed a grievance which resulted in the rescue of the program. “The death sentence has been averted for a year,” he said. Silverman contended that Judaic Studies is “as legitimate a field as English,” and that many students in the University are interested in its courses. Although the program does not offer a regular BA degree, it is possible to attain a special major in the field. Silverman has been a co-sponsor for most of the people who have taken the special majors. jjEWISlTSTUDENTUNIONI * witt beholding - Tomorrow night »7:30 pm344 Norton I Positions open k - !

This place is Zoar Valley. The Zoar is not a public park in the official sense. It is a valley which has been sold, section by section, to a number of private landowners. Most of these landowners are farmers, and therefore, much of the immediate area surrounding the gorge has been left untouched since farming there is highly unfeasible. The Cattaraugus Creek cuts through Zoar Valley and is responsible for its gorge, formed during the Ice Age. As most of the region is comprised of loose shale and other glacial deposits, the land is soft 'and most unstable. The creek has cut down through two hundred feet of shale in some places. The result of this erosion is both the beauty of the high cliffs, and their inherent danger. Because of the relative weakness of the shale, climbing on and leaning over the edge of these cliffs is extremely hazardous. While no statistics are available, it is common knowledge among the people who live near the valley that many deaths and injuries have occurred as a result of attempted climbs. Adding to both the beauty and the danger is the presence of many smaller Sunday kicks off anniversary fest 20,000 visitors are expected for the annual Over Community-University Day on Sunday, which will start a week-long celebration of this University’s 130th Anniversary.

Also scheduled is an all women’s barbershop quartet ‘The Baird Belles,” an “Hour of Big Band Sounds” by the UB Jazz Ensemble, and a University Opera Studio presentation. President Robert Ketter and his staff will be available for conversation and information in the Fargo Quadrangle Dining Hall. There will also be an “information arena” to answer questions on academic programs, admissions and financial aid in the same location.

Hours may be spent exploring these brooks, wandering through the surrounding woods, climbing hills and finding one of the many waterfalls that cascade over the rock and clay. At least one of these waterfalls empties into a small swimming hole, a genuine delight in hot weather. According to a historian in of Zoar’s Gowanda, one neighboring communities, the Valley has gone through a number of changes over the years. It was first settled in the early 19th Century, when many early inhabitants built saw mills and grist mills on the many streams in the area. Because the valley drains over seven hundred square miles of Allegheny foothills, there was more than enough water power for everybody. Power company In fact, the Mohawk Power Company recently bought the rights to build a power plant on the Cattaraugus, but luckily they could find no stable land upon which to build. The pollution and topological destruction this would have caused has therefore been avoided. The area developed quickly for two reasons.

His appearance was deliberately timed to coincide with finals so as to attract as tittle attention from students as possible. Yet, if all goes well, he will be greeted by an orderly, visible demonstration by campus and community groups who wish to make known their outrage at the crisis facing public higher education in our state today.

Ideally, it is the responsibility of the citizen to be eternally vigilant of government and government officials. However, this has never been the case, and presently it is further from reality than at any time in American history. The sheer size and complexity of our government on all levels makes citizenship a complicated job. The average citizen has too little time to gain the knowledge of government to apply oneself effectively to fighting today’s social problems. As a result, government continues to grow, as we citizens delegate away our respoeiibffity and authority. In response to this teak «>f citizen participation in societal probteiW. we must look university at the role or our universities. To has two functions: orte it to provide “knowledge” and the other Is to explore the application of this “knowledge” to solving societal problems. The first is to a large degree fulfilled, but it is in the satisfaction ofthe second tha{ we fall short. The reason is that current problems are seldom incorporated into our academic curriculum. For example, the possible economic collapse of New York City, Buffalo and the SUNY system directly affects all of us as citizens and students. Yet 1 have no knowledge of these issues ever being critically examined in any economics course. Certainly they could fit into any professor’s curriculum and be discussed at any level of sophistication. But as a rule, they are ignored. At a time when students are becoming more involved with their coinmunities, the educational system continues to stay away from these issues. It is a gils it a given that academia be isolated from the surrounding environment to be . effective? I accept the fact that classroom teaching has to be abstract to some extent, but this does not mean that current, problems should be completely ignored. Where is there a better environment to analyze community problems except the universities? I cannot imagine any ; likes, the closing of academic , across that state, retrenching of and lots more.

Management courses could deal with the mismanagement of city funds, economics courses with the demand for city and state bonds, sociology courses with the problems of those living in the inner cities, engineering courses with the technological problems of rebuilding the dilapidated ghettos, and so on My main concern is that we stop studying, analyzing, and critiquing hypothetical cases relevant to ten years past. When we add to this another ten years before we will be in a position to apply this knowledge, the case for incorporating current problems into the classroom becomes even stronger. Students tend to be aware of the complex iAter-retationsbips between the country’s economic troubles, the energy crises, and the continuing threat to our environment. But since we lack the ability to apply our book knowledge, it becomes difficult for us to understand and analyze those interrelationships. Hence our solutions are at a. micro level and often — non-optimal. This dilemma gives us no incentive to deal with the thousands of problems surrounding us, and it leaves us uncaring. We as citizens should be finding the information that is needed to make intelligent decisions necessary for a true democracy and infusing the “public interest” into areas that too long have been dominated by corporate, political, and other special interests. Bril success at being “good” citizens requires practical training and preparation; ingredients notably lacking at the undergraduate level. The University was organized for educational purposes. but it seems to have excluded a major concern of instructing and training its members as responsible citizens. The only fundamental solution to many of today’s problems is through the education a university can supply, but the solutions, if they arrive, often arrive too late. If our democracy is to ever approach its potential, a sophisticated and knowledgeable citizenry will be the key, only possible through a more relevant education process. 1976 200 years after our government was first conceived is the year to begin to rededicate ourselves to this goal. - - is if Carey is going to make empty promises he knows he cannot keep, we must see to it that he eats his Street talk To the Editor.

When I used the words, “instrumentation was heavenly,” they expressed the thought 1 had intended. If they were not my intended words they would not have been used. If Paul looks in the dictionary, he will find that connotations may be suggested by words or things. So he thought wrong when he said the term applied only to words. The phrase “back on the set” is a figure of speech. It’s what you can call “street talk.” Evidently Paul is not hip to street language at all and he probably had a very hard time reading my review of the Trammps new album too. So 1 suggest that he skip over my album reviews totally. Regarding his question, “how long is a couple of years?”, a couple of years is as long as it takes Kook and The Gang to come out with a new jam (album, Paul).

A The Spectrum interview of two United Farm Worker Support Committee members appeared in the March 3 edition. A copy of the article just arrived via an East coast friend. If it is not too late. I’d like to correct some of the misstatements made by the UFW supporters. On April 21, in San Diego, Cesar Chavez indicated that the UFW ‘‘May have to resort to boycotts” if the UFW’s proposed California Initiative fails. Yet, The Spectrum clearly indicated there is still a boycott. Obviously, Roger Glasgow and Steve Vitoff are living in the past. Unfortunately, they also demonstrate an abysmal ignorance of UFW policies. The E. & J. Gallo Winery, for example, has consistently supported bringing all American farmworkers under the rules and procedures of the National Labor Relations Act, thereby guaranteeing all farmworkers the right to a free secret ballot election to choose a union. The UFW has consistently opposed the NLRA. Besides guaranteeing secret ballot elections, it also does away with secondary boycotts. Yet, the two UFW supporters are advocating the NLRA for farmworkers, thereby'placing them at odds with the UFW. (By the way, the UFW position on the NLRA has consistently astounded me. If farmworkers vote in a free secret ballot election, why do you need a secondary boycott? A secondary boycott is an attempt to force an employer to sign a contract with a union without workers having a say.) The Spectrum article then discussed the California Agricultural Labor Relations Act. The E. & J. Gallo Winery supported the passage of this law because of our long history supporting legislation that provides secret ballot elections for farmworkers. The electipns held to date, under the California Agricultural Labor Relations Act, reveals that (contrary to statements of UFW Public Relations people), all farmworkers do not wish to belong to the UFW just as all farmworkers do not wish to belong to the Teamsters Union. 1 enclose a summary sheet received from the Agricultural Labor Relations Board. You will note Forceful that many elections have been held where the ballot reads “UFW versus no union.” The UFW has won most of these electkyis, indicating that given a choice, farmworkers generally tend to favor unionization. Please note that there have been only 125 elections where farmworkers had the clear choice of voting for the UFW or the TFamsters or no union. Where both unions appeared on the ballot, the Teamsters are ahead by a narrow margin. The UFW supporters indicate "it merely wants a living wage for its workers.” Please note that Gallo farmworkers are guaranteed by their Teamsters contract a minimum of S3.36 per hour up to S4.25 per hour depending on job classification. Plus fringe benefits, paid pension plan, paid vacation, paid holidays, premium paid overtime, paid health paid life insurance, and paid insurance, unemployment insurance. On September 19, 1975, Gallo farmworkers voted in a secret ballot election, supervised by the State Agricultural Labor Relations Board. Gallo farmworkers voted 223 Teamsters, 131 UFW and 0 votes for no union. An additional 195 ballots were challenged. The challenged ballots are now being adjudicated and no amount of boycotting (which Mr. Chavez indicates no longer is taking place) can effect the outcome of this election. It is in the hands of the Agricultural Labor Relations Board. The E. & J. Gallo Winery is 100 percent union from grape to bottle. Besides Gallo’s 199 permanent employs more and 300 seasonal than 2,000 members of Ihree different AFL-CIO unions, Our history of unionization dates back more than 30 years. Of the 2.2 million farmworkers in this country, less than 60,000 belong to a union, any union. There are no union farmworkers in the State of New York. Should not time, money and effort be directed towards unionizing this vast non-union population rather than attacking a 100 percent union winery? Much remains to be done for farmworkers throughout the country. Let’s get on with it. Daniel J. Solomon Communications Direction E. J. Gallo Winery, & Modesto, California lobbying To the Editor I thoroughly enjoyed your recent column on hints for prospective student lobbyists and wanted to let you know that I think you did a very good job of capturing the situation involving both the Member of Congress, and the lobbyists just prior to a vote on a particular legislative issue. The students that I encountered prior to the recent House vote to an amendment (obey-Roybal) to increase the appropriation for the Basic Opportunity Grant program were very articulate in and regard to the merits of the BEOG program made thoughtful comments that helped me support the amendment. I am pleased that the amendment did pass by a wide margin, and will raise the amount appropriated for the BEOG program by $315 million which will prevent college students across the country from having their grants reduced next year. - As you know, the BEOG program is- the foundation of the federal financial structure designed to assist the college student meet the high costs of higher education. Many questions were raised in conjunction with the proposed amendment to increase the appropriation for this program and I am pleased to say that the student lobbyists on Capitol Hill that day were instrumental in getting the facts out on the need for the amendment, and the projected repercussions of failure to Adopt the / amendment. The Second Supplemental Appropriation bill containing the amendment is now before the Senate. If the student lobbyists do as good arjob explaining to the Senators the need for the BEOG increase as they did to members of the House, I am confident the amendment will remain intact. To the Editor. As student choreographers who participated in this year’s dance repertory concert, we wish to express our thanks to Joan VerDun for her time and effort in putting this concert together. We found Ms. VerDun’s comments and suggestions helpful, and appreciated her accessability. Working in the concert valuable experience for both of us. We would also like to correct certain misconceptions that may have been engendered by a latter published in The Spectrum last Friday. To begin with, it is untrue that no guidance was given to choreographers until the last three weeks before the concert. Both of us were present at a preliminary rehearsal on March 25th, at which time all works in progress were discussed and criticized, including Cindy Ickes and June Guralnik’s piece. It was understood that revisions might be necessary after subsequent viewings. Furthermore, it had been made clear at the beginning of the semester that rehearsals for student pieces would take place outside of class was a ■- time. We doubt that many choreographers have avoided aggravation and frustration while preparing a dance for performance. Nevertheless, we feel in this case, it was a small price to pay in light of what we learned. Lorrie Indyke Cheryl Johnson Give us a break To the Editor. The enlightening editorial by Keith Friedlander shows some of the many modes by which students get raw deals via the education business. We are forced to deal with monopolies (food service), have members of the business world dictate University policy to enhance their profits (Cavages), and are constantly getting less for our money (an increase in tuition coupled with a decrease in services and budget cuts). The last one gets me the most. More tuition, less education. Now for the double ripoff. The Bookstore is the villian here. As we all know, it charges retail, profit making, prices. Now this is a: 1) State Institution, 2) Educational Institution, 3) Service (?) to students, and should be 4) non profit. However, I’m sure profit is made, plus. “Plus what,” you ask? Why 7 percent! Notice we still have to pay state tax on all items, even those under the guise of “necessity” to our education. I feel that books purchased for a course here from the Bookstore should not have tax charged on them. We contributed to the state when we paid our tuition (and its increases).

On May 3rd in “the President’s report on resource reductions and reallocations,’’ Robert Ketter addresses us with innocent amazement: “Some persons are still expressing surprise at the realization that it is necessary, as a result of the fiscal situation, for the University to release faculty and staff.” It is not the quoted realization that is generating surprise and anger, nor simply the valid frustration many are feeling as their means of subsisting is pulled out from under them. What is being realized, with frightening swiftness to many, is the silhouette of the social force that directs this University, whose interests this University was erected to serve, and the clarification of philosophical and structural direction that surfaces during times of “tight” economy, such as the present. We are all coming to recognize that incidents which might have once, to some, appeared coincidental, such as the struggle of nationally respected programs, American Studies, and Women’s Studies, to name a few, that worsen with the expansion of University areas that serve local industrial interests, are not coincidences. In 1969, and 1970, we were confronted with these political priorities, and we recognized that ROTC, and nuclear defense were not priorities in our University, but that direction in form of residential colleges, and day care, were. It is the re-emergence of this conflict of interests under slightly altered circumstances that surprises some of us, and angers others. We get angry when it becomes painstakingly obvious, that this is not our University that it only moves in small steps towards that direction when conditions force us to fight for this. I mention these thoughts for two reasons: 1. It is summer, the traditional time for introducing the most reactionary administrative - decisions. 2. I have had the dubious honor of a ringside seat to the installation of one of these decisions. The security system that is being installed at the Department of Art is only the first emergence of a policy that is planned and being installed throughout the University. That this sytem becomes a physical reality at the same time' that the University is cutback where it attempts to reach out into the community is no coincidence. That this system will completely and effectively lock the doors that have been closed through pernicious funding allocations is an enforcement of University policy. As the University is directed away from people and towards the anarchistic development of industrial whims, people who must pay for this direction will realize the need to appropriate for themselves what is rightfully theirs. These security systems are being designed to combat this. It is we because access to who steal from this University educational and living materials is constantly frustrated. We are the thieves to be Iqpked out; we are paying for this privilege behind the guise of “our - own interests.” some It is summer, and we will be away physically, some spiritually. If we are here, let’s watch the University and its administration as it moves. If we are away, let’s use this time to develop further our awareness of these conflicts, and the resultant repression. In the fall, it will take many times the battle waved in 1969 and 1970 to redirect the reactionary movement of this institution. - Alan Friedman r *Dapt. of A* iv r .V* • , Last but not least, our roommates, Fra “.

Friday 1 saw an ad in The Spectrum from Grolier, announcing that there were 25 positions open for the summer. The ad stated that the positions offer a $630 monthly guarantee. I worked for Grolier last summer and I want to inform students of my experience so that they will not fall into the same trap as I did. When people read the ad, most of them figure, “I’ll never get that job.” The truth is, everyone gets hired. What the job boils down to is selling encyclopedias door to door fof commission. At Grolier, they call it “promoting.” Whatever you call it, the job involves knocking on doors, getting into someone’s house, and trying to convince them that the educational package you have for them (including encyclopedias) is worth $600. The material you will show people is of the highest calibre and definitely worth the money. Convincing another person of that is another story. Working four 60-hour weeks, I made a total of $60. I wrote four orders in that time. Of these, three either cancelled or could not receive credit, so 1 got my commission on one order. My experience was similar to that of many others, although the common pattern is to work a week of two (60 hours a week) an4 quit after making no money. At Grolicr, the management is great at telling you how easy the job is. If you go to work for them, they’ll have you believing that you can make $1200 a month. Everyone eventaully finds that this is not true. They do a great psyche job on you and keep you hanging on, convinced that you’ll start writing orders tomorrow. At Grolier, there are two ways of making money. You get paid $60 for each order you write. than 11 orders a month ($660) they If you write tell you that you’ll get the rest of the $630 which you are “guaranteed.” This guarantee, though, is only if you have made 60 presentations of the program that month (excluding showing it to friends). What happens in reality is that after a couple of weeks you realize that you can never make your 60 presentations and you are now working for commission. They are very slick at Grolier and will have you convinced of how easy it is to make a lot of money. This is simply not true. But many people find out too late. I am hoping that others are not fooled this summer as 1 was last summer. Elliott Witkin Business or school To the Editor. With many worthwhile clubs and organizations getting their budgets cut back, I think we should abolish all student stipended positions. S.A. stipends alone, for the coming year, amount to about $12,000. Instead of paying students money to run the student government and newspaper, academic credit should be given. In this way we would have a government and newspaper of better quality since the students running them would have more time and energy to put into their work. I know from working on The Spectrum that even to put out a fair-to-poor issue requires a lot of work from a lot of people. Working in these organizations can be a great learning experience; there is no reason why a different plan couldn’t be worked out. This would certainly help the University change from a business back into a school.

Barry Malzberg writes a short introduction to each story in the collection The Best of Barry N. Malzberg (Pocket Books, $1.95). He says in the opening paragraph to the last story in the book that “at the time of this writing (July 23, 1975 ...), I have made the irrevocable decision to write no more science fiction.” If he sticks by his promise, the genre will have lost a truly great artist. The stories of Barry Malzberg are usually dark and forboding, with an occasional light beam playing across their craggy surfaces as a delightful surprise or as a touch of whimsy. His sense of the strange can be all too realistic and frighteningly plausible. In “Culture Lock” he deals with a 1 future in which gay relations are perfectly free and in which the love has gone. The total achievement of gay rights and the all-inclusive acceptance of gay love by society and its controllers has taken away, much of the inherent mystique that their places as forbiddens have instilled in their practitioners. The horror of the story is the embracing of that loss by the characters as a natural condition. In “Fin de Sieclethe first story in Future Without Future by Jacques Sternberg (Seabury/Continuum, $6.95), the major character keeps a diary. The entry for October 4, 1999 reades, in part: "...And to prevent any risk of any commemoration whatever, the Center for Distribution of Time regularly suppresses, every year, the third of October. ” If black humor is the holding up of a warped mirror to the viewer, the showing of a possible but distorted reality, then Sternberg has indeed mastered that art. “Vacation’ will utterly destroy you. Its too-close resemblence to the reality of too many past vacations will haunt you all the summer. (Maybe you had better read this one in late August.) I presume that there are graduations of humor and that the next step up from black humor could conceivably be somewhere in the range of the purples. The Cyberiad: Fables for the Cybernetic Age by Stanislaw Lem (Seabury/Continuum, $9.50) would probably wind up in the low indigo range or maybe high lavendar. Meet Trurl and Klapaucius, two of the most unlikely and likeable wierdos-heroes you will ever come across. If Max Sennett were ever to do sci-fi flicks, these two characters would be his stars. The action takes place in the far distant future tomorrow. The universe is populated by robots and other living devices, all of which have been built by the robots. -Trurl and Klapaucius are “constructors,” which means they build things like more robots, but robots with a difference. For instance, Trurl builds an eight-story-tall thinking machine which does simple arithmetic but always comes up with the wrong answer and stoutly defends its inaccuracy by trying to kill its inventor. (If that doesn’t sound too funny I can only suggest you read the story.) For the most part, the book is a collection of loosely-joined short stories each in the form of a “Sally,” which is a trip, not a this medium of trollop. Through expression they go from the. delightfully sublime to the hilariously abusrd. The find fable about the palefaces is well worth the price of the entire book. If you want to read something else by the same author try The Invincible (Seabury/Continuum, $6.95). This is an entirely different type of story, yet has all of the readability factors of The Cyberiad. This story is more along the lines of the standard space classic. Each one of us is capable of being slightly, and positively or productively, schizophrenic. Our daydream characterizations of our self-images are enhanced and we find a safety valve for the multiple, and often miniscule, frustrations of daily life. In The Triune Man by Richard A. Lupoff (G.P. Putnam’s Sons, $6.95), schizophrenia reaches new heights of fascinating absurdity.

If you are getting confused by my description of this work K don’t worry this is only the beginning. The three characters have to get it together in time to save the universe.

In view of the action, the last few paragraphs make very little sense but do ameliorate the fact that somewhere someone dould be owrking on such a device even as you read this. “Social” science fiction has a long and honorable background. You can find superb examples (More’s Utopia, Orwell’s 1984) but it is unfortunate that so many bad or mediocre works outnumber the better ones.

Good news, sci-fi fans; there are such things and in fact there is one made just for you.

In other instances, they pontificate appear to have all situations well in hand, when in reality they are as puzzled and worried as the populace whose fears they are trying to allay. As much as certain scholars wish for the opposite, speculation will not go away. A perfect example of this is the apparent constant manifestation of UFOs, flying saucers, which The Invisible College by Jacques Vallee (Duttdn & Co., $8.95) attempts to deal with. Mr. Vallee equates the manifestation of flying saucers and other related incidents with psychic phenomena. His premise is that in times of extreme mental stress or change we produce our own materially sound occurrences which can be tested by other observers. (The “miracle” at Fatima is a perfect example.) He relies, however, on the events that surround Uri Geller, a questionable source at best. There are other documented instances and events in the book, and these alleviate PROBLEM PREGNANCY?

He is a neurotic who refuses to eat lunch with the rest of the cast because he feels that people stare at by Amirs Lapidot Spectrum Arts Staff As it is in life, where whites try to direct blacks, so it is in Alice Childress’ meta-drama Trouble in Mind where whites literally direct the predominantly black cast of the play-within-the-play, Chaos in Belleville. The real drama then is one of racial tensions between the characters of the tw'o plays. The complexity of the actors and actresses of Trouble is contrasted with the naive, simplistic stereotyping of the same characters in the play within it, Chaps. As the director within -the play, A1 Manners (Chuck Fadel), explains it: You can’t get a black play with a true message on Broa way because 1) white people won’t believe it; 2) they don’t want to believe it; and 3) they’re mot ready to believe it so you have to take it slow. But he is a “some-of-my-friends-are-black” type, anyway. In the opening scene, for instance, Wiletta Mayer (Lorna A. Hill, who also directed the play) tries to instruct John Nevins (Ken Norman) on how to behave when A1 Manners comes: Just keep smiling and laughing, she said, because white folks hate to see unhappy coloreds. - him; he can just imagine what they’re thinking! When A1 finally convinces Bill to go out with the cast, Bill only puts his foot in his mouth by telling racial jokes. Judy Sears (Susan Grajek) plays a naive young lady who sees the world as filled with roses, cotton candy, and Sunday School marches; she persistently asks the cast to come to her parents’ house in Bridgeport, Connecticut. She plays a similar role in Chaos', she is a rich planter’s daughter at a time when blacks are about to receive the vote. She keeps begging her father to let the darkies hold a barn stomp so they can have their fun. The two most down-to-earth characters are Millie Davis (Josephine Ewing) and Sheldon Forrester (Frankie J. Robinson); they have given up trying to attain stardom and are content with any part at all, just as long as they can get their money and live decently. John and Judy are both new in the field; they want to rise to the top, so they do what they are told without too much fu$s. Wiletta, however, is completely different Not all an act but her protests only get her out the door and on to the sidewalk. Although most of the director-actor friction is between A1 and Willeta concerning the “turn yourself in“ line, there are many other factors involved principally, Wiletta’s determination to become a star and to relate the truth while doing so. She refuses to be treated or cast as a “dumb nigger;” she insists on being treated as a person. This is not to say that the other characters feel no resentment toward Al. ft is mostly sensed in Millie, Sheldon, Eddie Fenton, Al’s “gofer, ’-(Tom Dooney), and Henry (Evan Perry), the 78-year-old janitor. Al’s character is so imposing and d thr by thr of thr day h; — Most importantly, however, it got the theme of “reality and truth versus imagination and fantasy’’ across; Chaos portrays life simplistically by showing the blacks as down-home people who really don’t know any better. The truth lies in the cast and crew; all are trying to be realistic, but some have a very warped perception of the world. Only the ending is lacking; I’m afraid that the reading of the 23rd Psalm tears none of my heartstrings. And after its completion, the audience didn’t know whether to clap or wait for something else.

As usual, he has followed the musical trend of the times by recording his new album in Jamaica, and the album flows well because of its reggae undertones. But it also overflows with monotony. Joe Cocker’s usually flawless choice of material suffers a reversal on this album. He sings two new Dylan songs (not yet recorded by Bob “Catfish” and “The Man in Me”) neither of which appear to be worth the effort. That is not Cocker’s problem, though. “The Man in Me” is the album’s only totally reggae cut, and it works well musically, but Cocker’s phlegm-infested voice annihilates the words beyond comprehension; the song loses out in the end. He does three of Matthew Moore’s songs, all of which are neither showy or catchy, but his voice and style pull them off nicely. Most of the album is pleasant — enough to listen to, Cocker having not lost his ability to communicate emotion in song. R is just that there are no songs that stand out. tt is an album filled with pleasing mediocrity, but lacking a bit of musical polish and push. This is enlivened a bit by Leon RusSefl’s “A Song For You,” the type of tune Cocker enjoys and is best at interpreting. The result, however, is a slowed-down, drawn out, strained attempt to achieve the intensity that Leon introduced in his version. As much as it appears that Cocker enjoyed recording this album, it would seem he has lot a little of his confidence. Joe Cocker does succeed in showing how reggae can be worked into any type of song well and makes good use of his backing vocalists. He gives the band lots of room to maneuver but they seem content in just backing the man with the voice. The man with the voice seems to be satisfied with his contribution to the continuance of music in whatever form it takes. Joel Dinerstein Leslie Gore Love Me By Name Talented and knowledgeable people have been involved in the making of Leslie Gore’s new, “comeback” album love Me By Name. Love Me By Name is largely a MOR effort, produced by Quincy Jones and featuring the Herbie Hancock Orchestra as well as the saxophone af Tom Scott. But despite this help, it is apparent that Jones was never really able to locate the right niche in which,to showcase Gore’s fine ringing abilities. Although Love Me By Name contains one outstanding tune, a lisco-oriented number entitled, “Sometimes” as well as some other lecent cuts, the materia) is generally flat. Core is a talented, though obviously limited singer and these limitations arc particularly evident an the songs that make even the slightest allusions to being ballads. Also much of the material has a “been down but not out” attitude to it :hat soon becomes annoying. The up-tempo numbers are best, the voice is still there, and a following effort could really produce surprises. Anyway, “It’s My Party” was a great song.

Appearing a little tense at first. Manes started the program with the Sonata in C Minor (Opus 10, No. 1), an early piece that closely fits the classical three-movement sonata form (fast-slow-fast). The first movement (allegro molto e con brio) uses strongly contrasting themes and dynamics to achieve a lively, dramatic effect. Manes overemphasized the dynamics a 0 ■munimmuim bit, resulting in a somewhat unbalanced sound. However, the second (adagio molto) movement, which develops ~as a set of variations on the opening theme and sometimes stops to achieve its dramatic effect, was very cleanly performed. The companion to Beethoven’s famous “Moonlight” Sonata, the Sonata (quasi una Fantasia) in C Flat Major (Opus 27, No. 1), is written in four continuous movements. In this piece. Manes achieved a sensitive tonal and dynamic balance. The second movement, with its sudden outbursts and changes of mood, was handled especially well.

All three movements contrasted nicely with each other in this relatively (Opus “easy” . undemanding piece. Successful year Beethoven’s last and perhaps greatest sonata is the Sonata in C Minor, Opus 111. The turbulent first movement can only be described as a furious, chaotic barrage of sound. (It is pure Beethoven in its intensity and granduer!). The extraordinary coda of this movement gradually slows down the music to allow the listener to make the transition into the tranquil second movement. The second movement reaches its climax with the two hands at the extreme ends of the keyboard. The. final quiet statement of the theme lends an ethereal quality to this finely-spun musical maze. With his sensitive handling of this intricate piece. Manes proved himself more than just a skilled technician. This performance brought to a close College B’s very successful 1975-76 concert program. Several of the Beethoven sonata programs filled the Cornell Theater despite being held on Sunday mornings, with most of the audience made up of non-students. College B master Carlo Pinto has yet .to announce a firm schedule of events for next year. Howe er, it is known that pianist Yvar Mikhashoff will continue his series of Sunday night recitals and a series of Thursday night student recitals will be started in the fall. In addition. College B plans programs covering ballet, modern dance, jazz and rock music. Wednesday, 5 May 1976 The Spectrum Page fifteen . . �I'm LILLY VALLEY NUDIST PARK A place to relax and be yourself.

At a meeting two weeks ago over a review of his year's work, Porter was informed by Asante that his teaching was bad, his research irrelevant, and th$t not enough people were involved in the Communication Research Center, according to an informed source. Tire source said Asante told Porter he couldn’t support him if he had to reappoint him now, and speculated that this was directly related to Porter’s recent lack of support for Asante’s policies. Porter, who was once one of the few faculty members Asante consulted, changed his position because he felt Asante had lied to him, another faculty member claimed. Porter had reportedly asked Asante why he was singling out Professors Charles Petrie and Ernest Tompson for a larger course load, lower level courses and no summer work. In a private conversation. Asante reportedly told Porter that he wanted to isloate Petrie and Thompson for being uncooperative. However, Asante said at a faculty meeting the reason he singled them out was that he wanted to get tenured professors leaching undergraduate classes. Amending by-laws The source claimed that the other reason for Asante's reversal of support for Porter was due to his disapproval of what some faculty members have called Asante's “Feuhrer amendment.” The Feuhrer Amendement" would have changed the Department's by-laws so that the chairman could reserve the right to appoint the chairperson of the various departmental committees, as opposed to them being selected by democractic election, which is now the policy. One faculty member claimed that Asante has the power, but wants to legitimatize it with this amendment. At the meeting in which Asante had introduced the “Feuhrer amendment," Professor Gerald Frye, considered by observers to be neutral in Department politics, stated that “he would resign before he would tolerate a non-democratic Department.!’ Two weeks later, when Frye was informed that Asante had not supported him on the vote on his reappointment, Frye expressed shock, claiming that before the “Feuhrer amendment” Asante told him “he would give his full support even if the entire faculty voted against me.” Frye said he told Asante he felt he had been deceived. Frye said Asante replied, “Yes, the Department is full of deception.” One of the explanations for Asante’s lack of support, according to "Frye, was that his research was weak and was not useful to the Department. Frye claimed that this was “strange indeed,” considering that he [Frye] is working on a textbook for undergraduates with Asante and that Asante has accepted two of Frye’s articles for publication in a journal Asante himself is editing. p I II I I Each fiutotune-up”.

Lau claims that Asante lied to him in saying last March that the faculty vote on Lau’s tenure had been 50—50, and that he could not count on it being approved. Lau said he asked Asante whether that was a final decision. He said Asante replied no During the Sttmmer' updated resume from Lau, assui toe ?Sf?|P "; ■7- - 1 + -.•> ■£,. , ■*>. ; .s .. v •• -'X'U _.t 4 -V. —continued from page 3-*- who was brought here by Asante as his “right hand i. ‘ ■ ' interim-[one 1 25 regular june 28-aug 6 ■ • • t- indicating that he would not be reappointed. At that time, Lau was told that the initial vote on his reappointment had really been 7—5, and that Asante had recommended not to reappoint. Some members of the Department claim that during the threats of retrenchment, Asante told Walter Gantz, another faculty member, that he was going to be cut if a Department line had to be lost, and that this was related to Gantz’s lack of support for Asante. The Department members also claimed that Asante selected Gantz despite the fact that he was hired specifically as a mass communications specialist, and that his academic credentials are better than another professor hired at the same time. Both job descriptions call for mass communication specialists, but the other faculty member’s degree is in rhetoric, and he is considered a supporter of Asante, they said. Lack of consultation Other members of the Department cited Asante for his “lack of formal consultation” in Departmental matters, particularly over the hiring of professors and the appointment of graduate students. Professor Thompson has filed a formal grievance against Asante for a violation of the by-laws by hiring Rita Alvis without a formal vote. Other faculty members claimed that Alvis was offered the job before her on-campus interview. Most significantly they claim, for two years, “PhD” has appeared beside Alvis’ name in both the Graduate Catalogue and the Graduate Handbook, as well as at an International Symposium on Communication. Alvis only received word that her thesis was accepted last January. This action was a major breach of ethics especially since they both continued the fascade, one professor said. They also claimed that Professors Gantz and Blake were appointed without formal consultation. Similarly, some faculty claim that Asante has and overruled repeatedly by-passed recommendations of the Admissions and Standards Committee by accepting graduate students that do not meet the committee’s objective criteria, thus lowering the quality of the program. One member of the committee claimed that in Fall 1975, one quarter of the students who were accepted to the graduate department were rejected or never seen by the committee. Another professor said that of the 16 Assistantships awarded at that time, Asante renewed and appointed two students who didn’t meet the criteria set up by the Personnel and Appointments committee for Assistantships. 1 No rebutai Responding to complaints over these actions, Asante reportedly told the committees that if he were going to reverse a decision, he would give reasons and offer an opportunity for rebutai, one faculty member claimed. However, four students were admitted in Spring 1974 that the Admissions Committee either opposed or never saw, the professor countered. This is not quality control, another claimed. You can’t give lip service to offering a program of excellence and allow these types of situations to happen, he said. Faculty memebrs don’t object to Asante’s desire to bring in minorities and foreign students who might not perform well on standardized tests, a professor explained, but this should be the exception and not the rule and should be done with faculty > input.

He said he felt SA had “handled both the groups the same way,” meaning that any proposals made during negotiations with Services groups were also subject to approval by the Finance Committee. NYPIRG member David Lennett said an initial coalition of the minority and services groups broke down when the minorities refused to be realistic in their negotiations. Poor planning “A lot of people were willing to take voluntary cuts. They were willing to take voluntary increases,” he said. “They weren’t willing to negotiate on reasonable terms.” Lennett said he didn’t think the Finance Committee had any malice toward the organizations that were cut in the proposed budgets, but that they made the mistake of passing the two “biggies” (Athletics and Sub Board) before planning the rest of the budget. “Before PIRG even walked in that door it was the prevelant feeling of the Committee members that we would have to be cut,” he said. Lennett believes they “didn’t think about where the money was going to come from” when Athletics and Sub Board were given substantial increases. “I just hope the Executive Committee doesn’t start screwing V around with the budgets after all this,” he said. the that the “legitimate” up by saying summed situation Spiegel political system of open meetings and “caucusing” are the ones that SA ideally uses for its budgeting process, but in the event that the legitimate system “breaks down,” the Executive Committee is given the power to act “unilaterally.” “It was either the system’s fault or our fault” that the process broke down,” he said. “We really tried and it almost worked.” Natuml splendor..: farming highly productive. Also important was the fact that the Valley contains the finest hardwood stands east of the Mississippi River. While farming continues today, the mills are all but a thing of the past. A tannery and glue factory remained until recently, but community pressure concerning pollution controls has caused such industry to go elsewhere. Zoar Valley can be reached by taking Route 62 (Bailey Ave.) about forty miles to Gowanda Zoar Road, which stretches from Gowanda to Springville (as does the Valley) a distance of about twelve miles. The area most frequently visited is near the town of townspeople Many Gowanda. became upset over the increasing numbers of young people camping in the Valley and leaving in their wake mounds of trash and makeshift campsites, according to a local spokesperson. They were also alarmed by the mishaps involving people climbing the rocks and cliffs, many which necessitate the formation of a first-aid and rescue squad. Overnight camping, while once popular, is now illegal as a result of these problems. Those people who wish to spend a day in the Valley, however, are welcome.

The final point totals were: University of Buffalo 81, Niagara 65, Buffalo State 60Vi, St. Bonaventure 39 and Canisius 35. Bulls track coach A1 Heinen had high hopes for victory, but admitted, “I didn’t think we’d win that big.” Buffalo’s success was due in large part to the exploits of Eldred Stephens who took first place in four different events. First, he captured the long jump, and a few minutes later he won the hundred-yard dash. Then he returned to the field events to take the triple jumjp competition. He ended his prolific performance in good fashion with a victory in the 220-yard dash, one stride ahead of teammate Paul Kubicki. This strong, one-two finish in the 220 was a key factor in winning tlfe meet. Due to an injury earlier in the year, Stephens hadn’t entered as many events during previous meets. But Saturday, the junior from Niagara Falls showed no signs of any injury with his four wins. He also placed second with the 400-yard relay team for his fifth event of the Bold Forbes Derby winner The undermanned Bulls aren’t overpowering in any one area, but disperse their talent well through many events. Their consistent performances' in sprints, distances and field events gave them a wide margin of Victory. Last year, Walt Halady of Buffalo set the meet record for the shot gwput. He wasn’t able to top that feat this year, but his 46 feet, 4 inches was good enough for another font place finish. He was also second in - 'the hammer throw. Larry Williams helped the Bulls’-cause with a win in the 120 high hurdtoa, but more unexpected was the strong running of Mike Fisher and John Ryeeson. These two finished a suprising second and third in the 3-mile run. -Alnupugh knany contributed to the victory, Stephens stole the show, and almost single-handedly carried the Bulls with his four individual victories. Without Stephens, it would have been anyone’s meet, hd his versatility in the field and sprints enabled Buffalo to win >. , > those events. The meet was viewed by a sparse crowd gt Sweet Home High School. The track has a rubcor surface, which is different from the cinder track at Rotary Field, but the different track had little effect on the University of Buffalo track team, which finished its home schedule as an intercollegiate sport on an impressive note. • • VAT MED.

Even the weatherman did hisbfcatto make Derby Day 1976 a memorable event. The 80percent chance of rain didn't materialize until Bold Forbes was resting placidly in his stadl, reveling in the sweet victory he had jqK engineered. That Derby magic seems to ward* off the rain clouds no matter how ominious the forecast. , ..... Wire to wire The race was a masterpiece. Angel Cordero, aboard the winner, led from wire to wire. Honest Pleasure and jockey with Bratiho Baez* were second from wire to wire, sometimes close to the front, other times further back, but never dread. The race evolved into almost a match race between two speed horses of superior quality. Baez'jL tried �o’Save Honest Pleasure for a stretch drive, but Cordero had saved Bold Forbes all down the bgCkstretch and into the far turn. When Baeza moved, so did Cordero, and with the length of a horse to spare, Bold Forbes stole the Kentucky Derby. Much had been said during the week about differences between Baeza and Honest Pleasure’s trainer, Leroy Jolley. Honest Pleasure likes to run, but Jolley had wanted Baeza to teach him to hang behind the lead if necessary. In the Bluegrass Stakes a week earlier, Baeza tried to hold Honest Pleasure back, but the horse fought so hard that Baeza couldn’t stop him, and the extra strain nearly cost him the race. -V*: Sold Forbes wi—hoMiy But in the end, the day belonged to Bold Forbes and his trainer. Barrera. Ifhe winning time of 2:01.3, more than 2 seconds slower than Secretariat’s stakes record, is faiirly jjood. But of the 20 horses who have now won the Derby .from start to finish, Bold Forbes’time is the best. Barrera also had winning horses in Saturday’s Illinois Derby and in the Carter Handicap at Aqueduck, making May 1, 1976 perhaps the most successful day in his life. v , Crowd small but super The success of any Kentucky Derby depends on the mood of the crowd. This year’s crowd was instrumental in making the *76 Derby most memorable. They were a friendly, content bunch, somewhat calmer than in past years, but completely enthralled by the charm of the Derby. They drank, they slept, they ate, they necked, and they enjoyed every minute they spent dwarfed by the twin spires. The total crowd of 115,387 was not the largest in history, but what they lacked in size, they made up for in enthusiasm. The smoke bomb which was hurled onto the track fortunately had no effect on the race thanks to top notch security. Louisville law enforcement agencies do not spare the manpower on Derby Day, but all the officers are efficient and enjoy themselves almost as much as the crowd. The crowd bet almost $8.5 million for the 10-race card, and nearly $4.5 million on the Derby itself, both new records, but ultimately it was the horse, his Jockey, his owner and his trainer that won more than any bettor at Churchill Downs.

For every sparse week, though, there are two heavy weeks where two, three or even four athletes will turn in stellar performances. Eldred Stephens’ four victories in Saturday’s UB Invitational track meet was the top performance of last week, and Stephens is the year’s final Athlete of the Week. His wins were mainly responsible for the Bulk’ surprising victory in the meet, the last ever for track at this school. But also worth of the award are baseball Bulk John Buszka and Jim Niewczyk. Buszka pitched one hit ball for five innings in the second game of the Bulk sweep of Brockport. In the opener he had a homer and a double for five RBI’s. In that same game, southpaw Niewczyk hurled a no-hitter. ...

Then, on Sunday, they beat the Kenmore Lacrosse Club 12-7. The win gave the Bulls a .5711 record with 4 wins and 3 losses. Buffalo had beaten Niagara earlier in the season so the game was not expected to be close. The Bulls overwhelmed the Purple Eagle’s weak defense, with high scorer Frank Massero getting 5 goals. Club president Herb Roisman tallied for a hr.t trick, his first points of the season. Dave Caplan, Steve Hackly and Jack Simon all scored 2 goals giving Buffalo an easy win. The Bulls took 26 shots on goal to the Eagles’ 28 shots, however many of Niagara’s shots were wild. Buffalo goalie George Talboys put in an excellent effort stopping what looked like four sure goals, and holding off 22 shots-on-goal overall. Niagara never really could get going. Their passes were inaccurate and their offense seemed to fizzle out around the crease. Hie Eagles did have a hat trick, with their best scoring effort in the second period. Extra-curricular activity The futility of their effort climaxed in a fight during the third period. When Bull Marty Wilcox was hit in the neck with a stick by Niagara’s Art Roberts, the gloves and sticks were dropped and a fight ensued. Player-coach Perry Hanson and defenseman Mark Smitolski came off of the bench to join the melee while another Eagle entered the fight. Soon after the referees regained control. When the game continued, two players were ejected, (Wilcox and Roberts) and 3 sticksters were in the penalty box. Hanson and Smitolski received 3 mirtutes for coming off the bench and Niagara received 3 minutes for third man in on a fight. For Niagara this game was costly. Three Eagles were injured, and their high scorer for the game left with his knee injured badly when he was blind-sided by one of the Bulls. Buffalo was checking very hard. T hey’re (Niagara) playing pretty dirty, low checking and hitting with their sticks,” Roisman said. But in the end the Eagles were outplayed and seemed to lack the skills to beat the Bulls. Buffalo was the stronger 9f the two clubs and showed it. Sunday the Lacrosse club played the Kenmore Lacrosse Club which is a team of ex-high school and college lacrosse players who play for fun. Among their ranks are a brother pair whose age is 58 and 60. Last year they ruined the Bulls perfect record. “We’re afraid to hit them [the 60-year old playqgkj hard,’’ said defenseman Gary Passer. “ Number Ones clinch softball by Ira A. Brushman Spectrum Staff Writer game. A total of five Ones hit homers and no One went hitless. In one inning, the Ones exploded three homers in a row and eight runs. Pitcher and spiritual leader Joe Makinajian went 4 for 5 with a home run. He said the team’s tucce s was due to the players’ off-the-field cohesiveness- “A team that parties together wins together,” said the happy pitcher. It was no contest Saturday as the Number Ones, Main Street campus Champs, walloped Star Trek, the Amherst winners, 27-3 in the final game of the Intramural Softball competition. The Number Ones, aptly named, put on a slugging and fielding exhibition before a loyal crowd of about 15 who couldn’t be kept away by the rain. Ones a product of evolution Co-captains Ernie McKeever and Doug Zeif pointed out the selective nature of the team. “We’re not just a bunch of guys who hang around together. We’re a hand-picked group. There are no missing links,” Zief said. The left fielder was understandably smug in continuing, “No one can touch us. We should have gotten a bye right into the finals.” In winning this championship, three players from the Ones, Makinajian, Ernie Schindler, catcher, and McKeever, -became the only athletes in the school to be members of two of the three Intramural Championship teams, as each played for the football Clits. Losing Captain Rick Sahlman, one of the few good fielders for the Trek at third base, was disappointed with his team’s performance but had no excuses. “We’ve been averaging over 10 runs a game,” he moaned, “but we just didn’t hit today. They had an excellent defensive team.” • Both teams had S-0 seasons but their equal records were not indicative of their relative talents. Star Trek had a poor defensive team which was weakened farther by the injury to their regular centerfielder. In lob-pitch softball, everybody hits the ball hard, and the Trekkies’ inability to judge fly balls and throw out runners on groundballs was their downfall. Ones tight gloved The Ones, on the other hand, sported a stellar defensive unit that only committed three errors throughout the game. Trek batters were hitting the ball just as hard as the Ones, the difference being the Ones’ ability to make the catches. It is hard to pick out one star for the Ones, although each member of the team made a case for himself, citing his gaudy batting statistics after the liF’Cbl REFRIGERATOR RETURNS Wednesday, May 5th Main Street Campus: Goodyear Hall and Schoellkopf Hall 7 pm 8:30 pm Clement Hall and McDonald Halt 8:30 pm 10 pm -HITCH HIKING- — - — HIS SUMMER.

The meeting on the proposed SA budget for next year was called because the Wednesday and Thursday meetings were also halted by a disorderly and vocal crowd. Adjournment of the meeting means the budget is now solely in the hands of the SA Executive Committee. No further public debate is scheduled. The controversy arose over the proposed cuts in the budgets of the Black Student Union (BSU) and PODER. The original proposal called for S22.000 to be allocated to BSU (Jown from 29,900 last year), and $13,000 to PODER (versus $14,000 last year). Both groups indicated that these figures were unacceptable. The. Executive recommended Committee Thursdays that an additional $2,000 be given to both BSy and PODER from money previously earmarked for the Office of Minority Affairs. Members of this both groups rejected proposal, too. Physical threats Immediately after Speigel called the meeting to order, three men overturned the speakers’ table, grabbing the microphone. The men then announced that there would be no meeting. In an attempt to restore order, Speigel called for adjournment. Despite great tension and confusion, the the motion was passed by Senators still present. A person who had apparently been taking movie pictures of the campus all day long set up his camera in Haas Lounge. He was surrounded and threatened with bodily harm should any pictures be taken. At Thursday’s meeting, a photographer for The Spectrum was also threatened verbally. As the crowd nervously filed - out of the room, a group of black students began singing “We Shall Overcome” with one line changed “no blacks and whites to together.” The SA Executive Committee also recommended cutting $1500 from the proposed S4.450 increase in the stipends of all elected officers. Recommended stipend increases for appointed officers are not affected by the proposed cut. The $1500 would go to Academic Affairs to publish the Student Course and Teacher Evaluation (SCATE). If the cut is approved, proposed increases of $2,950 over last year's allocation for stipends will remain. The original $4,450 increase called for the President and Treasurer to receive an increase from $1,750 to $2,220; a jump from $700 to $1500 for the Executive Vice President; a $200 increase for the Vice President for Sub Board. Other lesser increases were also proposed. the Already passed by Executive Committee was a cut in salaries from $51,000 to $41,633. This still represents an increase of $7,285 over last year’s budget. Salaries are paid to secretaries and professional office workers. SA Travel was cut $300. The Committee agreed to pay Student Association of State University (SASU) dues of $9,735. The Speakers Bureau was given $3,000 specifically geared towards The New York Public Interest Research Group. (NYPIRG) was to receive $22,000. Nuclear reactor in need of costly refueling job by Rob Cohen Contributing Editor The reactor at the Nuclear Research Facility here is due for a uranium core refueling by the summer of 1977. Specific arrangements for the fuel replacement procedure are being 'worked out at this time. Charles Thomas, director of the nuclear facility estimated that the entire operation, including extraction of depleted fuel bundles and transportation of incoming and outgoing materials will cost $330,000, althou’gh one administration spokesman indicated that the total costs will run as high as $680,000. The uranium core must be enriched at approximately ten year intervals, said Martin Haas, assistant director of the facility. The proposed refueling will keep the reactor running until 1990 even though it entails only a partial replacement of consumed fuel rods. The nuclear facility has been in operation (discounting continuous rountine maintenance shutdowns and a couple of minor water leaks causing brief service cutailments) since late 1964, providing a wide gamut of community and general services. These include large scale production of medicinal radio isotopes for diagnostic traces and cancer therapy, research in a variety of fields ranging from archeology, and nuclear physics to engineering instruction. Radioactive wastes After the depleted uranium is removed from the reactor core it is placed in a water filled lead casket and transported to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s (NRC) fuel reprocessing plant in Savannah, Georgia. Because the fuel can be used again after the reprocessing procedure which salvages the remaining parcel of “burnable uranium, a radioactive waste disposal problem is avoided. However, a waste disposal problem does crop up with the reactor core parts contiguous to the semi-exhausted fuel. These materials remain hot (radioactively speaking) long after their dismantlement and have to be buried underground, indicated Marvin Resnikoff, a theoretical physicist working with the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG). It used to be that the now defunct would Commission Energy Atomic generously pick up the entire tab for the uranium replacement process. This is not the case any longer. The University is now waiting to hear from the newly formed Energy Resource Development Association (ERDA) which will determine the amount of forthcoming federal subsidization, if any, for the refueling. Cost discrepancy If ERDA funds cover only part of the purported $330,000 cost, the University administration must then decide if any additional appropriations over and above the original $200,000 annual allotment for reactor operations will be provided to the Nuclear Facility. In lieu of the tight fiscal bind which the State University now finds itself in, many groups would likely_express strident opposition to any further depletions of the emaciated University treasury while faculty lines are being cut in the wake of Steep academic retrenchments. It is unclear as to exactly where the money would come from if GRDA shouldered only a small portion or none of the costs. The reactor facility generated around $125,000 in its own revenue through the sale of radio-isotopes to medical concerns. Assuming that $330,000 is the actual cost incurred and that the $125,000 could be put towards the fuel replacement bill, a $205,000 cost discrepancy would have to be made up if ERDA earmarked no monies whatsoever. The question is where will this money refueling come from? If the $680,000 figure is the correct replacement sum then the anomlay becomes even more insoluble. It is not an absolute certainty that the reactor will in fact be refueled. The decision is contingent upon what ERDA does. It is anticipated that after May 2S uranium fuel prices will undergo a substantial hike. If ERDA delays its subsidy decision until after May 25, the University will face the prospect of shelling out even more money than originally anticipated, making things still bleaker. �Pregnancy Clinic fighting Sub Board on rule change by Alan Most Spectrum Staff Writer Members of the Pregnancy Counseling (Human Sexuality) Center are fighting a decision by Sub Board to change the process by which new Center directors are Traditionally, Sub Board has director of the organization in question, an individual of the division director’s choice, and two non-voting staff or faculty personnel “who would clearly have of the programming area or knowledge services.” The spokesperson went on to say that responsibility for the management of any under Sub Board lies organization ultimately with the Board. The spokesperson felt there was perhaps a communication gap between Pregnancy Counseling and A1 Campagna, Sub Board’s Health Care Division director. Campagna was out of town and could not be reached for comment. When Sub Board decided to allow all qualified candidates from the University to apply for director, several staff persons officials were believed Sub Board attempting to choose a director with whom they could deal with easily. According to Amy Francis Millard, current Center co-director, there is little contact between herself and Campagna or Sub Board itself.

If a decision to institute the fee is reached over the summer, it would begin to be levied this fall. According to an informed spokesperson, revenues from the fee would go to Albany and would not necessarily benefit the Placement Office or other offices on this campus. The fee was initially suggested by administrative officials here, who were following the lead of several other SUNY units which now charge for similar services. Placement Director Eugene Martel confirmed that a fee was under consideration, but stressed that no decision has yet been made. Rising costs for paper and postage were cited by Martel as one reason for the charge. buffalo State, Albany, and Stony Brook have instituted fees for sending out placement files, Martel said. He added that his office would query these schools " experience with charging the fee. Martel expressed doubts, ' however, that the Placement Office would actually gain anything by the fee. He said he and his staff are currently examining all factors involved in the proposal to see if it is worth the “bother and cost” it entails. The spokesperson took somewhat stronger view of the proposal, however. He said the University’s expenses will be raised because more people will have to be hired to administer the charge. He added that a maximum of will be raised by the a sum he felt did proposed fee justify putting not students through the expense involved in sending out several files, Dr the inconvenience of waiting on a Student Accounts line to pay the fee. The official went on to say that the only possible motive for the proposed fee is to make Placement “look like a good guy with Albany,” since he felt the fee could not possibly raise enough money to pay for the costs of sending out the placement files. $7,000 — by Amy Dunk in Editor-in-Chief 19, 1976, the House of On February Representatives voted to order its ethics committee to investigate the leak of the Select Committee on Intelligence’s secret report to CBS correspondent Daniel Schorr and to determine whether to take action against the Washington journalist for his role in its publication. The exclusive “Report on the CIA that President Ford Doesn’t Want You to Read” appeared in the February 16 issue of The Village Voice. CBS news on February 23 formally relieved Daniel Schorr of all duties as Washington of the resolution correspondent pending Congressional investigation of his leak of the “Pike Report” to the Voice. Although CBS News President Richard Salant said the network would back Schorr against attempts to require him to reveal his source, he felt the inquiry placed Schorr in an “adversary position.” Schorr remains on the CBS payroll and maintains an office in Washington. But he has been off the air since February 18. Life as martyr With all that free time, Schorr has had many hours to think about what he did. “Suspension like hanging is very good for concentrating your mind,” he told an audience of 500 Friday night in the Fillmore Room. Rather than dewll on “his new life as martyr,” he prefers to fit it into a larger picture. He said it was strange being translated from behind the camera to before it, from interviewer to interviewee. In an hour and a half long narrative, Schorr traced his career through what he calls the “era of disclosure," beginning with Watergate and culminating in Congressional investigations into domestic and foreign intelligence activities. He said he came to Washington, after being a foreign correspondent for many years, somewhat alienated from the country, and he wanted to cover subjects he felt weren't being covered very well pollution, housing, etc. After the national conventions in 1972, his bureau chief suggested he start paying more attention to the Watergate break-in. With all the intuition of a good reporter, Schorr recalled he had said, “I don't think it’s really much of a story." But he covered Watergate for two years and in August, 1974. with the resignation of Richard Nixon, most everyone thought the story was finished. — Add these words tb your basic vocabulary now, whether or not you’re planning a trip to Mexico soon.

Two plus two After reviewing' the coverage of Watergate, Schorr explained, he found many questions that remained unanswered, particularly with respect to the CIA’s connection to the scandal. Then, in September, 1974, Seymour Hirsch of theAtew York Times wrote a story about covert operations of the CIA in Chile. It occurred to Schorr that he couldn’t remember anything important ever leaking from the CIA. So he wanted to do one story on the CIA and Chile, discovering soon after mat it was really a continuation of an old assignment, a veritable “son of Watergate.” “I was confronted with the same secret techniques -and abuses of investigative flowers,” espionage of Americans on Americans and an organized corps developing covert operations, he said. But Schorr found that the Chile story didn’t grab hold of many, that it was too far away from the — - JOSE CUERVO*TEQUILA. 80 PROOF IMPORTED AND BOTTLED BY © 1975, HEUBLE1N. INC., HARTFORD, CONN. UJS. In December, 1974, however, Saymour Hirsch brought home all the dirty tricks developed for abroad in a story on Operation Chaos. Schorr said even President Ford became alarmed and within no time, established a blue-ribbon commission, headed by Vice President Nelson Rockefeller, to investigate CIA espionage operations in the United States. He noted that the Rockefeller Commission only looked into what Hirsch had reported anyway. CIA O.K. The executive branch investigation was followed by Senate and House proceedings. Schorr stated that the Senate issued two reports, one on foreign and one on domestic activities, but because it didn’t want trouble, the report was first approved by the CIA. “The extent to which intelligence agencies have gone beyond what should be going on is quite unbelievable,” Schorr remarked. “It is a black mark on the way government operates that it could have gone on undetected.” After Watergate, though, it seemed as if Americans would not rest until they knew all. Schorr related that in the process, the press uncovered all kinds of secrets. He mentioned the National Security Agency (NSA), an organization with a secret budget believed to be used primarily for decoding purposes. It was discovered, however, that NSA spent most of its budget developing the most astonishing means for to NSA’s electronic eavesdropping. Thanks technology, U.S. leaders can listen to Kremlin leaders in Moscow listening to U.S. leaders in Washington, Schorr pointed out. ‘Secrecy backlash’ Yet things started happening to turn the tables on the trend towards disclosure. The “secrecy backlash” began with the attempts on Ford’s life and was strengthened by the murder of CIA embassy chief Richard Welsh in Athens, which Schorr feels was orchestrated to make CIA disclosures appear responsible for his death. On January 23, the House Intelligence Committee voted 9—4 to make public its report on the CIA. Shortly after, Schorr obtained a copy and for a week, reported highlights of it on the air. The House decided on January 29 that the report would be withheld, heeding the wishes of the White House to prevent anv further leaks. Schorr, left with a copy of a report the House didn’t want published, decided it was a document, paid for by taxpayers’ money, that the people should see. “So I published it,” he said. Where it stands The House voted to launch a $350,000 investigation into the leak, although as columnist Mary McGrory pointed out, it only cost-$450,000 to write the report. The former figure was subsequently reduced to $150,000. Schorr said he has not yet been called to testify, but stressed that he will under no circumstances reveal his source if he is summoned. He firmly believes that it would have been a “fault of contempt not to publish what the House of Representatives wanted us not to publish.” If the House ultimately cites Schorr for contempt, or the Justice Department prosecutes him for violation of the federal espionage law, it will raise freedom of the press and other First Amendment rights similar to those raised in the case of Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers. Schorr is confident that what he did is right and will be upheld. “The press saved this country” in many ways, he said. “It will do it again.” ATTENTION; All Funded Organ izations.

Armstrong, while noting that Circulation average: 16,000 counsel, hospital officials, the Karen’s care has been by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor .,. The Loving Cup Quinlan family decided they wanted to allow Karen to die, and that they would do so by attending authorizing her physicians to turn off the respirator. To obtain authority to do this, Karen’s father went to the local court to be appointed her* official guardian, for the expressed purpose of giving authorization for her treatment to be discontinued. Parody of dignity The attending physicians, the hospital, and the state of New Jersey opposed him. Although Quinlan lost the case, his appeal to the Slate Supreme Court of New Jersey was successful. Armstrong himself feels strongly about Karen’s case, and called her condition “a parody of essential human dignity,” and her continuation on the respirator a “futile use of extraordinary medical procedures." He and the Quinlans concentrated on four points in the case, he said. First, that the withdrawal of her treatment would be to her benefit, since it would allow her natural body processes to take their course. 'Second, the decision to let Karen die by her family was based in religious beliefs and followed consultation with religious authorities, making it illegal for the state not to allow them to carry out their decision. Third, that the 8th amendment guarantee of privacy would be violated if the Quinlan’s were interferred with in such a personal, private, family matter; and finally, that the denial of Quinlan as his daughter's legal guardian would constitute cruel and unusual punishment. Five arguments were raised against tite Quinlans, he said. First, that the court lacks jurisdiction to make a decision on a medical matter of life and death. Second, that it can never be in anyone’s self-interest to let them die. Third, that there is no constitutionally protected “right to die,” although Euthanasia proponants insist that there is a moral one. Fourth, to allow Quinlan to end his daughter’s life would be to interfere with “prevailing medical standards;” and lastly, that the court would in effect be giving Quinlan permission to commit a homicide. , Unparalleled courage Removing Karen’s respirator would not constitute homicide, the court decided, because her death would be “the result of a previously existing natural cause,” and not the result of injury by another person. Armstrong called the court’s decision an act of “wisdom, courage and clarity unparalleled in current judicial history.” Kohl began by suggesting three moral defenses for possible Quinlan Karen r=emoVing respirator and allowing her to die. First would be to deny that to do so would be killing. Second would be to insist that a human in Karen's state is no longer a “person.” Or finally, it could be argued that it would be killing, but not wrong. The bulk of his presentation pertained to his first whether or not allowing point Karen to die would constitute killing. • — What is murder?

The Spectrum Monday, 3 May 1976 . �End of long battle Judge Curtin rules to desegregate schools by Paul Saepierski Spectrum Staff Writer Federal District Judge John T'. Curtin ruled on Friday todesegregate all Buffalo public schools, as a result of a year-and-a-half long class action suit pursued by two civil rights groups and five Buffalo parents. In his decision, Curtin declared what the Citizen’s Council on Human Relations (CCHR) and the Buffalo chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People had maintained for more than ten years that the Buffalo Board of Education, superintendent of schools, and Common Council, and the New York State Board of Regents and its commissioner of education/ the been Violating have Fourteenth Amendment rights of Buffalo minority group citizens by “intentionally causing and maintaining a segregated school - system.” _ i In his report, Curtin charged “a decade or more of intransigence and obstruction, of delay and procrastination” on the part of city and state officials who are against integration efforts, and upheld the plaintinffs’ claim that “intentionally these officials created and maintained in substantial part” the segregation in Buffalo schools. Justification Curtin’s verdict was distributed in the form of a 200-page brief, five copies of which were made available for examination to the news media. Citing the bases of his findings, he listed many of the actions that the organizations and their attorneys had presented to the -court. These included charges that the Board had used discriminatory student admissions' and transfer practices, had gerrymandered school districts, had hired and promoted staff on the basis of race, and had refused to adopt a workable integration plan, that the Buffalo Common Council had obstructed the few integrative steps the Board had taken, and that the Regents and state commissioner had failed to move - effectively to desegregate Curtin termed the Board’s “neighborhood schools” policy (which the defendants had labeled “racially neutral”) a “shiboleth” “disregarded and that was subverted when the Board saw fit.” He added that the state officials’ ‘‘lack of effective action” encouraged the city’s recalcitrance, and that the few efforts by the defendants at “too desegregation insignificant to alleviate the harm done.” Laying blame Curtin also found that the federal and city government housing agencies, the real estate industry, and the common council were at fault in much of Buffalo’s housing segregation. Because of this, the city defendants could not use the existence of segregated housing as an excuse for maintaining segregated schools, he said. Although he did not find the state officials guilty of segregative housing practices, he said that the state defendants were not excused by housing imbalance either, because, “in the final analysis, [the Regents and commissioner] are responsible for education in New York.” Curtin was less specific when it came to ordering remedies to racial segregation. He forbade the defendants to take “any further in violation . of the action plaintiffs’ rights under the Constitution.” (In a class-action suit, this would include the rights of all persons in the same category of “class” the court sees the plaintiffs to be in, and is therefore applicable to most minority persons in Buffalo.)

TODAY at 8:00 by Bob Rose Spectrum Staff Writer The Office for Credit-Free Programs of the Division of Continuing Education is a little known entity on campus but for the 10,000 yearly participants in the program, the office has provided a wide variety of educational alternatives on a non-dredit basis. The Office for Credit-Free Programs, located in Hayes Annex B, was founded in 1965. Since then, it has developed hundreds of activities which feature courses, conferences, institutes, seminars, workshops and lecture series. Over the past Kerman, “Dogs Course” has been a big success. Ninety-nine adults registered for it last year. Self-sustaining The program also offers educational group excursions. Credit-free students have already travelled to the. Soviet Union and Scandinavia, and this year they will be going on an archaeological adventure to Mexico. Fleisher says they are even planning a trip to China for 1978. The Credit-Free Program is almost entirely self-sustaining. The only state appropriation is for The primary funding is the director’s generated via program registration fees and income. expenditures Total credit-free in income-reimbursable accounts for the 1974-75 fiscal year totaled $190,289. Total income was $184,922 resulting in a net loss of only $5,367, as compared to the $52,232 lost in 1973-74. Figures for this year were not available. “Concerted attempts to diminish deficit directions of recent years and to create a climate for profitable operations appear to be succeeding,” says Fleisher. “The office is on the upswing!” couple of years N the entire Credit-Free Program has experienced phenomenal growth. Both the number of participants and the number of courses offered Jiave increased steadily. “In light of the tenuous texture of Western New York’s employment market and economic picture, and because local higher education is under increasingly closer scrutiny by the government, perhaps now more than ever, community adults require and deserve educational alternatives of a credit-free nature,” claims Richard Fleisher, director of the Office for Credit-Free Programs.

A -new computer system to replace the now in use CDC 6400 is scheduled for installation in early July. Final approval was recently granted for a CDC CYBER 173 computer system by the SUNY Systems Development. The new computer is similar to the one presently operating but it provides approximately two and one-half times the “through put” power. The central memory and permanent file space will be doubled for further advantage to the computer users. Telex port capacity will initially double with plans for further expansion in the first year. The CYBER 173 has excellent enhancement potential, according to Hinrich R. Martens, acting director of University Computer Services. The new computer has the capacity to add more memory, processing and disk storage. If sufficient funding is provided, then the academic computing needs of this University will be amply met over the next five years, he explained. Remote batch In addition to the installation of new central computing facilities, the remote batch terminals will be improved so that they can handle twice their present load. UNI VAC 9200/9300 batch terminals in Parker, Goodyear, Bell Hall and the Ellicott Complex will be replaced by the higher capacity COPE 1600 batch terminals. The projected arrival of the new computer systems in July culminates a two-year plus effort to upgrade the computer facilities on campus. Martens indicated. The upgrading process 'almost did not happen due to the statewide budgetary crisis. This University, however, was permitted to reallocate sufficient funds within the legislative budget using nonpersonnel lines, he added. Coordination The entire process of obtaining technical and budgetary approval required a high level of coordination between the many participants, Martens indicated. The staff of the academic computing center was responsible for the evaluation and selecting of vendors. The Advisory Committee for Academic Computing under the chairmanship of James Mclver of the Chemistry Department campaigned for campus-wide support for the project and asked President Robert Ketter to do all in his power to secure the appropriate funds. Access to the new system will be limited through a process as yet to be announced. One of the primary concerns of the process will be to an increase income to University promote Computing Services for services rendered to externally funded research projects. The new equipment requires higher standards of site preparation than the one currently in service, according to Martens. These standards include a different type of “grid grounding” which must be installed in the subfloor. To facjhtate this improvement, computing operations will be suspended for up to two weeks this summer. Every will be made to minimize this attempt inconvenience, he added.

Monday, 3 May 1976 �Ju/y 4th Some trouble to be expected this year by Mike McGuire Campus Editor Several million Americans will converge on either Philadelphia or Washington, D.C. on July 4 to celebrate the nation’s Bicentennial, according to official estimates. They will see pageantry and exhibits, and listen to speakers expound on their view of the country’s past 200 years. For those who are already somewhat weary of Bicentennial hoopla, however, two alternative Bicentennial programs will be presented the same day in Philadelphia and Washington. In sharp contrast to Philadelphia’s official Bicentennial program featuring President Ford, a coalition initiated by the Vietnam Veterans Against the War (WAW) will be presenting a program revolving around the slogan, “We’ve been carrying the rich on our backs for 200 years, them off!” The let’s get “celebration” starts on July 1 and culminates on the Fourth. Sweat and toil The WAW, which is joined in the July Fourth Coalition by the Unemployed Workers Organizing Committee (UWOCC), the Revolutionary Student Brigade (RSB), and the Revolutionary Communist Party (RCP), takes the view that American history has been a continuing saga of sweat and toil for most people while the rich have led a life of ease. Sheryl Gordon, of the State University at Buffalo chapter of RSB, emphasized that participants will not be demonstrating against those who attend the official program, but that they are opposing a “handful” of rich families who run this country. While people like the Mellons, DuPonts, and Rockefellers call for unity behind their exploitation, said Gordon, the demonstrators will be linking up the various struggles now going on into a unified mass movement. The two main demands for the m£rch will be “Jobs or Income Now!” and “We won’t fight in rich men’s wars!” Gordon asserted that the two “running scores” of American capitalism have been wars and unemployment. Wars serve to relieve unemployment, she said, but unemployment invariably follows each war to form a “war-crisis-war” cycle. Link up struggles According to Gordon, a number of local workers’ caucuses and other local groups will join the national groups for the demonstration. Philadelphia Gordon characterized the planned actions as “sometimes militant, and disciplined but well-organized.” Gordon saw the Phildelphia demonstration as an excellent way for students fighting cutbacks to assert their solidarity with other victims of the current economic crisis. ‘The crisis is hitting students here and elsewhere mostly in the form of cutbacks, but it’s hitting the rest of America in the form of unemployment, wage cuts, cuts in public services, the threat of war and so forth. July 1 A is an opportunity for us to link our fights as one common struggle against the rich who rule this country.” ‘The demonstrations are a declaration that we won’t just fight for crumbs, but that we’ll fight instead to get the rich off our backs altogether,” Gordon �, concluded. — Washington events Alternative Bicentennial events will also be held in Washington under the sponsorship of the People’s Bicentennial Commission (PBC). The PBC has attracted national attention through its “counter-celebrations” of Paul Revere’s ride and the Boston Tea ■ Party. The group’s activities will start early in the morning of the an Fourth with inter-denominational memorial service at the Jefferson Memorial, in honor of all the men and women who died in “people’s struggles” across America in the past 200 years. The crowd, which the PBC estimates will number about 4000 at this point, will then march to the Capital (The Mall) to hear a number of speakers. Speakers currently scheduled include Dr. Benjamin Spock, doctor; Barry baby noted Commoner, environmentalist; Ed United the Sadowski of Carol Steelworkers; Tucker-Foreman, head of the Consumer Federation of America; Karl Hess, a former Goldwater speechwriter who has since changed his views to become a leading libertarian philosopher and writer; Black feminist lawyer Flo Kennedy; educational reformer Jonathan Kozol; Eqbal Ahmed, an authority on Third World revolutions; Philip Foner, are still not available.

Monday, 3 May 1976 The Spectrum Page nine . �EditPriol Guest Opinion by A Committee of The current proposal to charge students a fee every time their "placement file" is sent out to employers or graduate schools is based on pettiness without purpose. After spending upwards of $10,000 for tuition and living expenses over four years in order to obtain an undergraduate degree, the student would be forced to wait on yet another line and fork over yet another $1 each time his file is sent out. If Placement decides to institute this fee, nobody on this campus will benefit. All money raised will go back to Albany; Placement will not be able to use it to expand its services or even to rehire the secretary there who was recently retrenched. Students could lose as much as $20 in placement fees and more forms will have to be processed by Student Accounts which will help neither their staff not the students who wait on their apparently interminable lines. As Placement Director Eugene Martel points out, however, this proposal is not yet reality. It will be discussed this summer, when at least some of us will be here, and decided on in time for next fall. If it should be implemented, we can expect in the next few years to be "nickeled and dimes to death" first a fee will be charged for testing, then counseling, and eventually for nearly any necessary campus - — serviced Curiously enough, the idea did not originate in some bureaucrat's office in Albany. It started on this campus, and students, faculty and staff should ensure that this pointless proposal die a quick death here. for students to create one of their own.

Monday, 3 May 1976 Concerned Art Students On Friday, April 30th, The Spectrum published a front page article describing the present controversy at the Department of Art concerning the installation of an extensive security and surveillance system. We feel a necessity to expand this issue so that its implications can be felt throughout the University community. The security system in rather, the question is not an isolated event first surfacing of a system planned (in part) for every building to be appropriated, rennovated or built on this campus, (and ultimately, throughout the entire SUNY system).

I’ve never heard of an album cover having denotations so it would be hard for that album to have connotations. 1 thought those terms only applied to words. Two questions come to mind; What is the overtones, The third attempt to conduct the Student Association (SA) Financial Assembly ended virtually seconds after it began Friday afternoon when a group of angry students upset the tables in Haas Lounge. This is the third year in a row that childish shenanigans have disrupted what were supposed to be rational public discussions of the SA budget, and frankly, enough is enough. Adjournment of the meeting Friday now means the budget is completely out of the hands of the student body, subject to final approval by the Executive Committee only. Students who saw fit to carry on last week may pat themselves on the back for forfeiting the much sought after opportunity for "open government." The SA Executives and the Financial Assembly gave students every possible chance for open hearings but there was no reason for them to subject themselves to humiliation and the threat of physical violence any longer. They are, after all, students like anyone else. They do not under any circumstances deserve the kind of treatment they received at the hands of other students. The circus comes to town every year.

This is highly unfair to the half of undergrads who will not be in Buffalo then (and can’t be due to the expense of travel, motels, etc.). Commuters have a tremendous advantage and will be able to close many courses out. I do not want to dampen your day, but instead make you think about your long-distance friendships.

Steven London answer the feel compelled to I misrepresentations of Murray Nussbaum’s letter on Wednesday, April 28, 1976 regarding problems of commuters. First, Mr. Nussbaum begins with the understatement of the year that commuters are slighted at this University.” Then he goes on to state that dorm students are not getting a bargain regarding SA activities. FACT: While it is true that a large chunk of the SA budget goes to athletics, NYPIRG, CAC, which commuters may benefit from, I have also found that few Buffalo area commuters are involved in these organizations. In addition, involvement in these groups is not just motivated by a desiry to help others, but it is also true that when these people apply to law or graduate schools, having worked in NYPIRG looks very good on their applications. FACT: Mr. Nussbaum cites one organization where commuters are the major users. The organization is APHOS, which is a club for pre-med, pre-dental, or other health careers. He then haphazardly decides that because this one organization has many commuters, then all clubs have the same proportion. NONSENSE!!! Go to a few club meetings or any meetings of the student government and you will find almost no Buffalo area commuters. So I'm afraid Mr. Nusshaum's “gut feeling” is dead wrong. “ Swing at the puck only ... To the Editor I am writing this letter as a reaction to last Wednesday’s article on hockey violence written by Larry Amoros. In it, Mr. Amoros suggests that the action taken by Toronto DA Roy McMurty in a recent hockey game was inappropriate. I disagree. Severe hockey violence, such as the recent melee in Toronto, must be curbed somehow. Obviously, the NHL has not been doing the job. I don’t know how long Mr. Amoros has been a hockey fan, but he would do well to consider hockey violence in the past. I can only recall my first hockey game. 1 was seven years old when 1 was taken to Madison Square Garden for the first time. In the middle of the second period a fight broke out. Both teams cleared their benches and engaged in a stick swinging dual that lasted at least 15 minutes. This is not hockey. I admit that violence in hockey has toned down since 1 was seven, but 1 feel that it is on the rise again. If Clarence Campbell (Commissioner of the National Hockey League) does not take any action, then someone, such as the Toronto DA, has to. Mr. Amoros claims that hockey is a violent game by nature. So is football, and you don’t see O.J. Simpson slam a football in an opposing player’s face when he gets angry. It is true that the Flyers’ style of hockey is successful on the ice, and it is also true that they “pack the house” in every arena they play in. But to use these reasons for sanctioning brutal violence suggests that the end justifies the means. Finally, let’s consider a large percentage of the hockey audience, namely the children. Girls and boys tend to emulate sports heroes. Does Mr. Amoros want children.to copy the tactics of a Dave Mr. Nussbaum insists that Norton Hall is not a dorm. While it may not seem like a dorm to Mr. Nussbaum. it sure does to commuters. Dorm students are provided bus service to and from their dorms at regular intervals which enables them to take advantage of the activities going on in Norton. C'ommuters have to have cars, or lake buses to get to Norton. Not all commuters have cars or can get them and taking a bus late at night is not a very appealing or necessarily very safe thing to do in a large city whether it be Buffalo. New York. Syracuse, or Albany. Also, a city bus does NOT lake you right up to your door nor is it scheduled very regularly late at FACT; n ight. FACT: Mr Nussbaum is right in saying UUAB is an area ripe for reform. Thanks to former Commuter Coordinator Boh Wallace and Steve Ferst (who is from the dorms and is a strong supporter of commuter rights) UUAB must now spend 10 percent of its funds during the day so perhaps more commuters may benefit from UUAB’s films and activities. It must be noted, however, that a similar proposal setting the limit at 20 percent was soundly defeated. Since commuters are 55 percent of the Forbes or a Dave Schultz? I suggest that hockey violence must be toned down. If the League will not do it, then people such as Roy McMurty must. The game will only improve Skating, good checking and with less shooting instead of stick swinging, will become the prevailing factor. Larry Myerson iiBe&i, co&ewAvve na/e m/ero FACT: The SA has a rather bizarre way of defining commuters. As a matter of fact there is no mention of commuters in the SA constitution; at le?st where the Constitution explains how At-Large Senators will be elected. In this very important section they use the terms “dorm” and “off-campus” residents. An off campus resident includes not only permanent 12 month residents of Western New York who may have lived in the Buffalo area all their lives, but also former dorm students who have moved into the student ghettos of Minnesota and Lisbon Streets and who live here only eight months a year. Obviously the three groups have different interests and problems. After all, commuting from Lisbon Street is not exactly commuting from South Buffalo, Tonawanda, or Lockport. Also, not surprisingly, most temporary off campus residents still identify more with dorm students and not with permanent life-long residents of Western New York. Mr. Nussbaum’s final comment is whether the organizations are offering services attractive to commuters. A discussion of that could take forever but a few points. First, many UUAB films can be seen on the Late Show. Also, many of the movies reflect the personal view of those in UUAB which is a preference for bizarre foreign films. As a writer for the Commuter Comment wrote: “They’re fascinating the comedies generally take place during the Depression and their dramas are hilarious. The audience usually has a very entertaining time trying to decide if the movie is supposed to be a drama or a comedy. WHERE DOES UUAB FIND THESE FILMS ANYWAY???” Why can’t more popular films be shown at a lower cost? And why can’t they be shown in the afternoons on weekdays and not just on weekends? And when UUAB does hold an afternoon event, why isn’t it better publicized? Just once couldn’t they give some more thought to commuters who provide 55 percent of the mandatory fees? I'm afraid, therefore, Mr. Nussbaum is wrong when he says that our feelings are based “solely on emotion and little fact.” They’re based on emotion and an awful lot of facts. We’re simply not too thrilled about the fact that we are getting ripped off for S67 which we could put to better use. Next time I suggest that Mr. Nussbaum not just leaf through the Commuter Comment but read the whole paper carefully. He might just learn something about - • commuter problems.

Angela Davis: An An tobiography (Bantam Books, paperback, SI.95. 399 pp.) "It is hard to resist feeling curious about her as an individual. For 1 she appears so unusually intelligent, articulate and well-grounded in her beliefs that one almost instinctively looks to her for explanations one wouldn V expect from others. ” Angela Davis was bom in Alabama, and felt the deadly poison of racism seep into every facet of her life. As a young girl, she recalls moving into a white neighborhood with her family, and being kept on their “side” of the street. ” So writes the New York Times. It certainly appears to be an exceptionally high compliment for the Times to give to a militant black woman and leading member of the Communist Party. Angela Davis is deserving of high compliments, and people will look to her for explanations about social, political and economic problems. But the praise of the Times leads people to see Angela Davis as one who stands apart from other people, an image that Angela believes is false. She writes in the Preface: When a black family moved in on the other side (of town) their house was blown up by an a hundred times “explosion louder than the loudest, most frightening thunderclap I had ever heard.” She. recalls restaurants, lunch counters, schools, theatres, neighborhoods, restrooms and other public places for' “Whiles only." “Most Southern Black children of my generation learned how to read the words ‘Colored’ and White’ long before they learned ‘Look, Dick, Look’." “I felt that such a book might end up obscuring the most essential fact: the forces that have made my life what it is are the very same forces that have shaped and misshaped the lives of millions of my people. Furthermore, I am Convinced that my response to these forces has been unexceptional as well, that my political involvement, ultimately as a member of the Communist Party, has been a natural, logical way to defend our embattled humanity . . . with a little twist of history, another Angela visited friends of her family’s in New York during the while she summer, and experienced other forms of racism there, she was glad to be relatively free from the vicious practice of segregation. Yet. in New York, she learned that the image of Northern social harmony was a myth. Angela was about eight at the time, and the McCarthy era was in full swing. She remembers that her friend’s father. James Jackson, went into hiding because the authorities were (poking for him. He was Black, and a leading member of the Communist Party Angela writes: "Because I was too young to know what a Communist was, the meaning of the McCarthy witch hunts escaped me. As a result, I understood only what my eyes saw: evil white men out to get an innocent Black man. ” Discrimination, attacks and murders of black people occurred all around her, and was the most common experience of most black people. An opportunity to attend a progressive high school in New York came along, and Angela took it. Here, she met black and white men and women who were working together to fight for equality and justice. She learned about socialism in her history classes, and when she read the Communist Manifesto “it hit me like a bolt of lightning.” While not completely understanding every passage or idea. Angela writes that she “began to see the problems of Black people within the context of a large working-class movement.” The bombings, beatings, abuse, and bloodshed that she had seen lor so many years “tell into place. What had seemed like a personal haired of me, an inexplicable refusal of Southern whites to confront their own emotions, and a stubborn willingness of Blacks acquiesce, became the to inevitable consequence of a ruthless system which kept itselt alive and well by encouraging spite, competition and the , , oppression of one group by another. Profit was the word: the cold and constant motive for the behavior, the contempt and despair I had seen.” What moved Angela most, “was the vision of a new society, without exploiters and exploited, a society without classes, a society where no one would be permitted to own so much that he could use his possessions to exploit other human beings.” Finished with high school, she enrolled at Brandeis University. Yet. here she felt alienated, and began reading Sartre and the [existentialists. She knew she had 'to change her circumstances, and (decided to go to school in Europe. When she got there, she (attended the Eighth World [Festival for Youth and Students 'in Helsinki. Finland, and met (progressive and communist youth 'from all over the world. She threw herself into her [Studies, which included a growing 'interest in Philosophy, but was (constantly reminded of the events 'taking place in America.

Soon she was involved in the case of George Jackson and other prisoners form Soledad, who were charged with murdering a prison guard. While the state had little evidence against them, Angela was convinced that these men were singled out because they had been leaders in the fight to improve prison conditions. During this time, George Jackson’s younger brother Jonathan, armed other prisoners who were on trial in a courthouse in Marin County, California, and they attempted to escape. Prisoners and the Judge died in the shoot-out that followed, and the ownership of one of the guns was traced to Angela Davis. One of the largest searches ever began for Angela, and she was finally apprehended and went on trial. Much of her autobiography goes into details of her flight, imprisonment, and the movement that was built to free her. a Today, Angela is Co-Chairperson of the National Alliance Against Racism and Political Repression, and concludes her book with a plea for others to get involved in the free political movement to prisoners. Specifically, she mentions Reverend Ben Chavis of North Carolina, Donald Smith, and Marie Hill, all of whom are behind bars today.

WORLD-WIDE SOCIAL PROBLEMS — reunion Can we find a moral order for all mankind through world wide studies of social problems? In this course, we try. We take five basic core values as given: 1) helath, 2) pleasure, 3) science, 4) justice and 5) peace. We take 36 working measures of these five values. Most of these measures involve twelve basic social problems: 1) mental illness; 2) alcoholism; 3) suicide; 4) child abuse; 5) women in trouble; 6) teenagers in trouble; 7) old people in trouble; 8) divorce; 9) income sharing; 10) economic progress; 11) civil strife; and 12) war. We review hundreds of recent, little-known world wide tests of theories about what increases or decreases the readings of these 36 objective tests through statistical correlations or readings measures among primitive tribes and modern nations. We even try for a glimpse of human destiny. By scanning the record of world wide human evolution. By sketching as best we can the probable outcome of mankind's travail a stable world order. — — We look carefully at three general systems of cultural dynamics: 1) Social servomechanisms. 2) Natural selection arenas. 3) Accumulation processes.

(NYPIRG) has been chosen by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to serve as consumer representative at the FTC’s upcoming hearing on funeral industry practices. “NYPIRG has long been concerned with the lack of protection offered to consumers of funeral services,” said Donald Ross, Director of NYPIRG, “and participation in these hearings offers a way for us to help end some of the industry’s worst abuses.” The funeral industry has been under fire from consumer groups since publication of The American Way of Death by Jessica Mitford in 1963. Mitford exposed practices in merchandising funeral goods and services. NYPIRG studies conducted throughout New York State revealed that some of the worst practices continue to flourish unabated. Funerals are the third largest expense, behind purchase of a house and car, that most consumers ever confront. “But unlike other major purchases, the prices are usually not carefully scrutinized. Funerals are arranged at a time of shock and grief when consumers are particularly vulnerable,” said Val Washington, the attorney representing NYPIRG at the FTC hearings in New York City. Casket controversy A dignified funeral with adequate services should cost hundreds of dollars less than it does now, NYPIRG contends. “Of course many people may choose to pay more to obtain a more lavish funeral,” adds Washington, “but the option to cut out some of the elaborate extras should be there.” NYPIRG believes that deceptive practices, such as fetaXatelTSI failure to disclose the availability of cheaper caskets and the misrepresentation of legal requirements, deprives many consumers of the full range of choices. The rules proposed by the FTC were designed to stimulate “an industry too long insulated competition in the funeral industry free from the realities of the enterprise system” according to NYPIRG. chosen As the organization to represent consumer interests, NYPIRG will seek to document the particular need for laws requiring disclosure of prices, legal considerations and accurate merchandise descriptions. NYPIRG also supports the FTC’s proposed sanctions for “deceptive practices” of funeral directors. NYPIRG has published a series of guides for New York City, Binghamton and Syracuse dealing with funeral costs. In other cities, organized opposition by funeral directors thwarted publication of similar guides. - Advance registration Advance registration materials are available to all undergraduates in Diefendorf Hall from now until May 7.

Upon discovery of a theft, the tapes would be viewed. However, inventory at the Art Department is only taken twice a year. opened at the discretion of the secretaries. No communication system has been planned. The system has another major drawback. The basement, used by both art and architecture students, has no security planned for it and was described as “the most vulnerable area” by one student. Once the system goes into effect (the date has not been set) access to the basement will be limited to the elevators. It is entirely possible that an outsider to gain entrance could the elevator with a card-carrying student or faculty member. Once in the basement, where there is no video or alarm system being installed, anything can happen. The planned installation of an extensive security system in the art building, Bethune Hall, at 2917 Main Street, has generated a major controversy among Art Department administrators and Ail wired up Burglar alarms are scheduled students.

A main sculpture studio on the fourth floor where torches and welding machines are used has no extinguishers. In the basement there is a room which, according to a number of students, has an exhaust fan which does not draw in any fresh air. As a result, students frequently complain of headaches and of not being able to work for screen press many hours. As for First Aid, there is According to Robertson, the art department has virtually none. done to provide immediate relief for him while waiting for Campus Security. Another question raised by the students was over an "effective means of communication” to summon Campus Security or other assistance in the event of an emergency. There are no campus phones in the building. The only phones that are in the building are in the secretaries’ offices and on the first floor, which is a pay phone. In the event that an accident or some other emergency occurred after five o’clock when the offices are locked, a student would have to rush down to the first floor to use a public phone. At a meeting on Wednesday, over one hundred students ‘‘no unanimously voted confidence” in the security system as planned. In addition, student representatives were chosed to attend the next faculty meeting. Objections by groups stall approval of SA budget by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor Despite attempts to emphasize the parlimentary rules for “structured debate,” Financial Assembly Chairman Steve Speigel recessed a chaotic meeting before any of the Finance Committee’s proposed 13-page budget was voted on. A number of student service and minority organizations and clubs, displeased with the cuts in funding recommended for them by the Student Association (SA) Finance Committee’s proposed resolutions which would have recalled, the Athletic and SA office budgets. Both received substantial increased over last year. After the meeting had run for two hours, however, a recess was called until 2:30 p-im yesterday afternoon so that SA and organization representatives could meet and discuss the situation. Although no SA officials were available to comment on the meeting, one organization spokesperson fold The Spectrum little was settled, and another heated meeting was expected yesterday afternoon. NYPIRG One of the special interest groups most severely cut back by the Finance Committee was the New Uork Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) whose funding was reduced from last year’s $25,000 to $14,500, after requesting an increase to $35,000. Committee, however, said he did This amount, according to believe this was a serious NYPIRG Director-Elect Paul possibility. “There was a NYPIRG Magiotto, would have allowed the here before there was a NYPIRG organization to continue to Central,” he remarked, referring to'the former Western New York function at its present level. The biggest reduction in the Public Research Group organization’s budget was (WNYPIRG). Should NYPIRG attributed to a complete cut in “shut down,” he said, there were staff salaries. According to many other places the money Magiotto, for NYPIRG to lose its could be allocated. legal counsel and nuclear power When questioned during the consultants Marvin Resnikoff would cause the organization to Assembly meeting, SA Treasurer virtually “shut down.” Besides the Carol Block said in preparing its limitation it would put on proposed budget, the Finance research projects, Magiotto said Committee faced three limiting such low funding would probably conditions: 400 Fee Waivers lead NYPIRG’s central office in reduced SA’s income by $26,800; Albany to refuse Buffalo’s there has been no increase in the membership. mandatory fee in three years; and 15 new clubs and organizations One member of the Finance are seeking funding Dummy me When proposing to cut the SA office staff salaries line from $51,000 to $29,452, NYPIRG member David Lennet said he was endeavoring to be “just as stupid as the Finance Committee” to get the Assembly members to object to its treatment of NYPIRG. He pointed out that NYPIRG receives Resnikoffs services for about $8000 a year, which, with benefits, is slightly more than SA’s three full-time secrataries make each. Included in SA’s 11 salaried positions are the salaries of student office workers. Black said these account for about $9000 of the $51,000. �- ■.» * / - - Atf-J' ; Commentary Carter moves closer with Penn victory In the complicated race for convention delegates, Carter pulled another 'surprise, coming Former Governor Jimmy away with more delegates than Carter of Georgia took another either of his main rivals, Jackson giant step toward achieving the or Udall.

Halberstam won a 1964 Pulitzer Prize for his Viet Nam news dispatches for the New York Times and has been nominated for the Pulitzer on two other occasions. He is however, best known for The Best and the Brightest, a book published in 1973, about the Lyndon Johnsopadministration. Halberstam first appeared in the limelight as a Viet Nam war correspondent in 1962. He played a key role in exposing contradictions in the stated American war policy in the early years. His expositions on the Diem regime were the source of much embarassment for American officials and his reports on the combat use of United States “military advisors” was the cause of great concern at the White House. Kennedy irked * President John F. Kennedy personally asked New York Times publisher Arthur Ochs Sulzberger to remove Halberstam from his Viet Nam reporting role in 1962. Sulzberger would not accede to the White House request and even postponed a scheduled vacation for Halberstam so that it would not appear that the publication was bending under Administration pressure. Two years later Halberstam won the Pulitzer Proze for his Viet Nam reporting. After leaving the New York Times Halberstam vent on to publish several books, including One Very Hot Day, Ho, The Making of a Quagmire. The Unfinished Legacy of Robert Kennedy, and the already mentioned The Best and the Brightest. He is cureently writing CBS & the News: The Power and the Profits, which discusses the degree to which political power is possessed in our society by those who control access to information. After thanking the audience for attending his lecture and not the Buffalo Braves basketball game, Halberstam announced that he would give his own “update” on the topics he is most often questioned about. In explaining the attention given to the Woodstein team (Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein), he said what is different about their new book is not their methodology but the high level of work energy and talent that went into producing the book. Sexy Nixon Halberstam said that unlike the published excerpts from Newsweek, protraying a “sexy backdoor relationship” between Nixon and his wife, Woodstein’s book is the story of a government in collapse. It describes a “Hitler’s Bunker” situation with a bright,/ ambitious Alexander Haig caught between a demented President and the problems of the daily administration of a government. Halberstam added a footnote to his commentary on Woodstein, saying that hte movie of their first book is “terrific.” It was in his opinion the best movie ever made on reporting and like many of his colleagues he admitted to being jealous of them. “It would be my luck that if they did a movie about my work as a journalist, I would be portrayed by Walter Mathau and not Robert Bedford,” he said. On the subject of Barbara Walters’ new position as anchorperson on the American Broadcasting Company network news at an annual salary of $1 million, Halberstam complained that his highest salary at the New York Times even after winning the Pulitzer Prize was only $16,000. “I do not think she is classically a journalist, but an interviewer, indeed she asks the questions that a lot of very average citizens would ask,” he said in explaining the major area of her reporting prowess. The oldline broadcast journalist is being replaced by glamour kings and queens, especially the “Redford-like” local anchorman, charged Halberstam. The coming of Walters to national news is bridging the gap between the oldline network news and its local affiliates. However, the knowledge that the anchorperson has a hairstylist on call and arrives at the studio in a chauffer driven limosine cannot improve at all the quality or credibility of the news broadcast, he said. Halberstam then alluded to a recent Congressional study of the CIA which stated that as many as 50 journalists also work for the CIA. “I hope that their names will be leaked to Schorr, Sy Hirsch or Carl Bernstein so we can rid ourselves of those wearing two hats,” he said, adding that the nation needs a good intelligence operation but, it should not interfere with the reporting of news. The news media will have to be its own watchdog he explained. Peanut farmer makes good In reflecting on the Pennsylvania primary he said that 20 years ago Carter would still have been shelling peanuts in Georgia. He did compliment Carter’s excellent use of the mass media in attracting favorable coverage to his campaign and getting votes. Despite the full array of Party Machine and labor leaders supporting Jackson, this support could not be transformed into votes because now modern television media gives the candidate access to the voters that in the past were reached only by the ward boss. This is a major part of the drastic changes in the American lifestyle in the past 30-40 years according to Halberstam. What is more astonishing, “going to the moon or being able to watch a man on the moon at home?” he asked his audience. With this increase in news reporting technology of the past few years, the office of the Presidency has become more powerful than ever, he said. Halberstam referred to this new broadcast power of the chief executive as an “unwritten electronic amendment to the Constitution.” The opponents of the President cannot possibly get equal media time, this is so serious because the founding fathers never envisioned the “President or Soveriegn” of all the people “parachuting” into everyone’s home when they developed the office of the presidency, he explained. The media vs. the President Real political party control of the electroate was ended in 1960 when the Kennedy-Nixon debates were aired on national tv, according to Halberstam. He cited as an example of how far this has extended as the 1972 Committee to Re-elect the President, in which the Republican Party did receive the campaign donations, but an organization directly responsible to the President collected and dispersed the campaign funds. In the two major obstacles faced by the presidency in the last 16 years (the Viet Nam war and Watergate), the major adversary of the President was not the opposition in Congress, but the new? media, according to Halberstam. President Johnson at a convention of journalists in Chicago the day after announcing he was not a candidate for re-election, blamed the press for the American loss in Viet Nam, he added. Nixon was obsessed by the power of tv, observed Halberstam. The former President desired to control his tv exposure to such a degree that in his campaign Haldeman was able to limit the amount of opportunities the press would have to photograph Nixon to one a day instead of the usual four or five, This obsession continued through the Nixon presidency, even to the point when the Watergate scandal was closing in. Nixon, Haldeman, and Ehrlichman still felt that skillful manipulation of the press could save them, he added.' • --j , TIME IS RUNNING OUT FROM The - GET THE COPIES YOU NEED OFFICE OPEN DAILY 9 AM -r- 5 PM — x\| i - 355 Norton Union j Student Senate vote on new amendment by Cindy Kaplan Spectrum Sports Writer The Student Senate passed an amendment to the Student Association (SA) constitution in its final meeting Tuesday, changing the status of the Minority Affairs Coordinator and International Affairs Coordinator to voting members of the Executive Committee. Previously, the two positions, along with the Commuter Affairs, held non-voting seats, the Derby. This excitement is what the Derby really is, the horse race Treasurer. Also expressing approval of the amendment was Frank Jackalone, SASU delegate and former SA President. No one spoke against the proposal, and it was passed 27 to 1. The Executive Committee is an emergency action-decision making body composed of 13 members of SA: The President; Executive Vice President; Vice President of Sub Board; Treasurer; the Directors of Academic Affairs, Student Affairs, and Student Activities and Services, the three SASU delegates; and the Coordinators for Minority Affairs, Commuter Affairs and International Affairs. The new amendment changes the number of voting members of the committee from 10 tO 12. Minorities pick coordinator Also passed was an amendment stating that, “The Minority Student Affairs Coordinator shall be elected by the Minority Groups, with the approval of the Student Senate.” All the other members of the Executive Committee are either elected by the students in a general election or else appointed by SA. In other major business, the Student Senate approved with some opposition all of the appointments made by SA President Steve Schwartz. The procedure for appointments to SA positions, according to Dennis Black, chairman of the Personnel and Appointments Committee, is that the Personnel and Appointments Committee (composed of nine Senators and the Executive Vice President) interviews all the applicants and hands down a recommendation to in most cases the SA whomever is making the appointment President. Only those committee members present at the interviews of all candidates for a position can vote on the recommendation. The President then appoints someone to the position. The Student Senate must approve all presidential appointments. — Dirty politics? Ron Washington’s appointment as Director of Public Information was finally passed but after an accusation by Senator Jill Siegal that “dirty politics” was involved. Since only two members of the Personnel and Appointments Committee were present at all the interviews for the position, and each had a different preference (Executive Vice President Steve Speigel favored Ron Washington while Chairperson Block favored Marty Schwartz), the appointment was made by Steve Schwartz. Schwartz explained his decision saying, “I granted both candidates Ron’s publicity work at Bronx second round interviews. Community College and his efforts to join the CUNY (City University of New York) schools together determined my choice.” Appointments were approved for three people as board members of Sub Board Inc.: David Brownstein, Art Lalonde and Judy Sack. Schwartz’s appointments were made even though the Personnel and Appointments Committee, in this case represented by Spiegel alone, suggested Howie Cohen (Inter-Residence Council President) in place of Brownstein. Schwartz was approved as the fourth board member of Sub Board, but only after an objection by Senator Mike Jones who said, “The President should be a full time job . . . I don’t think the President should be a member of Sub Board.” Abdul Wahaab also questioned whether, “Steve can be effective on Sub Board.” Schwartz justified his own appointment explaining, “It’s important to have the President there to lead the committee as a carry-over from SA to Sub Board.” (The fifth undergraduate board member is Jon Roller, who was elected Vice President for Sub Board in last month’s SA elections.) Several other presidential appointments were also passed by the Senate: Russ Fustino as Sub-director for the North Campus, Judy Garelick and Steven Blumberg as assistant treasurers, Laura Bartlett to the Parcel B Advisory Committee (Parcel B is the planned shopping center for the North Campus), Janet Evans as Director of the Speakers’ Bureau, and David Brownstein and Joyce Levin as SASU Coordinators. Four clubs were officially recognized by the Senate. Alpha Epsilon Delta (an academic club for pre-med majors). The University Biochemical Association, the Women’s Awareness Alliance and the Creative Arts Therapy Club can now function as approved student . . groups. J Friday, 30 April 1976 .

When asked her particular reactions to getting high, A. Comet “When I’m highlcantalk blurted: by Cliff Dickson Spectrum Staff Writer Have you ever, in the depths of a marijuana induced coma, found yourself unable to tie your shoes? Pot smokers often suffer from Marginal Concentration Activity Disfunction (MCAD), the inability to perform simple tasks which are ordinarily handled without conscious effort. This phenomenon is prevalent at many institutions of higher learning, this University notwithstanding, where, many rpeople say, students espouse a “chemical clearly wcllnotreallybut yes lean sometimesbutit’s likelcanthinkclea rlybutallthewordsyouknowdon’tseemtocome outright.” Stardom bound cafe guitarist and voice of his generation G. Zuck spoke from Red Jacket Quad of the particular way in which “disfunction” affected him. “1 was appearing at a small club in the Village, very stoned, doing a ibally intricate guitar piece. It was going along smoothly when about half-way through I dropped my pick. It was very embarassing, but I retreived the pick and continued. A few bars later I dropped it again; by this time I was almost crying. After the third fumble I was so frustrated that I smashed my guitar to the ground and stormed off. I guess that’s how Pete Townshend started.” philosophy.” MCAD has received little attention from niedical science. Marijuana studies have, in the past, been designed to test limits of endurance or reaction speed (i.e. the effects of electro-shock torture on the cannibus user as opposed to on the non-user). Consequently it is left to the “afficionado” to his own study unconscious coordination. (Three times daily however, is not necessarily an advisable rate of experimentation.) If stapling fingers and bumping into stationary objects have become part of a daily routine, then interest should be taken in MCAD research. Studies have been conducted, but not yet to the extent warranted by the growing scope of “disfunction.” In Fargo Quad alone, 17 spilled bongs were reported last week, leading noted drug researcher S. Berg to comment: “It seems that the. problem gets more acute later in the year. The effect of the drug, Tetra-Hydro-Cannibinol, the lactive ingredient in marijuana is culmulative with regard to MCAD. Two semesters at this University and many students are no longer physically capable of taking a shower. 1 just wonder why they always spill bongwater on my bed.” Manipulating gym suits B. Wise of Richmond Quad, another researcher, has, after years of intensive experimentation, reached several conclusions regarding the nature of MCAD. “I’ve found that people can play tennis or basketball stoned, but are often less successful in changing into their gym clothes than actually playing ball.” Wise designed a study in which the low concentration coordination of 10 pot smokers was compared to that of 10 non-smokers. Two circles were formed and drug a joint placed at an arbitrary starting point in each. The reefer was passed from hand to hand; whether the smokers or non-smokers finished 10 laps first would determine if marijuana usage effects marginal concentration activity. When informed that the experiment was scientifically invalid because the smokers had the advantage of practice, Wise said, “What do you expect from an English , Smokathon At a recent Ellicott smokathon, 400 in Buffalo Self help program aids Vietnamese refugees When vast numbers of Vietnamese refugees entered the United States last summer, over 400 settled in the Buffalo area. Realizing that these people faced many confusing language and cultural barriers, the Vietnam Student Association and the Intensive English Language Institute (IELI) helped form a small volunteer group called the Vietnam Self-Help Program. Initiated last October with about 30 members, the prt 'ram is the only Vietnamese refugee organization in the country without any local, state or federal funding. Although groups on campus are involved with the program, access to classroom facilities are not allowed because it isn’t officially affiliated with the University. ' Nghia Nguyen and Le Thi Xuan Ha, a senior at this school, both helped establish the program. For her efforts, Ms. Ha received a community service award from the Student Association, citing her services to the community. Teaching the rudiments The self-help program is presently being conducted in the Newman Center, where classes and small group discussions are held every week. individual tutors are assigned to work on a one-to-one basis with Often a Vietnamese immigrant. Because the program has no money, textbooks cannot be purchased. But IELI Director Stephen Dunnet has allowed access to the Institute to help tutoring English. According to co-coordinator Helen Funnicello, the program gears itself towards high school or college age people. The program concentrates on teac ing these young adults the rudiments of the English language, and acquainting them with the social lifestyle of Americans. Father Dominic Luong, a Catholic Priest, runs a small Vietnam self-help group on Deleware Avenue. It is here housewives, small children and older people find assistance not available at the Center. anonymous Bongwater on calculus His failed experiment led Wise to observe “We’re getting pretty good at passing joints these days because joint handling has left the realm of marginal concentration activity to become the subject of primary mental effort.” He was, however, able to offer a hard clinical example of MCAD. I was playing with my Bong without realizing it was full. I spilled about a quart of bongwater on my open calc, book.” Was he distressed?*! just tore out the pages, set ’em ablaze, and snorted them right up.” Many drug researchers feel that MCAD might be affecting American politics. One noted expert, who wishes to remain could be symptomatic of MCAD. We have no idea what actually happens aboard Air Force 1. There is no way of knowing for certain without a full physical and mental examination of the President, but it is a matter of public record that he is aware that his son and daughter get high. It is not uncommon for parents who reach an accommodation with their children on the marijuana issue to experiment themselves.” We won’t be certain about MCAD until medical science shifts into high gear and studies the problem.

At an estimated cost of $9000, the network of video cameras, burglar alarms, and card access systems is simply not justified by the thefts that have been reported to Campus Security in the past four years, thefts which barely total $1000, according to Security records. Additionally, the system already has a number of obvious loopholes and flaws which will prevent it from serving as an effective deterrent against possible theft. The basement, for example, which is used by both art and architecture students, will not be profited by the security hook up. Unauthorized persons could easily obtain access to the basement by riding on an elevator with a card-carrying student or faculty member. The apparent determination of the Art Department Chairman to have the system installed seems way out of line, especially since the very people it is purported to protect object to the project vehemently. There are rumors that should the security system work in Bethune Hall, similar operations will be installed in other buildings on the Amherst and Main Street campuses, once again limiting student access. Would Hayes Hall be one of the electronically surveyed buildings? A large number of art students have been struggling continuously to block the security system since its coming was announced two weeks ago and over 100 voted no confidence in the system in a special meeting this week. Cutting art students off from their materials at night is like locking the UGL at 5 p.m., and the former is exactly what will happen unless they are all given keys to the ten rooms that will be locked after hours. With all the money that has been cut out of the budget this year, it is inconceivable how the University can spend $9000 on a security system that the art students clearly do not want and that will probably not afford the type of protection intended. If the University officials want to improve the building, perhaps one way they might start is by installing a campus phone that is accessible to art students after the administrative offices close. The way things are now, a student working late at night on the third or fourth floor who notices anything suspicious would not have a telephone to use to call Security. The nearest telephone is a pay phone on the first floor. If the student had no change, then what would he/she do? There are too many problems with this security system for the University to justify shoving it down students' throats. It creates a needless expense, one that the University can certainly do without. - The Spectrum Friday, 30 April 1976 Vol. 26, No. 80 Editor-in-Chief - Amy Dunkin Managing Editor Richard K or man Advartiaing Managar Gorrv McKnen Business Manaoar Howard Greenblatt — — - David Raphael Brett Kline Graphic* Bob Budiansky Jill Kirschenbaum Layout C.P.

We, the Graduate Students of the Department of Spanish, Italian and Portuguese, are unanimously opposed to the proposed merger of our Department with the Departments of French, Germanic and Slavic, to create a Department of Modern. Languages. This arrangement has already been implemented in various other universities, notably the University of Rochester, where it has resulted in administrative and teaching inefficiency. At this University, three years ago, a merger of the Departments of French and Spanish had been proposed for economic reasons, but on discussion, it was found that this economy was merely specious. Now, the proposal seems to be on a larger scale, as it includes the Department of Germanic and Slavic. This proposal appears also to be made principally for economic reasons. The posts of two chairpersons would be saved, and one individual would be placed in charge of all the departments concerned. But when one considers that each department would retain the semi-autonomy, its Associate Chairpersons, and have separate committees, the resultant economy would most likely be non-existent. Besides, the reason usually advanced by Albany for the merging of departments is that they are not functioning properly. This is surely not the case with any of the departments concerned. SINCE ALL OF THEM FAVORABLY RATED IN THE LAST S.E.D. REPORTS. Perhaps, the administration is tacitly acknowledging that its proposal is arbitrary, that its decision would not redound to the benefit of any of the departments concerned, by handling this matter in such a clandestine and undemocratic manner. In the French Department, according to the / information of students, there was no discussion but this decision was handed down as a “fait accompli” late last week. Within the Spanish .Department, despite the requests over the last six months for more information, and for an open discussion, by at least two professors, nothing was discussed. The reason advanced was that this matter was not immediate. Suddenly, last week, the cat was let out of the bag, when someone mentioned that the administration had not only agreed upon but was ready to implement the merger. What we strongly protest against is not only this secrecy itself and its undemocratic overtones, but also the fact that this secrecy has stifled the voicing of cogent arguments for the maintenance of these departmental structures as they exist at present. The Spanish Department has struggled for a long time to create a department of national and international standing, to develop a viable graduate program, to foster avenues in which the views of both faculty and students could be heard. A1 of this would be in jeopardy if we were suddenly submerged under the rubric of an amorphously organized Department of Modem Languages. We are also sure that the Departments of French and German would Iik£'t6 fetain their identity, autonomy, and safeguard their reputations and their graduate programs. We urge, therefore, an end to secrecy, misinformation and authoritarian handling of this matter, and maintain, it should be brought before all faculty and students involved and openly discussed in a democratic manner. Our agreement is necessary before any attempt at amalgamation should even be entertained. .• The Graduate Students-of Spanish, Italian and Portuguese Watch that bike To the Editor. Roughly two weeks ago I rode my newly tuned bicycle from my palatial suite on Bailey Avenue to engage in two relaxing hours of swimming fun at crowded Clark Hall Pool, leaving said bicycle locked to the bicycle rack in front of Clark. I neglected to quick release my quick release Weinmann front rim and lock it to the frame a sad and tragic error. Needless to say, upon leaving Clark I found -.nay, I did not find my quick release hub still attached to my frame. It had been quickly released. Plunged into the depths of sobriety, I only notified Campus Security, who were very helpful in giving me a ride home with the mutilated machine. While being helpfully whisked home I thought “well, since this has happened it probably will preclude anything else happening to my bike, but how can I afford a new tire, wheel, hub etc., etc., ad infinitum? Tonight I rode the same bicycle, with a very shoddy and wobbly borrowed front rim, to - Diefendorf to see Ben Bur. Now, get ready, because this is the interesting and thought provoking part of the letter; When I left the film to ride home I found that someone had taken by Brooks saddle and replaced(!) it with a very shoddy plastic seat. But that’s not all, folks! While in the process of pilfering my seat the culprits removed my saddle bag and U.B. license plate, and attaching them to my new seat, a process taking 5-10 minutes. c b' So the moral of the story is four-fold: t. Your best bicycle lock is your eyes. 2. If you lock your bike anywhere take every precaution to keep ail the parts assembled in one ; ; spot when you return. 3. If you lock your bike anywhere expect to lose something you can’t lock. 4. Whether or not you ride a bicycle, if you see anybody hovering over a locked bicycle with a monkey wrench or similar looking device while on campus, ASK QUESTIONS!

Shut Lei Chen Less ranting To the Editor: This letter is in response to David Slive’s letter which appeared in the April 23rd edition of The Spectrum. David’s letterreferred to the speech made by Jimmy Carter in which he used the term “ethnic purity.” In his letter David informs us that “Mr. Carter’s wanton use of the term “ethnic purity” constitutes a bellicose manifestation of racism. I would be very interested to know how David found out that Mr. Carter meant this to be a “bellicose manifestation of racism.” Perhaps David has personal access to Mr. Carter and called him up on the telephone to ask himTThe only bellicosity that I can detect is in David’s interpretation of Mr. Carter’s remark. It would seem that David himself is bellicose ' and wishes to project it onto Mr. Carter. Mr. Carter explained himself in the news conference he had subsequent to making this remark. He fully intends to support equality of opportunity for all ethnic groups in America. He does not intend to forcibly destroy all local neighborhoods. Mr. C rter is nof a segregationist. This can be deduced by looking at his actions while Governor of Georgia. Perhaps David should do a little less ranting and a little more listening before he jumps to conclusions. I resent very much David’s comparison of Mr. Carter’s statement to the “Hitlerite concept of racial purity.” It is very unfortunate that David has such a poor understanding of who Hitler was and what he stood for. One should not go around labeling everyone with a different viewpoint as a Nazi. This obscures the true meaning of Naziism. It was one of the vilest and most destructive movements ever conceived of by mankind. David should do some reading about what took place in Europe during World War II. Perhaps if he understood the true meaning of Naziism, he would not tryt to turn it into a cliche to be hurled at anyone with whom be happens to disagree. David should not try to impress us by quoting (out of context) from Harold Laski and Arthur Schlessinger. Instead he would do better to try to straighten out his own thinking. Norman Frankel �*• r-5fc Reggae is whitewashed for the American music industry by Walt Behnke Special to The Spectrum The wave of reggae fever, forecasted by nearly every member of rock journalism's to cogniscenti sweep North America for the past five years, is apparently at hand. The current Waiters' tour as well as Jimmy Cliff's successes last year (consummated by his appearance on the Paul Simon-Phoebe,Snpw benefit) are reasonable indicators that the industry is, for better or worse, ready for rock-steady. The question that still haunts many of the music's more 'underground' audience, those hermits subsisting on a dearth of available imports and a few domestic releases, is. precisely what aspects of reggae will survive its assimilation into the multi-billion dollar American music industry, and which will be / * suppressed? Honky reggae There seems to be little doubt that the entertainment complex of promoters and record companies will find it in their best interest to play down some of the music's more radical aspirations in avor of a strictly formal There's an interpretation. indication of this on the Stones' new LP Black and Blue. The cover of Eric Donaldson's regpae hit of 1971 "Cherry Oh Baby" sans rudness and patois, rivals only Patti Smith's "Redondo Beach" for its honkey anemia. Other examples of reggae whitewashing such as Clapton's "I Shot the Sheriff," the Dead's Blues for Allan album and even Paul Simon's "Mother and Child Reunion," the first to actually use Jamaican musicians, offer little evidence that white musicians will be willing to accept reggae on its own terms. Like the New Orleans “Jump" music and the urban R&B of the fifties, the roots and conditions under which reggai has come to be will be de-emphasized for the sake of promoting a mass culture entertainment. The language, the • simplicity, certainly the politics, the basic rudeness of reggae will be asked to give way to the calypso-like effect that can be superimposed over any rock song, by relocating the bass accent from the first to the second beat and including a sharp, muffled rhythm guitar style called "cuffin." Presley not Boone Like the early black music of America's 40's that sprang from the ghettoes of Chicago and Detroit, rubbing up against jazz and the blues, migrating through the south to mysteriously influence parts of the Texas backwoods, and the ports of louisiana, reggae grew by leaps and bounds, the unlikely offspring of diyerse parents. Throughout the late 30's and 40's, calypso served as the- English language music of the Caribbean. Giants like the Mighty Sparrow are today performing what the tourists of those days listened to amidst the hullabaloo of the Caribbean heydays. During the 50's the music mated with the West Indian Mento and West African sounds and grew into dance music at the black clubs under names such as Ska, Rock-Steady, Blue Beat, Skank, and Reggae. It was the result of people like Cliff and Desmond Marley, Dekker listening to AM radio broadcasts from the states playing thie early R&B of the Drifters, Huey Smith, Jewel Aikens and Fats Domino. As translated, the beat changed, the tempo slowed to match the climate, but R&B it was and still remains. To make it more complex, Marley admits to being greatly influenced by the rock and roll of many of America's white musicians, mainly Presley and Rick Nelson (both of whom treated black music more on its own terms than most of their peers, i.e., Pat Boone and Chubby Checker), and considers the Beatles roots for his brand of _ reggae. The thing is that reggae may be of outgrowth the one Afro-American culture that whites have had a productive and appreciable role in forming. Both from a technical and promotional standpoint British musicians and friends, notably Chris Blackwell and Perry Henzell have made reggae's viability in the world market as well as in native Jamaica. But more importantly, it is the influence upon Jamaican music of American pop, by that time a complex of cultural strains, that enables it to compete in this amazingly sophisticated and muscular market as a progressive music Fundamental reggae Marley himself, son of a Jamaican woman and a British this symbolizes man, best complexity of roots and influences that puts reggae at the top of the list of cultural treasures for those seeking to be bailed out of the numbing legacy of the 70's. And for the skeptics, it is Marley more than anyone else to watch. Rastman Vibration is a remprkable response to those harbingers inside the industry (critics) who see it as a matter of time before these highly idealized Wailers go the way of Bob Dylan and the Dead, towering their expectations for change, seeking private lives and the opportunity to release undisturbing quality work all under the auspices of a widened maturity. Marley has played a trick. The 1976 tour has been a guaranteed sellout for a year (except here for some reason). The- 1976 album has been guaranteed gold. Yet, instead of releasing an album as rich and sophisticated as Natty Dread or Burnin', Rastman seems to be opting for some more basic formal structures with more attention to the conceptual principles his work has been about since the late 60's. Political reggae The lyrics belie new concerns for Marley, that were not so much in evidence in the past seven albums. Agriculture is thematic in at least three of the new songs. Not the growing of herb (grass) as in the past works, but the non-Rastifarian agri-business of corn and the oppressiveness of growing food for other people while your people starve. Two songs "Rat Race" and "Johnny Was" abound with urban themes: waste; young kids and political violence abound. One track, "Niglht Shift" even deals with Marley's experiences working at the Wilmington Chrysler Plant tor the three years |'65-'68) before he re-patriated to Jamaica fleeing the American draft. Another curious fact is that for the first time in the seven (or eight) Wailers albums available, Marley hasn't penned all the songs. Bob Marley actually wrote only two, "Night Shift" and a mellow ballad "Cry to Me." The remainder were written by band members. "Johnny Was," a beautiful ballad in the tradition of "No Woman No Cry," comes by way of Rita Marley, ascending reggae star in her own right, member of the I-Threes who accompany the Wailers on tour and the mother of some of Bob's eight childrne. The dynamic Barrett Brothers, formerly of the Upsetters, legendary reggae stars, authored three cuts including "Want More," a really tasty skank song, warning against back-stabbers and nay sayers, and "War," adapted from a California speech by Haile Selassie I . The title cut as well as "Roots", "Rock." "Reggae" an updated political version of Toot's "Do the Reggae," were written by V. Ford, Rasta-mon and friend of the family. With Rita he wrote one of the most powerful songs on the album, "Crazy Baldhead," which at first seems to refer to the British skinheads who are largely responsible for supporting reggae throughout the past decade, but on close listening alludes to general colonialists in who exterminated the indigenous Arawak indians, (the Spanish) and settled the land with African and Indian slaves (The British). and build the cabin and plant the corn Didn't my people before me Slave for this country Now you look me with a scorn And you eat up all my corn We gonna chase them crazy baldheads Out of town. / / / / Mastafarian culture faithfully interpreting the biblical ban on the combing and cutting of men's hair rightfully pinpoints all non-Rastas as baldheads. Wailers' Connection There is however, despite the diverse authorship of the tracks, a cohesiveness to the album that confirms Marley's presence. The lyrics to Wailers' music always more rhetorical than more prayerful than poetic; this (inked to the seems imagistic, rock and roll the Wallers band represents is the key to their Marley is a uniqueness. personality on record and especially of in person extraordinary person, with an aggressiveness and elan that forces people to regard him in the same light as Jagger or whoever. It is Marley's control and personna that pulls the band above the pedagogical postures of Burning Spear, a recent reggae release on Island, into the fresh and open air of mass acceptance; yet at the same time holding to a tangible enough principle of Rastafarian lifestyle to prevent them suffering from the innocuousness of another debut band Third World. (Both albums are recent releases and recommended for rasta-fledglings). The politics in Marley's music exists within it. You find yourself conceding to his principles of right and wrong as your body responds to the infectious rhythm of skank. Danci is first and foremost what a reggae experience is about and there's no way to learn unless you see the I Threes shuck and sway or Marley wrapped in his amp cord from half dozen pirouettes, shaking his locks and singing songs of Jah! You need only be sympathetic to a good time, have a bit of belief that life can improve with human effort, that the chains of racism block all our paths and that ethnic culture can touch you on its own terms; no further ideology is unbelieveable powerhouse required. �7?vyv Sit-coms to news TV displays macho in by Phillip Krause EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY residential treatment camps Television is one of the most pervasive perpetuators of th? myth of male dominance in our culture. The men who run the industry treat women whether they are on television or in front of it as if they were something to be taken care of. In its attempt to give women what they want (or, at least, what they are supposed to want), the medium has become a kind of electronic sugar daddy adding yet another oppressive ring around the feminist collar. Although television tries to cater to all segments of the product-buying population by reducing viewers to the simplest of stereotypes, it is especially cruel to women. Just look at the kinds-of programs the industry spews out for their consumption. Between her bon-bons and fan magazines, the typical woman is supposed to endure a daily barrage of insipid quiz shows hosted by disc jockeys turned smiling studs, schmaltzy soap operas with their made-to-order sentiments, and daytime "variety" shows populated by Merv Griffin rejects. The only kind of development a television-watching woman is supposed to experience is that of her bust, as supervised by Jack LaLanne or some other fleshy Philistine. — — GMAT • • Women on television don't fare any better either. For all its talk about how many more opportunities there are for women to portray "realistic" characters on television than in films, the industry treats its women today basically the same as it did twenty years ago. Maude is nothing more than Lucy Ricardo without Clairol; and Alice Kramden (in The Honeymooners) had more independent thoughts than Rhoda will ever have. Most of the women you see on television are hawking household products in commercials, feeding straight lines to their video spouses in situation comedies, or taking up domestic space in order to humanize one of the medium's (too) many police-types. Even those female characters "independent" enough to have their shows named after them are always provided with a steady supply of reassuring males at (frail) arm's length. The fact that they do not have to marry one of them is a concession to the women's movement. Speaking of concessions to the women's movement, last week's news that ABC had succeeded in luring Barbara Walters away from NBC and The Today Show has to rank as one of television's most acknowledgements of the emergence of the visible and expensive 'new woman' in today's society. The network, basking in the fiscal sunshine of its vastly improved ratings, has decided that it could afford to take a chance with a woman (shudder, shudder) as co-host of its evening news program; hopefully, it can also afford to pay her the one million dollars a year (for the next five years) that her contract calls — • & ECFMG GRE * DENT.

She will be merely a five-million-dollar piece of window er, picture tube — — — — dressing. There is nothing inherently "sexist" about this. All the networks use their anchorpersons to project an image. CBS has Walter Cronkite and his fatherly persona, while NBC uses the bespectacled John Chancellor and all of his intellectual implications. In choosing to temper the wry, midwestern common sense of Harry Reasoner (and his silver cowlick) with a woman as co-host (would the whole show be too much for the "little lady?"), ABC, instead of "honoring" the new woman, is actually demeaning her. To the network's way of thinking, there is no real difference between the they are just programmed differently "new" and the "old" woman and respond to other stimuli.

Earl Hershberger Spactrum Arts Staff Possibly the only person who can really appreciate the fire and decadence of the works of Franz Liszt, nineteenth century composer and piano virtuoso, is another great pianist. What makes a pianist great is his ability to instill his fervent enthusiasm for a piece into his audience. Even if this were the only criterion for greatness, Andre Watts would be remembered for the rest of time. Fortunately, Mr. Watts is more than a consummate actor; he is a skilled technician of the keyboard. Without going into the phoney-sounding superlatives of so many other critics, l#t me attempt to convey to you what I have seen and heard of Mr. Watts. At the age of twenty, Mr. Watts won the hearts of Buffalonians with his brilliant interpretation of the Macdowell Piano Concerto. I was there and remember the ovation he received; my hands still get sore when I think The various themes of the piece reflect life (especially that of the nobility), the eventual tViumph of Death, and the dual possibilities of the afterlife worlds. It is a difficult piece in that the emotional range is so very wide and can not literally be covered from the experience of a living artist. Mr. Watts keeps Buffalo waiting too long between visits. There is a definite need for more performers of his calibre. The younger generation of performers that Mr. mark to aim for if they are to Watts represents has a standards that this man has set. fulfill the virtuosity Michael Tilson Thomas led the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra in an exciting, and somewhat heavy performance of Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 5 in C-sharp minor. It is refreshing to see a conductor, who is usually placed on some sort of pedestal by his audience, make a small, but human, mistake. The Mahler piece was conducted brilliantly by the young conductor. It is a long piece and Mr. Thomas, did you have to sit down very tiring, but on the job? Anyway, bravo and well done. how long we, an enthusiastic and appreciative audience, stood there literally begging I im to return to the stage to accept our adulation. Now, ten years later, I still want him to return to Kleinhans' stage and play again. Franck's Symphonic Variations for Piano and Orchestra could be an interesting piece but nothing to rave about. The interpretation it received at the hands of Mr. Watts last Sunday and Tuesday was probably enough to start a reviva) of the music of Franck. If that revival does occur, it Will be due solely to Mr. Watts. Ultimate challenge Totentanz for Piano and Orchestra by Franz Liszt is a real test of a virtuoso's skill. Each of Liszt's works can be construed as a challenge of interpretation to the performer. Mr. Watts not only met but surpassed the challenge. The Totentanz, literally the "Dance of Death," is said to be Liszt's musical answer to the fresco by Andrea Orcagna in the Santa Groce in Pisa. - Cassavettes 'Bookie' has style but little substance « by Bill Maraschiello Arts Editor "You have no style," Ben Gazzara tells a friend in the early minutes of John Cassavettes' newest film. The Killing of A Chinese Bookie. "I do business with you, but you have no style." Bookie itself makes a different, but much more fatal mistake. It has a surfeit of style the gangly, improvisational style that is both Cassavettes' trademark but less substance than a cat's cradle; lots of string, and his albatross — — but no cat and no cradle. Husbands and A Woman Under The In his previpus, best films Cassavettes dealt with plots which needed very little Influence emphasis to be clear to the viewer. In fact. Husbands' American-macho odyssey actually benefited from the loose grip. Woman's tale of alcoholic schizophrenia. Cassavettes' technique is to depend on the momentary creations of his cast, trusting on their evocations of everyday speech to clarify what's happening. (The theory, apparently, is that the "plot" of life is never really explained, so why should the plot of a film that reflects life?) — - Scattershot Bookie, however, is a gangster film, and a modern one as well. A traditional crime film like The Maltese Falcon can get complicated enough without the conscious introduction of metaphysics into an already complex dramatic scheme. It's the kind of plot that has to be the worst kind for Cassavettes explained in detail to register he Vet it's the one uses. proposes. How complex does it get? After an attentive viewing, I still had to consult another review of the film to understand what had happened. I knew that the graying, jowly, Frank Sinatra-ite Cosmo (Gazzara) was the owner/operator/pimp (confusion already) of a sleazy New York nightclub, and that he had a hefty gambling debt to pay to friends in low places. I'm told Gazzara shoots the "Chinese bookie" to settle that debt, but it wasn't the film that told me. — Unanswered questions accumulate: who was the "bookie?" How did Gazzara find out about his task? How exactly does Gazzara relate to the cheap girls who work at his club? Why is almost a third of the film devoted to the club performances, which are as exquisitely boring as any other sixth-rate soft-porn show? Speech: impediment Even the chatty stretches of dialogue (poorly recorded as well) skirt around telling us what we need to know to make sense of the film, without ever doing so. The incessant barrage of extreme close-ups throw us up against the cast's faces, but everyone is speaking bilge and including Gazzara and Seymour Cassel, both actors no one is acting of some talent who are totally wasted. The rationale of Cassavettes approach is that it brings out "natural acting," in a way, it's poetic justice that all the performances in Bookie are horrid. — Any technique of creation in any medium is, of course, a means to an end: a tool to be used to create. In Bookie, CassavetteiLtechnique is used solely for its own sake, without achieving its purposeVa tragedy figure, of penny wisdom and pound foolishness.

As part of the production, there is a question-and-answer period after each performance, in which the actors and director, through use of a translator will answer the audience's questions. "What is it about?" says Szajna. "It is about the agony of our world and our immense optimism. It is the awakening of man and not the putting him to sleep." Tickets for RepUka, on stage from April 30 through May 23, are available at the SAT box office and the Norton Ticket Office..

"Making this film was the best time of my life. You can't imagine what it's like to have Mozart's music in the studio."

Prodigal Sun • �Inserts': degenerate dignity h by Amira Lapidot Spectrum Arts STaff Inserts is described as "a degenerate film, with dignity" in the ad, and it's true. Inserts is a film adaptation of the one-act, one-set play by John Byrum, who also produced the movie. It stars Richard Dreyfuss as the magnificent film producer of the 1930's, the Boy Wonder. But, unfortunately, he is no longer a boy, although he remains at least from John Byrum's point of view, quite a wonder when it comes to ingenuity in the field of creative film-making. At this stage of the Boy Wonder's life, he has succumbed to staying at home, dressed in a lounging robe and slacks, drinking Martell cognac, and making porno flicks. Although Inserts is rated "X," it is by no means lewd, lascivious, or vile; it is a "day in the life of ." story portraying the making . of silent, black and white, hard-core pornography. But more than showing the mere making of the violently lustful films. Inserts portrays the man behind them the despair in his certain knowledge that he is no longer the wonder he was as a boy, and that he had reached fame too soon and cannot keep up with it. Above all, he has no interest in the razzle-dazzle plasticity of Hollywood. The Boy Wonder realizes that both his backers and his audience have ceased to view actors as human beings, with feelings, emotions or talent; they see them as pieces of meat. Using his creative talent in attempting innovations, he takes this to extremes . — by giving his audience body and between-the-legs shots instead of faces. Inserts is not maudlin or melodramatic; on the contrary, every occurrence is taken in stride by the characters even the death of Dreyfuss' star actress from an overdose of heroin before the completion of the film. All the actors and actresses perform excellently. All but Dreyfuss have stereotypical roles: Harlene is the horny heroin hooker; Rex the Wonderdog is a spineless quiff, who thinks more of himself than his probable IQ merits; Big Mac is your all-too-shallow meat patty; and last, though certainly not least, is Miss Cathy Cake, a cute college grad with pancake breasts, who is willing and eager to give up anything and everything to become a celluloid heroine. Insertts can be understood on at least three levels. First, and most obvious, it is a story about how a once-great man makes porno films. Second, it shows how a certain man makes a specific film and why it comes to the audience in that particular form. Third, it is the story of the man himself: what forces affected him and, to some extent, how his mind works. The film is psychologically (not emotionally) depressing; it doesn't leave us crying but it definitely leaves us thinking. The audience gets a glimpse of a man who sees himself as a has-been, and is now in abysmal hopelessness; he cannot understand why people continue to seek him out. But it ends on an upbeat, showing a glimmer of hope in the distance. Inserts is well worth one's time and money. It's playing at the Evans Theatre. — Harriman Theatre Shakespeare a la Grigsby does okay by Kenneth Norman Spectrum Arts Staff Lov€'s Labour's Lost, presented at Harriman Studio last weekend and also scheduled for tonight through Sunday, was a must-see not only because it is the only Shakespearean play to be staged in Harriman in the past ten years, but because of the publicity posters in which the director's name stands out as prominently as that of immortal author William Shakespeare. Did Clyde Grigsby plan to make innovations to render this production as Grigsby-esque as it is Shakespearean? We knew in advance that Gribsby had made a change in the time period. The action was to take place in the early 1900's, between the Victorian age and World War I. We also know that the cast list included some colorful performers of note. This precluded its being just another Shakespearean play in the cliche "over-enunciation, grand gesture, huge facial expression" mold. The stage and set caught my attention as soon as I walked in. The stage slopes downward and the color scheme is a bright green and soft white. The attractive garden setting features ivy climbing up white latticed porches, creating a fresh spring feeling that almost made me believe that it was spring despite the near-freezing temperatures in the studio Sunday night. Spring songs Love's Labour's Lost, presented by the SUNYAB Department of Theatre in conjunction with the Center for Theatre Research, features the music of Ray Leslee, a fellow in the Department. His music's light texture adds to the springtime feeling. The comedy begins with Ferdinand, the King of Navarre (Kneland Stickles) and his three lords, Longaville, Dumaine, and Berowne (Lawrence Turner, Barry S. Cohen, and John B. Emmert), agreeing to spend three years in earnest study abstaining from the company of women and fasting. However, King Ferdinand has a commitment to lodge the Princess of France (Marcia Wiesenfeld) and her three ladies, Maria, Katherine, and Rosaline (Phyllis Seaman, Sally Bagot, and Theresa DePaolo.) Of course, it isn't long before they discover each other writing love letters to the maidens and agree that the oath should be broken. The ensuing courtship attempts provide the bulk of the remaining action. Turner and Cohen, who were outstanding in The Alley Between Our Two Houses, have flashes of brilliance but John B. Emmert comes through with an outstanding characterization of the witty Lord Berowne. His verbal pacing is excellent and does not seem to say one extraneous word. The threesome are perfectly cast as the young student types, with Stickles as the equally youthful professor. % Secrets of success In the same manner, Marcia Wiesenfeld has a motherly dominance over her three ladies. Moreover, she puts a certain depth in her character that makes her a person we would like to see and know more of. She seems always to have some secret thought, making her much more of a person than Shakespeare intended. Closeness with all of the characters was effected by Grigsby's switch of the time period to one in which the fashions were closer to our own. Thus we could put ourselves into the action more easily than with a more distant time period. There is a lower-class love affair in the play between Don Adriano de Armado, a Spanish Army officer (Ted Kryczko), and Jacquenetta, a common wench (Lorelle D. Chizen). Another comic highlight of the production was John Simonetti as Costard, a Chaplinesque vagabond kicked from scene to scene causing confusion whenever he appears. The costumes, prehaps the most lavish of any University play so far, are a huge asset. The lords and ladies wear bright pastels which combine with the set and colorful lighting to create an appealing picture which can be seen again at'Harriman Theatre STudio from April 29 to May 2.

Their first three albums had been almost entirely done with acoustic guitars and an occasional piano. Beginning with Holiday, the first Martin production, the guitars and pianos were heavily accompanied by an orchestra. It's been that way ever since. I didn't mind the change that much, since their production needed a bit of a jolt, but Hideaway is a good example of how this new production can go too far. The songs are catchy as usual, the lyrics are predictable but sometimes it sounds like America is being backed by either the N.Y. Philharmonic or even worse.

Sure, they always had a cult following among heavy metal fans, but the first four albums, which were viewed so poorly by critics everywhere, had a certain flair which still sets them head and shoulders above any of the Bad Companies, ZZ Tops or B.T.O.'s which are so popular these days. The rock press laughed long and hard at the millions who bought their records, obstinately refusing to listen to the tasteful (yes, I said tasteful) amalgam of instrumental pyrotechnics and deftly produced acoustic interludes of which the well-received "Stairway to Heaven" is only one example. As fate would have it, "Stairway" was a huge success, Zeppelin became respectable. Page and Plant dropped their veil of secrecy and started acting like other rock stars, and before long they were setting attendance records in football stadiums throughout the globe. Presence, their seventh album, is a reversion into raunch; a gratingly authentic example it sounds better from a of rock-festival music quarter of a mile away. Even with popular taste as bad as it is, were Zeppelin a new band and this their debut album, they would probably have trouble competing with the dozens of bands that have copied their earlier style. (Unless; of course, they came onstage dressed in glitter Gestapo uniforms or something a good gimmick still makes the turnstiles spin.) But then again, if the Zep hadn't been around in the first place, we might not have as many Blue Oyster Cults and R.E.O. Speedwagons bidding for our mastoid bones today I disagree. of the seven cuts, Getting back to Presence five of them sound exactly alike; guitar-bass-drum shuffle riffs similar to "Out on the Tiles" (from Zeppelin III), but lacking that song's drive. The remaining two songs are distinguished only by their divergence from this pattern. "Achilles Last Stand," the album's opener, is a long power chord saga highlighted by a Mahavishnu-esque guitar intro and some dissonant (read sour) vocal work. The last cut on side two, "Tea for One" is (ahh yess ...) a slow blues, with a minor-key guitar solo which almost gets off the ground, but not quite. .. . — — ... - Robert Plant's once amazing voice, which has been going for a long time, is now completely gone doubtless too much screaming of "B-b-b-baby" and "N-n-n-na-na-na-yeah," which is about all he docs on this album.

On Presence, he has completely foresaken keyboards, but sounds as if he could stand a little retraining on the bass. He does nothing but follow Page's riffs note-for note in agonizing unison, and the overall texture, missing both overdubbed guitars and keyboards, is frightfully thin. And then there's John Bonham the Jack Benny of the drum kit, whose consistently simplistic drumming never really bothered me when the rest of the band was more active.

Friday, 30 April 1976 . The Spectrum Page thirteen . �.. J Rolling Atones, Black and Blue (Rolling Stone* Records) Jaded Jagger and raunchy Richard, the Glimmer twins, are dusting off their legend. The Stones are off and rolling. It's been quite a while since these satanic jesters have come up with a platter of polyvinyl that approached their early and much vaunted period of violent and dark rock 'n roll rage. The Stones, of that time, intuitively lived out the perverted and snarled nightmares and dangerous visions of teenagers drowning in a pimpled vortex of hormonal overload. Their music communicated a hypnotic randiness clothed in nihilistic abandon and delivered straight from the pulsing pelvis; rebels with no inkling of a cause. The perfect band for the tempestuous and turbulent times which erupted from the sleepy brow of the fifties and exploded into the teenage cataclysm of the sixties. But times change and time has its way with all of us. The vision of the adolescent is slowly shed for a catholic getsalt. The Stones haven't aged gracefully. Black and Blue is further proof that they will never again rule rock with the mystical power of divine right. Altamont is gone and so are the days of the Stones achieving an everlasting satisfaction. Black and Blue is essentially.what the title implies: a collection of derivative black music and blues. There's reggae, disco, funk, and the expected quota of guitar sleaze churned out by Keith, Woody and friends. Most of the songs are about a year ol; and almost all of them were recorded in Munich. Could this be the Stones' European album? The reggae influence of "Cherry Oh Baby" is a far cry from the palatial beef halls of Munich. The attempt at reggae is sloppy and sophomoric, lacking the slickness and tightness that should have characterized it. Even Keith's Bob Marley t-shirt can't salvage this one. dagger isn't above having a little bit of fun with the tune. On the tag Mick simulates male and female coital coos driving home reggae's major claim to fame. "Hot Stuff," the Stones disco entry, boasts a nice guitar line by Harvey Mandel as dagger pouts inane lyrics with the delivery of a mad hatter. Mick, showing off his London School of Economics background, tosses in a comment about New York, "Ail the people in New York City, I know you're going broke but I know you're tough." The fault with the Stones' stylizations is they never achieve their own identity and as a result remain merely genre pieces. Mick and the boys throw a new wrinkle into the proceedings. That wrinkle, hard as it is to believe, is attempts at harmony. Billy Preston and dagger turn in a competent vocal performance on "Melody" and even "Fool to Cry" is brought off with an uncharacteristically lilting touch. But too often Mick sings as if he were constipated or gargling with Ajax. The album's opus is the seven minute "Memory Motel." Mick and Keith trade off vocal chores as if they unravel a sentimental saga of a lost love reminiscent of a Ruby Tuesday type. "Memory Motel" makes the major mistake of believing sheer repetition can somehow be transformed into dynamic expansion and power. An earlier Stones' song that shares similarities with "Memory Motel," "Moonlight Mile," succeeded in part because it side-stepped repetition and dagger rendered a haunting vocal that perfectly complemented Paul Buckmaster's stirring string arrangement. It would be easy to, but inaccurate, to dismiss Black and Blue out of hand. The Stones, above all else, are professional. The album is listenable and competent but it just isn't compelling enough to surmount its inherent mediocrity. The Stones aren’t any longer pioneers at the forefront of rock. Black and Blue isn't as much a testimony to the Stones' greatness as it is to their durability and longevity. -Kristofer Farkas . / tell you that "you only go around once in life, so it's about time you add some spice" and "all work and The disco phenomenon is in full swing and no play makes a very dull day."

In this song, they The Tramp* Where the Happy People Gq (Atlantic Records) Foot's Gold (Arista) The current Orange County gang in Los Angeles has produced still another Fender telecaster and pedal steel countrified rock band. Dan Fogetberg's back up band has stepped into the spotlight for an album of their own. Fool's Gold has the classic signs for an exciting harmonizing group; Fogelberg and three members shared writing chores, and Souther, Hillman, Furay drummer Ron Grind assumed trap chores. Walsh and producing cohorts John Stronach and Glyn Johns joined to polish the sound of this former stage-only aggregation. Even Johns' old pupil, Eagle Glenn Frey, tried his first hand on the boards. The result has me in a dilemma: I want to like this band with the dynamic stage performance that I have had the pleasure to witness three times, and a production so crisp and sharp you could split hairs with it, and yet, I question if there is any truly original material on this release. Of course, there are some unique cuts, but there has to be something a little more outstanding about their performance. Tom Kelly, the group's bassist, has more than proven himself in the writing department. Doug Livingston, the pedal steel man of the band, has added some nice musical flair. However, guitarist Denny Henson was not the best addition to the band. "Balloon Dick" Richard Bowden would have been a better choice instrumentally, and the group members could surely have handled the vocals alone. The album opens with "Coming Out of Hiding." It's a strong cut, one of the most lively on the album. Of course, Welsh slipped in his electric guitar. There are other cuts with guest musicians, and it's unfortunate that these had to'be the best on the album. The best puts should belong exclusively to the band members. For instance, Don Felder plays on "Rain, Oh Rain," the most outstanding acoustic cut on the album. "Choices" was written with and very heavily influenced by Fogelberg. "Love Me Through and Through" would have been on a Fogelberg album if the lead vocals weren't done by Henson. "One by One" is a nice ballad, but certainly no "Kind Woman," the proverbial originator of the style. It is unusual that the best cut on the album is an exclusive of the band. "I Will Run" complete with a country four part a capella opening, is a class picked number, like "Midnight Flyer." Frey handles the production on this number, and it is as immaculate as on the other two songs he is responsible for. Joe Walsh and Stronach are both experienced boardmen, and Glyn Johns is probably the best British producer. So where is my complaint with this band? Too many people want to step out of the shadow of their lead singer. Unfortunately, most are not as well equipped as the Eagles were when they left Linda Ronstadt, or as Poco was when the Springfield disbanded. They are all outstanding stage and studio musicians, but cannot seem to make it alone. Remember, even Souther, Hillman and Furay was made up of three tremendous talents and something still went wrong. With a few more changes and additions Fool's Gold could be the next Poco. I hope so their stage act indicates an untapped reservoir of talent that could prove most productive. -Barbara Komansky — — YOUR CHILDHOOD AND ADOLESCENCE HAVE PASSED You are as tall as you will ever be, but psychological growth will continue throughout the life span.

All it serves to point up is the notion of the University-as-goldmine. As students, we are a vulnerable lot. We are rooted, both physically and mentally, to the University and its immediate environs. For those who live in the dorms, there is the added factor of food, which if not purchased through Food Service, will more than likely have been bought within a few blocks of the campus. The books that we want almost invariably come from one of two sources and even our recreation, more often than not, will take place on university grounds. In a word, we are dependent. We are not, as some would have us believe, “out on our own.” Csywe cfigrgqd that the ReconJCq-op as, using his tax dollars in ruinous competition. People, those tax dollars were just as much ours. In addition, the Co-op is supported by the mandatory student activity fee. If the records were cheaper it was, for the most part, because our money had already paid for them. We were getting no “deal” and the only thing we were fighting for was who would get our money. Basically, there seems to be two methods employed to divest the student of his money. The mos common is characterized by an attempt to hide the source of the money. Foock Service is a prime example. At the beginning, or sometimes months before the beginning of each term, we pay a large sura of money to FSA to insure that we will receive our meals on a somewhat regular schedule. Just because we do not pay separately for each meal, and just because we on a contract, does not mean that we have to put up with poor quality. The only reason for granting a monopoly to any organization on campus should be in order to provide cheaper and better service. There should be no profit taken anywhere along the line. The Food Service monopoly, being ubiquitous, even effects those who would have a sub or a slice of pizza. If Food Service buys sauce, cheese and cold cuts by the truckload and, in our name, why shouldn’t we be entitled to the savings? And, while we are eating our pizza, should we decide to use one of the pin-ball machines, we will pay a quarter for the privilege of playing two games. > There is no reason for this. With over 3000 students at EUicott alone, surely we could have our own machines with a token charge of a nickel to pay for maintenance. I do not propose this as “the solution” but rather as a motivation for thought. The other method of separating student from My roommate, being a chem major, was required to go out and purchase one “HGS Molecular Model Kit” which upon superficial inspection, resembled a tinkertoy set, and a small one . at that. The unfortunate part was that this “tinkertoy set” cost him almost $8. I had a similarly shocking experience when I went to purchase two paperback French books, only to find that together they came to almost $ 19. Again, why does this have to beWhat is the purpose of having a Bookstore in Norton if it is going to stock the same books as Buffalo Text and, at essentially the same price?More importantly, why isn’t anyone else asking these questions? Another sore spot is the Ellicott Complex. To some people, it seems as if the outside of the buddings, their locations and the roads that connect them, took precedence over the inside of the buddings. It should not come as a revelation to the person who specified brick walk-ways that perhaps students would have preferred something more basic, such as a greater number of bathrooms. If one accepts the fact that we are here for an education then an appropriate question might be just how many teachers could be hired for $71 million. What it all comes down to is change. When something doesn’t work, we either change it or get rid of it. What we cannot let out of our sight is the3 fact that the sole purpose of this, or any, University is to educate us. Our job is to make sure that this is accomplished, both inside the classroom and out. When we find that the very institution with which we have entrusted our education has turned around and started to take advantage of us, we must ascertain what steps are to be taken. One obvious thing is that we are going to get into trouble if we let someone whose business is based upon profit supply us. To this end, anything that can feasibly be run by students, should be. That includes bookstores, grocery stores, food service and snack bars. If it turns out that by buying a hundred gallons of tomato sauce, it is possible to make a pizza that costs a buck and a half, let’s sell it for a buck and a half. Should we find that the profit margins on the books and the food were paying the rent on the J. Ellicott complex, let’s begin to as who authorized the building of a campus so outlandish in price as to require that students pay for it everytime we drop a quarter and a nickel into the Coke machine. This is our school. There is no sense in being intimidated by anyone connected with it if we realize that the only reason he is there is because we arc.

There are plenty of perfectly functional words in English already. Compounding prefix upon prefix, or creating new combinations, too often seems like an unnecessary complication of the language. It only tends to obscure. That is not only unaesthetic, it’s dangerous. Please, you’re getting too dyslogical. De-proliferate. Choreography for naught To the Editor. We are writing to express our anger concerning the management of dance repertory class headed by Joan Verdun. The object of this class was originally to put on a student-run dance concert, previewing the student’s own works. We-found out the hard way that this was not so. Firstly, two of the dance pieces in the concert are being performed solely by the dance faculty, unfairly forcing students to compete performance-wise with their teachers. Also, the one piece Ms. Verdun choreographed for the students monopolized the entire four hours a week alotted to the repertory class for. the whole semester. This forced the dancers and student choreographers, ourselves included, to do all the choreography, teaching and rehearsing on our own time. We worked hard for four months, four hours daily to choreograph and teach our piece, plus laying out the money for costume material, and tapes and records for the soundtrack, for which we have never been reimbursed. No guidance was given to us by the head of the dance repertory class, until the last three weeks and we hesitate calling that guidance. Ms. Verdun saw our entire piece three times. The first two times, she gave us sporadic corrections, all of which we implemented. The final time, the week before the concert, Ms. Verdun decided that our piece would have to be cut in half, because suddenly she realized it was too long (12 minutes). We found this very unfair because of the magnitude of such change would require rechoreographing and reteaching the piece which would not have allowed enough time to rehearse the revised piece to performance level. We also felt that cutting our piece would effectively destroy its content and meaning. Our piece concerns the struggles of the working class. In the first half, where different work our dancers portray movements to a soundtrack we made, Ms. Verdun was greatly amused, contrary to our feeling that working class struggles are not “amusing.” She subsequently told us to cut the first half out because it was her feeling as an “experienced” choreographer that the audience would laugh at our portrayal of the working class. At our refusal to cut the piece in half, Ms. Verdun dropped our piece from the concert, and expelled us from the dance repertory class. We feel that her behavior throughout the semester was unprofessional and we would like to warn students who have considered taking dance repertory to think twice before committing themselves to a class that can only lead to frustration and aggravation.

Trucks, so big they make the American variety look like wheelbarrows, are rumbling from Iran to Jordan, but not without some very strange problems. Size is one problem. One company operates a fleet of 400 container trucks, each having a capacity of 23 tons. Another owns six gigantic units which run on 264 wheels, carrying 860 tons each on its 12 foot wide, 335 foot long trailers. Four tractors power this behemoth and the drivers communicate by radio so they can brake simultaneously. The roads also cause problems for the inexperienced drivers. Rigs often overturn on mountain passes and one driver recently had to drive 10 miles in reverse when he inadvertantly took a wrong turn on a dead end road. Another driver, cruising easily through Turkey, accidently turned a young child into a grease spot after the youngster darted in front of his semi. The driver- stopped and an angry crowd promptly seized him and lopped off his head. - room and nine Italian tiled bathrooms, as well as nine fireplaces. — Cleaning Up the World’s Tallest Junk Heap Nick Langtoii and five of his buddies from Evergreen College in Olympia, Washington are getting high on junk. 29,028 feet high to be exact, and it’s mostly work and no fun. The six are cleaning up Mt. Everest, which has been turned into “the highest junkyard in the world” by sloppy mountaineers. “You can hardly take a step up hefe without encountering garbage,” complains Langton, looking out from his 18,000 base camp where he and his friends have already disposed of 3,000 pounds of trash. Several tons of trash remain to be cleared, according to the Evergreen Six. “This is one of man’s great injustices to nature,” Langton says.

Orientation Director John Buerk said that while orientation will be basically unchanged, “more emphasis will be placed on students in the health and health related fields, natural sciences, mathematics and' engineering. They will be in direct contact with faculty representing those areas.” Unlike other programs ihit by budget cutbacks. Summer Orientation, which pays for itself through the orientation fee charged to each student who attends, faces no financial worries. Guerk said this year’s budget will be $60,000, none of which comes fyom the _ Although the Drug Abuse Law Enforcement Agency has been disbanded, it hasn’t been forgotten. At least not by John Meiners of Edwardsville, 111. Three years ago Meiners was arrested by Drug Abuse agents, even though they didn’t have warrants for the raid on his house or for his arrest. Officers later held him for 77 hours without charge. Meiners also claimed that some of his property was damaged or stolen during the raid. On April 16, Meindrs was ordered by an Illinois court to pay each of the eight raiding officers $15,000. Meiners, they said, libeled them in a press conference at which he discussed the raid. Spaced out Profs find New Frontier How do you deal with extraterrestrial travelers? Calmly, according to a Florida sociologist. Dr. Richard Yinger has given students at Palm Beach Junior College this and other advice during the course he teaches in the study of the social forms of life on other planets. Remember not to panic, Yinger claims, and the space beings may stick around to teach us a thing or two. There’s a lot to learn, since beings that could travel to earth are also likely to have moved beyond wars and violence, he says. Space visitors would also be likely to have developed a high degree of technological expertise, the sociologist says, enabling them “to survive the tremendous energy systems they would need to move about in space.” Yinger isn’t alone in exploring how earthlings will relate to space travelers. A full credit course at Northwestern University offers students the chance to study how to identify strange discs in the sky, evaluate alleged human contact with space travelers, and sight space-craft in daylight. The Northwestern coursy is taught by Dr. J. Hynek, an astronomy professor and former consultant to the Air Force’s official UFO study. — University budget. Included on the orientation staff will be ten undergraduate student aides who will live in the dormitories with the freshmen and help them with any problems or questions they might have. Each aide receives seven weeks of training in academics, housing, registration and communications to prepare him/her for the job. In addition to registering for fall courses, the most important aspect of orientation, the daytime program will include workshops for commuters and resident students, and an introduction to the campus libraries, and the Colleges. Planned evening programs include a coffeehouse and square dance. Various student organizations and clubs will set up tables in Norton Hall so that representatives can speak personally to new students. Buerk feels one of the problems facing orientation is designing an acceptable program for transfer students. “Transfer students are very difficult to orient because they consider themselves established college students,” he said. , The Rich Get Richer, the Poor Pay Taxes Not all Americans go info a state of financial shock for six months after tax time.

Rubin Sportt Editor We live in a busy, fast-paced world where news breaks any place, any time. Carter, Jackson, Ford, et al. make news regularly in their bids for the presidency. Hockey violence and the Stanley Cup Playoffs are coming to a head. New shows are opening on Broadway. Fires, crimes, wars, discoveries, and achievements take place every day. Some are minor, others earth-shattering. But every first Saturday in May, one event occurs that always makes the newscasts and arouses interest from people across It’s the Kentucky America. arid it takes place Derby, tomorrow at about 5:40 p.m. at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Louisville can’t be described in a million words as well as it can by one visit. TV doesn’t tell all Sure, ABC will do an hour-long show with Howard Co-sell and the newspaper will tell how Honest Pleasure and Bold Forbes bumped down the baCkst retch, but actually being in without attendance to witness the proceedings, much of the spectacle of the afternoon is lost. The mad rush of spectators onto the infield early in the day, the changing odds as people wager millions of dollars on a race that lasts for less than two minutes, the hush of the crowd prior to the race these things cannot be appreciated from in front of an RCA XL 100. is Derby The Kentucky Kentucky. everybody should Anything that can be said something of experience at least once. Many this granddaddy about thoroughbred racing already has people vow never to return been by politicians, authors, because of the crowds, the entertainers, and horse people expense, and the noise, but all throughout the race’s 102 year people who pass under the twin history. The color, setting, and spires on Derby Day acknowledge the atmosphere which pervade that they have been part of a great • / — sporting event. Sure, ABC will do an hour-long show with Howard Cosell and the Omaha. Chateaugay. Hoop Jr. Count Fleet. Secretariat. Even the names of these past Derby winners are noble. Yet it is not so much the horses or the money or the prestige associated with the Derby that makes it great. In reality, it is the tradition and ceremony which surround the Derby that put it head and shoulders above other big races. The Derby marks the peak of the celebration for the city of Louisville. This quiet, southern city blossoms for only one week out of every 52. But when Derby time does come, the city bursts ceremonies, open with and excitement. The Derby is Louisville. in inescapable Everyone takes time off from their daily routines to celebrate the Derby. This escitement is what the Derby really is, the horse race is merely a catalyst. It’s just too bad can’t go. that everybody Bulls win twin bill with strong hitting by John H. Reiss Staff Writer Spectrum The baseball Bulls extended their modest winning streak to three with a doubleheader sweep over the University of Pittsburgh on Wednesday. Buffalo won a tight opener, 4—3, and then crushed the Panthers in the nightcap, 9—1. The twin bill victory lifted Buffalo’s overall record to 11—12. In game number 1 the Bulls jumped on Pittsburgh starter Don Kennedy for three first inning runs. Rightfielder Bob Amico led off with a walk, stole second and scored on Jim Mary’s triple. One out later, Mike Dixon drove Mary home with a single. Dixon’s pinch runner Mike Burg then stole second, went to third on a throwing error by the catcher and scored on John White’s single. Buffalo scored what proved to be the winning run in the fourth. John Mineo walked, went to second on a balk, took third on another error by catcher Don DeStrout and scored on Maico’s single. While the Bulls’ hitters were supplying the offense, Buffalo righthander tossed five innings of shutout ball, giving up only two hits while striking out seven. A few years ago Reidel was considered to be Buffalo’s ace. Injuries, though, got the best of him and for the past two years, Reidel has been a struggling pitcher. However, he has rebounded very well this season and once again has found his way at the top of the Bulls’ pitching staff. His E.R.A. was fourth in the EC AC before Wednesday’s game. Sixth inning woes Pitcher Bill Lasky, a senior, began the sixth inning for Buffalo and got into immediate trouble. He gave up a double, a walk and a single before giving way to reliever Rick Kobel with a two ball two strike count on the hitter. Kobel completed the strikeout but then got the Bulls into deeper trouble by issuing a walk and a single.. He was saved when rightfielder Bob Amico grabbed the base hit and fired the ball home. Amico’s throw was slightly off the mark so catcher Mike Dixon went up the first base line to take the throw and then made a spectacular head first drive at the plate to nab the Panthers’ Nania as he slid home.

Dean to the rescue It turned out to be the play of the game because Pittsburgh scored again in the seventh and final inning. With one out and a man on first, DeStout hit a tremendous triple to centerfield scoring one run and putting the tying run on third. Mike Dean, generally a starter, relieved Kobe! and did an excellent job of putting out the fire. He induced the two Panther hitters he faced to slap harmless ground balls to third and second, both of which were handled cleanly for the final outs of the game. The nightcap was a laugher for both the Bulls and the sparse crowd that attended the game at Peelle Field. Pittsburgh picked up its only run in the seventh off reliever John Buszka, but the game had already been decided. The Bulls scored singleton runs in the third and fourth innings, the second run coming on John Kidd’s home run to left field. Buffalo then exploded for seven runs in the fifth. In that outburst, Mike Dixon drove in a run with a single to give him a share of the University seasonal RBI record.

Lock port - As the year draws to a close, I feel it is time to look back at the Sports Department of The Spectrum during 1975-76. We weren’t bad at all. We expanded intramural coverage, and ran considerably more commentary than has been published in the past. We made up with the Gark Hall hierarchy without losing face. Sports Quiz made its debut, and the Wizard of Odds had his best and most controversial season in history. Of course, not all our plans were successful. The picture of John Buszka as Athlete of the Week a few weeks ago strangely resembled Marc Scarcello. Our interview series flopped. I’m sure there were other flaws, but they have mysteriously seemed to skip my mind just now. Unfortunately, despite our efforts, there were some stories which slipped by, and we regret that we didn’t pass them on. For instance, during intersession, maintenance forgot to feed the Ketterpillar (Bubble). This made it very mad, and in retaliation, it picked itself up and took a bite out of Ellicott. Fortunately, indigestion set in and the Ketterpillar has remained lethargic since. We failed to acknowledge perhaps the most impressive athletic achievement of the year that Bert Black set a record by attending 37 meetings in a single 24 hour period. Another biggie we muffed was the big Hayes Hall University squirrel demonstration last fall. To be an official University squirrel, the animal must be stamped “approved” by an authorized member of the Buffalo Animal Rights Committee. Upon official approval, the squirrel is confined to collecting nuts only on SUNY Buffalo campuses. The squirrel is free to ride the buses between campuses, and has authority to spend the winter months in either Parker basement or Suite 109 Lehman. Last fall, 30 University squirrels streaked across the front lawn of Hayes, busted down the doors, mooned the offices of Drs. Ketter and Somit, and continued out the back and up the trees behind Hayes. They were protesting the “Do Not Feed the Squirrels” signs on campus. Once in the trees they chanted in unison, “We like nuts, but in your case we’ll make an exception.” I also wish to acknowledge the vast improvement in a 1976 intramural softball entry, namely Ziggy Stardust. Only 1-1 last year, Ziggy, as it is affectionately known, has improved to a 7-2 record overall including a perfect 2-0 mark in league play. Ziggy has been sparked by the clutch hitting of Spectrum Staff Writer John Reiss, who despite being a dead pull hitter, has had many key hits this season. The coaching of yours truly has also been invaluable. Aggressive coaching on the lines at third has led to key runs in many games this year for Ziggy. But seriously, this is my last stand. Paige Miller, my extremely competent assistant will take over sports next fall. He, along with a fine staff, will undoubtedly improve and expand an already respectible Sports Department. I believe that The Spectrum sports has had a rewarding year, but there’s an easy way to tell for sure. If this column or any sports story in The Spectrum this past year has affected you, then the year has been a success. If we’ve made you laugh, or if we’ve made you angry, or interested, or cynical, or aware, then we’ve done our job because that is what this column and this newspaper are all about.
